Speaker 1: The following. He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot
Speaker 1: Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club Cowboys. This he's
Speaker 1: Talking Cowboys training live from the Dallas Cowboys World head
Speaker 1: Horse at the Star in Frisco. Elliot flowing to the
Speaker 1: list and now your hosts Isaiah Stanback, heck My Harrison,
Speaker 1: Rob Phillips, and Kyle Yeoman's it is a sayer with
Speaker 1: your chest Friday here on Talking Cowboys. It is Chiefs Week,
Speaker 1: Cowboys Chiefs. It is week eleven of the NFL season,
Speaker 1: and we've got one more show to lay it all
Speaker 1: out on the table. But because we have a dandy
Speaker 1: of a matchup this weekend, We've previewed the offense ve
Speaker 1: defense the last two days and we are going to
Speaker 1: hit it hard today. Oh heck My Harris should call
Speaker 1: it out the Texas A and M Swacker. No, I'm
Speaker 1: just saying I like that. It is. It's nice. Rob's
Speaker 1: got a gradient Texas A and M drive fit on. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Is it Columbia Yes, sponsor, Yeah, celeb the loss from
Speaker 1: last Saturday, you know, freaking bounce back here. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: got it. But you know what I want to ask you? Yeah?
Speaker 1: You made me wait a hold twenty four hours for it. Oh,
Speaker 1: go ahead and remind you. You don't have a guy,
Speaker 1: Go ahead and remind her. Come on, man, you with
Speaker 1: fifty fifty Oh Smith returning, So come on now, give
Speaker 1: me give me some percentages here, Crystal Ball, seventy percent?
Speaker 1: How about that seven I'm up to seventy. Now that's
Speaker 1: failing in grad school. Okay it's not. But but you
Speaker 1: know what school the week, the work week is like
Speaker 1: seventy seventy five percent, So like, yeah, they still got Saturday.
Speaker 1: But I think yeah, I think they feel good about
Speaker 1: it or optimistic. Still still working with Britt Brown? Is
Speaker 1: that you know? He was limited again, limited again. But
Speaker 1: Mike was on the fan this morning, Mike McCarthy and said,
Speaker 1: you know, they want to just get him three days
Speaker 1: of practice, get him in Saturday and then before they
Speaker 1: could cut him loose on Sunday, as what he said.
Speaker 1: So they didn't make you feel better, did it? No?
Speaker 1: I think that sounds pretty encouraging. We'll see a bit
Speaker 1: of anything. Think cakes, now, do you need him at
Speaker 1: one hundred percent or you okay with seven percent? Man,
Speaker 1: I need him if he's at seventy percent, I don't
Speaker 1: want him to play. No, I'm saying I'm seventy percent.
Speaker 1: I know, I'm just saying, would you take a seventy
Speaker 1: percent Tyrann No, No, No, not at this point in
Speaker 1: the year, because because then then you got to turn
Speaker 1: around four days later and play again. So they told you, hey,
Speaker 1: he won't be one hundred percent for three more weeks.
Speaker 1: You guys say, just hold off. That's tough because it's
Speaker 1: not like you look at this matchup and be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we can get through this. No, and you can't really
Speaker 1: say that about any of the next three matchups either. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Think of the edge rushers that the Raiders have coming
Speaker 1: off the edge there. They've got some guys. Yeah, it's that. Look,
Speaker 1: I know we need him. I want him to play.
Speaker 1: I know we're considerably better when he does play. Chris
Speaker 1: Jones obviously, Frank Clark, those guys are hunters. They will
Speaker 1: come after you. You don't want them to get a
Speaker 1: lick on Dak. So that's my that's my only concern.
Speaker 1: But also, like you said, I know, the next three
Speaker 1: games and the short amount of time that we have
Speaker 1: to play him is also a factor. I just, man,
Speaker 1: I'm just this whole high ankle sprain. If you have
Speaker 1: any experience with high ankle sprains, is it a sprainer
Speaker 1: or a bone spur? Spurs is what's kept him out?
Speaker 1: He had any irritating things though, Yeah, Like sprain goes away,
Speaker 1: bone spur doesn't go away unless you get surgery. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's the thing. It's more of a limitation deal, right,
Speaker 1: Just exposure too. I mean, just imagine having this bone
Speaker 1: sticking out and it keeps you rubbing against your tending
Speaker 1: like it's not going the bones not going anywhere. I
Speaker 1: don't want to imagine that. What I'm just saying, that's
Speaker 1: what he's dealing with, right, I mean, it's not going anywhere.
Speaker 1: They have to live. They literally have to go shave
Speaker 1: it down. I don't know the whole thing. I haven't
Speaker 1: seen as his his um, his emma. I haven't seen
Speaker 1: his dog x rays. But my understanding and guys of
Speaker 1: have bones spurs. It's literally a bone that's kind of
Speaker 1: sticking out like a little little flans there and it's
Speaker 1: just rubbing, and that's what irritates you. And ask what
Speaker 1: you know prevents you've been being at your best? Really
Speaker 1: quickly rob any other news and notes from yesterday that
Speaker 1: stuck out from practice number two of the week. Greg
Speaker 1: Zirline is off of COVID list. He was back at practice,
Speaker 1: so he's ready to go for Sunday. Is back. I
Speaker 1: think the only change from the injury report was well,
Speaker 1: Calvin Joseph had a personal matter, did not practice and
Speaker 1: the Sean Wright went from full to limited yesterday with
Speaker 1: the hamstream that he's dealing with, okay, and news and
Speaker 1: notes wise, Mike McCarthy was asked on the fan this morning,
Speaker 1: any lineup changes left guard? Can you confirm possibility that
Speaker 1: Connor McGovern might start over Connor Williams And he would
Speaker 1: not do that. And what he said was, I'll say
Speaker 1: this to some fact, he said, I'll say this, both
Speaker 1: Connors will play Sunday. We'll both Connors have been playing Sunday.
Speaker 1: So it depends on what the roles are. Obviously, Connor
Speaker 1: McGovern back in the slot. So what we're gonna have
Speaker 1: Connor Williams if we'll back now, now he's got to
Speaker 1: swap telback and telback. That's right. He did line up
Speaker 1: at telback Tebay. All right. We've got a special guest
Speaker 1: on the line. He is an aficionado of the NFL
Speaker 1: and all sorts of sports. TV Radio podcast host Trey Wingo,
Speaker 1: lfelong Cowboys fan, joins us here on Talking Cowboys. Trey,
Speaker 1: thanks for joining us. What's going on in your world? Well,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out how many connors will play, right,
Speaker 1: that's that's how many? And how often would you put
Speaker 1: Connor McGovern over Connor Williams at that spot? Are you
Speaker 1: you keeping Connor McGovern as that full back ache back option?
