Yeah, 14 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: it is a huge games for the Falcons. You know, 15 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,199 Speaker 1: you've got teams if you look at what happened last night, 16 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: you know with the with the Seahawks winning and the 17 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 1: Packers losing. I mean, these are teams who are kind 18 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,320 Speaker 1: of looking at wildcard situations for the playoffs. So you know, 19 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: you don't want to fall behind in any way and 20 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 1: that so, yeah, both teams trying to get back to 21 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: five and five is an absolute must. You were probably 22 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: pulling for green Bay last night if you're a Cowboy fan, Yeah, 23 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: because you already took an l against seat if it 24 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 1: gets down to head to head. But look, I think 25 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: we've talked about it. You got to take care of 26 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: business and vision. That's the best. You gotta go win, 27 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: gotta go win. But your best chance is to catch Washington. Yeah, 28 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: and stop, don't think about wildcard and all that kind 29 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: of stuff. Just go win your division. And it's it's 30 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: still possible, believe it or not. You can catch Washington 31 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: in six days. Yeah, you could. By Thursday night, Thanks 32 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: living night, Cowboys could be in first place.

Where where does he see a falcon? He 46 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: went to the Auburn game or is that a war 47 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: war eagle? On a kayak trip around the Channel Islands? Okay, 48 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 1: in California, you know outside of Oxnard and Vina the 49 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: Channel Islands out there. How did you know it was 50 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 1: a falcon? The tour guides and I saw it, Mickey, 51 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: back to nature, guy, the fastest bird on the universe? 52 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: Is it really? Yes, on the universe? Yes. You didn't 53 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: know that, did you? No? I didn't know. Just the phrazy. 54 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: I didn't know you could go to the kayaking trips 55 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: while we're a training camp. I didn't. I went on 56 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: vacation there before training camps. Oh, these are pretty busy days, 57 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: you know, shoot a couple of Ford spots and go kayaking, 58 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: and that's what we're gonna do. And I saw the 59 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: fastest whale too, Or did you on the same day 60 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: maybe there needs to be an NFL team called the Whales. 61 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: That's right, she go Las Vegas Whales. Go hang out 62 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: with the cheetahs. Maybe see the fastest land animal. I 63 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: think we saw. No, there was nothing. I saw a 64 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: red fire. He was a good actor back in the 65 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: day media Granford and Son. Hell, yeah, you ever see 66 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: a wild red fox? I've seen Sanford and Son. That's right. 67 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: He was pretty wild. No, I've never seen a wild 68 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: It was a triple hitter there. It was. It was 69 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: like more than just a fig my wild Kingdom or 70 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: something like that. Perkins hanging out. Something happened. You guys, 71 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:25,799 Speaker 1: ought to try it. It happened to be a really 72 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: cool kayak trip because it was getting out of the 73 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: caves on the Channel Island. See to try that sometime, 74 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: Bat mccave. Maybe Jason Jason Garrett could take the team 75 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: on a field trip at training camp. That's right, instead 76 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: of just going to the beat, try, you know, do 77 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: something Yeah wild Okay, mickey, Um, we got to talk. 78 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: Maybe we needed someone else to do an injury report? Yeah, 79 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: how was at practice yesterday? Practice was better from an 80 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: injury standpoint, largely unchanged because you still got from Wednesday, 81 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: because you still had six guys sitting out, a lot 82 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 1: of defensive linemen, but you did have two starting offensive 83 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: lineman Tyrant Smith and Zach Martin back to practice on 84 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 1: a limited basis, and I believe MALIEK. Collins was limited 85 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: as well, so that you would think helps your numbers 86 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: a little bit on the d line heading into Sunday, 87 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: very good. I'm not surprising on the offensive lineman getting 88 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: back out there, No, I mean, unless you gotta have them, 89 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: unless Tyrants back, you know. Yeah, and that was the 90 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: concern again, Yeah, that you know, when he wakes up 91 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: with back spasms, that's always a concern. You never know 92 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: when that's going to happen. That's the thing about dealing 93 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: with those. And so you know, it flared up during 94 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: the week instead of the weekend, which you know you 95 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: have to feel like it's a you know, maybe a 96 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: dodge a bullet. But if it's starting to reoccur a 97 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: little bit, I worry about that after last year. Yeah, 98 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: just put a board in his back and send him 99 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: out there and let him stand there. Does he do 100 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: yoga during the season two or is it just an 101 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: offseason thing? I think I don't know. The answer to 102 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: that question, I know that he was really adamant about it. 103 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 1: During the off season, you know, he and Lyle Collins 104 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: were both going to California and then they got the uh, 105 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: the lady that was involved it was coming out in Oxnard. 106 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: So I didn't you do a story about her? Yes, okay, 107 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: she would not do an interview though. Yeah, she wouldn't 108 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: do anything difficult to do it stop you from doing 109 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: a story story anyway. Yeah, but no, I don't think that, 110 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know that for sure. I'm sure 111 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: that he does has stretching routines and stuff that he 112 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 1: does here. But yeah, he was. He was adamant that 113 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: that that lady helped him quite a bit with his 114 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: with his core flexibility. So we'll see, let's get to 115 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: the bad news on the injuries. Yeah, you want to 116 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: get your umpire thumb ready, all right, Shawn Lee, Tavon, 117 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: Austin Taco Charlton, David Irving, David Irving, Daniel Ross calling out, Yeah, 118 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: Antoine Woods, I think he's got a chance. Yeah, that's 119 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: the one you need to keep an eye worked. He 120 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: worked pretty hard on his own outside doing conditioning work, 121 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: and my understanding was he was heading to the doctor 122 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: to have it checked the concussion protocols. So so you 123 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: do the heavy work and then go check to see 124 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: if you have any symptoms. Is that kind of how 125 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: that works? There's any residual effects from the work, and 126 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: we should probably get a little clearer picture. But with that, 127 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: I mean you can take it right up to game time. 128 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: I mean they can check you on Saturday. Yeah, so 129 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: the neal is though, you got to get cleared. Yeah, 130 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: but the problem they're running into is though to go 131 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: all the way up to game time, do they have 132 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: to activate Christian Ringo, you know, because they're gonna need 133 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: with all the guys. You guys just set are out, 134 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: David Irving out most likely, Yeah, ross out. You know. 135 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,119 Speaker 1: I mean you got to cut somebody, That's what I'm saying. 136 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: I mean, how do you You can't go up to 137 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: game time with o'clock Saturday, three o'clock Saturday. So if 138 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: they're they're going to have to make a determination on 139 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: him today or tomorrow by the time they get on 140 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: that airplane to go to a go to Atlanta or 141 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: you guys get on the plan to go to Atlanta. 142 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: But yeah, I that's that, that's you know, if the 143 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: human law can't go, that's that's tough. Now, the Falcons 144 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: don't really want to run the football. They really don't. 145 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: They're not interested. They'll do it on second down, but 146 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: they're you know, you you need his presence. And I 147 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: you know, having read and and Ringo, I mean we 148 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: know nothing about Ringo, Christian Ringo, I mean I he's 149 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: a practice squad guy. Sixty eight right, Yeah, so you 150 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: know you're getting in, You're start talking about Okay, now 151 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,719 Speaker 1: you're trying to go win a you know, win a 152 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: game like I always call a must win game to 153 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: kind of keep your season going kind of the right 154 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: way that you're you're using Christian Ringo as you know, 155 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: one of your rotational defensive tackles. And I understand that, 156 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 1: you know, your practice squad, you got to use those 157 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: guys sometimes. And I look with Sue Philo didn't went 158 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: on the practice squad, but he came from really just 159 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: being inactive every week and played it played very well. 160 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,679 Speaker 1: It's going to start for you this week.

