1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Are you ready for 3 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: a break? Yes? Are you ready for a break? Absolutely? 4 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: Ready for a break? Yeah, and so much for that. 5 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:20,120 Speaker 1: It's time for the break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com 6 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: with Nick Eatman, David Hellman, and bar Garcia and Derek Eagleton. 7 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: Good morning, guys, Today is Friday, and Derek just joined us. 8 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 1: Just in time. Yeah, right on time, Derek Nice. Well, 9 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: the NFL has officially started the NFL season, and last 10 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: night we got to watch the Eagles against the Falcons. 11 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 1: So how are you guys doing after watching the first game? 12 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: I was better before I watched it, Honestly, why your life? 13 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: Because any parts? Because it sucked. There were twenty five flags. 14 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: Well that's yeah, that's so. I find a score eighteen twelve, 15 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: Eagles win and the offenses look bad. Twenty five flags. 16 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: NFL MVP Matt Ryan couldn't hit the broadside of a 17 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: barn by his standards at least. Um. I just thought 18 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: it really sucked. Nick doesn't think Matt Ryan's that good anyway, 19 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: So I mean he's he's pretty good. I mean he 20 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: is pretty good. I don't think he was the MVP 21 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: of the league. I don't think he should have been 22 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,639 Speaker 1: MVP of the league that year. But he's pretty good 23 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: until he gets down to the red zone against the 24 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,639 Speaker 1: Eagles with the game on the line or the season 25 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: on the line, and he doesn't. He doesn't have They 26 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 1: don't have an answer for that. But I mean, Eagles 27 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: have a really good defense. They showed again, and I 28 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: think the Falcons had a pretty good defense as well. 29 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 1: So that defensive front, you know, defensive defense. Defensive football 30 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: does not bother me at all. I want. I grew 31 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: up watching the SEC. But twenty five flags barf. Yeah, 32 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: not good. That's yeah, that's the NFL. That's what they do. 33 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: I mean, that's they got all these rule changes and 34 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna show them too. This whole I'm gonna put 35 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: as though it's a layer, like we got this new 36 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: these new rules. We got to show your rule. But 37 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: you can't put your body weight on a quarterback. So yeah, 38 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: if you do that penalty. Well. One of the things 39 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: that really upset me the most is this whole catch 40 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,519 Speaker 1: non catch thing. It is still really really bothering me, 41 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: especially the one that happened last night. And I'm sure 42 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 1: you guys all agree that was a catch, right, Yes, 43 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 1: Julio has cost me six point? What? What are you 44 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 1: making a face? No? I mean I know when you're 45 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 1: talking about, so it goes back. I just wanted to 46 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: bring this whole thing. I mean again, there are key 47 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: moments to games where obviously a catch can make the 48 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: game count as far as winning or losing. And the 49 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: fact that it's so up in the air, and I 50 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: mean this catch was still reviewed and it was still 51 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: called off and non catch. That's what bothers me the 52 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: most about it. It's one thing I don't expect referees 53 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: to be so good to wear as quick as the 54 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: game is, that they're going to always get the call 55 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: right in real time. What I do expect, though, is 56 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: if we're all sitting at home watching an angle that 57 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: clearly shows he had possession and control of the ball 58 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: before his shoulder goes out of bounds, and we see this, 59 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: how can you explain to me that the referee couldn't 60 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: see the same thing. And that's the part that's so 61 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: frustrating for fans is we now have technology that will 62 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: show us on television exactly what the referee should be 63 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: able to see and when he comes to a different 64 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: conclusion than the rest of the world, it's like, how 65 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: can you not see that? You know, it's amazing. The 66 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: biggest problem to me, it's in both college and pro 67 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: is because they still weigh heavily on what they think 68 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: they saw initially and then and then one thousand percent. 