We got some 27 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 4: news reports say that teams have requested to interview, of course, 28 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 4: defensive coordinator Dan Quinn and VP of Player Personnel Will McClay. 29 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 4: M We do not want to see them to go, 30 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 4: of course, but I listened, I know, just also listened 31 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 4: to Jerry Jones this morning on one O five through 32 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 4: the fan and Jerry basically what I got from what 33 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 4: I got from that is that of course a lot 34 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 4: of teams were interested in several coaches, so not just 35 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 4: Dan Quinn and Will McLay. But he did make it 36 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 4: clear that they are not required to grant permission. He 37 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 4: made it very clear that they are not required to 38 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 4: grant permission nowadays. 39 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 6: So let's hope that they. 40 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 4: Don't grant permission for dan Quinn and Wilma. You heard that, Jerry, 41 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 4: but no, yeah, so let's just but no, that was 42 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 4: just the gist of it. They did ask, you know, 43 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 4: what's your confidence level in keeping dan Quinn and Will 44 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 4: McClay And we didn't get a concrete answer for that one, 45 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 4: but hopefully, hopefully those guys. 46 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 2: Those two guys stay. 47 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 4: But that's it's great opportunities for Dan Quinn will possibly 48 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 4: be a head coach and Will McClay to be a GM. 49 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 4: But I know they're they're really happy in Dallas. 50 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, And you know, it's the same conversation pretty much 51 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 5: the last three years because they've been successful. And Jerry 52 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 5: talked about that. He said, when you're having success like this, 53 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 5: obviously you're going to be more attractive to other teams 54 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 5: in the NFL, and rightfully so for teams that are 55 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 5: struggling and want to start a new chapter in a 56 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 5: new era, that's going to find success where it can. 57 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 5: But honestly, all of that doesn't really matter this week 58 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 5: to me. I obviously we have to talk about it 59 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 5: and we have to report on it because it's our 60 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 5: job and that's our due diligence. I don't care. The 61 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 5: focus is on the playoffs. The focus is on the Packers, 62 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 5: and I based on how Dan handled this last year 63 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 5: when it came up around the same time, I can 64 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 5: pretty much guarantee he is laser focused. Despite all of 65 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 5: the outside noise and chatter, he wants his team to 66 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 5: win and all of their priority right now is to 67 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 5: win and starting with a pack her on Sunday. They 68 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 5: I get why it's a conversation. We talked about this yesterday, 69 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 5: but it's not It's not the focus right now for 70 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 5: me at least, and I don't think it is for 71 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 5: anybody in this building. 72 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 2: Something Oh, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, 73 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 2: go ahead. 74 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 5: I should feel the way aboutase. 75 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, No, I mean, listen, I don't make the rules. 76 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 6: Uh hey, you do, simply here the rules.

It's because it's 90 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 6: not even I mean, Adam Dirtey has done a great job. 91 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 6: I think that obviously, Joe Whitten, those guys Al Harris, 92 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 6: like they've had tenure here too, And I don't know 93 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 6: all the rules and. 94 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 2: Stuff, and I guess I have to look into it. 95 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 6: But it's just something about the fact that like, yeah, 96 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 6: I understand you're trying to get better. 97 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 2: This team got stuff to do right now. 98 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 6: Facts, yeah, this bebe We need to find a way 99 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 6: for this to wait, because I just don't and I 100 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 6: mean again, maybe it is just a part of the 101 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 6: business and stuff. 102 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 2: I personally don't like it. 103 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 6: Again, and it's not to say that these coaches can't 104 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 6: stay focused and everything. I understand it's the business, but 105 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 6: it really is getting on my nerves having to talk 106 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 6: about it every year, and it's it's getting on my nerves. 107 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 5: I mean, if it makes you feel better, it wouldn't 108 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 5: be a discussion if the Cowboys were not playing well. 109 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 6: And it does make me, I mean again, like yeah, 110 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 6: what this coaching staff has done and the team that 111 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 6: they put together. To your point, it is a testament 112 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 6: of the fact that people look at and even when 113 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 6: you talk about a Will McLay, what he's done from 114 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 6: the scouting, from the scouting side of things, being the 115 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 6: head of the scouting department, and the production that you've 116 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 6: gotten from down the roster, down the draft guys and 117 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 6: stuff like that. 118 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 2: It is. 119 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 6: It is a testament to these gentlemen and what they 120 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 6: do and that they're good at what they're doing. 121 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, and even Jerry even said, I'm sorry, my bad, Jerry. 122 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 4: Even Jerry even said, yeah, my bad. 123 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: I have to look that up. Jerry had even said that. 124 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 4: He was asked, you know, are you discouraged at all 125 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 4: about the multiple calls that you've been getting in the 126 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 4: request you've been getting about your coaching staff, And he 127 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 4: was like, no, that just says that we're. 128 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 2: Doing something right.

