That's happening this sundy at at and T Stadium. 0:00:56.680 --> 0:00:59.160 It is the home opener for the Cowboys. They are 0:00:59.200 --> 0:00:59.639 looking to. 0:00:59.560 --> 0:00:59.880 Go to two. 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:03.280 Jet's also looking to go to and Oh. So it'll 0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:05.960 be a fun game, interesting game. Lots of things for 0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:08.840 us to talk about today. We're gonna start with us 0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:12.080 injury updates. There were several there are several players that 0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:15.039 are still on the injury report. So Patrick, give me 0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:15.959 some updates where we look at. 0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:19.360 Yes, we're gonna try to navigate around Ambar's panic and 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:23.360 seeing Zach Martin appear on the injury. 0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:26.480 Yes, I was like, Okay, are you kidding me? 0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:27.560 We're gonna work through this. 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:31.640 Let's just breathe. We're gonna work through this because Zach Martin. 0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:33.880 Yes, he did pop up on the injury report as 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:36.520 limited in yesterday's practice, which was a full practice with 0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:40.600 a growing issue slash injury. But in Zach Martin's Weekly 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:44.000 addressed to one oh five point three from the fanel yesterday, 0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:48.160 he said, quote unquote, I'm good, just dealing with some tightness. 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:49.960 They were taking care of me today, end quote. So 0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:53.520 it sounds as if nothing mad. Yeah, just that kind 0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:55.600 of day. And you know some veteran guys, so you know, 0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.880 be extra precautious. So no concern there for Zach Martin. 0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:01.320 Let's fingers crossed that stays that way because we don't 0:02:01.320 --> 0:02:02.200 want to AMBARTI panic. 0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:04.120 Donovan Wilson, great news. 0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:09.160 Shock, you're the Cowboys, Okay, if something happens to y'all 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:11.680 like that, that's full panic. 0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:12.720 No good news. 0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:16.000 Donovan Wilson upgraded to limit it. That was his first 0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:20.640 padded practice participation since suffering his hamstring injury in the 0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:21.560 first week of training. 0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:21.840 Camp. 0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:22.639 Oh calf injury. 0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:24.320 I'm sorry, since the first week of training camp so 0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:28.080 before they had on pads. Yes, since last season, so 0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:31.440 Donovan Wilson. It just made a huge lead toward getting 0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:33.960 on the field on Sunday. Brandon Cooks, he was d 0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:36.600 and p did not participate on yesterday, which was expected 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:39.760 based on what Mike McCarthy said yesterday morning. He'll likely 0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:42.760 be in the rehab group again today. That's that's what 0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:46.120 was intimated by general manager and owner Jerry Jones on 0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:48.760 the fan this morning, not you know, thirty minutes ago. 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.320 So but he also said that there's a long way 0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:54.080 to go between now and kickoff, so they're not making 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:56.880 any kind of determinations on Brandon Cooks right now. He said, 0:02:56.960 --> 0:02:59.560 quote unquote, it's not like he needs the reps. So 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:01.680 sounds like Cooks could be a game time decision, but 0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:04.400 if he doesn't practice, that doesn't exclude him from playing. 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:09.000 See you got Tyler Smith. Sounds like Tyler Smith probably 0:03:09.040 --> 0:03:11.000 not going to go. We'll see how it plays out. 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:12.960 But Jerry Jones on the fan this morning did not 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:15.720 sound optimistic at all. And then when you combine that 0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:17.760 with what Mike McCarthy has been saying this week just 0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:20.160 doesn't seem to be the case. He Jerry did say 0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:24.680 that Tyler is quote unquote the least possible probable to 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:26.720 play to be acted this Sunday against the Jets. So 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.480 it sounds like it's going to be another round for 0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:32.400 Chunma Ydoga and who else we got Tyron Smith. He 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.480 was a full participant and both of these practices. 0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:36.640 So I'm going to. 0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:38.520 Turn it really quickly to the Jets because here's what's 0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:41.520 interesting to me from the Jets standpoint one, something that 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:46.120 we saw yesterday. Breece Hall, Makai Beckton, and Dwayne Brown. 