69 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: You've got to make sure that that's it's not the same. 70 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: I think you need to get you under the hood 71 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: or whatever they do now and just clear out what 72 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: it was called, look at it and make the call, 73 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: because because the actual call on the field is actually 74 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: being determined by what they do, because they can have 75 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: a catch all upstairs, let's just call it a turnover, 76 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: because then that will automatically be reviewed and then we 77 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: can figure it out. And I actually think the best 78 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: way to do that is to have an arbitrary person 79 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: that is a basically a referee that sits in a 80 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: booth behind a camera and when he looks at it, 81 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: he's not looking at it from standpoint what was the call? 82 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: He didn't care. He's looking at and saying, I'm watching 83 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 1: this objectively for the first time, here's my assessment, and 84 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: here's how it should go right, And so if you 85 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: have to go to the booth, this arbitrary person now 86 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: makes that decision, rather than the person who is who's 87 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: already made the call having to reverse themselves. Yeah. Well, 88 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: hopefully the Cowboys will have a better weekend and better 89 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: referees there at the game. So before we move on 90 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: and get into the game, I wanted to go over 91 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: a quick roster move that happened today. Parker. He was 92 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 1: placed on ir the guard that I injured his knee yesterday, 93 00:04:52,560 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: right Wednesday or anger? No, par's park Parker. And I 94 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: think the Cowboys are angered by the fact that they 95 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: actually traded for a guy who's not playing. Yeah, right, 96 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: so I can't feel good. Yes, now what now they 97 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: got a Kadima at words, they signed him back on 98 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: the roster. So as far as that, I mean, that's 99 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: just kinda to add depth there. And he's probably gonna play, right, 100 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: He was practicing like a guy who was probably gonna play. Yeah, 101 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: I mean, he's been here all through training. Cast if 102 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: he plays or he gets in the game, does anything. 103 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: I mean this is he knows that he's not gonna 104 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: be long for this team because they didn't even want 105 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: him on the practice squad m But it came down 106 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: to Friday and they're like, okay, who can we put 107 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: in that we knows in shape, knows, the team knows 108 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: the plays ball out. Yeah, I mean here's your chance. Play. Well, 109 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,239 Speaker 1: maybe you can change their minds in the real games. 110 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: Your chance. Okay, So let's quickly go over the inactives 111 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: that we're expecting to be this weekend. Obviously Travis, then 112 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 1: Xavier Woods, Dagtone Jones. That's three. That's three that have 113 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: to sit like they yes, they have to sit. Now, 114 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: who would be the rest on that list? I think 115 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: they'll have a third quarterback? I mean Mike White, Yeah, 116 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: one of the quarterbacks probably Mike White. Mike White, Um, 117 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: you know, one of the tight ends. Maybe you think 118 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: it came down to the very end of practice that 119 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 1: we saw, I mean the open part. I was looking 120 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 1: at the special team stuff. I didn't see anything that 121 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: they're neither one of them are playing. Schultz Rico is 122 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: playing on a lot of special team stuff that we saw, 123 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: so you couldn't tell they're not. To the very end, 124 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: did they do a little bit of first team or 125 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: a little bit like pat and go type stuff? Really 126 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: with Dak and Schultz was out there and Rico was 127 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: kind of behind everything. That's the only thing that I 128 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: could see that would like, why would Schultz be running 129 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: stuff with Dak if Rico's not? Yeah, I don't. I 130 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 1: don't know what they're gonna do with that. I gleaned 131 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: toward thinking Rico's gonna play or be active at least 132 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: I can't. I mean, I don't know how much he's 133 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: gonna play, but maybe they both are well, but I 134 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: after Mike White, I would throw Chris Covington in. I 135 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: think he probably sits, and then, um, who am I forgetting? Well, 136 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: you don't really have a secondary guy you can know? 137 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: Could there be one of the defensive linemen that possibly 138 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: offensive tackle? Maybe? I mean they got right now, eight 139 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: or nine? Eight? If you got eight there, they're all 140 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: got to play, right, I mean, the one guy that 141 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: that could sit out would be Armstrong. If you had to, 142 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: you could go with seven. But I know, typically first 143 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: game of the year, I think, and it's gonna be warm, 144 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: you like that rotation of eight. I don't think you 145 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: sit anybody there. I'm trying to think of what position 146 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: they can go like they can actually do without a guy. 147 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: You can sit Um, you can sit Adam Redmond your 148 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: backup center because Zach Martin can play center. You have 149 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: kadeem who can back up at card if you need to. 150 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: So you got what you got? Seven linemen. Yeah, I 151 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: mean that's normal. That's in the NFL. Seven lineman dressed 152 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: for a game. That gives you six guys, you still 153 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: need one. And that's and I think if I had 154 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: to guess you sit a tight end, I don't know who. Yeah, 155 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: I would I would say Schultz because I think they're 156 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: they're gonna want to see Rico. But that's just a guess. 157 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: If I got to choose, I think I can get 158 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: more out of Rico than I can get out of Schultz. 