00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: The following. He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Are you ready for

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:12,040
Speaker 1: a break? Are you ready for a break? Absolutely ready

4
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: for a break. Yeah, and so much for that. It's

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:21,880
Speaker 1: time for the Break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com with

6
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: Nick Eatman, David Hellman, and bar Garcia and Derek Eagleton. Hello, guys,

7
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: we are back today. We're gonna talk about game day

8
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,840
Speaker 1: predictions and all that fun stuff. But before we get

9
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 1: into it, how about them Cleveland Brown Shout out Brown Wow,

10
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: shout out. I've never been so hyped for a game

11
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: and it didn't involve a team I care about. So

12
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: they've turned their first game Sincember. They beat the Jets,

13
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: and that was pretty exciting. I mean, I'm surprised they

14
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: are still Browns fans out there, but there were a

15
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: ton of themselves. Honestly, you're saying some hardcore fans in

16
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: Cleveland you would really hardcore. You would jump ship on

17
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: the Cowboys if it wins South like that, You're just like,

18
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: I'm not going to root for this. Well, it's different.

19
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: The Cowboys do win games, but but what if they didn't.

20
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what that's what fans are for, Like,

21
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: you can't leave your team like three years no wins.

22
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: I mean, miserable fans, bro because of LSU. You know

23
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 1: about that life. I don't even come at me, Garcia,

24
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: that's the most ignorant thing you've ever said. Wow, we

25
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 1: haven't missed a bowl game since like nineteen ninety nine.

26
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: I'll admit it. I don't know anything about college football,

27
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: but I do know that what is it? SMU loses

28
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: games all the time they do, and LSU loses game

29
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: a lot of the time. I'm about to freak out.

30
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: That's not even close to being the same thing. I'm

31
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: just enjoying. I'm back and forth. But anyway, it's the

32
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: Browns are celebrating today after did you watch the game

33
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: day whole thing? Yeah, the whole thing, And you said

34
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: you were watched most of it. I had a little time,

35
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: I couldn't watch it, but I watched most of it.

36
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: So based on what you've seen in the past and

37
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: now this game changer with this new quarterback, what are

38
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: the expectations now that we need to talk a lot

39
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: about the Browns right now, but it changes. I was

40
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: actually kind of shocked that Baker played as well as

41
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: he did when he got in there. I mean, Dave,

42
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: you've been saying, and I give you all credit, you've

43
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: been saying forever. No. You said when they made the

44
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 1: draft pick, you were like, he's gonna be good for them,

45
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: And I remember us having that conversation. I was like,

46
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: I'm not buying it. I have to see it. I

47
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: wasn't expecting to be that good. I love Baker, but

48
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: anybody that says they expected him to go in in

49
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 1: the middle of a game, I don't care if it

50
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: is the New York Jets, like seventeen to twenty three

51
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: for two hundred and there were a couple throws there

52
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: that were like wow, leading them down, letting them back

53
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: from fourteen nothing to win. I mean even I wouldn't

54
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: have predicted he would be that good. And yeah, like

55
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: he I mean he was slinging the rock like it was. Yeah,

56
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: it was impressive. It definitely was impressive. And I think

57
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: we're impressive. Those those over there on Brown's break today,

58
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: they got a lot to talk about. They're pretty excited

59
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: right now, would expect which it's only one game. Hey,

60
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: for all the haters out there, like Dak has played

61
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: games like that, before. So don't you know he's not

62
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: He's not the second Coming because of that game. He's

63
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: gonna have his struggles. They're gonna quote unquote figure him

64
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: out too. That's what the NFL does. But no, like

65
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: I would be so pumped if I was a Browns

66
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 1: fantas see DeShawn Lesson. Yeah, well, congratulations to them, Jimmy Garoppolo,

67
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: Go Brownies, Go Browns. Okay, so let's jump into the inactives.

68
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: Who we think we'll be inactive this week. Cole Beasley

69
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: did pop up yesterday with a limited um. He was

70
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: limited in practice with an ankle injury, and I mean

71
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: I don't know the severity of it. He was taking

72
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: part in practice today actually, like I got, I have

73
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: so many things going on on a Friday morning. Not

74
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: to pat myself on the back, but I didn't even

75
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: make it to practice today. But he did take part

76
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: in the open portion of practice today. I know that

77
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: thinks to Twitter. So he's out there. I'm not super

78
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: worried about him, I don't think So, who are you

79
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: worried about it? You're worried about Millie Collins. Yeah, I

80
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: don't think Millie Collins is well, he hasn't practiced. Yeah, right,

81
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: he hasn't practiced. Um, so got him out. Then what

82
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 1: about Sean Lee? Sean he was limited yesterday. Sean says

83
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 1: he's playing. Jerry says he's playing. He moved from did

84
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: not practice to limited yesterday. Okay, can I ask you

85
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: a question? And you you've been You're obviously a beat writer,

86
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: so you kind of are in the mix. So what's

87
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: the deal? Was it a what was the deal with

88
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: his hamstring? Is it? Is it a hamstring? Is it

89
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 1: a cramp? And it keeps kind of going back? Did

90
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: you hear did you hear what Sean said yesterday? Yeah?

91
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: I kind of read a little bit of it, so

92
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 1: described as hamstring tightness on Sunday, Right, Sean came back

93
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: and he was like, I really thought it was more

94
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: of a cramp and bait. I mean, I don't want

95
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: to put words in Sean Lee's mouth, but like, and

96
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: you could even see during the game he was like

97
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 1: arguing with the medical stat like he didn't want to

98
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: go in the tent and get looked at. So I

99
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: imagine a scenario where he's like it's fine, I'm fine,

100
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 1: I'm cramping and they're like whatever, you got hamstring issues,

101
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: but you know you need Yeah, we need to look

102
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: at you. And so I think that's just an agreement.

103
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: You agree to disagree about what's wrong. So he's still

104
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: he still believes and wholeheartedly believes there was a cramp.