Apparently, 136 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 5: I hope not. I'm sorry. I was writing Nicole notes 137 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 5: over here. No, it's okay, my handwriting. I'm trying to 138 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 5: speedwrite horrible handwriting. Something he also talked about that I 139 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 5: wanted to mention on here is Mike. Mike McCarthy's job security. 140 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 7: Uh. 141 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 5: He talked about that after the Washington game and it 142 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 5: was it was. His answer was pretty straightforward until the 143 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 5: end where he said we'll see how the games play out, 144 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 5: and the media took that line specifically, didn't hear anything 145 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 5: he said previously to it, and blew it out of proportion. 146 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 5: So Jerry was asked about that specific line today on 147 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 5: the fan and he basically said, I don't know how 148 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 5: to make this any more clear. Mike Riady has a 149 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 5: contract for next year, Like, I don't know what else 150 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 5: do you want me to tell you? It can't be 151 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 5: any more clear. And he just said he's really happy 152 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 5: with what Mike has done this season. So I really 153 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 5: hope we can put that conver station to bed two 154 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 5: because I'm really tired of the speculation of the playoff 155 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 5: success dictating whether Mike has a job or not after 156 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 5: the season here in Dallas, because everything he has done 157 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 5: up until this point, this coaching staff, that he's put together, 158 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 5: the offensive turnaround three what is it three sixty or 159 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 5: is it one ady, y'all got mad at me about 160 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 5: this last year. The one ad he's done, Yeah, because 161 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 5: three sixties all the Yeah, the one eighty he's done 162 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 5: for this offense is not to be discredited. And I 163 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 5: understand the urgency of needing a playoff win, getting past 164 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 5: the divisional round, wanting to go back to the NFC 165 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 5: Championship game. I get that you're in a thirty year 166 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 5: dry spell. But let's put to bed the conversation of 167 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 5: Mike McCarthy losing his job because of it. I'm sick 168 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 5: of that too. 169 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 4: If we're venting today, I know that we're that's something 170 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 4: that we don't want to talk about with the possibility 171 00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 4: of DQ and Will McClay leaving. But I've gotta ask, 172 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 4: do y'all think that there's a chance that we could 173 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 4: possibly lose DQ? 174 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 6: And I think there's far more of a chance with 175 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 6: the DQ than a Will maclay. There's just so many 176 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 6: like intricate details into losing, like a head of scouting 177 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 6: or someone that's in player personnel, because it's a trickle 178 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:21,479 Speaker 6: down effect. 179 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. 180 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 6: So I do think that it has more that's more 181 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 6: of a chance to especially since d q's been he's been. 182 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 2: Up for these these jobs. 183 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 6: I just think the number of head coaching jobs that 184 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 6: comes open, we know, is limited every year, and so 185 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 6: he's been passing up on him for the last few years. 186 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 6: At some point in time, and maybe it's not this year, 187 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 6: but at some point in time, he is going to 188 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 6: be like, you know what, and I mean and again, like, 189 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 6: even though I was fussing about the interviews, this is 190 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 6: still good experience and stuff for them to go, you know, 191 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 6: to go, get to go get those interviews and to 192 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 6: get that experience. But then also too, I mean again 193 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 6: like it says something about them and their work ethic, 194 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 6: and that's what they work towards, is to get those 195 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 6: calls and to get to get better. 196 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 2: But they do both. 197 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 6: Seem comfortable in what's going on here, and I mean 198 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 6: it will be an adjustment, but not right now because 199 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 6: they go on into the playoffs. 200 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 4: Albert Breer from NBC Sports Boston actually said that DQ 201 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 4: is planning on taking interviews with the Commander's Panthers and Chargers. 202 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 2: At the end of next week. That's what he reported. 203 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 5: That's cool. Yeah, well, and here's my thing tonight. Sorry, 204 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 5: I don't know if you'll notice, I'm kind of battling 205 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 5: this ongoing cough and I had some tweets yesterday like 206 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 5: you good sis, I'm good battling through it, but sorry 207 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 5: for being annoying, coughing and y'all's ears. What I wanted 208 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 5: to say is it's real, It's it's hard out here. 209 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 5: What I wanted to say was I'd be interested to 210 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 5: see how possibly the mindset changes depending on how far 211 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 5: the Cowboys go in the playoffs, because you can't tell 212 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 5: me that it doesn't make it a little bit more 213 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 5: difficult to leave this team if you're pushing thresholds that 214 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 5: haven't been pushed in three years, of course, So I'm 215 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 5: interested to kind of see that. And look, if you're 216 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 5: dan Quinn, why wouldn't you entertain interviews. Why wouldn't you 217 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 5: entertain an opportunity for growth? Anybody would. But I'm interested 218 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 5: at some point when all of this is said and done, 219 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 5: to kind of go back and maybe ask him if 220 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 5: the Cowboys do well, they break that threshold, if that 221 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 5: was kind of a determining factor on if he decides 222 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 5: to stay or not, depending on everything that happens going forward. 223 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 6: Now, Also to just to finish off the conversation about this. 224 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,679 Speaker 2: The state of the NFC. 225 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 6: Is it's really trivial in a sense of even when 226 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 6: you start, I've already glanced, y'all. I've glanced at some 227 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 6: of the draft prospects and some of that stuff. There's 228 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 6: only so many starting quarterbacks to go around, and there's 229 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 6: only there's a lot of teams in the NFC specifically 230 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 6: that are in this kind of rebuilding phase trying to 231 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 6: figure things out whatever. 