Speaker 1: in a long time. I think Lorena is going. So
Speaker 1: there you got. Yeah. Chris is on point today, Mario drop.
Speaker 1: Chris is saying it with your chest, Robo. This is
Speaker 1: a pleasure of me to finally get to do for
Speaker 1: the first time in three days news and notes. What's
Speaker 1: going on in Cowboys name? You got this? My god?
Speaker 1: Where do you want to start? Exactly where do we
Speaker 1: want to Let's start with Mike McCarthy and Ron Rivera.
Speaker 1: You want to set with injuries? What do you want
Speaker 1: to start? Start with injuries? Then I want to have
Speaker 1: a conversation about Mike McCarthy Ron Rivera. Okay, well, I
Speaker 1: mean actually the injury report for the Cowboys looks fairly
Speaker 1: clean this week, with a couple exceptions. Um Tony Pollard
Speaker 1: not practicing for two straight days now. He told us
Speaker 1: yesterday he would be likely a game time decision Sunday,
Speaker 1: and he said when he that last tackle he broke
Speaker 1: on the fifty eight yard touchdown. He I don't know
Speaker 1: if you've had this injury, Isaiah, He felt a little
Speaker 1: teared his player of fascia, which fasis. That is very painful.
Speaker 1: You don't know if you've had it too. But so
Speaker 1: we'll see on that um that that's the biggest injury
Speaker 1: of note for the Cowboys this week, and obviously Zeke's
Speaker 1: still playing through it. Mike McCarthy said yesterday he felt
Speaker 1: like both guys would play, but Tony Pollard does not
Speaker 1: practice this week, so we'll see plane or frasciaitis. I'm
Speaker 1: no good no. He said in the interview that like
Speaker 1: the fact that you tear it all the way through
Speaker 1: it actually heals quicker. That made no sense to me.
Speaker 1: Makes zero sense to me either, because it's an irritating thing.
Speaker 1: It's like it's a it's like a irritant. It's like rubbing, right,
Speaker 1: So it's like this tending and it gets very very inflame.
Speaker 1: So if you tear it through it and then you
Speaker 1: don't have to really deal with irritation exactly. So that's
Speaker 1: actually a benefit. But people who have plan a frasciatus,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of just regular citizens out there to
Speaker 1: have plan a fasciat. It sucks. I've never personally had it,
Speaker 1: but I see the pain on people's faces that are
Speaker 1: dealing with it, and it's one of those things that
Speaker 1: just stays with you. You got to calm that that
Speaker 1: thing now. So the fact that he hasn't practiced for
Speaker 1: two days makes sense. The fact that he's a game
Speaker 1: time decision. Yeah, it will be that. I want to say,
Speaker 1: Terrence knew him and Tenu did the same thing. It
Speaker 1: was like partially torn, and they did say that it's
Speaker 1: actually better to tear it. It's almost like sometimes it's
Speaker 1: better to break a bone than sprain something. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: you know it's gonna heal and all that stuff. So
Speaker 1: we'll see. Also, Noah Brown on IR, Yeah, so is
Speaker 1: it the semi show this week? I don't know. Cedric
Speaker 1: Wilson is back to practice on a limited basis, so
Speaker 1: maybe he can go this week. So those are the
Speaker 1: two think when you go IR at this point, are
Speaker 1: you done for the year. No, it's a it's a
Speaker 1: three game minimum still, and Mike said maybe a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks, So it's gonna be three weeks okay. And
Speaker 1: then obviously you know Randy and Neville Gallimore have continued
Speaker 1: to practice this week on IR, so that's pointing towards
Speaker 1: you would think being activated this weekend. That's a COVID change, right,
Speaker 1: because it used to be that way, whereas this late
Speaker 1: in the season, it was the end of the year
Speaker 1: for you if you were on IR. But now that
Speaker 1: it's it's an unlimited IR. Yeah you can. You can
Speaker 1: do it all the way for the three weeks, all
Speaker 1: the way through, right, Yeah, and you still got what
Speaker 1: five five weeks left in the season, four four after
Speaker 1: this week? Yeah? Got you? Isaiah, do you have a question?
Speaker 1: I just want to know what happened to Noah Brown.
Speaker 1: It's a groin injury. I'm not sure how it happened,
Speaker 1: but must have happened in the game. Those suck no
Speaker 1: fun at all. All right, let's talk about Mike McCarthy.
Speaker 1: This is another example of our show going early. We
Speaker 1: just missed something that's like the story of the day, man,
Speaker 1: I know, and we also get talked about it. We
Speaker 1: get the pros and cons, we get to go first
Speaker 1: after wins and losses and stuff like that. But that
Speaker 1: would have been fun to talk about, but now we
Speaker 1: get to talk about it on Say It with your
Speaker 1: chest Friday, because that's exactly what Mike McCarthy did. He
Speaker 1: said it with his chest, and Chris Beam's got a
Speaker 1: cute up in the back. Here is Mike McCarthy and
Speaker 1: his press conference yesterday, a virtually guaranteeing the Cowboys getting
Speaker 1: a win over the Washington football team. We know what
Speaker 1: people think of us. We love that. We're comfortable who
Speaker 1: we are where we are. But I'm excited about what's
Speaker 1: in front of us because you know, we you know,
Speaker 1: we're gonna win this game. I'm confident in that and
Speaker 1: just you know the prep that's going into it. But
Speaker 1: more importantly, we're gonna you know, we want to improve
Speaker 1: too along the way. So I think that's all part
Speaker 1: about what the challenge of December of football gid you.
Speaker 1: We are going to win this game. I'm confident in that.
Speaker 1: That's the quote that everybody has taken. Everybody's run with it.