The one that practiced yesterday that I 168 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 1: heard was Joe Thomas. He's been back this week, the linebacker. Yeah, 169 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: Joe Thomas is. So you have to see if Joe 170 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: Thomas might be on that inactive list, you know, do 171 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: they They've been working Covington in that group, and maybe 172 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: they feel good enough about Covington going forward, but you know, 173 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: Joe Thomas would be a nice edition back. Speaking of linebackers, 174 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: Atlanta gets back Dion Jones. That's going to help them 175 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: get back for them. Yeah, there's a team that gives 176 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 1: up a bunch of yards per play early downs, like 177 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: six point nine a play. Imagine now first down giving 178 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: up that that plays right into Dallas's hands. If they 179 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: can find a way to win on early day sounds, 180 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: keep them ahead of the chains. What's the biggest problem 181 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: they have when they get behind the Chaine right, no 182 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: question about it. And their biggest problem of late has 183 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: been run defense. Yeah, two hundred and eleven yards Cleveland. Now, 184 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: I know they got ninety two on what they did. 185 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: Run they did, but it's true. You're right, They're right. 186 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 1: That's Cleveland ran for two hundred and eleven yards. And 187 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 1: I was reading about how the uh all all the 188 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator has been saying all week is ezekiel, ezekiel, ezekiel. 189 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,359 Speaker 1: They have to be go ahead, yeah, you know, concentrate 190 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 1: on them and you want to go one on one 191 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: with the receivers. That's a big problem for them too, 192 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: because their cornerbacks aren't real good. Nope, that is that 193 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: is the truth thirtieth in past defense. Yeah, that's that's 194 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: that element we haven't really talked about this year. Is 195 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 1: the whole picture poison type thing? Right? Well, I like, yeah, 196 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 1: like Amari Cooper is gonna win, He's gonna win. On 197 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 1: the outside, I feel good about Cole Beasley. You got 198 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup coming on going home all the way yeah, school, 199 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: I think fifty miles from Atlanta something like that, got 200 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: to play in the big House. Yeah. So yeah, I 201 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: mean it's we'll see if the Cowboys can carry over 202 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: this momentum, you know, And I think it starts up front. 203 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: We talked about Connor william Sue Philo was productive at 204 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: left guard, so maybe they found something there if indeed 205 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: he sticks in the lineup. That's the way it seems 206 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 1: to be looking so far. Yeah, you know, you look 207 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 1: at the Falcons and one of the big reasons they've 208 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 1: had issues in their secondary is the loss of key 209 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: On O'Neil, their safety. Big time player. Yeah, big time player. 210 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what though, this uh Demante Kaze 211 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: his five picks, Yeah, has played well. Now you know 212 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: his a couple of his picks. The pick he had 213 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 1: last week against the uh the Browns was a throwback. 214 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: They tried to throw the ball back to Baker Mayfield 215 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: and it was a wounded pass. But he's been if 216 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: you're not gonna pick off Baker Mayfield, yeah, no of course, 217 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: but now maybe you're gonna cover Baker Mayfield because they 218 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: covered him well on that playure But yeah, I I 219 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: you know, you just yeah, they've struggled, you know, Trufont 220 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 1: has struggled, and Alfred I think that if you watch 221 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 1: this game, keep an eye on number twenty three for 222 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: the Falcons because he cannot cover, and he cannot cover. 223 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: He proved he can't. You know, you look at Michael Thomas. 224 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: You watch that game against the Saints. Michael Thomas at 225 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: ten targets, ten catches. A lot of them were against him. 226 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: You know, you go back and watch a j Green play. 227 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: You know he can't handle a receiver that's a really 228 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: good route runner and a finisher. So you know, if 229 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 1: Dallas miss is an opportunity to get Cooper, this could 230 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 1: be a big game for Cooper. If you want Bill 231 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: your click, pick the click guy, keep Amari Cooper in 232 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: mind if you're thinking about a guy, because he's got 233 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: a shot. If they match him up against this guy, 234 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 1: they've got a shot to make some plays. Now that's 235 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: that getting Himo football. We'll see Baker Mayfield's throw seven interception. 236 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: I know, I know, I'm just teasing to six touchdowns. 237 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: Oh that's not good, but well he was really bad 238 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: did before last week because he had three touchdown pass 239 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: is a dope PI. That's a rookie quarterback for you. 240 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: I said it earlier in the week though. This is 241 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: where the Falcons have struggled. Though. I think I think 242 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: it's six straight games where they've had given up three 243 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns. Wow. I mean, if you could go in 244 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: the game and say, oh, Dak Prescott's gonna have three 245 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns. Yeah, man, gosh, we're doing cartwheels up until 246 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: it's a big The better chance Dak Prescott has three 247 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns or Dak Prescott gets sacked eight times Sunday, 248 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: I think it's the I think it's the passing touchdowns, 249 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: right for sure. Yeah, I don't see I don't see 250 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: Atlanta really rushing the pass for all that well, and 251 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: you know and watched me. It's gonna come back and 252 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 1: haunt me for saying that. But I don't you know, 253 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 1: I don't see them. I don't see Vic Beasley having 254 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 1: the type of season they expected him to have. I 255 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: don't see you know, uh McKinley having the you know, 256 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: they drafted McKinley in the first round. I mean he's 257 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: had a very similar I think people would say, okay 258 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: him or and now the Cowboys were saying him or Taco, 259 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, they they they've they've expected a 260 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: lot more from that guy, and they just haven't got 261 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 1: it in the way. You mean, what seventeen seventeen sacks 262 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: for the season. Hella had eight against your last year 263 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: in this game, right right, I don't see that happening again. 