WEBVTT - Mick Shots: Game Ready

0:00:02.279 --> 0:00:04.800
<v Speaker 1>The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

0:00:04.800 --> 0:00:12.840
<v Speaker 1>and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club Cowboys. This is nick

0:00:13.080 --> 0:00:17.600
<v Speaker 1>shot screening live on Dallascowboys dot Com and the official

0:00:17.720 --> 0:00:22.360
<v Speaker 1>Dallas Cowboys at now Here are Bill Jones, Savannah Humoller,

0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Efferson Wolves, and Mickey Spagnola.

0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:31.320
<v Speaker 2>How fixed this?

0:00:33.200 --> 0:00:36.560
<v Speaker 3>Other than that, I've got to say, how about that?

0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Come stamp.

0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:06.160
<v Speaker 3>Well?

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:08.720
<v Speaker 2>I was going to start by saying three out of

0:01:08.800 --> 0:01:13.640
<v Speaker 2>four eight bad, since Bill Jones is out on assignment today,

0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:16.800
<v Speaker 2>but Everson might have made it two out of four

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:19.120
<v Speaker 2>since he was finishing his lunch.

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:21.679
<v Speaker 3>Time finishing it is not close to finish.

0:01:21.840 --> 0:01:26.160
<v Speaker 2>As producer Supreme Chris had a nice mix. There many

0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:30.800
<v Speaker 2>sound bites before we got to stampede. And this just

0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:34.600
<v Speaker 2>might be the earliest pregame show ever because we're getting

0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:41.759
<v Speaker 2>ready for Cowboys Seahawks on Thursday night at and T Stadium,

0:01:41.800 --> 0:01:44.400
<v Speaker 2>and glad you guys are with us on mix shots.

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm the Mick Everson and Joe Savannah here today and

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:53.400
<v Speaker 2>we will get you ready for the Seahawks. At some

0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 2>point we will have our picks and picks to click.

0:01:57.040 --> 0:02:01.440
<v Speaker 2>Bill Jones has already set him in with explanations too.

0:02:03.480 --> 0:02:06.280
<v Speaker 3>That was a very lengthy text right.

0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:08.680
<v Speaker 4>On the group text.

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:11.080
<v Speaker 2>I think he just sent it. He must have just

0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:13.799
<v Speaker 2>sent it. I thought he just texted me. You were

0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:16.480
<v Speaker 2>on it. Oh, yeah you were, because you said, okay,

0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:17.320
<v Speaker 2>that's right.

0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:21.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I'm sending it to Savannah right now.

0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:21.239
<v Speaker 6>No.

0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:25.639
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to be a surprise for Yeah, yeah, surprise me. Wait,

0:02:28.560 --> 0:02:30.680
<v Speaker 2>I got half a page of notes here on my

0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 2>legal pad to explain Bill's picks that he was off

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:38.520
<v Speaker 2>on assignment in I had to go to Fort Worth.

0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:43.720
<v Speaker 2>So here we are a little more than let's see,

0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:49.240
<v Speaker 2>seven thirty one hours before kickoff. I think if my

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:54.960
<v Speaker 2>math is accurate with the Cowboys needing to win this game,

0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:59.400
<v Speaker 2>as we've been talking about, to win four straight and

0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:04.079
<v Speaker 2>stay within at least just two games of the Philadelphia

0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Eagles in the race for the NFC East title, and

0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:11.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, it sounds like, and I'm gonna see what

0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 2>you guys think from listening that they seem to be

0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:18.760
<v Speaker 2>focused on Seattle and not getting ahead of themselves.

0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:19.680
<v Speaker 3>They'd better be.

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:23.360
<v Speaker 5>I mean, you know, this is what this is our test.

0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:26.880
<v Speaker 5>The test is not what's on the field necessarily is

0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:31.399
<v Speaker 5>not necessarily our opponents you know, it's you know, can

0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:34.519
<v Speaker 5>we not make the same mistakes that we've been prone

0:03:34.560 --> 0:03:38.200
<v Speaker 5>to make in the past, and that is, you know,

0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 5>playing down two expectations much below expectations. I mean, that's

0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:47.920
<v Speaker 5>something that as this team needs to mature in that fashion.