Speaker 1: I think it wasn't supposed to be a guarantee as
Speaker 1: much as it was a confidence meter from Mike McCarthy,
Speaker 1: but I like it either way. I kind of wanted
Speaker 1: to be a guarantee we're gonna score. Yeah. So back wow,
Speaker 1: So breaking up trauma. Are you okay over there? No,
Speaker 1: there's a dude that coaches the DVS on there's somebody
Speaker 1: had a part of that. So what do you think
Speaker 1: about that, Isaiah? I like it internally. I like it
Speaker 1: internally just because of the fact that you know, things
Speaker 1: like that situation I just I just mentioned can come
Speaker 1: back and bite you. I have no problem with his confidence.
Speaker 1: I have no problem with it at all. It's you know,
Speaker 1: it's some some organizations like you to come out, I
Speaker 1: come out to jump out of the cake, as he
Speaker 1: will say, and say that and kind of make that announcement.
Speaker 1: I'm sure he said that internally, which is not an issue,
Speaker 1: but when you can pronounce that to the masses, it
Speaker 1: can be perceived as a negative thing. But I like
Speaker 1: the confidence. I'm just not sure that I would want
Speaker 1: my head coach run it around saying that. No, we
Speaker 1: talked a little bit about coaching beefs over the years,
Speaker 1: and we haven't had any coaching beefs. And I love
Speaker 1: the fact that Rivera responded immediately. I've been looking for
Speaker 1: that Buddy Ryan Jimmy Johnson kind of thing going on,
Speaker 1: and we don't have it anymore. But I will say this.
Speaker 1: I love the confidence of Mike McCarthy and he can't
Speaker 1: when either way it goes. If someone had ask him,
Speaker 1: you're guarantee to win this way, he didn't answer. All
Speaker 1: he doesn't have confidence in the squad. So it's a
Speaker 1: catch twenty two around here. You love him when he doesn't.
Speaker 1: You know, everything he does is under the microscope. But
Speaker 1: when he says something bold, you know, oh he should
Speaker 1: never Who is he to say to guarantee? Coaches over
Speaker 1: the years have guaranteed wins. Jimmy Johnson has done that before.
Speaker 1: I mean, hell, you think about boxing Muhammad Alisa, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna knock you out in around four. So, I mean, look,
Speaker 1: sometimes your mouth can write a check that your ass can't,
Speaker 1: but it draws. Hey. But when you hey, but when
Speaker 1: you got it, when you got the bulty to back
Speaker 1: it up. And when we go through that, when we
Speaker 1: go through the airport terminal, what we fly private anyway, Look,
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of there's gonna be a
Speaker 1: lot of metal detecting going off, man, because we're coming.
Speaker 1: Just bring your baby wipes, yeah, whatever you gotta bring,
Speaker 1: bring your hard hat, whatever you gotta do. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be a regardless. If he said that it was gonna
Speaker 1: be a battle regardless, it was gonna be that regardless.
Speaker 1: And I mean, I'm apologize I missed a what a
Speaker 1: River saying response. I got it right here. It is
Speaker 1: from Clarence Hill on Twitter responding yesterday. I think it
Speaker 1: was an in house media interview. He said, quote, he's
Speaker 1: trying to get in our head. He's trying to convince
Speaker 1: his team. He's now made it about him and that
Speaker 1: and what he said. It's not about his players anymore.
Speaker 1: I think it's a big mistake. We will show up
Speaker 1: on Sunday and see what happens from about it. And
Speaker 1: Mike was asked about Ron's comments this morning on the Fan,
Speaker 1: and I'm paraphrasing, but he said, basically, what kind of
Speaker 1: what Ron said, Like it's irrelevant what's being said about
Speaker 1: our team, Like he didn't seem to care. So this
Speaker 1: is why I like pro wrestling gas Right, It's more
Speaker 1: fun when there's a little bit of an edge, just
Speaker 1: sucking boxing or whatever. That just added an edge to this.
Speaker 1: If you if you need, if you needed anything extra
Speaker 1: for me, I just think it's it's all about having
Speaker 1: games in December with implications on things on the line. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it's not like you're you're not playing for nothing,
Speaker 1: and so both teams know where they are. You have
Speaker 1: a team that's fighting tooth and nail to get back
Speaker 1: in this thing, and you have a team that has
Speaker 1: been dominating from the first part of the season that's
Speaker 1: trying to get back to the dominating way. So I
Speaker 1: really believe if you look at this rivalry, if you
Speaker 1: want to call it that, over the years, it's been
Speaker 1: contentious the whole way through. It wouldn't it matter what
Speaker 1: he said? Yeah, I mean even going back to last
Speaker 1: year and the dominant dominance that Washington had. I think
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of discontent from the Cowboys side there.
Speaker 1: Who has the confidence advantage coming into this game? That's
Speaker 1: a great question. One team's won four straight, like Hackma said,
Speaker 1: and the other team has been winning it. We got
Speaker 1: the confidence in what you talk. We got the confidence
Speaker 1: advantage is zail. It's us. I got Dax quote what
Speaker 1: Dax say? What Dack said? You got a bleep ready
Speaker 1: for it? Go for it? Prison? That was it? Oh belief? Yeah, yes, yeah, yes, yeah?
Speaker 1: Oh man. So but that I mean, that's a that's
Speaker 1: A valid question is what's this needed from Mike McCarthy.
Speaker 1: Was this sentence, I mean, words have powerful, They're very powerful.
Speaker 1: Wasn't needed to light that fire? For him to say
Speaker 1: that in front of the media is saying, hey, we
Speaker 1: do need an edge going into this matchup because of
Speaker 1: the edge that Washington already has. I like, I like
Speaker 1: to cook on a grill. Even though I'm vegetarian now,
Speaker 1: I still like to get on the grill, and it's
Speaker 1: a lot easier to start cooking when you got a firestarter.
Speaker 1: You know, it's a lot easier when instead of just
Speaker 1: putting some paper in there on all that jazz, when
Speaker 1: you got a firestarter that gets things going relatively quickly.