159 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: If you were absolutely bound and determined to play all 160 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: four tight ends, you could maybe sit Deontay Thompson. Of 161 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: all their receivers, I think he's the one that I mean, 162 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis can return kicks, and Deonte is probably the 163 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: least versatile of all of them, because I mean he's 164 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: just straight speed to every one of those other guys 165 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: other than Terrence. Can they also play a slot. Terrence 166 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,319 Speaker 1: can play in the slots. Don't do it a lot. 167 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 1: But yeah, that's what I'm saying is you've gotten to 168 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 1: look at pretty much all those receivers inside and out. Yeah, 169 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: they've played everywhere. See like most of those others I've 170 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: seen this camp, I've seen in inside and out, Deonte 171 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: is the one that he typically stays on the outside 172 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: because that's I mean, that's what he's here for, is 173 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: to take the top off the defense. So so you've 174 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: got two backup corners and in uh Jordan Lewis and 175 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown. Yeah, two backup safeties and her him and 176 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: try Robinson, So you really can't do anything with second seconds. 177 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: Got to be the already moved Covington. That's six. Now 178 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 1: you're down to six linebackers with Marshall Lillard all of them. 179 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: I really don't Yeah, I don't think you have a 180 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 1: ton of options other than you have take another tight 181 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: end tight end or or the sixth. Well, who helps 182 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 1: you more the most on special teams? Rico or Schultz. 183 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: I don't think either won When I told when I 184 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: talked to him a few days ago, I mean he 185 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: said that basically one of his biggest roles would be 186 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: helping out on special teams. They were both working on 187 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 1: punt team today. I mean like they can both do it. 188 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: They're just I don't trust either one of them that much. 189 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: But you saw them on punt team. They were both 190 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: working on special teams. Yeah, with the jerseys on, with 191 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: one one on and one off. Yeah. Well, what I 192 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: saw was and that's what you look for, is who's 193 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: doing the actual scout team and who's actually doing the 194 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: real punt team. In from what I saw, I couldn't 195 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,599 Speaker 1: see either one of them doing the stuff. Maybe I 196 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: missed a little bit of the first part of it, though. 197 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 1: I just get the feel from what I saw today 198 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: they're leaning towards Schultz. But if you listen to some 199 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: of the stuff Jerry said, and he's just kind of 200 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: hinted about it, and it sounds like it could be 201 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: more rico. But let's assume for a second they carry 202 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: for who can be that last guy he just said, 203 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: Deancey Thompson or one receiver or some receiver. Deontay's only 204 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: one other than Terrence. Yeah, that was gonna say, unless 205 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 1: you want Terrence to be inactive, which wouldn't shock me. Again, 206 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 1: I said, I don't think. I don't think. I don't 207 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: think it was a coincidence that we didn't see him 208 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: running with the first team a lot. I don't think 209 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: that's a coincidence that he's the guy that probably gives 210 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: you the least amount of everything versatility for sure. Yeah, 211 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: but he's got the most experience. Would be fairly surprised 212 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 1: if the only guy who's been here for any length 213 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: of time is a single. He had a pretty good 214 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: training camp, limited for how they Okay, yes, for for 215 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: obviously he was injured and stuff. But when he did 216 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: come back and the times that he was out there, 217 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: he made it. You know, he took advantage of that time. 218 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: And but but that's I guess that's the part that 219 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 1: still was just kind of baffling to me. Did I 220 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: agree with you? I think when he was out there, 221 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 1: I saw him make a couple of catches. But the 222 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,599 Speaker 1: issue was he never was enough for him to consistently 223 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: be working with the first team, even even after he 224 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: got back and was healthy, and he just it seemed 225 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: like they were using him a lot more with the 226 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: second team than the first team. I feel like we 227 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 1: have differing opinions on this, Like no, I just nobody 228 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: in this receiver corps was like a staple with the 229 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: first team, except for maybe Cole Beasley when he's healthy. Yeah, 230 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,199 Speaker 1: Like Alan Hearn spent a lot of time with the 231 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: second team. Michael Gallup was all over. Michael Gallup was 232 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: going with the threes twos. And did you remember seeing 233 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: Williams a lot with the first team though, I guess 234 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: that's the point. I didn't see him a lot with 235 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: the first team. I know everybody was kind of working 236 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: with I don't remember seeing him