105
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: The quote of the week probably was, um, somebody asked

106
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: him that yesterday, were like, is it a cramp in

107
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: your hand? Like what's going on? And Sean was like,

108
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: it's a cramp in my hamstring, and like everybody's like,

109
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 1: that's not how that works, Like, you don't cramp in

110
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 1: your hamstring. As far as I'm aware, I just think

111
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 1: that's different. I think Sean is just trying to you know,

112
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: I mean and rightfully so, like alarm bells go off

113
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: when you hear Sean Lee hamstring. So I think he's

114
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 1: just trying to do his part to allay that concern.

115
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 1: He doesn't want people freaking out. All the way that

116
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 1: he allays that concern is he comes out and he plays.

117
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: He's playing, rights saying so if he can play, then

118
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,479
Speaker 1: you're like, okay, it was a cramp. Yeah. If he

119
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 1: can't play, then you're like, and he might be off

120
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: for six weeks. We'll see it's yeah, but he's I

121
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: expect him to play, all right, good, good, Well he

122
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 1: said he would play, but then Jerry, I don't know,

123
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: he still said that it was hit about him and

124
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: who else was it that he Gregory and and you know,

125
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 1: teams don't want to give that away for game planning purposes,

126
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: and also which I feel like Jerry has kind of

127
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: changed his tune about that in recent years. Like I think,

128
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: you know, Jerry at one point in time would just

129
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, he's gonna play, but now I think

130
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: he kind of defers to his coaching staff like, well,

131
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 1: I'm not going to give up the goose on Friday

132
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: morning when you know, we're trying to take this thing

133
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: to Sunday. So he said Randy Gregory and Xavier Woods

134
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: are game time decisions, but he said he feels very

135
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: optimistic that they'll be available. Me reading between lines, I

136
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: think they'll both play and both of practice this week.

137
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: So you would hope, you would hope that you're progressing.

138
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: Would be disappointing if they didn't. Yeah, so this will

139
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: be a little bit of a different week because when

140
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,479
Speaker 1: you start looking at inactives, yeah, you don't have the

141
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: same number umber of guys that are injured that make

142
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: your your inactive list a little. It kind of creates

143
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: it for you. Right So basically, I mean right now,

144
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: he's Millie Collins, Trevis Travis Frederick. I think those are

145
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: both very good bets. Mike White and every week is

146
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: gonna be y. So then you got four you got

147
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: to come up with that are healthy scratches. I think

148
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 1: if Sean Lee is gonna play, that means you probably

149
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: don't need Chris Covington. I don't think he got into

150
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: the game against the Giants the other night. I don't

151
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,239
Speaker 1: think so he was active, but I don't think he played,

152
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: so okay, so i'd be Chris Covington. You got four,

153
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: need three more. You pick an interior offensive lineman. Maybe

154
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: you know Xavier sue A Philo, he's been here for

155
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: a little while. Maybe he gets in or Adam Redmond,

156
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: whichever of those, one of the two, one of the two, um,

157
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: one of the two tight ends. Probably again, take your pick.

158
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: I hope Rico's up again to think he showed he

159
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: didn't really show anything, but just he had the opportunities

160
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: were there that I hope he gets another shot. I no,

161
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: go ahead, I was just gonna say, surely, and I

162
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: was moving on to the next position, and then you

163
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: have to sit a receiver. I don't know how you don't,

164
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: but no, that's that's an interesting question though, if right

165
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: now you were you were faced with that question, which

166
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: of those guys you think you put down? If everything

167
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: is okay with Terrence, which so I mean, it's it's

168
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: it's always so convoluted with the Cowboys. But you know

169
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: reports the surface last night that he was facing a suspension,

170
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: and I think you know, when you add a seventh

171
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: receiver that's familiar with the scheme in the middle of

172
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,079
Speaker 1: the week, that is something in your mind immediately goes

173
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 1: to I don't think anybody would be smitching that yesterday. Yeah,

174
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: super surprised. But the Cowboys don't appear to agree with that.

175
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones said he didn't know. You know, He's like,

176
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: I don't know about the accuracy of that. It would

177
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: be bad if we didn't have Terrence, but we're counting

178
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 1: on having him, So I don't know what to make

179
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: of that. Yeah, And to be honest with you, it

180
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be anything. No, I think it's just

181
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: again because of the nature of it, and this is

182
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,439
Speaker 1: what we were talking about yesterday because of the nature

183
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: of how it all came about with Bryce. Then all

184
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 1: of a sudden they add a seventh receiver when they

185
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 1: didn't think they need it one at first, and otherwise

186
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: nothing has changed other than two games of play, where okay,

187
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: is it because you think you need more help at

188
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: wide receiver, or is because something's going to happen with

189
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: Terrence because you know at some point the league's gonna

190
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: have a ruling one way or the other one Terrence.

191
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: In a way, it's a lot like the Zeke situation

192
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: last year. It's just nowhere near as high profile, one

193
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: because it's nowhere near as serious of a situation, and

194
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: two because Terrence is nowhere near is important to your team.

195
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: So but I'm you know, let's say that happens, and

196
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: I have no idea, but it might not happen this week.

197
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 1: It could happen next week, and that could just be

198
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,719
Speaker 1: them trying to get ahead of it. I don't know.

199
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: That's what makes the most sense. Terrence has done so

200
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: little this season that you could sit him, or you know,

201
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: depending on how Bryce practiced this week, you could sit him,

202
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: like if he looked terrible. If he looked like a

203
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: guy who hasn't been practicing for a month, maybe you

204
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 1: sit him, or maybe he looked great and he gives

205
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: you something that you don't have, so you sit. I

206
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: think it would have to be one of those two.

207
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 1: You don't think it would be a have a hard

208
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: time thinking it would be, have a hard time believing

209
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: it would be anybody else, Like it's it's not gonna

210
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: be Tavon, It's not gonna be Gallop, It's not gonna

211
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 1: be Coal unless Cole's hurt. Wait, right, he's practicing, so

212
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt. Um

213
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: Deonte Thompson's played more snaps than anybody, and those four

214
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: seemed pretty steady. Can't imagine it would be Alan Hearns.

215
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: I know Alan Hearns hasn't had like this crazy stat line,

216
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 1: but none of them really. But they're not gonna sit

217
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: all I make him inactive. I wouldn't. I don't for

218
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 1: a guy that just got here this week. I would

219
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 1: think it's either Terrence or Bryce unless Cole can't go right,

220
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: So that's yeah, So I'm gonna guess. I'm gonna guess.

