We will spend quite a bit 15 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: of the show today with Dave giving us his scattered 16 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: report on the Seattle offense. We talked about the defense ester, 17 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: we talked about the offense the other day. We're gonna 18 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: talk about defense today. How's everybody doing today? Great? Yeah, awesome, 19 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: Let's jump right in. Let's talk about this injury report 20 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: there were two guys that did not practice. Both did 21 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 1: not practice on what would have been I guess I'm 22 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: confused on Friday, on Wednesday, what would have been a 23 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: Thursday with David Irving and Xavier seue Philo. Are you 24 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: guys at this point thinking that Xavier suel Philos is 25 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: unlikely to play due to the fact that he has 26 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,479 Speaker 1: not practiced this week? At this point, I am yes, 27 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: because it's Friday in Cowboys world at least, and he 28 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: is not at practice. Jason Garrett also said today that 29 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: he is not going through the walkthroughs, So he's not 30 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: even doing not even doing walkthrough just to know what 31 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: his mental reps. Yeah, to me, suggests that he does 32 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: not have a very high likelihood of playing in this game. 33 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: How concerned are you, Verry? He's way better than Connor Williams. Yeah, 34 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: Hunter Williams did not play well in that first game 35 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: against Yeah own, hopefully he's better, you know, better player. 36 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: But I mean, I don't think it's a coincidence the 37 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: team started winning once they put him in. I mean, 38 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: it's not just Cooper. He was a big part of it. 39 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: And so I think he's a better player, and I 40 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 1: would like to see him out there more than Connor Williams. 41 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: Yet you want to have a few things that are 42 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: different than that first game because they kind of kick 43 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: your ass the first time around, so you want to 44 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: have some things that are different. This is a noticeable 45 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: difference to me, and him not being out there is 46 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: a big deal. They will talk a little bit about 47 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: that defense, but in that last game they were able 48 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 1: to hit. They hit Dak ten times and they they've 49 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: sacked him five times, So a defensive front, they had 50 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: some You with the whole turnover thing. He didn't throw 51 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: an interception, they didn't let the ball the ball lose 52 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: and that's a big thing with him when he comes 53 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: to plane. So I'd be interesting, a curious to see 54 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: if he can do that. It managed to do that 55 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 1: again with more struggles on the outline. We're talking, we're 56 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,679 Speaker 1: talking Dac right now. Yeah, he had he had two 57 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: turnovers in that So y'all game two. I'm talking about 58 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: like the last game. Oh no, Yeah, he's been great 59 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: at ball security the last two weeks in Seattle. No, 60 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 1: not so much, which we'll get into it. What has 61 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: given the Cowboys problems this year? Interior pass rushers and 62 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: Seahawks have a good one. So yep. They fumbled twice 63 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: in that game against Seattle. Zeke did Dako just throw 64 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: two picks? Yeah? And both of the interceptions they were 65 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah they were. They were kind of free 66 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: plays a little bit. But but you know, sometimes when 67 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: you put the ball in the wrong place, that kind 68 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: of stuff ends up happening. And certainly on the second 69 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: when you could make the argument that he probably shouldn't 70 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: have made that throw into that particular coverage. But I 71 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: will say, in defense of Connor Williams, I would much 72 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: rather have a healthy Zavier suea Philo. But he's not healthy. 73 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: So I think I said that yesterday. I think I'd 74 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: rather have a one hundred percent healthy Connor Williams than 75 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: a Xavier sue Philo who you know, can't put any 76 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: weight on his foot. And I don't think that's that 77 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: That sounds like a recipe for trouble to me. Um, 78 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean it's definitely concerning, but you know, 79 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: you gotta make do. And in times like I keep thinking, Oh, 80 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: he's gonna play, he's gonna play. They're just gonna wrap 81 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: the crap out of that ankle and just wrap it 82 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: and wrap it and wrap it and help it. You 83 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: row him in there, but the crap out of that ankle. 84 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: You're absolutely right, though, how often do we I mean, 85 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: every it's a very it's a common theme on our show, 86 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: and like he's gonna play like they're shoot it up, 87 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: wrap it up, shoot it up, get him out there. 88 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: But every now and then you come up against the 89 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: problem that you can't do that with and just can't 90 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: fix it, can't rule him out. But if he I mean, 91 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: he's not even going through walkthroughs, that to me suggests 92 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: that they are preparing Connor Williams to have to play 93 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: this game because if nothing else, to walk through, make 94 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: sure that mentally you know what right to do so 95 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,679 Speaker 1: that when you are healthy, if there's a game time decision, 96 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: you're a guy, if you're a guy that can you know, 97 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: tape it up and shoot it up, then then you're 98 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: probably going through walkthrough And they're like, all right, you 99 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: can't practice, but let's make sure you know your assignments, right, 100 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: That's not the case here, So all right, let's talk 101 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: about some of the guys that were limited. Dave. Yesterday 102 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: you mentioned Tavon Austin being limited this week. He also 103 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: is joined by Sean Lee, Zach Martin, Tyron Smith, Tyron Crawford, 104 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: and Darien Thompson as guys that are limited. How concerned 105 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: are you about that from standpoint of Tavon Austin and 106 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: what you talked about yesterday him being limited this week 107 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: when last week he was full. We actually so I 108 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: asked Jason Garrett about it today in his press conference. 