exclusively with the second 237 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: team to the point where it made an impression on me, 238 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, I literally I don't 239 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: think they know what to expect from this receiver. Corps 240 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: and Dak, Like, we talked to Dak about it yesterday 241 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: and he basically was like, well, we'll see whoever's in 242 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: there at the moment. Huh. Like that works, that's the 243 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: fun of it. We're gonna We're gonna get some answers 244 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 1: finally on Sunday. Hopefully they're good answers. Let's take it 245 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: could be Dorance Armstrong. If you think about Tyrone Crawford 246 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: being a tackle and an end, you could you could 247 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: still only have now seven guys and I think you 248 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: know a warm climate and the way they like to 249 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: use their defensive lyon I think they want to be 250 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: able to rotate those guys around. That's just rotate. Okay, well, 251 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: never mind put him, yeah, let him play, Okay and kick, 252 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 1: but okay, let's take our first break.

We try to figure 295 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: out the enactors, but I guess we'll just have to 296 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: wait and see until the game. Yet that's not true. 297 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: We we're gonna like somebody we mentioned is gonna be 298 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: inactive like we got it. Oh yeah, we'll get one 299 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: for sure, but also wouldn't be shot if it's somebody 300 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: else we didn't mention. They've surprised me before within it. Yeah, 301 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: so we'll see, okay, especially this first game, second game, 302 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: when you're trying they're trying to figure out, you know, 303 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: what they're doing. So so it is expected to rain, 304 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: and we saw how the rain affected last night's game, 305 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: which was a night Mary. Hopefully that doesn't happen this 306 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: weekend for our game. But as far as the rain goes, 307 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: I know we discussed yesterday how maybe this was the 308 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: one game where it would be best for Dak Prescott 309 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: to throw passes down the field and kind of take 310 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: advantage over the passing game rather than the running game 311 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: a little bit because of the defense in over there. 312 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: So how how much will this change this whole passing 313 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: game when he comes out to rain and and Dad 314 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: kind of commented talked about it yesterday a little bit, 315 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: and that he has played in raining before. Yeah, they 316 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: played in a freaking monsoon in DC last year that 317 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: was gross, which, um, I don't know. I mean, you know, 318 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett loves to say you focus on yourself and 319 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: don't let the outside elements dictate what you do. They were, 320 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: which that's not one hundred percent true, because they were 321 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: soaking the balls in water today at practice just to 322 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: get a feel for what working with a wet football 323 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: is like. But it's it's a fifty percent chance, Like 324 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not going to change up my stuff 325 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: just because it might rain. I mean, if it does start, 326 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: that's and that's what they did in Washington last year 327 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: is like it just was relentless all through the second half, 328 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: and they changed what they were doing they stopped asking 329 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: Dak to be throwing these long balls down the field, 330 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: and I think I think Zeke set a career high 331 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: for carries in that game because they were just trying 332 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: to get through it. Which if that's the case, then 333 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: you've got a great running game you can lean on. 334 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: But I'm not changing my game plan on Friday because 335 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: I'm worried about what might happen on Sunday. And it's 336 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: also a rare occurrence when you get to a game 337 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 1: and it's just a consistent hard downpour the entire game. 338 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: Right It's you know, if it's fifty percent chance you 339 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 1: might get some rain at some point during the game, 340 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: it might let up, it might be heavy. The one 341 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,959 Speaker 1: thing I've noticed about the NFL football, these guys are 342 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: so skilled. A little bit of rain, I don't think 343 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: affects the passing game, to be honest with you, a 344 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: whole lot. I think when you start having those downpours, yeah, 345 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,199 Speaker 1: that could be very difficult to be able to work in. 346 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 1: But it's rare that you have a game where you 347 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 1: have a consistent hard downpour the entire game, So I 348 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 1: think it'll be fine. I agree with Dave. You go in, 349 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: you just do what you're gonna do, and if you 350 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: have to adjust in game, you adjust in game. But 351 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: I think for the most part, you just go in 352 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: with your plan. I think the word adjust adjust, right. 