221
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: Mike White, Bryce, Adam Redmond, MALIEK. Collins, Travis Frederick, Chris Covington,

222
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: who'd I forget? Oh? And Dalton Schultz. Sorry, there you go.

223
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: I can ask you this. Um, Let's assume for a

224
00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: second that the Cowboys had to play a week and

225
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:00,839
Speaker 1: may mean maybe not this week, but had to play

226
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: a week without Cole Beasley. Do you think that they

227
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: would use um ideally? Would they use um Tavon in

228
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: that role as your slot guy or because Hearns can

229
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: play the slot, will he be the guy that primarily

230
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: would be in there? Who do you think would kind

231
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: of jump into that role if Cole weren't available. I

232
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 1: would hope it would be Tavon, just because he's got

233
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: that quickness. That's what makes Cole so valuable as a guy.

234
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: You know, it's not that he's fast to say he's quick.

235
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: Tavon's both, but like is Alan, Hearn's really going to

236
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: create that instant separation with his quick feet, you know,

237
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: within five yards of the line of scrimmage. I don't know.

238
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,719
Speaker 1: I doubt it. Um. I would hope it's Tavon, And

239
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 1: Tavon has shown that he can do that again. You know,

240
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 1: he hasn't He hasn't needed to. I guess he's only

241
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: played eighteen snaps that's his season high. So but that's

242
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: what I would do. Well, he's the next man up

243
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: closest to doing that kind right, He's the closest skill

244
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:57,479
Speaker 1: set to what Cole is. Yeah, so that's a fair assumption. Okay,

245
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: before we're going to break and this might be a

246
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: longer discussion, I wanted to touch on Chris Rashard and

247
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 1: we talked about it a little bit yesterday. He did

248
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: talk to Scott Linahan, you know, helping out game plan

249
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: this whole thing. So he's an important guy this week,

250
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: not only for the defense but also for the offense.

251
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: How big of an impact can we expect from him

252
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: and the offense being able to give those insight information

253
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: from the time that he was at Seattle. I asked

254
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: Jason Garrett about that yesterday and he shockingly downplayed it.

255
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 1: He was like, oh, always, well, there's interpersonal relationships all

256
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 1: over the league and that's just a thing, blah blah blah.

257
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: And then I asked Scott Linahan about it and he

258
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 1: was like, Chris has been great. He gave up every No, dude,

259
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: I would sometimes I hear things that I would I

260
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: would just pay so much money to be a fly

261
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: on the wall. So Lenahan, Lenahan's like, yeah, he came

262
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: in and we watched because Chris Richard was with Seattle

263
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 1: for every game that Lenahan has coached against the Seahawks.

264
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: So that's three games, the Classic in fourteen, the ugly

265
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: loss in fifteen, and then last year's Christmas Eve game.

266
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: He's like, he came in, we watched all three games,

267
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: and he went through the whole game with me and

268
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: told me, like, you know how the Seahawks like to

269
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: prep for us, and what they think they can do

270
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,959
Speaker 1: against us, and tendencies and all this other stuff. And

271
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: I was like, man, the football dorc and me, I

272
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: would pay an extravagant amount of money to just get

273
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: to watch that. I think it would be so cool.

274
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: And here's the deal. I'm not under the illusion that

275
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: this doesn't happen all across the league. Like, here's it.

276
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: There are all those relationships, here's the difference. The difference is,

277
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: I don't trust it. Every coach is smart enough or

278
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 1: has a handle enough on what's happening with his old

279
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: team to really be able to break it. Down as

280
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: well as as at least I perceived Chris Rashard. Not

281
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: only that, but like, okay, cool, you coached linebackers in

282
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 1: Philly for a year and a half, Like big whoop.

283
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: That's not the same Chris Roshard was. He wasn't the

284
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 1: architect of that defense. Dan Quinn was. But like Chris

285
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: Rashard was in charge of that defense for like four years,

286
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: and he was the coach of the Legion of Boom

287
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: for three years before that, Like, he knows everything about

288
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: how they want to play defense, and also he knows

289
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 1: everything about how they schemed for this offense for years.

290
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: And I know the quarterback has changed blah blah blah,

291
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: but Lenahan's been calling it since since then, so he

292
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: probably has a lot of information about how the Seahawks

293
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: might prefer to play them exactly. And and I trust

294
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: based upon just the results of what I've seen from

295
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: this defense, which I attribute so much of what we're

296
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 1: seeing this year from this defense. I think this defense

297
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: was good last year. I think this defense has a

298
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: potential to be great this year. And according to the

299
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 1: things that I that I heard yesterday, it sounds like

300
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: much of that is attributed at least from a coaching

301
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 1: side of it, to Chris Richard, and not only is coaching,

302
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: but his ability to call make call play calls during

303
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: the game because they mean Lena, I mean, I'm sorry.

304
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: Marinelli basically said as much yesterday though he's the one

305
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: that's making these calls. The reason why they're blitzing so

306
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: much it is because he's making these calls. So he

307
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: has quickly made an impact on this d defense and

308
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: taking this defense to the point now to where I

309
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: heard a commented earlier today say that that fearsome front,

310
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: that fearsome Dallas front. When's the last time you heard that, right?

311
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 1: It sounds pretty nice. Yeah, but I'm saying that's but

312
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: that's that's what people are thinking right now around This

313
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: is a national guy. That's what people are thinking right

314
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: now about this defense. Scared. The last time anybody said

315
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: that about this defense was when Where and Spencer were

316
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: your ends and Ratliffe was going to Pro Bowls at

317
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: nose tackle. Yeah that was that was a Super Bowl

318
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,760

367
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: for this game. I wanted to ask you that, guys,

368
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: do you expect this to finally be the time for

369
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: Rico Gathers to make that game catching ball that will

370
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 1: break the internet? Game catching ball however you want awarded?

371
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, Just catch a ball, catch a

372
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: ball that means something. I gotta I know. I know

373
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: it was right there for him, and it's not his

374
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,400
Speaker 1: fault that Dak should have hit him. No, I gotta.