0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:50.280
<v Speaker 5>You know, everyone needs to be on the same page

0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:53.040
<v Speaker 5>and regards to gods. We can't go out there in

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.480
<v Speaker 5>a slump. We can't go out there saying, oh, we

0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:57.760
<v Speaker 5>need to warm up, this is a we had a

0:03:57.800 --> 0:04:00.920
<v Speaker 5>bad day. You know, right now this team needs to

0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 5>be passed all of those type of ailments that you

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 5>got to deal with. Now, let's just play ball the

0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:09.120
<v Speaker 5>way we're supposed to play every week.

0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:11.320
<v Speaker 3>If we're supposed to blow them out, let's blow them out.

0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:13.800
<v Speaker 5>If we're going to have a tough game, let's make

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.599
<v Speaker 5>the plays that were supposed to make to win those

0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:19.880
<v Speaker 5>tough games in tough situations. No foot out of bounds

0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:24.720
<v Speaker 5>like against Philadelphia, and no problems with running pick plays

0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:26.520
<v Speaker 5>like we had against Philadelphia.

0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:30.640
<v Speaker 2>So so far, so good. Beat the Giants as they

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:33.360
<v Speaker 2>should have, and they beat them forty nine to seventeen.

0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:36.359
<v Speaker 2>They beat Carolina on the road as they should have

0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:42.040
<v Speaker 2>thirty three ten, and they thump Washington on Thanksgiving forty

0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:46.360
<v Speaker 2>five ten, So that's three. So Savannah, what do you think?

0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:49.960
<v Speaker 2>What was your feel listening to the press conferences and

0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:51.839
<v Speaker 2>being in the locker room this week.

0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:57.039
<v Speaker 7>I feel the guys are very focused on Seattle, which

0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 7>is good. And I know coach McCarthy has talked about

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:03.159
<v Speaker 7>in the press conference this week is they were not

0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:06.840
<v Speaker 7>focused on the Philly game that was playing on Sunday.

0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:09.920
<v Speaker 7>They were here in the facility working on things that

0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 7>they needed to work on for this upcoming Seattle game.

0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:15.760
<v Speaker 4>Their mind should not be onto Philly.

0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:16.000
<v Speaker 3>Yet.

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:18.720
<v Speaker 7>We have to get through tomorrow and this is still

0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:21.520
<v Speaker 7>going to be a hard matchup for them. The Seattle

0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:25.920
<v Speaker 7>Seahawks are are six and five. They've had some struggles recently. However,

0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:28.560
<v Speaker 7>you have to take this game by game, and the

0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:31.719
<v Speaker 7>players seem to be very focused on what will be

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:32.719
<v Speaker 7>happening tomorrow.

0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because if you start focusing on what other people

0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 2>are doing, you'll just be miserable.

0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:41.280
<v Speaker 3>Well, you have to look at the potential of the

0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:42.520
<v Speaker 3>Seahawks right.

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:46.360
<v Speaker 5>Yes, they're trending downward, but at one point and even

0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:49.960
<v Speaker 5>a lot of points doing this streak of losses that

0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:53.400
<v Speaker 5>they've had. They've shown that they can do some things.

0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:55.520
<v Speaker 5>You know, they've shown that they can run the ball.

0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:57.360
<v Speaker 5>This guy Walker is no joke.

0:05:57.920 --> 0:05:59.560
<v Speaker 3>You know. He's one of the hardest running.

0:05:59.320 --> 0:06:02.440
<v Speaker 5>Running backs in the in the NFL right now, you know,

0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:05.800
<v Speaker 5>and he's really their horse. They're going to depend on

0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:08.640
<v Speaker 5>him a lot doing this game. And don't sleep on Geno.

0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 3>You know. Geno's a guy.

0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:14.159
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, he's had his issues, but we've also seen the

0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:16.680
<v Speaker 5>guy made the Pro Bowl, you know. I mean, I

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:19.040
<v Speaker 5>know Pro Bowl could be watered down these days, but

0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:21.800
<v Speaker 5>the guy made the Pro Bowl. So he's still if

0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.480
<v Speaker 5>you're looking at it, he's on the on the upside

0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:27.120
<v Speaker 5>of the of the fifty percent of the quarterbacks in

0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:27.680
<v Speaker 5>the NFL.

