Someone who has had their passport stamp to 18 00:01:08,868 --> 00:01:11,388 Speaker 1: go to the UK and who knows when she's coming back. 19 00:01:11,428 --> 00:01:14,948 Speaker 1: Stacy Dale's has everything covered from London. She is preparing 20 00:01:14,988 --> 00:01:17,308 Speaker 1: for this week's game Giants. Packer Stacy will be on 21 00:01:17,308 --> 00:01:20,108 Speaker 1: the sideline for that game with Laura Oakman. Stacy set 22 00:01:20,108 --> 00:01:21,948 Speaker 1: the scene for us though four days until kick off. 23 00:01:21,988 --> 00:01:24,748 Speaker 1: What is the status of the Giants starting quarterback Daniel 24 00:01:24,788 --> 00:01:26,868 Speaker 1: Jones as we get closer to that game. Well, I 25 00:01:26,868 --> 00:01:28,468 Speaker 1: think it's a reason for concern. I do have to 26 00:01:28,468 --> 00:01:30,908 Speaker 1: give you Jamie and company a shout out though, I mean, 27 00:01:30,948 --> 00:01:33,588 Speaker 1: the turnaround time has been amazing to kick things off 28 00:01:33,628 --> 00:01:35,348 Speaker 1: to start the week. It's great to see you back 29 00:01:35,548 --> 00:01:37,268 Speaker 1: in the chair. And I am coming to you guys 30 00:01:37,268 --> 00:01:41,228 Speaker 1: by the way from James's Park, Buckingham Palace. Beautiful stunning 31 00:01:41,268 --> 00:01:43,948 Speaker 1: shot right behind me. We just saw changing of the 32 00:01:43,988 --> 00:01:46,828 Speaker 1: Guard in all of its pageantry. These are the spots, 33 00:01:46,828 --> 00:01:48,748 Speaker 1: these are the hot spots, right where the tourists come. 34 00:01:48,788 --> 00:01:50,348 Speaker 1: I'm happy to be one here today. But we have 35 00:01:50,348 --> 00:01:52,908 Speaker 1: a football game, as you alluded to, Jamie, And what's 36 00:01:52,948 --> 00:01:54,908 Speaker 1: really cool is these are two three and one teams. 37 00:01:54,988 --> 00:01:57,188 Speaker 1: This is the first time in our London games that 38 00:01:57,228 --> 00:01:59,668 Speaker 1: we actually have two teams that are over five hundred 39 00:01:59,668 --> 00:02:01,468 Speaker 1: and the Packers and the Giants. But for these New 40 00:02:01,548 --> 00:02:04,868 Speaker 1: York football Giants at three and one, Daniel Jones concern. 41 00:02:04,908 --> 00:02:06,308 Speaker 1: This is the first time, by the way, they've been 42 00:02:06,308 --> 00:02:08,428 Speaker 1: three and one since twenty eleven. They did win a 43 00:02:08,468 --> 00:02:11,228 Speaker 1: Super Bowl that season, just saying Daniel Jones though, with 44 00:02:11,268 --> 00:02:13,868 Speaker 1: that left ankle injury that he sustained late in the 45 00:02:13,908 --> 00:02:17,348 Speaker 1: third quarter of that Bears victory, they took him out 46 00:02:17,588 --> 00:02:20,668 Speaker 1: to Rod Taylor comes in, he gets concussed, and then 47 00:02:20,708 --> 00:02:22,908 Speaker 1: the running back sae Quon Barkley comes in for some 48 00:02:22,948 --> 00:02:26,908 Speaker 1: snaps at quarterback. But in the toughness and all the 49 00:02:26,948 --> 00:02:29,508 Speaker 1: toughness that we know from Daniel Jones, he came back 50 00:02:29,508 --> 00:02:32,028 Speaker 1: in the game. He finished the game. They won the 51 00:02:32,068 --> 00:02:35,588 Speaker 1: football game against the Chicago Bears. He told us immediately 52 00:02:35,628 --> 00:02:37,828 Speaker 1: after that he was sore, but this is going to 53 00:02:37,908 --> 00:02:40,148 Speaker 1: be day to day. And I think this is significant 54 00:02:40,228 --> 00:02:43,668 Speaker 1: cause for concern because we don't know the severity. Is 55 00:02:43,668 --> 00:02:46,028 Speaker 1: it a Grade one two? Can't imagine it's a Grade 56 00:02:46,028 --> 00:02:48,468 Speaker 1: three because that would be a full ankle tear at 57 00:02:48,508 --> 00:02:51,308 Speaker 1: that ligament in terms of high ankle sprains, But again 58 00:02:51,388 --> 00:02:53,228 Speaker 1: we don't know. We all we know is it's a 59 00:02:53,308 --> 00:02:55,748 Speaker 1: sprained ankle. There are no fractures to Rod Taylor in 60 00:02:55,788 --> 00:02:58,988 Speaker 1: the concussion protocol. Could this be Davis web time is 61 00:02:59,028 --> 00:03:01,268 Speaker 1: the question. That would be his first start since being 62 00:03:01,348 --> 00:03:03,868 Speaker 1: drafted by the Giants by the way back in twenty seventeen. 63 00:03:03,988 --> 00:03:06,188 Speaker 1: A lot of storylines here like we had last week, 64 00:03:06,188 --> 00:03:08,628 Speaker 1: you guys with the quarterback position, happy that we have 65 00:03:08,788 --> 00:03:11,108 Speaker 1: you there cover. Would be one hell of a start 66 00:03:11,148 --> 00:03:15,348 Speaker 1: for Davis Webb, first game possibly across the pond. But Stacy, 67 00:03:15,428 --> 00:03:18,748 Speaker 1: the Packers are making their first ever trip to London. 68 00:03:18,988 --> 00:03:21,548 Speaker 1: We talked about last week. There's so many different ways 69 00:03:21,548 --> 00:03:24,028 Speaker 1: to do it. What are their plans for this week? Well, 70 00:03:24,068 --> 00:03:27,668 Speaker 1: if Davis Webb does start this football game, it doesn't 71 00:03:27,668 --> 00:03:30,108 Speaker 1: look great because he's gonna have to face Aaron Rodgers. 72 00:03:30,188 --> 00:03:32,268 Speaker 1: And this will be Aaron Rodgers. Can you guys believe this? 73 00:03:32,508 --> 00:03:34,868 Speaker 1: In all the eighteen years his first trip to London? 74 00:03:34,948 --> 00:03:37,268 Speaker 1: This is the first time the Green Bay Packers will 75 00:03:37,308 --> 00:03:40,548 Speaker 1: be coming over there, the final team of all thirty 76 00:03:40,548 --> 00:03:43,868 Speaker 1: two to compete in these international games. And I know 77 00:03:43,908 --> 00:03:46,268 Speaker 1: they're pumped at three and one, coming off that overtime 78 00:03:46,348 --> 00:03:49,228 Speaker 1: victory at home against the New England Patriots on a 79 00:03:49,308 --> 00:03:51,708 Speaker 1: field goal, and I think they feel pretty good about 80 00:03:51,748 --> 00:03:54,228 Speaker 1: where they're at. But like the Giants. You guys, they 81 00:03:54,468 --> 00:03:58,028 Speaker 1: have opted to fly out of their central time zone 82 00:03:58,188 --> 00:04:01,708 Speaker 1: in green Bay on Thursday evening, touching down here in 83 00:04:01,748 --> 00:04:04,188 Speaker 1: London on Friday. The Giants will leave New York on 84 00:04:04,428 --> 00:04:07,828 Speaker 1: Thursday evening and also touchdown here on Friday. Matt Lafleur 85 00:04:08,028 --> 00:04:10,668 Speaker 1: keeping things the head coach very close to the vest. 86 00:04:10,868 --> 00:04:13,748 Speaker 1: But I can't tell you. There's going to be one 87 00:04:13,868 --> 00:04:16,868 Speaker 1: major storyline in this game, and it's how this twenty 88 00:04:16,868 --> 00:04:20,668 Speaker 1: second ranked green Bay defense in terms of rush defense. 89 00:04:20,748 --> 00:04:23,988 Speaker 1: They are twenty second rush defense with Joe Barry as 90 00:04:24,028 --> 00:04:28,628 Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator, facing the best rushing offense in football 91 00:04:28,748 --> 00:04:31,988 Speaker 1: care of se Quon Barkley. You guys, they are averaging 92 00:04:32,148 --> 00:04:35,588 Speaker 1: the Giants one hundred and ninety three rush yards per game. 93 00:04:35,668 --> 00:04:38,708 Speaker 1: It has been fantastic to watch. Can the Packers shut 94 00:04:38,788 --> 00:04:40,628 Speaker 1: him down? Will be the question out a sold out 95 00:04:40,668 --> 00:04:43,828 Speaker 1: crowd at Tottenham. Absolutely, Stacy, thank you. Those are incredible 96 00:04:43,908 --> 00:04:45,588 Speaker 1: numbers for the Giants, though, a lot of which is 97 00:04:45,588 --> 00:04:47,268 Speaker 1: why they are three and one. Thanks, Stacy'll talk to 98 00:04:47,308 --> 00:04:49,148 Speaker 1: you in a little bit. So both of these teams 99 00:04:49,188 --> 00:04:51,028 Speaker 1: are three and one, yet it still feels like an 100 00:04:51,108 --> 00:04:53,468 Speaker 1: uphill battle for the New York Giants. A lot of 101 00:04:53,468 --> 00:04:55,468 Speaker 1: that has to do with Daniel Jones and that injury. 102 00:04:55,548 --> 00:04:58,508 Speaker 1: But how can the Giants pull off the upset against 103 00:04:58,508 --> 00:05:00,388 Speaker 1: the Packers on Sunday morning? Right here, the game that 104 00:05:00,388 --> 00:05:02,308 Speaker 1: you can see on NFL Network. Cole Jamie, you were 105 00:05:02,348 --> 00:05:04,868 Speaker 1: at maybe the greatest London game ever played. One's gonna 106 00:05:04,868 --> 00:05:06,148 Speaker 1: be that a lot of things are gonna have to happen. 