We 0:03:09.440 --> 0:03:14.239 talked about the injuries on yesterday and Ceedee Lamb, Trayvon Diggs, 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:17.560 Daveon Clowney, Tyler guy In, those being the headliners. Jerry 0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:19.600 Jones spoke with one O five three the fan today, 0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:23.200 didn't offer much insight into either of them, just basically 0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:25.720 saying if he can get you know two of those 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:29.440 three being guy In, Ceedee Lamb and Jenevion Clowney, that 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:31.440 cowboys will be in a good. 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:34.200 Spot forthcoming written by Tommy. 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:37.520 I feel that's obvious. So we don't know where they 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:40.560 are right now versus where they were yesterday. But as 0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:43.960 of yesterday, just to reiterate, Ceedee Lamb has made progress 0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:46.320 within the concussion protocol. He still needs to pass his 0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:51.560 benchmarks in order to clear that. Jenevion Clowney is expected 0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:56.160 to take the field against the Minnesota Vikings. Yeah, Cowboys 0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:59.680 missed him in Detroit. Absolutely, Yes, Tyler Guy is on 0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:03.000 right to return against the Minnesota Vikings as well. 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:05.520 Very nice. 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:08.680 So that's that's where they are with the injury front now. 0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:13.360 Trayvon Diggs another part of the injury front. Jerry Jones 0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:15.040 said to One on five through the Fan this morning 0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:17.920 that he turns out he was a game time decision 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.840 last week against the Detroit Lions. So that tells you 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.800 just how close they were to getting Trayvon Diggs activated 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:26.400 from injured reserve. That tells me that you know, he 0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:29.480 has an equal or better chance of that occurring this 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.600 week against the Vikings. Now the Cowboys are going to 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:34.600 look closely at him during practice. I did find it 0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:38.520 interesting that Jerry Jones said there are quote unquote a 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:41.320 lot of eyes on Trayvon Diggs in practice this week, 0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:45.920 and then he immediately kind of softened that by saying 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:50.599 not in a negative way, little fly fishing. 0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:53.720 Kind of heard you there, Okay, why fly fishing? Fly fishing? 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:55.080 You throw it out there, you bring it right back, 0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:55.600 bring it back. 0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:57.279 We kind of heard you there, Jair. 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:00.800 So when's the last time you went fly fish? 0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:01.120 Never? 0:05:01.440 --> 0:05:04.000 You've never been fly standing and bodies of water that 0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:07.320 I can't see in. It's not a thing that people 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:08.159 like me get into. 0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:11.120 You're in the wrong place. You gotta find like a 0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:14.280 nice like creek or something, but see the bottom. 0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:16.640 And you've never seen a video of anybody like me 0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:19.520 standing in a body of water fish and getting attacked 0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:20.120 by a catfish. 0:05:20.880 --> 0:05:23.360 You're not getting attacked by a catfish. If anything, your 0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:26.480 ankles get not on by like an alligator go roading. 0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:27.880 Have you seen those teeth? 0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:28.120 Bro? 0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:30.400 Would you feel it happened to me? I used to 0:05:30.440 --> 0:05:33.000 fly fish all the time. Oh yes, it's like one 0:05:33.040 --> 0:05:33.560 of my hobbits. 0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:35.200 You've been not on that now. 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:37.000 Here, Bro, you're standing in my ankles. 0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:38.240 I've never been. 0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:39.240 Would you try it? 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:39.640 No? 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:43.560 You know what, because I'm from coastal Georgia and water moccasins. 0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:43.560 Or of things. 0:05:43.600 --> 0:05:48.520 Yeah, like, why would I why why would I do that? 0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:48.960 I did? 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.360 There was one time as me and a buddy of mine, 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:54.000 and there was just a straight up rattlesnake or not 0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:57.040 a rattle, a copperhead that like swam in between us. 0:05:57.320 --> 0:05:58.520 I'm shooting up the whole pond. 0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:01.839 Oh yeah, it was legit. It was in Waco, of course, 0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:04.760 opper head. 0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:06.000 I don't know if it was. 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:06.839 I can't remember if it was. 0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:08.160 A copper but it was. 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:12.200 I was gonna say. All you would have seen me 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:17.040 is that that cartoon silhouette smoke where I used to be. 0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:20.800 Y'all would have thought it was Jesus. I definitely would 0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:21.440 have been walking on water. 0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:29.040 So yeah, So Jerry Jones said, a lot of eyes 0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:30.920 are on Trayvon Diggs. We'll see if he makes it 0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:33.920 back to the field this week and to kind of 0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:35.920 throw some some more chum in the water. 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:37.400 You know what did you do there? 0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:37.839 Yeah? 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:39.240 You caught that. 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:45.000 Regarding the linebacker situation, this is something that we've talked about. 0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:47.080 This is something that the family starting to pick up 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:50.000 on and kind of have a rally cry for and 0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:53.880 or against, depending on which side of that equation you're on. I, 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:57.400 for one, am on the side of what the hell 0:06:57.520 --> 0:06:59.960 is Logan Wilson not playing playing? 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:02.240 Is it a calf? 0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:03.200 No? 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:04.040 No, no no. 