0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:49.040 They're all still limited, even though Thursday was a full 0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:51.360 practice for the Jets, so they're still limited. And we 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:53.960 talk about stopping Breese Hall. We talk about Cowboys defensive 0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:57.880 front against the Jets line. Jets O line not healthy, 0:03:57.920 --> 0:04:01.320 Breeze Hall dealing with a knee issueg zureline is now 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:04.680 fifty to fifty to play against the Cowboys. Now for me, 0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:08.640 this is where this is why that information is key. 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:12.240 If he does play, he's obviously playing on a hurt 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.160 growing one that's hurt to the point where they're considering 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:19.400 sitting him. How does that impact Robert Sealer's offensive game 0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:21.880 plan and Nathaniel Hackett's offensive game plan? 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:24.680 Does that make them more aggressive because they know. 0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:26.680 That they might not have the distance that they normally 0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:29.599 have as far as field goal attempts for Greg Zerline? Also, 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:32.839 would they give a guy like Cavante Turpin more opportunities 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:36.680 in the kick returning game because zero line, if he's 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:39.680 the placekicker with a hurt growing, maybe that minimizes or 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:42.680 eliminates the possibility of touchback. So something to keep an 0:04:42.680 --> 0:04:45.320 eye on their, ladies and gentlemen. Does Greg Zerline play 0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:47.520 and if he does, he's not completely healthy. What does 0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:48.320 that do for the Jets? 0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:50.680 One thing to note about Greg Zerline while he was here, 0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:54.360 that was taught that he didn't have the same level 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:58.000 of distance that he once did. His leg wasn't as 0:04:58.000 --> 0:04:59.800 strong as it once was. I wonder how much a 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.680 growing going to your point, how much a groin injury 0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:06.080 affects that even more when you talk about distance, that 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:07.720 that I think may become an issue for them. 0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:08.800 Yeah, that's a big one. 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:12.080 But give me a pulse on what you guys think 0:05:12.080 --> 0:05:14.560 if if Brandon Cooks can't go for the Cowboys how 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:16.839 much does that affect this team and what they're trying 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:17.600 to do offensively. 0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:20.360 I think it affects them a lot, I really do. 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:24.520 And and it puts a lot more pressure on Michael Gallup. 0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:27.120 Maybe that's what you want as a cowboy fan to 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:30.440 for him to have to to get more of an opportunity. 0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:33.520 It puts a lot of pressure on Jalen Tolbert as well, 0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:37.000 you know. And so you've got two guys right there, 0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:39.599 you know, you're everybody. It was it was nice to 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:42.800 see Gallup have a reception in that game the other day, 0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:48.960 start the second half. But yeah, Brandon Cooks against this secondary, 0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:52.160 you're going to need guys that find ways to separate. 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:56.159 You're and you know not to Tollbird and and Gallop 0:05:56.279 --> 0:06:00.440 can't do that. But the one guy that consistently sides 0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:04.560 Lamb that could separate is Cooks. You know. So if 0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:07.800 it turns into you know, there has to be a 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:10.880 sureness or the way you run a route. There has 0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:14.000 to be some separation there if you can gain it, 0:06:14.120 --> 0:06:17.599 because this secondary will make it different difficult for you, 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.160 and their pass rush will make it difficult for you too. 0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:25.720 So to me, if it's I would say that it's 0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:28.640 one of those one of those serious things. If you're 0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:30.599 you know, like we Ambar would talk about if you 0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:33.560 were to take Zach Martin out, I think taking Brandon 0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:36.919 Cooks out is just as important, just from the standpoint 0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:40.920 of how I potentially can move the football in this. 0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:45.240 Game Without a Brandon Cooks. I mean, this offense completely 0:06:45.360 --> 0:06:48.560 changes in my eyes. I think he's that extra little 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:52.800 cherry on top that brings the spark, spark into the 0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:57.080 offense that we haven't seen it working in full go 0:06:57.560 --> 0:07:00.400 just yet. We haven't seen the passing game be at 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:03.840 its best just yet, so they're still trying to find 0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:08.560 that game. Obviously different weather conditions here, but also here 