107 00:05:06,148 --> 00:05:08,468 Speaker 1: On my way into work today, I just googled Daniel 108 00:05:08,548 --> 00:05:10,628 Speaker 1: Jones and the first article that comes up is like 109 00:05:10,668 --> 00:05:13,148 Speaker 1: the fan Sided blog, and the headline just says, Giants 110 00:05:13,188 --> 00:05:15,148 Speaker 1: have to be kidding me. With the quarterbacks they worked 111 00:05:15,148 --> 00:05:17,108 Speaker 1: out on Tuesday. That's where we're at. And we're talking 112 00:05:17,108 --> 00:05:19,068 Speaker 1: about Jake from and a J. McCarron, and those guys 113 00:05:19,068 --> 00:05:20,908 Speaker 1: are great pros and everything, but things are desperate, and 114 00:05:20,948 --> 00:05:23,108 Speaker 1: we're talking about Davis Webb going on London and playing 115 00:05:23,148 --> 00:05:25,268 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. Last week we had the oh my god, 116 00:05:25,348 --> 00:05:27,788 Speaker 1: is Aaron Rodgers gonna lose the Bailey Zappy game. We're 117 00:05:27,788 --> 00:05:29,388 Speaker 1: gonna need to have the oh my guy's gonna lose 118 00:05:29,388 --> 00:05:32,788 Speaker 1: a Davis Webb game. Kenny Galladay is out like officially now, 119 00:05:32,828 --> 00:05:35,668 Speaker 1: not just practically cold Darius Tony is hurt, Wan Dale 120 00:05:35,748 --> 00:05:37,908 Speaker 1: Robinson is hurt. So what are they gonna have to do? 121 00:05:38,068 --> 00:05:40,908 Speaker 1: In two thousand and seven, Adrian Peterson set the single 122 00:05:40,948 --> 00:05:42,948 Speaker 1: game rushing record rent for two hundred and ninety six 123 00:05:43,028 --> 00:05:45,188 Speaker 1: yards against the Chargers. We need to come knocking on 124 00:05:45,228 --> 00:05:47,868 Speaker 1: that door, say Quon Barkley. Let's go come out of 125 00:05:47,868 --> 00:05:50,348 Speaker 1: the prone booth with the three hundred yard rushing game. 126 00:05:50,468 --> 00:05:53,028 Speaker 1: If it's Davis Webb and look, Stacy's more plugged than 127 00:05:53,188 --> 00:05:54,948 Speaker 1: I am. But I saw Daniel Jones grab his ankle 128 00:05:54,948 --> 00:05:56,228 Speaker 1: and go down. That doesn't look like a guy who's 129 00:05:56,228 --> 00:05:58,388 Speaker 1: gonna get on a plane for seven hours and then play. 130 00:05:58,628 --> 00:06:00,188 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be Davis Webb, and I think 131 00:06:00,188 --> 00:06:02,228 Speaker 1: it's gonna be sa que lap stake one right. But 132 00:06:02,228 --> 00:06:04,828 Speaker 1: it's also kind of an interesting story about Brian day One. 133 00:06:04,828 --> 00:06:07,148 Speaker 1: What he's capable of, how deep is his bag? How 134 00:06:07,188 --> 00:06:09,788 Speaker 1: creative can he be? If they win this one and 135 00:06:09,868 --> 00:06:12,268 Speaker 1: the Giants go to four and one with I think 136 00:06:12,268 --> 00:06:14,508 Speaker 1: that they're the biggest story in the NFL, not the Eagles, 137 00:06:14,628 --> 00:06:17,268 Speaker 1: who had the expectations going in. They're the biggest story 138 00:06:17,268 --> 00:06:18,908 Speaker 1: in the NFL. But Saquon Barkley is gonna have to 139 00:06:18,948 --> 00:06:20,988 Speaker 1: have rush for three hundred yards for it to have him. 140 00:06:21,028 --> 00:06:24,908 Speaker 1: That's it. Yeah, you said it. Three, Adrian Peterson tongue 141 00:06:24,948 --> 00:06:27,108 Speaker 1: two ninety six. We gotta be that, gotta be got 142 00:06:27,148 --> 00:06:28,988 Speaker 1: four more yards for I'm gonna get to win. They 143 00:06:28,988 --> 00:06:31,788 Speaker 1: obviously have to run the ball, but then defensively, they're 144 00:06:31,828 --> 00:06:34,828 Speaker 1: gonna have to come up with takeaways. There's no other 145 00:06:34,908 --> 00:06:37,668 Speaker 1: option for them. Yes, run the ball, but on defense, 146 00:06:37,708 --> 00:06:40,548 Speaker 1: you have to make plays. And does Green Bay Packers 147 00:06:40,628 --> 00:06:43,268 Speaker 1: offense they're ready for. They've turned the ball over. They've 148 00:06:43,308 --> 00:06:47,028 Speaker 1: had fumbles in every single game, at least two fumbels 149 00:06:47,028 --> 00:06:49,508 Speaker 1: except the first one where it was just Aaron Rodgers 150 00:06:49,548 --> 00:06:52,828 Speaker 1: who's lost the ball. He's also thrown interceptions, which we 151 00:06:52,908 --> 00:06:56,988 Speaker 1: don't typically see. Since twenty seventeen, he's never thrown more 152 00:06:57,028 --> 00:07:00,388 Speaker 1: than five interceptions. Last year it was only four through 153 00:07:00,468 --> 00:07:04,268 Speaker 1: four weeks of the season. Aaron Rodgers has already thrown 154 00:07:04,628 --> 00:07:09,868 Speaker 1: three interceptions. So there's opportunities. Where's Giants defense to make plays? Yes, 155 00:07:09,948 --> 00:07:12,588 Speaker 1: we saw the pick six last week. Different things that 156 00:07:12,788 --> 00:07:15,428 Speaker 1: this office we don't typically see year in a year out. 157 00:07:15,748 --> 00:07:19,188 Speaker 1: There's Giants team. They're desperate, right Now you give some takeaways, 158 00:07:19,228 --> 00:07:21,348 Speaker 1: you run the football, you give you a chance, you 159 00:07:21,388 --> 00:07:24,628 Speaker 1: give yourselves a chance to win this football game. Yeah. Look, 160 00:07:24,948 --> 00:07:27,628 Speaker 1: they're not gonna put up forty right, there's no no 161 00:07:27,988 --> 00:07:30,308 Speaker 1: whether Daniel Jones plays or not, or se Kwan goes 162 00:07:30,348 --> 00:07:32,788 Speaker 1: for three hundred, there will be no forty burgers served, which, 163 00:07:32,788 --> 00:07:34,548 Speaker 1: by the way over there is served with chips. Now 164 00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:39,868 Speaker 1: everything comes with chefs, yes, chips, but defensively to get 165 00:07:39,908 --> 00:07:42,388 Speaker 1: it done. I think, Wink Martindale, I think blitz. I 166 00:07:42,388 --> 00:07:44,828 Speaker 1: think sending the house. I wouldn't recommend that. I mean, 167 00:07:45,108 --> 00:07:47,268 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers over his career, we've got some numbers to 168 00:07:47,308 --> 00:07:48,988 Speaker 1: show it. I mean, you just you just don't want 169 00:07:48,988 --> 00:07:50,308 Speaker 1: to do that. I mean you're gonna have to do 170 00:07:50,348 --> 00:07:52,388 Speaker 1: it from time to time, but you can't do it 171 00:07:52,428 --> 00:07:54,668 Speaker 1: on every single down because you're gonna get burned. So 172 00:07:54,828 --> 00:07:57,428 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to get home with four. And one 173 00:07:57,468 --> 00:07:59,588 Speaker 1: of those guys, he's actually like one point five. He's 174 00:07:59,588 --> 00:08:01,668 Speaker 1: so big. It's Dexter Lawrence, the guy up front who 175 00:08:01,668 --> 00:08:04,428 Speaker 1: has just been an absolute wrecking ball at times. And 176 00:08:04,428 --> 00:08:06,468 Speaker 1: and Wink Martindale is in love with this guy. It's 177 00:08:06,508 --> 00:08:10,108 Speaker 1: a man crush of incredible proportions. This is the guy 178 00:08:10,148 --> 00:08:11,908 Speaker 1: that's just going to have to go off. And this 179 00:08:11,948 --> 00:08:13,948 Speaker 1: is a guy who's coming up on that second contract. 180 00:08:14,028 --> 00:08:15,708 Speaker 1: And if he does what he did against the Bears 181 00:08:15,708 --> 00:08:17,948 Speaker 1: the other day, and he does what he's been doing, 182 00:08:17,988 --> 00:08:20,748 Speaker 1: that gets Martindale loving him for his athletic ability at 183 00:08:20,788 --> 00:08:22,388 Speaker 1: that size to be able to get to people. Because 184 00:08:22,468 --> 00:08:24,228 Speaker 1: Rogers is gonna move a little bit, you gotta be 185 00:08:24,268 --> 00:08:26,268 Speaker 1: able to chase him down and cut him off. That's 186 00:08:26,268 --> 00:08:28,748 Speaker 1: the guy that's really gonna have to go off for me. Listen. 187 00:08:28,868 --> 00:08:32,228 Speaker 1: Pending that Stacy alluded to that Daniel Joe's injuries being 188 00:08:32,268 --> 00:08:35,628 Speaker 1: like a Grade seventeen high ankle sprain, like he's got 189 00:08:35,628 --> 00:08:38,028 Speaker 1: to go, like there is this is the only way, 190 00:08:38,108 --> 00:08:40,308 Speaker 1: and I know he's got to fly, and I know 191 00:08:40,388 --> 00:08:42,588 Speaker 1: it's it's it's a short it's a short week because 192 00:08:42,588 --> 00:08:45,108 Speaker 1: they have to travel internationally. But like you need to 193 00:08:45,108 --> 00:08:47,268 Speaker 1: have and stick with me here, Yankees fans, a Kurt 194 00:08:47,348 --> 00:08:50,348 Speaker 1: Schilling like performance. I need to see blood on the 195 00:08:50,348 --> 00:08:53,988 Speaker 1: sock from Daniel Jones in this game because if all 196 00:08:53,988 --> 00:08:56,428 Speaker 1: he has to do is stand there and do the RPO, 197 00:08:56,588 --> 00:08:59,268 Speaker 1: and if you're even a threat to take off five 198 00:08:59,468 --> 00:09:02,468 Speaker 1: seven yards underfeet. I understand take the next ten plays 199 00:09:02,508 --> 00:09:04,988 Speaker 1: off like, but if you are out there, you give 200 00:09:05,028 --> 00:09:07,348 Speaker 1: your offense that much more of a fighting chance to 201 00:09:07,428 --> 00:09:10,628 Speaker 1: keep the Packers defense on their toes. Stacy said, the 202 00:09:10,668 --> 00:09:14,348 Speaker 1: Giants run game has been fantastic to open this and 203 00:09:14,428 --> 00:09:16,628 Speaker 1: sae Quon Barkley can only do so much. He needs 204 00:09:16,628 --> 00:09:18,868 Speaker 1: someone else to defect too, and Daniel Jones has to 205 00:09:18,868 --> 00:09:20,348 Speaker 1: be the guyeless. I'm not saying go out there and 206 00:09:20,348 --> 00:09:22,828 Speaker 1: play woefully