232 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 2: So to your point, just. 233 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 6: I mean, why not they ran it back this year 234 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 6: and you see how far you get. I do think 235 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 6: there is something to be said about looking across the 236 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 6: NFL and looking at where it is, and you have 237 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 6: a team that you've put together, a staff that you've 238 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 6: put together that you know is every year taking another 239 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 6: step forward. To your point, that is something to consider 240 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 6: as well. 241 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 4: So yeah, and I'm also interested to see how heading 242 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 4: into it, which, of course we'll talk about the matchup 243 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 4: in the next two breaks or next two segments. But 244 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 4: with all of this noise kind of coming out right 245 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 4: now about the possibility of DQ taking interviews and things. 246 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 2: Like that, how the guys kind of. 247 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 4: Mentality is, Yes, you know, heading into Green Bay. I mean, 248 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 4: you just obviously don't want them to be worried about 249 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 4: what's the possibility of losing a coordinator in the off season. 250 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 4: But I also wonder how they kind of handled that 251 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 4: as well. 252 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, sure he's talked to them about it. I'm sure 253 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 6: he's talked to them about it. I feel like last year, Yeah, 254 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 6: the players, some of the players said that he had 255 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 6: the conversation with them, like let them know, Hey this, 256 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,839 Speaker 6: I'm letting you guys know before you hear it anywhere else. 257 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 6: I am taking these interviews whatever the case may be. 258 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 6: It's not like he kept them very in the loop 259 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 6: of what was going on. But also too, after that 260 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,080 Speaker 6: playoff game, You've mentioned it numerous times after the forty 261 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 6: nine Ers games, a lot of the players were emotional 262 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 6: because they understood, Yep, this doesn't happen all the time. 263 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 6: There's guys on this roster that you're not going to 264 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 6: see next year, and that includes staff as well. So 265 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 6: I do think there is an understanding of this business 266 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 6: and the turnover and things how things go. 267 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 2: But I do also know that these guys are very 268 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 2: connected to Dan Quinn. 269 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 6: And he's really revamped and changed a lot of how 270 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 6: some of these guys played football. 271 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 5: I also wonder if it makes them play a little harder, 272 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 5: if it adds some juice to say, like, we want 273 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 5: him to stay facts and we're gonna work our tails 274 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 5: off to make sure that we break that threshold to 275 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 5: give him reason to want to stay even more. I 276 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 5: and you know what's what's really cool about this team 277 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 5: is they know how to stay in the moment right 278 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 5: And and honestly, I wonder how calloused they are from 279 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 5: this conversation if they've been here years prior, because it's 280 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 5: not anything new anymore. And when you have somebody like 281 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 5: Dan and they understand how special of a coach he is, 282 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 5: it's really not unexpected for him to entertain these conversations 283 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 5: or opportunities grow too. And they want the best for him. 284 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 5: They care about him as a person, they care about 285 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 5: him as a coach. So honestly, I think it's like 286 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 5: a little more emotional reaction on the outside than it 287 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 5: would be in the locker room. 288 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 6: It ties into the listening to Dan Quinn yesterday we 289 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 6: didn't get to see the coordinators because we were, you know, here, 290 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 6: but but. 291 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 5: We were, yeah we were, but actually. 292 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 6: But listening to dan Quinn yesterday, he feels very There 293 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 6: was a sense of confidence from every coordinator I listened 294 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 6: to yesterday. They are ready, and they seem like they 295 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 6: really have a very sure understanding, even more than I 296 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 6: think last year. To your point, Jess about d Q 297 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 6: and focusing on what's happening right now, I do feel 298 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 6: like listening to him that he's confident in the coaching 299 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 6: that he's put together, but he's also confident in some 300 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 6: of his personnel. 301 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 302 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 6: I was listening to yesterday and I was just like, Okay, 303 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 6: they're ready to They're ready to go. 304 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, honestly I got that same vibe and I was 305 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 5: gonna ask you about that, So I'm glad you brought 306 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 5: it up. But what I also noticed is they are 307 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 5: learning from past mistakes. We talked about this with Mike 308 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 5: McCarthy yesterday, kind of saying, Hey, I'm not gonna get 309 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 5: emotional with this Green Bay reunion. I just want to win. 310 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 5: I don't care who's on the other side of the ball. 311 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 5: I just want to win. I'm not gonna you know. 312 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 5: He talked about regretting bringing up his pasth to the 313 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 5: locker room, and I'm glad that he did. That last season. 314 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 5: But I'm also really glad that he is mature enough 315 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 5: to kind of learn that that wasn't the approach to take. 316 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 5: That it got in the player's heads, and he said, 317 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 5: this is a player's game. It's not about me, and 318 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 5: I don't want them to feel like they have to 319 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 5: speak on my behalf when it comes to this. And 320 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 5: we kind of started to hear that earlier this week 321 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 5: after the game, Dak talked about, Oh, I'm sure this 322 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 5: will mean a lot to Mike. Jeron Kerr said it 323 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 5: on a conference call. I don't think you'll hear that 324 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 5: going into the locker room win Sayre Thursday. I think 325 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 5: he's he's gonna make it very clear we're just here 326 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 5: to win. It doesn't matter who we play. And it 327 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 5: kind of becomes like a faceless opponent at this point 328 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 5: no matter who you play going forward. 329 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 4: Well, the Cowboys are here to win.

