All right, Well, before we get into the 12 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: Texans um offense, I wanted to hit over a few 13 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: points in regards to the white receiver position, starting off 14 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: with Terrence William who wasn't at practice on Friday, was 15 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 1: inactive during the game, and then today it wasn't an 16 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: ad practice again. So I want to know the mystery 17 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 1: behind this whole deal and what is really going on here. 18 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: Any answers to this or any any how do you 19 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: call those like super supposition no SUSI speculations. Yeah, there 20 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: we go, whole I wish I could help you, Amber 21 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: I've been trying to get to the bottom of it, 22 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 1: and what I've been hearing back is I wish I 23 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: could help you, like you've been hearing that back from 24 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: people you've been talking to. Yes, yeah, it's scene. I 25 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: don't know, and I think we've kind of had an 26 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: idea that something weird was going on ever since Bryce 27 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: Butler joined the team basically, which was what after week 28 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: two or three, regardless he's been. Yeah, he's been. He's 29 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: been here for two games. We've known for a couple 30 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: of weeks that something's up with Terrence. He didn't practice Friday, 31 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: he wasn't at the game Sunday. He's dealing with some 32 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: off field issues. We asked Jason Garrett before practice today 33 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: at his press conference if he's going to practice, and 34 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: he said, we'll see. Which somebody made the astute observation, 35 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: like practices in fifteen minutes. What do you mean you 36 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 1: don't know? It's weird. Cole Beasley mentioned, maybe you know 37 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: he's got something going on with his foot. He had 38 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: his foot surgically repaired during the offseason after he broke it, 39 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 1: so maybe there's an injury component. There's been reports about 40 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,639 Speaker 1: a possible suspension. I haven't the slightest idea. All I 41 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: know is that he's not practicing and he has not 42 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: had much of an impact at all on this team 43 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen. And that's the key is he really 44 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: hasn't had much of an impact. So it doesn't help 45 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: hurt you one way or the other. It's more just 46 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,519 Speaker 1: a you want to kind of know what's going on 47 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: because obviously you've got to figure out what's going to 48 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: happen with David Irving and if he is going to 49 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: be a guy that could be a potential possible cut 50 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: to get make room for Irving. You kind of want 51 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: to know that, right just as you know, as curious 52 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: people that follows a team want to know. But right 53 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: now out there doesn't seem like they're very there's very 54 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: much in the way of facts that are coming out. 55 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 1: So it's a it's such a curious phenomenon with this team. 56 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: And I chalk it up to how popular it is. 57 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the most popular football team in 58 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: the world, draws a lot of scrutiny, gets a lot 59 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: of coverage, like stuff like it's never as simple as 60 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: it's supposed to be with the Cowboys, like any other team, 61 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 1: it would just kind of be, it would be under wraps, 62 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: and then one day they'd be like he's suspended or 63 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: he's going to i R and that's they're like, okay, cool, 64 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: but he's back. Nobody cares. But here like there, you know, 65 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: there's reports, there are leaks, there, speculate and all of 66 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: a sudden, you know, it reminds me of when Dez 67 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: skipped as MRI I a couple of years ago, Like 68 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: it's just like, why, why can't the most mundane of 69 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: activities ever just be as straightforward as they're supposed to be, 70 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: Like teams, teams make roster moves all the time, and 71 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: it's just never seems like it's that easy here. Yeah, okay, 72 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: And another wide receiver who we know um has some 73 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: fun tweeting about the days. That's Bryant, and we know 74 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: he's been getting ready into football shape, or at least 75 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: based on all his pictures and videos of him working 76 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: out and doing all that football stuff. Someone tweeted at 77 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: him asking him who you signing with, and he responded back, 78 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: I'd rather it be the Dallas Cowboys. If not, I'll 79 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 1: be ready to play somewhere else now to me, That 80 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: was a surprising response because based on how things kind 81 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: of went down, I wouldn't expect that kind of response. 82 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: But hey, if he wants to be here, cool Now 83 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: is this a real scenario? Do you actually see this happening. 84 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: We've talked about maybe Dak having the need of having 85 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: some kind of wide receiver that has the experience and 86 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: being able to help him on the field aside from 87 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elia, Do you guys really see this happening later 88 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: on in the season or at some Honestly, this reminds 89 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 1: me of when I was a single man and you 90 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: date somebody and then you break up with him, and 91 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: then it's like six months later you run into him 92 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: and you kind of like, man, I kind of missed them, 93 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: but you don't think about all the things that were 94 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: the problems as to why you broke up with them 95 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: in the first place. I hope the Cowboys don't get 96 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: in that situation. And the reason why I say that 97 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: is because last year, let's be honest, wasn't Dez. Wasn't 98 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: doing Dez things. Last year for the most part, he 99 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: was not the player, and there can be a lot 100 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: of reasons for that, and I think it's people have 101 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: a valid point when they say maybe it was the 102 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: quarterback not being able to utilize him the right way. 103 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: Maybe that's true, Maybe that's very valid, right, but guess what, 104 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: that quarterback is still here and as of right now, 105 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: that quarterback isn't going anywhere. So if we saw that 106 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: last year, I don't think anyone should be under some 107 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: sort of illusion that bringing him back somehow it's gonna 108 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: be different, because I don't think it necessarily will be. 109 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys have a path they want to 110 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: go down. Go down that path for right or wrong, 111 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: whether it works or doesn't work. You selected a path, 112 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: go with it. I don't think they go back and 113 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: revise that at this point, in my opinion, I thought 114 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: Nick had the line of the day. Yesterday we were 115 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: talking about this, which people that listen to the show 116 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: don't know William, But William works on the back end 117 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: with us. You know, he did a post slave our stories. 