WEBVTT - Cowboys Break: #DALvsCAR Predictions 0:00:01.000 --> 0:00:03.480 The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 0:00:03.520 --> 0:00:06.680 and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Are you ready for 0:00:06.760 --> 0:00:10.440 a break? Yes? Are you ready for a break? Absolutely? 0:00:10.560 --> 0:00:14.760 Ready for a break? Yeah, and so much for that. 0:00:14.960 --> 0:00:20.120 It's time for the break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com 0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:26.400 with Nick Eatman, David Hellman, and bar Garcia and Derek Eagleton. 0:00:27.000 --> 0:00:31.080 Good morning, guys, Today is Friday, and Derek just joined us. 0:00:31.320 --> 0:00:36.520 Just in time. Yeah, right on time, Derek Nice. Well, 0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:40.920 the NFL has officially started the NFL season, and last 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:44.280 night we got to watch the Eagles against the Falcons. 0:00:44.720 --> 0:00:48.120 So how are you guys doing after watching the first game? 0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:52.680 I was better before I watched it, Honestly, why your life? 0:00:52.880 --> 0:00:58.840 Because any parts? Because it sucked. There were twenty five flags. 0:00:58.920 --> 0:01:01.400 Well that's yeah, that's so. I find a score eighteen twelve, 0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:05.160 Eagles win and the offenses look bad. Twenty five flags. 0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:09.399 NFL MVP Matt Ryan couldn't hit the broadside of a 0:01:09.480 --> 0:01:13.160 barn by his standards at least. Um. I just thought 0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:16.240 it really sucked. Nick doesn't think Matt Ryan's that good anyway, 0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:19.440 So I mean he's he's pretty good. I mean he 0:01:19.760 --> 0:01:21.520 is pretty good. I don't think he was the MVP 0:01:21.640 --> 0:01:22.880 of the league. I don't think he should have been 0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:25.639 MVP of the league that year. But he's pretty good 0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:27.840 until he gets down to the red zone against the 0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:29.639 Eagles with the game on the line or the season 0:01:29.680 --> 0:01:32.400 on the line, and he doesn't. He doesn't have They 0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:34.040 don't have an answer for that. But I mean, Eagles 0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:35.959 have a really good defense. They showed again, and I 0:01:35.959 --> 0:01:38.000 think the Falcons had a pretty good defense as well. 0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:42.959 So that defensive front, you know, defensive defense. Defensive football 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.160 does not bother me at all. I want. I grew 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:49.720 up watching the SEC. But twenty five flags barf. Yeah, 0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:53.640 not good. That's yeah, that's the NFL. That's what they do. 0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:56.040 I mean, that's they got all these rule changes and 0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:59.160 they're gonna show them too. This whole I'm gonna put 0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:01.120 as though it's a layer, like we got this new 0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:03.400 these new rules. We got to show your rule. But 0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:06.360 you can't put your body weight on a quarterback. So yeah, 0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:10.120 if you do that penalty. Well. One of the things 0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:13.280 that really upset me the most is this whole catch 0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:17.519 non catch thing. It is still really really bothering me, 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:20.760 especially the one that happened last night. And I'm sure 0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:23.639 you guys all agree that was a catch, right, Yes, 0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:29.799 Julio has cost me six point? What? What are you 0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:32.079 making a face? No? I mean I know when you're 0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:34.080 talking about, so it goes back. I just wanted to 0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:37.799 bring this whole thing. I mean again, there are key 0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:41.800 moments to games where obviously a catch can make the 0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:45.440 game count as far as winning or losing. And the 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:48.160 fact that it's so up in the air, and I 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:50.800 mean this catch was still reviewed and it was still 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:54.160 called off and non catch. That's what bothers me the 0:02:54.200 --> 0:02:57.160 most about it. It's one thing I don't expect referees 0:02:57.240 --> 0:02:59.720 to be so good to wear as quick as the 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:02.160 game is, that they're going to always get the call 0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:06.200 right in real time. What I do expect, though, is 0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:09.880 if we're all sitting at home watching an angle that 0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:12.639 clearly shows he had possession and control of the ball 0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:15.639 before his shoulder goes out of bounds, and we see this, 0:03:16.200 --> 0:03:18.680 how can you explain to me that the referee couldn't 0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:20.880 see the same thing. And that's the part that's so 0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:24.400 frustrating for fans is we now have technology that will 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:27.840 show us on television exactly what the referee should be 0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:29.680 able to see and when he comes to a different 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:32.200 conclusion than the rest of the world, it's like, how 0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:34.880 can you not see that? You know, it's amazing. The 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:37.480 biggest problem to me, it's in both college and pro 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:41.240 is because they still weigh heavily on what they think 0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:44.640 they saw initially and then and then one thousand percent. 