0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:31.240
<v Speaker 2>So they have lost two straight, three of the last four,

0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:35.520
<v Speaker 2>not scoring a lot of points. And I think yesterday

0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:40.640
<v Speaker 2>Pete Carroll chose to point out that Geno Smith in

0:06:40.720 --> 0:06:47.520
<v Speaker 2>the last game they played, that he was suffering from

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:52.039
<v Speaker 2>an elbow injury, that he didn't practice hardly at all

0:06:52.080 --> 0:07:00.360
<v Speaker 2>before the Thanksgiving Day game and they didn't play very

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:02.800
<v Speaker 2>well offensively. Now he said he had one of his

0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:07.920
<v Speaker 2>best practices of the week this week, or of the year,

0:07:08.000 --> 0:07:10.640
<v Speaker 2>I should say, and that he's ready to go. So

0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:14.520
<v Speaker 2>we'll see if that was the reason why they short

0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:20.080
<v Speaker 2>circuited offensively, what did they They got beat pretty good

0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:28.360
<v Speaker 2>the last game by San Francisco thirty one thirteen, and

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:36.440
<v Speaker 2>they only scored I want to say, one touchdown if

0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 2>I remember correctly, and it was an interception return for

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:45.680
<v Speaker 2>a touchdo, so the offense basically two field goals. So yeah,

0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:46.880
<v Speaker 2>they've been struggling.

0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:50.520
<v Speaker 5>So at this point, we haven't shown that we are

0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:54.800
<v Speaker 5>as consistent as San Francisco's defense. That's one thing that

0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.160
<v Speaker 5>we can say. We haven't shown that we're as consistent

0:07:57.280 --> 0:08:00.600
<v Speaker 5>as they are. So with them, you know, playing the

0:08:00.640 --> 0:08:03.360
<v Speaker 5>way that they played, I wouldn't look forward to us

0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:06.480
<v Speaker 5>blowing anyone out and they would show that on my

0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:07.160
<v Speaker 5>picks to click.

0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:08.920
<v Speaker 3>I look at this game.

0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.640
<v Speaker 5>It's going to be a tough game because first of all,

0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:13.360
<v Speaker 5>they're well coached team.

0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:13.840
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:16.920
<v Speaker 5>Anytime you have a well coached team, then the scheme

0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 5>alone can give you problems from the beginning.

0:08:19.760 --> 0:08:22.880
<v Speaker 2>And I was gonna at one point ask each of

0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:25.480
<v Speaker 2>you to give me a key to victory. But since

0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:30.360
<v Speaker 2>you brought that up, I was going to borrow jay

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:33.040
<v Speaker 2>Ron curse because I asked him, what do you need

0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:38.960
<v Speaker 2>to do defensively to be able to deal with these Seahawks,

0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:44.840
<v Speaker 2>and he said tackling, tackling, tackling, And his point was

0:08:45.160 --> 0:08:48.400
<v Speaker 2>you mentioned Walker. He's only five to nine, but he's

0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:52.280
<v Speaker 2>two eleven, so he's kind of a load when he's

0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 2>running the ball.

0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:55.280
<v Speaker 3>And mis Smith wasn't that tall either.

0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, right, so you got to watch out for him.

0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:02.320
<v Speaker 2>Sharbonneau the second running at six one two fourteen, so

0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:04.720
<v Speaker 2>a big back, and then you got to deal with

0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 2>DK metcalf right six four, two thirty five and he's

0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:14.720
<v Speaker 2>averaging fifteen point eight yards on his forty three catches.

0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:17.839
<v Speaker 2>So that was his point that we better be able

0:09:17.880 --> 0:09:19.120
<v Speaker 2>to tackle in this game.

0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:22.600
<v Speaker 5>Say anything about Lockett, yeah, I mean, come on, and

0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:26.319
<v Speaker 5>Lockett there is more main anyone on the team. And

0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:30.360
<v Speaker 5>he does everything from pump returns to catching big plays

0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:32.240
<v Speaker 5>to I think he can even throw the ball.