118 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: There's a lot of web stuff, crucial piece of what 119 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: we do behind the scenes. But uh Rob was like, well, yeah, 120 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: Dez said if he could sign anywhere, he wants to 121 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: play for the Cowboys, and Nick goes, so does William. 122 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: So what like of course, Das wants to play for 123 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Dez always wanted to play for the Cowboys. 124 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: William William was like, just give me one rep. Rep 125 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: this whole thing. It was never about what Dez wanted 126 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: to do. It was about what the Cowboys wanted. And 127 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: I get it. I'm hey, I love Dez Bryant. Part 128 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 1: of me probably would be excited to see him resigned, 129 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: just for the spectacle of it all. But numbers, yeah, no, exactly. 130 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: I mean, the story would get the story would get clicks, 131 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: there's no doubt about that, but some extra attention. I 132 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: love that point. I mean here, I mean at this 133 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: point in the season. Last year, Dez had two hundred 134 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: and twelve receiving yards. That's about fifty three a game. 135 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: He did that on sixteen catches, which is for a game. 136 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: More importantly than that forty targets, So he's catching less 137 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: than half of his of his targets for fifty three 138 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: yards a game. He did have two touchdowns, but remember 139 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: those numbers are super inflated because Dak was just chucking 140 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: him the ball. He threw him the ball sixteen times 141 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: in a thirty point loss in Denver. I don't know, 142 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: there's so many ways you can go with this, Like 143 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: you can argue whether they should have cut him, you 144 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: can argue whether this is the right path to be 145 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: on the point is that they're on this path already. 146 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: I legitimately, I don't I would even be willing to 147 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: concede that maybe it wasn't the best idea to cut 148 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: him in the first place. But I really, I genuinely 149 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: believe this team wouldn't be any better with Dez Bryan 150 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: on it right now based on what we saw last year. Um, 151 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: and the numbers don't bear out that it would be 152 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: this amazing idea to bring him back. But he claims 153 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: to being super Scian mode. What else would would you 154 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: say to somebody? Is the all the Goku post? I 155 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: just think in no offense to how we started the show, 156 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: But I just think those are two irrelevant topics because 157 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: none of them matters. Like Terrence Williams like, he's not contributing, 158 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: so it doesn't really matter. Yeah, it's interesting, of what's 159 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: the deal? Is he gonna go? I r is he 160 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: gonna go cut? But I don't think he's mean. I 161 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,599 Speaker 1: think he's caught his last pass with the Cowboys and 162 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: I think that's wow, That's that's a big statement, though, Nick, 163 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: I mean, do you really think I don't know? I mean, honestly, 164 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: if this is a situation he hasn't, then that's six 165 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: more yards. I mean, but no, it isn't. I mean 166 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: I don't maybe. I mean, that's that's a pretty big statement. 167 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: I'm a little more with you on that one for sure. 168 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: About with any team. I mean, don't you think that 169 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: Dez just doesn't want to play football and all? This 170 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 1: is just kind of smoking me. I don't believe that. 171 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: I think Dez wants to play under death circumstances. And 172 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: what I mean by that is, I think Dez wants 173 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: to play at the right place for the right amount 174 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: of money is and the right play because he's had opportunities. 175 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: Baltimore was offered him a deal, right, he wants to 176 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: play football. I think if the Giants would offer him 177 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: in that same deal, he would have done it in 178 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: a minute. He made it clear which teams he wanted 179 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: to go to. You know, if it's one of those things, 180 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: I think he's in Ronda Rousey. They were the biggest, 181 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: the baddest until they got punched in the mouth and 182 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: then they're like, it's different. It's a totally different thing 183 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: now after that. And the thing is, Dez did things 184 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: des way, I go, I jump over people, I make 185 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 1: these plays, get off me whatever. But when you're not 186 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 1: that guy anymore and you're getting called out by the 187 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: cornerback from the Panthers, who's now with the Josh Norman, 188 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,199 Speaker 1: you're getting called out by other people like this guy's 189 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 1: not very good, don't it's kind of embarrassing to go 190 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: out and play that. You can't do all this X 191 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: stuff like that when you do it once a year. 192 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: But I don't see Dez as that kind of timid player. 193 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: Timid persons to me, that's that's the kind of person 194 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 1: that's that's kind of timid. So they will back away 195 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: from a challenge. I don't see does is the one 196 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: that will back away from a challenge. He does is 197 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 1: one that will attack it. Whether it's whether he will 198 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: still point to the things that said that says he's 199 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: successful even though he really isn't. Because you asked him 200 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 1: about last year, he probably wouldn't tell you that he 201 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,599 Speaker 1: didn't have a great year, right, But the fact of 202 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: the matter is I don't think he I don't think 203 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: he's a kind of personality that would back away from 204 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: that challenge just because other people saying he wasn't great. Aw, 205 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: he's just not signed with anyone. Yeah, and I'm sure 206 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: there's been opportunities. I just don't know what it is, man, 207 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 1: what's the reason? I just I think deep down he 208 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: doesn't really want to play. Well the well I don't. 209 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: I hope you're wrong, because the football fan in me 210 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: wants to see him play. Yeah. I would be so 211 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: excited if he signed with the Patriots or the Saints 212 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: or really the Browns, anybody where he could be a 213 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: future nurs I think if he went to the Packers, 214 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: I think he would have a really I think that's 215 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: the one place in the league where he could actually 216 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: go in and have an impact immediately. Regardless it hasn't happened. 