375
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 1: I gotta see it to believe it, to be honest

376
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: with you, like, even though it should have happened last week,

377
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: I gotta see it. You don't think this is it? Well,

378
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: we don't even know for sure if he's going to

379
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: be active. So oh, you're just is this the law

380
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: of attraction? You're just like Rico to the active roster.

381
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 1: I'm just expecting him to be I think that after

382
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: them seeing how close it was, and given the fact

383
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: that it was more Dak's fault not to make it

384
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 1: happen and get that touch I think that they saw that,

385
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: you know, okay, we do have the opportunity here, we

386
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: can make this happen. And from what I hear, I

387
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: mean they keep practicing this thing between them too, So

388
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: I'm expecting them to keep him active and give him

389
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: more chances for this to happen. I hope. So I'm

390
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: gonna go out on a limb and I'm gonna say

391
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,640
Speaker 1: by the end of this year, Rico will have five touchdowns. Whoa,

392
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: we have five touch based on bet on what, just

393
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: based on the fact that I believe he just has

394
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: too much skill and ability for them not to figure

395
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: out how to use him in the red touchdown. Put

396
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 1: money on five touchdowns, one of those happening this weekend.

397
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 1: Anybody on this team besides Das have five touchdowns last year?

398
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: Did anybody on this team besides Das have five and

399
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: twenty six? Five? Yes, five five touchdowns. I'm telling you

400
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: five touchdowns. This year? We have fivedowns. Okay, I got

401
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: thirteen steak so ober here, Yeah, Okay, no, not serve it.

402
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,719
Speaker 1: Just keep it in the back of your brain. So

403
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 1: if this doesn't happen, what are you gonna give us?

404
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. But what am I

405
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: supposed to give you? Make something funner? He's gonna take

406
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 1: it fun He's gonna take us all out to dinner.

407
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: Like I don't do that all way to him? No,

408
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 1: I know, but yeah, but I'm thinking like, Indy, Yeah,

409
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: that's that's my birthday? Did you say that was? Okay?

410
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: We'll go out to dinner and but we won't know

411
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 1: then if if if he actually won't, if he has,

412
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,120
Speaker 1: then you'll be paying for my Saint Elmo? Well yeah,

413
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: is that is that? An Indie's the saying Elmo Steakhouse?

414
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: A right? Good? So so wait wait wait so if

415
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: he has three by then do you pay for my steak? No? No?

416
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 1: Why not? Like this can't be a one sided bet.

417
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: We'll figure it out. We'll figure it all right, all right?

418
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,919
Speaker 1: So crazy predictions for this game? Do you feel that

419
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 1: will make somewhat of a crazy play and impact this

420
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 1: game in a positive way for the Cowboys? Uh? Somebody

421
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are gonna get on the interception Ledger this week.

422
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: That's the protection for the Seahawks is too bad. Russell

423
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: Wilson's gonna get hit too many times for him to

424
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 1: play a completely clean game. I think he's thrown picks

425
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: in both of their games so far. Yeah, he threw

426
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 1: the pick that ended the Bears game, and he definitely

427
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: got picked in Denver as well. So uh yeah, the

428
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 1: Cowboys are gonna get a pick. If I had to

429
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:35,919
Speaker 1: put money on it, I would say, obviously, Jeff you

430
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: somebody step up and dethrone him. Then, I mean the

431
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: guys led the team and picks three years in a

432
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 1: four years in a row, right since fifteen? No, that's

433
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 1: only three. Sorry, I can't count um either way. I

434
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 1: would guess Jeff Heath, but maybe Bayern r Cheeto. But

435
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: somebody's somebody's getting a pick and it'll be a big play.

436
00:21:54,960 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: Can the Cowboys score more points in this game than

437
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:04,919
Speaker 1: the Seahawks or I mean again, we talked to about

438
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: this um maybe yesterday, I don't know, but that Seattle.

439
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, they've lost games, but they haven't really

440
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: had issues with scoring points. And based on the still

441
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: early but based on these two first games, I feel

442
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,479
Speaker 1: more confident with the with Seattle being able to score

443
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: than the Cowboys so far, I don't. Here's the reason why,

444
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: Because I think the Cowboys defense is better than the

445
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 1: defenses that Seattle's face so far, and so I don't.

446
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: I expect both offenses to struggle. I don't. And here's

447
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: the deal. When I say struggle, I think the Cowboys

448
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 1: offense will actually play better this week than they've played

449
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:41,919
Speaker 1: the first two weeks, because I think Zeke will be

450
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 1: better um and I think because they'll be able to

451
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: get the running game going to some degree that will

452
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: help them and help their offense throughout the game. So

453
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 1: I actually expect this to be a week where Zeke

454
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,120
Speaker 1: goes of one hundred yards. You look at his history.

455
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: First two weeks is usually when he's not that great.

456
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 1: Gets to the third week, that's usually when Zeke comes on.

457
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 1: And I expect Zeke is gonna come on this week,

458
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna have a good week. I

459
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: still don't think the Cowboys are gonna score a ton

460
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 1: of points. I don't think they're gonna get into the

461
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,679
Speaker 1: twenty seven range, but I wouldn't be surprised her up

462
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: at the twenty one range. Twenty four range maybe at

463
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,959
Speaker 1: the most, but I think that's gonna be enough if

464
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 1: you look at it, because I just think that I

465
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: think that both these defenses are gonna be pretty good.

466
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: I mean, Dave broke it down for you to defense

467
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 1: just say. Seattle's defense isn't bad. They're just not at Colt.

468
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: They're just not where we are accustomed to seeing them,

469
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: Like they don't have the talent that they once had,

470
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 1: but they still Any defense has got difference makers at

471
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: all three levels, is gonna be a good defense, and

472
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 1: they do. They have difference makers at all three levels.

473
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be tough for both teams to score.

474
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: I think I would guess it's gonna look a lot

475
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 1: like the last two games, which twenty fifteen Seattle one

476
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,479
Speaker 1: thirteen to twelve and twenty seventeen Seattle one twenty one

477
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: to twelve, and one of Seattle's touchdowns was a pick six,

478
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: so their offense wasn't on fire by any stretch. I

479
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a lot like that. Like I

480
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 1: would be shocked if the winner of this game has

481
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: twenty is about as hard at high as I'm willing

482
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: to go. But I really think the score will be

483
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 1: more like seventeen to fifty fourteen, you know, sixteen to thirteen,

484
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 1: something like that. I certainly could see that. I think

485
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: it's going to be. I just think the defenses are better.