Speaker 1: I think that's exactly what he was trying to be
Speaker 1: for this team right now. I think he was trying
Speaker 1: to be the firestarter to get the Dallas Cowboys repped
Speaker 1: repped up for this NFC East run because he understands
Speaker 1: how important these next games are. We've been talking a
Speaker 1: week about matching intensity, knowing that Washington is going to
Speaker 1: come after us like they did last year. It was
Speaker 1: what we could not do last year. A twenty twenty
Speaker 1: could not match their intensity and this is the time, obviously,
Speaker 1: if we want to take that next step and we'll
Speaker 1: talk about games with implications and looking into the playoffs.
Speaker 1: You got a match intensity this, you gotta ramp it
Speaker 1: up and it's time for that. Mike said something yesterday
Speaker 1: to the fact also of like we know what everybody
Speaker 1: thinks of us. It's kind of it was in us
Speaker 1: against the world type of message he was he was saying,
Speaker 1: and he said on the radio that it wasn't like
Speaker 1: a planned thing that for him to say that. Yesterday
Speaker 1: he said, there were a lot of big picture questions
Speaker 1: being asked and I wasn't. I wasn't in the room,
Speaker 1: but the vibe I got when I watched it back
Speaker 1: was there's a lot of questions, specifically about the offense
Speaker 1: not being able to run effectively enough wide receivers not
Speaker 1: getting separation. And I'm not saying he got defensive necessarily,
Speaker 1: but it was almost like, yeah, like hey, hang on
Speaker 1: a sec, like we are that team still. He felt
Speaker 1: like it was necessary to put that message through the media.
Speaker 1: It's very interesting. I mean, Jason Garrett would have never know.
Speaker 1: That's why I think it really kind of surprised people
Speaker 1: a little bit and I don't think he was being
Speaker 1: disrespect back, but he was sure as hell. I can't
Speaker 1: think of confidence coaching. What coach right now would have
Speaker 1: said something like that. I would say some of these
Speaker 1: younger head coaches out there, McVeigh wouldn't have said it. McVey,
Speaker 1: I bet you McVeigh would say, that's known the lights
Speaker 1: and fires every now and she says it, Who would
Speaker 1: you say? I can't think of anything. I can't either. No,
Speaker 1: That's why that's for me as i'm as I'm digested.
Speaker 1: He's the one guy that if he if he said
Speaker 1: that you, oh, no, he would never. He would never.
Speaker 1: I mean he Mike Tomlin's I see him saying it either,
Speaker 1: say Chris, I was gonna say he was asked after
Speaker 1: that question about guaranteeing and win. McCarthy was and he
Speaker 1: basically said, he goes. You guys, you realize I go
Speaker 1: into every game thinking we're gonna win the game. So
Speaker 1: that's just my mente. And that's a good point, Chris,
Speaker 1: because some of it's semantics. He put it in. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it wasn't. It wasn't Jimmy Johnson. Johnson and he has
Speaker 1: said forms of that in the past, like we're going
Speaker 1: in expecting to win this game. But that was yeah,
Speaker 1: it was say it was pretty matter of fact, it
Speaker 1: was guarantee, it was. And I mean then their whole field,
Speaker 1: like their whole coaching foundation this year is around victory.
Speaker 1: I mean that you see that word everywhere around here.
Speaker 1: So that's why someone's the difference between having internal conversations
Speaker 1: and external conversation just two separate things. See. But that's
Speaker 1: why I'm saying, I think this is this was on purpose.
Speaker 1: Even though he said it wasn't planned, I still think
Speaker 1: it was on perfect so too, because you don't you
Speaker 1: don't the coaches as we as I asked that question,
Speaker 1: what other coaches would come out and say that, you wouldn't, right,
Speaker 1: not most coaches wouldn't. It's very I think it was intentional.
Speaker 1: I think it was intentional. I don't know, I don't
Speaker 1: know if I think. I mean, I feel like it's intentional,
Speaker 1: but I feel like I feel like it was a response,
Speaker 1: like a reaction. Yeah, I feel I feel like, you know,
Speaker 1: somebody's pressure question. He didn't go into a saying I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say this, but he was just like, hey man,
Speaker 1: you're too close. Fine, you know you know, just think
Speaker 1: I think that was his response, like, bro, enough is enough,
Speaker 1: like get up off me? And by the way, though,
Speaker 1: I think those are fair questions, like asking about the offense,
Speaker 1: asking about why they haven't gotten things rolling a little bit.
Speaker 1: It's a it's a it's a weird kind of vibe
Speaker 1: around this team, not internally, but just the fact that
Speaker 1: they're eight and four, but they haven't played well to
Speaker 1: their standard the last six weeks since the buy basically
Speaker 1: not especially offensively, not to what they think they can be.
Speaker 1: They're the most under They're the most underestimated eight and
Speaker 1: four team in the league right now. There are a
Speaker 1: ton of teams out there that are eight and four
Speaker 1: that everybody is like, oh my god, you know they're
Speaker 1: gonna make a run there. I mean, we're not. The
Speaker 1: only way is that though. I mean it's just the haters.
Speaker 1: I mean, we got plenty of people that's gonna hate
Speaker 1: on the Cowboys no matter what they do. Tampa's lost
Speaker 1: to the football team. Nobody's saying, oh that that's a
Speaker 1: tail tail sign that Tom Brady's not ready. You know,
Speaker 1: nobody jumped out of the cake with that win. So
Speaker 1: but I think it inconsistencies. I really do think it
Speaker 1: goes back to the inconsistencies. And when when Tampa loses
Speaker 1: like that and Tom Brady has a has a three
Speaker 1: interception game, it's like, no, well he doesn't do that.
Speaker 1: But you know what I'm saying, like that TV twelve
Speaker 1: doesn't do that, so that you can gotta right benefit
Speaker 1: of the doubt. Benefit of the doubt absolutely because of
Speaker 1: his history. But right when doesn't get that? This team
Speaker 1: does not get that. But why when you why I
Speaker 1: haven't shown that consistently? When why when you go through
Speaker 1: a six game winning street and you and you wait
Speaker 1: a minute, and you beat and you beat New England?