217 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: You have to ask yourself why it hasn't happened when 218 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 1: partially maybe he wants to play under his circumstances, maybe 219 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: there's not that many teams who think he can help them. 220 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 1: I don't know. The other point I want to make 221 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: is that what's different from April to now, like what 222 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: changed here in Dallas, So you could well the offense 223 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: looks like crap. The wide receivers aren't any good. Like 224 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: the Cowboys knew exactly what they were signing up for 225 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,599 Speaker 1: when they did this, Like I can go pull you 226 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: the sound clips from May when they were like, it's 227 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: gonna be on Zeke to play well until these receivers 228 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: find their footings, Like we know we're facing stack boxes. 229 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: We know these guys, you know they gotta We're gonna 230 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 1: have to have a wide receiver step up. Like it's 231 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: not like they were expecting these guys to be magical 232 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: Pro bowlers from the word go. And all of the 233 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,719 Speaker 1: people who signed off on cutting him are still here. 234 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: And all of the players who supposedly were okay with 235 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: it are still here too, except for Jason Witten, well 236 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,680 Speaker 1: a couple of I mean that Travis Frederick is still 237 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: in the building, Shaan Lee is still in the building, 238 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,319 Speaker 1: Snake lead, whatever, hurt, whatever you want to call on. 239 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: I mean, they're here, they still play for the team. 240 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: I just I don't think anything's different from the day 241 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: that they just made the decision. Yeah, so well, credit 242 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: to him to keeping it live and keeping it's always 243 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: fun the expeculations going in. But it was interesting. Even 244 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: last week he was tweeting some stuff about battling was 245 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: a depression or anxiety, anxiety, anxiety, and it's just like 246 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 1: there was a I don't know, there's just a lot 247 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: of it was I don't remember the exact quote, but 248 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: he was just talking about going through a period of 249 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: anxiety where he's experienced a lot of anxiety and that 250 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 1: kind of stuff, and I don't know, it just I 251 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of retrospect there's a lot of retrospectiveness, 252 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: if that's a word coming from death right now, Like, 253 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: I think he's probably coming to terms with the idea 254 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 1: that maybe he's not as valued around the league as 255 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,719 Speaker 1: he thought he was. Like people aren't. People aren't just 256 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,719 Speaker 1: saying we will give you what you want, We just 257 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: want you on our team. And so I think that's 258 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: there's probably some of that that happens with every professional 259 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: athlete that has always been the top when he gets 260 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: to the point where he realizes everybody doesn't see him 261 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: as the top, right So I don't know, I wonder 262 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: if some of that's happened. And that's my point. I mean, 263 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: it's easier to just not play and not be exposed 264 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: because of what the character that he's kind of created, 265 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 1: and it's it's tough to go back on that and 266 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: just be this guy that's kind of hanging on. And 267 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: I think that's what Jason Witten did not ever want 268 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: to do, is to play like that when you're in 269 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 1: a liability And it was getting kind of close, and 270 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 1: I mean, he still made the Pro Bowls last year, 271 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: but it was getting kind of close. He was getting 272 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 1: penalties a lot, off sides, whatever, and I think he 273 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: was like, this is better to go do this. And 274 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: that's just in the thing about it. As former players, 275 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: they they may may or not missed the game, but 276 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: most of them missed the spotlight. And that's the thing 277 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: Dez is gonna continue to be. You saw you said, 278 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: did you see on social media? Was at the other 279 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: night when whenever the Drake Drake concert was happening, or 280 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: a bunch of fans there and they were all throwing 281 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: up the ax for days, and you know, you could 282 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: see in his face that there was just that moment 283 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 1: of and it's cool, I kind of missed this, you know, 284 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: and you throughout the yeah, no doubt, but I'm just saying, 285 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: like that's the part that gets to what you're saying 286 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: is missing, that that adulation that you get, that feedback 287 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: you get from fans of you're the man. You know 288 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: that that could be hard. I would assume you know. 289 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: I'll bet you might paycheck that neither Terrence Williams nor 290 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: Dez Bryant registers a catch for the Cowboys on Sunday night, 291 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: this coming Sunday.

While a 335 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: player can look good on paper, it's when he's out 336 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: on the field that you really find out what he's 337 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: made of. That's why the Cowboys rely on more than 338 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 1: staffs and scouting reports when building their team. When picking 339 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: a tractor, it's why you should rely on more than 340 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: specs and features as well. You got to take it 341 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: out and put it to the test the Cowboys did 342 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: when they named John Deer their official tractor. To experience 343 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: one for yourself, visit your local Texas John Deer dealer 344 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 1: or go to my John Deer Dealer dot com slash football. 345 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 1: Back to the break all right, we are back on 346 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: the break. Second segment of the show. Does someone have 347 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: something to talk about, an ad or something underwear? Jack Black? 348 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: Second break, we've been doining the two Okay, then forget that. 349 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: Let's go into the Texans offense. And I wanted to 350 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: break it into two parts. First of all, let's start 351 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: off with the quarterback and their O line. Let's start 352 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: off with their quarterback. Indeed, Amber because DeShawn Deshaun Watson 353 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: is a fun player. Um, I don't know where do 354 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: I want to start with this? Honestly, you know, I 355 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 1: mean we all watched the Chiefs um Broncos game on 356 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: Monday night, getting a lot of the same stuff in 357 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. Honestly, I mean, I know. Pat Mahomes is 358 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: like off to this insane start. The Texans are one 359 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: in three. It feels weird to compare him, but you're talking. 360 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: They were drafted on one spot away from each other, 361 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 1: big live arm guy with mobility, and they've tailored their 362 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 1: offense to suit him. Um, this looks like a college offense. 