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:11.600 in the comments you, Brian, you broke down the defense 0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:15.480 we heard yesterday. I believe it was Micah Parsons talking 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:19.280 about this is a really, really good defense, and he 0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:22.920 even jokingly mentioned it to Dak like, hey, you guys 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.800 gotta take it serious because it's a tough defense to 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:29.680 go up again. So you talk about possibly losing that 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:33.640 type of element speed, I think it does change your 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:35.600 game a little bit, but you still have other guys 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:39.280 that you can still use. We saw again we talked 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.320 about Cavanta Turpin what he was able to do. Hopefully 0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:46.680 that's something that becomes more of a consistent in a 0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:52.720 consistent basis, because that hasn't happened yet, but we'll see. 0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:55.880 And he did Brendan Cooks, he did mention like if 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:59.160 it wasn't one hundred percent, he wouldn't be playing. So 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:04.120 I'm really curious to see what his actual condition is 0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:06.960 and what the medical staff really thinks. 0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:09.440 I think I think that if if if it was 0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:12.880 a legitimate knee sprain, I don't think he plays. Oh yeah, 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.200 I mean that's where and I think that you know, 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:17.440 when Patrick got to visit with him in the locker 0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:19.280 room and others have got to talk to him, and 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:22.720 you know that that Jerry Jones is talking about that 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.360 well he doesn't need to have reps and all that, 0:08:25.960 --> 0:08:29.360 I think that you know it it in that regard, 0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:32.200 it does bode well. I'm like I said, I just 0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:35.120 feel like where this team is at right now, you 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:38.760 need as many people stressing this defense out as you can. 0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:42.120 And you take him out there, there's that stress level 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:46.920 goes away for the Jets, and so I you know this, 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:49.640 I want to believe this guy is going to play. 0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:52.600 I want to because if it was, if it was 0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:54.719 as doom and gloom as everybody you know. I mean, 0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:57.680 there were some reports yesterday coming out about you know, 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.240 you know, Knees spraying nes knees brain. I'm thinking, well, 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:03.719 he's not gonna play. But the fact that you know 0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:06.040 that he is where is that I think there's a 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:07.440 possibility that he does play. 0:09:07.520 --> 0:09:09.520 I think I think it goes to the wire in 0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:13.000 the aspect of I think the Cowboys hold him out 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:15.920 of today's walk through and tomorrow's walk through as well, 0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:18.800 and just use this as as an ice week for him, 0:09:18.880 --> 0:09:21.600 so to speak, so that it's as rested and as 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:23.840 good as possible going against the Jets, Because to answer 0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:27.000 your question, Derek, I think it'd be a really big loss. Now, Yes, 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.360 to Ambar's point, you have other horses in the stable. 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:32.000 You have Michael Gallup, who you're gonna task with stepping up. 0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:32.839 You have Jalen. 0:09:32.640 --> 0:09:36.360 Tobert who would love to have this opportunity, especially this 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:38.360 early in the season, because that young man's champion at 0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:40.160 the bit to get out there and show that training 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:42.800 camp and preseason wasn't a fluke. And I love what 0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:45.160 you said about Cavante Turpin, because that's what I was thinking, 0:09:45.160 --> 0:09:45.880 as well. 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:48.560 As like a third body who could. 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:51.520 Potentially be, you know, someone who can get separation, who 0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:55.400 can give that Brandon Cook's s esque kind of quickness 0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:57.240 in space and on quick raps and stuff like that, 0:09:57.280 --> 0:09:59.920 and then that would by default maybe that brings do 0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:02.040 Vaughn more into the backfield and gets duce von. 0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:03.880 So I'm involved. 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:07.439 I'm assuming that if Brandon Cooks doesn't play, obviously the 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:09.439 Cowboys are going to have a contingency plan for that. 0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:12.080 For me, that's going to be a package of gallop 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:15.480 with Tobert and then you mix thin Cavante turpin as well, 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:17.199 which you know, like I said, it should allow do 0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:19.480 small rips in the backfield. But I mean, there's no 0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:22.079 way to sugarcoat it. If Cooks is off of the field, 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:25.000 that's you just took a nuke out of the equation. 