Speaker 1: I like, I think i'd like to see Connor McGovern
Speaker 1: Jenna get a shot there. You know, there's been a
Speaker 1: lot of shuffling on the line this year because of
Speaker 1: both things, and I think that i'd like to see
Speaker 1: mcgovernor you to get a look in there. To start. Now,
Speaker 1: you you have grown up a Cowboys fan. You've been
Speaker 1: a Cowboys fan for your entire life. And with that
Speaker 1: being said, you've seen some pretty monumental matchups throughout your
Speaker 1: fandom of the Dallas Cowboys. Where does this one rank
Speaker 1: in terms of regular season matchups leading into it? With
Speaker 1: the quarterback battle, the offense is going back and forth?
Speaker 1: Does this rank up toward the top of the list
Speaker 1: in some of those battles? Well, it can. I mean
Speaker 1: it should if you go by the numbers. I mean,
Speaker 1: let's just let's just run through a couple of things here.
Speaker 1: The Cowboys of the number one offense in the NFL,
Speaker 1: the Chiefs of the number two offense in the AFCs.
Speaker 1: So together they're averaging eight hundred and thirty nine yards
Speaker 1: combined of offensive per games. And if you're looking for
Speaker 1: a historical perspective on that, the last time we had
Speaker 1: a matchup with those kind of numbers this late in
Speaker 1: the season was the twenty eighteen Monday Night games between
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and the Rams, and you might remember that
Speaker 1: one and in fifty four fifty one, So like, if
Speaker 1: you're looking for historical perspectives on the kind of offense
Speaker 1: we've seen throughout the season and what to expect, that
Speaker 1: was the last time we had a matchup of this
Speaker 1: much offense going into a game this late in the season.
Speaker 1: And put it another way, Dak has twenty touchdown passes
Speaker 1: moms as twenty five. The last time we had a
Speaker 1: matchup with two quarterbacks with those number of touchdown passes
Speaker 1: this early in the season was that same Monday Night
Speaker 1: game between the Chiefs and the Ram that ended up
Speaker 1: fifty four fifty, so it has all the makings. So,
Speaker 1: as Michael Gallup said, get your popcorn ready for something,
Speaker 1: I think the scoreboard operator Arrowhead should prepare for carpal tunnel. Hatre,
Speaker 1: I've enjoyed your work for a long time. We were
Speaker 1: having a discussion yesterday about the Cowboys and how they're
Speaker 1: viewed nationally. Obviously you've covered this team in this league
Speaker 1: for a long time. How do you feel the league
Speaker 1: or the media covers the Cowboys or views the Cowboys?
Speaker 1: Because I think fans feel like maybe they're not getting
Speaker 1: enough due and the haters will say they're always getting
Speaker 1: pumped up too much. Like do you think it's somewhere
Speaker 1: in the middle with the way this team's being viewed
Speaker 1: this year so far at seven and two. Well, listen,
Speaker 1: I think all the haters love the Denver game, right.
Speaker 1: We told you man, they're fraud whatever. But those are
Speaker 1: just the haters. I mean, like, Cowboys have been arguably
Speaker 1: the most consistent team of football the start of the season.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's nice to see the Gregs or Lions
Speaker 1: off the COVID list. You might have needed to be
Speaker 1: on the COVID list. League one of the Cowboys would
Speaker 1: have won that game. Being honest about wanting this partick,
Speaker 1: I guess one of them was a fifty plush yarder.
Speaker 1: But if he makes the extra point, year of the
Speaker 1: field goals and then in that Week one win, Campa
Speaker 1: Bay doesn't need a field goal to win, they need
Speaker 1: a touchdown. That's completely different from dynamic. So the biggest
Speaker 1: change for me and the Cowboys this year has been
Speaker 1: their defense. Obviously, they were historically horrible last year and
Speaker 1: what dan Quinn has done moving them around it and
Speaker 1: it's allowing them to get those takeaways. It's just such
Speaker 1: a huge difference from a year ago. So I would
Speaker 1: say that the perspective of the Cowboys is, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think most people think they're really good, but I think
Speaker 1: if we're being honest, questions about some of the things
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy does, and you know whether or not this
Speaker 1: team is going to be able to get it together
Speaker 1: when it goes in the postseason. But they've been really,
Speaker 1: really good guys outside of the Denver game all year
Speaker 1: along Hey Trey was something this is Isaiah, a pleasure
Speaker 1: to pleasure to eat, meet you, I guess or virtually
Speaker 1: meet you, appreciate you coming up the show. Hey, listen up.
Speaker 1: If you have you sitting up there, you walking into park,
Speaker 1: you're you're right there, right there, and oh in downtown
Speaker 1: New York, and you have two cups sitting on the
Speaker 1: table and you have their full up offense. Is this
Speaker 1: Dallas offense and the Kansas City offense and they're both
Speaker 1: at full steam? Which cup are you picking to go
Speaker 1: forward in terms of being your best offense that you
Speaker 1: can step into this name with. Well, listen, there's two
Speaker 1: ways to look at that, right, I would think without
Speaker 1: a question, be cup with the Cowboys offense. Anyway, these
Speaker 1: are really big cups we're talking about to figure out
Speaker 1: how big I can pick up this cup. I think
Speaker 1: the Cowboys offense is probably more balanced, right, I mean
Speaker 1: we know that they're more balanced than maybe a little
Speaker 1: more methodical Chiefs offense, however, is lightning that couple? And
Speaker 1: I know they had three bad games in a row.
Speaker 1: But even before those three bad games, when people are
Speaker 1: saying what's rowing the Chiefs offense to the first six
Speaker 1: games of the season, they were averaging more yards per game,
Speaker 1: more points per game, had about a third down conversion
Speaker 1: rate per game, and a better red zone touchdown conversion
Speaker 1: rate than either of the last two years, and then
Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl. So a whole narrative about
Speaker 1: the Chiefs office being broken was just a joke. I mean,
Speaker 1: they were turning the ball over, That's what it was.
Speaker 1: And then, by the way, they had a couple of
Speaker 1: bad games in a row. I think the Cowboys offense
Speaker 1: presents a more balanced attack, but the Chiefs offensive then
Speaker 1: shared the hell out of people. Trey, it sounds like
Speaker 1: you're a males diner right now, man, So I actually am.