363 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 1: Like it looks I wrote, it looks very chief. See 364 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 1: this is Chief See yeah, it's this is an offense 365 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: full of motion. There's a wide receiver moving through the 366 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: backfield before every single snap. I mean, Watson's in the 367 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 1: shotgun way more often than he's under center. Uh. There's 368 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 1: a read option element to damn near everything he does. 369 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: Like it. It is a common sight to see, like 370 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: you know, a wide receiver move across the formation, takes 371 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: the snap, does the read with the running back and 372 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 1: the wide receiver too. Just again, God, I wish the 373 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: Cowboys would do this type of stuff more often because 374 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: you can see it. The defense has to read and 375 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: react just that little bit before they know where the 376 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: ball is going. I love your hand signals. Yeah, your 377 00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: foot came up, pick your foot up. Thanks. I appreciate that, 378 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: the signal that you're ready for the ball. Right. No, 379 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: I mean DeShawn Watson is, he's he's crazy. I mean 380 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: he's he's mobile, He's mobile mobile, He's got a really 381 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: strong arm. Uh, he is. He is a threat to 382 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: run and throw even more than Dak And to be 383 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: bluntly honest, I think the Texans know how to use 384 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 1: his skill set a little bit better than the Cowboys do. Um. 385 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 1: He has run the ball twenty four times this season 386 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: for an average of six point seven yards per carry. 387 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: He's also been sacked seventeen times. But he said today himself, Yes, 388 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: their offensive line is bad. Since you asked about that, 389 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,719 Speaker 1: it's it's real bad. Um. They don't have a left tackle. Basically, 390 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: they're trying to find an answer between Julian Davenport and 391 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 1: Martinez Rankin uh Nick Martin Zach's little brother is good 392 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: at center. But like, this is not an offensive line 393 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,360 Speaker 1: worth getting excited about, which they're only averaging three point 394 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 1: nine yards per carry when their running backs take the 395 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: ball like it's it's not a strength of their game. 396 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: But watts and can make up for that. Like I said, 397 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: he's six point seven yards per carry. He's also got 398 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: the mobility to get away from it, he said himself today. 399 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: He runs himself into sacks a lot of times too. 400 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 1: I think I watched the Colts game yesterday, and I 401 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: think he was sacked seven times. Four of those he 402 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 1: was running forward looking for empty space in the defense 403 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: and was tripped up right at the line of scrimmage. 404 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: So four sacks that could have been four gains of 405 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 1: five to ten yards if you don't tackle well. So 406 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: that's the big thing for him, obviously, containing but he's 407 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: got he's got great arm. Strength. It might not. I 408 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,239 Speaker 1: don't know if anybody's got as good of an arm 409 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: as Mahomes right now, but he's got a cannon, and 410 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: he's got DeAndre Hopkins, who's certainly on the shortlist of 411 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: best receiver in the league. And then Will Fuller, who's 412 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,880 Speaker 1: a speed demon like. He's got two very scary options 413 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: on the outside who can do that type of stuff. 414 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: And then real quick what I just mentioned with all 415 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: the motion, they got a kid named Kiki Kuti. Shout 416 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: out out Texas Tech for anybody listening, because he's only 417 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 1: played in one game, but he looked scary when he 418 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: did it against Indianapolis this past weekend. He was targeted 419 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: fifteen times, got eleven touches for one hundred yards average 420 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: ten yards per touch, and he was He's what I 421 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 1: want Tavon Austin to be like. Before every single snap, 422 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,479 Speaker 1: he's motioning, he's coming off the line. Sometimes they throw 423 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: him a pop pass, sometimes it's a reverse. Sometimes he 424 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: doesn't do anything. He's just a decoy, but he is 425 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: a factor in every single thing they do. They got 426 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: him the ball eleven times and only once was it 427 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: more than ten yards down the field. Why can't the 428 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys do that. But he was averaging ten yards to 429 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: play to touch and he touched it within three yards 430 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: of the line of scrimmage every single time. Wow, And 431 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: I mean he's dangerous. He's a fourth round pick. He 432 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 1: was a great player at Texas Tech. He's the guy 433 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: I'm watching Watson obviously, but that guy, they're gonna get 434 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: him the ball. So why do they suck? I don't know. 435 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,919 Speaker 1: And to be fair, sorry, no, you see right here? 436 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 1: Why are they not winning? Yeah? I mean you know, 437 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 1: obviously y'all don't get to see our office, But I 438 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: sit eight feet away from Brian. I try to do 439 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 1: my own tape study. I don't just want to copy 440 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: off of him. But he watches the tape for three 441 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: days and like four times this week. I've just like 442 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: looked over at Brian been like, why do these guys suck? 443 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: Like none of it doesn't make sense. Why they're not good. 444 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: I haven't gotten to their defense yet. I know there. 445 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: Maybe that's the defenses struggled. I mean, they gave up 446 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: thirty four, but they got a ton of players over 447 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 1: there the front. I haven't gotten there. But this is 448 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 1: the fifth best offense in football. Four hundred and fourteen 449 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: yards per game. Uh yeah, and they're actually better. I 450 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: would have thought they would be better running. Oh I know, 451 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. They are better running. They run for one 452 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: twenty three, they pass for two ninety one, and a 453 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: lot of that comes on broken stuff because like I mean, 454 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: the playbreaks down, Watson gets out of it. And they 455 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: do a lot of design stuff too, same bootlegs. Honestly, 456 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: it looks a lot like what Dack does, just better 457 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: and what the DAK did in year one. But like, 458 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 1: is they not doing a lot of that now? I know? 459 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: But they don't have a Zeke Lamar Miller. Lamar Miller, 460 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: I remember not to like I'm not trying to pat 461 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: myself on the back, but I know a lot of 462 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: people wanted to sign him in free agency after DeMarcus Lawrence, 463 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: I mean DeMarco Murray left, which I know they don't 464 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: have the line the Cowboys do. But like he's yeah, 465 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: like the Texans running backs are like a waste of time. 466 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: Like Blue, he's fine for what he does and he's 467 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: all right, I'm a boy Blue. I'm not talking about him. 468 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 1: I'm proud of Alt for Blue because he came out 469 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 1: of Lsu like he barely got drafted. He's like that 470 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: and just holding on. He's just still in the league. 