264 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. If it does, don't lose the game, 265 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: and I'll be real wrong about it. I don't know 266 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: if we'll ever see anything quite like that again, because 267 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: I don't I don't think they would allow that to 268 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: continue happening as long as it did. I saw Levin 269 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: twice and then before that San Diego. Yeah, but against 270 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: Polura or something like that. But I'm talking about from 271 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: this pretty much the same guy, the same guy, you know. 272 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: And they got into halftime and they thought they could 273 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: kind of settle it down and correct it, and they 274 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: didn't make an adjustment. And the coaches have admitted that's 275 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: on us and with Chatz, and part of that probably 276 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: was it was a ten seven game at the half, 277 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: you know, and so you get a false sense of 278 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: it was false sense of security. Yeah, it was seventeen 279 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: seven going to the fourth quarter. That was something else. 280 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: You couldn't do anything offensively though on the first session 281 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: it didn't score again. Now, yeah, Mickey's right. If you 282 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: get if you get Julio Jones with six catches and 283 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: fifty some odd yards, big time, sign me up. But 284 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: just don't let some of these other guys hurt me 285 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: as well. Though. You know Dak's quarterback rating, he's better 286 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: than Alex Smith, Dalton, Mariota, Mayfield, Bortles Flacco, what is 287 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: his rating? Ninety point eight and Eli Manning's ninety two seven, 288 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: So he's not that far if it's getting better, let's 289 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: put it that way. Yeah, I think, and this is 290 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: an opportunity if you Yes, I'm with Mickey though. I'm 291 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: with Mickey on running the football and this thing. Maybe though, 292 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: this would be Atlanta's plan to stop your run if 293 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: they can, if they can, and see if Dak Prescott 294 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: can be accurate enough throwing the football. If you were 295 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: if you were Atlanta, if you were if you were 296 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: their defensive coordinator, if you were Marquel Manual, I think 297 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: it Markquell Manual. I think it's how you say his 298 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: first name, if you were to him, how would you 299 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: how would you attack Dallas offensively or defensively? What plan 300 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: would you go with? Well, I mean, based on what 301 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: we've seen from other teams, it's exactly what you said. 302 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: I mean, they'd load up, they try to stop Zeke 303 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: and say beat us in the passing game. But that's 304 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: also Priyamari Cooper. You know, I mean, this is a 305 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: g like you just said, this is a guy that's 306 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: gonna win his routes unless they just say, Okay, we're 307 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: gonna take you away and just double him all game. 308 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: But you can't do everything. That's what I'm saying. It 309 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: is kind of somebody else. It is kind of that 310 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: pick your poison thing now that Dallas is trying to create. Here, 311 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: you look an extra guy in the box and double Cooper. Yeah, 312 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: you start running out of guys. No, they'll they'll have 313 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: a problem with that unless twelfth man shows up. Do 314 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 1: you make them beat you throwing the football or do 315 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: you just hope your offense just scores so many points 316 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: that you it doesn't matter. I think that may be 317 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: the determining factor as the game goes along. Yeah, because 318 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: if they're scoring, yeah, then you and you're not and 319 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: you're you're struggling. Yeah, you're scuffling along there and you're 320 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 1: not scoring. But if you're not scoring, see, that takes 321 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: you out of the running game. And maybe they feel 322 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 1: like that they could beat the Cowboys. They could beat 323 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, making Dak Prescott have to throw the ball 324 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: all game, even though they're very poor in the secondary. 325 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: You know, that might be their their best weapon. Their 326 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 1: best weapon might be their offense is ability to just 327 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: to score well. And that's if you go and you'll 328 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 1: know that very early in this game. How that's gonna 329 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: go sixty two fifty, that's Mickey score. The Tennessee game 330 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 1: was kind of like that. You know, I think Zeke 331 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: had seventeen touches or carries and he just didn't have 332 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: an opportunity in the second half because they couldn't stop 333 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: Tennessee's offense. And so yeah, running of the football just 334 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: becomes useless. Yeah, or just killing the clock for him, 335 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 1: you can't do it. That's why it's going to be 336 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: imperative that they don't squander scoring opportunity kids early in 337 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: the game like they've done in the fort these last 338 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 1: two games, no questions. The twenty eight they scored or 339 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: twenty seven against Philadelphia, it could have been thirty five 340 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 1: easily easily could have been that. That game could have 341 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: been just a walk, you know, and maybe we're spoiled 342 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: ye like Bailey, you just can't miss makable field goals. 343 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: Falcons are a different type team than really the Cowboys 344 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: have faced all year at home well and and in defensively, 345 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 1: offensively with their passing offense, and I think maybe, even 346 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: though I agree with you on their secondary, in their 347 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: past defense, maybe some of those defensive stats are skewed 348 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: a little bit because teams get in a game, they 349 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: have to catch, have to throw the ball, and they 350 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: have you know, and so u So from that standpoint, 351 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,400 Speaker 1: what concern would concern me if I'm a Falcon fan 352 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 1: more so is that their twenty first in the league 353 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: and run defense. Well, that's because a lot. But go back, seriously, 354 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 1: six point I think it's six point zero two carry, right, 355 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: you know, I mean that's bad. All right, that's bad. 356 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: I mean on first down. Yeah, that's what I'm saying, 357 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 1: because I would assume, Yeah, I don't know how many, 358 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: and I can look it up real quick. You tell 359 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: me I could get five point two yards to carry 360 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 1: every time I hand the ball off. I mean, that's yeah, 361 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: if you told me, If you told me that, I'd 362 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: say they win the game, because then Zeke's getting one 363 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty. Again, can you offensively keep this as 364 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: a low scoring game? They are twenty first in the 365 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,959 Speaker 1: league and run defense and they are just seventh in 366 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: the number of attempts. Yeah, okay, there you go. And 367 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: so that's telling you there teams are able to run 368 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 1: the ball against Yeah, absolutely, yeah, but you know what, 369 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: teams are limited when they don't. When they they run 370 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: the ball, they have success. But teams don't do it 371 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: nearly enough. See for on talking Falcons today they're doing 372 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: they're talking about they're worried about your running game. They're 373 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: worried about ezekielot loading up and then you get no 374 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: chance on offense. But you better finish those drives. And 375 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: Mickey's right, you better not be kicking field goals though too. 376 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: But you know what, on the games they've lost, it's 377 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 1: not like teams have had to just throw throw thro 378 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: row the team. The games they've lost, they've given up 379 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,959 Speaker 1: forty three, thirty seven, forty one, and twenty eight and 380 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: they won one game with twenty nine. So it's not like, 381 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: you know, they the other teams had to throw to 382 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: catch up because they were beating them so bad. So 383 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,120 Speaker 1: I just think their past defense and not very good. 384 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 1: Now you give up five point two yards a carry, 385 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: your defense is not very good. Now we're saying all 386 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: this and boy they happen on Sunday. We know what 387 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 1: it is, what it's like in this league, all right? 388 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: Eight eight eight eight five five two two nine seven 389 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: the number to call.