injured, but like, if there is a chance 207 00:09:22,948 --> 00:09:25,748 Speaker 1: you could secure a legendary status if you go to 208 00:09:25,828 --> 00:09:29,628 Speaker 1: London and beat the Packers on like a seventy percent ankle, 209 00:09:29,788 --> 00:09:32,188 Speaker 1: and then you become that guy. Take advantage of the 210 00:09:32,188 --> 00:09:34,108 Speaker 1: pack that the Packers have never gone to London. They're 211 00:09:34,148 --> 00:09:36,628 Speaker 1: both taking a playbook out of the Vikings going Thursday 212 00:09:36,668 --> 00:09:38,708 Speaker 1: night to Friday morning. You never know, the Packers can 213 00:09:38,788 --> 00:09:40,588 Speaker 1: still be sleeping come kick off time on Sunday just 214 00:09:40,628 --> 00:09:42,708 Speaker 1: because they've never done this before. They've played outside the 215 00:09:42,748 --> 00:09:44,868 Speaker 1: States before. But when I looked, it was like games 216 00:09:44,868 --> 00:09:46,908 Speaker 1: played in the nineteen thirties and then they went to 217 00:09:46,948 --> 00:09:48,948 Speaker 1: Canada in twenty nineteen or something like that, Like it's 218 00:09:48,948 --> 00:09:50,428 Speaker 1: not the same, like, this is a lot to go 219 00:09:50,508 --> 00:09:53,428 Speaker 1: over when I ask people about Daniel Jones status this week, 220 00:09:53,428 --> 00:09:55,028 Speaker 1: by the way, getting a lot of shrugs, getting a 221 00:09:55,068 --> 00:09:56,548 Speaker 1: lot of wool sees. I don't know. It's not a 222 00:09:56,548 --> 00:09:59,188 Speaker 1: great sign. And more to your point, Kyle about you know, 223 00:09:59,188 --> 00:10:00,828 Speaker 1: somebody's saying they got to be kidney with the guys 224 00:10:00,828 --> 00:10:03,468 Speaker 1: that they worked out. First of all, who's available. Nobody's 225 00:10:03,508 --> 00:10:05,708 Speaker 1: all right now number one and number two. This is 226 00:10:05,748 --> 00:10:08,388 Speaker 1: somebody who may have to play on Sunday. So it's 227 00:10:08,628 --> 00:10:10,468 Speaker 1: guys that they brought in that have a history with 228 00:10:10,548 --> 00:10:13,308 Speaker 1: the coaching staff or the general manager, or guys that 229 00:10:13,348 --> 00:10:16,748 Speaker 1: can be quick studdies. Jake from AJ McCarron, Brian Luwurkey. 230 00:10:16,828 --> 00:10:19,468 Speaker 1: I think it's pronounced who was with the team previously, 231 00:10:19,548 --> 00:10:22,028 Speaker 1: So it's that's why they worked out those guys. I 232 00:10:22,068 --> 00:10:23,708 Speaker 1: just wanted to see that up there because it's gonna 233 00:10:23,708 --> 00:10:26,228 Speaker 1: be ugly if he's not out there. I just Jones 234 00:10:26,308 --> 00:10:29,308 Speaker 1: it will be you know, it's never ugly when we 235 00:10:29,308 --> 00:10:31,628 Speaker 1: get to hear me and Rappaport because let's go laze 236 00:10:31,668 --> 00:10:34,988 Speaker 1: the information on us NFL Network insider Ian rappworre joining 237 00:10:35,028 --> 00:10:36,828 Speaker 1: us now week five, it starts tomorrow on I ian 238 00:10:37,108 --> 00:10:39,708 Speaker 1: injuries besides Daniel Jones that we need to know about. 239 00:10:39,868 --> 00:10:42,108 Speaker 1: I'm talking about Russell Wilson, who has an injury to 240 00:10:42,188 --> 00:10:44,908 Speaker 1: his right throwing shoulder, which generally would be some major 241 00:10:44,908 --> 00:10:46,668 Speaker 1: cause for concern. I don't know. It's a quarterback with 242 00:10:46,708 --> 00:10:50,068 Speaker 1: a throwing shoulder. Usually that's not good. Russell Wilson in 243 00:10:50,068 --> 00:10:53,308 Speaker 1: a way that only he can describe himself as super 244 00:10:53,348 --> 00:10:55,108 Speaker 1: confident that he'll be able to get out on the 245 00:10:55,148 --> 00:10:57,428 Speaker 1: field on Thursday. It seems to be a little bit 246 00:10:57,468 --> 00:11:00,028 Speaker 1: of tendonitis in his throwing shoulder. He was limited the 247 00:11:00,148 --> 00:11:02,228 Speaker 1: first two days of the practice week, or would have 248 00:11:02,228 --> 00:11:05,108 Speaker 1: been limited had they really really practice. Seemed like this 249 00:11:05,188 --> 00:11:07,588 Speaker 1: is a major issue. I would characterize it as really 250 00:11:07,628 --> 00:11:11,108 Speaker 1: just something to watch. Meanwhile, Jonathan Taylor is dealing with 251 00:11:11,188 --> 00:11:14,068 Speaker 1: something probably a little more to watch than Russell Wilson. 252 00:11:14,108 --> 00:11:16,788 Speaker 1: He's got an ankle sprain and he had an MRI 253 00:11:16,948 --> 00:11:19,548 Speaker 1: and some other tests before the week. It came back 254 00:11:19,588 --> 00:11:22,428 Speaker 1: relatively clean, which was cost for optimism. But he hasn't 255 00:11:22,428 --> 00:11:25,308 Speaker 1: done anything in the last two days. He believes he 256 00:11:25,428 --> 00:11:27,028 Speaker 1: is hopeful that he'll be able to get out on 257 00:11:27,068 --> 00:11:29,668 Speaker 1: the field on Thursday night for the Coast to spide 258 00:11:29,668 --> 00:11:31,868 Speaker 1: a short week to spide an ankle sprain. But I 259 00:11:31,868 --> 00:11:34,068 Speaker 1: would say they are taking it a little more maybe 260 00:11:34,148 --> 00:11:36,588 Speaker 1: up in the air. He's gonna workout pregame and we'll 261 00:11:36,628 --> 00:11:38,588 Speaker 1: see if he's able to get out there. And then, 262 00:11:38,588 --> 00:11:40,348 Speaker 1: of course the sat as that we have all been 263 00:11:40,388 --> 00:11:43,108 Speaker 1: monitoring for the last month or so, Dak Prescott, and 264 00:11:43,348 --> 00:11:45,348 Speaker 1: you know, when you look at his prospects, when he's 265 00:11:45,348 --> 00:11:48,228 Speaker 1: gonna play, when's the most realistic. My understanding has always 266 00:11:48,228 --> 00:11:50,908 Speaker 1: been the Eagles game is the first realistic chance on 267 00:11:50,948 --> 00:11:53,948 Speaker 1: October sixteenth, So not this week. And then Jerry Jones 268 00:11:54,308 --> 00:11:56,628 Speaker 1: came out on the radio yesterday and said that Dak 269 00:11:56,628 --> 00:12:00,068 Speaker 1: Prescott still cannot grip a football yet, not a great 270 00:12:00,108 --> 00:12:02,748 Speaker 1: sign for someone who has wanted to be able to 271 00:12:02,748 --> 00:12:04,948 Speaker 1: play against the Rams this week. That means to me 272 00:12:05,388 --> 00:12:09,708 Speaker 1: another week of Cooper Rusher quarterback, which, considering how he's playing, guys, 273 00:12:09,748 --> 00:12:12,748 Speaker 1: really not that big a deal. Honestly, I thank you 274 00:12:12,828 --> 00:12:17,788 Speaker 1: very much. Whit Wednesday time, here we go. It's early. 275 00:12:17,948 --> 00:12:19,748 Speaker 1: We have our white boards ready to go, and white 276 00:12:19,788 --> 00:12:22,548 Speaker 1: g is overly prepared for this segment. After tremor Lawrence's 277 00:12:22,588 --> 00:12:24,828 Speaker 1: five turn over game on Sundays is our first question 278 00:12:24,948 --> 00:12:27,988 Speaker 1: against the Eagles. Jaguars head coach Doug Peterson told reporters 279 00:12:27,988 --> 00:12:30,708 Speaker 1: that he hopes it's a blip. We probably all have 280 00:12:30,788 --> 00:12:32,188 Speaker 1: moments in our life like that. I kind of hope 281 00:12:32,188 --> 00:12:34,588 Speaker 1: it's hope it's a blip. Sure, But the Week four performance, 282 00:12:34,628 --> 00:12:36,788 Speaker 1: let's keep it to football, that you think is a 283 00:12:36,788 --> 00:12:40,708 Speaker 1: blip is Mike Gee. I'm gonna buy you three seconds 284 00:12:40,708 --> 00:12:46,948 Speaker 1: of time to write Mike's on his defense dese. Yeah, 285 00:12:46,988 --> 00:12:49,628 Speaker 1: that game just got from that opening kickoff and that fumball. 286 00:12:49,668 --> 00:12:51,628 Speaker 1: That game just kind of got away from them, and 287 00:12:52,148 --> 00:12:54,628 Speaker 1: even the Kansas City defense had to play it differently 288 00:12:54,708 --> 00:12:56,748 Speaker 1: just because how that game went. So Tom was able 289 00:12:56,788 --> 00:12:59,548 Speaker 1: to put up some yards and some points there toward 290 00:12:59,588 --> 00:13:01,748 Speaker 1: the end here. But I just this defense has been 291 00:13:01,748 --> 00:13:04,908 Speaker 1: playing really well. You can't go eighteen weeks the NFL 292 00:13:05,108 --> 00:13:06,948 Speaker 1: without having some games like this. I think that was 293 00:13:06,948 --> 00:13:09,628 Speaker 1: a blipper. Yeah. For me, I'm going out on a Lemrera. 294 00:13:09,788 --> 00:13:14,108 Speaker 1: I'm going with Melvin Gordon. I'm gonna say his last 295 00:13:14,148 --> 00:13:16,428 Speaker 1: game was a blip. Not only that game, but kind 296 00:13:16,468 --> 00:13:19,588 Speaker 1: of the first quarter of the year. Has four fumbles 297 00:13:19,588 --> 00:13:21,988 Speaker 1: through four weeks and has been rough for him, but 298 00:13:22,068 --> 00:13:26,748 Speaker 1: Javonte Williams has gone down within Andrey the opportunity is now. 299 00:13:26,788 --> 00:13:29,068 Speaker 1: He's a veteran, he's a friend of the show, and 300 00:13:29,148 --> 00:13:31,348 Speaker 1: it's put up or shut up time for him. And 301 00:13:31,388 --> 00:13:33,468 Speaker 1: I have faith that he's going to get it done. 302 00:13:33,708 --> 00:13:35,908 Speaker 1: The team and I have confidence in him. Let's get 303 00:13:35,948 --> 00:13:39,628 Speaker 1: it done. John Harbaugh can't do this back to back weeks, Kenny. 