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:08.440 So Jerry Jones spoke to it, and I was actually 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:14.360 pleasantly surprised to see how how noncommittal he was to Yeah, 0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:16.840 he was noncommittal to the K nine equation. So they 0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:18.440 asked him straight up, they said, you know what's going 0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:20.880 on with Logan Wilson? Could it be a ramp up thing? 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:26.120 So Jery he colored his commentary with it being a 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:28.360 ramp up, But if you listen, go back and listen 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:31.520 to what he was actually saying, it sounds like he's 0:07:31.560 --> 0:07:34.280 saying we're going to expected to see more Logan Wilson 0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:36.400 as early as this week. Because he kept saying that 0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:39.200 that's what you brought Logan Wilson in for, was competition 0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.239 to compete with Kender Mary, to compete at that spot. 0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:43.840 And then he said, well, you know it's his fourth 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:46.920 game ramp up. Okay cool. So all of that being said, 0:07:47.160 --> 0:07:51.640 I ah expect to see more Logan Wilson this week. 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:55.560 So do you truly believe that it was just a 0:07:55.760 --> 0:08:00.160 mental capacity thing in terms of absorbing the actual. 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.320 I mean, no, he was the green dot on his 0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:05.680 first game against the Raiders and played the majority of 0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:06.520 this just trying to do. 0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:12.160 A process of he's he's healthy, he's healthy, and he understands. 0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:15.000 Yeah, I understand that. 0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:17.320 But I'll just have guys politics. 0:08:17.600 --> 0:08:22.440 May I for one moment, just, uh does fluce? What 0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:25.560 is flu seeing from Kenneth Murray that you were not 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:27.840 seeing out of Logan Wilson in his limited time on 0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:31.000 the field, even James for. 0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:33.120 That, Why is the sun not covered in ice? I 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:38.000 don't know, like that not even to be because I'm 0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:40.439 just being playful with Josh, of course, but seriously, like 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:46.400 I don't know, like objectively speaking, there have been pockets 0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:50.319 of games where Murray has played well. Pockets though, right so, 0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:53.040 like a couple of weeks or so ago, the PBu 0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:55.200 that created the tip drill interception, things like that. There 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:59.040 have been pockets right before the most part, if you 0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:01.319 look at the body of his work, and not to 0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:02.920 beat up on the guy, but let's just talk the 0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:04.920 science of it. If you're looking at the body of 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:09.160 work in the Cowboys uniform, it's just been very not great. Okay, 0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:11.880 on the whole, there have been pockets of good football, 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:14.120 but for the most part, it's like, no, no, no, 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:16.199 that's why you went and got Logan Wilson in the 0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:19.120 first place, because Kenneth Murray had been playing up to standard. 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:21.079 Because keep in mind, you traded for Murray as well, 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:23.680 so if Murray had been playing up the standard, also 0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:26.600 knowing he has to deliverage of being a guy who 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:29.840 you traded for, then you're not trading for Logan Wilson 0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:32.079 at the trade deadline. But you went and did that, 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:36.640 So then to make that move, and three games in 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:39.840 be asking the question, why is Logan Wilson not seeing 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:42.120 the reps that he needs to see. I don't have 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:46.000 a logical, legitimate answer for that. I just don't three 0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:48.600 games plus other than the week that you other than 0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:52.120 coaches have their guys. Yeah, which is to say, if 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:55.000 Jack Samborn wasn't on U wasn't dealing with the groin 0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:59.960 injury Insideline probably still be seeing some Jack Samborne other. 0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:03.080 But do you think having a mini buy in between 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:05.480 all of that, And of course Jerry Jones now saying 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:07.760 that we're probably going to see more Logan Wilson having 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:10.800 a mini buy buy in between, that makes it a 0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:13.000 little more understandable that they wanted to give him more 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:15.000 time to understand the defense. 0:10:15.240 --> 0:10:16.760 Did Quentina Williams get a ramp up? 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:17.040 No? 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:21.000 Okay, but does it does he need one necessarily at 0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:21.480 that position? 0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:25.880 But is Logan Wilson and one of the green flags 0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:28.679 for Logan Wilson coming in and a saying that he 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:30.839 should be able to get get kind of thrown out 0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:34.720 there exactly high football like you, and he's a veteran. 0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:39.080 Yeah, it's been how many games? Three? Three games plus 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.400 the week? Yeah, so four weeks? 0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:44.199 So why why is the sun not covered? 0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:46.440 But you had three games in eleven days during that time. 0:10:46.600 --> 0:10:49.880 I mean, I think part of that is I think 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:53.520 what bad timing exactly for for all. 0:10:53.400 --> 0:10:54.360 Of that to kind of go down. 0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:57.360 But this bye, if we're expecting to see more of 0:10:57.440 --> 0:10:59.560 them than I'm like, all right, well, I'm. 0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:00.120 Kind of with you. 