109 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: He said, you know, he's coming back. He came I think, 110 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: Garrett said, he played fifteen snaps. He kind of came 111 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: out of that, you know, favoring it, trying to you know, 112 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: listen to your body type of deal. He was at 113 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: practice today, he was fielding punts today, he was taking 114 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: part in things. So I guess that's a good sign. 115 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: And Jason said they're optimistic about his availability for the weekend, 116 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: so we'll see. Now. Most of the guys on this 117 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: list of limited are guys that are kind of been 118 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: a similar boat from the standpoint of they've been hurt, 119 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: they they're veteran players, and it made me wonder if 120 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: this is more just one of those things where it's like, well, 121 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: we're limiting them because we don't necessarily want to overwork 122 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: them and practice their veteran players. We want them to 123 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: be ready for game day. Take it. Tavan and Thompson 124 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: are the guys that I'm watching in terms of their availability. 125 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,359 Speaker 1: Darry and Thompson strained his growing in practice yesterday. He 126 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: wasn't he was out there, but he wasn't practicing. He 127 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: was doing rehab. The other guys, I those are all 128 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: those are veteran guys. It's not the same situation to you, 129 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: Tavon as these other guys. I know, Zach's gonna play, 130 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 1: Tyrone's gonna play, Tyrone's gonna play. Yeah, Derek, I mean 131 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: that's standard injury procedure. Those guys are playing. I wasn't 132 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: gonna say it's a short week, but those three guys 133 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: it hasn't been. Tyrone and Tyrone and Zach all didn't play. 134 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: But yeah, I do think the short week is, you know, 135 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: it's something that they're trying to manage as well. I 136 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: do think Tavan and Suafhilo are tied together on this. 137 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: I think that if Sua Philo is going to play 138 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: and then you need more offensive linemen. I think Tavon's 139 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 1: a guy that maybe sits, but the fact that he 140 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: was working on the punt return team as the punt 141 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: returner on today's practice makes me think he's going to 142 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 1: be active for the game. And if Darian Thompson is 143 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: now limited with with what I guess as a growing injury, 144 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: it's just happened. That also gives you if he if 145 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: he ends up in a sea, make a decision that's 146 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: he has been participating. But I could not definitively tell 147 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: you what he's what he's done. He's special teams. That's 148 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: what I was trying to figure out. Just now. I'm like, 149 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: what what if he's been active. If he's been active 150 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: and he can't play, yeah, Dry and Thompson, Um, I 151 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: think that that he could be released and you put it, 152 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: put a little guy out, put a lumbo or somebody 153 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: that that can run down on Maybe possible if he 154 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: is playing and he can't. I mean, I don't think 155 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: it's like what if we don't have him for the 156 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: next game, Like, nah, you'll be fine. Yeah, yeah, I 157 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: would agree with that, but he I mean, if they don't, 158 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: he's a candidate to being active for sure. All right, 159 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: let's go ahead and jump into this this Seattle offense 160 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: that I'm Seattle defense killing me with this to all 161 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: off of my days and everything. But let's jump into 162 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: the Seattle defense. Obviously, the one thing that jumped out 163 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: to me as I was looking back at the previous 164 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: game to this game. It wasn't really I don't know 165 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: that we talked about it enough on this show, how 166 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: dominant their defense was, particularly in the first half. Catch this. 167 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: In the first seven possessions the Cowboys had, Seattle held 168 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: them to a three and out. Now, one of those 169 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: was an interception on the third play, but five of 170 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: seven possessions they had three plays and then they got 171 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: rid of them and then Seattle took over. It's it 172 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: was a in my opinion, a pretty stifling defensive front 173 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: or defense that the Cowboys face, and the Cowboys really 174 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: didn't find any answers to it until the second half, 175 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: and that was still very marginal. Dave talked us about that, 176 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: that Seattle defense, so well, I'm gonna sort of undermine 177 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: what you just said, but this is just my opinion. Yeah, 178 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: and I don't I don't want to make excuses, but 179 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: like that, the main thing that jumps out to me 180 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: from that game, and I'll throw the Carolina game in 181 00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: there is that it was just like it was off 182 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: offensive execution, like unbecoming of the NFL. Basically, Like it 183 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,199 Speaker 1: was that it was atrocious, and it was so atrocious 184 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: that I tend to put more of it on the 185 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys for just being bad than the Seahawks for being good, 186 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And I felt the same 187 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: way about the Carolina game. Eight points, thirteen points, however 188 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: many three and ounce what was their third down percentage 189 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: in those games, Like those were numbers so far below 190 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: the average of what you see in the NFL that 191 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: I put more of it on the offense than the defense. 192 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: And I think that's why you saw this team go 193 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: out and spend a first round pick on Amari Cooper. 194 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: They're like, we cannot continue to play this way, like 195 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: it's embarrassing, for lack of a better word, like that's 196 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: what this team started out. And if you go back 197 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: and look, I know he fumbled twice. Ezekiel Elliott ran 198 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: for one hundred and twenty seven yards in that game, 199 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: Like it's not like they couldn't get anything going. They 200 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: were just so unbalanced. They could not protect ac he 201 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: could not throw the ball. Oh no, I was just 202 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: you asked the question, and I have the answer. Three 203 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: of thirteen third down in that game, second worst only 204 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: to Carolina. Embarrassing again, like just not like you play 205 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: bad offense sometimes in the NFL. That was so bad. 206 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: It's just it just was not professional football, at least 207 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: not the standard that you come to expect from NFL teams. 