304 00:13:39,628 --> 00:13:41,708 Speaker 1: You can't give up a lead like that against a 305 00:13:41,748 --> 00:13:44,748 Speaker 1: team that's such a favorite in the AFC Ravens. I 306 00:13:44,748 --> 00:13:47,108 Speaker 1: would think that having a lead up Buffalo is just 307 00:13:47,148 --> 00:13:50,788 Speaker 1: a blip because you had that game in your talents, 308 00:13:50,828 --> 00:13:54,788 Speaker 1: if you will. Ravens have talents. Yeah, Ravens just a blip, Yeah, 309 00:13:54,868 --> 00:13:57,308 Speaker 1: John Harbaugh. I think a team that's coached by John 310 00:13:57,388 --> 00:13:59,668 Speaker 1: Harball can't can't let another game like that slip away. 311 00:13:59,788 --> 00:14:04,508 Speaker 1: Ravens just a blip. Do the Ravens have large talents? 312 00:14:04,388 --> 00:14:09,388 Speaker 1: As a request, please, I love Dan Campbell so much. 313 00:14:10,028 --> 00:14:12,068 Speaker 1: It's so hard to watch because you know they have 314 00:14:12,108 --> 00:14:14,708 Speaker 1: the highest scoring offense in the NFL. They also have 315 00:14:14,788 --> 00:14:17,028 Speaker 1: the worst scoring defense in the NFL. So the games 316 00:14:17,028 --> 00:14:19,868 Speaker 1: are electric and it's always like ninety six to seventy two. 317 00:14:20,308 --> 00:14:23,108 Speaker 1: But how much was to just crushed Dan Campbell? And 318 00:14:23,108 --> 00:14:25,268 Speaker 1: by the way, our guy Aaron Glenn that we also love, 319 00:14:25,708 --> 00:14:29,428 Speaker 1: they can't stop anything, So I'm with Jason. It's not 320 00:14:29,508 --> 00:14:31,188 Speaker 1: so much a blip as it is is like a 321 00:14:31,268 --> 00:14:35,668 Speaker 1: one month long seismic activity. But someone Aidan Hutchinson, our 322 00:14:35,708 --> 00:14:39,908 Speaker 1: guy Rodrigo, anybody, Robert Porchet, anybody, please someone make a 323 00:14:39,988 --> 00:14:42,788 Speaker 1: tackle because the Lions are too cool and the Jared 324 00:14:42,828 --> 00:14:45,828 Speaker 1: goff stories should be a great story of redemption. But 325 00:14:45,948 --> 00:14:48,748 Speaker 1: Jared goffers for six touchdowns every week and losers by three. 326 00:14:48,948 --> 00:14:51,668 Speaker 1: So please, I'm asking, can the Lions d just be 327 00:14:51,668 --> 00:14:54,028 Speaker 1: like twenty ninth in the league. I would love that. Yeah, 328 00:14:54,108 --> 00:14:56,148 Speaker 1: we can rephrase it to what performance? Do we need 329 00:14:56,188 --> 00:14:59,268 Speaker 1: it to be a blip? Yeah? No. Else we gotta 330 00:14:59,308 --> 00:15:01,908 Speaker 1: talk about though, Kyler Murray Kylo ran back to back weeks. 331 00:15:01,988 --> 00:15:05,268 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray is taking a fellow Oklahoma Sooner. Who is 332 00:15:05,308 --> 00:15:06,868 Speaker 1: it gonna be this week? Do you know the schedule 333 00:15:06,908 --> 00:15:08,708 Speaker 1: well enough? But he had Baker last week? Can he 334 00:15:08,748 --> 00:15:10,308 Speaker 1: make a tune a row? And he faces, of course, 335 00:15:10,748 --> 00:15:13,148 Speaker 1: the quarterback of the Eagles. I'm sudden, look out Sooner 336 00:15:13,228 --> 00:15:28,548 Speaker 1: or later. That's a segments called hold back on Good 337 00:15:28,548 --> 00:15:32,188 Speaker 1: Morning Football. Good morning to everybody, especially Finn Taylor and 338 00:15:32,548 --> 00:15:35,308 Speaker 1: Will Silva who's out on the West coast. Good morning, Will, 339 00:15:35,308 --> 00:15:37,828 Speaker 1: what do you have for us? Let's get to the Broncos. 340 00:15:37,868 --> 00:15:40,068 Speaker 1: I'm sure that he had some takes on Russell Wilson 341 00:15:40,108 --> 00:15:43,228 Speaker 1: if he had the opportunity to. Either way, the Broncos 342 00:15:43,308 --> 00:15:47,148 Speaker 1: ready to ride against the Cults on Thursday night. Now, 343 00:15:47,188 --> 00:15:50,348 Speaker 1: Denver's offense hasn't exactly been clicking on cylinders like everyone 344 00:15:50,428 --> 00:15:54,028 Speaker 1: thought at this point time under new head coach Nathaniel Hackett, 345 00:15:54,188 --> 00:15:57,868 Speaker 1: but Hackett says the best is yet to come for 346 00:15:58,228 --> 00:16:01,588 Speaker 1: this offensive unit. So I think that it's about putting 347 00:16:01,588 --> 00:16:03,948 Speaker 1: it all together and not just doing one of those 348 00:16:03,948 --> 00:16:06,388 Speaker 1: situation is good, not just the run game, not just 349 00:16:06,428 --> 00:16:08,708 Speaker 1: the past game, but consistently doing that throughout a game. 350 00:16:08,748 --> 00:16:11,028 Speaker 1: I think you're looking at our entire team. We haven't 351 00:16:11,028 --> 00:16:13,868 Speaker 1: played our best football as a team in all three phases, 352 00:16:13,988 --> 00:16:16,228 Speaker 1: you know, whether it be defense, special teams, or offense. 353 00:16:16,548 --> 00:16:18,908 Speaker 1: I think that there's still so much more to improve on. 354 00:16:19,268 --> 00:16:21,148 Speaker 1: All the guys are getting used to each other, and 355 00:16:21,228 --> 00:16:22,708 Speaker 1: that's just something that we're gonna have to continue to 356 00:16:22,708 --> 00:16:27,028 Speaker 1: grow and the best football is still ahead well. Kenny 357 00:16:27,028 --> 00:16:30,508 Speaker 1: Pickett officially named the starter for Sunday's game against the Bills. 358 00:16:30,708 --> 00:16:33,908 Speaker 1: He's been thrown right into the fire going up against 359 00:16:33,908 --> 00:16:37,988 Speaker 1: the NFL's top ranked defense. Head coach Mike Tomlin spoke 360 00:16:37,988 --> 00:16:41,228 Speaker 1: about his decision to go with the rookie QB He 361 00:16:41,388 --> 00:16:44,988 Speaker 1: provided a spark end game that is tangible that we 362 00:16:45,068 --> 00:16:47,748 Speaker 1: saw and could feel and appreciate. But I think it 363 00:16:47,828 --> 00:16:50,428 Speaker 1: goes beyond that. I think that he's kind of provided 364 00:16:50,508 --> 00:16:53,148 Speaker 1: that spark since we've been stepping in stadiums. It's just 365 00:16:53,508 --> 00:16:56,228 Speaker 1: a component of who he is as a player and 366 00:16:56,268 --> 00:16:58,948 Speaker 1: a quarterback. The things that he does, how he communicates 367 00:16:59,068 --> 00:17:02,788 Speaker 1: his competitive spirit, I think is a positive catalyst for us. 368 00:17:03,668 --> 00:17:06,428 Speaker 1: As for putting pick it out there against the Bills, 369 00:17:06,428 --> 00:17:09,508 Speaker 1: in front of Bills Mafia, Tomlin said, there is a 370 00:17:09,628 --> 00:17:13,228 Speaker 1: level of concern there in that environment, But then again, 371 00:17:13,428 --> 00:17:16,148 Speaker 1: Jamie and guys, he said, no matter who's out there 372 00:17:16,348 --> 00:17:19,108 Speaker 1: under center, there's always going to be a level of 373 00:17:19,228 --> 00:17:22,548 Speaker 1: concern in that environment. That's interesting way to put it. 374 00:17:22,588 --> 00:17:24,628 Speaker 1: I mean, but if someone hasn't handled that environment yet 375 00:17:24,628 --> 00:17:27,068 Speaker 1: before a little bit more intriguing if you're a rookie, 376 00:17:27,228 --> 00:17:29,148 Speaker 1: will Selliva think he will talk to you a little bit, 377 00:17:29,468 --> 00:17:31,908 Speaker 1: so Mike Tomline, he names Kenny pick it the starter. 378 00:17:32,028 --> 00:17:33,508 Speaker 1: I know we have takes, we're going to talk about it, 379 00:17:33,588 --> 00:17:36,988 Speaker 1: but immediate reaction to pick it becoming the week five starter, 380 00:17:37,268 --> 00:17:38,868 Speaker 1: what do you think of? You know, guys, I've been 381 00:17:38,868 --> 00:17:40,628 Speaker 1: banging the table. I want to be the week one starter. Yeah. 382 00:17:40,628 --> 00:17:42,428 Speaker 1: I just thought I never believed in Mitch and I 383 00:17:42,788 --> 00:17:45,188 Speaker 1: don't relish saying that, but I guess you give Tomlin 384 00:17:45,228 --> 00:17:47,428 Speaker 1: credit for not riding and even longer, like he could 385 00:17:47,428 --> 00:17:49,508 Speaker 1: have just sat there and been stubborn. And I'm like, Tomlin, 386 00:17:49,508 --> 00:17:51,348 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna ride this for weeks. I gotta say 387 00:17:51,428 --> 00:17:54,228 Speaker 1: at Buffalo is not ideal, but you gotta do it. 388 00:17:54,428 --> 00:17:56,748 Speaker 1: I got to talk to Josh Allen yesterday and I'm like, 389 00:17:56,788 --> 00:17:58,668 Speaker 1: what do you Ken, he picks be playing this first start? 