Oh the history runs deep between these two 363 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 4: teams since what nineteen ninety six, sixty six I'm sorry 364 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 4: my numbers a little bit sixty six, but no, just 365 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 4: talking about this Green Bay offense. I know six of 366 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 4: their lead receivers are all either rookie he's or second 367 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 4: year guys, but they're very talented. Of course, you have 368 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 4: a guy like Jordan Love who's four years now in 369 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 4: the league, but this is first year. Really starting where 370 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 4: your concerns as far as this offense. 371 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 2: Let's start with Jordan Love. What does he do well? Really? 372 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 2: So really? 373 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 6: I mean I was just looking at how quick his 374 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 6: releases and he throws really well on the move. You know, 375 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 6: Cowboys have had some trouble with quarterbacks that scramble. 376 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 2: Now He's not a guy that's about to just be like. 377 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 6: You know, like shaking bacon and stuff. But he will 378 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 6: go get yardage when he needs to. With him, pressure 379 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 6: isn't enough. He's honestly, he's so young that again it 380 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 6: takes time to gain a pocket presence and to feel 381 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 6: pressure and stuff. 382 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 2: He will step up in the pocket and make a 383 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 2: throw in the movie. 384 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 6: And sometimes he just will sit back there and he 385 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 6: don't care that pressure is coming. He doesn't care that 386 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,479 Speaker 6: the left tackle is literally like on his hip. He's like, 387 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 6: I'm making this past big Dog. And whereas that's great, 388 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 6: I do think there should be some opportunities for maybe 389 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 6: some bad at balls with the Cowboys defense. 390 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 2: The pursuit to. 391 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 6: Him is gonna have to be violent. It's gonna have 392 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 6: to be consistent. And again, like I said, I don't 393 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 6: think pressure is enough. He's really fearless. 394 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 2: In that way. 395 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 6: He has a poise to him also to in the 396 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 6: hurry up like when they go quick game, he is 397 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 6: on it and the arm talent is there. I was 398 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 6: just I was impressed by him watching him, but I 399 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 6: do think if you're gonna play soft coverage, he's gonna 400 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 6: cook you. Doug he gets rid of the ball really fast. 401 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 6: He's decisive. They do a lot motion and all that stuff, 402 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 6: and we'll get into that later and tomorrow or whatever. 403 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 2: But off rip, I just think he's tall, he stands 404 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 2: in the. 405 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 6: Pocket, he delivers a good ball, really honestly throwing the ball. 406 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 2: I think he has so much room to grow. But 407 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 2: he's good right now. 408 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 6: Where you can catch him slipping is heavy, heavy, heavy 409 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 6: pressure affecting him. 410 00:20:58,680 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 2: Actually hitting him. 411 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 6: You have to get hits on him because he's just 412 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 6: I can't explain it. He's just young and he's. 413 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 2: Just fearless in that sense. It's like he doesn't care 414 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 2: that he's getting pressureus. 415 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 6: So if you are like cowboys, are gonna have to 416 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 6: finish when they get to get to him. But then 417 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 6: also too, he'll put the ball on the ground. He's 418 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 6: still working on that ball security, which happens with some 419 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 6: of these young guys. Yeah, he's still working on that 420 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 6: ball security. But overall, I really love his game, and 421 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 6: I'm excited love Jordan loves his game. 422 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 2: I love his game. 423 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 9: I do. 424 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 2: I'm excited say that about it. I have any opposing quarterback. 425 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:43,919 Speaker 5: He's I half remember that. It's it's cool to watch him. 426 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 2: It really is. 427 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 5: It's just obviously want the Cowboys to speed him this week. 428 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 5: Was it you yesterday that I was talking to that 429 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 5: told me he has a little bit of an Aaron 430 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 5: Rodgers flair. 431 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, he got his release. 432 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 6: When you talk about like Aaron Rodgers, one of the 433 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 6: most distinct things to me is how quickly he releases 434 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 6: the ball. And Jordan has some of that in him 435 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,159 Speaker 6: where if he sees it, he's like, he's it's quick. 436 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 2: It doesn't take any time. 437 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 6: Now, some of these receivers is wide hoping for other 438 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 6: reasons because Chicago didn't. 439 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 2: Put no pressure. I said, baby, y'all gonna run single 440 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 2: hot the whole game. You ain't gonna show up, you 441 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 2: ain't gonna change, no looks, nothing. 442 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 6: So I mean, anyway, Yeah, one thing that stands out 443 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 6: to me is that very similar to the Cowboys at 444 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 6: the beginning of the season. You remember they were moving 445 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 6: the ball really well in between the twenties, moving up 446 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 6: and down the field. But there was a cap on 447 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 6: that red zone, and so they still have some of that. 448 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 2: Too, where they still I don't know where they ring score. 449 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 6: I think they score twenty two points a game, which 450 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 6: when you look at how. 451 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 2: Many tds he has and stuff. You say to yourself, 452 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 2: like how they do that. They struggle a little bit 453 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 2: in the red zone, which. 454 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 6: Is expected with the rookie quarterback because he's still it's 455 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 6: condensed down there and stuff. So I think the Cowboys 456 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 6: will have some opportunities there. Like I said, we'll get 457 00:22:59,680 --> 00:22:59,919 Speaker 6: into them. 458 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 2: But from the quarterback, yeah, he's fun. He throws well 459 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 2: in a move. 460 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 6: If you're gonna pressure him, you better finish because he's 461 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 6: gonna stand up and he's gonna stand in the pocket 462 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 6: and make place. 