471 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: He's he's not he's a third down back. He's not 472 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:48,120 Speaker 1: anybody that should scare you. Um, But yeah, they can't. 473 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 1: They don't run the ball well, like when they want 474 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: to run, they don't run well. But Watson scrambling and 475 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: designed runs and they're not afraid to do it. He's like, 476 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: he's carried the ball seven more times than Daku, and 477 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: I think he's got a one hundred and six team 478 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: rushing yards on the season, and a lot of that 479 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: is designed stuff. Like I said about the Chiefs, like 480 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 1: you'll see receiver motion down. They did this cool thing 481 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: where Kut he comes out of the slot, comes into 482 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 1: the backfield, motions back out, and then Watson runs a bootleg, 483 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: but it's really an option where he pitches it out 484 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: to Kuti, like they're trying. He's a spread quarterback in 485 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: college and they're trying to incorporate that into their offense 486 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:25,360 Speaker 1: instead of hammering a square peg into a round hole. 487 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: So you look at these and it sounds like from 488 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: what you're saying, the best of what they do is 489 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: their wide receivers and their quarterback. If that's the case, 490 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: how do you think these cornerbacks on the Cowboys. Wait 491 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: before we get into that, Okay, yeah, running the show 492 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: today there absolutely Okay, that's gonna be the second part 493 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: of it. I wanted. I know, yesterday's you guys talked 494 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: about the Cowboys defensive line. You talked about the possibility 495 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: of David Irving coming back the Millie Collins injury. So, 496 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: given all of what is going on on the Cowboys defense, 497 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 1: if line, how does this line matchup against a team 498 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: like the Texans we've heard so far, I think it 499 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: matches up very well, and even better if David Irving 500 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: can get fifteen or sixteen snaps in this game, because 501 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: the line's not good, you can pressure Watson and get 502 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: to him. The thing for me, they better tackle well 503 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: because if he gets out of it, then like he's 504 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: gonna off, Yeah, he's gonna pick up yards. Which but 505 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: I mean, this is you know, much like when we 506 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: talked about that in Seattle, they got two sacks. They 507 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: weren't great, but this is another opportunity for them to 508 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: pile up some sacks here and impact the game for sure. 509 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: Great game for the Markets. No, I'm just waiting like 510 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 1: I'm waiting. I'm waiting for my queue ahead, go ahead, 511 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 1: hit it, Derek, No, I just wanted to know, like 512 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: I get the defensive front, and I was a little 513 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: less concerned about that matchup because it sounds like he's 514 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: definitely a guy you can sack. Yeah. My bigger question 515 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: is looking at the cornerbacks and how they match up. 516 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 1: This will be yes, this be the best wide receiver 517 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: that they have faced so far this season, DeAndre Hopkins. 518 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a better receiver that they faced 519 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: this year. Do you come as better? Yeah, I don't 520 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: know if I believe that, And if you go back 521 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 1: and look at their numbers for the last couple of years, 522 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,359 Speaker 1: I think DeAndre Hopkins, even with lesser quarterbacks, has been 523 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,679 Speaker 1: a more productive But it's arguable, it's arguable, let's at 524 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: least say, let's at least say from the standpoint of that, 525 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: it's an arguable thing that he is at least, if 526 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 1: not the top receiver, then the second receiver that they 527 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: will have faced this year. That being said, how do 528 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: you think they match up? Because he does present some 529 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: some issues for any team because he's a guy that 530 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: can go up and get the ball. He's a guy 531 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: that can go down feel. He has a lot of 532 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: things in his game that makes him a very dangerous 533 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: wide receiver. This is football one on one. But if 534 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: it was Eli Manning, I would be like, this is 535 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: a decent matchup, Like you're gonna give up some yards, 536 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 1: but the the line's gonna pressure him, They're gonna get 537 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: him on the ground. But Watson's ability to create players 538 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: makes it scary for anybody. I don't care if you've 539 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: got the legion of boom. I don't really like the 540 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys just following one cornerback to with, you know, with 541 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: another receiver. Ever, but if I'm down in the red zone, 542 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 1: I will do that. If I would you match up 543 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,400 Speaker 1: Byron Jones? I mean Byron Jones was a first round 544 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 1: pick because he can jump, not because he could play. 545 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: Because he could jump. This is why he got him 546 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: in the first round. He's gotten a better as a 547 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: as a corner. He's having a good year so far. 548 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 1: He's an athletic freak and that you're gonna need that 549 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 1: because that's the type of playball well hopkins Um does 550 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,479 Speaker 1: a lot. He's a big jumper, so Um, I wouldn't 551 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: do it all over the field, but when I get 552 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: to that situation, I'm at least gonna help myself not 553 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: to say that Cheeto hasn't can't get up there and 554 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: make plays and do that kind of stuff too, But 555 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 1: I will probably put Byron on him just in those situations. Yeah, 556 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: I agree, because and Hopkins, he's not like he doesn't 557 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 1: have that Deaz build, but they throw him a lot 558 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: of jump ball, you know, especially in the red zone, 559 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: like they're gonna try to he's lean and he can jump. Yeah. 560 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: I like that matchup, which you're as always you're gonna 561 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: give up yards, you will. But what scares me is 562 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: if Watson, if it becomes backyard football, especially talk about 563 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: these safeties. I mean, Byron Jones can do a great 564 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: job all day, but if there's a miscommunication there and 565 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 1: the plays eight seconds long, are the safety is going 566 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: to be in the right position. You know, you talked 567 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 1: about Watson being having a strong arm and also being 568 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: very mobile and that you know, Michael Vick, that is 569 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 1: what comes to mind there. But but accurate, you know, 570 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: that's one thing that he hasn't really been he was. 571 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: I went and looked at he's twenty seventh in the league. 