In 0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:13.000 my opinion, this right here is the best football Friday 0:01:13.000 --> 0:01:15.080 of the year. And why is that? Bill? You can 0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:17.640 look right here on the tabletop as we've got an 0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:21.640 Oklahoma Suoner cap and we've got a Texas Longhorn cap. Yes, 0:01:21.680 --> 0:01:25.319 it's the Friday before the Red River Showdown. Explain to 0:01:25.360 --> 0:01:27.640 me why you have a Texas Longhorns cap. Did he 0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:34.840 lost a bet? NOA, yeah, it's right, it's not. Can 0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:36.720 you see that? Why will you spend money? We can 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:40.760 see it? Right? I did not spend money on it. 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:42.640 That Phil will tell you he filled up at a 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:45.039 gas station and got that free. Are you familiar with 0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:48.280 Derek Eagleton, Yeah, very much so, yes, so you can 0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:50.840 borrowed it. I didn't borrow No, I didn't borrow a hat. 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:54.040 But it's to gain favor with Derek Eagleton. How's that? 0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:57.240 Good luck? Good luck with that, good luck with that mess? 0:01:57.400 --> 0:01:59.720 Well and okay, right off the top. Then what I'll 0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:02.640 say is this. Okay, later in this show, I'll likely 0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:06.480 don this cap, and if the Longhorns win tomorrow next Friday, 0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:09.320 I will don that cap. How's that? I'm writing that down? 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:13.040 All right? There you go? All right, And so that's 0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:16.839 better than having a mohawk, huh it is? Yeah, No, 0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:18.880 we're not We're not doing that. We're not doing that. 0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:22.679 But anyway, I just love this football weekend every year. 0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:25.919 It's the it's the game that I circle. Being in 0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:28.760 ou Grad and having been born in Oklahoma, my home 0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:31.960 family went there. But I love I love the Longhorns too. 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:34.440 From the stamp my dad, my dad, who passed away 0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:37.960 fifteen years ago, said that you live in Texas, you 0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:40.960 gotta love the Longhorns. I'm sorry, Rob Phillips, you're at aggey, 0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:43.480 but that's that's what he passed down to me. But 0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:45.520 I got so many friends that are long horns. That's 0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:47.640 what I love about this weekend. We come together and 0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:49.280 it's yeah, And I know there are a lot of 0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:52.280 fans out there they look at Okay, there's a game 0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:54.560 that you circle. Maybe it's a rival Regan, maybe it's 0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:57.520 a redskin still, maybe it's the Eagles week with here 0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:00.840 the Eagles eggs, right, And so I just love that 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:04.080 about football. Yes, you know, you know I love it 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:06.880 every week, but there's certain weeks that are better than 0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:09.000 other weeks. Well, let's hope you love this week going 0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:11.440 up to New York. Right, it's and every week is 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:14.000 better if you win. Yeah, that's because we've learned the 0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:17.519 last here. It's an absolute must. So who was it? 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:22.280 Who was LSU's biggest rivalry? I think right now? Was 0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:24.880 there one like that when you're in school? There? Which 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:28.840 was it? Well, it's probably a University of Alabama. We 0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:32.480 played them pretty evenly. Now they've owned us. Uh. Florida 0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:34.280 was always a big one. Old Miss back in the 0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:37.120 day was really really kind of the hate one. That's 0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:39.280 a lot of hate going on there. But yeah, the 0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:42.200 Southeastern Conference has a lot of really good rivalries to 0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:44.040 begin with. I mean, you really, I can't put my 0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:47.080 finger on one that I felt like, but yeah, playing 0:03:47.200 --> 0:03:50.360 Florida was hard. Playing Alabama was hard. I mean, Florida 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:52.320 and LSU played this weekend, so we'll see how that 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:56.680 all turns out. Do you miss playing Kansas? Uh? Yeah, absolutely, 0:03:57.280 --> 0:04:03.560 especially do you miss playing Texas? Not really, schedule's hard enough. Well, 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:06.880 it's as far as you just talking about the rivalry 0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:10.280 where it's get your blood boiling. Yeah, for sure, for sure. 