Speaker 1: I'm having all breakfast. Hey man, I'm a man that
Speaker 1: recognizes when you're you're eating something. So I'm just saying, man,
Speaker 1: if it sounds sounds exactly like that, But I gotta
Speaker 1: ask you more about the MVP racing. Also, obviously Patrick
Speaker 1: mahomes is, you know, aside from a offsides, he would
Speaker 1: have appeared in three Super Bowls, And when it comes
Speaker 1: down to him being the MVP of the league for
Speaker 1: two years and Dak emerging as an MVP leader, how
Speaker 1: do you break down both of these quarterbacks? And obviously
Speaker 1: this is a singular award, but how big would it
Speaker 1: be for either of those guys? Specifically Dak to win
Speaker 1: the MVP. Well, listen, I think that the Mahomes narrative
Speaker 1: out there this year, which to him. I think it's
Speaker 1: from what fogus is. He's gonna have time, He's gonna
Speaker 1: have to light it up for him to get the MVP.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think people are looking at Josh Allen
Speaker 1: and Lamar Jackson quite frankly, I know people are sick
Speaker 1: of it, But tell me why Tom Brady isn't in
Speaker 1: the conversation like a forty four years old. I mean,
Speaker 1: the things he's doing are just ridiculous. And Matthew Stafford
Speaker 1: is there too, So I think there's there's more of
Speaker 1: a potential for Dak with a huge surge down the
Speaker 1: back half to sort of capture other ward. Like Mahomes
Speaker 1: just so good guys, and you know the Cowboys of
Speaker 1: the nineties were this way. People are looking for reasons
Speaker 1: to hate them, you know, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Like people come up with these ridiculous theories about Mahomes
Speaker 1: and it's just because he's so otherworldly. So I just
Speaker 1: feel like when Michael Jordan's when Charles Parkley win the
Speaker 1: NBA MVP one year in the NBA said thanks for
Speaker 1: Michael for not having his best season, and I feel
Speaker 1: like that's the way it's gonna be with with Mahomes
Speaker 1: going forward. My absolutely think Jack is his prime too
Speaker 1: much to have a much better shot at becoming the
Speaker 1: MVP this year if he has a really stellar game
Speaker 1: on Sunday and also what happened down the strategy. No, no,
Speaker 1: and I'm glad to hear that. But you're saying that
Speaker 1: he has to light it up, like he literally has
Speaker 1: to be hair on fire for the rest of the
Speaker 1: season to win. I mean, I mean it, But let's
Speaker 1: be honest. Let the MVP is it's the best quarterback
Speaker 1: on the best team. Okay, That's that's what the league
Speaker 1: has become, right, That's I'm not saying it's right or wrong.
Speaker 1: I'm saying it is like you know, some some of
Speaker 1: the other seasons that we've had from other players, and
Speaker 1: they don't even get a sniff because they're not a quarterback.
Speaker 1: So you know, you can make a pelling argument outside
Speaker 1: of the Monday Night game, the Cooper Cup could be
Speaker 1: the MVP. He's get close to Megatron's numbers this year
Speaker 1: in nineteen hundred yards and one hundred thirty five receptions
Speaker 1: and twenty touchdowns. I mean, that's those are insane numbers.
Speaker 1: He's never going to win because he's not a quarterback.
Speaker 1: All right, Trey, we're giving our predictions later in the show,
Speaker 1: so we'll add this to the list. But who you
Speaker 1: got this week? Cowboys or Chiefs at Arrowhead? Who you
Speaker 1: got coming out on top of? Well, the worst thing
Speaker 1: you can say as well, that's the Chiefs are three
Speaker 1: and oh against the NFC eas this year, well, the
Speaker 1: other three teams in the NFC East. Let's just be honest.
Speaker 1: The Cowboys don't win this division by three games, and
Speaker 1: everyone's gotta go Okay, the division is terrible. It's a
Speaker 1: terrible division this year. However, I feel like the Chiefs
Speaker 1: are a little tested off, and I obviously I think
Speaker 1: being at home helps them. Nothing would surprise me in
Speaker 1: this game because I believe the Cowboys have been the
Speaker 1: most Like I said, I think they've been the most
Speaker 1: consistent team all year long. But I feel like the
Speaker 1: Chiefs are than everybody, So like, really, you thought you
Speaker 1: thought this about our offense, you thought this? And their
Speaker 1: defense has played really well the last three games, and
Speaker 1: their defense just needs to play average if their offense
Speaker 1: is good. If there, if their defense is average and
Speaker 1: their offense does what it's done, is Kansas City could
Speaker 1: prop bomp six straight wins. So I am leaning towards
Speaker 1: Kansas City. But again, nothing would surprise me with the
Speaker 1: way things have gone this year. This is the most
Speaker 1: week to week season I can remember in covering the NFL.
Speaker 1: I know that hurts you to do. I know that
Speaker 1: hurts you deep down inside. I know that was that
Speaker 1: was tough for you to do. But hey, I appreciate
Speaker 1: you being honest. I'm okay with that. I love it.
Speaker 1: I love it very much. Well, thank you so much
Speaker 1: for taking some time to talk with us during your
Speaker 1: breakfast this morning. Hope it was tasty what you have? Oh?
Speaker 1: I had a little steak Tahita. Omelet with you. Man,
Speaker 1: Come on now, my good I know I know how
Speaker 1: to eat. I know Texas people. No, not at all.
Speaker 1: That sounds delicious. You guys doing anything to the show?
Speaker 1: You holding on your all right? Trey, thanks so much.
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you soon. Thank you so much. And
Speaker 1: Tray Wingham, of course, he's done great work throughout his
Speaker 1: career covering the NFL. Still has a great podcast as well.
Speaker 1: Let me go ahead and shout him out there. Didn't
Speaker 1: know he was a Cowboy fan, huge Cowboys. He's not
Speaker 1: from Texas. Uh No, he went to Baylor, graduated from Baylor. Okay,
Speaker 1: sick him sick, embarrassed. So yeah, he's got that connection there.
Speaker 1: Chris off the top rope, Chris loves a Baylor. He
Speaker 1: half Forgotten History is his podcast, Give it a check out.
Speaker 1: He's got a lot of great people, great guests on
Speaker 1: there too. He does really really good work. I've looked
Speaker 1: up to him for a long time as a host
Speaker 1: and back in his NFL Live and Draft Days and stuff.
Speaker 1: You're looking at the great resource man. Oh yeah, so
Speaker 1: he's been he's been a voice of the league for
Speaker 1: a long time. Knowledge Yeah, yes, yeah, he definitely is.
Speaker 1: You could you could hear some of the different perspectives.
Speaker 1: But the one thing that made me laugh was in
Speaker 1: his final answer was the Chiefs offense, as good as
Speaker 1: they are, their defense just has to be average and
Speaker 1: set off a light bulb. I's like, wow, where have
Speaker 1: we heard that before? Right around here? It sounds just
Speaker 1: like here done it, But he brought it. He brought
Speaker 1: up something interesting. Although the Cowboys are probably considered the
Speaker 1: underdogs here, you know, because the Chiefs have had so
Speaker 1: much success, there's probably more a chip on their shoulder
Speaker 1: because people are trying to find ways to poke holes
Speaker 1: and what they're doing this year and everything they haven't
Speaker 1: been they haven't been that good as good this year,
Speaker 1: as good to their standard six and four, they're still good.