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:03.160 I'm not freaking out for not I'm not freaking out 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:03.800 right now. 0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:08.880 It's the question, though, it's it's definitely it's a quiable question. Sure, 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:10.679 So that's what I'm glad you said it. 0:11:10.720 --> 0:11:14.480 But I don't think it's something to panic about this second, Like, 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:15.280 but you have to. 0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:20.400 Fans and analysts who are demanding clarity. Are right in 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:23.160 doing so? Is all I'm saying, Oh yeah, we're justified 0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:25.880 in the manny clarity. If it were a situation where 0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:28.920 they were ramping up a guy like Quinn Williams, then 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:32.480 then it'd be like, oh, well, okay, what are we doing? 0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:35.719 This is not that, but this is most certainly at 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:38.599 least a can we get an actual answer as to 0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:39.800 why this is the case. 0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:43.040 And the answer you got today was no, no, it's 0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:43.640 not so. 0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:45.440 Again, this isn't to beat up on Kenneth Murray as 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:47.560 much as it is to say you traded for Logan Wilson. 0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:50.319 Why is Logan Wilson not and you traded for him 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:51.640 to compete with Kenneth Murray. 0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:56.400 You also drafted a couple of linebackers too, Chamar and Marris. 0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:58.040 I don't get two stars. 0:11:58.800 --> 0:12:00.360 They got Marris chained to a radiot. 0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:02.839 You know what radio, because he's a dog. 0:12:04.600 --> 0:12:07.120 You talk about pockets of good and pockets are bad. 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.600 Though the majority of the pockets of good of Marit 0:12:09.760 --> 0:12:12.360 has been on special teams, and the majority of the pockets. 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:14.080 Are bad have been on defense. And you know what's 0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:16.000 crazy that he hasn't played. 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:18.719 The majority of the pockets on good last year we're 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:26.880 on defense. Yeah, then the question becomes, what's the disconnect 0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:31.360 between mars and system. That's the question. Yeah, there's something, 0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:33.600 there's something not not jobbing there. 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:39.640 So coy Isaiah, Okay, eating your your fruit. 0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:40.400 And say that. 0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:43.640 Finish with BlackBerry sir. 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:45.320 Yeah, why are you eating in the middle of the show. 0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:47.679 Because I am a healthy guy. Oh my god, my 0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:48.680 body is my temple. 0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:52.320 I have development. 0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:59.280 Position of coaches have a responsibility oftentimes analysts and fans. 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:01.840 We look direct at the simply the athlete. 0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:05.760 Not enough emphasis is being placed on the development of 0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:10.160 players by position coaches. It's something I speak on frequently. 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:17.800 You said, we can't just continue to not see productivity 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:23.880 out of specific position groups and not have accountability had 0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:26.959 for the coaches that are responsible for those position groups. 0:13:29.120 --> 0:13:31.960 So for the linebackers, who would be Dave Borganzi, he's 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:36.800 the linebackers coach. Should there be a conversation about Borganzi? 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:40.199 Not necessarily like moving on from but accountability. 0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:41.800 Yeah, like this. 0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:46.280 You had a Damon Clark, we drafted, they figured it 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:49.880 didn't work out. Damon walks out. We're sitting here talking 0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:54.320 about Marristle. If we drafted, saying that he's not clicking 0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:58.280 the linebacker position, not seeing the field. Jamar James, we 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:01.760 drafted not seeing him on the field the way in 0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:04.120 which we were talking about we continue talking about other veterans. 0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:08.480 Usually when you draft guys, you want to see them 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:12.880 on the field. But those are three guys, not all 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:14.760 in the same category, but all three guys that have 0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:17.599 been invested in in terms of draft equity that we 0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:21.520 haven't seen the productivity that you we would like to see. 0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:24.200 I can't say that completely for Shamar James. I really 0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:27.960 liked him as a player right now. Yeah, I understand 0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:29.640 he's a rookie too, for sure, And obviously these other 0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:31.160 guys are have a couple more years. 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:31.400 On their route. 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:35.720 But in totalities are guys that we drafted and then 0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:39.160 did not see the development out of to date today. 0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:41.120 Regardless of the timeline, whether you're a rookie or whether 0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:43.360 you're a damon right into your third fourth year, whatever 0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:47.000 it is, I have questions about the development of particular 0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:47.800 position groups. 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:47.960 Right. 0:14:48.000 --> 0:14:50.760 We said the same thing about defensive line. Right, there's 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:54.600 individuals that we drafted and it weren't developed, right, So, 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:58.920 like there has to be a responsibility placed on these coaches, 0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:04.280 not calling him matam Well, they equally deserve the scrutiny 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:07.720 or the analysis that we place on the players. If 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.720 you're not seeing a consistent productivity out of the whole group, 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:13.600 it can't just always be the players. 0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:15.880 And I would put a lot of that, hold on, 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:17.760 hold on, hold on. I would put a lot of 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:18.040 that on. 0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:21.800 The previous coaching staff, not the current coaching staff do too, 0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:24.920 especially with when it comes to the defensive line that 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:29.360 you're talking about. Also with Maris Leafel, even though he 0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:31.080 did ball out and he played well and he was 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:34.280 able to develop, and then you're talking about what was 0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:36.360 the third name we're thinking of, Demon Clark, that was 0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:38.720 the other guy you were talking about. I put that 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:41.480 more on the previous coaching staff up until this point. 