Speaker 1: Who is the toast of the town right now? When
Speaker 1: you have players right when you have everything statistically as
Speaker 1: far as your offense is top ten and still all
Speaker 1: Dax out of rhythm, tacks hurt. This is that the
Speaker 1: number one, number two and scoring in yards, How the
Speaker 1: hell can you be conflicted about that? The proof is
Speaker 1: in the place. So that's when you start to have
Speaker 1: to ask the question, are you are you comparing ia
Speaker 1: say comparing, are you holding your your standards to the
Speaker 1: rest of the league, or you're holding your standards to
Speaker 1: what you have going on within your organization. That's why
Speaker 1: I'm not a big stat guy, because I don't give
Speaker 1: a dog on what everybody else is doing. I don't
Speaker 1: I don't care what everybody else to do. I care
Speaker 1: about what I know my team is capable of executing.
Speaker 1: And if they're not executing to that standard, then they're
Speaker 1: not meeting my standards for my team, regardless of what
Speaker 1: everybody else is doing. That's like, that's see, that's a
Speaker 1: sports psycho ologies that you know. It's blinders all and
Speaker 1: I get that, right, But you are judged by who
Speaker 1: everybody that's around you, and no matter what these guys say,
Speaker 1: they're looking around at the rest of the league. You
Speaker 1: can control what you can control, right, That's what most
Speaker 1: coaches talk about, But you're only judge based off of
Speaker 1: the teams that are around you know, and I'm saying
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are in that tier. You can't just say, oh,
Speaker 1: they're eighting for but then here's here's December like they
Speaker 1: used to December stretches coming. The Cowboys will implode. Nobody's
Speaker 1: saying that they're not even coaching are are speaking about
Speaker 1: that around here in the community. I feel like their
Speaker 1: confidence levels should be high. They should feel like, right now,
Speaker 1: we have a schedule, we have a team that's getting
Speaker 1: healthy and blinders on damn what everybody else say. We're
Speaker 1: gonna go out here. We're gonna beat the brakes off
Speaker 1: of everybody that step in front of us. And I
Speaker 1: think that's what made this so explosive for Mike McCarthy
Speaker 1: is that one of those blinders came down for a
Speaker 1: flip second in front of the media and the bubble pop.
Speaker 1: Let it, let it go, and everybody got to hear it.
Speaker 1: And Ron Rivera of course picked it up as well.
Speaker 1: It's a fun conversation to have though, because man, it
Speaker 1: does add an edge to this matchup. No, I want
Speaker 1: to see the eye contact between those guys across the
Speaker 1: field before the game, hand train stare down have like
Speaker 1: the offensive liners and defensive mine. Right, Yeah, Mike mccarthell
Speaker 1: row run vera ride with my coach, saying with your
Speaker 1: chats at while I like it. All right, let's take
Speaker 1: our first break when we come back, let's continue previewing
Speaker 1: this matchup. Ro Pee Island gives his ideas on what's
Speaker 1: going to happen on Sunday when we return with more
Speaker 1: talking cowboys. There's nothing as unique as our eyes, which
Speaker 1: is why SLOR pioneers ways to make lenses as unique

Speaker 1: we get into our second segment here do you want
Speaker 1: to send our condolences and our thoughts and our prayers
Speaker 1: horrific news Last night, Marius Thomas Thomas, former wide receiver
Speaker 1: for the Denver Broncos, played with the Texans for a
Speaker 1: little bit as well. Uh passed away at the age
Speaker 1: of thirty three. Was in the NFL for ten seasons,
Speaker 1: and he was just that. He was a star. And
Speaker 1: he passed away way too young last night at his home.
Speaker 1: So wanted to pass that along in our thoughts and prayers.
Speaker 1: I mean, he was a monster receiver. He was as
Speaker 1: good as they come. Yeah, he was. He came in
Speaker 1: kind of around the same time as does and it
Speaker 1: was kind of they were two of the very top
Speaker 1: receivers in the league. Two the most explosive receivers in
Speaker 1: the league. It's just it's just awful news. Did you
Speaker 1: get a chance to play against them at all? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I play against something. He's an amazing athlete. I just
Speaker 1: hate I hate seeing these stories. You know, the older
Speaker 1: I get, the more the more of these stories to
Speaker 1: come across, and just it just sucks. Man. Yea, what
Speaker 1: do you think about the barriers? I mean, obviously, uh
Speaker 1: going too soon, Uh young, still with so much life
Speaker 1: ahead of him. What I really admired about his story
Speaker 1: was him and his mother. If you have time to
Speaker 1: what he did with getting his mother released from prison. Um, so,
Speaker 1: you know, outstanding story. Outstanding person, but gone too soon.
Speaker 1: And that's why it's important to live your life every day.
Speaker 1: That's why it's important man to just you know, do
Speaker 1: what's right and be good to people. Man, we got
Speaker 1: too much stuff like this happening. And when you know
Speaker 1: stuff like this happens, it makes you reflect on everything
Speaker 1: that you're doing. Yep, cherish every single day and of course,
Speaker 1: don't hold grudges, have some fun, and of course live
Speaker 1: your life and be nice to other people. I love that.
Speaker 1: That's a great message. And Damarius Thomas, gone too soon.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about this matchup. Rob, you haven't been here
Speaker 1: the last couple of days, so I wanted to give
Speaker 1: you an opportunity to kind of talk about this Washington matchup.