208 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: Weird that last week's was by far the best third 209 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 1: down without your your you know, goal line running back. 210 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: They found a tight end eleven of seventeen on third down. 211 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: They have been so unbelievably better since they got Cooper, 212 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: and it's not all it's not all Cooper, but obviously 213 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: it has a triple down effect. Uh So I want 214 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 1: to start you know, I don't want to take credit 215 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: away from the Seahawks, but I kind of just basically 216 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 1: did you did? Yeah? No, I mean, I'm sorry, that's 217 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: but but but just to be clear, I don't think 218 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: you're saying the Seahawks defense isn't good. You're just saying 219 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: the Cowboys had as much to do with that poor 220 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: performance as absolutely and and not like oh we can't 221 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: we were shooting ourselves in the foot like no, like 222 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: you didn't have players like straight up like you couldn't 223 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: block them, you didn't have a receiver that could get open. 224 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: That's Dak's picks were both volleyball to quote Nick, and 225 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: that's because nobody could get separation on anything in that game. 226 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: So anyway, all of that said, this is a good 227 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: Seahawks defense. They're not the legion of Boom. Their middle 228 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: of the pack statistically, and I think that's you run 229 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: into a scenario where maybe the stats lie a little bit, 230 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: like I think they're better than you know, Okay, they're 231 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: sixteenth overall, seventeenth against the past eleventh and scoring decent. 232 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: I think they're better than that, as evidenced by things 233 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: like they have the fourth best red zone defense in 234 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: the NFL. They have a better red zone defense than 235 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: the Cowboys do, which we've been talking about how good 236 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: the Cowboys red zone defense is all year. They get 237 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: kJ They've got kJ right back, which is a big deal. 238 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: They got two studle you pair him with Bobby Wagner. 239 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: Right missed the first game with a knee injury. He 240 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: missed the vast majority at the season, really, but he's 241 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: been back for three weeks now. He appears to be 242 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: playing like the same guy. Who was pretty good. Um, 243 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: you've got a fourteen sack end and Frank Clark, you 244 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: have Tyrant Smith fits in that first game, just absolute fits. 245 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: Jaren Reid is a guy. How do you do you? 246 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: Just like they? Is there a list somewhere on the 247 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: internets like these are all the king I'm just saying 248 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: all of them? Yeah, okay, coretty much. Well he's got 249 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:33,359 Speaker 1: ten and a half sacks, second round pick out of Alabama. Um, 250 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 1: he is a ball, that's you know, the first game 251 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: was in Week three. He hadn't really had a chance 252 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 1: to establish himself. But he is well established. And this 253 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: is this isn't the same Seahawks pass rush from years 254 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: past where they went like eight deep. But those two 255 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: guys concerned me specifically read because of how much trouble 256 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: we've seen these these dominant interior pass rushers give the Cowboys. Um, 257 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: so this is that's a huge number two and a 258 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: half for an inside he has played. I know in 259 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: that game he played outside a little bit because there 260 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: was one sack that he got up against. He's a 261 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: he's a versatile player. He can do both, but he's 262 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 1: primarily played on the inside. Gotten a lot of his 263 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: push from the inside too. Um, the front is really 264 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 1: what concerns me here actually something to watch, uh there? 265 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 1: Which you know again you manage guys in the playoffs. 266 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: I get that, But basically their entire secondary is on 267 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: the injury report right now. We'll see what today holds. 268 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: But Shaquille Griffin their best corner and Brad McDougald their 269 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: best safety have not practiced yet this week. Didn't they 270 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 1: have a safety earlier this week that was put on IR. 271 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if he was a backup or special 272 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: teams guy, but I thought, I remember you mentioning that 273 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: sety that went on IR. It's not IR, guys. I 274 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: just noticed that because it usually you'll see it on 275 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,440 Speaker 1: social media and then it just kind of pops into 276 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: my head. But the last time we argued about this, 277 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: I was wrong. I'm not I'm not making a definitive declaration. 278 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: You tried to tell Hollins was out and I was like, no, 279 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: he's right here on my sheet. Um, yeah, we don't 280 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: trust that SAT anymore all the time. Tedrick Thompson is 281 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: their de facto starter with with Earl Thomas obviously being 282 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: long gone. He's at a Colorado He's on the injury 283 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,839 Speaker 1: report as well. He's not on injured reserve, he's limited. 284 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: He's been limited this week in practice. So the front 285 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: impresses me a lot more than the back, which is 286 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: obviously not the case from previous years. And any I 287 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: don't nick what you got nothing? Oh you're shaking your head? No, 288 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: what is it like? There was a reason why there 289 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: was a pause there, and I wasn't even going to 290 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: look up and make eye contact with anyone, So I 291 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: thought what Dave just said was going to be one 292 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: of those moments, and I was trying to get out 293 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: of it. So I have no idea what you're talking of. 294 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: Good implied, No, it was good. I was trying to 295 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: stay out of it. It's my fault the implier. Yes 296 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: you said it, you said it, So I was just like, oh, man, 297 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: I don't even want to touch this. So I just 298 00:14:55,400 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: stayed out of it. And now imagine I'm scared. I'm 299 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: scared of the red zone again. I know the Cowboys 300 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: had success with Blake Jarwin last weekend, but I'm concerned 301 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: if they're gonna be whether they're gonna be able to 302 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: keep this up or not and actually do it once 303 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: again in the red zone and with the other guys 304 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: in you got Zeke and all these other tools, and 305 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: also like using Dak running the ball. But like you mentioned, 306 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: why were they in running defense and red zone defense? 