Speaker 1: It's a high standard. It's a high, high star, very
Speaker 1: high standard. When you go to three straight championship games
Speaker 1: and then you have two straight Super Bowls and one
Speaker 1: of those you want, Yeah, you're gonna be held to
Speaker 1: a high standard. It kind of goes back to and
Speaker 1: you probably dealt with this during your time in New
Speaker 1: England the Patriots dynasty. Every year if they weren't winning
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, people were poking holes in it, trying
Speaker 1: to say, Okay, that ship is sinking, and then I mean,
Speaker 1: of course they never really were any holes, but if
Speaker 1: there were, they were covered up. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you do that when you go to nine Super Bowls, though,
Speaker 1: you know, if you know what I'm saying, if you
Speaker 1: are consistency, can you know that you have the best
Speaker 1: coach in the league. If you don't finish, it's something
Speaker 1: there's a there's a reason for it, and you know
Speaker 1: you'll be back next year. Kansas City is probably just
Speaker 1: to your point, Kansas City is the same way. Hey man,
Speaker 1: people get sick of winners. That's why the Cowboys and
Speaker 1: parts are so hated because it goes back sixty years
Speaker 1: of five Super Bowls and all that stuff. So yeah,
Speaker 1: there is yeah, but did you have to deal with
Speaker 1: any of that from a national standpoint of trying to
Speaker 1: poke holes in a team that you knew you didn't
Speaker 1: need to poke holes in because you knew you were
Speaker 1: had you had that confidence, you have that foundation, not
Speaker 1: necessarily there. I mean I think I felt that more here,
Speaker 1: and there hasn't been a championship here and a good
Speaker 1: wow wow. You know, I'm just the facts, right. That's interesting.
Speaker 1: I mean, just because of the amount of media attention,
Speaker 1: just because of this, the fan base, all that kind
Speaker 1: of stuff, the expectation levels are always so high, and
Speaker 1: it necessarily hasn't always been grasped versus out there, because
Speaker 1: you know, right, I think it's I think it's more
Speaker 1: hopeful here. It's been more hopeful here in Alice, in
Speaker 1: New England. My time there, it's like it's like, we
Speaker 1: know we are good, we know we have a good foundation.
Speaker 1: If we don't make it, yeah, to Heck's point, we
Speaker 1: know why, right, that will be check that box. Let's
Speaker 1: correct that. Come back in all season. We'll be back
Speaker 1: next year. It's not a hope, it's I can identify it.
Speaker 1: I can put my finger on it. It's getting addressed.
Speaker 1: And now we're gonna get be right back in that game. Right,
Speaker 1: we'll be exactly where we want to be versus here.
Speaker 1: I feel like people are still hoping and can't kind
Speaker 1: of grasping onto the past and saying, oh it feels
Speaker 1: like it like it did back then. It's like what's tangible? Right,
Speaker 1: what's tangible? So it's like actually just grasping that thing
Speaker 1: and being a check the box and say this is
Speaker 1: what we need to address. Once we fix that, will
Speaker 1: be exactly where we want to be. That's good. That's
Speaker 1: good stuff. You know what, Because hope is not a strategy. Nope,
Speaker 1: all right, yeah, hope is. And we can't this is this,
Speaker 1: this is the change, and when you see it change,
Speaker 1: you can't. Well, man, we're gonna this is a trap
Speaker 1: every week. Oh, it's a trap game. Oh we gonna
Speaker 1: have a let down here. What's seven and two? Bill
Speaker 1: Parcel said, you are what your records as you are.
Speaker 1: Say that and seven and we're seven to two right now,
Speaker 1: Why don't we get the recognition. I'm not downplaying what
Speaker 1: Kansas City has done. I'm not downplaying what Patrick Mahomes
Speaker 1: has done. He's one of the best in the business.
Speaker 1: But there's a part of me that says, you what
Speaker 1: used to be, we are what is today, and look
Speaker 1: and we are defensively, defensively all of those things that
Speaker 1: people are. Man just want them to go ahead and
Speaker 1: fold the tent and go ahead and be what they
Speaker 1: used to be. We ain't that no more. We show
Speaker 1: up at your stadium with the bazooka number eleven. So
Speaker 1: but y'all say saying, with your chance, Friday, I want
Speaker 1: you so passionate in That's the thing is because, like
Speaker 1: you said, until you have that tangible and tangible in
Speaker 1: this scenario is playoff success, and you don't have that yet.
Speaker 1: To a certain extent, there's hope. But you're right, it's different.
Speaker 1: This isn't the same. This isn't the same as what
Speaker 1: we've seen in the past. There's a chance here because
Speaker 1: of the bazooka. Is that where I like that name.
Speaker 1: The man with a thousand nicknames, Michael Parson has just
Speaker 1: earned another one. I might be my favorite one so far,
Speaker 1: but this is this could be different. But that's the
Speaker 1: thing is, we got to get to that tangible side
Speaker 1: of things. And I think that's why this Chiefs matchup
Speaker 1: is so anticipated because this is the first taste of
Speaker 1: something tangible until you get to the playoffs. This in Arizona.
Speaker 1: I've been to two games scheduled as a tangible win
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys to stay Okay, we're there. We have
Speaker 1: a team that's good enough to go to that level,
Speaker 1: and this is one of the weeks where you could
Speaker 1: prove that. Hex channeling John Cena right now time is up.
Speaker 1: My time is now, they're time. I don't think they're
Speaker 1: time's up. That's what makes this that's what makes this
Speaker 1: matchup so much fun is because it literally could be
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl preview. I mean it really could. I mean,
Speaker 1: both teams got to keep getting better and all that,
Speaker 1: but like they could see each other again. They're they're
Speaker 1: not based on the way they played last three weeks.
Speaker 1: They're not going anywhere. Pete, when you look at the league.
Speaker 1: Most of the teams that have a top tier quarterback
Speaker 1: are always in the hunt now. And that's that's the
Speaker 1: importance of them. That's why those positions get paid what
Speaker 1: they get paid. And so I'm not what I'm saying
Speaker 1: is it's hard to do be the consistent as the
Speaker 1: New England Patriots have been with Tom Brady. There are
Speaker 1: a whole lot of other things that had to be
Speaker 1: good as well. You look, and we looked at our
Speaker 1: losses and we're judging by that. Let's judge them based
Speaker 1: off of their losses. Let's look at who they were
Speaker 1: when they got beat down versus Tennessee. Who were they
Speaker 1: when they got beat down versus Buffalo? Right, and so
Speaker 1: some of those things, maybe they get better at those things.
Speaker 1: Maybe Andy Reid can rectify and correct it. I just
Speaker 1: don't see it. And I'm not going based off of
Speaker 1: oh what you used to be. We're on the same
Speaker 1: page there. I was thinking about that this week. You
Speaker 1: have to look at this matchup objectively on like what
Speaker 1: what is twenty twenty one told us about these teams?
Speaker 1: I do think, I mean, their past history, they can
Speaker 1: draw on it, I mean, and what they right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you know, I think ye Trey was right. The
Speaker 1: more consistent team. Isaiah, I think has been scratching his head.
Speaker 1: He's scratching his head. Y'all know, I'll shoot this straight.