486
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: Both the two defenses are better than the offense. Hopefully

487
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,199
Speaker 1: the Cowboys can get in the end zone because they

488
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: have not in those last two games. Yea, all field goals,

489
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 1: but that problem. But that defense, those defenses they face,

490
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: those two usual much better than the defense they're going

491
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: to face the Sunday. Absolutely, well, let's hope you're right, Derek.

492
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,959
Speaker 1: Let's take a call from Tony in Denver. All right,

493
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 1: how's it going, guys? Hey, what's up? Hey? I enjoy

494
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: the show. And as fans do, we dare start to

495
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:40,920
Speaker 1: use the term doomsday defense again. And I think we've

496
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: finished number eight and defense overall last year. And should

497
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 1: we have vander esh play more in this game against

498
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:54,159
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson then Damien Wilson, that's a that's an interesting thought.

499
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, Damian Wilson. I know you missed that tackle

500
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 1: in Carolina, but I think that game, again Eli was

501
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: maybe the best he's ever played. But um, I get

502
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 1: your point. I mean Layton vander Esch, Him and Jalen

503
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 1: Smith are your most athletic linebackers purely just from a

504
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 1: talent standpoint. Um, I guarantee you they're going to get

505
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 1: him on the field. I don't I don't know what

506
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: if you spy him. I'm curious about that. You mentioned

507
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,439
Speaker 1: Chris Rohard, like, are they gonna just blitz Russell Wilson

508
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 1: a ton knowing that if it doesn't work, they're screwed,

509
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 1: Because that sounds scary to me, whether he just beats

510
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 1: the blitz with a throw or escapes from the blitz

511
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 1: and then you got nobody to account. Well, there are

512
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: ways to to blitz in a way where you keep

513
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 1: maintaining you're the gap in your you're laying integrity, and

514
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: they're still not giving him escape routes. Right, that's the

515
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: whole point. If you can do that without giving him

516
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,199
Speaker 1: escape routes, that's what you want to do. It's risky,

517
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,360
Speaker 1: but I think there are ways to do it where

518
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,919
Speaker 1: you can you can have both. You can blitz and

519
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 1: keep him from getting outside of the pocket. To answer

520
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 1: the question more directly, I think Damien has played well

521
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: enough that I would have expect he's your starting Sam

522
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: still but I know that they want to get vander

523
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 1: Esch snaps, and I bet you he will get fifteen

524
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:11,640
Speaker 1: to twenty. It's my guess. Definitely not a bad problem

525
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: to how No, it's so it's really good. Still can't

526
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 1: believe that we're talking about this, like how do you

527
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 1: get all these linebackers onto the field? Like I remember

528
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: years where it was like, who's this guy they signed?

529
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,159
Speaker 1: Like last year I think it was, or maybe it

530
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: was twenty sixteen, like they had to move Keith Smith

531
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,400
Speaker 1: back to the linebacker because they didn't have enough. They

532
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,919
Speaker 1: were like, hey, you still remember how to do that? Right, Well,

533
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: we have nobody left, so can you get over there. Yeah,

534
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 1: So that's pretty cool that they're just absolutely stacked at linebacker,

535
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 1: right and everybody and all of them are playing well.

536
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:43,719
Speaker 1: That's the thing about it too. It's not just they

537
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:45,880
Speaker 1: got bodies, like, they got guys that are playing really

538
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,199
Speaker 1: well and you're having to really like the fact that

539
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 1: they're not having to put the first round pick on

540
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 1: the field. That's all. I mean, that's just I know,

541
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 1: such great like people. I get it, you get drafted nineteenth. Overall,

542
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 1: people want to see you play. People expect you to

543
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,199
Speaker 1: make a different But that's not the worst thing in

544
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 1: the world. No, And most times, especially at that position too,

545
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,880
Speaker 1: you know, where it takes a little more time to

546
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 1: get going and figure out the game. But most teams

547
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,439
Speaker 1: aren't patient enough for that. Most teams they get their

548
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: first round pick and they want the first round to

549
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: pick on the field well and the fact that they've

550
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: got guys who were here that are playing well enough

551
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: for them to feel like they don't have to force

552
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: him on the field. Your first under pick usually unless

553
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 1: you do something you know, bold like draft of Pat

554
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 1: Mahomes when you have Alex Smith, like, usually your first

555
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 1: round pick is at a position where you don't have

556
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: a lot of EI one. Yeah, but you know, Joe

557
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: Thomas even you know, I think people thought that was

558
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 1: a good signing in the spring, but who's even exceeded

559
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: those expectations. Jalen Smith is clearly just shooting right up

560
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,120
Speaker 1: like a rocket. I mean, yeah, but let's be real.

561
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,159
Speaker 1: That first round pick for the Cowboys last year was

562
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: an insurance pick, yes, because they didn't know if Jane

563
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 1: would be back to being himself. They didn't know what

564
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 1: was gonna happen with Sean and his injuries, and so

565
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: that was an insurance pick and it paid off on

566
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: him because now he really is insurance. I said it

567
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 1: in August when people were killing the guy for not practicing,

568
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 1: like you're gonna need him before the season's over, because

569
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,879
Speaker 1: somebody's gonna get hurt. Knock on wood, and you're gonna

570
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: need him in the coming years because Shawn Lee's thirty two,

571
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: right and has an injury history of a fifty five

572
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,120
Speaker 1: year old. Flights al really popping off. Yeah, and exactly

573
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: like going into third week cramp, it's a cramp. Layton

574
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 1: vanderessh is fine, Like he's gonna be fine. Um, I

575
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: was gonna say something, Oh, Damien Wilson, you know, Surprisingly

576
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 1: to me, I honestly did not expect him to be

577
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 1: playing as good he has been so far coming into

578
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: this year. I don't know why. It's just he's been

579
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: because he hadn't been very good his career. I don't

580
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 1: want to say his career has been disappointing, because if

581
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: you're still on the roster as a fourth round pick