572 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: And accuracy now that's twenty eight. So that's that's the 573 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: issue that those guys are the same way. They can 574 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 1: throw the ball from point eight to point B. But um, 575 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: I don't I think is Watson what's he doing with interceptions? 576 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 1: He throwing few, throwing one in every single game at 577 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: least one, so you know. Yeah, But and they've been 578 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: down too, you know, they've been down just like trying 579 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: to get themselves back in game. They'll have a running 580 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: game that they can lean on like Dallas has. I'm 581 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: glad you brought that up, which I guess we can 582 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: talk about that tomorrow. But they've been working in a 583 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: crappy deficit in three of their four games. They actually 584 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 1: built a big deficit against the Colts on Sunday, but 585 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: in their games that game still came down overtime. Right, Yeah, Oh, 586 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: their defense is not as good as the talent suggests. 587 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 1: That's the only conclusion I can come to. But they 588 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: were trailing in they were trailing New England twenty four 589 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: to six. At one point, they were trailing Tennessee their 590 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: Week two opponents fourteen nothing and twenty to six against 591 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: the Giants in Week three. So if the Cowboys can 592 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: get out to a hot start on offense, which they 593 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: haven't been able to do for most of this season, 594 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: but if they can, it could be good in terms of, 595 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, make DeShawn throw. He's averaging thirty seven attempts 596 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: per game, and some of those are going to be 597 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 1: picks based on prior experience, even with this team who 598 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: doesn't have well, that's a great point. That is a 599 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: really good points. Given the lack of you know, being 600 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: able to get some picks and turnovers, who would be 601 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: the guy that would most likely be able to catch 602 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: that ball and get any interception? I mean, if you 603 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: want to go past experience, it has to be Jeff 604 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: heat I would assume. I mean, we still haven't seen 605 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: these corners really be ballhawks. I haven't seen these corners 606 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: turn you know, what would have been just a ball 607 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 1: they knocked down into an actual interception, not in regular season. 608 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: We should so I start seeing that. I don't. I 609 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 1: don't know that we should play that game. Who's going 610 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: to get the first pick on this team? You want 611 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: Tom all right, it won't be a defensive back, Thomas. 612 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 1: I'm kind of thinking it's gonna be a linebacker. That's 613 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: exactly what I'm thinking. It's gonna be a linebacker. And 614 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: that okay, even if even if Watson has shown a 615 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: pension for picks, I think it's way more likely that 616 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: you affect the game in the pocket. Like if DeMarcus 617 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: Lawrence can rip around and and you know, strip him 618 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: or something. I think that's based on what we've seen, 619 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: it's more likely than forcing them into a ton of picks. 620 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: I gotta see that before I think it's going to happen. 621 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 1: So and I just and that's not even just do 622 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a while, Like it's been a while 623 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 1: since his team has had corners that get intercepts regularly. 624 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: Like that's been a long while. Even going back to Terrence. 625 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: That was knock on Terrence for a long time was 626 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: Terence is a really good cornerback. But Terence will knock 627 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: the ball down way more than he's going to catch 628 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: the interception. So we don't This team hasn't had that 629 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 1: guy that's got the instincts to jump into the throwing 630 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: lane on a regular basis, at least like in the 631 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: time that I've been here, we haven't had that guy. 632 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: The only one, Like you said, Jeff, he's the one 633 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: that has been the closest to making those kind of plays, 634 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: but then he drops the ball. But even the numbers 635 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: for that, like his numbers are very modest for interceptions. 636 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like he's in the league leaders. 637 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,959 Speaker 1: He's just leading this team which has been deficient when 638 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: it comes to trying to get interceptions. So the other 639 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 1: which going back to affecting the game in the pocket, 640 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: like I hope David Irving can do something in this 641 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: game because this is football one on one to a degree. 642 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 1: But as mobile as he is, Watson just loves to 643 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 1: he wants to be moving toward the line of scrimmage. Obviously, 644 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: like if the rush he doesn't completely trust his pocket. 645 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 1: He loves to stay hit. No, yeah, he loves to 646 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: step up like he's gonna try to step up right 647 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: into the space and it's it happens every time, Like 648 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: he's looking to throw. But he wants to be moving 649 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 1: forward because he can go and get seven eight nine yards, 650 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,479 Speaker 1: which is which is not But that's not great right 651 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: now when you think about it from the standpoint of 652 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: where the Cowboys right now having the most injury issues 653 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: right in the middle. When you're talking about those two 654 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 1: defensive tackles, like you got Crawford there, but Blique's out, 655 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 1: You're just getting David Irving back, So who knows if 656 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: he's even gonna be active. You have anybody to push 657 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: the pocket, need him to play well, both of them. 658 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: Need David to play fifteen sixteen snaps and I need 659 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 1: Tyrone to fall out. Yeah, this is a game. I 660 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: would definitely use David a lot as much as I 661 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: thought I could get away with with his level of energy. Yeah, 662 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 1: I just wonder, I don't. I mean, you've definitely, especially 663 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: their right tackle gets beat all the time. Like DeMarcus 664 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 1: Lawrence is going to have a good game, but I 665 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: wonder if he'll be able to actually finish the play 666 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 1: on a consistent basis. And that's because he's gonna push up. Yeah, 667 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: and that's not his fault. That's just Watson's tough guy 668 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 1: to defend. Yeah. All right, let's take our final break 669 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: and when we come back, we'll keep talking about this 670 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 1: matchup and you can also send us your question through 671 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: Twitter at Cowboys Break.