0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:44.040 Maris is the one question mark that I have just 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:46.080 because of the scheme and the flip of a scheme, 0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:49.160 and he didn't forget to play defense year exactly. So 0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:51.840 I think he just probably doesn't fit the same way 0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:55.000 that we thought he would with coach Ibra Flus or 0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:58.320 with Borganzi or whatever it may be. I don't necessarily 0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:02.120 put all of that lack of development on this coaching 0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:03.680 staff because they've been here just as long as a 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:05.840 lot of these players have the same thing with I mean, 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:08.360 Shamar James and Dave Burgonzi have been here with the 0:16:08.440 --> 0:16:10.840 exception of about two months, the same amount of time. 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:12.600 So it's gonna take a little bit of time for 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:13.720 those guys to develop. 0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:17.640 You're not developing Kenneth Murray, You're not developing Jack Sambourne. 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:20.480 Those are guys that you still need, They still need help. 0:16:20.760 --> 0:16:22.480 I agree that what I'm saying, So when we look 0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:24.400 at the group as a whole, that's what I'm saying. 0:16:25.360 --> 0:16:26.040 Both staffs. 0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:29.400 All I'm saying is that it's not all on one person, 0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:32.120 not not on one That's exactly my point, right, it's 0:16:32.160 --> 0:16:33.040 not all on one staff. 0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:35.400 But we've had two staffs with Damon didn't work out. 0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:37.920 We've had two staffs with Maryor's Lee foul doesn't seem 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:39.800 to be working because he doesn't fit the scheme. 0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:42.760 Now we've had one staff with Shamar James. He's not 0:16:42.800 --> 0:16:43.320 on the field, in. 0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:45.120 Which we hope they continue to find other people to 0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:48.920 put in front of him. They trade for Murray not 0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:51.760 working out the way people thought. They trade for Logan Wilson. 0:16:52.000 --> 0:16:52.640 We're still waiting. 0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:56.560 So I'm there's a trend here, Yeah, there's a trend. 0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:58.560 I can't I can't help but identify the trend. 0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:01.680 It's either likely development, or they don't fit the scheme, 0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:06.600 or they need more time, like there's something somebody clicking. 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:09.320 Another big part of that is that the defensive scheme changed. 0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:11.240 You only have two linebackers on the field at a 0:17:11.320 --> 0:17:14.440 time now, and are you taking to Marvin overshon off 0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:16.879 the field right now? The only question mark right now 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:20.920 is Kenneth Murray and his the the amount of time 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:22.680 that they're giving him on the field and the fact 0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:25.400 that he's not necessarily he's reading the play just fine, 0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:28.480 but he's getting himself out of position. So why not 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:31.600 then supplement those reps for Logan Wilson, a guy that 0:17:31.640 --> 0:17:35.639 you traded for, but like you traded for, Maris is 0:17:35.680 --> 0:17:36.000 right there? 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:40.760 Here's this year you overshown. Okay, you're not taking Overshow 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:44.160 off the field? No, you're not, absolutely not. Has Overshown 0:17:44.200 --> 0:17:45.160 played the entire season? 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:45.480 No? 0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:45.760 No? 0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:48.400 Okay, Before Overshown came back, we having the same question 0:17:48.520 --> 0:17:51.920 mark about why san Born And yes, okay, so you 0:17:52.040 --> 0:17:54.399 mean to tell me that. Let me put it this way, 0:17:54.480 --> 0:17:58.480 I forgot there's a common denominator. Yes, be it overshown 0:17:58.560 --> 0:18:05.199 available or uneva. Be it Sanborn versus Meyrist or Kenneth 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:10.040 Murray versus Logan Wilson versus Merrist. Yeah, Chamar James, there's 0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:12.960 a coming thrid for sure this entire season. Yes, And 0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:16.560 the question is what's the thrid? Yeah, I'd love to 0:18:16.600 --> 0:18:19.240 hear fans weighing only it's true. I mean, who would 0:18:19.240 --> 0:18:20.200 you start a linebacker? 0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:23.520 That's the question. No, that ain't that's the question. The question. 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:26.160 The question is why is it? Why is that nobody's clicking? 0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:27.040 Yeah, that's the question. 0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:29.200 Why is it that we have an excuse for every 0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:31.760 single person that we just listed. When we drafted two 0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:33.919 guys over the last two years at that position, right, 0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:36.320 or is it three three guys, whatever it might be, 0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:39.520 we trade it for two and we signed one free agent, 0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:41.560 and none of them are panning out the way you 0:18:41.960 --> 0:18:42.200 want it. 0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:44.680 None. But it's the players. 0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:47.159 And now you've got some guys up front that can 0:18:47.640 --> 0:18:49.840 can hold up their blocks and do their thing at 0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:51.600 the same time too. All Right, we got to take 0:18:51.600 --> 0:18:53.440 our first break when we come back. We've got ten 0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:55.600 calls to get to We're gonna.

I mean, I feel like they didn't play 0:22:22.320 --> 0:22:24.800 aggressive as they did when they played the Chiefs. I mean, 0:22:24.880 --> 0:22:27.720 I know, it's the NFL, it's as we talk about 0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:30.560 it every week, it's week league. It's just just, you know, 0:22:30.640 --> 0:22:32.879 we I don't know, we just SI. I don't know 0:22:32.920 --> 0:22:35.720 what it was. I don't know what it was. Everybody, everybody. 0:22:36.040 --> 0:22:39.280 We didn't play well. Defense, I mean, offense didn't do 0:22:39.520 --> 0:22:42.200 too bad, but they you know, I mean Dak obviously 0:22:42.280 --> 0:22:44.639 didn't have the time that he normally has. It's just 0:22:44.760 --> 0:22:46.920 but the defense, they just they didn't play well. 0:22:47.760 --> 0:22:51.320 I agree, Mike, appreciate the call as always, kind of 0:22:51.560 --> 0:22:55.960 just outlined what we talked about on Friday, talk about 0:22:56.000 --> 0:22:58.360 how the offense didn't play well, defense didn't play well, 0:22:58.400 --> 0:23:01.720 special teams didn't play well. It was an uncomplimentary football, 0:23:01.920 --> 0:23:04.080 uncomplimentary at its finance. 0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:05.920 Is that a word? Yeah? 0:23:06.200 --> 0:23:06.359 Is it? 0:23:07.400 --> 0:23:08.159 Don't you google it? 0:23:08.240 --> 0:23:09.520 Cut I probably did. 0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:10.240 Liquidity. 0:23:10.400 --> 0:23:13.040 Yeah, liquidity is a word.