582
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 1: in your contract year, you've been pretty good. But I

583
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 1: always think he gets compared to Anthony Hitchins so much

584
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: because from the same conference, same you know round, same

585
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: position obviously, and he hasn't been anywhere near as good

586
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 1: as hitch right, And yeah, no, I I going into

587
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: you know, when they drafted Vanderash and signed Thomas, I

588
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 1: was like, oh, it's not a lot. Damien Wilson makes

589
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 1: this team. So kudos to him that he's Yeah, I

590
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 1: really thought he'd be gone by now, and he's you know,

591
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 1: people dogged Kyle wilburto, but Damian Wilson is one of

592
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 1: your key special teamers too. It's a contract you're for him, yes,

593
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 1: because fifteen sixteen say yeah, yes, So this is his

594
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: opportunity to do like Hitchens and make some money. I

595
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 1: don't think he's gonna do like Hitchens, right, but what

596
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: I'm saying that that's his opportunity, right, that's his opportunity

597
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 1: for a second contract, which will be far bigger than

598
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: the one he's on right now, even if it's not huge.

599
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, let's take our final break and when we

600
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: come back, we'll give our final score for this game,

601
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: and we'll keep taking more calls. Cowboys fans know that

602
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,800

663

Speaker 1: why you're always crashing. Just get it. I'm getting those

664
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: a joke. I'm not seen that I'm gonna need that

665
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: in writing. All right, let's take a call from in

666
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: Las Vegas. Hey, everybody, Hey, you know, I guess to

667
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 1: score a lot of points, you got to take chances.

668
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 1: And I see Thako Mayfield last night, and the one

669
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: thing I like about that kid is he just lets

670
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 1: it go. He sees it and his brain tells his

671
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 1: arm and the balls out and it's moving. And I

672
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 1: don't see that with Dak. I see Dak he's like

673
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: a little gunshot. And I don't know if that's started

674
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: from Atlanta last year, but when he rose the quick slant,

675
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: that's his best throw because there's no thinking. He gets

676
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 1: it and he fires it. But anything that's down the field,

677
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: he's so afraid to make a mistake that when he

678
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,719
Speaker 1: finally decides, you see him throat in a dirty rushes it.

679
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: So my question to you guys is would you rather

680
00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: have Dak be like this, protect the ball but you're

681
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 1: one holding penalty away from maybe punting because this team

682
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 1: has a hard time overcoming first and twenty, or would

683
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: you like to see him take more chances let the

684
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: ball go. But he may throw some more interceptions, But

685
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,360
Speaker 1: you got a shot at making bigger plays. What do

686
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 1: you guys think? Let me ask you this question. I

687
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: want you to kind of walk through this yourself. What

688
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,919
Speaker 1: is what do the Cowboys do best? Run the ball,

689
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 1: run the ball? Which of those passing strategies works best?

690
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 1: If you're a good running team. Ah, that's tough because

691
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 1: if this if you're if you were going to tell

692
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 1: me that this team could methodically march down the field

693
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 1: and not get a penalty, I say, just checking it down.

694
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 1: But the problem is, I don't think the offensive line

695
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 1: is as good as it was and we've seen so far,

696
00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 1: especially in the first game. Is you get this team

697
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 1: just one holding penalty, one offside penalty and they backed

698
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: up first of fifteen, They're going to have a hard

699
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: time overcoming that. So if he I may personally, I

700
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 1: think you have to stretch the field like they did

701
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 1: against the Giant. I think he needs to take some shot.

702
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 1: I don't mind him thrown an interception once in a while.

703
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,799
Speaker 1: You know, if he's going to throw me a forty

704
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: yard pass down the middle of the field or something

705
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 1: like that, I'll take it. I took it at Romo,

706
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 1: and you know you knew Romo. How great is he

707
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 1: was throwing a ball? He was going to throw them

708
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,400
Speaker 1: in a suctions all the great quarterbacks do because they

709
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 1: take chances. I think in this league they're begging you

710
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 1: to take chances with the rules and everything, and I

711
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 1: just think you're asking the office and you're asking a

712
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 1: defense to be so precise. Just trying to work these

713
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: twelve play drives. I don't think he could win consistently.

714
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: Were you okay with the idea that? Were you okay

715
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: with this last game? From the standpoint the frequency of

716
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 1: the downfill throws? They had three that were, to my opinion,

717
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,399
Speaker 1: kind of what I call downfield throws last week. They

718
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 1: hit on one of them, So they connect on one

719
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,799
Speaker 1: on one of three, and when you're going down feel

720
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 1: like that that's probably going to be the frequency. Maybe

721
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,320
Speaker 1: a little higher percentage, but that's probably gonna be the

722
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 1: frequency with which you catch those. Were you okay with

723
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 1: that frequency of doing it three, three or four times

724
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 1: a game? Yes? I think you got to back them off.

725
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 1: You know, there's there's no mystery. Every defense is saying,

726
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,359
Speaker 1: we got to stop Zeke I mean the safety Land

727
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: of College came right out and said it's there's no mystery,

728
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 1: and that back them off. And I think in the

729
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 1: long run, you may not hit it. We didn't hit

730
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 1: it like you said, we hit one. But if they

731
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 1: back up a few steps, maybe that opens up a

732
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 1: little more room to zeke. You know. I just think

733
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: in this league, if you're gonna think and dunk, I

734
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 1: don't think it can work. Okay, I said, it's just

735
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: too much, too much overcoming, there's a penalty. I appreciate

736
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 1: the call, and I actually I think kind of in

737
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: listening to him talk about that and talk through it,

738
00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: I think the answer is really in what he was saying,

739
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: which is as you got to do a little bit

740
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,720
Speaker 1: of both. You're not gonna go out and bombs away

741
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:05,760
Speaker 1: every play. You get three or four of those a game,

742
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 1: and then the rest of the game you run the ball,

743
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 1: drop it off down low. I mean, there's there are

744
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: different ways you want to attack a defense, and just

745
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:15,399
Speaker 1: going deep the whole game isn't the right answer because

746
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,320
Speaker 1: you're not gonna get enough percentage. You will be punting

747
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: a lot, right because that's only a fifty fifty prospect

748
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: in most instances, right, So you really want to have

749
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: a balance of it. And I think, honestly, three or

750
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: four times a game, to me, it's plenty to go

751
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: downfield it especially if you connect on one of them

752
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,400
Speaker 1: and it's a touchdown. That's going to force a defense

753
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 1: to really think twice about whether they're willing to give

754
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 1: that one play out of out of the three, and

755
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 1: that may keep them back a little bit or at

756
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 1: least make them hesitate a little bit on a run

757
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,240
Speaker 1: and give Zeke a little bit more of a headstart

758
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 1: before he gets to that second level. Yeah, I think

759
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm officially ready to say, like we make too much

760
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 1: of a deal out of the down field passing. And

761
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 1: when I said, I mean like thirty fourty yards down field,

762
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 1: like you're gonna take a few of those a game.