463 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,239 Speaker 5: You know, what really stood out to me is their 464 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 5: efficiency on third and ten plus. Here's the thing, they'll 465 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 5: make it. The Packers had a third down conversion rate 466 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 5: of thirty three point three percent on third and ten 467 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 5: plus in the last four weeks of the regular season, 468 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 5: fourth best in the NFL. Cowboys defense allowed a third 469 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 5: down conversion rate of forty four point four percent on 470 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 5: third and ten plus in the last four weeks, second 471 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 5: worst in the NFL. So this is a game where 472 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 5: you know, we usually talk about keeping everybody behind the sticks, 473 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 5: and it's a game of inches, and you have to 474 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 5: do that on first and second down. You cannot even 475 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 5: count that in that third down situation that he's not 476 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,400 Speaker 5: gonna make a play. He is fearless, and that's where 477 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 5: it comes into play, is third and ten. He's not afraid. 478 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 5: He's still gonna sling that ball. But what I did 479 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 5: notice when I was watching some stuff and taking some 480 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 5: notes getting all the stats together, is he loves to 481 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 5: throw down the middle of the field. Your safeties are 482 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 5: really going to have to have a game, which makes 483 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 5: you really hopeful considering what you've seen in the last 484 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 5: two weeks, the re emergence of guys like Jordan Lewis, 485 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,120 Speaker 5: Donovan Wilson. I'm really glad, and Jeron Hurst talked about 486 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 5: this earlier this week. He said they're hitting strides at 487 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 5: the right time and that's coming in play. Fourth best 488 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 5: of the NFL for throwing up the middle of the season, 489 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 5: Cowboys have allowed ten point one yards per drop back 490 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 5: when defending passes up the middle of the season. So 491 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 5: this offense is going to test this Cowboys defense. It's 492 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 5: not going to be an easy feat. Where I do 493 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 5: see this whole conversation of them being a young offense, 494 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 5: the young team overall. This is the youngest team heading 495 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 5: into the place the playoffs. Hello, I almost said postseason 496 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 5: and playoffs. Yeah, I just got excited. Is there's opportunity 497 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 5: when you have guys like Tank Lauren who knows how 498 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 5: to kind of pray on younger opponents that he knows 499 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 5: how to be patient with it. And I think your 500 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 5: veteran presence on the other side of the ball here 501 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 5: on this Cowboys defense, Jonathan Hankins, is going to come 502 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 5: in handy in this game because they know, if anything, 503 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 5: you even see little things, how to get penalties on 504 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 5: the other side, take advantage of that youth and that inexperience, 505 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 5: or you let it burn you and they're rejuvenated and 506 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 5: they get their hype going and you fall behind. But yeah, 507 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 5: this Green Bay offense definitely poses threats to this Cowboys defense. Overall, 508 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 5: It's not going to be an easy game whatsoever. 509 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 4: My bad, I don't even put you off. What concerns 510 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 4: me kind of is the fact that this is an 511 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 4: offense that can run the football effectively with Aaron Jones 512 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,959 Speaker 4: and make the deep ball and I cannot pronounce his name, 513 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 4: Dontavious Wicks. Is that it Wicks that's one of their 514 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 4: lead receivers, and I think for him he's fast, kind 515 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 4: of took notes on how he runs routes. 516 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 9: He can create separation. 517 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 2: Big two. 518 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 4: He's been tall, six foot one two oh six. But 519 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 4: one thing that I do notice is that if they 520 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 4: use him in pass pro, he's not really good with that. 521 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 2: I'm so glad that she brought that up, because that 522 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 2: literally was where I was going with that. 523 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 4: He's not good at all in pass pro and that's 524 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 4: like the complete opposite of the way that we use 525 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 4: our receivers like CDEs Cooks every now and then. I 526 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 4: noticed that, So that could be somewhere where we could 527 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 4: take advantage of. But he's a guy that they're gonna 528 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 4: go to for big. 529 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 2: Plays for sure. I know when he was in college. 530 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 4: His junior year, I believe he had nearly twenty plus 531 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 4: yards on half of his receptions in twenty twenty one. 532 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 4: So that's a big concern for me. But Aaron Jones 533 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 4: also they use him as a receiver. 534 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 5: Yep. 535 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 4: It's also coming out of the backfield, so I don't know. 536 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 4: And the way that they disguise their looks, it concerns me. 537 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:03,400 Speaker 2: They do a lot. 538 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 6: They do a no And when you mentioned Aaron Jones, 539 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 6: so I did some digging because I was trying to. 540 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 6: When I was watching them, I was like, well. 541 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 2: Where is aj Dillon. 542 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 6: He's dealing with a thumb and a neck injury. I 543 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 6: think they did activate his practice window whatever, so I 544 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 6: think he's still going to be kind of slow to 545 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 6: come back because he's dealing with some stuff. So I've 546 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 6: been looking at how they're manufacturing the run game, and 547 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 6: what they're doing is that they're using their wide receivers 548 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 6: in the run game. They're they're using their wide receivers. 549 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 2: In the run game. They're using them in motion. They're 550 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 2: using it for jet sweeps. 551 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 6: They bring them, yes, they bring them behind the formation. 552 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 6: They do some like fake reverses and stuff like that. 553 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 6: I called Number eighteen. 554 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 2: I don't remember what his name is. I wrote it down. 555 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,360 Speaker 2: I called him the motion man. 556 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 6: Because that's that's what they're doing. Because Aaron Jones can't 557 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 6: do it all by hisself. 558 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, he just can't. 559 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 6: And the reason why he's always done some things in 560 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 6: the in the passing game. But they're doing it even 561 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 6: more now to your point, to throw people off kilter. 