I am in Eagles territory, 0:23:28.560 --> 0:23:30.200 so I have to do this stuff all the time. 0:23:32.000 --> 0:23:33.840 I just want to say, you guys have the best 0:23:33.920 --> 0:23:36.159 well rounded show and I love it. Thank you so 0:23:36.240 --> 0:23:39.080 much for all you do. Uh Isaiah, Super proud of 0:23:39.080 --> 0:23:40.399 you man. I've been watching you for a long time. 0:23:40.480 --> 0:23:41.159 Brother, appreciate it. 0:23:42.200 --> 0:23:45.479 Yes, sir, I just want to say so no Ce, 0:23:45.760 --> 0:23:48.639 Like space is cold, the sun is hot. But I 0:23:48.760 --> 0:23:51.359 want to know can the Cowboys be that new clear 0:23:51.520 --> 0:23:53.440 giant to make it to the playoffs? 0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:54.480 Do you still believe? 0:23:55.040 --> 0:23:56.520 Love you guys, I'll talk to you later. 0:23:56.800 --> 0:23:58.399 Good question there, Jason. 0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:00.720 Do you believe the Cowboys? 0:24:02.000 --> 0:24:06.280 Oh wait, do we hey avert your eyes fandomly in 0:24:06.359 --> 0:24:08.200 the chat, we're gonna say the P word. 0:24:08.520 --> 0:24:09.119 Oh gosh. 0:24:09.560 --> 0:24:14.440 Playoff to get there? You got a long way to go, 0:24:14.520 --> 0:24:17.639 got to win for it. But the math is working 0:24:17.720 --> 0:24:19.919 in your favor. The Chargers defeated the Eagle. 0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:25.600 Ky, No, I'm not being I'm saying to. 0:24:25.600 --> 0:24:28.600 Answer the caller. He wants to know if we believe 0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:31.399 the math, says you have a right to believe. You 0:24:31.960 --> 0:24:33.960 have four games left, you only one and a half 0:24:34.040 --> 0:24:37.399 games behind, You have two more divisional games left. The 0:24:37.480 --> 0:24:40.280 Eagles are falling apart. Looks like the Cowboys broke them 0:24:40.320 --> 0:24:41.679 with that twenty one point come back. 0:24:41.760 --> 0:24:42.000 I hope. 0:24:42.040 --> 0:24:44.520 So you have a reason to believe. The Cowboys just 0:24:44.600 --> 0:24:46.879 need to give you more of a reason to believe. 0:24:47.040 --> 0:24:48.560 Effect of this Sunday against the vik. 0:24:48.880 --> 0:24:49.520 I agree with you. 0:24:49.840 --> 0:24:52.440 I think there is reason to believe. But my gosh, 0:24:52.520 --> 0:24:53.800 there's a lot that has to go your way. You 0:24:53.880 --> 0:24:57.760 gotta win all four. Then the Eagles who play the Raiders, 0:24:57.880 --> 0:25:01.159 the Commanders, the Bills, and the Commanders again. The Bills 0:25:01.240 --> 0:25:04.520 game you could probably count as a possible Los Commanders. 0:25:05.400 --> 0:25:05.720 You need. 0:25:06.320 --> 0:25:09.399 You need the Eagles to slip up against one of 0:25:09.480 --> 0:25:13.679 the worst teams in the NFL on three different occasions, 0:25:13.760 --> 0:25:16.080 twice against the Commanders and once against the Raiders. 0:25:16.280 --> 0:25:18.639 Happen. So it needs to happen in order for you 0:25:18.720 --> 0:25:22.720 to even have a shot. The Commanders, and they just 0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:24.639 got they just got their butts. 0:25:24.359 --> 0:25:27.800 Whooped by the bike shutout who had a four game 0:25:27.880 --> 0:25:30.160 losing streak, and beat them thirty one in the matchups. 0:25:30.400 --> 0:25:31.640 So you're saying they need to bounce back. 0:25:32.080 --> 0:25:37.920 I would show I believe in commanders when it comes 0:25:37.960 --> 0:25:40.960 against the against the Eagles, I do. I love Vegas. 0:25:40.960 --> 0:25:42.359 Say no, you want it, you better believe in the 0:25:42.400 --> 0:25:44.720 Commanders when they played. That's fine, but I'm not gonna 0:25:44.760 --> 0:25:45.399 taint the class. 0:25:45.840 --> 0:25:51.480 Come on, let's go to Nebbie in Silver Spring, Maryland. 0:25:51.600 --> 0:25:54.680 We've got Nebbie on the line. Nebby knows ball. What's up, dude? 0:25:55.200 --> 0:26:02.280 Uh Hi, Kyle, how are you? Thank you so much 0:26:02.359 --> 0:26:06.359 for taking my call? Uh? And I just want to 0:26:06.400 --> 0:26:10.800 say that you guys took the word right out of 0:26:10.880 --> 0:26:16.879 my mouth because uh uh I was gonna say that 0:26:17.080 --> 0:26:20.159 I've been doing the math uh and. 0:26:22.119 --> 0:26:23.720 I I. 0:26:25.800 --> 0:26:25.919 Uh. 0:26:26.240 --> 0:26:31.520 In order for us to win the NFC East h 0:26:32.200 --> 0:26:38.520 I and make the playoffs, we have to win out 0:26:39.280 --> 0:26:48.520 uh I I uh and the Philadelphia Eagles have to 0:26:48.680 --> 0:26:57.320 lose uh uh two of their remaining four games. Uh 0:26:58.000 --> 0:27:07.720 uh uh. Not likely to happen, considering who the Eagles 0:27:07.800 --> 0:27:28.600 have remaining on their schedule. However, it is possible. We 0:27:28.920 --> 0:27:32.280 just have to take things one game at a time, 0:27:33.720 --> 0:27:40.400 take care of our own business, and the rest will 0:27:40.600 --> 0:27:46.840 take care of itself. Take care thank you so much 0:27:46.960 --> 0:27:53.320 for being patient with me. I have a great week Cowboys. 0:27:53.560 --> 0:27:58.320 Yes. I love the way he outlined that at the end, 0:27:58.359 --> 0:28:00.560 and it's kind of what Isaiah was talking to last week. 0:28:00.600 --> 0:28:02.560 As long as they take it one game at a time, 0:28:03.200 --> 0:28:05.320 I feel like they have a shot. They should win 0:28:05.440 --> 0:28:07.719 these games. The Chargers game is gonna be the tough, 0:28:07.760 --> 0:28:09.800 tough one. That's the toughest one remaining. 0:28:09.840 --> 0:28:11.200 They're familiar with those games and you're. 0:28:11.040 --> 0:28:13.280 Playing them at home, so you've got you've got that 0:28:13.359 --> 0:28:16.359 at your factor. I think you've got you've got a 0:28:16.600 --> 0:28:19.960 likelihood to win the final four games. You just need 0:28:20.119 --> 0:28:21.480 the Eagles to slip up twice. 0:28:21.600 --> 0:28:23.640 You just knew and it could happen. 0:28:23.720 --> 0:28:24.359 That's hard to do. 0:28:24.640 --> 0:28:28.359 But they have a championship caliber defense absolutely, like you 0:28:28.480 --> 0:28:29.840 saw it on display last ast night. 0:28:29.840 --> 0:28:31.760 They refuse to lose that game. 0:28:31.800 --> 0:28:35.480 They turned it over five times and twice in one play. 0:28:35.880 --> 0:28:39.360 Yeah, and gave shortfield to Justin Herbert, who's been one 0:28:39.360 --> 0:28:41.120 of the best quarterbacks and one of the best offenses 0:28:41.160 --> 0:28:44.240 in the Chargers all year. And they gave up nineteen 0:28:44.320 --> 0:28:47.800 points in regulation and lost in all seven sacks on 0:28:48.040 --> 0:28:51.320 Justin Herbert. Yeah, I agree with you. Just gonna be tough, 0:28:51.440 --> 0:28:54.840 and I we think in Marcus Mariota, and I mean, 0:28:54.920 --> 0:28:56.920 who knows if Jayden Daniels is still gonna play. 0:28:57.280 --> 0:28:59.760 And I don't want to burst our bubble heat because 0:29:00.120 --> 0:29:03.640 the Dallas Cowboys have elements of that. They can be 0:29:03.760 --> 0:29:07.320 a championship level offense, but you have not seen it 0:29:07.880 --> 0:29:10.520 consistently enough. And a big part of that is your 0:29:10.560 --> 0:29:13.040 offensive line. You have the weapons, there's no doubt about it, 0:29:13.160 --> 0:29:16.040 no doubt you have Dak Prescott, but can you afford 0:29:16.120 --> 0:29:20.200 him enough time against championship caliber defenses? Because if we're 0:29:20.240 --> 0:29:22.880 talking about getting into the playoffs, Okay, who you playing 0:29:22.920 --> 0:29:23.680 in the first round? 0:29:23.800 --> 0:29:25.920 Is it going to be Seattle? Is it going to 0:29:26.000 --> 0:29:27.440 be Green Bay? Again? 0:29:28.920 --> 0:29:31.240 The Rams like, are you telling me that you feel 0:29:31.320 --> 0:29:34.960 confident with this offensive line going up against those defensive lines? 0:29:35.080 --> 0:29:36.760 Say forty nine ers for ten dollars place? 0:29:36.920 --> 0:29:40.280 Yeah, I mean, yeah, that'd be great in a perfect world, 0:29:40.400 --> 0:29:44.360 But I don't know necessarily that you're built for that 0:29:44.600 --> 0:29:45.080 quite yet. 0:29:45.120 --> 0:29:47.600 I mean, going to the Eagles side of the equation, 0:29:48.600 --> 0:29:51.680 there's no denying their defense. No, I have a defense, 0:29:52.400 --> 0:29:54.200 but their offense can lose them. Three of these knicks, 0:29:54.240 --> 0:29:57.200 four games. Yeah, I agree, That's That's what I'm saying. 