Sonny Dikes 456 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,199 Speaker 1: is doing a great job at SMU. They got two 457 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: games up here where they can win and maybe get 458 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 1: in a bowl game. Right, they can win their division 459 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: and play also left right, play for their conference. There 460 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 1: we go. They play tonight at home against Memphis, but 461 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: they would play Central Florida right well, and in the championship. Yeah, 462 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: but you're at least you're playing in it now. Tomorrow 463 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: night on ABC, UM Central Florida play Cincinnati. They're doing 464 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 1: a group of five prime time game. Tomorrow's not bad 465 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: like night and one. I think that shows how weak 466 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: the college football schedule is. Keep an eye on Cincinna. 467 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: Is that game played a nip? Stay? Do you think 468 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: SMU beat Cincinnati and so that's how SMU get into 469 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: the hunt. Yeah, so keep an eye on that. Uh. 470 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 1: North Tensas lost their quarterback though last night he broke 471 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: his hand. Oh I didn't realize that. And you know 472 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: how tall are you, Mickey five seven? He's I think 473 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: he's shorter than you are. Now he's not, I think 474 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: than but he's a he's a heck of a quarterback. 475 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: And so that's why he wound up not being heavily 476 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: recruited by other because he had that kind of talent 477 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: coming out. But he's he's like five six. He ran, 478 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 1: so the backup came in and immediately ran for two touchdowns. 479 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: I don't know what happened after that, like what the 480 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: final score was? All right, he had so played all 481 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: year long college football talk. You know, Dak Prescott when 482 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: he was at college last week he was talking about 483 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: the fact that he couldn't remember that he had ever 484 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: been what were the Cowboys last week? Three and five? Okay, 485 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 1: that he can't recall ever in his life being three 486 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: and five. So I did some research when he was ASSISIPI, 487 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: how wrong was he Misissippi State? He was not three 488 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: and five, And I'm doing this off the top of 489 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 1: my head. He was either two and four or four 490 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: and six. One year, got you. And then that was 491 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 1: the first year that he was a starting quarterback. Like 492 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: halfway through the season he was one or two games 493 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: under five hundred, and then he went on a in 494 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: Mississippi State went on a twelve game winning streak from 495 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: the try from the end of that season to the 496 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: mid season the following year, and became the number one 497 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: team in the country. Yeah, he didn't start that year though, 498 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: that they started three he took over. I think he had. 499 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 1: He had a good number of seats, like the last 500 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: six or seven game. I want to say he had 501 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: like ten starts that year. But still he was the 502 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 1: starter when they were at that point. And then he 503 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: took him on a So I did the math on 504 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: it last week. Another station looked it up and they 505 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: didn't find it until high school. Oh yeah, one year 506 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: in high school he was three and well, so I 507 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: looked up all right, he went on a twelve game 508 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: win streak. So if it happens again, and this was 509 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: last week, the Cowboys had eight games left in their 510 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: regular season, four playoff games. If he goes on a 511 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: twelve game winning streak, now that Cowboys will not only 512 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: be playing this Sunday in Atlanta, they will be playing 513 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: later this season in Atlanta in the Super Bowl. And 514 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: winning is Super Bowl there, So there you go. You're 515 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: telling me there's a chance. I'm telling you there's a chance. 516 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:30,119 Speaker 1: All right. I see how much money I got. Twelve 517 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: game winning He did it in college. Why can't he 518 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: do it in the NFL at an eleven game winning streak? Guinea, 519 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 1: that's right, he already Yeah, an eleven game win streak 520 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: is rookie years against him? Why are you all naysayer? 521 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: Twelve in a row, twelve straight? Can we start with two? Well, 522 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: you can't get to twelve unless you get point two. 523 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 1: So you can't get to Atlanta the second time, the 524 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: first Sunday in February on CBS with Tony Romo in 525 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: the booth calling the game. Then unless you can get 526 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,120 Speaker 1: this win on Sunday. Yeah, yeah, all right. They better 527 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: have a bunch of Citadels on the schedule. I don't 528 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 1: think the NFL has any Saints are a little better 529 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 1: than that. Yeah, you're already looking ahead. Skins are all yeah, yeah, no, 530 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: gimmis um All right, Where do you want to go? Brian? 531 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 1: You got a question? You got something? Do you want 532 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: a topic? You got a topic? No? I just you know, 533 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 1: I was just kind of thinking about though this this team, 534 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: and I don't have a topic. I'm just gonna try 535 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 1: and come up with one here. But I think that 536 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: do you feel better? You know, we talk about all 537 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: of Atlanta's problems on defense though, but after what you 538 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 1: saw in Philadelphia, do you feel a lot better about 539 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: this offense? Or is it still kind of a work 540 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: in progress in your mind? I know we're ten games 541 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: into this thing, but we are nine games into this, 542 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: but are we Do we feel better about it or 543 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: do we How do we feel about this? I feel 544 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: better about it, but I need to kind of see 545 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: it again, because you know, I've kept talking on Monday 546 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: about that drive before the half that was really impressive. 547 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: They went seventy three yards in like four or five 548 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 1: plays and scored a touchdown before that. It was very 549 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: similar to the problems they've had in the past. Especially 550 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: on the road. So I think they're in a better place. 