0:09:32.720 --> 0:09:36.520
<v Speaker 3>So he's one of those guys man triple threat. Yeah,

0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:38.960
<v Speaker 3>he can do. He can do everything that they need

0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:39.640
<v Speaker 3>him to do.

0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:44.240
<v Speaker 5>As far as those gadget players, and you know Pete

0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:47.280
<v Speaker 5>Carroll is going to have some type of gadget play.

0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:50.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah for us, So either on offense or special team,

0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:53.000
<v Speaker 2>no doubt, no doubt. And you know they're gonna they're

0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:55.840
<v Speaker 2>gonna want to come in here and run the football, yeah,

0:09:55.920 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 2>and try to reduce the time that the Cowboys offense

0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:02.760
<v Speaker 2>and take the crowd out of the game. Right, And

0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:07.480
<v Speaker 2>the Cowboys don't have to make any moves today. They

0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:11.680
<v Speaker 2>just have to make them tomorrow. So they can do

0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:20.760
<v Speaker 2>it up to four hours before the deadline to make moves.

0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:25.720
<v Speaker 2>So sometime tomorrow, my understanding is they'll probably have an elevation.

0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:29.760
<v Speaker 2>So you know what I'm kind of thinking, I'm trying

0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:33.640
<v Speaker 2>to figure out who they might elevate off the practice squad. Now,

0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:40.120
<v Speaker 2>ricco'doddell was in practice yesterday fully, so he should be

0:10:40.200 --> 0:10:44.720
<v Speaker 2>able to go. I should look that up just to

0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:48.240
<v Speaker 2>make sure. I mean, he was limited, but at least

0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:52.200
<v Speaker 2>he's been limited, been in practice, so there's a good

0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:54.920
<v Speaker 2>chance I think he's going. If he's not, then one

0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:58.640
<v Speaker 2>of those elevations will be Malik Davis, the other guy

0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:01.320
<v Speaker 2>they were worried about during the week, jay Ron Curse.

0:11:02.000 --> 0:11:04.560
<v Speaker 2>He was full yesterday. In my understanding, he was going

0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:07.600
<v Speaker 2>to practice again today, so he should be able to go.

0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:12.560
<v Speaker 2>They've had a little bit of illness going through the roster,

0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:18.880
<v Speaker 2>and it was Dante Fowler did not practice the past

0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:21.320
<v Speaker 2>two days, but my understanding, he was supposed to be

0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:27.040
<v Speaker 2>out there today along with Michael Parsons. Yesterday he had

0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:31.240
<v Speaker 2>the illness, but he was supposed to be out there. Now.

0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:35.280
<v Speaker 2>It's not a heavy practice right on day before the game,

0:11:35.400 --> 0:11:39.120
<v Speaker 2>but from an injury standpoint, they should be pretty good.

0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:46.600
<v Speaker 2>I was just wondering, if they're worried about Seattle running

0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:50.640
<v Speaker 2>the ball, if they might elevate the defensive tackle. I

0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:55.720
<v Speaker 2>almost forgot he was here, Carl Davis, who's a big body,

0:11:56.120 --> 0:12:00.960
<v Speaker 2>if they needed another one inside. And now Misie Smith

0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:04.080
<v Speaker 2>did practice this week fully, but he had a little

0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:06.920
<v Speaker 2>bit of a shoulder thing going. So they may want

0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:09.280
<v Speaker 2>to load up and get a little heavier in the

0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 2>middle there going into this game. So we'll see what

0:12:13.559 --> 0:12:16.720
<v Speaker 2>happens with that one going forward.

0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:20.240
<v Speaker 7>I think overall, whether they decide to run the ball

0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:24.280
<v Speaker 7>more or Smith is making those passes down to lock

0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:29.240
<v Speaker 7>it and Metcalf, the entire defense needs to be alert

0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:32.920
<v Speaker 7>and be willing to make those tackles. And one player

0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:36.800
<v Speaker 7>that I mentioned earlier this week in the flashback show

0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:37.240
<v Speaker 7>that I'm.

0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:40.040
<v Speaker 4>Looking up for was Jordan Lewis.