0:29:57.240 --> 0:29:59.040 So you make a good point. Yeah, say, well, can 0:29:59.280 --> 0:30:03.040 you think Mark Mariota, I don't know, doubtful, right, But 0:30:03.200 --> 0:30:05.800 flip the coin. Do you think Jalen Hurts and this 0:30:06.000 --> 0:30:08.520 offense can beat the Commander's defense? 0:30:08.600 --> 0:30:12.000 They I know, their offensive line is kind of a 0:30:12.080 --> 0:30:13.960 mess right now, but they at least have Barkley and 0:30:14.040 --> 0:30:16.760 they still have Davante Smith and A J. Brown can 0:30:16.800 --> 0:30:18.320 put up one hundred yards if they throw them the 0:30:18.320 --> 0:30:21.560 football they did throw Dallas Goddard. 0:30:20.880 --> 0:30:21.480 Did his thing. 0:30:24.120 --> 0:30:26.760 A Brown has one hundred plus receiving yards in each 0:30:26.760 --> 0:30:28.280 of the last three games that they've lost. 0:30:28.960 --> 0:30:30.560 And you know what else he had. He was also 0:30:30.880 --> 0:30:34.000 a key reason that they did right. They dropped the ball, 0:30:34.080 --> 0:30:36.400 dropped the ball, created one of the iron tis And 0:30:36.680 --> 0:30:39.400 I will give Hurts this much credit. That ball, that 0:30:39.520 --> 0:30:43.000 deep ball, perfect God chargers. That that could have broke 0:30:43.080 --> 0:30:46.240 the game. That was that was it ran the hands hands. 0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:49.760 So again, yeah, throw So the offense for the Eagles 0:30:50.320 --> 0:30:52.600 who lose them these games. They lose one, you think so, 0:30:53.000 --> 0:30:54.120 but are they going to lose two? 0:30:54.840 --> 0:30:55.560 They just lost one? 0:30:55.840 --> 0:30:59.200 No, No, they they they need to lose two more. 0:30:59.640 --> 0:31:01.640 I think they'll lose bills. They'll lose bills, and they'll 0:31:01.680 --> 0:31:03.080 lose to Washington at least. 0:31:03.360 --> 0:31:03.960 Yeah, I like it. 0:31:04.240 --> 0:31:06.080 All right, Let's go to one more callar before we 0:31:06.160 --> 0:31:08.560 take our second break. Robert in California? 0:31:08.720 --> 0:31:09.040 What up? 0:31:09.160 --> 0:31:13.800 Robert up? Robert drop? 0:31:14.040 --> 0:31:14.080 No? 0:31:16.920 --> 0:31:17.239 All right? 0:31:17.280 --> 0:31:20.760 What's up? Bruce in Philadelphia? Bruce, he didn't have a 0:31:20.840 --> 0:31:21.080 T and T. 0:31:21.240 --> 0:31:21.640 What's up? 0:31:21.720 --> 0:31:22.000 Guys? 0:31:22.480 --> 0:31:22.920 What's up? 0:31:23.040 --> 0:31:23.800 Man? How's it going? 0:31:24.320 --> 0:31:26.800 Appreciate you, bro? 0:31:27.040 --> 0:31:29.280 I know, man, it is bedlam up here. 0:31:29.360 --> 0:31:30.000 It's beautiful. 0:31:30.040 --> 0:31:34.800 It's a beautiful. I had I gotta listen to my 0:31:34.920 --> 0:31:36.920 fellows over here, but to listen. 0:31:36.800 --> 0:31:37.960 To Philly sports. 0:31:37.680 --> 0:31:41.200 Talk radio when the Eagles like this, it is sane. 0:31:41.920 --> 0:31:44.440 I mean, you got people want to jump bridges and everything. 0:31:44.480 --> 0:31:44.960 It's crazy. 0:31:45.280 --> 0:31:47.200 Let me let me share something with you, Bruce. 0:31:47.280 --> 0:31:49.160 One of my favorite things to do after the Eagles 0:31:49.200 --> 0:31:51.680 lose is whenever I go to sleep, I listened to 0:31:52.400 --> 0:31:56.240 Eagles podcasts and listen to the whine about losing. 0:31:56.400 --> 0:31:57.280 It is my favorite thing. 0:31:57.640 --> 0:31:58.160 Hate listen. 0:31:58.680 --> 0:31:59.880 It is music to my ears. 0:32:00.160 --> 0:32:03.600 Please I encourage and every time the Eagles lose, please 0:32:03.680 --> 0:32:06.240 just check out any of their podcast because they're all insane. 0:32:06.400 --> 0:32:07.640 I'm not giving them the numbers. 0:32:08.560 --> 0:32:10.760 I mean I do it on a separate accountant on 0:32:10.840 --> 0:32:16.120 the dark incognito mode. No, it's great, thank you, Bruce. 0:32:17.280 --> 0:32:20.320 Yeah, hey, guys, listen, I had a question, like I 0:32:20.400 --> 0:32:24.040 think one of the things that just overlooked is, like 0:32:24.600 --> 0:32:27.080 you know, in terms of well the Coweys didn't play 0:32:27.120 --> 0:32:29.600 as well against the Tray as they played those previous 0:32:29.640 --> 0:32:34.400 three games, you really can't underestimate the ability for Dak 0:32:34.440 --> 0:32:37.240 Prescott to make those changes at the line, particularly with 0:32:37.400 --> 0:32:40.600 the tackles. When he's making those line calls and changing 0:32:40.680 --> 0:32:44.000 plays when they're home, obviously it's a whole different viob 0:32:44.160 --> 0:32:46.400 And how much if you guys could just chime it, 0:32:46.480 --> 0:32:48.600 it just let the cause. And how much is that 0:32:48.680 --> 0:32:51.280 a factor in terms of his ability to change calls 0:32:51.360 --> 0:32:53.760 or get us into the perfect play where he can 0:32:53.840 --> 0:32:56.120 do that more so at home and maybe so much 0:32:56.240 --> 0:32:58.600 not on the road. So I see the lack of 0:32:58.640 --> 0:33:02.440 aggressiveness sometimes with the play calling on the road. And 0:33:02.640 --> 0:33:05.280 also the other question I had, and I you know 0:33:05.320 --> 0:33:08.800 I can listen off line, is are we talking about 0:33:08.880 --> 0:33:12.560 two playoff spots at at that may be for grads 0:33:12.600 --> 0:33:14.840 that any here. We know about the NFC East one 0:33:14.960 --> 0:33:16.080 in terms of winning division. 0:33:16.560 --> 0:33:19.120 But the Bears. I know the Bears have non. 0:33:19.040 --> 0:33:21.760 Wins now, but I think three of their last four 0:33:21.880 --> 0:33:25.720 games too look really daunting and it seems to me 0:33:25.880 --> 0:33:28.920 that you're either going to win ten games or eleven games, 0:33:28.960 --> 0:33:31.640 and the Cowboys being at ten six and one, they 0:33:31.720 --> 0:33:33.840 may have a chance at one of those wildcard spots 0:33:33.920 --> 0:33:37.040 or do today. I'll listen offline. Good listen to you guys. 0:33:37.080 --> 0:33:37.600 Thank you, Bruce. 0:33:37.680 --> 0:33:39.480 Good call, Bruce. I'm going to start with Isaiah on 0:33:39.560 --> 0:33:40.400 the quarterback thought. 0:33:40.800 --> 0:33:42.920 Changing the play at the line of scrimmage easier on 0:33:43.000 --> 0:33:45.040 the on the road or easier at home? And does 0:33:45.080 --> 0:33:46.560 it affect it one way or the other From a 0:33:46.640 --> 0:33:50.000 play calling standpoint, changing the play is obviously easier than 0:33:50.280 --> 0:33:52.640 the less noise there is, sure in the communication, but 0:33:52.760 --> 0:33:54.760 there's so many things that are non verber cues now 0:33:55.120 --> 0:33:57.920 it really doesn't shouldn't have impact you that much. 0:33:58.280 --> 0:34:01.520 There's things that you do in practice, layering music, blaring speakers, 0:34:01.560 --> 0:34:04.040 whatever it might be. Crowd noise that prepare you now 0:34:04.200 --> 0:34:05.760 is not going to be the same exact thing as 0:34:05.880 --> 0:34:09.399 in the game. But majority of your verbal communication goes 0:34:09.480 --> 0:34:12.920 towards your offensive lineman, your tight end, and you're running back, 0:34:13.080 --> 0:34:15.080 so you can. That's why you see quarterbacks walk up 0:34:15.160 --> 0:34:17.200 talk to those guys, and everybody else gets hand signals. 0:34:17.960 --> 0:34:21.400 Okay, and then the second point about the Bears. I'm 0:34:21.440 --> 0:34:25.760 looking at their final four games Browns, Packers, forty nine Ers, Lions, 0:34:26.840 --> 0:34:28.880 So I agree with him. Three of the four are 0:34:28.920 --> 0:34:32.920 pretty daunting. But if they win one more, then they 0:34:32.920 --> 0:34:35.520 would be ten. That would get them the ten and seven. 0:34:36.120 --> 0:34:38.680 If they win it, Yeah, if they win it and 0:34:38.960 --> 0:34:41.479 they only win one more, you're a ten and seven, 0:34:41.560 --> 0:34:42.400 So you would get in. 0:34:42.520 --> 0:34:44.239 If you win all four of yours and they only 0:34:44.280 --> 0:34:45.040 win one more. 0:34:45.239 --> 0:34:47.320 That's a lot of hope for you need them to 0:34:47.320 --> 0:34:50.440 slip up three times against formidable competition, or you need 0:34:50.480 --> 0:34:54.160 Philadelphia to slip up once against Philadelpior, once against Buffalo, 0:34:54.360 --> 0:34:55.960 and then once against the not so forth, a. 0:34:56.000 --> 0:34:58.279 Better chances are to try to take this division, I think. 0:34:58.320 --> 0:34:59.800 So that's what I focus on. Try to take the 0:35:00.320 --> 0:35:02.440 and if you happen in trying to take the division, 0:35:02.480 --> 0:35:05.680 if you happen to accidentally fall into a wildcard, great 0:35:05.800 --> 0:35:07.800 take it. But you got to aim for the division, 0:35:07.840 --> 0:35:08.239 not the world. 0:35:08.480 --> 0:35:09.759 I think that's kind of where we're at. 0:35:09.840 --> 0:35:12.480 All right, when we come back on Talking Cowboys, we're 0:35:12.480 --> 0:35:13.799 going to go all the way out to the great 0:35:13.880 --> 0:35:16.879 state of Alaska.