353 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: I think the biggest issue is going to be the 354 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: kicking game and just and punning and the kicking and 355 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,360 Speaker 1: with you know, your new place kicker. And I think 356 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: was that the first game that the new kicker, Mike Nugend. Yeah, 357 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 1: he was kicking in that game too, and I think 358 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,239 Speaker 1: he he made most of him. He might have missed one. 359 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 1: I think he went either went three out of four 360 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 1: or four out of five first start there, but that 361 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: probably goes down to red zone and not being able 362 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,199 Speaker 1: to really throw the ball in there. And and so 363 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna come down to that with kicking. So good luck. 364 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,479 Speaker 1: I mean, he already got pressure that you have to 365 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: make every kick for the next two years, but now 366 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 1: you got your first game is gonna be in the rain. 367 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: He'll be fine. This is not setting up to be 368 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 1: favorable for this young man. Just the whole way everything 369 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: went down worries me. I don't want buy it, you know, 370 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,199 Speaker 1: because he's well, he's not fortunate in this regard. But 371 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: in a weird way. He's fortunate in the sense that 372 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: guess what if Dan Bailey sucked, Like he would get 373 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: cut to like if he if he struggled and missed 374 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 1: kicks early on, Like you're your margin for error is 375 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 1: so him when you're a kicker in the NFL, Like 376 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,919 Speaker 1: this is a pressure packed job. Like if he's missing 377 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 1: kicks and he didn't replace Dan Bailey, he's gonna get cut. 378 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: The Bucks cut Roberto Oguyo, who they traded up for 379 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: to get in the second round after like but he's 380 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: but what I'm but point being like they sunk a 381 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 1: lot of resources into him and he wasn't doing the job, 382 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: and they're like, you're out. Sorry, he's horrible though he 383 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: was like really really bad. If nothing like camp, you 384 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: do not have job security as an NFL kicker, even 385 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 1: if you're like one of the best ever. If Justin 386 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: if Justin Tucker has only hit four out of ten 387 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: in October, he might get a leash because how good 388 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 1: he's been. But like it ain't gonna be that long. 389 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: Think about Blair Walsh out in Minnesota fix nays Ago, 390 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 1: like he was a really really one of the best 391 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: in the league and then he had a year where 392 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: he fell apart and guess what, the next year he 393 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 1: was gone. That's what we always say, like, I mean, 394 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: I know we were all shocked by Dan getting cut, 395 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: but i we've had conversations before or about typically when 396 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 1: kickers lose it, they lose it, and you can go 397 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: from being a pro bowler to unemployed not a long 398 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: amount of time. And the fact that they and the 399 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 1: reason why they did it, I mean I've kind of 400 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: been still been asking about it is that they feel 401 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: like they're kicker will struggle and they're gonna have a 402 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: short leash, so might as well just cut Dan now 403 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: instead of let him go in week one. He's on 404 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: the team that three million dollars is guaranteed he struggles 405 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: in week two or three and he's cut. I mean, 406 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: they could cut this guy, could miss two kicks on Sunday, 407 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 1: get cut. They signed Dan Bailey and then they save 408 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 1: here in two and a half. So you're saying it 409 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 1: still comes back to the fact that they didn't think 410 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: they were getting a better kicker in Dan Bailey than 411 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 1: what they're getting in Not really, and they feel like 412 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: if they if he's gonna struggle then and you cut him, 413 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,199 Speaker 1: you're on the hook for three million. So I know 414 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: that we talk about that with other players. I don't 415 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: remember it being mentioned a lot with Dan. It makes 416 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 1: a little bit more sense there. My only rebuttal to 417 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: that is give him more opportunities in the preseason to 418 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 1: help your own confidence and his confidence a little bit. 419 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 1: Then you could have figured that out a little bit more, 420 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 1: because right now they're just thinking he's gonna struggle. Yeah, 421 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: but that that thinking, though, is based upon things they've 422 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 1: probably seen. It's based upon what yeah, body language, maybe 423 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 1: based upon that those couple of days there in practice 424 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: where he just kind of fell off the wagon for 425 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: a couple of days and then he got back on. 426 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: But that probably went a long way with him too, 427 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: saying hey, he might be great for the first three 428 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 1: weeks and then he hits one of these kids again, 429 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: and then we got two games where he's not playing, 430 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: And you could say that's only a couple of days 431 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,239 Speaker 1: of practice and he was good. But it sounds like, 432 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 1: and I don't know, we weren't really paying that much attention. 