562 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 6: And so also they're setting up big plays by having 563 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 6: him kind of slip out to the flat and then 564 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 6: act like Okay, he's catching the ball and stuff. 565 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 2: So I am, yeah, there's a lot of people who 566 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 2: are to look at huge calves. That's how I remember him. 567 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 2: What that's literally like his claim the fame. 568 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 5: Anyway, it's so funny. That's like the second time I've 569 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 5: heard that this week. But like on another podcast I 570 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 5: do for for work, my co host was like, his 571 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 5: calves are the size of my torso, so I googled it. 572 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:47,719 Speaker 6: I was like, yeah, he does have some nice but 573 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 6: uh but yes, okay, so sorry, but but yeah number 574 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 6: eighteen for them Malie Keith. 575 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 2: They use him. 576 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 6: They bringing him around the formation with this orbit motion. 577 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 6: They're setting up like they're setting up lot with their emotion. 578 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 6: But they're also too they be doing these these players 579 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 6: we take forever. 580 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 2: You don't got a lot of time with the Cowboys boss, 581 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 2: especially if they're reading it. 582 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 6: So I wonder if they do go more quick game, 583 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 6: whatever the case may be. So for me, I to 584 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 6: your point about Aaron Jones. Cowboys fans have a huge 585 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 6: fear of Aaron Jones just because of what. 586 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 2: He has done to them in the past. You wasn't here, 587 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 2: he was here. 588 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 5: We experienced and remember it. 589 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 6: Was Aaron Jones cannot be like have in the year 590 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 6: last year when they played well, he was having a 591 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 6: pretty good. 592 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 2: Year to his standard. 593 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 6: This year, I don't know how he feels. He's dealt 594 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 6: with some injuries. He's like that, he's a little banged up. 595 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 6: I don't see the same explosiveness. But they will attack 596 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 6: the edges. He will cut backside and take it to 597 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 6: the house. He still has that ability. But I will say, 598 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 6: looking at this offensive line too, I was more. 599 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 2: Impressed by their offensive line than what I thought I 600 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 2: was gonna be. 601 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 6: But baby, these tackles are catchy. And what I mean 602 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 6: by that is they're waiting for the contact to come to. 603 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 2: Them, and they're not being the aggressors. Baby. I see 604 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 2: ned left tackle of Rashid Walker. 605 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 6: I've seen him get walked into his walked into his 606 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 6: s What I'm talking about is that their tackles. I 607 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 6: think there should be some opportunity there for the Cowboys 608 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 6: to take advantage of their tackles and also to their 609 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 6: center Josh Myers. 610 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 2: He's given up twenty eight pressures. 611 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,719 Speaker 6: Twenty hurries, five sacks, and six QB hits this season. 612 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 5: Something that I did notice about the Packers as well. 613 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 5: Is you know how we always talk about on the 614 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 5: Cowboys offensive side, hey, quit running the ball on first down. 615 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 5: That's what they love to do. They will Something the 616 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 5: Packers will do is they will run the ball on 617 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 5: first down. So you have an opportunity early on to 618 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 5: shut down the run because they're gonna do it. They're 619 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 5: gonna test you on first down. Aaron Jones will absolutely 620 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 5: do that. In fact, let me see I wrote this down. 621 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 5: He ranked first in the NFL as he averaged six 622 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 5: point four yards per carry on first down in the 623 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 5: last four weeks of the regular season. What that tells 624 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 5: me is on we talk about hitting strides at the 625 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 5: right time, Aaron is coming back from injury. He's hitting 626 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 5: his stride at the right time. Unfortunately for the Cowboys 627 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 5: run defense, Cowboys allowed five point five yards per carry 628 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 5: on first down in the last four weeks of the 629 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 5: regular season, third worst in the NFL. However, I think 630 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 5: that's more measured by what you saw with the Dolphins 631 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 5: and Buffalo, not so much the final two games that 632 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 5: they played. So run defense going to be tested, and 633 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 5: that's when it starts up front in the trenches. Jonathan 634 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 5: Hankins luckily on. 635 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 2: The up and up, and it's going to be vital. 636 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 5: His presence is going to be vital in this game. 637 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 5: I'm not Uncle Hank, I. 638 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 2: Willun He'd be like I should, I'm thirty one. I'm like, yeah, 639 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 2: I forgot where close it doesn't matter. 640 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 6: But but no, I also will say that this Green 641 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 6: Bay Packers team, they have had instances. 642 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 2: Where they have they'll go score. 643 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 6: Cowboys just got a score because when you scoring, it 644 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 6: takes all this running and taking your time. It takes 645 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,719 Speaker 6: that ability out of your opponent's of playbook because they're 646 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 6: playing catch up. So it is gonna be important for 647 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 6: the Cowboys defense, well offense, rather to score. 648 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 2: And I know we're getting tells well. 649 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 6: But no, I just you have to challenge this offense. 650 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 6: You have to challenge them. And what I mean by 651 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 6: that is when you talk about the safeties, he's good 652 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 6: at attack in the middle of the field, showing some 653 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 6: he ain't seen, disguises, things of that nature. May be 654 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 6: showing and going some blitzing, whatever. 655 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 2: The case may be. 656 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 6: You know, because if you're gonna play again, if you're 657 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 6: gonna play straight up, single high, straight up zone with them, 658 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 6: they're gonna find ways to be there.