390 00:17:58,708 --> 00:18:00,228 Speaker 1: What do you remember at your first start? He was like, 391 00:18:00,668 --> 00:18:02,708 Speaker 1: You're like, I'm standing up there and I'm saying I'm 392 00:18:02,708 --> 00:18:05,108 Speaker 1: setting the protection and the linemen are around being like 393 00:18:05,188 --> 00:18:07,668 Speaker 1: you can't do that, and so I'm like block left. 394 00:18:07,748 --> 00:18:10,988 Speaker 1: Like he was like, it's hard, really hard. So I 395 00:18:11,068 --> 00:18:12,668 Speaker 1: think this guy's work cut off one. We'll talk about 396 00:18:12,668 --> 00:18:14,188 Speaker 1: that match up a lot. I'm glad he did it, 397 00:18:14,228 --> 00:18:16,108 Speaker 1: but I mean, Picket's gonna have to really show up 398 00:18:16,148 --> 00:18:18,308 Speaker 1: this weekend. It's tough. Yeah. If there were like five 399 00:18:18,428 --> 00:18:21,548 Speaker 1: scenarios in which you could start Kenny Pickett like this 400 00:18:21,628 --> 00:18:25,388 Speaker 1: is the last I hate this for. Yeah. I'm of 401 00:18:25,468 --> 00:18:28,468 Speaker 1: the opinion that like either they can swim or they're 402 00:18:28,468 --> 00:18:30,708 Speaker 1: gonna sink, and it doesn't really matter when you started. 403 00:18:30,988 --> 00:18:32,988 Speaker 1: Maybe sometimes you benefit from sitting a little bit, like 404 00:18:33,068 --> 00:18:36,028 Speaker 1: it's either he can hack it or he can't. And 405 00:18:36,268 --> 00:18:38,308 Speaker 1: so in the preseason when they put him in a 406 00:18:38,348 --> 00:18:40,588 Speaker 1: stadium and he responded, well, that was a good indication. 407 00:18:40,588 --> 00:18:43,068 Speaker 1: And Tomla noted that he didn't melt. He actually thrived 408 00:18:43,108 --> 00:18:45,228 Speaker 1: in that scenario. So you know what, there's no break 409 00:18:45,228 --> 00:18:48,028 Speaker 1: in their schedule. Their schedules. Yeah, and as a rookie, 410 00:18:48,108 --> 00:18:50,388 Speaker 1: you know what, you know, So I'm excited for it 411 00:18:50,428 --> 00:18:52,668 Speaker 1: because you go into the game. I compare it to 412 00:18:52,748 --> 00:18:55,068 Speaker 1: my rookie year coming into this job. You know what, 413 00:18:55,108 --> 00:18:57,348 Speaker 1: you know, you don't know any of the roles in anybody. 414 00:18:57,388 --> 00:18:58,788 Speaker 1: So you just come on, you get on camera and 415 00:18:58,828 --> 00:19:00,868 Speaker 1: you just talk. For Kenny picket. He's gonna get out there, 416 00:19:00,948 --> 00:19:02,948 Speaker 1: get the ball in his hands and just swing it. 417 00:19:03,228 --> 00:19:06,868 Speaker 1: Who cares throw out there? They don't have high expectations anyway, 418 00:19:07,028 --> 00:19:08,748 Speaker 1: for the rest of the season, go out to a 419 00:19:08,828 --> 00:19:10,948 Speaker 1: ball and have fun doing it. It just feels like 420 00:19:11,108 --> 00:19:13,668 Speaker 1: chum in the water though. For Bill's Nation, like they 421 00:19:13,748 --> 00:19:16,508 Speaker 1: are just like, oh can we bother? You, Like, let's 422 00:19:16,548 --> 00:19:18,828 Speaker 1: be louder than It's just gonna be an extra notch 423 00:19:18,868 --> 00:19:21,748 Speaker 1: in They're belt. Well, it's gonna be bad time for 424 00:19:21,948 --> 00:19:25,668 Speaker 1: Spark of Brilliance presented by Capital One Spark Card. Let's 425 00:19:25,668 --> 00:19:27,628 Speaker 1: look ahead to be five. We're gonna pick a game 426 00:19:27,668 --> 00:19:31,108 Speaker 1: and tell everybody why we expect sparks to fly when 427 00:19:31,108 --> 00:19:33,068 Speaker 1: these two teams take the field. What I love about 428 00:19:33,068 --> 00:19:35,868 Speaker 1: this question is that it's oftentimes the games you don't expect, 429 00:19:35,988 --> 00:19:38,108 Speaker 1: Like no one really would have thought that Saints Vikings 430 00:19:38,148 --> 00:19:39,948 Speaker 1: was going to have fireworks and yet it did. So 431 00:19:40,108 --> 00:19:41,748 Speaker 1: pick the one that you think is going to have 432 00:19:41,828 --> 00:19:44,588 Speaker 1: that spark. Yeah, I mean, it's possible that I'll be wrong. 433 00:19:44,668 --> 00:19:47,788 Speaker 1: I've been wrong before, but I'm gonna take Bengals Ravens. 434 00:19:47,788 --> 00:19:50,508 Speaker 1: I've got an AFC North that's wide open right now. 435 00:19:50,508 --> 00:19:53,028 Speaker 1: And this is really feeling like a pivotal game for 436 00:19:53,108 --> 00:19:55,108 Speaker 1: both sides. But then I go back to last year, 437 00:19:55,188 --> 00:19:58,108 Speaker 1: talk about Sparks flying in two games against the Ravens, 438 00:19:58,148 --> 00:20:03,508 Speaker 1: eighty two points for the Cincinnati Bengals, one thousand, ninety 439 00:20:03,508 --> 00:20:05,868 Speaker 1: five total yards combined in two It was like a 440 00:20:06,188 --> 00:20:10,028 Speaker 1: repeat both games. And so Baltimore now coming off that 441 00:20:10,148 --> 00:20:13,148 Speaker 1: loss against the Bills, really got to look up and say, Okay, 442 00:20:13,148 --> 00:20:15,468 Speaker 1: we've got this Bengals team that's starting to click, coming 443 00:20:15,468 --> 00:20:19,428 Speaker 1: on a ten day rest into this game. Right here, 444 00:20:19,588 --> 00:20:21,868 Speaker 1: I just this feels like so much on the line, 445 00:20:22,468 --> 00:20:27,108 Speaker 1: so much offensive firepower possible, that Baltimore Ravens defense not 446 00:20:27,148 --> 00:20:29,708 Speaker 1: playing very well right now. I just I can't wait 447 00:20:29,948 --> 00:20:31,748 Speaker 1: to see this one. I hope it's a closer game 448 00:20:31,748 --> 00:20:33,948 Speaker 1: than what we saw it last year between these two teams, 449 00:20:33,948 --> 00:20:36,828 Speaker 1: but I hope there's offensive's sparked. I got asked us 450 00:20:36,828 --> 00:20:39,028 Speaker 1: today if I think John Harbaugh is on the hot seat, 451 00:20:39,068 --> 00:20:40,908 Speaker 1: and I was like, Harbaugh, he's got ten year. This 452 00:20:40,908 --> 00:20:43,028 Speaker 1: would be six straight home losses if they lose. This 453 00:20:43,468 --> 00:20:45,828 Speaker 1: got players yelling at him, players yelling at him, the 454 00:20:45,868 --> 00:20:49,508 Speaker 1: curious decision, the Lamar uncertainty, if they lose the National 455 00:20:49,508 --> 00:20:51,308 Speaker 1: time to the Bengals and they go to two and three. 456 00:20:51,548 --> 00:20:53,868 Speaker 1: It's rough, and John Harbow was like one of the institutions, 457 00:20:53,868 --> 00:20:55,468 Speaker 1: but it's it's not it's been a weird season. I'm 458 00:20:55,468 --> 00:20:57,588 Speaker 1: gonna say something I would have answered this question with, 459 00:20:57,588 --> 00:21:00,268 Speaker 1: like in nineteen ninety eight Jets Dolphins, I'm really into 460 00:21:00,308 --> 00:21:02,948 Speaker 1: this game. There's a lot of emotion in this game. 461 00:21:03,028 --> 00:21:05,788 Speaker 1: The Jets are tuned too, but they have a twelve 462 00:21:05,868 --> 00:21:08,868 Speaker 1: game losing streak in their division, twelve straight division games, 463 00:21:08,868 --> 00:21:10,628 Speaker 1: and Stalas talked about it this week that if we 464 00:21:10,668 --> 00:21:11,668 Speaker 1: want to do what we got to do, we have 465 00:21:11,708 --> 00:21:13,588 Speaker 1: to take care of our division. If they get to 466 00:21:13,708 --> 00:21:16,028 Speaker 1: three and two and Zach Wilson comes a thing, then 467 00:21:16,068 --> 00:21:19,348 Speaker 1: there's real excitement. Meanwhile, the Dolphins just went through the 468 00:21:19,388 --> 00:21:21,748 Speaker 1: to a thing, like they have a different type of 469 00:21:21,748 --> 00:21:24,508 Speaker 1: emotion where their field general has been out and they 470 00:21:24,548 --> 00:21:26,308 Speaker 1: had that terrible experience and now they're gonna have to 471 00:21:26,388 --> 00:21:28,428 Speaker 1: rally behind Bridgewater. It's also the first time we're seeing 472 00:21:28,468 --> 00:21:30,868 Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel come after a loss. So like, there's a 473 00:21:30,868 --> 00:21:32,908 Speaker 1: lot of emotion in this and one of these teams 474 00:21:32,988 --> 00:21:34,468 Speaker 1: is going to win and be off and running and 475 00:21:34,508 --> 00:21:36,228 Speaker 1: the other one's gonna have a huge step back. So 476 00:21:36,388 --> 00:21:38,788 Speaker 1: it's fun to say Jets Dolphins because it's normally a 477 00:21:38,988 --> 00:21:41,828 Speaker 1: you know, Packers, Niners. No all, that's saying Jets Dolphins 478 00:21:41,908 --> 00:21:43,468 Speaker 1: like in the late nineties. I'm back in college, Mike, 479 00:21:43,508 --> 00:21:45,188 Speaker 1: and I like it. What do you think, Jamie, I'm 480 00:21:45,188 --> 00:21:47,188 Speaker 1: gonna go Battle of the Birds in the State of 481 00:21:47,228 --> 00:21:49,388 Speaker 1: Arizona between the Eagles and the Cardinals because I think 482 00:21:49,428 --> 00:21:52,268 Speaker 1: if there's an unbeaten team regardless, like that is the 483 00:21:52,268 --> 00:21:54,028 Speaker 1: one that's going to deliver every week, Like you have 484 00:21:54,068 --> 00:21:57,948 Speaker 1: to watch it either continue to fly if you will, yeah, 485 00:21:58,108 --> 00:21:59,988 Speaker 1: or a crash and bird. Not that a loss would 486 00:22:00,028 --> 00:22:02,148 Speaker 1: be that for the Eagles, but it's like an undefeated 487 00:22:02,148 --> 00:22:04,868 Speaker 1: team into October is such a spectacle you have to 488 00:22:04,908 --> 00:22:08,388 Speaker 1: respect it, especially when it's the loan team remaining to 489 00:22:08,468 --> 00:22:12,548 Speaker 1: be undefeated. And the Cardinals have taken us on this 490 00:22:13,068 --> 00:22:16,868 Speaker 1: joy ride of emotions and none was any better than 491 00:22:16,908 --> 00:22:20,628 Speaker 1: that Kyler Murray Raiders come back with like that eighty 492 00:22:20,788 --> 00:22:23,668 Speaker 1: sixth star to two point conversion like that again to 493 00:22:23,828 --> 00:22:26,628 Speaker 1: excuse zoom out is like the Cardinal season in a nutshell. 