307 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 1: They're allowing a touchdown forty nine percent of the time, 308 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: which is fourth best in the league. Cowboys are at 309 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: fifty one. They're ranked seventh, and when the Cowboys played 310 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: them before, Cowboys with thirty three. Cowboys only scored a 311 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: touchdown on one of the three times that they were 312 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: in the red zone. One time ended up an interception. 313 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: I like it at all. I think you're at and hey, 314 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: Blake Jarwin, do it again please because this could be 315 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: a big week for it. It's gonna be interesting. You know, 316 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett loves to say at the Seahawk they run 317 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's Chris for yards scheme. It's the 318 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: cover three scheme that has taken the league by storm 319 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: because it's been so popular in Seattle. Uh, you know, 320 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: they're they're famous for you like, we're just gonna play 321 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: our guy. We're gonna play man up. You know, we're 322 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: not gonna follow you all over the place. Although I'll 323 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: be interested to see if that happens this week. Because 324 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: Shaquille Griffin can play all over the field, did they 325 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: try to shadow him with Amari Cooper because the rest 326 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: of their dbs are banged up? Trays as he is 327 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: as well? Yeah, Tray well, yeah, he hasn't practiced yet. 328 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: Trey Flowers is their other corner, Like they don't they 329 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: don't have the corner tandem that they're used to having. 330 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: I don't think like the strength of this secondary is 331 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: their safeties as certain. McDougall's having a great season. Obviously 332 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: when Earl was there it was better. But so I 333 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: wonder if they try to adjust that to recognize the 334 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: fact that they are injured, that maybe they can't just 335 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: play their man straight up the way they would prefer. Also, 336 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: you bring kJ right back into this thing with um 337 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: with Bobby Wagner, and now you've got two really good 338 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: linebacker who can do a little bit of everything. It's 339 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: obviously gonna make things tough in the running game, but 340 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: the short passing game too. You know, you try to 341 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: check down, which Dak loves to do with Zeke, you're 342 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: probably gonna have two guys right there. And same thing 343 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: for the tight ends. I hope Blake Jarwin can find 344 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: some similar success because I think it's going to be 345 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: tougher against these guys. I would think, though, that this 346 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense with Amari Cooper is better suited to be 347 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: able to defeat a single safety high type team where 348 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 1: the corners aren't across the board significantly better, because one 349 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 1: thing we know about this offense over the last month 350 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: two months of the season is in in an offense 351 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: that's starting to find its way when it comes to 352 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 1: hitting some of those deep balls downfield. When you got 353 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 1: a single man downfield and there's one safety back, he's 354 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: having to choose which side he's gonna go to, and 355 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 1: he's gonna have to make the right read on the 356 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 1: quarterback to be able to know where he's going. I 357 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 1: think you can the Cowboys will have some opportunities. I 358 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: also like the opportunity of Amari Cooper facing man a lot. 359 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: If he's facing man coverage, I don't care who it is, 360 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 1: even if it's it's Griffin. I think that he is 361 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: good enough where he's gonna make some plays. I think 362 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 1: they're much better suited to take advantage of that than 363 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: they were the first time. Around one hundred percent and 364 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: that's straight up. I mean, like that's why they couldn't 365 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: do anything like they could not they could not beat 366 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: what the Seahawks wanted to do. They could not force 367 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 1: them to adjust, which is one why I wonder, Okay, 368 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: how are the Seahawks going to handle this or they 369 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: really they're gonna trust themselves to do that against Cooper, 370 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: maybe they will play more zone than we're you're used 371 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: to seeing. And on top of that, the other thing, 372 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I don't really care, 373 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: because that's why you brought Amari Cooper here in the 374 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: first places. He's gonna have to make some place. This 375 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: is I don't think. I don't think you can win 376 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 1: this game with Amari Cooper having four catches for thirty yards. 