551 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: I expect Amari Cooper to continue being a featured part 552 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: of this offense, and I think his rapport will Dak 553 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: will get better. But we need to see it more 554 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 1: than a half, you know, where they're really trading scores 555 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: and being efficient up and down the football field. We 556 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: just haven't seen that with consistency this year. But there's 557 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: encouraging and that line is encouraging as well. What do 558 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: you think, No, I'm I'm I'm with you. I you know, 559 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: I'm I'm encouraged. The thing that, you know, the offense 560 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: doesn't worry me in this game. It's the defense that 561 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: worries me. And I know that's funny to say, considering 562 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: how well they played, But I've just that we've seen 563 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: some signs though of you know, some some big plays 564 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: being made, some passing plays being made. Not enough you know, 565 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: pressure enough sacks? I mean what we they're not enough 566 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: pressure in sacks I think is a concern. Yeah, because 567 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 1: if you don't get to this guy, then they're gonna 568 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: rip you. Yeah, there'll be a problem. See, I've thought 569 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: all all season, I was looking ahead to this stretch, 570 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 1: not only Atlanta, but also New Orleans in a couple 571 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: of weeks where now we're going to really find out 572 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: about this Dallas defense because and part of that had 573 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: to do with the Cowboys offense was not productive the 574 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: first half of the year. Now, to answer your question, 575 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,239 Speaker 1: I feel better about this Cowboys offense that they can 576 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 1: score some points. They could play in a shootout then 577 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: hunt that I don't, and that's what we may find. 578 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,719 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe maybe I got a little over fell us 579 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: there with the shootout now, but that's what's gonna be. 580 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: I mean, they weren't going to be able to if 581 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: they've had visions of contending to make the playoffs the 582 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: way it was going two weeks ago, it was not 583 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: gonna happen with what they had weapon wise, as the 584 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: defense held you in there long enough. And again the record, 585 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: it is to get offense to catch up. Yes, the 586 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: best going to ask for the most part. Yes, we're 587 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 1: gonna find out Sunday, if they can do this two 588 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: weeks in a row, because they should have had more 589 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,719 Speaker 1: points against Tennessee, right right, Yeah, a couple of bad plays, 590 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: but they were moving the football points against Philadelphia. Yeah, No, 591 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: Nicky said that he's absolutely right. And you know, and 592 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: and just take last night for example. I don't know 593 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: how many times Aaron Rodgers ended up getting sacked, but 594 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: it was close to half a dozen. Yeah. You want 595 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 1: to know why they lost, right? They missed a field goal? Yeah, 596 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 1: I understand that. No, I just said the problem was 597 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: the quarterback was you know, honest, But you can't win 598 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: that way. And and right now, you know, there's only 599 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: one team that's given up more sacks than the Cowboys Giants. 600 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 1: Oh no, they're tied with the Giants, are they really? 601 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: That's never good? Um? And and look, Cleveland, not every 602 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 1: sack on Dak is on the line. I mean Dak 603 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: sometimes I think there's been times where he'll tell you 604 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: he's maybe he needs to get rid of it, you know, 605 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: but better job in this last game offensively upfront? But 606 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: why is he holding on too it because there's probably 607 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: no one open. Thirty two sacks, the Giants thirty two sacks, 608 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: Cleveland thirty five. That's no way to win ball games. No, 609 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: but we feel better about the offense, right, I think, 610 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 1: But he gave up We're not making that up, are we. 611 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: But they gave up four sacks last week now a 612 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: couple he ran out of I think he ran. Yeah, No, 613 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: he's gotta throw the ball. He don't, don't run. Don't 614 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: be foolish, Yeah, don't be foolish that way. So how 615 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: many times has Aaron Rodgers been sacked this year? Well, 616 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 1: I didn't see what last night was he had. He 617 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: was sacked five times last night, so he's at thirty 618 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: two sacks. Now we're gonna look back on Aaron Rodgers' 619 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: career and say he didn't have enough help. One of 620 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 1: the greatest we've ever seen. But just did happening? Did 621 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: you guys watch the game last night? Did not a 622 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: little bit, very little, very little. If he dropped back 623 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: the pass, the rush was coming, he stepped up and 624 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 1: it was like punt pass and kicked. He just threw 625 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: the ball as high and as far as he could 626 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: before he got smashed. And I think it was Adams. 627 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: Adams ran it down, runs underneath it and catches it 628 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: as the dB stumbling like he had jumped like Ezekiel Elliott, 629 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: and it's like, how does that happen? A great quarterback? 630 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: And I mean it was a true hail Mary. You 631 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: know how they do the tour here and they say, 632 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: how did how did Roger Staubach complete that pass? He 633 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: dropped back, closed his eyes and seat of hell Mary 634 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: and threw it. No, that's not quite the way it happened. 635 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: But on that pass, I think that's what Rodgers did. 636 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: Nobody's thrown the hell Mary better in the history of 637 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 1: the league than Aaron Rodgers, other than the guy who 638 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: invented it. By the way, he's getting his Medal of 639 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: Freedom today, right Roger today, I think it's today. Yeah, 640 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: those the reports. Anyway, with Babe Ruth he is, Yes, 641 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna be there. I think he's 642 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: got the candy bar Babes could be a little late 643 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: today tracking himself up over here this wait, you can 644 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 1: go ahead, babe. Babe Babe will be here a little later. 645 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: We can mail his to him. I think there was 646 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,760 Speaker 1: somebody else that there is another athlete I can't remember. 