John? 0:37:40.880 --> 0:37:42.920 Hey there, good morning, good morning. 0:37:42.840 --> 0:37:43.360 Good morning. 0:37:47.000 --> 0:37:47.320 What's that? 0:37:47.480 --> 0:37:48.560 Has the sun come up here? Joe? 0:37:49.480 --> 0:37:54.080 I was just gonna say, it's really dark and really early. 0:37:54.600 --> 0:37:58.200 There's there's there's something I really need to kind of 0:37:58.200 --> 0:37:59.240 wake me up this morning. 0:37:59.400 --> 0:38:02.960 Okay, blood. 0:38:04.680 --> 0:38:11.080 Sorry that was for you, Patrick, get yourself hmm blood 0:38:11.239 --> 0:38:12.120 like vampires? 0:38:12.239 --> 0:38:13.480 Yeah, I get it? 0:38:14.280 --> 0:38:14.560 Do you? 0:38:15.719 --> 0:38:20.920 I don't. I'm I'm curious about the Okay, Yeah I 0:38:20.920 --> 0:38:21.360 don't think so. 0:38:22.000 --> 0:38:22.239 John. 0:38:22.320 --> 0:38:27.360 Sorry, thirty days a night, Okay. 0:38:27.440 --> 0:38:29.360 Right, there you go, there you go. 0:38:29.920 --> 0:38:34.240 So I got to watch the game, and the difference 0:38:34.360 --> 0:38:39.719 I saw between the defenses is the Lion's defense was 0:38:40.160 --> 0:38:43.080 was always trying to strip the ball. They were going 0:38:43.160 --> 0:38:46.759 after the ball with our offensive guys, and that was 0:38:46.800 --> 0:38:49.839 prevalent with the turnovers. And it didn't seem like our 0:38:49.960 --> 0:38:54.920 defense was really trying to do that. They were. They 0:38:54.960 --> 0:38:58.040 were more more focused on tackling, it seemed like to me. 0:38:58.200 --> 0:39:00.879 So I was kind of wondering from from your guys, 0:39:01.280 --> 0:39:03.719 because I appreciate the fact that you guys get to 0:39:03.760 --> 0:39:08.919 watch films, is that something that our defense is prioritizing 0:39:09.120 --> 0:39:12.200 is going after the ball and trying to get takeaways. 0:39:15.600 --> 0:39:15.920 Go for it. 0:39:16.640 --> 0:39:19.800 Thanks for the call, first of all, man, Yeah, I 0:39:19.840 --> 0:39:22.600 mean yeah, all defenses prioritize trying to take the ball away. 0:39:22.640 --> 0:39:24.800 So I'm not going to sit up here and accuse 0:39:24.880 --> 0:39:26.759 our defense of not doing the same. It's just so 0:39:27.280 --> 0:39:29.279 be it that certain situations a lot for you to 0:39:30.000 --> 0:39:33.280 go after the ball more so than others. For instance, 0:39:33.360 --> 0:39:36.080 the punch out, I think that Campbell had the tackle 0:39:36.160 --> 0:39:38.800 was already secured. The tackle was secured, so all his 0:39:39.040 --> 0:39:41.880 job now is to come. Since the tackle is already secured, 0:39:42.200 --> 0:39:43.920 he has the ability to now come out and just 0:39:43.960 --> 0:39:46.160 simply try to punch at the ball. Your number one 0:39:46.200 --> 0:39:49.000 priority is to get the man down. Number two. If 0:39:49.040 --> 0:39:50.440 you're in a position to get them down and you 0:39:50.520 --> 0:39:52.239 secure the tackle, then you try to go for the 0:39:52.280 --> 0:39:52.799 chicken strip. 0:39:52.880 --> 0:39:54.879 So that is kind of how. 0:39:55.040 --> 0:39:56.239 Most teams teach it. 0:39:56.360 --> 0:39:58.040 I can't speak to what the Cowboys do, but I 0:39:58.160 --> 0:40:00.279 know that we've seen them in training camps, them in 0:40:00.320 --> 0:40:00.920 pre practice. 0:40:01.120 --> 0:40:03.279 It is a point of emphasis for sure. 0:40:03.360 --> 0:40:06.719 I mean I listening to Shoddy over the last couple 0:40:06.719 --> 0:40:08.960 of weeks talk about the turnover differential and like just 0:40:09.040 --> 0:40:12.200 being frustrated by it, obviously because the turnovers are not 0:40:12.320 --> 0:40:14.520 quite there for the defense like he wants them to be, 0:40:14.640 --> 0:40:17.479 like anybody wants them to be, right, But I don't 0:40:17.560 --> 0:40:19.160 have any doubt that there's an emphasis on it. And 0:40:19.239 --> 0:40:22.560 you have a lot of playmakers, including Deron Bland, who 0:40:22.719 --> 0:40:25.239 is efficient at making those interceptions and being able to 0:40:25.520 --> 0:40:27.960 be a ballhawk, right, But you're not seeing it click 0:40:28.040 --> 0:40:29.200 this year. But I think a lot of that is 0:40:29.239 --> 0:40:32.080 the communication struggles that they've had all season with the 0:40:32.120 --> 0:40:35.080 defense and having to change the scheme midway through the season. 0:40:35.480 --> 0:40:37.600 I think the more you're able to get these guys 0:40:38.400 --> 0:40:41.360 playing time. Like we're talking about getting Logan Wilson involved, 0:40:41.400 --> 0:40:44.400 getting players that you're not really seeing a lot on 0:40:44.440 --> 0:40:47.759 the field right now. I think the more different looks 0:40:47.800 --> 0:40:49.800 that you get on defense, the more opportunities like that 0:40:49.920 --> 0:40:50.640 will come about. 0:40:51.880 --> 0:40:53.879 I mean, bottom liney is just exactly what you guys 0:40:53.920 --> 0:40:57.040 are saying, like priority number one has to be getting 0:40:57.120 --> 0:40:59.759 got to the ground has to be because when you 0:41:00.160 --> 0:41:03.080 prioritize punching the ball away over that, what you start 0:41:03.120 --> 0:41:05.799 to see is something that played the Cowboys more often 0:41:05.840 --> 0:41:09.919 than not, your with your mistackles. So coaches, if they're 0:41:09.960 --> 0:41:12.319 coaching it the right way, it's about getting the guy 0:41:12.400 --> 0:41:15.719 wrapped up and then the free runner he's the one 0:41:15.760 --> 0:41:17.960 that should come in and punch at it while the guy. 0:41:18.080 --> 0:41:19.359 So if you have the guy, if you're the first 0:41:19.400 --> 0:41:21.560 one to the guy, you're taking him down prooraby one. 0:41:21.719 --> 0:41:23.320 Get that guy to the ground, and while you're on 0:41:23.320 --> 0:41:25.000 the way to the ground, shirt kind of jab at 0:41:25.040 --> 0:41:27.239 the ball. But it should never be the other way around. 0:41:27.239 --> 0:41:28.920 I'm talking about rally to the ball. That is a 0:41:29.040 --> 0:41:30.280 term that's brought up a lot. 0:41:30.280 --> 0:41:31.279 And just swarm to it. 0:41:31.520 --> 0:41:33.760 You have to be able to do that and the seasons. 0:41:33.920 --> 0:41:34.719 Did he like this? 0:41:41.400 --> 0:41:43.960 Let's go to Eric in North Carolina. Eric, you're on 0:41:44.080 --> 0:41:44.800 Talking Cowboys. 0:41:44.840 --> 0:41:45.279 What's going on? 0:41:45.800 --> 0:41:52.799 What's up guys? First time? Hey, I admire you guys. Guys, 0:41:53.360 --> 0:41:55.640 you guys are something to Some of the reasons why 0:41:55.680 --> 0:41:59.799 I like that is Cowboys, sports media, the podcast, met 0:42:00.239 --> 0:42:02.400 the stuff you guys give us on the web, website, 0:42:02.719 --> 0:42:05.680 in the app, it's second to none. You gotta twitch 0:42:05.680 --> 0:42:07.959 your money where your mouth is. Y'all walk the walk, 0:42:08.760 --> 0:42:11.000 and I just gotta give y'all flowers. Now I'm a 0:42:11.080 --> 0:42:17.240 normal I will I'm a normal guy with a regular 0:42:17.280 --> 0:42:19.680 with hanging with the boards on me and Shannon Groves 0:42:19.680 --> 0:42:22.800 and my dog just know because you know, But I 0:42:22.920 --> 0:42:24.680 just want to, you know, say that you guys want 0:42:24.719 --> 0:42:27.319 to make my little quick comment man, keep up the work, 0:42:27.400 --> 0:42:29.560 keep up the good work, y'all color commentary. You guys 0:42:29.640 --> 0:42:33.840 do doing those games. You know, Isaiah and Kyle, you 0:42:33.920 --> 0:42:36.720 guys are just top quality, five star material. 0:42:36.800 --> 0:42:40.279 Man. I appreciate man, and I do. 0:42:40.360 --> 0:42:42.000 Want my companies about Kenneth Murray. 0:42:42.960 --> 0:42:43.080 Uh. 0:42:43.680 --> 0:42:45.719 I don't want to trash pile up on a guy, 0:42:46.680 --> 0:42:48.960 but you know the take he's been putting out all 0:42:49.080 --> 0:42:52.360 year long. It's just so disturbing you overrunning places like 0:42:52.880 --> 0:42:56.120 he's he said that those plays miss tackles. He's in 0:42:56.200 --> 0:42:58.840 the spot, the right place, the right john, not finishing 0:42:58.880 --> 0:43:01.239 the place one of itself out of play. Not see. 0:43:01.280 --> 0:43:05.279 What I'm talking about is what is the issue where 0:43:05.320 --> 0:43:07.799 he's getting those reps? Why isn't one of lead farm 0:43:07.880 --> 0:43:10.680 I've seen. I guess he know youth like you behind him. 0:43:10.719 --> 0:43:13.239 I don't know, but I just feel like if we 0:43:13.320 --> 0:43:18.080 can just solidify that that live back spot man, you know, 0:43:18.440 --> 0:43:21.160 finishing plays like you guys just said, you know, getting 0:43:21.200 --> 0:43:25.279 guys on the ground, man, diagnose the planes, keeping guys 0:43:25.320 --> 0:43:27.640 in the long distance, down the distance and third down. 0:43:27.800 --> 0:43:29.360 If we could just get that, man, I feel like 0:43:29.360 --> 0:43:31.400 we're gonna make a hell of a one. But you know, 0:43:31.520 --> 0:43:34.560 once again, thanks God taking my call. If you guys 0:43:34.680 --> 0:43:37.600 keep bringing the thunder, I'm gonna keep listening, man, Cowboys 0:43:37.760 --> 0:43:38.239 for life. 0:43:38.440 --> 0:43:41.320 Yes, sir, sure, I appreciate you. 0:43:41.400 --> 0:43:41.560 Man. 0:43:41.600 --> 0:43:43.480 What do you think like positive affirmations? 