377 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,719 Speaker 1: And really, I mean unless somebody else really steps up, 378 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: really steps up, though, Like, no, I don't think. I mean, 379 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: I think the way I look at that is if 380 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: a Marie Cooper forces Seattle to pay more attention to him, 381 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: that creates opportunities for other guys. That's how you would 382 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,640 Speaker 1: win it. But it has to be those other guys 383 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: stepping up. Yeah, I think it has to be other 384 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: guys stepping up. If he doesn't. Somebody is gonna have 385 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: to step up and do something greater than what they 386 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: typically do. It could be a Maria. But if they 387 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: say we're gonna take Amar away, somebody else is gonna 388 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: have to be the benefactor of that. And guess my point, 389 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 1: you're right, But I don't trust Blake Jarwin or Michael 390 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: Gallop to Cole or Cole to blow up against this 391 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: team on this stage. Like I mean, that's one thing 392 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: against the Giants. Yeah, I haven't seen it on a 393 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 1: consistent enough basis. I don't think you can take away 394 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: Zeke and Mary Cooper. And if you do, then you're 395 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: not a good team, that's the hope. You're just not 396 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: a good offense. You're not. You don't have a good coordinator, 397 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: you don't have a good quarterback, you don't have a 398 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: good system. If you're if you get to the playoffs 399 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: and you allow a team to take away your running 400 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: game and your best receiver, especially when they're when they're 401 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: fourth overall picks and there and they're supposed to be 402 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: catalytic players like they are, I would agree with that. 403 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: I don't think that you can take away both. I 404 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: will say this though, that's that would be if you're 405 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: a Seattle, that would be the beauty of playing single 406 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: safety high. That means you got that extra safety down 407 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 1: in the box that you can use to be able 408 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: to help against the run, and you can shade your 409 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: safety the safety that's deep, you can shade him till 410 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 1: Maury's side to hopefully keep him in check. That's my 411 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: point though. If you do that, then it's up to 412 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: the Cowboys to figure out. Now, if they're gonna play 413 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: that way, how much can Beasley can get single? How 414 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: much can Cooper beat you in man coverage? How much 415 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: can dact because they're playing man coverage now, take some 416 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 1: of those runs because everybody is preoccupied with the guy 417 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: that they're holding, that they're trying to that they're trying 418 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: to keep up with. How much can he turn that 419 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 1: into a fifteen twenty yard rundown feel scramble? Right? That's 420 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: where I think that again, if the Cowboys, if everything 421 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,199 Speaker 1: works out for the Cowboys playing against this kind of defense, 422 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 1: I think they can actually do something this type of defense. 423 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: I'm I'm fascinated to see how this running battle shakes out, 424 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: because we already I mean, Wagner's Wagner and kJ writes back, 425 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: and he appears to be playing like his old self. 426 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,719 Speaker 1: And we talked about their defensive line. It seems like 427 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: they should be well equipped to limit the Dallas run game, 428 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: but they are given up one hundred and thirteen yards 429 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: per game, which is so so And we've already seen 430 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: Zeke actually like he had a really good day against 431 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: this team if he doesn't turn the ball over, if 432 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: he doesn't step out of bounds. It was a mentally 433 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: weird day for him. Like, yeah, it just seemed like 434 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: he was off. That it was a game unlike any 435 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: we've ever seen from him before, Like he just he 436 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: put balls on the deck way like twice as often 437 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: as he normally does. He stepped out of bounds on 438 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: what would have been a touchdown. I've completely forgot about 439 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: that until we started getting into this thing this week. That, yeah, 440 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: it was weird. I think after that game, Nick phrased 441 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 1: it as like he played his best game in his 442 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 1: worst game at the same time. Yeah, like it was 443 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: one of his worst games as a pro, in which 444 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: he also really had a nice outing. So we've seen 445 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: him do it before, can you do it again? I mean, 446 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 1: and it's simplistic legs are rested up. It all. It 447 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: all comes down to that for me. All right, Look, 448 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: but you know dak is averaging two hundred and seventy 449 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: four yards per game since Cooper got here to seventy 450 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 1: four to seventy four. Receiver makes a difference, not bad, right, 451 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 1: but the receiver matters, the catcher matters. I don't think 452 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: he's throwing. He's not throwing the stop. He's not throwing 453 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: the Cowboys to a win on this defense, I don't think. 454 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: And they're not. They're not this jugger not But they've 455 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 1: been here before and like a lot of those guys 456 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 1: are gone, but a lot of them are still here. 457 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: I mean, Wagner and Wright were there for the whole thing, 458 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,880 Speaker 1: like they get it, So I think Seek needs to 459 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: be there. All right, We're gonna take our first break 460 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: when we come back. I have a list of things 461 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: that happened in that game, just observations from the first game. 462 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 1: And what I want to do is I'm gonna go 463 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: through the list, and I want you guys to tell 464 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 1: me number one, if you think they will be the 465 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 1: same or different, and how much you think they matter. 466 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that when we come right, back.

I'm gonna go through a 520 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: list of observations from the first matchup in Week three, 521 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: verses the Cowboys versus and the Seahawks, and some of 522 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 1: them it's pretty apparent there will be a difference. But 523 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: I want you to tell me, if there is a difference, 524 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:40,959 Speaker 1: how much you think that difference will matter, or if 525 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: it's not going to be a difference, and so you 526 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: don't think it's gonna make much of a difference, all right, 527 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 1: So let's start with the first one. In that game, 528 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: as Dave alluded to, the passing game for the Cowboys 529 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: was very It was really not that good. Of course, 530 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper was not a part of the team. Prescott 531 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: went nineteen to thirty four, fifty six percent completion rate, 532 00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty eight yards, one touchdown, twoptions, and 533 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: then a fifty four point five quarterback rating. And by 534 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: the way, that touchdown was a fricking handle. It was 535 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: basically what it was was It was a it was 536 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: what Actually one of our callers mentioned this a couple 537 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 1: of weeks ago. He talked about how in the red zone, 538 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 1: maybe the Cowboys should think about a shovel pass to Tavon. 