We're 732 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 4: kind of talking off to set off the show a 733 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:01,240 Speaker 4: little about Jaden Reid. 734 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 2: What does he kind of do that it's a little dangerous. 735 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 2: I like him. 736 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 6: I remember him from the draft and immediately seeing him 737 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 6: and being impressed with his speed and how he marries 738 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 6: his speed to his route running, which because there's a 739 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 6: lot of guys who are fast, but they're not football fast, 740 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 6: or they're not en route like running a route and 741 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 6: they're still fast. 742 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 2: Brandon Cooks has that ability to where his speed is 743 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 2: on display. 744 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 6: He's not just because some guys are like they're just burners, right, 745 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 6: they can run past you, but to be able to 746 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:38,359 Speaker 6: incorporate it into your game. And so I think they're 747 00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 6: finding I wrote down, they're finding unique ways to use 748 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 6: his speed, and they use him. They get him running 749 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 6: starts like you're talking about coming from motion and they 750 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 6: call it push motion rather basically where it's just this 751 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 6: guy's coming behind the formation and he's basically able to 752 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 6: he has a run and start, so he. 753 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,399 Speaker 2: Can go past your. 754 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 6: Secondary or he can go past your linebackers or whoever. 755 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,200 Speaker 6: So to just this point earlier, when we're talking about 756 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 6: the safeties, they really put a lot of stress on you. 757 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 6: His speed and the angles he takes and some of 758 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 6: the things they do out of the backfield puts a 759 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 6: lot of stress on your safeties to take good angles 760 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:18,359 Speaker 6: and to tackle well, like it really does because they 761 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 6: put you off. They understand leverage well, I think it's 762 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 6: an offense. And so for me with him, it's just 763 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 6: they're doing things to get him open and for his 764 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,760 Speaker 6: speed to prevail. And when he's open, dog, he's open, y'all, 765 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 6: like he's like. And again I do also think it's 766 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 6: because of how defenses are electing to play them like 767 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 6: have mercy. 768 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:39,200 Speaker 2: Why are y'all all just. 769 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 6: They are tearing this covered one up, just killing it 770 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 6: this single high up. So for me, I just I 771 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,880 Speaker 6: like the things that they're doing bringing their guys behind 772 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 6: the formation and being able to get them in good 773 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,320 Speaker 6: spacing for him to be able for Jordan to be 774 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 6: able to deliver the ball to him and be confident. 775 00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 2: Because he will type throw on some tight windows. 776 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 6: He's not having too with Jayden because he typically has 777 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:02,880 Speaker 6: a step on people. 778 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 5: And also you talked about their struggles in the red 779 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 5: zone and struggle scoring. Well, guess who is seventh in 780 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 5: the league for receiving touchdowns. 781 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 2: Jane Reid is impressed with that part. 782 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 5: Eight receiving touchdowns, two rushing touchdowns. So if you want 783 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 5: to keep an eye on anybody in the red zone 784 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 5: when they do march downfield, because not a problem of 785 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 5: them marching downfield. They're extending drives. The Packers offense is 786 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 5: getting downfield. It's just scoring that seems to be the 787 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 5: issue there too. But that's your guy to keep an 788 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 5: eye on, because guess what, look at this. He's only 789 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:40,280 Speaker 5: had three drops all season. Three drops, I mean three, 790 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 5: that's the guys. That's one hand three. 791 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 4: So how should you, if you're dq, how should you 792 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 4: plan to defend this passing attack? I mean, really, they 793 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 4: do it all, I mean, so how do you plan 794 00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 4: to defend them? 795 00:39:55,680 --> 00:40:00,760 Speaker 6: Honestly, I call me crazy. Caboys run cowboy run. 796 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 2: A lot of they run a lot of men. 797 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 6: But the last few weeks and stuff, they've changed up 798 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 6: some looks, they've done some zone, they've they've shown that 799 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 6: they're gonna run, man, but then it goes on like 800 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:10,760 Speaker 6: they've done. 801 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 2: Some different things. 802 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 6: I think you definitely, when you're playing a young quarterback, 803 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 6: you gotta do things to switch up looks and things 804 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 6: like that. But also too similar to Miami, in my opinion, 805 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,319 Speaker 6: you ain't getting no free releases big dog. 806 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. 807 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 6: Like it is, it's gonna be harder to defend because 808 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,879 Speaker 6: again they're bringing him out the backfield and they're doing 809 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 6: all this stuff. So I think also you just got 810 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 6: to get a hat on him. You just got to 811 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 6: get hands on on some of these guys. Now, the 812 00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 6: rest of the gentlemen on the team, I think that 813 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 6: they still have some other players. 