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:46.880 You've got to make sure that that's it's not the same. 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:49.600 I think you need to get you under the hood 0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:52.240 or whatever they do now and just clear out what 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:54.800 it was called, look at it and make the call, 0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:58.400 because because the actual call on the field is actually 0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:00.600 being determined by what they do, because they can have 0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:02.760 a catch all upstairs, let's just call it a turnover, 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:05.960 because then that will automatically be reviewed and then we 0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:07.920 can figure it out. And I actually think the best 0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:10.680 way to do that is to have an arbitrary person 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.520 that is a basically a referee that sits in a 0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:16.240 booth behind a camera and when he looks at it, 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:18.120 he's not looking at it from standpoint what was the call? 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.480 He didn't care. He's looking at and saying, I'm watching 0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:24.280 this objectively for the first time, here's my assessment, and 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:26.000 here's how it should go right, And so if you 0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:28.320 have to go to the booth, this arbitrary person now 0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:31.440 makes that decision, rather than the person who is who's 0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:34.560 already made the call having to reverse themselves. Yeah. Well, 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:39.000 hopefully the Cowboys will have a better weekend and better 0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:42.520 referees there at the game. So before we move on 0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:44.320 and get into the game, I wanted to go over 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:48.479 a quick roster move that happened today. Parker. He was 0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:52.359 placed on ir the guard that I injured his knee yesterday, 0:04:52.560 --> 0:05:01.640 right Wednesday or anger? No, par's park Parker. And I 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:03.800 think the Cowboys are angered by the fact that they 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:06.560 actually traded for a guy who's not playing. Yeah, right, 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:10.400 so I can't feel good. Yes, now what now they 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:14.120 got a Kadima at words, they signed him back on 0:05:14.240 --> 0:05:18.039 the roster. So as far as that, I mean, that's 0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:22.000 just kinda to add depth there. And he's probably gonna play, right, 0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:25.760 He was practicing like a guy who was probably gonna play. Yeah, 0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:27.920 I mean, he's been here all through training. Cast if 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:29.839 he plays or he gets in the game, does anything. 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:31.800 I mean this is he knows that he's not gonna 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:33.840 be long for this team because they didn't even want 0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:36.760 him on the practice squad m But it came down 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:38.560 to Friday and they're like, okay, who can we put 0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:40.960 in that we knows in shape, knows, the team knows 0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:44.760 the plays ball out. Yeah, I mean here's your chance. Play. Well, 0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:47.239 maybe you can change their minds in the real games. 