0:10:25.559 --> 0:10:29.280 I mean, Michael Gallup is capable, Turping is capable Tobert. 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:31.800 He's shown he's capable in preseason and training camp, not 0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:34.480 just yet in a regular season game. But none of 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.760 those guys, in no disrespect him, none of those guys 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:40.079 have Cooks' skill set. But I'm with Brian, I feel 0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:41.560 like it's going to come down to the wire. But 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:43.160 I think Cook's plays. 0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:46.000 I think that you're back to if he doesn't play, 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:48.760 you're back to what you were last year, which is 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:51.000 if they can figure out a way to neutralize. 0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:53.760 Hopefully with the better Tobart though absolutely you can. You 0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:54.720 can make an argument. 0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:57.640 You can make the argument that you think Gallup is 0:10:57.640 --> 0:10:59.280 going to be better. You can make the argument that 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:01.840 you think told will be better. We have not seen 0:11:01.880 --> 0:11:04.160 that yet though, right, And that's the part like until 0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:06.480 you see it, you don't know if you can necessarily 0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:09.360 trust it in these games. And what we saw last 0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:13.040 season was if teams could figure out a way, particularly 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:14.319 there at the end of season, they fgure out a 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:16.400 way to take Ceede. Lamb out of the game, then 0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:18.599 that that had a big effect. 0:11:18.720 --> 0:11:20.160 Your tight ends step up big. 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:23.600 That's going to be another layer to it as well, 0:11:24.000 --> 0:11:26.440 is you know, stretching the middle, like taxing the middle 0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:27.959 of the field, applying pressure to the middle of the 0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:29.800 field in those linebackers. So if cooks Iss not on 0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:31.160 the field, I mean you need your tight ends to 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:33.360 step up and make these catches anyway, and I think 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:35.920 they are going to be tasked with doing that much 0:11:35.920 --> 0:11:38.040 more so than they were in inclement weather in New York. 0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:41.840 But without Cooks on the field, you got somebody else. 0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:44.600 Well, I mean, and how much Now does that mean 0:11:44.640 --> 0:11:47.640 that Lamb plays slot right? You know? And now? And 0:11:47.720 --> 0:11:50.360 so to me that the matchup of him and Michael 0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:54.480 Carter and the slot favors the Cowboys. But do the 0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:59.760 Jets counter by saying we'll stick Read or we'll stick 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:02.640 Sauce Gardener in the slot. We're not gonna let you. 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:06.440 That's they don't want to move it now that they 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:09.280 if you if you watch when they got down in 0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:12.040 the red zone, there was one series where they flipped 0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:14.959 the corners where they put Sauce on the right side 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.280 and brought Reed. And I wonder if it had to 0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:20.960 do what they felt like that that Buffalo was a 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:23.400 right handed team. That the way that they use their 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:26.440 red zone offense is they attacked the right because when 0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:29.800 you see the flow, it's always seems like it's the quarterback. 0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:31.960 It was the flow. Everything is going to the right 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:34.200 side there, and maybe they felt like that, you know, 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.400 with Reid, maybe he'd be a little bit more physical 0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:39.480 over there. But you you you have to figure out 0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:42.360 and and the fact that they've probably well not probably, 0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:46.400 they've practiced all week without cooks. You know, I'm sure 0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:50.080 that they have a really good slot plan because you 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:54.079 know they I would find I would find as many 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:59.440 ways possible to get Turpin or e be okay, Turpin 0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:03.600 or Tolbert on sast Gardner. There you go. I am 0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:06.800 going to figure out you were going to cover somebody 0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:09.440 all day. I'm gonna make you just run today. I'm 0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:11.559 not gonna let you. I'm probably not gonna throw a 0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:14.160 ball your direction, but I'm gonna make you run all 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:18.560 day today and not playing this game because I'm not. 0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:21.480 If I don't have cooks, I got to now find 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:25.200 a way to use Lamb in another way to kind 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:27.560 of create a will match in a favorable matchup. Yeah, 0:13:27.600 --> 0:13:29.120 that's my idea. Yep, I'm with you. 0:13:29.200 --> 0:13:30.720 All right, We're gonna take our first break. When we 0:13:30.760 --> 0:13:33.000 come back, I'll start diving into this game. We got 0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:35.439 some questions on that. We'll get some keys of the game. 