763
00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:00,040
Speaker 1: Maybe like Ben Roethlisberger hits them with more frequency and

764
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people, but like he's going to the

765
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame and he's got a receivers probably the

766
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 1: Hall to back a defense off when you have a

767
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,479
Speaker 1: run game like this, I really think it's as easy

768
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: as like consistently hitting receivers for first downs like eight, ten, twelve,

769
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,759
Speaker 1: fifteen yards down field, like I you know, I'm not.

770
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,760
Speaker 1: I don't have issue with the call because I honestly

771
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 1: think Rob made a few really good points. But we

772
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: did see this work in twenty sixteen, like it worked

773
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: really well, like they put those drives together, and he's

774
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,839
Speaker 1: absolutely right. The offensive line was better, the running game

775
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 1: was better, Dak was better to this point, and I

776
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 1: think the Cowboys are in the process of trying to

777
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 1: figure out how they get back to that. I don't

778
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 1: know if they can do it with this personnel. I

779
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 1: don't know if the receivers are good enough to scare anybody.

780
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if Dak can make those plays. I

781
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 1: don't know if the offensive line without Frederick and from

782
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 1: what we've seen from them so far, can get to

783
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 1: that level. But that's what they're going to try to

784
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 1: do because that's the way they've built this team, And honestly,

785
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: with the way this team is built right now, I

786
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,920
Speaker 1: would rather just not turn the ball over and it

787
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 1: probably won't be exciting, sorry about it, but that is

788
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: the way they've built this team. You've got a good

789
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 1: enough defense that it can keep you in and maybe

790
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: even win some games if your quarterback doesn't turn the

791
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 1: ball over. That's a pretty good formula for success. It

792
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: won't be sexy. I'm sorry, but that's probably the best

793
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 1: strategy for this team to win games. I'll take a

794
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: game like last week for the rest of the season

795
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 1: every single week if they're winning. Honestly, yea, And the

796
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: last week wasn't a beautiful thing to watch. They had

797
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 1: a couple of moments that were really beautiful to watch,

798
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 1: but by and large, that was one of those games

799
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,439
Speaker 1: and it was kind of ugly and kind of like

800
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 1: you felt like they were I mean, you knew they

801
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: were winning, but you felt like it was kind of tenuous,

802
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 1: and you really didn't know whether they were gonna be

803
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 1: able to maintain it, especially once you got into the

804
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: second and third quarter and then an offense really wasn't

805
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,919
Speaker 1: scoring at that point. But the fact of the matter

806
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 1: is the way they played that game. They came out aggressive,

807
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 1: they got to lead, the defense held, and then they

808
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 1: got to the fourth quarter and they said, let's put

809
00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 1: this game away, and they put the game away. If

810
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 1: you had that formula every week and you have the

811
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 1: personnel to do it, that's a winning formula. We're seeing

812
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 1: that formula go to the Super Bowl. If that's a

813
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:09,399
Speaker 1: winning formula, and if you're a college football fan Alabama,

814
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: I mean exactly, It's hard to play that way in

815
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,840
Speaker 1: the NFL because Alabama has such a ridiculous talent advantage.

816
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: But that's the formula and it can work. Yep, It's

817
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,360
Speaker 1: gonna be tough because but it can work. And like

818
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 1: I said, that's that's the way this team is built

819
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 1: right now and when you will run it. The good

820
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: thing about that is there will only be one formula

821
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: in my opinion, that would that would harm you if

822
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,880
Speaker 1: you're doing that, and you do if you do that well,

823
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:37,280
Speaker 1: and that is the super quarterback. If you're playing Aaron Rodgers,

824
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 1: if you're playing Drew Brees, if you're playing Tom Brady.

825
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: But they're only a handful of those, right those are

826
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,080
Speaker 1: gonna be the only teams that are really gonna if

827
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: you can do that well, if you can play really

828
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: really great defense, you can run the ball really well

829
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: and you don't turn over the ball, only those great

830
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 1: quarterbacks will really have a great shot at beating you.

831
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 1: And I'll take my chances with that. That's a pretty

832
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 1: good that's a pretty good setup to say, Hey, if

833
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:00,959
Speaker 1: that's the only people I can beat us. If those

834
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: four or five can beat us and everybody else, we

835
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,839
Speaker 1: fact we can beat That's what's a that's what're taking.

836
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:07,759
Speaker 1: That's a shot we're taking, no doubt about it. And

837
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 1: I really don't know how long it would take for

838
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 1: Dad to get to that level as far as being

839
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 1: able to make those long distance throws, especially giving the

840
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: amount of opportunities that he gets in the game. I mean,

841
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 1: you can't really see great progress when you don't get

842
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 1: many chances. But didn't need progress from what he did.

843
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 1: I think what he did last week was no, it

844
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: is fine, It is fine, and moving it slowly like that,

845
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 1: as long as you get it moving and get to

846
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 1: the no. I'm saying what he did last week as

847
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: far as the deep now, yes, it was fine because

848
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,240
Speaker 1: one of me connected four touchdown. The other two didn't connect,

849
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:43,719
Speaker 1: and that's going to be the percentage you do when

850
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 1: you're going that far downfield. But the thing is, Okay,

851
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,839
Speaker 1: he's not consistent enough. And like you said, okay, yes,

852
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,879
Speaker 1: that's fine when you're making those few ones here and there.