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:12.160 You know you love that game and one day it'll 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:15.880 be back, I think not now. I mean the back 0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:19.760 and forth was really good between the two schools. Everybody 0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:23.560 would try to one up the other. Um in a 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:26.479 quick aside, I can remember Missouri went there to play 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:30.360 a basketball game at Kansas, and you know, they got 0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:33.039 this tradition before the game where they kind of do 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:38.640 their little chant and Norm Stewart decided, the Missouri basketball 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:41.520 coach back then, decided that his team should only get 0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:44.680 booed once, so when they left the court and then 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:47.520 Jayhawks come back and it's dark and they start doing 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:50.440 the rock chalk Jayhawk Chant. He left him out on 0:04:50.480 --> 0:04:53.320 the court and you could hear the balls bouncing and 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:56.960 they were shooting in the dark. Just mess with them, 0:04:57.000 --> 0:04:59.359 all right? So how much does your blood boil for 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:03.160 the New York Jets on Sunday? The Cowboy blood better 0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:05.479 be boiling because they need to treat like I said 0:05:05.520 --> 0:05:07.120 earlier on the way, they need to treat this game 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:09.320 like it's the Patriots. Yeah. You absolutely you need to 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:11.320 find a way to go win this football game. And 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:15.000 I don't think it will be as easy as people think. 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:17.000 I was listening to Mickey on their radio this morning 0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:18.760 one oh five three. I thought he made some excellent 0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:22.240 points about with Sam Darnold playing, I tried to ask 0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:24.960 a question about Jamison Crowder. You know that could be 0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:29.960 a potential matchup problem he You know, Crowder wore out 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:33.479 the Buffalo Bill seventeen targets, fourteen receptions. Several of those 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:36.880 were four third down conversions in that game. The last 0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:40.080 thing the Cowboys need to have happen is that all 0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:42.160 of a sudden they get Mickey made a point two 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.919 about Bell. Lady on Bell worried about him catching the 0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:47.920 ball in the flat, making plays up the field, and 0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:51.760 then also Jamison Crowder working underneath. And Jason Garrett just 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:55.280 answered my question in a way of saying, Jameson Crowder 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:58.040 is a quarterback's best friend, you know, and the Cowboys 0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:01.440 have played against him before he was with the Washington Redskins. 0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:03.599 He still does some of the similar things that he 0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:07.320 didn't Washington. He's got quickness, he runs option routes, he's 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.960 got stop start quickness. There's all kinds of things that 0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:12.440 you have to deal And now we worry a little 0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:15.320 bit about Anthony Brown. And you know, the question was 0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:18.760 asked by Todd Archer, what about Jordan Lewis. Does Jordan 0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:22.960 Lewis figure in this game? And if Anthony Brown is 0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:25.760 not up to up to snuff with what needs to 0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:28.480 be done against Jamison crowdery, I wouldn't be surprised if 0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:31.080 they put Jordan Lewis out there and let him play, 0:06:31.080 --> 0:06:35.440 because Anthy Brown is susceptible to penalties, holdings, things like that. 0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:38.000 So this is a this is a game that will 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:40.200 have a little bit more difficulty to it because of 0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:44.000 the quarterback situation. Again, Mickey pointed out very accurately this 0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:47.200 morning that their offensive line is a problem and If 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:51.719 the Cowboys don't take advantage of that and get enough 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:54.400 pressure and force this issue a little bit more and 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:57.400 get you know, get that squared away, there's going to 0:06:57.440 --> 0:06:59.880 be problems. But he also again, Mickey, I'm listening to 0:06:59.880 --> 0:07:03.160 your whole broadcast. I think you're absolutely right. Mickey also said, hey, 0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:05.719 go out there and get a lead, find a way, 0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:08.000 you know, get a lead so you can run the football. 0:07:08.120 --> 0:07:09.840 Get a lead so you can play some offense. You 0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:12.520 could show some balance and not be so one dimensional. 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:15.440 So they only a great point on Jamiston Crowder when 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:18.200 you look back at his game by game this year. Yeah, 0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.880 and he had fourteen catches for ninety nine yards, which, 0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:22.960 by the way, seven yards at catch in the one 0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:26.480 game that Darnold started, and in the other three games 0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:30.640 four catches against Cleveland, two against New England, two against Philadelphia. 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:33.120 Right right, And then the thing I forgot to mention 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:34.880 is all you had to do is watch the first 0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:37.520 half of the game last night, Right, New England's supposed 0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:39.880 to run the Giants right out of their own stadium, 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:43.160 and it's twenty one fourteen at halftime, and they were lucky. 