0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:50.960 Your chance. Okay, So let's quickly go over the inactives 0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:56.039 that we're expecting to be this weekend. Obviously Travis, then 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:03.919 Xavier Woods, Dagtone Jones. That's three. That's three that have 0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:07.080 to sit like they yes, they have to sit. Now, 0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:09.120 who would be the rest on that list? I think 0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:11.680 they'll have a third quarterback? I mean Mike White, Yeah, 0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:15.320 one of the quarterbacks probably Mike White. Mike White, Um, 0:06:16.520 --> 0:06:18.240 you know, one of the tight ends. Maybe you think 0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:20.640 it came down to the very end of practice that 0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:23.359 we saw, I mean the open part. I was looking 0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:25.840 at the special team stuff. I didn't see anything that 0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:28.240 they're neither one of them are playing. Schultz Rico is 0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:31.200 playing on a lot of special team stuff that we saw, 0:06:31.640 --> 0:06:33.760 so you couldn't tell they're not. To the very end, 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:35.880 did they do a little bit of first team or 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:39.719 a little bit like pat and go type stuff? Really 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:43.000 with Dak and Schultz was out there and Rico was 0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:45.839 kind of behind everything. That's the only thing that I 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:48.880 could see that would like, why would Schultz be running 0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:51.400 stuff with Dak if Rico's not? Yeah, I don't. I 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:53.479 don't know what they're gonna do with that. I gleaned 0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:56.520 toward thinking Rico's gonna play or be active at least 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:57.640 I can't. I mean, I don't know how much he's 0:06:57.640 --> 0:07:00.520 gonna play, but maybe they both are well, but I 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:03.479 after Mike White, I would throw Chris Covington in. I 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:07.880 think he probably sits, and then, um, who am I forgetting? Well, 0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:10.320 you don't really have a secondary guy you can know? 0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:12.960 Could there be one of the defensive linemen that possibly 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:17.360 offensive tackle? Maybe? I mean they got right now, eight 0:07:17.440 --> 0:07:20.560 or nine? Eight? If you got eight there, they're all 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:23.160 got to play, right, I mean, the one guy that 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:27.400 that could sit out would be Armstrong. If you had to, 0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:29.680 you could go with seven. But I know, typically first 0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.080 game of the year, I think, and it's gonna be warm, 0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:36.520 you like that rotation of eight. I don't think you 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:38.920 sit anybody there. I'm trying to think of what position 0:07:38.960 --> 0:07:41.800 they can go like they can actually do without a guy. 0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:45.160 You can sit Um, you can sit Adam Redmond your 0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:48.080 backup center because Zach Martin can play center. You have 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:50.240 kadeem who can back up at card if you need to. 0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:52.880 So you got what you got? Seven linemen. Yeah, I 0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:56.400 mean that's normal. That's in the NFL. Seven lineman dressed 0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:58.240 for a game. That gives you six guys, you still 0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:00.920 need one. And that's and I think if I had 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:04.080 to guess you sit a tight end, I don't know who. Yeah, 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:06.600 I would I would say Schultz because I think they're 0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:08.640 they're gonna want to see Rico. But that's just a guess. 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:10.320 If I got to choose, I think I can get 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:12.160 more out of Rico than I can get out of Schultz. 0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:14.880 If you were absolutely bound and determined to play all 0:08:14.880 --> 0:08:18.360 four tight ends, you could maybe sit Deontay Thompson. Of 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:20.560 all their receivers, I think he's the one that I mean, 0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:24.240 Jordan Lewis can return kicks, and Deonte is probably the 0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:26.480 least versatile of all of them, because I mean he's 0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:29.560 just straight speed to every one of those other guys 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:34.480 other than Terrence. Can they also play a slot. Terrence 0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:37.319 can play in the slots. Don't do it a lot. 0:08:37.360 --> 0:08:40.319 But yeah, that's what I'm saying is you've gotten to 0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:42.959 look at pretty much all those receivers inside and out. Yeah, 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:44.800 they've played everywhere. See like most of those others I've 0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:48.800 seen this camp, I've seen in inside and out, Deonte 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.480 is the one that he typically stays on the outside 0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:53.280 because that's I mean, that's what he's here for, is 0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:55.960 to take the top off the defense. So so you've 0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:59.640 got two backup corners and in uh Jordan Lewis and 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:07.280 Anthony Brown. Yeah, two backup safeties and her him and 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:11.280 try Robinson, So you really can't do anything with second seconds. 