647 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: Former Vikings defensive lineman Al Y. Yes, Alan Page, the 648 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:44,919 Speaker 1: great Alan Page. The people people Eaders very good, Yeah, 649 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: and so great honor of a Rogers, absolutely absolutely due. 650 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: They stands beyond what he did on the football. They 651 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: have a ceremony like they show up for. That's what 652 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 1: I read. Okay, it was supposed to be there. Washing 653 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: do this, don't you puts it around your neck and 654 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 1: all that stuff. I think so, I think so. And 655 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 1: now that you mentioned Roger Stabock, let me take you 656 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 1: back to nineteen seventy one when the Cowboys did the 657 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 1: quarterback shuffle him and Craig Morton. He and Craig Morton 658 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 1: Chicagy three to nineteen loss that Soldier Field in Chicago, 659 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 1: and then Tom Landry decided that Stabok would be the 660 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: start of the rest of the year. And what the 661 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 1: Cowboys do the rest of the year, they won them all. 662 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,800 Speaker 1: They want them all, ten straight wins to get to 663 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. And so the point the reason I 664 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: bring that up, so if it gets back, you know, 665 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: it gets back to not to Dak Prescott wedding, twelve 666 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 1: straight win of the Super Bowl, but the importance in 667 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: the second half of the year of getting on a roll. 668 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,359 Speaker 1: And this is the time of the year right now 669 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: that if the Cowboy you know, they have this dream 670 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 1: that even with the reshuffling of the roster and all 671 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: that stuff, rebuilding whatever however you want to phrase it, 672 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 1: that they could still contend this year. Well, it's all 673 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: built for this right now, and they've got their destiny 674 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: in their hands right now, going into Atlanta this week 675 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 1: and then Washington and so forth, with what's happening in 676 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 1: this division. If they can get on a roll right 677 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: now now, my question is can they can they We're 678 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,360 Speaker 1: gonna find out. No, you gotta give an answer here, 679 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: you gotta try and give an answer. I offensively, I 680 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,359 Speaker 1: feel better about this. And I'm not saying super Bowl. 681 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: I'm saying to get to the play how about to 682 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 1: win the division? Yeah? Right, yes, I feel better about 683 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: their opportunities with the addition of Amari Cooper and the 684 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:36,280 Speaker 1: change at the offensive line, coach, and I just hope, 685 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: I hope that we see a similar game plan. I 686 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 1: hope we see a similar more similar aggressiveness with the 687 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: way that things are working. And you know, and I 688 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: know the defense. They've they've leaned on this defense all year. 689 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 1: Now it's time for the offense in the second half 690 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 1: to pick things there. You're gonna be in some games. 691 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 1: You're gonna be in some games, and Bill, you said it. 692 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 1: You're gonna be in some games. You can outscore Washington. 693 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 1: Washington's proven to me that they can't score points. They can't. 694 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 1: But they're but they're playing a great recipe of football, 695 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 1: run and play defense. That's what they you know, that's 696 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: how you have to play. But now it's time for 697 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 1: Dallas to take advantage of adding Amari Cooper and some 698 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 1: of these receivers stepping up, Michael Gallup stepping up, you know, 699 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: the offensive lineup. I love the addition of Mark Colombo 700 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 1: as the offensive line coach. I think it brings a 701 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: toughness to that group. And maybe you found something with 702 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: Sue Philo here playing the guard. So I'm gonna and 703 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: Ezekiel at nice taste in his mouth after last week, 704 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: you know, get him going again, get him going where 705 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,880 Speaker 1: it's every week it's like, oh damn, we have to 706 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: deal with that. If you're an opponent, you know, let's 707 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 1: not be this back and forth, back and forth, back 708 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: and forth. Well you're not out there alone. Because it 709 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 1: was pointed out to me that Troy Aikman, after setting 710 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 1: the place on fire a week ago, basically picked him 711 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 1: to win the division this week. Well, I mean it 712 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,080 Speaker 1: is Bill's right, it's possible. Look, I don't know to 713 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:01,800 Speaker 1: make of that. By the way, that's kind of a 714 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 1: one eighties I really, I really don't know, you know, 715 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:09,720 Speaker 1: and I scrapped the whole organization structure. I love Troy Aikman, 716 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: I really don't. I didn't hear it, but I was 717 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 1: told that's what he I respect the hell out of him. 718 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: I think he does a great job. But I'm I'm 719 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,919 Speaker 1: kind of one of those guys. It's like, my friend, 720 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 1: you had a can of gas in your hand, and 721 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: now you're driving the fire truck to the scene, you know. 722 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: And you know, it's an example though, of this league 723 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: and how week the week it's it's such a week 724 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: to week and it seemed like after that eight hours 725 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 1: to forty eight hours, I know. I mean, okay, keep 726 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: in mind that was a Monday night game Tennessee. He 727 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,760 Speaker 1: does his radio hit on Tuesday morning. Yeah. Troy Aikman, 728 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,319 Speaker 1: in many ways is just like the rest of us 729 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,360 Speaker 1: on the on the heels of a game like that 730 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: where the team just did not show up in the 731 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: second half of that game. You're sitting there going, this 732 00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 1: whole organization needs to be bootless. You know. That was interesting. 733 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: Then you turn around on Sunday night at Philadelphia and 734 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: you win, and and then you look at what else 735 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 1: is going on in the division and wait a second, 736 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 1: because they can be in first place by Thanksgiving night. 737 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: He's right, like Philly plays, But I would respected him 738 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 1: if he wouldn't have gone for the flip right right, Well, 739 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 1: I mean I don't think. I don't think you could 740 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 1: be that extreme. But his most recent point is right. 741 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 1: I mean, there's no question. But you know if that 742 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,759 Speaker 1: was his original point, hey, no, which even after how 743 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: bad Dallas played on Monday night, and he would have 744 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: come out and said, Noah, Dallas can still win the division. 745 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: Maybe he's maybe he believes both things, you know, like 746 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: this is a bad division. They may go win this division. 747 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 1: But I think that's why you went and got that receiver. Yeah, 748 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,880 Speaker 1: it is why, Which is why as a coaching staff 749 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,319 Speaker 1: and his players whatever, you got to keep your wits 750 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,640 Speaker 1: about you as you go along through this thing because 751 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: there's more division games, there's valleys, there's you know, mountains, 752 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 1: and you know it's a roller coaster Philly, or it 753 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,400 Speaker 1: can be you try to limit the roller coaster you 754 00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 1: want to, you know, just be on a upward a cent. 755 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: Philly plays the Saints, Yes, Houston's at Washington. Giants have 756 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,720 Speaker 1: got Tampa. I think at home, big game in Atlanta. 