494 00:22:26,868 --> 00:22:28,708 Speaker 1: Now they have to go up against an undefeated Eagles 495 00:22:28,748 --> 00:22:30,868 Speaker 1: team like that one could deliver. It's got a ton 496 00:22:30,948 --> 00:22:34,548 Speaker 1: of storyline, some injuries, and let's see what we get there. Yes, 497 00:22:34,708 --> 00:22:39,428 Speaker 1: undefeated football team. Cooper Rush, an undefeated quarterback and his career. 498 00:22:39,548 --> 00:22:43,108 Speaker 1: The Cowboys take on the Rams, and you talk about fireworks, 499 00:22:43,108 --> 00:22:46,708 Speaker 1: you talk about sparks, headlines, Jerry Jones talking about, hey, 500 00:22:46,708 --> 00:22:48,908 Speaker 1: if Rush continues to play well, whether it be a 501 00:22:48,988 --> 00:22:52,908 Speaker 1: quarterback competition. On top of that, the Rams looked awful 502 00:22:53,228 --> 00:22:56,548 Speaker 1: on prime Time. They've given up the second most sacks 503 00:22:56,748 --> 00:22:59,988 Speaker 1: of any offense in the NFL, and the Cowboys have 504 00:23:00,028 --> 00:23:03,948 Speaker 1: the second most sacks on defense. So Matthew Stafford, he 505 00:23:04,028 --> 00:23:06,508 Speaker 1: may not like these type of sparks, but the Cowboys 506 00:23:06,508 --> 00:23:09,108 Speaker 1: are coming. They're coming after him, and there's going to 507 00:23:09,148 --> 00:23:12,068 Speaker 1: be big place to be made with that pass rush. 508 00:23:12,268 --> 00:23:14,908 Speaker 1: This game, to me is just screams headlines. Are the 509 00:23:15,108 --> 00:23:18,028 Speaker 1: Rams any good this year? We've just watched them laying 510 00:23:18,108 --> 00:23:21,228 Speaker 1: a twice on primetime? Now they have the Cowboys, there's 511 00:23:21,268 --> 00:23:22,988 Speaker 1: gonna be a fun one to watch. I want to 512 00:23:23,028 --> 00:23:25,948 Speaker 1: see what this Rams team can do now going against 513 00:23:25,948 --> 00:23:28,308 Speaker 1: an opponent the Cowboys, who have surprised a lot of 514 00:23:28,308 --> 00:23:31,428 Speaker 1: people with Dak Prescott BNL Mike, this whole Dak Prescott 515 00:23:31,508 --> 00:23:34,588 Speaker 1: grip football thing and Cooper Rush, this very much has 516 00:23:34,628 --> 00:23:36,868 Speaker 1: to be like, oh, you can't quite grip the ball, Son, 517 00:23:36,948 --> 00:23:39,548 Speaker 1: We're good with Cooper Rush? Or can he actually not 518 00:23:39,668 --> 00:23:42,188 Speaker 1: grip the ball? No? I mean it's it's hand surgery. 519 00:23:42,228 --> 00:23:45,228 Speaker 1: And we kind of identified early on the Eagles game 520 00:23:45,308 --> 00:23:49,428 Speaker 1: next week as the potential first realistic opening for him 521 00:23:49,428 --> 00:23:51,548 Speaker 1: to be back, which he is expected to do some 522 00:23:51,628 --> 00:23:54,028 Speaker 1: work in practice this week, but not practice fully. So 523 00:23:54,068 --> 00:23:56,668 Speaker 1: if he starts practicing fully next week, then you'll say, Okay, 524 00:23:56,748 --> 00:23:58,668 Speaker 1: he's on track. He could play in that game. It's 525 00:23:58,708 --> 00:24:00,908 Speaker 1: just what happened was Jerry Jones on the radio every 526 00:24:00,908 --> 00:24:02,988 Speaker 1: week and I said this on NFL Now yesterday. We're 527 00:24:03,028 --> 00:24:05,268 Speaker 1: grateful for it because we need content for that show, 528 00:24:05,348 --> 00:24:07,388 Speaker 1: especially on slow days. Tuesday as a slow day for 529 00:24:07,508 --> 00:24:09,308 Speaker 1: NFL News because a lot of teams aren't practicing, and 530 00:24:09,388 --> 00:24:11,388 Speaker 1: Jerry likes to provide it. So when he starts talking 531 00:24:11,428 --> 00:24:12,828 Speaker 1: about it, hey, it could be this week and it 532 00:24:12,868 --> 00:24:15,068 Speaker 1: was two weeks ago and it's nowhere in time frame. 533 00:24:15,668 --> 00:24:17,868 Speaker 1: Right now, we've got a topic you discussed to say, Hey, 534 00:24:17,908 --> 00:24:20,028 Speaker 1: it's just Jerry. He's got shows to fill, just like 535 00:24:20,068 --> 00:24:21,388 Speaker 1: we've got shows to fill. But I want to go 536 00:24:21,468 --> 00:24:23,628 Speaker 1: back to that Jets Dolphins game because when I was 537 00:24:23,668 --> 00:24:25,348 Speaker 1: looking at the games this week to see which one 538 00:24:25,348 --> 00:24:27,108 Speaker 1: could give me a spirit, I was like, hey, I 539 00:24:27,148 --> 00:24:29,308 Speaker 1: remember when that used to be. Lent me a fake spike, 540 00:24:29,388 --> 00:24:32,028 Speaker 1: the Jumbo Elliott game. There are plenty of Jets Dolphins 541 00:24:32,148 --> 00:24:34,308 Speaker 1: games in the past that were great. So yeah, I've 542 00:24:34,348 --> 00:24:36,988 Speaker 1: got a little tug of nostalgia. I wish too was playing. Unfortunately, 543 00:24:37,788 --> 00:24:39,828 Speaker 1: they both have a lot invested in this thing. I 544 00:24:39,908 --> 00:24:42,708 Speaker 1: mentioned if Sali started his address to the team, I 545 00:24:42,748 --> 00:24:45,348 Speaker 1: was watching the video saying that we have lost twelve 546 00:24:45,388 --> 00:24:47,428 Speaker 1: straight division games. He's not hiding from I mean, that's 547 00:24:47,468 --> 00:24:49,388 Speaker 1: a really terrible streak. In fact, the last game they 548 00:24:49,388 --> 00:24:50,668 Speaker 1: won was against the Bills, and the last week of 549 00:24:50,708 --> 00:24:52,268 Speaker 1: the season. I don't know if the Bills had plentything 550 00:24:52,268 --> 00:24:53,908 Speaker 1: for But you can do all these things, and it's 551 00:24:53,948 --> 00:24:55,628 Speaker 1: great that you beat the Steelers, and it's great that's 552 00:24:55,628 --> 00:24:57,988 Speaker 1: you beat the Browns, like you gotta beat the Dolphins, 553 00:24:57,988 --> 00:25:00,068 Speaker 1: you gotta beat the Bills, you gotta beat the damn Patriots. 554 00:25:00,468 --> 00:25:03,708 Speaker 1: Otherwise it's just empty calories. It's filler it's fun little 555 00:25:03,748 --> 00:25:05,708 Speaker 1: stories for a week, and then you get clobbered by 556 00:25:05,708 --> 00:25:08,908 Speaker 1: Buffalo or Miami. It's nothing. So it's great that Zach 557 00:25:08,948 --> 00:25:11,468 Speaker 1: Wilson can do the gritty, Like can he play gritty? 558 00:25:12,148 --> 00:25:14,468 Speaker 1: Let's let's find out this week. Are you gonna go 559 00:25:14,588 --> 00:25:16,748 Speaker 1: Dolphins at Jets? Was your guys? I'm thinking about going. 560 00:25:16,908 --> 00:25:18,308 Speaker 1: My wife said that to me the other day. I 561 00:25:18,348 --> 00:25:20,988 Speaker 1: may try to go by the hotel. See my guys, 562 00:25:20,988 --> 00:25:22,868 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that should be. I think, like you just said, 563 00:25:22,908 --> 00:25:24,588 Speaker 1: it's going to be such a fun game because the 564 00:25:24,668 --> 00:25:26,668 Speaker 1: Jets right now are on third place in our division, 565 00:25:26,828 --> 00:25:29,308 Speaker 1: and that's somewhere they haven't really been. New England is 566 00:25:29,308 --> 00:25:31,988 Speaker 1: the last in that division, so it's a great opportunity 567 00:25:32,028 --> 00:25:34,588 Speaker 1: to kind of get a little jump start and make 568 00:25:34,628 --> 00:25:36,428 Speaker 1: sure that they don't finish because they've been last in 569 00:25:36,428 --> 00:25:52,428 Speaker 1: the division. I feel like forever now. Cooper Rush has 570 00:25:52,508 --> 00:25:54,908 Speaker 1: the Cowboys on a three game win streak. What is 571 00:25:54,908 --> 00:25:57,268 Speaker 1: the latest of Dak Prescott's return to that team. Doesn't 572 00:25:57,268 --> 00:25:59,588 Speaker 1: seem like Dak Prescott's returned to the team is going 573 00:25:59,628 --> 00:26:02,468 Speaker 1: to be this week, And you know Prescott is doing well. 574 00:26:02,468 --> 00:26:05,428 Speaker 1: It sounds like his rehab, his recovery from thumb surgeries, 575 00:26:05,668 --> 00:26:07,708 Speaker 1: probably going about as well as you could hope. He 576 00:26:07,748 --> 00:26:10,988 Speaker 1: has four weeks out, and generally the time frame for 577 00:26:11,188 --> 00:26:13,908 Speaker 1: this kind of injury, and also this injury specifically was 578 00:26:14,268 --> 00:26:16,188 Speaker 1: at least four weeks. There was some hope that he 579 00:26:16,188 --> 00:26:18,428 Speaker 1: could come back right around then, but he's still dealing 580 00:26:18,468 --> 00:26:20,348 Speaker 1: with some swelling and as Jerry Jones admitted on the 581 00:26:20,428 --> 00:26:23,428 Speaker 1: radio yesterday, guys, he still can't really grip a football. 582 00:26:23,508 --> 00:26:26,308 Speaker 1: And I would say, considering the position he plays, gripping 583 00:26:26,308 --> 00:26:29,308 Speaker 1: of football is somewhat important. That really is the last 584 00:26:29,308 --> 00:26:32,228 Speaker 1: threshold for Dak Prescott. How well can he grip an 585 00:26:32,348 --> 00:26:34,788 Speaker 1: NFL football, be able to throw it just like normal? 