Speaker 1: Which one do you think is more imperative to a
Speaker 1: Cowboys win, the Cowboys offense or the Cowboys defense having
Speaker 1: the success against the vice versa. I think it just
Speaker 1: comes down to the offense getting back on track. And
Speaker 1: you know, Washington has found a way to win these
Speaker 1: games lately ugly, and I just kind of see that
Speaker 1: happening again, kind of an ugly game where you know
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are gonna have They're gonna be challenged again
Speaker 1: to run the football. I think defensively they're giving up
Speaker 1: an average of like four point one yards a carry,
Speaker 1: and that's what the Cowboys have average per carry the
Speaker 1: last six games when they've struggled to run the football
Speaker 1: under one hundred yards. Now. They took a step forward
Speaker 1: against the Saints with a couple of big plays, but
Speaker 1: between the tackles it hasn't been there. Can they get
Speaker 1: that established in this game maybe the most important thing,
Speaker 1: and I don't know if I didn't get to listen
Speaker 1: to all the show the last two days. To me,
Speaker 1: it might just be can they get things going on
Speaker 1: the outside in the passing game and throw teams out
Speaker 1: of that the looks that they're getting the game that's
Speaker 1: being lost during the stretch is the fact that they
Speaker 1: won by forty points against the Falcons and they didn't
Speaker 1: run the ball that well in that game, but they
Speaker 1: threw the hell out of the ball in that game.
Speaker 1: And if they can get back to that, especially with
Speaker 1: all three receivers back playing full snaploads, that might be
Speaker 1: what's the most key to getting Bacco trek. Well you
Speaker 1: think about that, man, I think you spot on and
Speaker 1: just in piggybacking on that, if you had listened to
Speaker 1: the Amark Cooper Show yesterday, Amark Cooper alluded to the
Speaker 1: fact that these three receivers hadn't had any time together,
Speaker 1: saying that the time that we had has been limited,
Speaker 1: whether it be through injuries or just not a full
Speaker 1: slate there to just kind of judge these guys together.
Speaker 1: So I'm excited to see them healthy together and what
Speaker 1: they can do. I think that there's going to be
Speaker 1: a lot of opportunity, like you just said, on the
Speaker 1: outside with the Washington football team. But I also believe
Speaker 1: that because you're playing this team so close together, you're
Speaker 1: going to have to establish the line of scrimmage. That's
Speaker 1: just the physicality of this game. You cannot I just
Speaker 1: don't believe that you can go into this game saying
Speaker 1: that we're gonna throw the ball fifty times. You've got
Speaker 1: to be physical upfront and run the ball to a fault.
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to hear that, but you've got to get
Speaker 1: this thing established, not on the outside, but inside the tackles.
Speaker 1: You've got to get it established. Totally agree. I agree
Speaker 1: that's that's sounds good. It sounds good, but I don't
Speaker 1: know the health of Zeke right now. The last time
Speaker 1: we saw Zeke, he did not look good. We did,
Speaker 1: he did not look good. He's had ten He's gonna
Speaker 1: have ten days off by the time the game approaches,
Speaker 1: so hopefully he's a lot healthier than he was. But
Speaker 1: if Zeke is the same as what he was the
Speaker 1: last time we saw him, and there is a high
Speaker 1: probability that there's no TP, where does the run game
Speaker 1: come from in reality? So I think you go into
Speaker 1: this game thinking that we want to try to get
Speaker 1: the run game going, but understanding that the reality is
Speaker 1: we're probably going to throw this ball fifty times in
Speaker 1: order to win this ball game. We've talked about establishing
Speaker 1: the run being a key to winning this football game,
Speaker 1: and of course it is. But do you think having
Speaker 1: those three wide receivers healthy again, Yes, can outweigh the
Speaker 1: limitations that you might have in your backfield with not
Speaker 1: so healthy Zeke not so healthy policy. It can because
Speaker 1: your your receivers are better than their dbs. That's facts. However,
Speaker 1: every time you put the ball in the air, there's
Speaker 1: a higher probability of you having a turnover than it
Speaker 1: is when you have the ball in the hands of
Speaker 1: one of your running backs, so that's also a reality.
Speaker 1: So I don't like the idea of throwing the ball
Speaker 1: fifty times because three turnovers. Two three turnovers changed the
Speaker 1: tide to the game. So I would like to see
Speaker 1: a running game. And I don't know about Corey Clemmons.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I haven't seen him running the ball
Speaker 1: in a while. I'm sure he's fully capable, but I'm
Speaker 1: pretty sure we'll see him and we'll have an idea
Speaker 1: of what he can do. And in this game. Does
Speaker 1: it make you feel any better that Dak has sixteen
Speaker 1: touchdowns and just one interception against the Washington football team
Speaker 1: in his career. Like I said, past tense means nothing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: test help you feel a little bit better. He's dominated
Speaker 1: Washington in the past. He has, But again, Dak has
Speaker 1: not been dack since he came back from the calf,
Speaker 1: so he's got He still has a show his team
Speaker 1: first of all, show his team that he is capable
Speaker 1: of making the throws that everybody knows that he's capable
Speaker 1: of making. And he and just the flashes that we
Speaker 1: saw last week. Is it's not good enough? It's not? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: If it's if it's let's say Tony does play. If
Speaker 1: it's you know, fifty yards for Tony forty five physique,
Speaker 1: you've established a running game to me, and especially with
Speaker 1: the way that we've been passing the ball. When you
Speaker 1: say established the run. When I say established the running game,
Speaker 1: I'm not saying one hundred, fifty hundred and seventy yards
Speaker 1: or what Dalvin Cook did last night with two hundred
Speaker 1: and five yards. I love that, you know, and it
Speaker 1: makes everything else that you do so much easier. That's
Speaker 1: all on pimportant too. To those we've been coming in
Speaker 1: here every Monday talking about how bad they've been on
Speaker 1: third down. Third down has not been our friend. But
Speaker 1: that means we have to be better on first down
Speaker 1: and we have to be better on second down. Well,
Speaker 1: how do you do that? And Kellen Moore has gotten
Speaker 1: a little bit out of rhythm with his play calling,
Speaker 1: and I would like to attribute that to the with
Speaker 1: the injuries that they have. Now you have everybody back,
Speaker 1: what's going to be the excuse? Now you have to
Speaker 1: put something together. Otherwise teams will just pinning their ears
Speaker 1: back and come after you if they recognize, oh, you
Speaker 1: can't do anything to us in a running game. So
Speaker 1: as soon as we get here on Monday, if it
Speaker 1: is indeed a Cowboys loss, which we'll talk about that
Speaker 1: in the next segment, whether we think that's happening, is
Speaker 1: that going to be the conversation is what is the
Speaker 1: excuse now for Kellen Moore? Because, like you said, I
Speaker 1: agree with you by the way, I think you get
Speaker 1: these three receivers back, and you have them healthy in
Speaker 1: the same practice for a week at a time, ten
Speaker 1: days at a time. Now you have an opportunity to
Speaker 1: throw them out there and it's not just a thrown
Speaker 1: together thing. I think they will have a large impact
Speaker 1: on this game. You saw how they could have an
Speaker 1: impact against the Saints. But it does worry me how
Speaker 1: limited Zeke Impollard could be because I feel like from
Speaker 1: that playbook that Kellen Moore has, it's this big shrinks
Speaker 1: a little bit whenever those two guys aren't what they
Speaker 1: usually are. Yeah, but if the offensive line to x
Speaker 1: point can get some win the line of scrimmage and
Speaker 1: be physical and open things up, it doesn't necessarily matter
Speaker 1: who's running back there. I mean. And that's look, they've
Speaker 1: they've had all these different combinations since the bye week,
Speaker 1: and I think they're still looking for the right combination there.