0:12:40.280 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Speaker 7>Okay, I noticed in the Commander's game, so he had

0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:48.520
<v Speaker 7>six tackles for solo to assist, and he had a

0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:52.800
<v Speaker 7>pretty good pass breakup at one point. But you know

0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:56.800
<v Speaker 7>that they are not going to be throwing it down

0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.679
<v Speaker 7>the way If Deron Bland is covering, that's going to

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:04.240
<v Speaker 7>be part of their scheme definitely. And so you know

0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:09.080
<v Speaker 7>that they're gonna go to guys curse Jordan Lewis, a

0:13:09.120 --> 0:13:12.160
<v Speaker 7>few other guys down there in the secondary, and I

0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:15.680
<v Speaker 7>think Jordan Lewis might be key for this.

0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:17.600
<v Speaker 4>I think he needs to past breakups.

0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Right, we'll be talgeting and and and to amplify what

0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Savannah said, one of the reasons sometimes the cornerback and

0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:29.160
<v Speaker 2>you can help me, has a lot of tackles being

0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:31.280
<v Speaker 2>completing passes to his.

0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:37.280
<v Speaker 5>Guy, rightokie year, I mean a lot of tackles that

0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:38.480
<v Speaker 5>guy Walls is hitting them.

0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:40.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's hit them all right, Yeah after the four

0:13:41.320 --> 0:13:41.840
<v Speaker 3>down the field.

0:13:41.880 --> 0:13:45.360
<v Speaker 2>Because I saw in the game, I think Bland was

0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:48.920
<v Speaker 2>second or third in tackles in this past game. It's like, well, yeah,

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:52.599
<v Speaker 2>but his guy was catching a lot of until he

0:13:52.720 --> 0:13:55.080
<v Speaker 2>got the interception, and you know what, And that's the

0:13:55.160 --> 0:13:59.200
<v Speaker 2>cue everybody asked me about cornerbacks. It's like, you're not

0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:03.679
<v Speaker 2>gonna ro shutouts. There's a reason why these quarterbacks pass

0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:06.840
<v Speaker 2>for four thousand and five thousand yards. They're completing passes.

0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:10.200
<v Speaker 2>But if you're a cornerback, the deal is, make me

0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:13.480
<v Speaker 2>a play right to compensate for the ones that you're

0:14:13.600 --> 0:14:17.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna give up. It's gonna happen. You can't pitch a shutout,

0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:20.040
<v Speaker 2>but make me a play to compensate. And you know,

0:14:20.240 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 2>and obviously he did.

0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:24.680
<v Speaker 5>It's like the mentality is it's a marathon, it's not

0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:27.360
<v Speaker 5>a sprint. And I had to play that way myself.

0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.760
<v Speaker 5>I can't just shut everybody down, especially with my lack

0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:33.560
<v Speaker 5>of speed. You got some amazing athletes on the wide

0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:36.240
<v Speaker 5>receiver side. You know, sometimes you have to play a

0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:39.360
<v Speaker 5>chess game, you know, you have to. You know, okay, yeah,

0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:41.200
<v Speaker 5>you got this one, But what's a ten year old

0:14:41.240 --> 0:14:41.800
<v Speaker 5>route gonna do?

0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:43.760
<v Speaker 3>It won't hurt me, yeah, you know.

0:14:43.760 --> 0:14:46.080
<v Speaker 5>The closer you get to the end zone, then things

0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:48.240
<v Speaker 5>get tightened up a little bit. And that's the way

0:14:48.280 --> 0:14:50.480
<v Speaker 5>I always used to play it, which is a smart

0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:52.840
<v Speaker 5>way for the Cowboys to play it. Don't worry about

0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:54.720
<v Speaker 5>you can't worry about d passes on the other side

0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:57.040
<v Speaker 5>of the fifty yard line. That's when you start tightening

0:14:57.080 --> 0:14:59.120
<v Speaker 5>things up. But when you when you're down there on

0:14:59.200 --> 0:15:02.280
<v Speaker 5>the twenty, why are you jumping on the ten yeard

0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:04.880
<v Speaker 5>route when you might get beat for an eighty yard touchdown?

0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:08.040
<v Speaker 5>You know this is you got to keep things into perspective.

0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:11.840
<v Speaker 5>Play for the team, not necessarily for yourself. To have

0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:13.680
<v Speaker 5>this Monica as a shutdown corner.