539 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,679 Speaker 1: That's exactly what it was in that game. That was 540 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 1: their only touchdown was a shovel pass to Tavon. I 541 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 1: think they were at the three, I want to say, 542 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: and he gets into the end zone. Exactly what Tavon 543 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 1: could theoretically bring to this offense, not what he has 544 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,159 Speaker 1: brought to this offense. It's actually the only touchdown the 545 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys have scored against the Seattle Seahawks in the 546 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: last three meetings. Wow, so you don't know that that's 547 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 1: they did not score a touchdown last year? Field goal fest, 548 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 1: Dez drop fest, ugly, ugly, ugly, and then twenty fifteen 549 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: four field goals, Greg Hardy picked off Russell Wilson. Terrible, 550 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,959 Speaker 1: terrible game. So much so, how much of a difference 551 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: do you think of Marii Cooper makes in this game? 552 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: A big difference. I mean, go, I'm looking at the 553 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,479 Speaker 1: snap count for the receivers in the first game, and 554 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Alan Hearns had forty one snaps. Last week 555 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: he only had ten against the Giants. And I did 556 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: have a nice catch, but only you know, and Deontay 557 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: Thompson remember him twenty eight, Terrence Williams ten and guys 558 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 1: that aren't doing anything. They're not playing any kind of football. 559 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: Hearns sort of is. But but those three guys right there, 560 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 1: he's not playing. He had ten snaps. I'm just saying, 561 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: that's how big difference it is, Michael gall that's from 562 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: the standpoint of how they they literally they have shrunk 563 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: this this rotation at the wide receiver not trying, yeah, 564 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: exactly excitements, but love that Kurt is a drop. They 565 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: so literally they started the season with receivers that they 566 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: have gotten rid of or down literally you know, quite literally, 567 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,679 Speaker 1: like they were like, we can these guys can start, 568 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: and then by week six it was like these guys 569 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: can't start right, And so that's where guys don't even 570 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: need to be here, that's where that's where we are in. 571 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: So I think that Cooper not only is a difference 572 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: maker on offense, we've seen that. I think Michael Gallup 573 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 1: is a different receiver as well. I think the combination 574 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: of those two guys and the it's a little mensition, 575 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,439 Speaker 1: a subtraction of one Earl Thomas, it makes that whole 576 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: passing game going on the list, Oh, I think it 577 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: will make. It makes a difference because he is a 578 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 1: wide receiver that can definitely get open or it's so 579 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: good that he demands double teams that should theoretically help 580 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: other guys get open, and it's just it's Earl Thomas 581 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: not being on the team that actually on the list. Okay, no, 582 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: I just said that Cooper just solidified the whole wide 583 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: receiver position. And like they mentioned just now, back then, 584 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: that's when the Cowboys still had a whole mess with 585 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: the wide receiver. They don't know what that we're doing, 586 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: just rotating everyone now, and that that was a problem 587 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: because you don't really by not giving so many opportunities 588 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: to one guy, they don't really have the chance to 589 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: kind of light up and get going. So it changes 590 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: everything not only for Cooper, but for the other white 591 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: receivers as well. Okay, Zolan else see the name or 592 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: hear the name Cooper and just think Cooper Rush. I 593 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: used to not anymore. I need to like even a 594 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: little bit Jonathan Cooper. That's who I think of. No, 595 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: I like Cooper, Yeah, from Amari Cooper. I mean, you 596 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: don't walk through I got to catch a flight later 597 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: today and I'm going to walk through DFW Airport and 598 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: there's not gonna be a ton of Cooper Rush jersey's 599 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: hanging in the store. So there's gonna be a ton 600 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: of Amari Cooper jerseys. Not my point. I'm not saying 601 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: who's more significant. I'm just saying I still think of 602 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: when I hear Cooper. I don't think of Amari guy 603 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: because I say it most of the time, you just 604 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: say it as one am Mark Cooper, Mark Cooper. But 605 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: I just think Cooper. I'm thinking Cooper Rush or Jonathan Cooper, 606 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: Winnie Cooper, Mari Cooper, I'mari Cooper. So Nick, you did 607 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 1: mention Earl Thomas, So let's flip over to Earl Thomas. 608 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: And yes, obviously Earl Thomas makes a difference. My question 609 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: would be, though, and goes back to what Dave was 610 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: saying earlier in the show, the secondary is not the 611 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: strength of this defense. They've been doing it this year 612 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: mainly with the fact that they have a good pass rush, 613 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: They've got good guys down in the strenches, and their 614 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: linebackers are really good. That being said, how much is 615 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: a difference does he make in a defense where that's 616 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: not really the best of what? Okay, here's what. To me, 617 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: the difference will be that, for some reason is extremely 618 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: lucky with defensive backs and linebackers who can't catch his passes. 