433 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: It sounds like Maha did not even have those days. No, Yeah, 434 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: I mean he was pretty solid. Yeah, we didn't chart 435 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: Maha the way we charted Dan, but he was at 436 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: but next year, but he did not. He did not 437 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: miss off and if at all, definitely, I mean I 438 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: know that. And that's again for the millionth time, Like 439 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: everybody that covers this team was very impressed by what 440 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: Brett Maher did. We just didn't think it would lead 441 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: to him getting a job. I thought it would lead 442 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: him getting a job, just not just not here yet. 443 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: I thought he was definitely gonna be on a team 444 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: that's not come this week. But obviously he's on the Cowboys, 445 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: all right? Oh sorry, just the nature of the position, 446 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: like you loved or hated, no matter who you are, 447 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: doesn't matter who that he's following Dan Bailey. Well, I 448 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 1: wanted to move on to I wanted to get y'all's 449 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: gut feeling later, y'all, y'alls got feeling later, But for 450 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 1: right now. Who will make the most impact, the biggest 451 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: impact in this specific game this weekend as far as 452 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, doesn't matter. Offense, defense, defense, offense, whatever you want. 453 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: I mean, can we take the obvious off the table? 454 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I think, I mean, Zeke's gonna make a 455 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: big impact. Yeah, I'm gonna say Zeke GE's fine, No 456 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: you can't. I'll go with Tavon Austin that I said 457 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: that earlier and we did another round table. I guess, 458 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: and I think I think Tavon Austin is going to 459 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,239 Speaker 1: be this really important what they do with him, not 460 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: only for this game, but to set the tone for 461 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 1: the for future games for the rest of this season. Um, 462 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: you know, if they're gonna use him in a dynamic way, 463 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: he's got to do something with the ball the first 464 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 1: time he gets one of those jet sweeps and reverses, 465 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: and you know, if he can get ten fifteen yards 466 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: and just show that that's a that's a play that 467 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: teams have to watch out for. It's only gonna help 468 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 1: Zeke when they fake it. I think they're gonna fake 469 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: the ball to Tavon more than they give it to him. 470 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,479 Speaker 1: But but still, you've got to be able to do 471 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: something with him. He's this player I've been asking for 472 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: for years. Let's do something with him. Let's see what happens. 473 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 1: So I'll be looking at Tavon, I will say Jalen Smith, 474 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: because I think this is gonna be a week where 475 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna really test out what we think we've seen 476 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: so far. He's got a running back. I mean, he's 477 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: got a quarterback that's a mobile quarterback. He's got a 478 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: running back that likes to run passes out of the backfield. 479 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: He's got a tight end that's really good that he's 480 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: gonna probably have to carry sometimes. All three of those 481 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: things mixed together means this linebacker is gonna have to 482 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: be really good if the Cowboys gonna ask success. We're 483 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: gonna find out right now whether Jalen Smith can really 484 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 1: play or not. And how good time, how long he's 485 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: always long? He got there right, and so he's gonna 486 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: he's gonna get tested this week in a lot of 487 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: different ways. So that's the guy. I think if the 488 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: Cowboys have success, it will be because Jayala has a 489 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: really good game. I hate myself for saying this because 490 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: it's the opposite of what I like to do, but 491 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: I'm pushing all my chips in on the table. Randy Gregory, Wow, Okay, 492 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 1: think he's gonna have enough. That's how many I think. 493 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: This is a banged up Carolina line. Khalil's out. You 494 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: got Taylor Moten playing left tackle, DeMarcus Lawrence has earned 495 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: the respect of being the guy that you scheme for. 496 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: They're gonna chip him, They're gonna put people on his side. 497 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: That's awesome because Randy Gregory should have a favorable one 498 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: on one type of situation where he can drastically impact 499 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: this game. And again, I mean, it's preseason, it's training camp. 500 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 1: I get it, but the guy looked impressive and I'm 501 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: gonna choose to believe that he can carry that into 502 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: a game. And I'm excited to see if he can, 503 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 1: because if he plays the way he did for the 504 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,959 Speaker 1: last month, the Panthers are gonna have nightmares about him 505 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: for weeks. Do you hear what DeMarcus Lawrence said when 506 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: they asked him at the injury issues that Panthers have it, 507 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: he just said, not my problem. He actually said, he said, 508 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: we're not going to cry for him. We'll pray for him, 509 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: but we're not We're not we're for him. He has 510 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: and you know what, what I like about what we're seeing. 511 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: And he talked a little bit also about his contract 512 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: and how what Levian Bell is doing and as the franchise. 