0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:17.400
<v Speaker 2>And as Savannah pointed out, Jordan did have a pass

0:15:17.480 --> 0:15:21.560
<v Speaker 2>breakup or two, So that's making them that's making right, yes, correct,

0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:22.320
<v Speaker 2>and that's what.

0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:24.840
<v Speaker 5>You But will he will be targeted because I think

0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:27.480
<v Speaker 5>they've shown that, you know, if you're gonna look at

0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:29.840
<v Speaker 5>the weaknesses in our secondary, then he might be one

0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:34.120
<v Speaker 5>of those guys. You know, coming off the injury, we

0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:37.800
<v Speaker 5>were one dB down with Diggs and so he's kind

0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:40.160
<v Speaker 5>of put into position that he's not that much that

0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:43.640
<v Speaker 5>comfortable in. So yeah, I think they're gonna come at him.

0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:47.160
<v Speaker 2>And think what's happened. They team's probably started off the

0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:50.880
<v Speaker 2>season going well, I don't know that Gilmour guys pretty good. Yeah,

0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:53.560
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna throw the ball somewhere else. Well, then Diggs

0:15:53.600 --> 0:15:56.320
<v Speaker 2>gets hurt. Bland's got to go outside, and if they

0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:59.480
<v Speaker 2>hadn't done their homework, it realized how well he played

0:15:59.480 --> 0:16:02.880
<v Speaker 2>outside last year. Right now it's like, well, I don't know,

0:16:02.960 --> 0:16:03.840
<v Speaker 2>we want to go there.

0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:06.680
<v Speaker 3>Now we're going to go to the slot. They're going

0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:07.760
<v Speaker 3>to go to the slot.

0:16:07.480 --> 0:16:09.560
<v Speaker 2>Because if you think about in the Carolina game, that's

0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:14.120
<v Speaker 2>where Thieling did all his work from the slots.

0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:16.840
<v Speaker 5>And he just has to be patient. There's a defensive bag.

0:16:16.880 --> 0:16:19.040
<v Speaker 5>You just got to be patient. You can't get frustrated.

0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:22.080
<v Speaker 5>I know the optics are bad. You know you're always

0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:25.320
<v Speaker 5>chasing a guy down the field ten fifteen yards or whatever.

0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:27.400
<v Speaker 3>But once again, this is a marathon.

0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:31.920
<v Speaker 2>It's not a sprint, absolutely, and this podcast is a

0:16:31.960 --> 0:16:38.520
<v Speaker 2>marathon too. While sixteen here on a Wednesday at the

0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:43.200
<v Speaker 2>Star in Frisco, and we will return and give a

0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:48.840
<v Speaker 2>little update or what we can on Shaquille Leonard's travels

0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:50.600
<v Speaker 2>here in the NFL.

0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:55.680
<v Speaker 6>On mix shots, I'm Dak Prescott, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.

0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:57.800
<v Speaker 8>And they snapped the press guy who looks right, it's

0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:00.920
<v Speaker 8>not there. He escapes left punch down.

0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.640
<v Speaker 6>Just like football when it comes to crypto, it's important

0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:06.280

0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:30.560
<v Speaker 9>first nacho chip with its perfect cheese to sour cream ratio,

0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:33.520
<v Speaker 9>sitting atop a layer of delicious beans. It's a sip

0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:38.119
<v Speaker 9>away from perfection. That's what we're looking for. Add a delicious,

0:17:38.119 --> 0:17:42.160
<v Speaker 9>refreshing pepsi, and we've achieved absolute nacho nirvana. Because while

0:17:42.160 --> 0:17:45.120
<v Speaker 9>you can pile those nachos high with every spicy, cheesy,

0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:47.400
<v Speaker 9>savory topping, there's no topping.

0:17:47.119 --> 0:17:48.080
<v Speaker 4>Of cool pepsi.

0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:50.840
<v Speaker 9>Finish nachos better with pepsi.

0:17:51.160 --> 0:17:51.919
<v Speaker 3>That's what I like.