619 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: I mean, there should have been at least four or 620 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 1: five more interceptions, three or four more pick sixes this 621 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: year because he's thrown it right to people bad reads 622 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 1: and he's been lucky in the sense that they've dropped 623 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: it and Earl Thomas didn't. Earl Thomas caught one off 624 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: a shoelace Earl Thomas caught ball that was deflected four 625 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: times by Jarwin, So he's not there to catch those 626 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: passes which other people to not catch. Which it is 627 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 1: a valid question. I'm not trying to make fun of you, Derek, 628 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: but like, yeah, it's gonna make a difference that a 629 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: generational talent is not in Seattle's secondary. Yes, I think 630 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: that's fair to say. My question, though, was how much 631 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: of a difference? Is this a situation where do you 632 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: think it Well, I'm just saying, do you think that 633 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: this is a defense that goes from being one that 634 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: you just say, hey, I don't know that we can 635 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: really pass very effect can expect to pass effectively against 636 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: with him back there to one that I think we 637 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 1: got opportunities when without him. That's my point, how much 638 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 1: of a difference. I know that he makes a difference. 639 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: We all agree with it, like we all agree that 640 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: he's that he makes a difference for their team, But 641 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: their defense has played well without him most of the year. 642 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: That's no, and there's still a good defense. And that 643 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: was the point I made, is all right, Dak Prescott 644 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: is not passing them to a victory. I don't think 645 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: like you're gonna need balance, You're gonna need the run game. 646 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: So a difference, but just you know, they they have 647 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: not fallen apart without him, but still a difference. Okay, 648 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,959 Speaker 1: let's move on. Let's talk about Zeke Elliott. That in 649 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: that game, they obviously ran the ball signific fickantly well. 650 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 1: Zeke had sixteen karas f one hundred and twenty seven 651 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: yard seven point nine average, did have the mistakes. Do 652 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,959 Speaker 1: you think that we will see a different za, different 653 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: Zeke this week? Do you think that with the addition 654 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: of a guy like kJ Wright, maybe the running game 655 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 1: isn't as effective as it was when they were in Seattle. 656 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: I think you've got a better chance to have a 657 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: more focused Ezekiel Elliott than he was in that game. 658 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: And we're not talking like he was you know, space 659 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: Mountain here. I mean just he's stepped his foot, stepped 660 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,959 Speaker 1: out of bounds. I mean, you know that he doesn't 661 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: normally make a play like that, and he normally doesn't 662 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: fumble either. You know, he had a chance to score 663 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: another field goal or touchdown there on that drive. So 664 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: I think he will just be a better player than 665 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: he was, and he was pretty good that day. I 666 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: agree with you. The combination of probably Connor Williams at 667 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 1: left guard and then kJ Wright also being there worries me. 668 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: It definitely worries me. And that's why I think it's 669 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: gonna be. I think that's like the story of the game. 670 00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: And Connor, I mean, was playing in that game. And 671 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: again I'm all for Suafila trying to that's a really 672 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: good will to fread this thing out and maybe play. 673 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: But I know you're right, Connor was in there. They 674 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: ran for one hundred and twenty seven yards. I think 675 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: he's better. Yeah, I would hope. I would hope every 676 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: player is better in Week eighteen than they were in 677 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: Week three, especially a rookie. Um that's it's still dead. 678 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 1: That's gonna be the other thing too, Remember that was 679 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 1: that up until Indy. That was their biggest deficit of 680 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: the season. And your running back's not going to factor 681 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 1: as much in the fourth quarter when you're down twenty 682 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: four to six. So here's the thing. Hopefully they don't 683 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: let that happen and he can have a role in 684 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: the second half. Sick almost always has a good game. 685 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 1: Like some are more noticeable than others. Some it's just 686 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: one of those that they stop him in a few yards, 687 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: but then at the end of the game, those yards 688 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: just all add up and he's still a good game 689 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: for Szik So as far as him and especially after 690 00:33:56,120 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: being rested and he the energy there, the focus is there, 691 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: So I have no doubt that he's gonna be good 692 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: and he's gonna be able to do something for you, 693 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: whatever that is. He's gonna do something in like twenty 694 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,760 Speaker 1: it's a great point in twenty nine NFL cities. Eighty 695 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: five yards is like at a boy way to go 696 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: and here Pittsburgh when Bell is there and probably La 697 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: it's like eighty five that's all you had. Yeah, you 698 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: didn't get a hundred day. Yeah, yeah, all right, it's 699 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:28,800 Speaker 1: like our final break. We'll come back. I have about 700 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,399 Speaker 1: four other things that were observations from the original well 701 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,839 Speaker 1: the first meeting between these teams this year. We'll talk 702 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: about those when we come back. This is Dallas Cowboys 703 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: dot Com Radio.

Okay, interesting neighborhood is all right, let's 790 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,399 Speaker 1: get back into this. I had some more observations from 791 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: the game. I want you guys to tell me how 792 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 1: much of a difference or how much you think they 793 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 1: will be different and how much of a difference they 794 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 1: would make in this game. Zeke in that game only 795 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: had three catches for eleven yards and one thing that 796 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,719 Speaker 1: you would notice on the second half of the year, 797 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: Cowboys have been very much have been a lot more 798 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 1: intentional about getting him involved in the passing game. Do 799 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:35,880 Speaker 1: you think that will be a difference this week? And 800 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 1: how much of a difference does it make in the 801 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys being able to win? Well, he was very involved. 