513 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 1: He said that there's different ways to go about it. Um, 514 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: it didn't sound like you know, he thinks it'll ever 515 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,959 Speaker 1: get that part with them. But but in the meantime, 516 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: he's showing some leadership skills that I think the Cowboys team, 517 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: you know, team and organization needs to kind of, you know, 518 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 1: keep an eye on. I mean, you know, he wants 519 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: to kind of get these guys united. And then the nineties, 520 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,479 Speaker 1: the hot Boys, you know, he's calling them. But I 521 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: think I think we're really seeing that he's not worried 522 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: about while I'm on a one year deal, I'm out 523 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 1: to do. I'm playing for me. I mean, he is 524 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 1: like all of them, but I think he's playing from 525 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 1: a team aspect, and I think if he has a 526 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: good year, I think the Cowboys would be foolish to 527 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 1: try to get any kind of, you know issue with him. 528 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 1: He said, he signed the deal early. I'll sign it, 529 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: I'll play for seventeen million. I ain't worried about it. 530 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: I like his approach to this whole thing. Yeah, it's 531 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,239 Speaker 1: and we talked about that the other day, Like I 532 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 1: tend to side with players in those situations, Like I understand, 533 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 1: you know, there aren't a lot of guarantees in this job. 534 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 1: I would not have blamed DeMarcus if he had made 535 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,919 Speaker 1: an issue of it the way des did. And I 536 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 1: didn't blame Dez for doing that, but it was just 537 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 1: kind of refreshing the way he approached it. And this 538 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 1: is the way. There was no drama about it. He 539 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 1: was like, I'll sign it and I'll play. I'll get 540 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: my money later. But I mean it was you know, 541 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: he got hurt a little bit. He's done it some, 542 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 1: he's been suspended at some then he has a blow 543 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: up year. I mean, like it's hard for the Cowboys 544 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: just to say we're gonna put all our money in 545 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: on and do it a little bit again. Assuming assuming 546 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 1: he's remotely productive this year. And I don't even mean 547 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 1: matching or bettering what he did last year, but I 548 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: would be kind of surprised if they don't try to 549 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 1: get something done with him. I bet with less sacks. 550 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: You know, I just think he could be better because 551 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: then Gregory on the other side, these two guys are 552 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: playing together. I mean, and another thing to watch out 553 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: for is just I want to see what happens to 554 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 1: the tackle spot, because naturally it'll force camto the pocket. 555 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: These guys that got to hold their own. It's a 556 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: big day, a big moment for Antoine Woods and Ross 557 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: and Crawford. If he's in there and MALIEK. Collins has 558 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: been banged up, I mean this all eyes on the 559 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 1: tackle position. Yeah. I'm mentued to see how much they 560 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: use Malik because I really think if they d said 561 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: Rod said, fifteen to twenty snaps, that's not a whole lot. Well, 562 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,439 Speaker 1: I mean he just got back. I know. No, I 563 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: wasn't saying it's wrong. I'm saying that's just not a lot. 564 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: I don't know how much of an impact. Yeah, he 565 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: has a defensive tackle for fifteen twenty snaps. Maybe he does. 566 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. Crawford has got to play tackle them right, Oh, yeah, 567 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,719 Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. He is a tackle. This changes 568 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: this position. He's playing tackle. He's That's why when you 569 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 1: said maybe you could go without a defensive end, I 570 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: was thinking, there's really no way to do that because 571 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to be having him back 572 00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: and forth. I think he's a tackle. Yeah, especially if 573 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: consoling again fifteen Yeah, I think the only way he 574 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: plays defensive end at this point is either in special 575 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,239 Speaker 1: packages or if it gets to a situation where they 576 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: lose attack an end and they need him back at 577 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: end and they can bring somebody up at tackle. Who 578 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: would you go with? Who's your guy? Jay, Jay, Tay, Von, Randy, 579 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 1: Randy And I'll tell you mine when we come back 580 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: after the break. Nice tease.

We went 619 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: over the guys who all of us think will have 620 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: the biggest impact in this weekend's game. I was gonna 621 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: go with Connor Williams, which I'm hoping he doesn't have 622 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 1: like a fallback, you know, and doesn't want to welcome 623 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: to the NFL moment's type of thing. But I'm hoping 624 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: he will be able to handle his job and not 625 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: give any problems to Dak Prescott and let him especially 626 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 1: if it does rain and all that. I think that 627 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: that is the time or a weather condition where the 628 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 1: quarterback should have a little