Speaker 1: You know, change out left guard, right tackle has been
Speaker 1: a rotation. It hasn't been the same you know since
Speaker 1: early in the season, you know, pass blocking or run blocking.
Speaker 1: And I think that's affected DAC little bit as well. Um,
Speaker 1: so they got to get back to that. I go
Speaker 1: back to the Monday Night game. What Mac Jones throw
Speaker 1: it three times in that game? Three they just and
Speaker 1: what the first touchdown they had it was a long
Speaker 1: touchdown run. Ten guys for the Bills were in the box,
Speaker 1: and they still they blocked it up because all it
Speaker 1: takes is one guy out of his gap, you know,
Speaker 1: to get it going. So they just got to get
Speaker 1: back to that. And they've talked about, look, we have
Speaker 1: to be better. We're not handling the movement by the
Speaker 1: defensive line as well. They've got to block it up better.
Speaker 1: They've said that themselves. That's that's running to a fault
Speaker 1: the Monday Night game. That's what I'm saying. Time, We're
Speaker 1: not gonna stop running it. You can't stop us. We
Speaker 1: will get a hat on a hat m I like
Speaker 1: that idea, all right, before we head to this final
Speaker 1: break and we go to our pickums. We have some
Speaker 1: housekeeping to do. Rob Phillips last week picked the New
Speaker 1: York Giants on this show to beats who was at
Speaker 1: the Saints that they played, Dolphins the Dolphins that they played.
Speaker 1: He beat the New York Giants. However, he did send
Speaker 1: a text message prior to kick off, old prior to
Speaker 1: kick off, wanting to flip that game. Now. He also
Speaker 1: wanted to change the Cowboys pick. We didn't let him
Speaker 1: do that. If you say the Cowboys pick off, it's
Speaker 1: locked in played either way, you're fine. Yeah, but the
Speaker 1: fact that you brought up that you wanted to switch
Speaker 1: your pick once they figured out the Daniel Daniel Jones
Speaker 1: was not available. I wanted to leave it up to
Speaker 1: you guys. Heck my already gave his answer. It's a
Speaker 1: big exactly that's what that's what you said message. But oh,
Speaker 1: are we going to allow Rob to take that game back?
Speaker 1: So that's a no, Chris, you'll be the deciding factor,
Speaker 1: yes or no? Take them No, I'm listening, I'm about
Speaker 1: to make a phone call. Yes. Um, so yeah, he
Speaker 1: could take the game back. Oh, Chris, what are you
Speaker 1: talking about? How can he take that he was, he's
Speaker 1: locked in. Once. We're locked in right here, guys, this
Speaker 1: is locked Also pick games on like Tuesday last week.
Speaker 1: You know what I will. I will concede you conceed,
Speaker 1: but I will say that that made a big difference.
Speaker 1: It does make a big difference. But hey, you know whatever. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll make it up. I'll make it up about that.
Speaker 1: Staying with your chest my guarantee. That's my guarantee for
Speaker 1: the week. I like it's this week. Okay. So, now
Speaker 1: that it has been decided that Rob Phillips does not
Speaker 1: get that game back, there is a three way tie
Speaker 1: for second place in our standings. We're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: it when we come back here. I'm talking cowboys. I

Speaker 1: Another good week for heck Ma Harrison and then I'm
Speaker 1: at the top forty six and twenty eight. I had
Speaker 1: pick for him five and one five in one week.
Speaker 1: Last week, welcome to the show. Five games back. Well,
Speaker 1: yeah you're getting there. Welcome to the show. My girlfriend Lorena. Everybody, hello, hello,
Speaker 1: hell yeah. How's it going. So this came up earlier
Speaker 1: in the week that you were going to represent the
Speaker 1: fans because basically at a conversation, it was like, we
Speaker 1: need to just get her on the show. So we
Speaker 1: got her on the show. She's gonna represent the fans.
Speaker 1: Last week, Kyle and Jersey went two and four, No, no, no,
Speaker 1: number one. He went three and three overall, So a
Speaker 1: pretty decent week for Kyle in Jersey. But Lorena, you've
Speaker 1: got six games that you're gonna have to pick. What's up?
Speaker 1: I say, think we should put stipulation on this. Why
Speaker 1: is it? I feel as if because they spend so
Speaker 1: much time together, I feel as if they should not
Speaker 1: be allowed to agree on fifty percent or more of
Speaker 1: the games today gotta go half and half. I like
Speaker 1: that because you because you believe that Kyle has prepped her. Yea,
Speaker 1: I actually honestly all yeah, Actually I texted her the
Speaker 1: games last night, and I have not talked to her
Speaker 1: about it at all. Okay, but if we're in a Zigs,
Speaker 1: you got a Zach at least at least at the time.