814 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 2: But he's the he's the money maker. 815 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 6: He's the guy that Jordan is looking for in scrambled 816 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 6: drill as well when he's scrambling and. 817 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 2: Looking for stuff. So for me, I think you just 818 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:51,760 Speaker 2: gotta get hands on these guys. 819 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 5: Also, the past deflections forced fumbles that are gonna be 820 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 5: really key in this game. 821 00:40:58,160 --> 00:40:59,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a yack team too. 822 00:40:59,480 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 5: To your point. 823 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 2: It is ya team. 824 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 7: It's the thing is is, don't get me started this 825 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:10,000 Speaker 7: whole tackling conversation. Okay, well they have been okay, but 826 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 7: the problem is is when you're talking explosive plays, it's 827 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 7: not just tackling that has been the issue. It's you know, 828 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:19,919 Speaker 7: the misdirection that they kind of fall for sometimes. I've 829 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 7: noticed tackling has been fine. 830 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 5: But they have to continue to do it well against 831 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 5: a good team. And yes, you saw them tackle well 832 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 5: against the Lions, you saw them tackle well against Miami. 833 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 5: But but you have to eliminate explosive play opportunity for 834 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:41,280 Speaker 5: this team. They will get you on long yardage situation. 835 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 5: So keeping them behind the sticks is not enough in 836 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 5: a game like this. Yeah, and usually it is. Usually 837 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 5: it's enough in a game to say, hey, just keep 838 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 5: them behind the sticks, keep them at third and long. 839 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 5: It starts in first and second down. This is not 840 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 5: the game for that. This is the game where it's 841 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 5: going to test your ability to allow explosive plays, which 842 00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 5: the Cowboys have struggled. 843 00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 2: With off and on throughout the season. Screen game to 844 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 2: which room will be tested the most? I think in 845 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 2: this game. 846 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, in this game, safety corner back too. It's a 847 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:12,759 Speaker 5: level It depends on Stefan Gilmore's health, I think too. 848 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 5: I think if he's available or not, that kind of 849 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 5: switches things around. Dan did talk about that yesterday, saying, 850 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,279 Speaker 5: you know, we kind of are always ready for situations 851 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 5: like this because it's the nature of the game. But 852 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 5: I think if Gilly's not out there, it's it changes 853 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 5: some things around a lot. But overall, for me, it's 854 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:34,319 Speaker 5: what I want to see is I want to see 855 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:35,839 Speaker 5: it start up front. I don't even want to see 856 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:37,320 Speaker 5: it get to the secondary level. 857 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 6: Which they which Again there's some favorable matchups across this 858 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 6: offensive line and what they do. But and again, like 859 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 6: I said, they also to the left guard is having 860 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 6: to help out the left tackle. The titands are having 861 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 6: to help out the offensive line, so it takes away 862 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 6: from them and I think they are going to have to. 863 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 2: They don't have to chip. Yeah, And that's that's the 864 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 2: thing too. Like we're talking about, we're talking about them. 865 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 6: And how good they are and stuff, they have to 866 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 6: account for the Cowboys defensive line and those guys too. 867 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,760 Speaker 2: And they are They're gonna have their. 868 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,800 Speaker 6: Hands full as well with dealing with the Cowboys pressure 869 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,319 Speaker 6: and also to having to chip when those tight ends 870 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 6: are taken away as passing options. 871 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 2: You best believe your wide receivers better be able to 872 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:16,799 Speaker 2: win one on one. 873 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, and so they are are the Cowboys secondary. Cowboys 874 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 6: defense is probably the best defense they've seen in this four. 875 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 2: Week run and stuff. 876 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,959 Speaker 6: So well, we're talking about them being a good team 877 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:29,880 Speaker 6: and them having things they can do, you also have 878 00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 6: to look at the other side because, baby, if they 879 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 6: can't block it up, it's gonna be a long day. 880 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 6: And as far as you mentioned something really key about 881 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 6: the misdirection and stuff, Jes they run their screen game heavy. 882 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 2: So their screen game. 883 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,439 Speaker 6: The Cowboys have had some trouble with the screen game. 884 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 6: You saw it last minute in Miami. You saw, you've 885 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,319 Speaker 6: seen it. They're gonna have to trust their eyes. They're 886 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 6: gonna have to rally and tackle. I would love to 887 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 6: see some of those safeties, Donovan Wilson, those guys. Jordan 888 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 6: Lewis has been involved in the backfield, making some tackles 889 00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 6: in and doing some things behind the line of scrimmage 890 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 6: as well. 891 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,960 Speaker 4: All right, well, now we're gonna switch gears tomorrow, talking 892 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 4: Cowboys offense versus packer's defense. But that's a wrap for 893 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 4: today's show.