I'm like, man, 714 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: I would have made some nice comments to that. You 715 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: have some stuff ready for that. Why did you give 716 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 1: me the boring promo right now? Because because forty five 717 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: minutes show, Yeah and right, and we spend five minutes 718 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 1: on that, it's awkward. Miles Austin will be coming in 719 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: in a second, right, so it's on with the show. Yeah, right, 720 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 1: you still up, Dave? I thought you were right. No 721 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 1: like to talk about the Dyes. Okay, So here's a 722 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 1: question from Twitter out of the Cowboys defense matching up 723 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:08,919 Speaker 1: against this team, who would be the guy that would 724 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 1: be the most surprising to make a play for you 725 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: in this upcoming Parents Williams defense. Sy, we're talking about 726 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense. I just um, I wonder, well, yeah, I 727 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 1: don't think Sean Lee's gonna play, but that's an easy one. 728 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: I wonder how much the way the Texans want to 729 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: play suits the linebackers period. Honestly, Uh, it's just a spread. 730 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: They're they're playing spread option football. They're playing college football. 731 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 1: And I don't mean that as a you know, slight, 732 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: but they don't target. They don't target their tight ends 733 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: or their running backs that much, and they don't run 734 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 1: the ball that well. But that seems like that might 735 00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 1: be even more like what an opportunity for these linebackers 736 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: because now what they're doing is they're playing a lot 737 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 1: at either they're blitzing or they're playing coverage, which for 738 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: both of these linebackers, that seems to be what they 739 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 1: do well. Right I will, can they cover that well 740 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 1: against the personnel that'll be on the field, is what 741 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 1: I'm trying to say. They're gonna be in zone? Why not? 742 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 1: But you have to make them one dimensional. It doesn't 743 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 1: matter if they don't want to run the ball or not. 744 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 1: You have to continue to put them in third and 745 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: long situations. So I think that they're gonna try to 746 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: run it some and then when they're gonna have to 747 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 1: keep tabs on that quarterback, which again I think when 748 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,359 Speaker 1: you have young linebackers that are fast, that can run 749 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: sideline the sideline, I feel good about them in that 750 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 1: situation against a Watson. Right, that's fair because Layton Vanderesh 751 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 1: and Jalen Smith are not your average linebacker when it 752 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 1: comes to athleticism. They're much faster than that. I just 753 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 1: so they target their tight end six times a game 754 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 1: and they're running backs three and I just yeah, And 755 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: I just said, Watson throws thirty seven times a game, 756 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 1: So that's thirty times where he's targeting receivers. And again, 757 00:37:58,080 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 1: it's all a lot of it is stuff near the 758 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, trying to create easy throws for him. 759 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 1: So if Kiki Kuti takes a pop pass coming around 760 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 1: the end, is Layton Vanderesh gonna get there? He m? 761 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 1: He better? That's a great way to phrase it. He better. 762 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 1: That kind of scares me. Yeah, but I'll tell you 763 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: that just listening to what you just say right there, 764 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 1: what scares me even more is the safeties. We talked 765 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 1: about the safeties, We talked about the struggles that the 766 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: Cowboys have had there, and now you're talking about a 767 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 1: team that now throws the ball thirty seven times a 768 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 1: game and throws it primarily to wide receivers. That should 769 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: scare everybody. That should make everybody at least that's a 770 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 1: matchup you better keep your eye on and see what 771 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 1: your safeties are doing, because this is a team that 772 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 1: can get behind you if you're not playing good sound defense. Yeah, 773 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,800 Speaker 1: that's gonna be my next question. We talked about the 774 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,839 Speaker 1: corners and then we mentioned Jeff Heath who is still 775 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: battling through some injuries. And now with the other safeties 776 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:52,400 Speaker 1: that you have left, how I mean, what is the 777 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 1: level that you need to play up to when he 778 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,240 Speaker 1: comes to safety looking at these white receivers and knowing 779 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: that this quarterback can throw down the field pretty well. 780 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, no, I agree with you. I'm 781 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: asking how much does your safety really need to put 782 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,800 Speaker 1: in the work in this specific game. I think this 783 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 1: is a huge game for the safeties. Again, up until 784 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: last week, I didn't think that the secondary had really 785 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 1: been challenged. Last week, they got challenged and that offense 786 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: were able. They were able to put up some points 787 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 1: in some yards. Is this more challenging than last week? 788 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 1: I think for different reasons. Last week you had a 789 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: more skilled passer I think that you were going up 790 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: against this week. I think you've got you got to 791 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: deal with the fact that this quarterback can run. And 792 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: like Dave was saying, it's kind of multifaceted. On any 793 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: given play, there are probably four different options of things 794 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 1: that can happen even before he gets to the point 795 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: where he actually decides who he's going to throw the 796 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 1: ball too. That takes a lot of just kind of 797 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:53,359 Speaker 1: understanding what they're doing, being true to your assignment, doing 798 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 1: your job, and making sure that that that you don't 799 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: let a big play get behind you. So it's it's 800 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: challenging in different ways. A I don't know if I 801 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: would say once more challenging or less challenging the other 802 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 1: just different kinds of challenges. Nick usaid, No, So are 803 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 1: you based on last game? I mean, are you expecting 804 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 1: the safeties to be able to play better this game? Yeah, 805 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 1: a little bit. I just don't think they'll be um, 806 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:19,239 Speaker 1: they'll be challenged as much in that particular way. I 807 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: think that they'll be okay. I think that their strength 808 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 1: of what Houston's wants to do will match up better 809 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,439 Speaker 1: with what the Cowboys strength is with the guys up front. 