586 00:26:34,828 --> 00:26:36,748 Speaker 1: And there was some talk about, oh, you know, he 587 00:26:36,868 --> 00:26:38,748 Speaker 1: loved to play in the Rams game. He's targeting the 588 00:26:38,828 --> 00:26:42,548 Speaker 1: Rams game. There's never really that much of a realistic consideration. 589 00:26:42,628 --> 00:26:45,868 Speaker 1: For my understanding. The Eagles game on October sixteenth, far 590 00:26:45,988 --> 00:26:48,268 Speaker 1: more realistic. He still has a shot at that. It 591 00:26:48,388 --> 00:26:50,948 Speaker 1: seems that he's going to be Cooper Rush, who just 592 00:26:50,988 --> 00:26:54,108 Speaker 1: wins football games. That's it once again this week, all right, Ian, 593 00:26:54,148 --> 00:26:56,268 Speaker 1: thank you? So it sounds like Cooper Rush. We'll be 594 00:26:56,268 --> 00:26:58,788 Speaker 1: at it again on Sunday for the Cowboys Cowboys Rams. 595 00:26:58,828 --> 00:27:00,828 Speaker 1: This is such a strange question. Which team do we 596 00:27:00,948 --> 00:27:03,988 Speaker 1: trust more right now? What Cowboys or their Week five 597 00:27:04,188 --> 00:27:07,988 Speaker 1: home Los Angeles Rams. Yeah. For me, I'm gonna have 598 00:27:08,028 --> 00:27:10,988 Speaker 1: to go Cowboys. I looked at this, I didn't feel 599 00:27:11,108 --> 00:27:13,748 Speaker 1: that strongly about either team, But when we washed with 600 00:27:13,868 --> 00:27:16,348 Speaker 1: the Rams have kind of put forward. We talked about 601 00:27:16,388 --> 00:27:19,308 Speaker 1: it yesterday. All offseason, Aaron Donald said he was close 602 00:27:19,348 --> 00:27:21,388 Speaker 1: to retire. McVay said he didn't know him he was 603 00:27:21,428 --> 00:27:24,028 Speaker 1: gonna continue to play. There was just so many questions 604 00:27:24,028 --> 00:27:26,388 Speaker 1: marks swirling around them, and they look like a team 605 00:27:26,468 --> 00:27:28,388 Speaker 1: right now that they don't know if they're ready to go. 606 00:27:28,588 --> 00:27:30,588 Speaker 1: But for the Cowboys, you look at what they've done 607 00:27:30,588 --> 00:27:32,828 Speaker 1: with the two running backs they have, Tony Pollard and 608 00:27:32,908 --> 00:27:36,428 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott. They've committed to handing the ball off and 609 00:27:36,548 --> 00:27:39,108 Speaker 1: getting it in their hands, whether it's throwing passes to 610 00:27:39,188 --> 00:27:41,508 Speaker 1: him or just handing it off. Both of these guys. 611 00:27:41,668 --> 00:27:44,548 Speaker 1: This past game versus Washington, Washington did a great job 612 00:27:44,828 --> 00:27:47,588 Speaker 1: of shutting them down, but they still continue to run 613 00:27:47,628 --> 00:27:50,388 Speaker 1: the ball over twenty five touches total for both of 614 00:27:50,428 --> 00:27:52,508 Speaker 1: these guys, and I think what that has done is 615 00:27:52,588 --> 00:27:55,108 Speaker 1: opened up their offense. And if Washington comes in, the 616 00:27:55,108 --> 00:27:57,588 Speaker 1: Commanders come in, or any other team saying hey, we're 617 00:27:57,588 --> 00:28:00,428 Speaker 1: just gonna stop Elliott, We're gonna stop Pollard, it opens 618 00:28:00,468 --> 00:28:02,548 Speaker 1: it up and it gives Cooper Rush a chance to 619 00:28:02,588 --> 00:28:04,948 Speaker 1: get the ball down the field, to find his three 620 00:28:05,068 --> 00:28:08,268 Speaker 1: receivers now that he has Gallop back Norah Brown, and 621 00:28:08,268 --> 00:28:11,308 Speaker 1: then obviously to number one and CD Lamp. So, for me, 622 00:28:11,428 --> 00:28:14,748 Speaker 1: I'm trusting the Cowboys because they've found a situation, they 623 00:28:14,788 --> 00:28:17,428 Speaker 1: found a formula that is working for them as a 624 00:28:17,468 --> 00:28:20,508 Speaker 1: football team, even without Dak Prescott. We're gonna run the ball, 625 00:28:20,548 --> 00:28:22,868 Speaker 1: We're gonna get in our two playmakers hands at the 626 00:28:22,948 --> 00:28:25,588 Speaker 1: running back position, and then we're gonna pass off of that, 627 00:28:25,748 --> 00:28:28,628 Speaker 1: and has allowed Cooper Rush to remain undefeated in his career. Yes, 628 00:28:28,868 --> 00:28:31,148 Speaker 1: give me the defensive side of things here for the 629 00:28:31,188 --> 00:28:34,228 Speaker 1: Cowboys for why I'm trusting them right now. And Jason, 630 00:28:34,268 --> 00:28:36,148 Speaker 1: if I said to you a team held an opposing 631 00:28:36,148 --> 00:28:38,948 Speaker 1: team under three hundred yards passing in a game, that's 632 00:28:38,988 --> 00:28:41,588 Speaker 1: pretty good, right, good game? Cowboys have held every opponent 633 00:28:41,668 --> 00:28:45,348 Speaker 1: under two hundred yards passing. Let's go over these numbers here. 634 00:28:45,388 --> 00:28:47,148 Speaker 1: I'm looking at them, and I lost them. Here he 635 00:28:47,228 --> 00:28:50,668 Speaker 1: go defensively, one ninety five against the Buccaneers, one sixty 636 00:28:50,668 --> 00:28:53,628 Speaker 1: five against the Bengals, one sixty nine against the Giants, 637 00:28:53,628 --> 00:28:57,548 Speaker 1: and one fifty five against the Washington Commanders. And it's 638 00:28:57,588 --> 00:28:59,988 Speaker 1: not just how they're covering things in the back end, 639 00:28:59,988 --> 00:29:02,988 Speaker 1: it's what they're doing upfront. And DeMarcus Lawrence a guy 640 00:29:03,148 --> 00:29:05,508 Speaker 1: I don't want We've focused so much on Micael Parsons, 641 00:29:05,548 --> 00:29:08,188 Speaker 1: but DeMarcus Lawrence is a guy that had that resurgence. 642 00:29:08,188 --> 00:29:10,628 Speaker 1: Certainly against the Giants, he was dominant in that game. 643 00:29:10,668 --> 00:29:13,068 Speaker 1: I saw a tweet from his agent, David Kanner quote, 644 00:29:13,068 --> 00:29:16,148 Speaker 1: he's washed up. Fans said, media said they overpaid. Don't 645 00:29:16,148 --> 00:29:18,348 Speaker 1: get on the train. Now stay how you were not 646 00:29:18,468 --> 00:29:20,628 Speaker 1: know Oh you can't say that word not knowing bleep. 647 00:29:20,668 --> 00:29:22,348 Speaker 1: You can't say that word on the air, David, unless 648 00:29:22,348 --> 00:29:25,348 Speaker 1: you're well. Jamie Artle, I just I love what the 649 00:29:25,388 --> 00:29:27,548 Speaker 1: Cowboys are doing front to back on that the defense, 650 00:29:27,628 --> 00:29:29,548 Speaker 1: particularly against the pass, which is hard to do in 651 00:29:29,548 --> 00:29:32,948 Speaker 1: the NFL these days. I trust the Cowboys, Markyle. I'm 652 00:29:32,988 --> 00:29:35,348 Speaker 1: trying to get back to the comtes. All I want 653 00:29:35,348 --> 00:29:37,548 Speaker 1: to do is talk football, Mike. It's always the nonsense 654 00:29:37,588 --> 00:29:40,108 Speaker 1: with you. I trust Cooper Rush right now, That's who 655 00:29:40,148 --> 00:29:42,588 Speaker 1: I trust. I don't trust the Cowboys to do right 656 00:29:42,628 --> 00:29:45,068 Speaker 1: by Cooper Rush. I'm worried about this. It just here's 657 00:29:45,068 --> 00:29:47,548 Speaker 1: the facts. They've got three game win streak. They're playing 658 00:29:47,548 --> 00:29:50,468 Speaker 1: this different brand of football. It's boring, it's effective. The 659 00:29:50,508 --> 00:29:52,348 Speaker 1: defense we all talked about it. Cooper Rush is gonna 660 00:29:52,348 --> 00:29:55,148 Speaker 1: play this week against the Rams. If he wins this game, 661 00:29:56,028 --> 00:29:58,428 Speaker 1: you start his butt against the Eagles. I don't care 662 00:29:58,428 --> 00:30:01,708 Speaker 1: if that can grip nothing, you start them. It's a 663 00:30:01,708 --> 00:30:04,668 Speaker 1: four game win streak. The team is on fire, they're 664 00:30:04,748 --> 00:30:07,868 Speaker 1: they're playing cohesive, they're tight, they're together, and there's all 665 00:30:07,868 --> 00:30:10,628 Speaker 1: this theater involved with that Eagles game. You're starting to 666 00:30:10,708 --> 00:30:14,188 Speaker 1: hear Ian saye it's when Dak might return. So Jerry 667 00:30:14,308 --> 00:30:16,348 Speaker 1: as he does, you know, because he needs the money, 668 00:30:16,468 --> 00:30:19,068 Speaker 1: goes on one oh five three FM in Dallas and 669 00:30:19,188 --> 00:30:21,868 Speaker 1: he's straight up asked, is there a scenario where you 670 00:30:21,868 --> 00:30:25,028 Speaker 1: guys can see yourself sticking with Cooper Rush even if 671 00:30:25,108 --> 00:30:27,068 Speaker 1: Dak is healthy? And I'm gonna I'm gonna read you 672 00:30:27,148 --> 00:30:29,388 Speaker 1: the exact answer. It's a play in three acts. Will 673 00:30:29,428 --> 00:30:31,428 Speaker 1: you stick with Cooper Rush with Dak is healthy. No, 674 00:30:31,668 --> 00:30:35,268 Speaker 1: he waits, No, he waits as I see it right today, 675 00:30:35,508 --> 00:30:37,708 Speaker 1: like that's is it no? Or is I see it today? 