0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:45.640 It was twenty one fourteen at halftime. Because they got 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:49.240 a they didn't even block the punt, hit his own 0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:51.240 guy in the back with the punt, and then they 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:53.840 pick it up and run for a touchdown. Otherwise it's 0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:57.080 fourteen fourteen at halftime, and you had a hard time 0:07:57.480 --> 0:08:00.800 knowing who was playing for the Giants on offense. Yeah, 0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:06.200 including running back, the Hilloman, the wide receivers that they 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.600 were wiped out yet tight and the yeah, and they're 0:08:09.600 --> 0:08:11.960 in the ball game, yeah, until we kind of faded 0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:14.040 in the second half. I think you gotta, yeah, you 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:16.280 gotta worry about a team that's got maybe a little 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:18.720 more juice with their with their quarterback coming back, because 0:08:18.760 --> 0:08:20.560 I think they probably feel like they're a better team 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:24.120 without him or with him, and with him, you know, 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:27.000 you probably can get Levion Bell a little bit more involved. 0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:28.720 If he's able to move the football through the air. 0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:30.360 They've got to protect him. I mean, you saw the 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:33.920 protection issues they've had without Darnold in the game. Um, 0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:36.360 but you know, run defense is going to be a 0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:38.520 huge factor here, no question. I know we've talked about 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:41.000 it all week and Chris ra Sharda addressed it. Not 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:44.480 only that it's important to stop Levion Bell and Cowboys 0:08:44.520 --> 0:08:47.240 have been screened a lot. Uh, and that's one thing 0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:50.160 he does really well, screen passes and off to point. 0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:53.520 But he said also, it's a copycat league, and we 0:08:53.600 --> 0:08:56.360 expect teams like the Jets to try to run similar 0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:58.560 plays against us, like the Packers did and like the 0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:00.839 Saints didn't. See if we can stop it, and that's 0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:04.080 going to be really key offensively. You mentioned trying to 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:06.560 get back on track, Dak said, to use the word hungry. 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:09.520 They're hungry, and I think they're probably a little ticked 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:11.880 off because I think they feel like they're moving the football. 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:15.160 It's just self inflicted stuff that's really stopping them. I mean, 0:09:15.240 --> 0:09:17.880 that first quarter really took him out of the game, 0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:20.040 and it's it's it was pretty much all on them 0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:23.040 to a large degree. They're moving the football to the 0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:25.760 point that they are the number one ranked offense in 0:09:25.800 --> 0:09:28.960 the National Football League in terms of total yards. How 0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:31.319 about that? And then and you find yourself down thirty 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:35.640 one three, Yeah, in the second best offensive production of 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:37.720 the year in that game as far as total yards. 0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:39.679 As it turns out, you know what's worse than that? 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:42.840 What's it? They gave up thirty four points of the 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:46.320 Packers and they have the sixth rank total defense. How 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:53.400 about that? The great defense? Right? No, yeah, six. They're 0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:55.720 one of two teams in the league that have a 0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:58.400 top ten in both and that's why they're San Francisco 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.520 is the other one, and they're undefeated. That's why they're 0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:02.840 ticked off too, because they feel like we're a good defense. 0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:05.320 We had a bad game, bad game against the Packers, 0:10:05.360 --> 0:10:07.679 for sure. All right. We're off to a good start 0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:10.440 though here on Talking Cowboys and when we come back 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:13.960 who's going to actually play in this game on Sunday 0:10:14.040 --> 0:11:23.160 against the New York Jets.

And wow, this 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:25.439 is a whole long worn group I think coming through 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:28.120 here for you. But yeah, that's exactly right, all right, 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.640 who's gonna yeah? No, no down horn? Oh there's a 0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:35.240 sooner coming through all right? Um, who's gonna play in 0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:37.280 this game Sunday? What do you think? What do you 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:39.240 think about Tyring? You like in that Tyron Smith plan. 0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:42.200 I still think he's gonna He's gonna play. They're gonna 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:44.439 he said he'd work out on the side today. So 0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:47.320 that's another in a little bit of an improvement. And 0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:50.040 I think all along the plan was to get him 0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:53.200 to do something on Friday and and then hopefully it 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:55.720 goes well and he plays on Sunday. Lay All Cownds 0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:59.200 is out and there's been more movement activity from Tyring, 0:12:59.280 --> 0:13:01.959 at least not practicing but at least kind of doing 0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:04.360 