0:43:43.520 --> 0:43:43.680 There? 0:43:43.760 --> 0:43:45.319 Ye, a lot of them do that all the time. 0:43:46.360 --> 0:43:47.800 I think we hit on a lot of it earlier 0:43:48.000 --> 0:43:51.640 in the show. So I keep this one short. We 0:43:51.719 --> 0:43:54.320 don't truly know what they're but they're talking about in 0:43:54.320 --> 0:43:56.880 those mining rooms. We really just don't write, so. 0:43:56.960 --> 0:43:58.800 We don't know halfway what they're doing in practice. 0:43:58.880 --> 0:44:00.839 Yeah, we don't know what they're doing there. 0:44:00.960 --> 0:44:06.040 We don't know the capacity or where the other linebackers 0:44:06.040 --> 0:44:08.239 that he's competing with are at in their development and 0:44:08.239 --> 0:44:12.879 their understanding of what their collective assignments are. There's one 0:44:13.000 --> 0:44:15.360 there's one portion from a coaching standpoint, where you have 0:44:15.400 --> 0:44:18.360 to be comfortable and confident in your guy's ability to 0:44:18.480 --> 0:44:22.120 be able to understand what you're running scheme wise. 0:44:23.080 --> 0:44:24.520 That might be his advantage. 0:44:25.440 --> 0:44:28.200 Maybe the other guys aren't as far along in their 0:44:28.320 --> 0:44:31.640 understanding of the defense as a whole, but maybe their 0:44:31.760 --> 0:44:34.640 instincts are better, right, So maybe they're just swapped. 0:44:34.760 --> 0:44:36.239 Maybe they're there, They're they're they're there. 0:44:36.440 --> 0:44:38.960 They positive for Murray is that he probably understands the 0:44:39.080 --> 0:44:41.520 defense and maybe the other guys don't, right, But the 0:44:41.600 --> 0:44:43.360 positives for the other guys is that they probably have 0:44:43.440 --> 0:44:45.000 better instincts and better run fits. 0:44:45.360 --> 0:44:47.920 And maybe obviously Kenth Murray just is having a rough 0:44:47.960 --> 0:44:48.360 time with that. 0:44:48.520 --> 0:44:51.040 So if you can't get to the spot, if they 0:44:51.040 --> 0:44:53.440 don't read it, cred they have the ability, the athletic 0:44:53.480 --> 0:44:55.080 ability to run to that spoty exactly, And. 0:44:55.080 --> 0:44:56.480 I'm just throwing that out there right That may or 0:44:56.520 --> 0:44:58.600 may not be the case. But for me, if I 0:44:58.800 --> 0:45:01.200 were I don't coach linebackers, but if I were to 0:45:01.239 --> 0:45:03.759 coaching Kenneth Murray, regardless of how long he's been in 0:45:03.800 --> 0:45:05.200 the league, I would ask him to put in more 0:45:05.239 --> 0:45:08.759 time on film because sometimes your eyes can betray you, 0:45:09.320 --> 0:45:11.040 and that's why you have to spend so much time 0:45:11.120 --> 0:45:13.120 on film to assist you in that regard. 0:45:14.280 --> 0:45:17.880 Okay, let's get to at least one more collar. 0:45:18.160 --> 0:45:19.960 This is one of our faves as well, part of 0:45:20.080 --> 0:45:22.560 the fan Molye hood he toush from the basement. 0:45:24.719 --> 0:45:26.640 See you're not blocked, hoodie. 0:45:26.800 --> 0:45:28.040 What are you talking about? 0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:32.960 I noticed that. What's going on? What's going on Titans 0:45:33.000 --> 0:45:34.880 and this Cowboys space. I'm happy to be on with 0:45:34.960 --> 0:45:38.120 you guys as usual, and I'm saying I just want 0:45:38.160 --> 0:45:40.799 to throw some things out there. I'll make it quick. 0:45:42.040 --> 0:45:43.960 I don't think Ryan Floyd Moore is getting a much 0:45:44.000 --> 0:45:47.560 love or getting getting enough love, And I don't think 0:45:47.640 --> 0:45:50.240 Dak Prescott is getting enough love for what he actually 0:45:50.400 --> 0:45:53.879 had to do in that Detroit game. Yes, the two interceptions. 0:45:53.920 --> 0:45:56.719 They're problematic, but those two interceptions were not on him. 0:45:57.200 --> 0:45:59.879 I love the fact that Jentlen squirts through about four 0:46:00.000 --> 0:46:03.799 interceptions last night and had his uh shortcomings if you will, 0:46:04.760 --> 0:46:07.719 and uh yeah, I'm just I'm hoping that we can 0:46:07.840 --> 0:46:10.759 take advantage. If the Eagles continue to melt down like 0:46:11.280 --> 0:46:15.560 you know, Chernobyl, and we continue to ascend like the 0:46:15.719 --> 0:46:17.920 rockets that we are, then I think we'll be in 0:46:18.000 --> 0:46:20.840 a good spot. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna donald 0:46:20.880 --> 0:46:22.720 too long. Just want to say what's up to my boys? 0:46:23.000 --> 0:46:25.000 You know, the Titans in the space, and I'm always 0:46:25.000 --> 0:46:25.879 happy to be home with y'all. 0:46:27.160 --> 0:46:29.600 Thanks for the call. Patrick. How do you feel about 0:46:30.400 --> 0:46:31.280 Ryan Flanoy? 0:46:32.560 --> 0:46:34.040 Well, first of all, I don't know why y'all trying 0:46:34.040 --> 0:46:35.200 to Sitney swinging me over here? 0:46:39.680 --> 0:46:40.440 What does that mean? 0:46:41.520 --> 0:46:47.920 But rifleinoy day one, Flow rider flow high. Listen and 0:46:48.080 --> 0:46:52.200 listen closely, Isaiah standback. Who wants to draft a receiver 0:46:52.360 --> 0:46:54.920 in the first round? I shan't let you do it. 0:46:55.120 --> 0:46:58.000 I shan't, I say, because you got Ryan Flinoyd. And 0:46:58.080 --> 0:47:03.680 when you got Ryan Flinoy, dammit you a chance. Okay, seriously, man, 0:47:03.760 --> 0:47:07.120 all jumps aside, Ryan Flinoy, he's blossoming in year two. 0:47:07.480 --> 0:47:09.880 He's showing you that if push comes to shove, he 0:47:09.920 --> 0:47:12.840 can get you one hundred yards and some critical plays 0:47:12.960 --> 0:47:15.160 in important games. Just got to make sure that you're 0:47:15.239 --> 0:47:18.560 utilizing him correctly and putting him into the spots to succeed. 0:47:18.680 --> 0:47:21.319 But this is a guy who has refined his route running. 0:47:21.360 --> 0:47:25.400 He's an athletic freaks. He's yards after to catch, he's 0:47:25.440 --> 0:47:28.759 shedding tackles, he's physical with getting guys off of him, 0:47:28.760 --> 0:47:31.480 stiff arms running around him. He'll run through you. He'll 0:47:31.520 --> 0:47:34.200 high point the ball in the taket at its highest point. 0:47:34.239 --> 0:47:36.840 He's a violent guy at the line of scrimmage. So 0:47:36.920 --> 0:47:38.360 if you want to press him, do so at your 0:47:38.400 --> 0:47:40.800 own peril. Might not end well for you and the 0:47:40.880 --> 0:47:43.000 family that's watching you. Hoping you have a good day 0:47:43.040 --> 0:47:46.279 in that particular rip. So yeah, Ryan Flinoy, Yeah, kind 0:47:46.320 --> 0:47:48.160 of good at American football. Appreciate that. 0:47:48.440 --> 0:47:48.600 DM. 0:47:51.440 --> 0:47:55.200 That's it, Mic Drop, Mike Drop, Congratulations Patrick, well done, dude. 0:47:55.520 --> 0:47:59.000 You've been on the Ryan Flinoy high tops and he's 0:47:59.040 --> 0:48:02.360 been giving Flanoy his flowers since he was rafted. 0:48:02.520 --> 0:48:05.560 Seriously, thank you, highly, highly impressive eyes. 0:48:07.400 --> 0:48:10.120 The photos for those that are listening on our audio 0:48:10.320 --> 0:48:12.080 only or even that couldn't really see it. 0:48:12.120 --> 0:48:13.280 In terms of the boxes. 0:48:13.760 --> 0:48:16.560 We pushed all of our mics to Patrick in the 0:48:16.640 --> 0:48:19.360 middle of the phone call, and then I had to 0:48:19.600 --> 0:48:21.840 somehow get it back to Pat because he was on 0:48:21.960 --> 0:48:24.799 his phone halfway through the phone call, and I don't 0:48:24.800 --> 0:48:26.000 even know if he was asked. 0:48:25.920 --> 0:48:28.040 I was listening to you, did hear it? But I 0:48:28.120 --> 0:48:30.440 was also replying to our good friend Nicole Hutcheson. She 0:48:30.520 --> 0:48:32.680 was asking me about a programmed note for the next 0:48:32.719 --> 0:48:33.480 thing that's coming up. 0:48:33.640 --> 0:48:36.480 But the uh, we pushed all our mics over there, 0:48:36.600 --> 0:48:38.120 and the photos that are going to come out here 0:48:38.160 --> 0:48:40.320 in a little bit are really funny, so you'll enjoy that. 0:48:40.800 --> 0:48:41.160 All right. 0:48:41.719 --> 0:48:43.520 That does it for us here on talking cow.