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:38.000 Amber has a game for us in the final segment, 0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:39.560 and then we'll get our picks. We're going to get 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:41.480 some picks today. See what everybody thinks is gonna happen 0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:43.559 this Sunday. We'll be back Dallas.

It is the second segment segment of the 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:15.760 Break LIVEEMSS WBC Mortgage Studios. 0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:15.760 At the Star. 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:19.880 This segment is presented to you by Blockchain dot Com. 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:22.360 Here's a question I have for you guys. I was 0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:25.320 watching the game last night, the Eagles. They get the win, 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:29.560 but it became very apparent to me. I think looking 0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:32.280 at the football watch last weekend and then watching again 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:36.120 last night, I think across the league, defenses are quite 0:16:36.120 --> 0:16:38.680 a bit ahead of offenses and My question for you 0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:41.720 is do you agree with that statement, and if so, 0:16:42.240 --> 0:16:43.640 what do you think is the reason for that. 0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:48.480 I do agree, and I think it's largely in part 0:16:48.760 --> 0:16:51.160 due to the fact that, you know, more often than not, 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:54.440 hit coaches just want to protect their starters in the preseason. 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:57.520 It's particularly offensively when you're talking about, you know, franchise 0:16:57.600 --> 0:17:00.840 quarterbacks and key offensive linemen because you don't want to 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:03.120 lose an offensive lineman. You see around the league that 0:17:03.160 --> 0:17:05.600 ol depth is an issue, you know, particularly here in 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.719 Dallas as well, behind those five starters. But when you 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:11.840 have a situation where often you have these head coaches 0:17:11.840 --> 0:17:13.159 that are like, you know what, we're not going to 0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:15.920 risk it, or we're going to greatly minimize the number 0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:18.679 of reps that our starters have in the preseason, kind 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:21.080 of still using trying to use the third game, which 0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:23.240 would typically be the dress rehearsal in a four game 0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:26.480 scenario in preseason, still trying to get those guys some reps, 0:17:26.480 --> 0:17:29.560 if any reps at all. But when you don't have 0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:33.119 those preseason reps, then you're going to have your offenses 0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:35.240 come out and they're trying to find themselves, and then 0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:35.680 you have a. 0:17:35.600 --> 0:17:39.440 Situation like during training camps, the offense are the ones 0:17:39.480 --> 0:17:42.000 who have the advantage at practicing. 0:17:41.640 --> 0:17:42.359 And one on ones. 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:47.920 Yeah, one on ones, But I think, I don't know. 0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:52.399 I think they get a different kind of work the 0:17:52.440 --> 0:17:55.359 offense versus what the defense is actually doing, because we 0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:59.040 know the defense cannot be full go. So in the 0:17:59.080 --> 0:18:04.320 scenario you're killing me with those eyes. I don't know, 0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:09.520 but I think in this scenario you're presenting, I alast 0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:12.159 agree with you. At first, it makes perfect sense, but 0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:15.119 then I started thinking of how training camp usually is, 0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:18.800 and it's the opposite where I feel like the offense 0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:23.280 is actually getting more quote unquote valuable work and being 0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:27.840 in sync with players and throwing those passes as opposed 0:18:27.880 --> 0:18:30.919 to what the defense are doing exact. 0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:33.399 But then let's add in the context of let's take 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:36.480 the Cowboys for example, Right, the Cowboys, you have a 0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:38.879 new play caller, right, and maybe somewhere else in the 0:18:38.960 --> 0:18:40.840 league you have a new play caller or a second 0:18:40.880 --> 0:18:41.440 year guy. 0:18:41.280 --> 0:18:43.159 Like Nathaniel Hackett or whatever the case may be. 0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:44.960 So you have a new play caller or new ish 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:47.800 play caller and they're trying to do installs. Whereas if 0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:50.200 you flip it if you keep it to the data side, 0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:52.960 Dallas as an example, this is Dan quinn system, and 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:55.399 for the most part, this is his same assistant coaching staff, 0:18:55.400 --> 0:18:57.520