853
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I think it can affect

854
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: his confidence and start giving him that more of that

855
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: hesitation that we've been seeing of like thinking, Okay, should

856
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 1: I make this this throw or not. I think it

857
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 1: affects him in his confidence and the way and how

858
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,879
Speaker 1: quickly he executes. I don't know. I think quarterbacks know that.

859
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: They call it a fifty fifty ball for a reason.

860
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 1: I think quarterbacks, no, you're not going to connect that

861
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,440
Speaker 1: a lot, Like that's not if that's your bread and butter,

862
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,399
Speaker 1: unless you're the Greatest Show on Turf where they were

863
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 1: doing that every week multiple times in the game. Then

864
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 1: that's just not the way the offense runs, I mean,

865
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,919
Speaker 1: and that certainly is not the way the offense runs here.

866
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 1: That's not what they're even asking him to do. So

867
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: I don't know that affects his confidence as much as

868
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 1: it is just we're gonna take a shot here, and

869
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 1: there is still value in the shot, Like even if

870
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: you don't connect, the fact that you got somebody down

871
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 1: feel and the fact that Dak threw the ball forces

872
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 1: a defense to think they're gonna hesitate for justice. Staff second,

873
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: thinking are they going deep here. We gotta make sure

874
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:53,800
Speaker 1: we'recovering that. We gotta make sure we got people in position.

875
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 1: So that's all you have to worry about it, and

876
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 1: for me, that's that's the value of it. I don't

877
00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 1: think that everything else is working. That's those the defense

878
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 1: is working. As long as able to run the ball

879
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: and as long as you turn it over. I think

880
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:06,359
Speaker 1: those are the three critical factors. And if you can

881
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 1: do those things, I think the deep ball becomes just

882
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,360
Speaker 1: kind of that added thing just to force them to

883
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:14,319
Speaker 1: respect it. You know, I absolutely agree. Just when those

884
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,439
Speaker 1: other elements are working, then you got a great game going.

885
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,880
Speaker 1: But if one of those goes down, then everything else

886
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 1: goes down. And we've seen that happen multiple times. So

887
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think Dad can be fine, but

888
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see how it's just a we'll see.

889
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,920
Speaker 1: He's yeah, absolutely, we haven't. I mean, I can't sit

890
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 1: here and tell you that Dak is going to develop

891
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 1: into an all pro quarterback. But this is this is

892
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:42,600
Speaker 1: the way this team is going to have to win

893
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:46,840
Speaker 1: right now, and that's that's what's important today on Friday,

894
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: and not mess those Rico passes in the end zone

895
00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 1: he's getting down. We're picking this game or what are

896
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,400
Speaker 1: we okay, final score for this game? Who wins? And

897
00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: what is the final score? All right, Um we go first, Yeah,

898
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,319
Speaker 1: all right. I think Cowboys win. I think they win

899
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:08,399
Speaker 1: twenty to sixteen in a close one. In another game,

900
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,440
Speaker 1: it's just like the Giants game. That's I think that's

901
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:11,920
Speaker 1: what we're gonna have to get used to seeing. I

902
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 1: do think they put up a couple more points, and

903
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: I think the offense looks a little more efficient throughout

904
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:17,480
Speaker 1: the game, because I think the running game is going

905
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,719
Speaker 1: to be much better this week than it has been

906
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,840
Speaker 1: the first two weeks, so it'll look a little better,

907
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:24,960
Speaker 1: but the result will still be pretty much the same.

908
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:26,880
Speaker 1: It's gonna be right there around twenty points. In my opinion,

909
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,359
Speaker 1: Cowboys will win. I said before a week one that

910
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:32,400
Speaker 1: I was going to choose to believe a lot of

911
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,200
Speaker 1: things about this team. The defense has it looks good.

912
00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: The offense not so much. Not enough time has passed

913
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,760
Speaker 1: from week one. There's not a large enough sample size

914
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,359
Speaker 1: of success for me to have a ton of faith

915
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,879
Speaker 1: in this offense. Seattle's offense has problems of their own.

916
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:51,359
Speaker 1: At the end of the day, they have an all

917
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: Pro quarterback. It hasn't been pretty for him, but he's

918
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,120
Speaker 1: still there. A lot of those guys are gone, but

919
00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: this is still a franchise with a great home field

920
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: advantage that knows how to win games and is used

921
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 1: to winning games. There's a lot of pride up there. Um.

922
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna be pretty at all for anybody, really,

923
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,280
Speaker 1: but I just think an Owen two Seattle team finds

924
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 1: a way to keep it season alive. I'm thinking, like,

925
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 1: I thought that was a must win when you were

926
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,799
Speaker 1: onto one to get it wasn't. It was a must

927
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 1: win for Dallas, and this is a must win for

928
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: Seattle and three and oh and two? Right, but oh,

929
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: I meant not that are we doing this right now?

930
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm just getting clarity. I'm just getting clarity. They like

931
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 1: they needed to win that game and they didn't, But

932
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 1: now it's must If it's only twenty twenty percent of

933
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 1: teams making it Owen two, it's even fewer at three

934
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: out about it. Um, I think Seattle wins fourteen to thirteen,

935
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:49,240
Speaker 1: fourteen thirteen. All right, an game. It won't be fun.

936
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 1: It will not be fun, but it'll be defensive, be

937
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 1: a fun trip home, it'll be. It'll be. Yeah, it's

938
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: gonna be it's gonna be a slugfest. I think it'll

939
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:00,839
Speaker 1: it'll find a way to be entertaining. But I think

940
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 1: Seattle gets it done. All right, Um, I will I'm

941
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:09,160
Speaker 1: gonna pick Seattle as well. I will say under twenty

942
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 1: that's the final score. I don't know what it would be,

943
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:13,439
Speaker 1: but I would just say it's gonna be a one

944
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:17,399
Speaker 1: point difference for this game. So wa difference? Yeah, one

945
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 1: point doesn't matter, doesn't Now it's gonna be thirty eight

946
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 1: thirty five. That would be fun. Yeah, for real, Dax

947
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:29,359
Speaker 1: is gonna be splinging it around. Hey, I don't mind

948
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 1: that I bring it. Bring I'd be happy to eat

949
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 1: some crow. That's what I want to do, all right.

950
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,640