810 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: I think they can get after that line. I think 811 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 1: it'll cost problems for for Watson. I don't think he's 812 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 1: the type of passer obviously that that Stafford is, and 813 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 1: so I think he'll he's throwing the ball to the 814 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 1: other team and he's not that accurate in some of 815 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 1: his throws. So I don't think they'll be challenged as much. 816 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean that they won't, you know, make some big 817 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: plays on him. It just has all the makings of 818 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,959 Speaker 1: a shootout type of game, and those type of games 819 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: can get you know, he can get scary because the 820 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 1: Cowboys gotta on the earth side. They got they gotta 821 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: be able to score points to get there. But I mean, 822 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,799 Speaker 1: I don't think it'll be like it was last week. 823 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 1: I think the safeties will be okay. I just think 824 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: it's I agree with that, it's just different. Like I 825 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 1: don't Deshaun Watson's not going to be like moving and 826 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 1: baiting safeties. I don't think he's on that level which 827 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford is. But I hope, I hope the pass 828 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 1: rush can make life difficult on Watson. I'd way rather 829 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 1: he run it ten times for sixty yards than run 830 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: around in a circle. And then you know, the safeties 831 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 1: banging to each other like the Keystone Cops, and all 832 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:29,799 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you know Will Fullers in the end 833 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,360 Speaker 1: zone seventy yards later. And that's my concern is he 834 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: buys extra time, and when he buys extra time, I 835 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,400 Speaker 1: don't care who you are, even if you're the best safety, 836 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: the best corner, keeping up with guys, especially guys out 837 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,600 Speaker 1: of the caliber of DeAndre Hopkins when the play breaks down, 838 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 1: good luck with that. So it's gonna be so imperative 839 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: on them to not only get to him, but to 840 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,319 Speaker 1: get him down. Don't let him buy that extra time, 841 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 1: because if he buys it extra time, all bets are off. 842 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: Don't even get him down on it. I mean, hopefully 843 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: you do, but like harass him to the point that 844 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 1: he has to take his eyes down down. You know, 845 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,959 Speaker 1: you can't look to extend to just run out again, 846 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 1: I'll take that. Kill me with a thousand paper cuts 847 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: running for five yards at a time before you hit 848 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,840 Speaker 1: seventy yard touches. That's also where I trust my linebackers. 849 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 1: I trust these two linebackers that in nickel situations, if 850 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 1: he gets outside the pocket, they can run him down. 851 00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:19,840 Speaker 1: I really do trust him to do that. Now, again, 852 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 1: it's a it's a matter of trust because we haven't 853 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 1: had to see them do that against this caliber of 854 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: running quarterback. Because I don't know if Russell did that 855 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 1: a whole lot in the game against the Cowboys, but 856 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,120 Speaker 1: I trust him to do that. I trust him way 857 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: more do that than I trust the safeties if the 858 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 1: plays break down to be able to cover downfield. I 859 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: didn't make that face because I disagree with you. I'm 860 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 1: just thinking about, you know, three chunk touchdowns given up 861 00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 1: in the last two games. I just I would probably 862 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 1: bet that there will be another one this weekend. I'm 863 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 1: with you, hopefully it's not mop not a lot of Yeah, 864 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: here's another question from Twitter. And I'm not a huge 865 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 1: believer on the whole home field advantage stuff, but the 866 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys have lost are all their games wrote games? So 867 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 1: given the matchup over there and the Houston is playing 868 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 1: at home coming off of one win, how big it's this? 869 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: And I hate asking this question, but it is. I 870 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 1: get it a lot. It's not, but the home field advantage, 871 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 1: I just I'm not a huge believering, but it matters. 872 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 1: A bad question now, I don't think so either. I 873 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,800 Speaker 1: think it matters from the standpoint that when you're on 874 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 1: the road, it limits what you're able to do because 875 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 1: noise becomes a factor, right, and so you know some 876 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 1: of the audibles that you may want to make, some 877 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 1: of the things you want to do. It but at home, 878 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,360 Speaker 1: when you're at home, it's not the same. And I 879 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 1: will tell you this this weekend, expect, especially if the 880 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 1: Texans are in the game, this is gonna be loud 881 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 1: because it's it's different when you have a team that 882 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,120 Speaker 1: you're playing that's just a team. It's a whole different 883 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,360 Speaker 1: thing when the fan base hates the other team, and 884 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,279 Speaker 1: there is that situation. You see that on the road 885 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 1: sometimes when you're at some of your division rivals when 886 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 1: they hate the other team, there's a whole different level 887 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: of vitriol that the fans can inject it too the game, 888 00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 1: and that will be there this weekend. Make no mistake 889 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 1: about it. Houston fans hate the Cowboys. Houston hates Dallas. 890 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 1: I mean as a city you know, and probably true, 891 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,879 Speaker 1: and that's just the way that it is. And that's 892 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,799 Speaker 1: why I mean, it makes for a good rivalry. Um, 893 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:15,399 Speaker 1: as you're gonna intimate. Actually wrote it, it's this week, 894 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,400 Speaker 1: No I wrote it today. I just I feel like 895 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: Dallas and Houston. I think they should play every year. 896 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:21,320 Speaker 1: I think the nfls can figure out a way to 897 00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 1: do that, and I bet it happens at some point. 898 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 1: But um this it'll be interesting. But remember a lot 899 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,319 Speaker 1: of Dallas fans will be at that game as well, 900 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:34,359 Speaker 1: so the atmosphere homefield advantage isn't a big deal if 901 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: you're proven that you're capable of dealing with it. I mean, 902 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 1: it's six and two on the road in sixteen and 903 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 1: eight no on the road in fourteen. But this team 904 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 1: has looked like trash on the road going back to 905 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 1: last year and certainly this year. So I think it's 906 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 1: a thing. You got to prove that it's not a thing. 907 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,600 Speaker 1: There you go, you know, So we'll see what happens 908 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 1: and tomorrow we'll get into the Texans defense versus the 909 00:44:56,520 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense. For Derek Gildon in David hell amember Garcia. 910 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:05,400 Speaker 1: This has been the break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com. Great. 911 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 912 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club