0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:13.440 Got to be the already moved Covington. That's six. Now 0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:17.440 you're down to six linebackers with Marshall Lillard all of them. 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:19.160 I really don't Yeah, I don't think you have a 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:21.199 ton of options other than you have take another tight 0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:24.520 end tight end or or the sixth. Well, who helps 0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:29.079 you more the most on special teams? Rico or Schultz. 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:33.680 I don't think either won When I told when I 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:35.480 talked to him a few days ago, I mean he 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:39.720 said that basically one of his biggest roles would be 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:42.200 helping out on special teams. They were both working on 0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:44.319 punt team today. I mean like they can both do it. 0:09:44.480 --> 0:09:47.920 They're just I don't trust either one of them that much. 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.080 But you saw them on punt team. They were both 0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:55.160 working on special teams. Yeah, with the jerseys on, with 0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:59.040 one one on and one off. Yeah. Well, what I 0:09:59.040 --> 0:10:01.600 saw was and that's what you look for, is who's 0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:03.920 doing the actual scout team and who's actually doing the 0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:06.440 real punt team. In from what I saw, I couldn't 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:08.599 see either one of them doing the stuff. Maybe I 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:10.440 missed a little bit of the first part of it, though. 0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:13.120 I just get the feel from what I saw today 0:10:13.240 --> 0:10:16.880 they're leaning towards Schultz. But if you listen to some 0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:18.800 of the stuff Jerry said, and he's just kind of 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:20.760 hinted about it, and it sounds like it could be 0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:23.000 more rico. But let's assume for a second they carry 0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:25.400 for who can be that last guy he just said, 0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:30.240 Deancey Thompson or one receiver or some receiver. Deontay's only 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:33.000 one other than Terrence. Yeah, that was gonna say, unless 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:36.079 you want Terrence to be inactive, which wouldn't shock me. Again, 0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:38.880 I said, I don't think. I don't think. I don't 0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:41.640 think it was a coincidence that we didn't see him 0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:43.920 running with the first team a lot. I don't think 0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:46.520 that's a coincidence that he's the guy that probably gives 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:50.000 you the least amount of everything versatility for sure. Yeah, 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:53.480 but he's got the most experience. Would be fairly surprised 0:10:53.480 --> 0:10:55.839 if the only guy who's been here for any length 0:10:55.840 --> 0:10:59.360 of time is a single. He had a pretty good 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:04.320 training camp, limited for how they Okay, yes, for for 0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:06.760 obviously he was injured and stuff. But when he did 0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:09.240 come back and the times that he was out there, 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:12.520 he made it. You know, he took advantage of that time. 0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:14.720 And but but that's I guess that's the part that 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.960 still was just kind of baffling to me. Did I 0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:19.680 agree with you? I think when he was out there, 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:21.959 I saw him make a couple of catches. But the 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:25.599 issue was he never was enough for him to consistently 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:28.400 be working with the first team, even even after he 0:11:28.440 --> 0:11:30.880 got back and was healthy, and he just it seemed 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:32.720 like they were using him a lot more with the 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:34.640 second team than the first team. I feel like we 0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:38.079 have differing opinions on this, Like no, I just nobody 0:11:38.120 --> 0:11:40.080 in this receiver corps was like a staple with the 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:42.960 first team, except for maybe Cole Beasley when he's healthy. Yeah, 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:45.199 Like Alan Hearn spent a lot of time with the 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:48.120 second team. Michael Gallup was all over. Michael Gallup was 0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:50.320 going with the threes twos. And did you remember seeing 0:11:50.440 --> 0:11:52.440 Williams a lot with the first team though, I guess 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:53.880 