Speaker 1: So three games, I've got to go different than than Lorena. Okay, Okay.
Speaker 1: So that so Lorena is picking before me on every
Speaker 1: single occasion this week. So that's how we're gonna do it,
Speaker 1: all right, Lorena, you will start first on this one.
Speaker 1: Let's start with the let me pull up the game. Sorry, everybody,
Speaker 1: keep tabs busy, keeping the tabs. All right, Let's start
Speaker 1: with the Raiders at the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium. Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes and company taken on Derek Carr No Waller again
Speaker 1: for Las Vegas. Lorena, who you guy? I am definitely
Speaker 1: picking the Chiefs. They're on their five game winning shriek
Speaker 1: and I think that clearly they're the better team and
Speaker 1: they're definitely going to hand Vegas a fifth loss in
Speaker 1: six games. Go Patrick Mahomes. She I'm telling you, she
Speaker 1: knows her stuff. All right. I'm gonna take the Chiefs
Speaker 1: here as well. So there's one of my three games,
Speaker 1: I'm taking that one. I'm gonna take the Chiefs here.
Speaker 1: Probably gotta go Chiefs Pat Mahomes. Okay, I'm gonna make
Speaker 1: a game up here because because Vegas has beaten the
Speaker 1: Chiefs in Arrowhead last year in December, I'm going with
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. You faked it all out, all right? The
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints at the New York Jets. Heckmo will
Speaker 1: start with you on this one. Whoof this is somewhere
Speaker 1: a toilet has flushed. I'm gonna go with the Saints
Speaker 1: on this one. Okay, Yeah, it's in New York. Zach
Speaker 1: Wilson is back for New York. By the way, New York,
Speaker 1: you're gonna take the Jets. Yeah, okay, give me the
Speaker 1: Saints defense on the road. Okay, Lorena go first on
Speaker 1: this one. All right, we'll passing. You're welcome, Kyle, because
Speaker 1: this is gonna be my hot take. I am gonna
Speaker 1: pick the Jets. I know they lost Tory Davis to
Speaker 1: a season ending injury, but like you said, Zach Wilson
Speaker 1: is back. He looks really promising last game, three touchdowns
Speaker 1: in the first half. His defense couldn't help him at all,
Speaker 1: and so they kind of got slammed by the Eagles there.
Speaker 1: But I'm thinking he's mad. I'm thinking with Taysom Hill's finger,
Speaker 1: injury time, nervous to the Cowboys for each other. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you it's right. So she's picking the Jets.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick the Saints even with the injuries. But
Speaker 1: I love your reasoning there because it's fantastic ballot fan fantastic.
Speaker 1: All right, Falcons, Falcons at the Panthers, Isaiah, who you
Speaker 1: got on this one? So I'm still bambooso, are you? Okay?
Speaker 1: Falcons at who the Panthers? Where's it at? It's in Well,
Speaker 1: it's at the Panthers. Atlanta has outscored, has been outscored
Speaker 1: one twelve to forty one since Week ten. At the
Speaker 1: NFL with Carolina, Okay, Caroline has kind of been shambles too.
Speaker 1: You got here fired, Joe Brady. That was that was weird.
Speaker 1: That wasn't response after a fire? Yeah? Give me Caroline
Speaker 1: at home? Okay. Oh, I'm one the Falcons. I'm one
Speaker 1: of falcons right here. Falcons, Lorena, who you got on
Speaker 1: this one? I'm going Panthers here, Panthers here. So I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go Falcons on the other side. So there's my
Speaker 1: second game that I've picked. Difference, He sounded more disappointed
Speaker 1: about that one here, Yeah, a little bit. I kind
Speaker 1: of wanted to pick the Carolina Panthers there, So that
Speaker 1: one's that one's hard. All right, Lorena will start with
Speaker 1: you on this one. Forty nine Ers at the Bengals. Okay,
Speaker 1: I think, um, with all of the injuries that San
Speaker 1: Francisco has, the Bengals are gonna win at home. Oh okay,
Speaker 1: roight man, I dah Bengals Spingles. I'm always wrong about
Speaker 1: the Bengals, but I'll take them one more time. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the Bengals here too. So now I'm
Speaker 1: two and two. I gotta get one more in West
Speaker 1: West coast, the best coast. Hey, you're going with San
Speaker 1: fran here, Okay. I happen to watch the Bengals lose
Speaker 1: a really bad one against the Chargers last week. Is
Speaker 1: that they had that game and they just found a
Speaker 1: way to just completely with the bed. I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: forty nine. Lookie there, look you there. All right. We'll
Speaker 1: start with Rob on this one. Rams at the Cardinals.
Speaker 1: Huge game in the NFC in Arizona. Going to be
Speaker 1: a lot of fun game. Man, that's gonna be yeah, right,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a lot of fun. Rob God, give
Speaker 1: me the Rams. Give me the Rams. They lost three straight.
Speaker 1: The league's designed to kind of bounce back at some point.
Speaker 1: Give me La Lorena. I'm going Cardinals here. I think
Speaker 1: picking the Rams on the road is risky. Oh it is?
Speaker 1: It very much? Is I? Um? Kyler Murray was actually
Speaker 1: at the wedding venue that I work at for a
Speaker 1: wedding preseason, and I think that I blest him with
Speaker 1: good luck this season, which is why they're playing so well.
Speaker 1: So I gotta go with Kyler. They are ten and two,
Speaker 1: so maybe that's why. Who's superstitious? Yeah, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: made for each other. I'm superstitious. Is this at the
Speaker 1: same time? I don't step on the line, so yeah?