757 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 1: You can all of a sudden, yeah, you can drop 758 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: some major ground and then play with division leaders on Thanksgiving, 759 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: regardless of what happened obvious here today. I know it's 760 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 1: every They're all must win. I get no, no, no, 761 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:21,920 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to I wasn't getting on you about that, 762 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: but yeah, it must win. I mean I said it 763 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: in my with my captain obvious grin on my face. 764 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,879 Speaker 1: It is a huge game. Absolutely, it's a huge game. 765 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 1: Lose this game over No, but it's the odds decrease 766 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: significantly plus it plus it pokes the air out of 767 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 1: the balloon that you just blew up last week. You know, 768 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 1: are we are? We do for a letdown? Then? After 769 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,799 Speaker 1: being so feeling so good about this football team all week? 770 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 1: What did you say last week? That's why you have 771 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 1: to be playing consistently? Yeah, Brian, why did you pick 772 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys last week? Because I was desperate and Mickey 773 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 1: and I won an award for fighting about that on 774 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: the Happy Hour Show. But see, there's my point. You 775 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:05,839 Speaker 1: can't be emotionally up and down and up and down 776 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 1: and oh my back's halfway through the wall. Now I 777 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,479 Speaker 1: gotta play harder. You gotta play hard every week. Yeah, 778 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 1: and you can't. That's what I was trying. You weren't 779 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:18,880 Speaker 1: listening to me. You gotta be If my point was 780 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 1: you have to emotionally, you have no no to me 781 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 1: that you have to play consistently. You know to me, 782 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,879 Speaker 1: he's not wrong, he's not wrong. But I also understand though, 783 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,360 Speaker 1: that you have to have you have to have that 784 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,400 Speaker 1: in your mind. Now I think maybe what I misunderstood 785 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: you you were saying more mickey that night, was more 786 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,840 Speaker 1: about you can't give that same speech, right right, you 787 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 1: can't come in the lock But I'm and say, Okay, 788 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 1: we gotta go. We don't win this game, and then 789 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,919 Speaker 1: you win in the next week, you come in and go, oh, 790 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:50,479 Speaker 1: we gotta win this game. Because I think you can't 791 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: do that. I think the players have to have that 792 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,359 Speaker 1: feeling in them though, Well they should have it every 793 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: week when you're zero and zero, well they're four and five. 794 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: Well if they're almost zero and zero. If they don't, 795 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 1: if they don't feel that this week, then shame on them. 796 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 1: But their their season is clearly on the line. But 797 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 1: you know what, if you go in that locker room, 798 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 1: that's what they were saying, we're focusing on Atlanta. Last 799 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: week doesn't matter, you know, Yeah, and Zeke said it, 800 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 1: our backs are still against the wall, and they are 801 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 1: and it will be Thanksgiving if they win Sunday, and 802 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 1: they will be the following week. Yeah, until they're playing 803 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: in Atlanta and the super Bowl the first Sunday. And 804 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: I mean last week their backs were halfway through the drywall. Yeah, 805 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 1: all right, we'll wait for a break now, Yeah, all right, 806 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,879 Speaker 1: and we're gonna find out in a moment. We're gonna 807 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 1: find out in a moment if we can come to 808 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 1: an agreement on what the Cowboys are gonna do in 809 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 1: Atlanta on Sunday. If you're like me and you love 810 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 1: I mean, if you have a thing, then cutting the 811 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: court it's scary.

I 890 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:13,280 Speaker 1: think that's because it's sports cast time on CBS eleven 891 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 1: at six twenty two, so they'll blow us out. We 892 00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: won't have a sportscast.

UM. Question I have for you brought us 921 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:49,319 Speaker 1: and I asked the other shows us um earlier this week. 922 00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 1: Sometimes I saw her and watching the All twenty two 923 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:56,320 Speaker 1: for the Philly game. Is I'm noticing and correct me 924 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,880 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong, but I'm noticing these receivers aren't very 925 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,200 Speaker 1: good at on the scrambled drill when Dak's outside the 926 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:05,800 Speaker 1: pocket and looking for somebody to throw too under duress. 927 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 1: I don't see these receivers coming off their routes trying 928 00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 1: to come back for the ball. Is that something you're 929 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 1: seeing a trend of or something that you feel like 930 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:16,520 Speaker 1: we can get better at? They should, They have to 931 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,959 Speaker 1: get better at that. There's no question, you know, there's 932 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:21,919 Speaker 1: and you know, even watching the TV copy last week, 933 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,359 Speaker 1: you know when during the game there were a couple 934 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:26,759 Speaker 1: of times where Dak was scrambling around and they you know, 935 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 1: they were struggling to try and find some space. That 936 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 1: was the one thing that you know, you talk about 937 00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,279 Speaker 1: a bunch of things that Terrence Williams couldn't do. That 938 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 1: was one of the things he was pretty good at 939 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:39,320 Speaker 1: it was finding that space. So yeah, it's it's always 940 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,000 Speaker 1: something that you can improve. There's this team that the 941 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 1: team that they're going to play this week in the Falcons. 942 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 1: I think it one of the best that I've seen 943 00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:48,440 Speaker 1: when it comes to Matt Ryan starts running with the 944 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:50,719 Speaker 1: football and then those guys go and find space. So 945 00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:53,840 Speaker 1: obviously it's a it's a it's a something that that 946 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,200 Speaker 1: was gonna have to worry about defensively and when it 947 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 1: happens to him offensively. They've got to get better. You know, 948 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 1: you got to get better. You gotta fin on space. 949 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:02,359 Speaker 1: You got to try and help your quarterback your best 950 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 1: you can. You know. It's funny he brought that up 951 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,320 Speaker 1: because they had a touchdown on that the one the 952 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:12,359 Speaker 1: ball came out of his hands. Cooper was coming up, Yeah, 953 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 1: and he turned around and went back and he had 954 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,200 Speaker 1: about a three or four yard lead and he's got 955 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:19,120 Speaker 1: his hand up like throwing. Is that when they blew 956 00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 1: out the guy's knee. Is that when they blew out 957 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 1: the Darby Darby's knee? Maybe maybe because because he was 958 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 1: covering up right and Dak's rolling to his right and 959 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 1: he's getting ready to load up and throw and the 960 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:36,319 Speaker 1: ball comes out of his hand and then he picked 961 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:40,160 Speaker 1: it up on one bounce and right. But but he 962 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 1: was and he talked about darsterday. He talked about it 963 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:46,360 Speaker 1: yesterday and he goes, oh, yeah, we had a touchdown. 