that's the point. I didn't see him a lot with 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:55.640 the first team. I know everybody was kind of working 0:11:55.640 --> 0:11:59.720 with I don't remember seeing him exclusively with the second 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:01.960 team to the point where it made an impression on me, 0:12:02.120 --> 0:12:05.080 you know what I mean, Like, I literally I don't 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:07.600 think they know what to expect from this receiver. Corps 0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:10.840 and Dak, Like, we talked to Dak about it yesterday 0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:13.280 and he basically was like, well, we'll see whoever's in 0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:17.440 there at the moment. Huh. Like that works, that's the 0:12:17.440 --> 0:12:20.240 fun of it. We're gonna We're gonna get some answers 0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:22.959 finally on Sunday. Hopefully they're good answers. Let's take it 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:26.520 could be Dorance Armstrong. If you think about Tyrone Crawford 0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:31.160 being a tackle and an end, you could you could 0:12:31.520 --> 0:12:34.120 still only have now seven guys and I think you 0:12:34.160 --> 0:12:36.440 know a warm climate and the way they like to 0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:40.319 use their defensive lyon I think they want to be 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:49.360 able to rotate those guys around. That's just rotate. Okay, well, 0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:54.640 never mind put him, yeah, let him play, Okay and kick, 0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:57.199 but okay, let's take our first break.

We try to figure 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:06.200 out the enactors, but I guess we'll just have to 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:13.520 wait and see until the game. Yet that's not true. 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:16.760 We we're gonna like somebody we mentioned is gonna be 0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:19.000 inactive like we got it. Oh yeah, we'll get one 0:15:19.080 --> 0:15:20.760 for sure, but also wouldn't be shot if it's somebody 0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:23.120 else we didn't mention. They've surprised me before within it. Yeah, 0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:26.120 so we'll see, okay, especially this first game, second game, 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:28.160 when you're trying they're trying to figure out, you know, 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:31.480 what they're doing. So so it is expected to rain, 0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:35.320 and we saw how the rain affected last night's game, 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:38.080 which was a night Mary. Hopefully that doesn't happen this 0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:41.760 weekend for our game. But as far as the rain goes, 0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:45.120 I know we discussed yesterday how maybe this was the 0:15:45.160 --> 0:15:48.080 one game where it would be best for Dak Prescott 0:15:48.120 --> 0:15:51.400 to throw passes down the field and kind of take 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:54.680 advantage over the passing game rather than the running game 0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:58.480 a little bit because of the defense in over there. 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:03.680 So how how much will this change this whole passing 0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:07.120 game when he comes out to rain and and Dad 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:10.120 kind of commented talked about it yesterday a little bit, 0:16:10.120 --> 0:16:13.680 and that he has played in raining before. Yeah, they 0:16:13.680 --> 0:16:16.600 played in a freaking monsoon in DC last year that 0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:20.240 was gross, which, um, I don't know. I mean, you know, 0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:22.680 Jason Garrett loves to say you focus on yourself and 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:25.760 don't let the outside elements dictate what you do. They were, 0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:28.000 which that's not one hundred percent true, because they were 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:30.920 soaking the balls in water today at practice just to 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:33.560 get a feel for what working with a wet football 0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:36.560 is like. But it's it's a fifty percent chance, Like 0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:39.320 I'm not I'm not going to change up my stuff 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:41.640 just because it might rain. I mean, if it does start, 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:44.000 that's and that's what they did in Washington last year 0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:46.800 is like it just was relentless all through the second half, 0:16:46.840 --> 0:16:48.960 and they changed what they were doing they stopped asking 0:16:49.360 --> 0:16:51.960 Dak to be throwing these long balls down the field, 0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:54.480 and I think I think Zeke set a career high 0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:56.320 for carries in that game because they were just trying 0:16:56.320 --> 0:16:58.840 to get through it. Which if that's the case, then 0:16:58.880 --> 0:17:00.600 you've got a great running game you can lean on. 0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:03.880 But I'm not changing my game plan on Friday because 0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:06.040 I'm worried about what might happen on Sunday. And