802 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,799 Speaker 1: He actually could have had a lot more involvement there 803 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: if you wouldn't have stepped out of bounds. That they 804 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 1: actually had eight targets in that game. They just weren't 805 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 1: connecting for whatever, you know, what I'm gonna go look 806 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: at that if it's hard to think about now, the 807 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 1: dude basically has eighty catches. But like we talked about, 808 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: he was not part of the passing game. W he was, 809 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 1: it was one yard in front of the line of 810 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: scrimmage with his back turned. And for the record, I 811 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 1: still think they could utilize him more creatively as a 812 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 1: receiver down the field, but it's hard to argue with 813 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,360 Speaker 1: the results. Yeah, he's a checkdown machine, but he turns 814 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:18,799 Speaker 1: those checkdowns into four or six, eight, ten yards, And yeah, 815 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna I think it's definitely gonna be 816 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 1: a role because Dak is probably gonna have to check 817 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,399 Speaker 1: it down. He's gonna need safe places to throw the ball. 818 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,839 Speaker 1: The big boys have kind of lowered it down as 819 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 1: far as passing game and his involvement later in the season. No, no, 820 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: I'm about to give you a sat that you're not 821 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: gonna like, give me a stat hit me all right? 822 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,360 Speaker 1: Before Cooper got here, twenty five catches for Zeke. I 823 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 1: don't really have the targets here, but what twenty five 824 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 1: catches and then since then in the last eight games, 825 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,839 Speaker 1: fifty two catches, So doubles in the last and yeah, 826 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:55,839 Speaker 1: I mean down the stretch. These are the last eight 827 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: games just in catches five seven twelve six five seven 828 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 1: six four. That's all with Cooper there. So why does 829 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,879 Speaker 1: it feel like it's gone down? Though it doesn't to me, 830 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 1: actually using him a lot in the passing game, but 831 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 1: I don't know. To me felt like at the beginning 832 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 1: of the season they were using him a lot more. 833 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 1: Maybe there were more mistakes and maybe that's why I 834 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,959 Speaker 1: noticed it a lot more. Well, another theory I would 835 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: suggest is I think it's definitely fair to say he 836 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: made more big plays in the passing game in the 837 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 1: first half of the season. Detroit comes to mind. He 838 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 1: scored on a screen against who was who would that 839 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: have been? Touchdown? He had touchdown against Detroit, touchdown against 840 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 1: at at Philly, and a touchdown. These are catches you 841 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 1: touch at Philly and then New Orleans he caught. Yeah, 842 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 1: so well no, so that's not even completely true. It 843 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,279 Speaker 1: felt he had big plays. He hasn't made as many 844 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 1: big plays since Thanksgiving in my opinion, meaning like touchdowns 845 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 1: or thirty yard games. But that's but go look at Atlanta. 846 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:59,360 Speaker 1: I don't think he had a reception over nine yards 847 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: in that game. But he just was consistently there, consistently 848 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: moving the chains, and it might not be pretty, but 849 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 1: it's certainly important, Bill that you point out. I was 850 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: just pointing out that he had a thirty four yard 851 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: or against Atlanta, but I kind of wanted Dave to 852 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 1: just go with it. Yeah, oh, back down near the 853 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,879 Speaker 1: goal line, right either most of him. I remember, thirty 854 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,280 Speaker 1: four yard catch? How many? Yeah, it was a screen 855 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,320 Speaker 1: and he took it down into the red zone and 856 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: they probably didn't score if I did it because Beasley 857 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 1: dropped it right first drive of the game. Oh yeah. 858 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: How many catches did he have in that game? Seven 859 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 1: for seventy nine. Yeah, So that's what I'm saying, Like, 860 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:31,800 Speaker 1: that's what they were doing in the latter part of 861 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 1: the year when they were actually having a success in 862 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,319 Speaker 1: that little winning streak. I thought they got him very 863 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: much involved in the passing game and he was making 864 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,479 Speaker 1: a difference. And that's what I've been waiting for since 865 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 1: obviously really since the time that they drafted him, because 866 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 1: when they drafted him, that's one of the benefits that 867 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 1: actually I do well, I don't have his I don't 868 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 1: have his target tallies from September. But I know over 869 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 1: the second half of the or no month of December, 870 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 1: he's second behind Cooper on the team in targets. You 871 00:42:55,520 --> 00:43:02,360 Speaker 1: know who's third, Carlin Blake Darwin and targets, targets, targets. 872 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 1: How about that? You know what the apples Darwin's um. 873 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: Darwin's stats look a lot like Jason Witten's rookie year. 874 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 1: He caught thirty five passes his rookie year and I believe, 875 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 1: I believe twenty eight or of making a lot of 876 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: comparison between those two lately. Did he break his jaw 877 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:26,760 Speaker 1: at any point? Not yet? Oh God, Jarwin, not trying 878 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 1: to try. Jacket Jarwin? Is that world jacket jars? Oh 879 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 1: gold jack gold jacket Blake, We're there yet, stop it? 880 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:39,920 Speaker 1: Oh no, you can't compare Wit his Witten number one, 881 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 1: never had three touchdowns in the game, and he's never 882 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: one Player of the Week exactly. Yes, get out of here, 883 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:50,879 Speaker 1: just over here, Slandering, one of the greatest players. We're 884 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:52,360 Speaker 1: almost at being the show. But I did want to 885 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 1: at least get this one in obviously that last but 886 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 1: her why because I'm something that Jason did to him? 887 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:05,880 Speaker 1: I won't say it on He's just buy her her. 888 00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 1: We have see Actually, y'all have another show tomorrow. I don't. 889 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 1: That's why I'm like, we need to talk about the game. 890 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: But y'allre like now, no, no, no, I'll just I'll 891 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 1: text y'all my prediction tomorrow.

It's 895 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 1: this whole side of the table, the youths of today. 896 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 1: We're gonna go in the show tomorrow. We will get 897 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,280 Speaker 1: to that final question of how much the venue matters. 898 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 1: Last time they were in Seattle, it matters a lot. 899 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,399 Speaker 1: The Seahawks haven't beaten somebody with a winning record all 900 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 1: year on the road, Thanks Dave, Cowboys.