stuff on the side than Lyell this week. So I 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:08.360 think I think they're they're clearly a week or two 0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:11.720 away with with with college. But yeah, they'll know a 0:13:11.760 --> 0:13:14.920 lot about Smith. I'm agreed with Mickey. I think that 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:17.079 we will see Smith, but you know, we've we've got 0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:19.880 till twelve forty five today, that's when practice will end, 0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:23.040 and they'll probably know a lot more about his situation 0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:25.320 and how he's moving around and how he feels. And 0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:27.320 you know, they have another day. You know, when they 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:29.360 get to the hotel. They have treatments that they do 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:32.520 at the hotel as well, so he'll continue to get 0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:35.400 to as much as much medical attention as he can 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:37.360 with the hope of playing. I mean, I feel like 0:13:37.440 --> 0:13:40.680 though having him back in there would be outstanding for 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:44.440 Dak's mental state as far as no one Okay, on 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:46.679 that backside over there, I don't have to worry about that. 0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:48.880 I can stand here and make these throws and allow 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:52.800 these receivers to get open a little bit more. So, Yeah, 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:55.319 I think that if he plays, it's a it's a 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:57.680 it's a good thing all around for everybody. Okay, So, 0:13:57.960 --> 0:14:01.120 of course, last week when Smith was out, Collins was out, 0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:03.120 and you had Cam Fleming at left tackle, you had 0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:06.240 Brandon Knight at right tackle, and so how are they 0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:09.520 handling it this week in practice? Now with the possibility 0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:12.080 that Tyrn Smith is back at left tackle, who's going 0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:14.160 to play at right tackle? I think that's where they 0:14:14.160 --> 0:14:17.280 would go back with with Fleming. Fleming is what they 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:20.320 call it their swing tackle. So you know, Fleming gets 0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:23.160 enough work even when they're healthy. When it's Collins and 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:26.360 Smith in the lineup, Fleming will play both sides. He'll 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:28.280 play the right side and then he'll switch over and 0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:30.080 play the left side. And they do that with all 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:33.560 their players, you know, with the exception Joe Looney gets 0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:36.240 all it gets majority of his snaps at center, but 0:14:36.600 --> 0:14:39.480 then you got guys like uh with Adam Redman will 0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:42.240 play center and play guard as they work through things. 0:14:42.240 --> 0:14:45.720 So yeah, this will be if if Smith comes back, 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:47.480 then Cam Fleming will be on the right side, and 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:52.520 then that means that that means that that night Brandon 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:55.160 Knight becomes the swing tackle in the game. So do 0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:57.680 you do you think that Cam got or is getting 0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:00.480 reps this week at right tackle as well as left tackle. 0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:03.360 I don't not believe. So no, it's and so that's 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:06.720 not necessary. Really, he that's that's entitled, that's what they 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:10.280 call him. He's had but he does get worked during 0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:12.600 the week. He just has not got work this week 0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:15.760 and then last week because he was going to make 0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:21.280 the start at left tackle. So from a philosophical standpoint, 0:15:21.440 --> 0:15:23.880 is it easier to protect your right tackle than it 0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:27.080 is the left tackle? Yeah, it is because you're right handed. 0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:29.680 You're right handed, and you could set your formation that 0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:33.080 way too, you know. With the I feel like though 0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:36.160 that we're going to see some twelve personnel in this game, 0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:39.560 even even if Smith plays, but it might be to 0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:42.080 what Mickey's point is, put it on the right side 0:15:42.080 --> 0:15:45.360 over there and then have Witten and Jarwin with Witton 0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:48.520 being the blocker and then Jarwin being the downfield player. 0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:51.880 Keep an eye on that because I tried that last week, right, 0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:53.920 and then they had to get out of it because 0:15:53.920 --> 0:15:56.840 they fell behind so quickly, right when if you look 0:15:56.880 --> 0:15:59.080 at those first couple of possessions, it was a lot 0:15:59.120 --> 0:16:02.640 of too tight end yep yep, yep. Absolutely. That's interesting 0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:05.840 because we do a show special edition that airs on 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:08.560 CBS eleven and Dallas Fort Worth at eleven o'clock on 0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:12.280 Saturday nights. Rick Goslin's big thing on that show this 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:17.080 last week was on the heels of the shot down 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:19.760 the seamed to Blake Jarwin, the thirty five yard play. 