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with you guys in terms of, you know,
Speaker 1: teams leaning back on their pastor or you you paying
Speaker 1: attention to what's present. And they have they struggle the
Speaker 1: first part of the year, but to the same point
Speaker 1: that I made about the New England Patriots, and they're
Speaker 1: figuring it out too, even without you know, obviously they're
Speaker 1: leader of the past. Sure, they're figuring things out. There's
Speaker 1: an expectation because of what has happened in the past,
Speaker 1: and because of the past, the past allows for you
Speaker 1: to have a certain sense of confidence. The past allows
Speaker 1: for you to have a certain sense of realistic expectation
Speaker 1: because you know that. Because you know that, you can
Speaker 1: attain that. The reason why people are, why the fans
Speaker 1: are excited and everybody in football is excited for Dallas
Speaker 1: to play the Kansas City Chiefs is because you know
Speaker 1: what the Chiefs are. Regardless of what they did, it
Speaker 1: is first half of the season. You know what they are.
Speaker 1: You know what they're capable of. And you know, you're
Speaker 1: not just saying Kansas City is just they're just a
Speaker 1: bad team. No, you're saying Kansas City is going to
Speaker 1: figure it out. Why are you saying they're going to
Speaker 1: figure it out? Because you know what they are at
Speaker 1: the root of their their team and and their past
Speaker 1: indicates that, right, Their past indicates they're the pieces that
Speaker 1: that were in place for them to go out and
Speaker 1: when these championships and go to the championships, is still there.
Speaker 1: That's a popular Jerry Jones is um too. If I've
Speaker 1: seen you do it before, I know you, I know
Speaker 1: you can do it again. And that applies. That applies
Speaker 1: to Kansas City. Applies to Kansas City for sure. And
Speaker 1: I think the vice versa applies to the Cowboys. Let
Speaker 1: me see it to believe it exactly. I think both ways,
Speaker 1: both ways it could go and that's why, and that's
Speaker 1: why fans are excited. That's why most people are excited
Speaker 1: for this game, because it's like you're not If you
Speaker 1: were playing Buffalo Bills right now, you'd be excited, but
Speaker 1: you wouldn't be excited like this because they haven't done
Speaker 1: Because they haven't done it right, They haven't done it
Speaker 1: in a while. They're they're damn good team, damn good team,
Speaker 1: great quarterback, all that stuff, right, But you wouldn't be
Speaker 1: excited about it like you're excited about the kansa c
Speaker 1: Chie's because you know the Chiefs are a championship caliber team.
Speaker 1: And I know a lot of people are gonna be saying, well,
Speaker 1: why didn't you have that week one? Well, you didn't
Speaker 1: know what this team was week one, coming off of
Speaker 1: a six and ten year, You've had some injuries, you
Speaker 1: didn't know what a lot of it was there too, though,
Speaker 1: a lot of people excited because why because there's the champs.
Speaker 1: They're a champ. Let's see who we are by facing
Speaker 1: the champs. It's the same thing this week. Yeah, lots
Speaker 1: of opportunity here. The Cowboys and the Chiefs have had
Speaker 1: three common opponents. How did each of those teams fair
Speaker 1: against the Chiefs and the Cowboys separately? We'll talk about
Speaker 1: that next and here from our friends over at DraftKings,
Speaker 1: we give our players to watch in this week's game.

Speaker 1: Chris Beam just roasted heckma going into the break. I'm
Speaker 1: trying to take care of my guy, take care of
Speaker 1: the team. Hey, that's appreciate it. If I would have
Speaker 1: been it was the tone, you know, no man, oh man,
Speaker 1: that was so funny. I wish y'all could have heard that.
Speaker 1: All right, you did. We're moving on. I mentioned those
Speaker 1: I mentioned those three, those three common opponents that the
Speaker 1: Cowboys and the Chiefs both have. Now are they, Kyle?
Speaker 1: Those three are Los Angeles, Philadelphia in New York. The
Speaker 1: Cowboys are three and oh against those teams, right, h
Speaker 1: Kansas City is two and one against those teams. Really,
Speaker 1: one of their four losses came to the Los Angeles Chargers.
Speaker 1: It was actually one week after the Cowboys beat the Chargers,
Speaker 1: so the Chargers were the one loss. Now, let's see
Speaker 1: about those two wins and compare the two. Washington or
Speaker 1: excuse me, Philadelphia fell to Kansas City forty two to thirty,
Speaker 1: so plus twelve. Cowboys beat the Philadelphia Eagles by twenty
Speaker 1: Cowboys beat the New York Giants by twenty four, and
Speaker 1: the Chiefs beat the Giants by three, So at least
Speaker 1: the advantage Cowboys when you look at it that way.
Speaker 1: But like we said, that was before the three game
Speaker 1: win streak, that was before the Chiefs really found their stride.
Speaker 1: So I'm just basically throwing it out there that this
Speaker 1: is a different Chiefs team. But at least the history
Speaker 1: shows that Cowboys should have a good opportunity to win
Speaker 1: this game. Man, that's you know what we are in
Speaker 1: this league. Obviously the comparison businesses afoot all the time,
Speaker 1: and it's but only it doesn't work for us, right,
Speaker 1: So like if we beat like how people, well if
Speaker 1: they beat San Diego, if they beat Los Angeles and
Speaker 1: then Los Angeles beat them, and if it just doesn't
Speaker 1: add up for us. But going back, it should beat
Speaker 1: different by forty. Wait, that's not us. But then you
Speaker 1: go back, you go back to you go back to
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles game, and that's very important a measuring stick,
Speaker 1: you know, obviously playing them a week apart, and I
Speaker 1: just felt as though Los Angeles came into that game
Speaker 1: pissed off and they played like and there were certain
Speaker 1: things at Eckler, certain aspects of their offense that just
Speaker 1: couldn't be stopped. And obviously they're going up against a
Speaker 1: quarterback that they they've seen quite often in that division.
Speaker 1: So you know, I don't put anything past them in
Speaker 1: that game just to say, look, we won against Los Angeles.
Speaker 1: He was an impressive game on our part, but you
Speaker 1: know that that loss for them, really I can't chalk
Speaker 1: that up. Nothing to add on that. Trying to stay
Speaker 1: out of it. You're trying to stay out of that
Speaker 1: that talk. I mean, when was that game Week two?
Speaker 1: In Week three? Yeah, I mean that's a while back.
Speaker 1: Chiefs defense a lot better now. I think you can
Speaker 1: legitimately say that they're better defense. I asked McCarthy yesterday.
Speaker 1: Why do you think that is? He said, you know,
Speaker 1: early early season September, coming out of training camp, unscouted
Speaker 1: looks sometime defensives are still trying to find their stride.