Speaker 1: Is it on me? Yeah? Okay? Sorry? Uh yeah? Rams? Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: this is a tough This is a tough one, and
Speaker 1: you did this on purpose. Um, I'm gonna go Cardinals.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Cardinals. I'm going with Larry because she
Speaker 1: gave him the luck. Okay, we're going with the horned Sheep.
Speaker 1: All right, Rams, I'm with you. I'm gonna go with
Speaker 1: the Rams too. So now I've differed on three games,
Speaker 1: so I'm good to go. I couldn't wait for this
Speaker 1: last one to let it come down to the wire,
Speaker 1: so I'm going with the Rams. Yeah, exactly. So all
Speaker 1: right here it is all boys at the Washington football team.
Speaker 1: Who's gonna come out on top in this one? Isaiah
Speaker 1: slunching in his chair, slouches chair about is this the
Speaker 1: Christmas Tree game? He is about to do it. I
Speaker 1: can feel it as he's asking about the Christmas Tree? No,
Speaker 1: the Cardinals? Cardinals? Is the Christmas Tree even though it's
Speaker 1: after Christmas? Is it? Yeah? It's after we're gonna do.
Speaker 1: We'll do Washington when they come back. Okay, all right, Uh, Lorena,
Speaker 1: that's also after Christmas, Danny, Jim, Christmas. You're a used
Speaker 1: all three yours? I've used all three? Yeah, feel pretty good? Right?
Speaker 1: All right? Lorena? Who you got on this one? Are
Speaker 1: we doing scores here too? Yes? Scores please? Okay? Um,
Speaker 1: So I'm obviously picking the Cowboys. I think it's going
Speaker 1: to be a really toe to toe matchup. Um. I
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a difficult game. I don't think
Speaker 1: it's gonna be an easy win. But I do think
Speaker 1: that I'm gonna put my trust in QB one. I
Speaker 1: think Jack is gonna do much better um than Heidechie,
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna go with the Cowboys seventeen to fourteen.
Speaker 1: Oh ugly game. I like it. Like you said, it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a defensive matchup. Gotta get those wins. Lorena,
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us today. Love you. We'll
Speaker 1: talk to you soon. You guys, thank you. That's that
Speaker 1: got awkward fast. And you know what, I love her.
Speaker 1: She's the best. She's dope. Yeah, she said QB one.
Speaker 1: She didn't even say that. She knows her stuff. She
Speaker 1: knows hers. Some of the facts that she gave for
Speaker 1: the summary of each game before we got into it
Speaker 1: was awesome, big facts. She read her nose word for her.
Speaker 1: You stop in right, you're gonna get me in trouble.
Speaker 1: I didn't even do that, all right, Rob Got I'm
Speaker 1: with Raina. I think it's gonna be kind of low
Speaker 1: scoring game. The Cowboys. I can go with them again
Speaker 1: because I keep saying offense if they've got the most talent,
Speaker 1: and I think eventually it's gonna go through. But I
Speaker 1: think this might be another low scoring game, I'll go
Speaker 1: Cowboys twenty three twenty. I'll leave it to the end
Speaker 1: of the table, so I'll say Cowboys. I'm gonna say
Speaker 1: a little bit more high scoring than than those two.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say thirty one twenty seven because I think
Speaker 1: this defense is gonna give up some points too. I
Speaker 1: think they're gonna run for probably one hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: close to two hundred yards in this game, But the
Speaker 1: Cowboys gonna win. You want heck, I gonna go first?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Oh, it's not a problem. I'm all about it. Hey, Um,
Speaker 1: Before I go, I just gotta say, Scott Purcell is
Speaker 1: running the White Rock Marathon, and I'm telling you he
Speaker 1: is the last guy in the world that you would
Speaker 1: have ever expected to be running the marathon and he
Speaker 1: is doing it. So proud of you, Scott. You need
Speaker 1: you need to add play a Circle Duffel Bag Boys
Speaker 1: to your playlist because I know it's not there and
Speaker 1: it's gonna get you through the lake. Run. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: love it. He go like, what is this I'm listened to?
Speaker 1: And that's a full marathon? Twenty six point two. Ain't
Speaker 1: doing the half he doing on the full things It Scott.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you we got the locator. We're gonna be
Speaker 1: following him the whole time. Hey, if you stopped for
Speaker 1: a long time, we coming, Scott, were coming. We're coming
Speaker 1: for you. But no, this is the game. This is
Speaker 1: the game Sunday. Yeah, it's a game that we have
Speaker 1: to win. You guys know that this is for the marbles,
Speaker 1: for the NFC East. Obviously we got to play these
Speaker 1: guys again, but they dominated us last year. We gotta
Speaker 1: make up for it. So I'm seeing Cowboys with the
Speaker 1: dub and I'm going thirty burger on this. I think
Speaker 1: we do put it on them. I'll go thirty five
Speaker 1: dominating performance by the defense seventeen. I like it with
Speaker 1: this one. Yeah, they win, ugly, man, That's what they've
Speaker 1: been doing Washington and then at home and they're at home. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's still gonna be Cowboys heavy, though there's gonna be
Speaker 1: a lot of Cowboys fans in that building. Don't do it.
Speaker 1: Don't do it my mind, he's telling me. Man, honestly,
Speaker 1: feel this can go either way. I don't think that
Speaker 1: the Dallas is gonna have even a reflection of a
Speaker 1: run game at all. All right, twenty four twenty. Jesus,
Speaker 1: do it, He's real. Do it. Damn it, man, you
Speaker 1: want to do it. I do want to do it.
Speaker 1: Do it? Say what I will say twenty Dallas. Oh,
Speaker 1: you can't say it like that. You gotta say it
Speaker 1: with your chest. I don't have the chest right now.
Speaker 1: You're not This game worries me. Well we get a call.
Speaker 1: All I'm saying is you gonna know. I don't do that.

Speaker 1: will own up Saturday night, eleven o'clock. It's already precedent here.
Speaker 1: Once you lock it in in this studio, it's locks
Speaker 1: like damn, we've already established I don't feel confident with it.