676 00:30:37,788 --> 00:30:40,508 Speaker 1: Like that is so Jerry twisting the mustache. I am 677 00:30:40,548 --> 00:30:42,708 Speaker 1: really gonna be if he if Cooper Rush beats the 678 00:30:42,788 --> 00:30:44,508 Speaker 1: Rams and they sit him down and go back with Dak, 679 00:30:44,548 --> 00:30:46,468 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be furious. And I know that Dak is paid, 680 00:30:46,508 --> 00:30:48,348 Speaker 1: and I know he's the future, and he's saying, Dak 681 00:30:48,388 --> 00:30:51,508 Speaker 1: at one h you're sticking with Cooper Rush if he 682 00:30:51,508 --> 00:30:55,348 Speaker 1: wins this game, Yeah, at one hundred percent, not just football. 683 00:30:55,348 --> 00:30:57,948 Speaker 1: But that's the perfect follow Jason. But we're in this, 684 00:30:58,068 --> 00:31:00,508 Speaker 1: Lucy Goosey. What is one hundred percent even mean? I 685 00:31:00,548 --> 00:31:02,868 Speaker 1: think this handgrip thing is such the perfect dose of 686 00:31:02,908 --> 00:31:05,188 Speaker 1: BS to put on the decade, hundred at him if 687 00:31:05,308 --> 00:31:08,148 Speaker 1: Dak's ribs are healed, or if the doctor says, yeah, 688 00:31:08,148 --> 00:31:12,148 Speaker 1: his knee is good to go. Grip is a subjective thing, Dad, 689 00:31:12,188 --> 00:31:14,308 Speaker 1: Do you feel good grip in the football? Yeah? Do 690 00:31:14,348 --> 00:31:16,988 Speaker 1: you feel great? I feel good? Do you feel perfect? No? 691 00:31:17,188 --> 00:31:19,788 Speaker 1: Then sit down. I mean it's so easy to manipulate 692 00:31:20,068 --> 00:31:23,388 Speaker 1: gripping the ball as it opposed to a surgery, recovery 693 00:31:23,508 --> 00:31:25,828 Speaker 1: or something that an injury is more objective. And I 694 00:31:25,868 --> 00:31:27,788 Speaker 1: think if you've got a four game win streak and 695 00:31:27,828 --> 00:31:29,668 Speaker 1: this is all hypothetical, they may get crushed by the 696 00:31:29,748 --> 00:31:31,348 Speaker 1: Rims and he does the thing where he throws for 697 00:31:31,388 --> 00:31:33,148 Speaker 1: one hundred and ninety two yards and one touchdown and 698 00:31:33,228 --> 00:31:35,468 Speaker 1: no picks, and Tony Pollard this, you're sitting at him. 699 00:31:35,508 --> 00:31:37,468 Speaker 1: What happens if they sit him and Dad comes out 700 00:31:37,468 --> 00:31:39,428 Speaker 1: and throws three picks against the Eagles and they lose 701 00:31:39,468 --> 00:31:42,108 Speaker 1: by twelve points, by three touchdowns. I know Dack's the future. 702 00:31:42,148 --> 00:31:44,108 Speaker 1: I'm not saying you're gonna trade them. This is a 703 00:31:44,148 --> 00:31:48,028 Speaker 1: Brady Bledsoe situation right now. Stick with what's hot and 704 00:31:48,188 --> 00:31:51,268 Speaker 1: use the nonsense of football grip as an excuse to 705 00:31:51,308 --> 00:31:53,468 Speaker 1: do it. I don't think the football fans in Dallas, 706 00:31:53,468 --> 00:31:55,588 Speaker 1: by the way, are clamoring for Dad to get back either. 707 00:31:55,828 --> 00:31:57,788 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush is a thing. If he wins this weekend, 708 00:31:57,868 --> 00:31:59,748 Speaker 1: it's a real thing. Yeah, I'm just making sure we're 709 00:31:59,748 --> 00:32:02,028 Speaker 1: all on the same page here. They put the grips 710 00:32:02,068 --> 00:32:05,108 Speaker 1: drink out there to hedge their bets on an excuse 711 00:32:05,188 --> 00:32:07,908 Speaker 1: to right if they are undefeated under Cooper Rush and 712 00:32:07,908 --> 00:32:09,948 Speaker 1: they go to face the Eagles. They are allowed to 713 00:32:09,988 --> 00:32:11,988 Speaker 1: say like the grip's strength still not there yet, like 714 00:32:12,228 --> 00:32:14,988 Speaker 1: they are laying the foundation for the reason not to 715 00:32:15,028 --> 00:32:16,788 Speaker 1: play him next week. Right, we're all understand I've paid 716 00:32:16,868 --> 00:32:20,268 Speaker 1: no attention to that. Like Jerry Jones talking about if 717 00:32:20,268 --> 00:32:22,108 Speaker 1: he's clear about the doctors, he goes out there and 718 00:32:22,148 --> 00:32:25,348 Speaker 1: he has a week of practice where he practices Wednesday, Thursday, 719 00:32:25,348 --> 00:32:28,148 Speaker 1: and Friday. He makes all the throles leading up to 720 00:32:28,188 --> 00:32:30,948 Speaker 1: the Eagles game. Dak Prescott is going to start the game, 721 00:32:30,988 --> 00:32:33,268 Speaker 1: and he should start the game. Yes, Cooper Rush has 722 00:32:33,308 --> 00:32:35,188 Speaker 1: been good, but I mean he's thrown for maybe two 723 00:32:35,268 --> 00:32:37,188 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty yards a game, one touchdow. He's not 724 00:32:37,188 --> 00:32:39,828 Speaker 1: throwing an interception. He's not going out there and winning 725 00:32:39,828 --> 00:32:42,868 Speaker 1: these football games and just taking over. He's playing as 726 00:32:42,868 --> 00:32:45,028 Speaker 1: well as a backup quarterback should be playing. You're not 727 00:32:45,028 --> 00:32:47,148 Speaker 1: saying that there is some potential for like a private 728 00:32:47,228 --> 00:32:50,628 Speaker 1: room conversation between Mike McCarthy Dak Prescot on Cooper Rush. Like, guys, 729 00:32:50,748 --> 00:32:53,388 Speaker 1: let's have an agreement here. Let's just say it's still 730 00:32:53,388 --> 00:32:56,268 Speaker 1: your grip, Dak Prescott. I don't know and say you know, 731 00:32:56,268 --> 00:32:58,028 Speaker 1: I don't like Dak's in the room. Ye know, it's 732 00:32:58,068 --> 00:33:01,268 Speaker 1: the Jones Boys, and I think it's McCarthy and I 733 00:33:01,428 --> 00:33:02,908 Speaker 1: do yeah, And I think that they're gonna wait for 734 00:33:02,988 --> 00:33:05,468 Speaker 1: him to get as well as Russia's planning. They're gonna 735 00:33:05,468 --> 00:33:07,588 Speaker 1: wait for him to get healthy. Yet agree about this. 736 00:33:07,788 --> 00:33:10,268 Speaker 1: I'm just saying they're gonna wait for him to get healthy. Yes, yeah, 737 00:33:10,268 --> 00:33:12,508 Speaker 1: They're not gonna put him out there fresh off. Hey, 738 00:33:12,548 --> 00:33:14,948 Speaker 1: he goes out there, he has a limited Friday practice 739 00:33:14,988 --> 00:33:16,908 Speaker 1: and we're just all, go ahead, Dad, let's see what 740 00:33:16,948 --> 00:33:18,948 Speaker 1: you can do. Now. They're gonna want to see him 741 00:33:18,988 --> 00:33:21,148 Speaker 1: do it in practice. But when he does it is 742 00:33:21,468 --> 00:33:23,468 Speaker 1: it will be his show to take over. I want 743 00:33:23,468 --> 00:33:25,348 Speaker 1: to make sure it's it's all about the football. My 744 00:33:25,388 --> 00:33:28,388 Speaker 1: suspicion about Dallas Cowboys, it's always about merchandise in the show. 745 00:33:28,548 --> 00:33:32,948 Speaker 1: And I would hate the idea that Eagles primetime Dallas. 746 00:33:32,988 --> 00:33:36,108 Speaker 1: That's our grand return for Dak and let's sell jerseys 747 00:33:36,108 --> 00:33:39,348 Speaker 1: and do ratings, scrub win games if you're doing it, 748 00:33:39,388 --> 00:33:42,108 Speaker 1: because definitely Dak is gonna be better and he's fine. 749 00:33:42,148 --> 00:33:44,148 Speaker 1: But my suspicion with the Cowboys is always it's all 750 00:33:44,148 --> 00:33:46,228 Speaker 1: about the show, and the merchandise cook rush is a 751 00:33:46,308 --> 00:33:48,708 Speaker 1: terrible show, but he's undefeated. I don't know. I won't 752 00:33:48,748 --> 00:33:50,588 Speaker 1: argue that. I'll just quickly say that when I was 753 00:33:50,588 --> 00:33:52,348 Speaker 1: thinking about this question, I found it kind of like 754 00:33:52,388 --> 00:33:54,628 Speaker 1: a trap question because it's like, how can you trust 755 00:33:54,628 --> 00:33:56,188 Speaker 1: the rams, like with what we have seen the last 756 00:33:56,228 --> 00:33:58,068 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, So just the word trust maybe think 757 00:33:58,108 --> 00:33:59,788 Speaker 1: back to it. We're in gym class, would you like 758 00:33:59,788 --> 00:34:02,908 Speaker 1: to trust? Fall leftivity? Or like you you're standing up 759 00:34:02,908 --> 00:34:04,988 Speaker 1: there in your eyeserclos and you have the like there's 760 00:34:04,988 --> 00:34:07,428 Speaker 1: a person back there who's like, are you messing with me? 761 00:34:07,508 --> 00:34:09,548 Speaker 1: Like are your arms locked or you not? And like 762 00:34:09,788 --> 00:34:12,068 Speaker 1: here I go. It's like, who's the team you'd rather 763 00:34:12,108 --> 00:34:14,668 Speaker 1: have back there right now? Catching you? I think I'm 764 00:34:14,668 --> 00:34:16,868 Speaker 1: still gonna go with the Dallas Cowboys. There's just something 765 00:34:16,908 --> 00:34:18,828 Speaker 1: about the way they have come together and not come 766 00:34:18,868 --> 00:34:20,548 Speaker 1: apart of the seams in the last couple of weeks. 767 00:34:20,668 --> 00:34:23,148 Speaker 1: It's pretty cools. Fall here we go total access fur 768 00:34:23,268 --> 00:34:25,308 Speaker 1: to fall into the arms of Cooper rush Than while 769 00:34:25,348 --> 00:34:27,868 Speaker 1: Stafford's got a bad ELBOWK right exactly? I mean I 770 00:34:27,868 --> 00:34:30,268 Speaker 1: want to fall into the arms with Jimmy Garoppolo. Never mind, 771 00:34:30,828 --> 00:34:32,148 Speaker 1: the Cowboys don't care