Speaker 1: They've added Melvin Ingram. They just seem to be playing better,
Speaker 1: just more sound and and I think they found a
Speaker 1: rotation they like up front too. How much does the
Speaker 1: edition of Melvin Ingram pay a role Because we talked
Speaker 1: about it off air Isaiah before before hit Sticks, I
Speaker 1: think is when we talked about it, but I mean
Speaker 1: the physicality that he brings is it's apparent he's very
Speaker 1: physical player, and that's something that they need on that
Speaker 1: side of the ball. I don't I think that they're
Speaker 1: addressing much like we were just talking about teams that
Speaker 1: know they're good, teams that have had success. It's easy
Speaker 1: to say, hey, where are we dropping the ball? Like
Speaker 1: what are we missing? Right, and as able to say, okay,
Speaker 1: we're good here, we're good here, boop, oh, that's what
Speaker 1: it is, all right, So let's yeah, let me, let
Speaker 1: me go ahead and put that button, let me let
Speaker 1: me circle that. Okay, let's go ahead and make a
Speaker 1: trade with one of the most physical teams in the
Speaker 1: league and get one of their juice guys. Right, So
Speaker 1: they went out there and got Ingram. That's somebody that
Speaker 1: you now add in the mix with Clark, with Jones
Speaker 1: and all these other guys, and you thought to the
Speaker 1: honey Badger and all these guys, will you start thinking about, man,
Speaker 1: what is the characteristics of these players? Fast? Physical, right,
Speaker 1: fly around? Now they just have to fare out a
Speaker 1: way to have some former continuity and communication and they
Speaker 1: can become a problem early on the reason why I
Speaker 1: didn't come in on that. We we struggle. The Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboys struggle and had a lot of conversations around one
Speaker 1: or two offensive linemen in terms of just moving one
Speaker 1: or two guys, missing one or two guys, moving one
Speaker 1: or two guys around. These guys had five, yeah on
Speaker 1: their offensive line, their entire offensive line. So I really
Speaker 1: write off what happened in the first game like it's
Speaker 1: a loss, it's on your record first month of the season,
Speaker 1: that's a that's an adjustments. I personally write those games
Speaker 1: off because if we can't expect our officsive line to
Speaker 1: play good with one or two guys missing, how the
Speaker 1: heck do you expect I don't care who they are
Speaker 1: to expect anybody to play well with five guys that
Speaker 1: are brand new, you know, aside from just OTA's in camp,
Speaker 1: so they have opportunity to get things together. But defensively, yeah,
Speaker 1: they they they will be good. I hope it's not
Speaker 1: this week. Yeah, hopefully that's not the case. Now let's
Speaker 1: get to our draft kids Daily Fantasy Picks of the Week.
Speaker 1: This is a segment we're gonna do every Friday. Here,
Speaker 1: I'm talking Cowboys. The Official Daily fantasy partner of the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, giving customers a shot at millions of dollars
Speaker 1: all season long. Eligibility restrictions apply. See DraftKings dot com
Speaker 1: for details. Here's the four picks that we've got. We'll
Speaker 1: start with Cede Lamb. Who's got CD this week? And
Speaker 1: why I have CD? Get your check books out. You
Speaker 1: gotta see he's sitting there at seventy six hundred dollars
Speaker 1: and it's for a good reason. Ceedee Lamb bawled out
Speaker 1: last week. He's seemingly getting better every single week. And
Speaker 1: the reason why he bawled out is because there's a
Speaker 1: dude by the name of Michael Gallup that you see
Speaker 1: down there in the bottom of list him and the
Speaker 1: presence of Michael Gallup allows for CD to bump down
Speaker 1: into the inside. CD was in the slot sixty eight
Speaker 1: percent of the time last game, allowing him to face
Speaker 1: the opposing third best cornerback sixty eight percent of the
Speaker 1: passing snatch. So imagine CD lined up against their third
Speaker 1: best shoot. Imagine CD learn them against their second best.
Speaker 1: He is going to ball out, and there's a great
Speaker 1: opportunity for him to ball out this week. Simply because
Speaker 1: of those matchups. Okay, what about Dalton Sholtz. Who's got
Speaker 1: Dalton shorts is probably Rob right, no as he has
Speaker 1: no he has Mark Cooper, Mark Cooper guy. Okay, we'll
Speaker 1: go ahead, all right. Well, you know, look when you
Speaker 1: when you study the film from Kansas City, they literally
Speaker 1: don't cover well on their tight on tight ends and
Speaker 1: probably because of what you said, having to bring the
Speaker 1: third best out to cover the slot. And then that
Speaker 1: gives you man to man either with a strong safety
Speaker 1: when they go big nickel or with that linebacker. If
Speaker 1: y'all haven't noticed, Daltons Shoults is bawling, bawling, not on
Speaker 1: a budget, and he is doing it in a way
Speaker 1: that I think is going to set him up for
Speaker 1: this front office to have to make some decisions at
Speaker 1: the position. So if you look at how much is
Speaker 1: gonna cost him, it was it forty six hundred and something.
Speaker 1: I mean, guys, this is a this is a deal.
Speaker 1: Don't ever say hecky, heck ain hut you up. I'm
Speaker 1: doing it right now, all right, double put them up.
Speaker 1: Put the money on Dalton, because I'm telling when you
Speaker 1: get down the red zone and we and they try
Speaker 1: and go to that big nickel or any of that boy,
Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz is going to eat. I picked Michael Gallop
Speaker 1: there at the bottom, but Dalta Schultz is by far
Speaker 1: my favorite value pick because of what they could do
Speaker 1: against Kansas City's defense and because of the cheap about
Speaker 1: No I'm just I'm saying he had a great big
Speaker 1: I'm saying, wait a second, he's Amari Cooper is not
Speaker 1: even the top of that list in terms of Wow,
Speaker 1: sixty two hundred. Okay, anybody forget ninety three catches last year? Okay,
Speaker 1: tell them Robs their most reliable option to this day.
Speaker 1: In the last time that he played on the road,
Speaker 1: it was Cooper rush at quarterback thir eight catches, one
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty two yards. Well, Dak's playing this week.
Speaker 1: But that's even better, right, It's even better for Dak Prescott.
Speaker 1: And you know, I think he's due. I think he's
Speaker 1: a little healthier. I think he's feeling better, and I
Speaker 1: think on the road they need his reliability to kind
Speaker 1: of move the change. Be that possession guy that every
Speaker 1: Friday radio say it with your chest, Rob Rob Goes.
Speaker 1: Did you forget he pulled out what the fut and
Speaker 1: then Michael Gallup at the bottom. That was my pick.
Speaker 1: He's a value guy because there is still question marks
Speaker 1: on whether he's going to explode or whether he's going
Speaker 1: to be held in check. He'll have a couple catches,
Speaker 1: but is he going to explode to be the fantasy
Speaker 1: value that you need. That's why his value so low.
Speaker 1: And honestly, with the way that he gets just sold
Speaker 1: me on Cooper and Schultz. Go for Cooper and Schultz.
Speaker 1: Those guys are value picks. I like Cedie Lamb too.
Speaker 1: Don't worry. Ceddie Lamb might be my favorite player. He
Speaker 1: had the stats, true, the status. But that's your draft
Speaker 1: King's pick of the week against Kansas City. When we
Speaker 1: come back, we've got our picks of the game. How
Speaker 1: are we doing standings? Got it all well? The fans

Speaker 1: the Isaiah stand back Train twenty seven and twenty nine.