it's 0:17:06.040 --> 0:17:08.359 also a rare occurrence when you get to a game 0:17:08.480 --> 0:17:12.119 and it's just a consistent hard downpour the entire game. 0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:15.760 Right It's you know, if it's fifty percent chance you 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:17.920 might get some rain at some point during the game, 0:17:18.320 --> 0:17:20.760 it might let up, it might be heavy. The one 0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:22.959 thing I've noticed about the NFL football, these guys are 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:25.720 so skilled. A little bit of rain, I don't think 0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:27.560 affects the passing game, to be honest with you, a 0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:30.760 whole lot. I think when you start having those downpours, yeah, 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:33.199 that could be very difficult to be able to work in. 0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:35.399 But it's rare that you have a game where you 0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:39.119 have a consistent hard downpour the entire game, So I 0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:41.159 think it'll be fine. I agree with Dave. You go in, 0:17:41.240 --> 0:17:42.879 you just do what you're gonna do, and if you 0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:45.040 have to adjust in game, you adjust in game. But 0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:46.560 I think for the most part, you just go in 0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:50.600 with your plan. I think the word adjust adjust, right. 0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:52.720 I think the biggest issue is going to be the 0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:56.000 kicking game and just and punning and the kicking and 0:17:56.040 --> 0:17:59.360 with you know, your new place kicker. And I think 0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:04.840 was that the first game that the new kicker, Mike Nugend. Yeah, 0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:06.880 he was kicking in that game too, and I think 0:18:06.880 --> 0:18:09.239 he he made most of him. He might have missed one. 0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:11.520 I think he went either went three out of four 0:18:11.600 --> 0:18:14.960 or four out of five first start there, but that 0:18:15.080 --> 0:18:17.480 probably goes down to red zone and not being able 0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:20.199 to really throw the ball in there. And and so 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:23.280 it's gonna come down to that with kicking. So good luck. 0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:25.479 I mean, he already got pressure that you have to 0:18:25.480 --> 0:18:28.720 make every kick for the next two years, but now 0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:30.880 you got your first game is gonna be in the rain. 0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:33.840 He'll be fine. This is not setting up to be 0:18:35.440 --> 0:18:38.680 favorable for this young man. Just the whole way everything 0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:41.560 went down worries me. I don't want buy it, you know, 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:45.199 because he's well, he's not fortunate in this regard. But 0:18:45.800 --> 0:18:48.200 in a weird way. He's fortunate in the sense that 0:18:48.560 --> 0:18:52.960 guess what if Dan Bailey sucked, Like he would get 0:18:52.960 --> 0:18:55.280 cut to like if he if he struggled and missed 0:18:55.320 --> 0:18:59.399 kicks early on, Like you're your margin for error is 0:18:59.440 --> 0:19:01.679 so him when you're a kicker in the NFL, Like 0:19:02.440 --> 0:19:04.919 this is a pressure packed job. Like if he's missing 0:19:05.000 --> 0:19:07.640 kicks and he didn't replace Dan Bailey, he's gonna get cut. 0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:11.080 The Bucks cut Roberto Oguyo, who they traded up for 0:19:11.280 --> 0:19:14.240 to get in the second round after like but he's 0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:17.080 but what I'm but point being like they sunk a 0:19:17.119 --> 0:19:19.400 lot of resources into him and he wasn't doing the job, 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:21.920 and they're like, you're out. Sorry, he's horrible though he 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:26.600 was like really really bad. If nothing like camp, you 0:19:26.680 --> 0:19:29.280 do not have job security as an NFL kicker, even 0:19:29.320 --> 0:19:31.359 if you're like one of the best ever. If Justin 0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:34.000 if Justin Tucker has only hit four out of ten 0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:37.680 in October, he might get a leash because how good 0:19:37.680 --> 0:19:39.640 he's been. But like it ain't gonna be that long. 0:19:39.720 --> 0:19:42.320 Think about Blair Walsh out in Minnesota fix nays Ago, 0:19:42.480 --> 0:19:44.360 like he was a really really one of the best 0:19:44.359 --> 0:19:46.040 in the league and then he had a year where 0:19:46.080 --> 0:19:48.359 he fell apart and guess what, the next year he 0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:50.360 was gone. That's what we always say, like, I mean, 0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:52.560 I know we were all shocked by Dan getting cut, 0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:56.040 but i we've had conversations before or about typically when 0:19:56.119 --> 0:19:58.000 kickers lose it, they lose it, and you can go 0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:00.600 from being a pro bowler to unemployed not a long 0:20:00.640 --> 0:20:02.320 amount of time. And the fact that they and the 0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:04.159 reason why they did it, I mean I've kind of 0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.680 been still been asking about it is that they feel 0:20:06.680 --> 0:20:09.080