964 00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 1: He goes, you know, he goes, for whatever reason, I 965 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:52,200 Speaker 1: don't know if my hand was wet, what the deal was, 966 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,560 Speaker 1: but the ball just kind of squeezed right out of 967 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 1: my hand. I suggested he'd take a little air out 968 00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 1: of the ball and be able to hold it better. 969 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:04,080 Speaker 1: Brady tactic. But but Cooper did it. Whatever the guy Cooper, 970 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 1: Cooper did it. That's that's again the difference maker. You say, 971 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 1: But you know, you look overall, maybe some of these 972 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 1: things where he was scrambling around instead of getting sacked 973 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 1: or pulled down or whatever. He you know, they could 974 00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:16,719 Speaker 1: have done a little bit better for a month. That's 975 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,440 Speaker 1: something you can always improve on. Yeah, that's just something 976 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,479 Speaker 1: that's that's as Jason Garrett like to say, time on task. 977 00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 1: And that was one of the things Witten was really 978 00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:27,720 Speaker 1: good at two. Yeah, not that he was making big plays, 979 00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 1: but he where to go the touchdown. I don't know 980 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,240 Speaker 1: we're going back two years, but the overtime went against 981 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 1: the Eagles. Here, uh dac through. I mean that was 982 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:41,080 Speaker 1: just a scrambled play Romo balls on the ground. W yeah, yeah, 983 00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:42,640 Speaker 1: Whindn just kind of sat down in the end zone 984 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 1: found a spot. Yeah, you know, yeah, you gotta be 985 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:46,280 Speaker 1: able to do that more consistently. You know. The funny 986 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,440 Speaker 1: thing about that play that you're talking about Darby. I 987 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 1: don't know what I was looking for, but somebody put 988 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:56,920 Speaker 1: on YouTube with the title Here's how the Cowboys toward 989 00:51:57,080 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 1: Darby's knee, and I was like, what do they talking about? 990 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:03,400 Speaker 1: And they showed them. It wasn't It wasn't like they 991 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 1: did anything. It's like he was just coming up and 992 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 1: he turned around and went the other way when he pivoted. Yeah, 993 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 1: he's just saying. They're probably saying he probably saying the 994 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 1: way that that I know, But it's like the good 995 00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:16,759 Speaker 1: thing he's not a headline, right exactly exactly whoever did it? 996 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: Okase we approached Sunday and Saturday at three o'clock, you 997 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 1: think something. It's all going to depend on Antoine Woods, 998 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:28,239 Speaker 1: whether Christian radio or a roster move has to be made. 999 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:30,839 Speaker 1: We get Garrett here in third in a few minutes, right, 1000 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:34,840 Speaker 1: So I don't know, so who's expendable one of those specials. 1001 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,880 Speaker 1: Keep in mind what happened last Saturday. Noah Brown and 1002 00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 1: Lance Lenore both became active players on Saturday. How great 1003 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:45,719 Speaker 1: do you feel right day Thompson was let go? How 1004 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 1: great do you feel about David Irving plane anymore? I 1005 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 1: think you got Yeah. Every time I like a conversation 1006 00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:58,320 Speaker 1: about that, not not a conversation off campus, but a 1007 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:00,719 Speaker 1: conversation when the head coach is asked about him, it 1008 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:02,879 Speaker 1: doesn't seem like, oh no, he's making progress, he's coming, 1009 00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:06,400 Speaker 1: you know, it seems very You've got some guys. I mean, 1010 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:09,480 Speaker 1: you've got how How how healthy can Tavon Austin be? 1011 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:12,239 Speaker 1: You know? Do you? You you continue to wait for that? 1012 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,400 Speaker 1: Is Tavon Austin something you're gonna use in December? You know, 1013 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:18,279 Speaker 1: with the way this group it currently is, at some 1014 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 1: point you get Terrence Williams back at wide receiver. Well, 1015 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:22,960 Speaker 1: I don't think that. I don't think that's happening. That's 1016 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 1: not going to happen. No, I mean he's eligible, he's 1017 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:29,640 Speaker 1: eligible eligible, right, so I you know that's I think 1018 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 1: it's I think it's your kind of that. You've You've 1019 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:34,839 Speaker 1: got some guys that you know that that are hurt 1020 00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 1: that and I think are trying to come back. But 1021 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:39,960 Speaker 1: are you really going to count on them to come back? 1022 00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:43,000 Speaker 1: Does Tavon fit into your plans? That's what I'm thinking. 1023 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 1: With the receiving core you have, That's what I'm thinking. 1024 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:48,279 Speaker 1: I don't think you're bringing Tavon Austin back next year? 1025 00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:52,279 Speaker 1: Are the rules when it's your own practice squad player, like, 1026 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:55,680 Speaker 1: they do not have to stay So you could do 1027 00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 1: a Lance Lenore back to the practice and right, well, 1028 00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 1: they like lance play special teams and stuff. You know, 1029 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 1: they like him kind of coming out him and Noah Brown. Yeah, 1030 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 1: why do you pick Lance Lenor just because he was 1031 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 1: on the practice squad and you know, and Noah Brown 1032 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,440 Speaker 1: was not the practice squad, right, he was on injured reserve. Ye, 1033 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 1: so so he was the teams could have could have 1034 00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:25,880 Speaker 1: plucked him already Lance Lenore, right, and they didn't or 1035 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:28,319 Speaker 1: or they had a deal in place here where they 1036 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,719 Speaker 1: Noah Brown practice squad eligibility. He's not gonna get there. 1037 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:38,240 Speaker 1: They couldn't get him through. There's no way because because 1038 00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 1: he's got too much talent ability. We've got thirty seconds, 1039 00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:45,799 Speaker 1: all right, Pick I won't get sixty two fifty six, 1040 00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,399 Speaker 1: thirty four thirty one Cowboys. Oh, all week, he said 1041 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:50,600 Speaker 1: sixty two to fifty six. I know that's gonna be 1042 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:54,360 Speaker 1: my gut feeling. Pick twenty six twenty four Cowboys. They 1043 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:58,759 Speaker 1: had to click Michael Gallop back home. That's my click. 1044 00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 1: We'll pick it. Yeah, I'm gonna go against the team here. 1045 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:04,640 Speaker 1: I just feel like that the Cowboys, I just don't 1046 00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:06,560 Speaker 1: feel like they're gonna be able to handle the Falcons 1047 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 1: passing game. I think it's gonna turn into a track meet. 1048 00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:10,719 Speaker 1: I don't think Dallas can keep up and attract meat. 1049 00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:14,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Falcons. Are gonna thirty one 1050 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:18,520 Speaker 1: to twenty one for the Falcons, that's fair. I'm going 1051 00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:22,920 Speaker 1: thirty one twenty one Cowboys.