Speaker 1: You had a four and two week last week, though, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he came back, getting back on track just standing back.
Speaker 1: Heckma also went four and two last week, so you
Speaker 1: didn't gain any ground on Hecma. Heckma's now thirty two
Speaker 1: and twenty four overall, so you're in fourth place. Third place,
Speaker 1: which was originally the fans is now Rob Phillips. Rob
Speaker 1: Phillips went three and three last week and dropped the spot.
Speaker 1: Damn Cleveland Browns. Yeah, those Browns are getting in every
Speaker 1: time you picked against them two weeks ago. You picked
Speaker 1: the Bengals over them, and then they destroyed the Bengals,
Speaker 1: and then you picked the Browns and then they won,
Speaker 1: I mean then they lost them. So where are the fans.
Speaker 1: The fans are in second place. The fans are at
Speaker 1: thirty four and twenty two in second. They've been four
Speaker 1: two and one from Ohio. The losses are from b
Speaker 1: from Ohio. So Steve last week, dude, Steve went five
Speaker 1: and one. Scuba Steve went off last oh boys, Yeah,
Speaker 1: robbed the fans out. My favorite part of going back
Speaker 1: and listening to it was whenever you you forgot him
Speaker 1: on a on a game. He went to Isaiah, he
Speaker 1: went to Rob he didn't say my pick, but then
Speaker 1: he went straight into the Cowboys and and uh and
Speaker 1: the Falcons, and Steve just goes, I got the Chiefs
Speaker 1: or like whoever I got, I got Washington like real quick.
Speaker 1: It was really funny, man, I'm at the top of
Speaker 1: thirty six and twenty. I also went five and one
Speaker 1: last week. Convenient one, Yeah, convenient. Well, you have all
Speaker 1: the picks on your text if you want to look
Speaker 1: at it, because I sent him in on text, and
Speaker 1: so don't dare, rob he's gonna do that. I get
Speaker 1: a lot of texts he'll do it. Go check him.
Speaker 1: I'm five yeah, all right. This week we've got Gee
Speaker 1: from Jersey on the line or guy, Gee what up? Gee?
Speaker 1: Fellas listen feeling this whole week is epic. Man, if
Speaker 1: you're Cowboys Ben and you ain't ready for Sunday three
Speaker 1: thirty Dallas Time four thirty, something is wrong. So this
Speaker 1: is this is Paciu Mayweather feeling. This is this this
Speaker 1: game seven eighty eight and Rob P you'll agree with me.
Speaker 1: This is Holgan versus Warrior Warrior Sky Don't wrestle Mania
Speaker 1: six in the road. This is this is epic right here,
Speaker 1: man and Rob P. We all jealous because you get
Speaker 1: to be there, baby, get to get it in person. Man.
Speaker 1: But hyped up, we hyped up. Let's go, baby, Let's
Speaker 1: make these picks. Let's do it. So we've got six
Speaker 1: games on the docket, as always, will start off with
Speaker 1: the Riverboat Ron game. How about Washington on the road
Speaker 1: at Carolina. Cam Newton is expected to start for the Panthers.
Speaker 1: We're gonna start with you, Gee, who you got in
Speaker 1: this one? Man? I'm taking Carolina. They about to go
Speaker 1: on a run, and they about to give Tampa a
Speaker 1: run for their money. Man, Cam is back, They ride receivers,
Speaker 1: is back. That defense is healthy with them corners on
Speaker 1: the field, Carolina, Isaiah going with them, mister Yogi bear himself,
Speaker 1: Cam Newton, who Okay? Going with Cam? I bet Cam
Speaker 1: goes off off in this game. Yes, against his old coach.
Speaker 1: I like it, which there's mutual respect there. But yeah,
Speaker 1: Caroline at home, So we're all gonna take the Panthers here.
Speaker 1: Huh oh, yeah, okay, I'm gonna go with the Panthers.
Speaker 1: I think Cam is back. You know, this is a
Speaker 1: revenge game for him because Riverboat had an opportunity to
Speaker 1: pick him up. I think he feels some kind of
Speaker 1: way about that. I know I would. I gotta think
Speaker 1: the same thing. I think the Cam is gonna find
Speaker 1: a groove. I think this team's gonna find a groove.
Speaker 1: And that defense that has allowed, i mean, not very
Speaker 1: many yards per game this season has been pretty good.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Panthers here. What you wanted
Speaker 1: a chance to catch up? Isaiah? Yeah? Isam looks frustrated
Speaker 1: off to the side. All right. The Jets hosting the Dolphins.
Speaker 1: Miami has won six of their last seven against New York.
Speaker 1: But hey, New York's finding a little bit of stride there.
Speaker 1: They want a couple games this year. Rob, We'll start
Speaker 1: with you. Who's the quarterback for the It's not Mike
Speaker 1: White anymore, it is not. I think it's Flacco, though,
Speaker 1: it is Joe Flacco. They went and signed Joe too much.
Speaker 1: How elite inconsistency mean elite? Give me Miami, okay, Miami
Speaker 1: on the road. I'm gonna fly, fly, Jets fly. I
Speaker 1: don't know if I've ever heard that term before, but
Speaker 1: Jets at home. That's a good one. Now I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go Dolphins, Miami Dolphins. Yeah, give me all right, Gee,
Speaker 1: who you got Dolphins the Jets of the worst team
Speaker 1: in pro sport count Hey, I like it. I like it.
Speaker 1: Say it with your chest. I think the Lions would
Speaker 1: have something to say about that. I'm having a rough
Speaker 1: time with the allergiesus week. I'll pay you that much.
Speaker 1: All Saints at the Eagles. Saints at five and four,
Speaker 1: the Eagles at four and six. Uh, heck one, We'll
Speaker 1: start with you on this one. Saints at the Eagles,
Speaker 1: And you know, how much I do despise the boot
Speaker 1: Eagles and the Saints as well, But I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with the Saints. Okay, they both are not good, but
Speaker 1: I go Saints. I'm gonna go Philly at home in
Speaker 1: this one, Rob, Saints are kind of killing me like
Speaker 1: the Browns. Man, I'll go Eagles and Tris. By the way,
Speaker 1: that might be a drop. That's say it with your
Speaker 1: chests if you want to have time to clip it off.
Speaker 1: I'll go Eagles. Okay, all right, what you got, I'm
Speaker 1: going Philly, man, We got to watch out. They might
Speaker 1: be able to win. Since to day last seven, Yeah,
Speaker 1: there you go. Second most points per game in the
Speaker 1: NFL since Week eight, thirty two point seven points per game.
Speaker 1: All right, The Bengals at the Raiders. I'll start off
Speaker 1: on this one. This is tough because the Raiders haven't
Speaker 1: been playing as well. They're just coming off of that
Speaker 1: really big loss to the Chiefs. But I say they
Speaker 1: rebound against Cincinnati. Give me Las Vegas at home. Rob,
Speaker 1: Same same line of thinking, Kyle, same line of thinking.