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:23.640 It's the Saints is let's see more Blake Jarwin. And 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:26.560 there were no targets of Blake Jarwin last week. That's 0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:29.000 one of the main reasons why is they fell behind. 0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:31.240 They had to get out of the twelve personnel, I guess. 0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:33.440 But you can also take Witton off the field and 0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:35.920 put Jarwin in there. Yea, and they did something they 0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:39.640 did the fourth quarter sud Yeah. But so what do 0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:43.080 y'all think about Jarwin more in the passage? I have 0:16:43.200 --> 0:16:46.200 no problem with Jarwin being on the field and no 0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:49.200 no offense to Jason Witten, you know, because there's been 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:51.720 some times where Jason Witton has run some really good routes. 0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:53.480 We got an out route the other day that he 0:16:53.560 --> 0:16:55.280 caught on the edge and got his feet down and 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:58.200 stuff like that. But if you talk about down down 0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:01.520 the field, the seam routes, things like that, that's just 0:17:01.560 --> 0:17:04.720 a better throw for Jarwin. That's just a better He 0:17:04.800 --> 0:17:06.920 has a feel for how to run that route, how 0:17:06.920 --> 0:17:09.800 to avoid linebackers, how to run through the safeties, and 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:11.840 then come up with the reception a little bit better 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.720 adjustment down the field, you know, with the body the 0:17:14.760 --> 0:17:19.040 way he plays. So yeah, I'm all for allowing him 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:21.760 to have more of those opportunities. And if it means 0:17:21.760 --> 0:17:23.920 that Jason Witten has to stand next to me and 0:17:23.960 --> 0:17:26.720 watch him catch that football, I think Jason wit would 0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:28.399 be okay with that as long as they have the 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:30.600 production of getting the plays out of it. Yeah, Jason 0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:33.040 hasn't dominated the snaps. I know people thought that might 0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:36.040 happen this year. I think Blake had a little bit 0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:38.360 of a foot issue coming out of preseason, so they 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:40.880 limited his snaps early. He's been getting maybe twenty five 0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:43.399 snaps a game something like that. Maybe it increases. You 0:17:43.440 --> 0:17:45.119 mentioned that thirty five yard catch that he had a 0:17:45.160 --> 0:17:47.760 couple of games ago. That's him on a linebacker and 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:50.280 that's a bad matchup given the fact that he can 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:52.960 get up the field for a man his size. Another 0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:54.359 thing to keep an eye on for this game is 0:17:54.440 --> 0:17:57.480 Randall Cobb because he's got his back tightened up on 0:17:57.560 --> 0:18:00.400 him on Thursday, sounds like according to Jay, and he's 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:02.879 going to be with or Garrett will be limited at 0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:05.480 best today. Maybe they're just trying to manage him, get 0:18:05.560 --> 0:18:07.560 him to the game, but it may be an all 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:09.719 hands on deck thing where here's a guy that can 0:18:09.720 --> 0:18:11.600 get up the field and make plays for you if 0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:13.280 Cobb's limited in the game or if you can't go. 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:15.320 You also have to think about what the tight ends 0:18:15.359 --> 0:18:19.480 going against Jamal Adams. That's that's the that's the caveat 0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:22.520 that you go with here is that? Okay, how effective 0:18:22.560 --> 0:18:25.480 candidate tight ends be If Jamal Adams, who's one of 0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:28.840 the better cover safeties in this league. You know, he's physical, 0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:31.800 he knows how to play the ball, he can create turnovers. 0:18:31.800 --> 0:18:33.760 Even if you catch the ball, he's going to make 0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:36.680 contested plays on you. So how much is the tight 0:18:36.760 --> 0:18:38.560 ends really going to be a factor in this game? 0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:41.080 I think a lot of it depends on Jamal Adams 0:18:41.080 --> 0:18:43.000 and what he's able to do in this game and 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:44.919 next sep when I want to get more into Jamal 0:18:44.960 --> 0:18:47.919 Adams and some other guys on that Jets defense as 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:51.440 far as Antoine woods goes, who are real quick is 0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:53.960 full yesterday? Yeah, you know that tight end thing ends 0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:57.480 up being matchups yeah, like who you playing against? You know, 0:18:57.520 --> 0:19:00.119 it's the same thing with Tony Pollard. I think, who 0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:03.280 are you playing against? Can he take advantage of their linebackers? 0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:05.880 However they play it? And there's some games like this one. 0:19:06.119 --> 0:19:09.119 Maybe not with Adams. I was a little surprised so 0:19:09.200 --> 0:19:12.960 far the tight end breakup. It's been like this. Whitton's 0:19:13.000 --> 0:19:16.120 got seventy one percent of the snaps and Jarwin's got 0:19:16.160 --> 0:19:19.040 thirty six point eight, So thirty seven percent. I thought 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:21.760 it would be a little closer to fifty fifty. It's 0:19:21.760 --> 0:19:25.400 not ninety nine like some people. Just he's never come 0:19:25.440 --> 0:19:27.280 off the field. But yeah, you know, maybe maybe it 0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:29.439 evens out a little bit. As we go, all right, 0:19:29.560 --> 0:19:32.360 and as we go here on talking Cowboys, we turn 0:19:32.400 --> 0:19:34.960 our attention to those New York Jets, and who do 0:19:35.119 --> 0:19:38.360 the Cowboys need to be concerned about, both on offense 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:46.760 and defense.