Speaker 1: Give me Vegas with a win going into Thanksgiving against Dallas.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, makes that game interesting. Seven hundred and seventy
Speaker 1: seven straight sevens hand in a nice game, going with
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Going with the Raiders, all right, Gas, Vegas.
Speaker 1: Heck's got a chance to make up a game now,
Speaker 1: I'm going with the Bengals. The Bengals here, chance to
Speaker 1: make up a game. Steelers at the Chargers. I think
Speaker 1: this is a very underrated game at Sunday night football,
Speaker 1: so we'll probably get a chance to watch a little
Speaker 1: bit of it. Pittsburgh one of two undefeated teams since
Speaker 1: Week five. Yes, in his back, I believe so is
Speaker 1: he out? I don't think he last week? Yeah, so
Speaker 1: I think he's back though. But yeah. So it's the
Speaker 1: Steelers on the road against the Chargers. Can the Chargers
Speaker 1: up in the Steelers after they've been red hot as
Speaker 1: of late. I'll start with you, Isaiah, big Ben, big
Speaker 1: Ben and the Steelers, Okay, heckma man, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: charges at home, Charges at home. I'm staying there with you.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Chargers. Gee, who you got, I'm going
Speaker 1: with the Steelers. The Chargers are hurting up front. No
Speaker 1: boats and Nottillery. Oh good point. All right, I was
Speaker 1: on the fence. You just you just helped me out there.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Steelers on the road. Then
Speaker 1: there you go. Okay, the game we've all been waiting
Speaker 1: for Cowboys at the Chiefs. What's your gut feeling? How
Speaker 1: did the cow Boys get it done at Arrowhead? Are
Speaker 1: they gonna come out with a dub? Are they kind
Speaker 1: of come out with a loss? Gee, we'll start with
Speaker 1: you give me the Boys forty one thirty one twenty fourteen,
Speaker 1: Denver Fields. Man, I'm born with the boys. Man, let's
Speaker 1: go deck this this lead out there. Oh, I love it. Gee,
Speaker 1: you're the man. Thanks again for joining us. As always,
Speaker 1: we'll talk to you soon. My friend. All right, gee
Speaker 1: Gee from Jersey our guest picker this week. Let's see
Speaker 1: if he can keep up with Steve. Steve with five
Speaker 1: and one last week, So lots of pressure on Rob
Speaker 1: Phillips on this pick on me, it's on me. Well
Speaker 1: you're you're down by one game to the fans now,
Speaker 1: oh gosh, yeah, Gee, with some good picks today. Isaiah
Speaker 1: said something earlier in the week. I agree with when
Speaker 1: you think it's a shootout and a tract me, it's
Speaker 1: probably not. I think it's gonna be kind of ugly
Speaker 1: at times. I think there might be some turnovers, maybe
Speaker 1: the Cowboys can get some get some turnovers here. But
Speaker 1: I'm with Heck in that based on what we've seen
Speaker 1: this year, we should have confidence then go up win
Speaker 1: this game. I'm to go with the Cowboys in a
Speaker 1: fairly low scoring game on the road. Twenty Okay, Isaiah, Ooh,
Speaker 1: I love the Cowboys, you do, Yes, I love the Seahawks,
Speaker 1: but the Cowboys. Um. However, Kansas City is Kansas City,
Speaker 1: and I believe that Kansas City, unfortunately we've been talking
Speaker 1: about it for weeks, has hit their stride, unfortunately for Dallas,
Speaker 1: at the wrong time. And I think it's going to
Speaker 1: be a heck of a contested game. But I think
Speaker 1: that Kansas City is going to be too explosive, and
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that we won't put ourselves in bad
Speaker 1: situations at some point in time in this game, allowing
Speaker 1: them to have more chances than they should. So I'll
Speaker 1: go with Ksey score thirty five, twenty eight. Okay, did
Speaker 1: you give us score? I did? Okay, I probably way
Speaker 1: too low, but yeah, oh, that's that's right, that's right,
Speaker 1: all right. I've gone back and forth on this game
Speaker 1: all week too. There are days when I look at
Speaker 1: it and I say, you know what, the Cowboys are
Speaker 1: gonna win this thing. But then there are other days
Speaker 1: when I say the Chiefs are going to win this thing.
Speaker 1: One of those days is today, where I've gone back
Speaker 1: and forth, and I think the team that has the
Speaker 1: most opportunity to force turnovers, to get a couple extra
Speaker 1: stops because of the talent on the defensive side of
Speaker 1: the football and Negate just the offensive firepower that's in
Speaker 1: this game, I think that teams the Dallas Cowboys. I
Speaker 1: think it's dan Quin defensively that's going to force a
Speaker 1: couple of turnovers. We're gonna make the Kansas City offense
Speaker 1: get into some mistakes, and I think the Cowboys will
Speaker 1: keep pace on their side of things and get the
Speaker 1: job done offensively. Give me the Dallas Cowboys winning a
Speaker 1: huge one at Arrowhead Stadium thirty eight thirty four in
Speaker 1: a classic, I mean down to the wire, classic game.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a touchdown drive in the fourth from
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott that wins it, and the Cowboys are at
Speaker 1: eight and two. So so I believe that sometimes you
Speaker 1: can have too much respect for your opponent. It's true.
Speaker 1: It's never good, especially when you got to put hands
Speaker 1: on them. So this is that game where we gotta
Speaker 1: put Paul's. We got to show up in your city
Speaker 1: and put Paul's on you. And the one thing I
Speaker 1: know about a reputation that you used to have back
Speaker 1: in the day that used to bees don't make honey.
Speaker 1: We all us now. And so when we show up
Speaker 1: in your city with the big case and what's in
Speaker 1: the big case the bazooka, and we're unveiling it again,
Speaker 1: and we unveiling it again, it's gonna be a lot
Speaker 1: of pressure. And Patrick Mahomes his character turned right back
Speaker 1: to the pumpkin that it's been versus the other four
Speaker 1: guys that's annihilated them. So obviously I'm taking the Cowboys
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a forty burger all around. I
Speaker 1: think this is gonna be a shootout. Um. I just
Speaker 1: think offensively both of these teams are. The firepower is
Speaker 1: going to be on display. But I think the Cowboys
Speaker 1: and Dak we went in a shootout and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go forty nine forty two something like that. Wow, no defense.
Speaker 1: Chris Beam's gonna be getting some water burger on suffrid Night.
Speaker 1: Look at the fries aside of spicy ketchup. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be fantastic. All right. That does it for us this
Speaker 1: week here on Talking Cowboys, Hope you had some fun
Speaker 1: for Chris Beam in the back, Rob Phillips, Isaiah stand back.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take my headset off because everybody we've got
Speaker 1: something that we say on Friday's Heck my Harrison, Cowboy Nation,
Speaker 1: I hope your team win. This has been a production
Speaker 1: of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