0:19:06.720 --> 0:19:10.679
<v Speaker 2>Ever since, Savannah and Mickey here today Bill Out on

0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:15.480
<v Speaker 2>assignment as we get you ready for the Seattle Seahawks

0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:19.119
<v Speaker 2>and I thought we'd give a little update on Shaquille

0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:24.240
<v Speaker 2>Leonard visiting here yesterday. We talked about it yesterday, Savannah.

0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:27.400
<v Speaker 2>I got a personal view of.

0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:29.040
<v Speaker 4>Him, right, I did.

0:19:29.240 --> 0:19:32.760
<v Speaker 7>He was walking through with a big group of people

0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:36.040
<v Speaker 7>through the lunch room. He was walking over to the

0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:38.879
<v Speaker 7>football side, so I think he did his workout in

0:19:38.920 --> 0:19:41.879
<v Speaker 7>the morning. He was scheduled to have lunch with Jerry

0:19:41.960 --> 0:19:44.879
<v Speaker 7>yesterday and today he is in Philly.

0:19:45.280 --> 0:19:48.080
<v Speaker 2>So he was supposed to travel to Philly the Cowboys.

0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:52.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure got a physical in, had a good visit.

0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:56.920
<v Speaker 2>Nothing took place, as I think we told you yesterday.

0:19:56.960 --> 0:20:02.560
<v Speaker 2>He ended up leaving and heading to Philadelphia. And you

0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:06.159
<v Speaker 2>know what, I just saw something that I thought, Oh,

0:20:06.280 --> 0:20:09.520
<v Speaker 2>this is what's going to happen. So he was with

0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:13.640
<v Speaker 2>the Colts right all these five years, six years since

0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:19.760
<v Speaker 2>twenty eighteen. For three years while he was there, Siriani

0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:21.879
<v Speaker 2>was the offensive course.

0:20:25.240 --> 0:20:26.320
<v Speaker 3>Oh that's crazy.

0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:29.440
<v Speaker 2>And if you guys know, Siriani is the head coach

0:20:29.480 --> 0:20:34.480
<v Speaker 2>in Philadelphia. And I saw where his off season workout

0:20:34.560 --> 0:20:39.640
<v Speaker 2>partners Dante Smith. So he's got some connections there. Now.

0:20:40.119 --> 0:20:43.280
<v Speaker 2>We thought he had connections here having played with Gilmour

0:20:44.200 --> 0:20:48.399
<v Speaker 2>along with Malie Cooker and someone asked Jerry, Oh, they

0:20:48.400 --> 0:20:51.960
<v Speaker 2>asked him on his radio show on Tuesday, do you

0:20:52.080 --> 0:20:55.679
<v Speaker 2>ask those guys about him? You played with him? And

0:20:55.760 --> 0:20:59.440
<v Speaker 2>he was like, this is the easiest scouting job ever.

0:21:00.160 --> 0:21:02.600
<v Speaker 2>Turn on the tape and we probably don't need to

0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:06.879
<v Speaker 2>ask a lot of questions. But Jerry's point was, you know,

0:21:07.040 --> 0:21:10.400
<v Speaker 2>we got to find out where he is basically in

0:21:10.440 --> 0:21:13.919
<v Speaker 2>his career and what's the health issue, and then after

0:21:13.960 --> 0:21:16.840
<v Speaker 2>that is okay, what can we do something to be

0:21:16.880 --> 0:21:21.280
<v Speaker 2>able to sign them. So evidently whatever they had up

0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:25.359
<v Speaker 2>their sleeve certainly wasn't convincing enough to keep him from

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:29.960
<v Speaker 2>taking the visit to Philadelphia. And they are down two

0:21:30.040 --> 0:21:33.840
<v Speaker 2>linebackers right now. I just we mentioned yesterday Nikobe Dean

0:21:34.760 --> 0:21:39.160
<v Speaker 2>is out and Zach Cunningham was injured in this past

0:21:39.240 --> 0:21:42.000
<v Speaker 2>game against Buffalo, and I thought I just saw a

0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:44.560
<v Speaker 2>headline saying he's probably out for this game too.

0:21:45.240 --> 0:21:48.640
<v Speaker 7>So what were the other two teams that were interested

0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:49.040
<v Speaker 7>as well?

0:21:49.080 --> 0:21:49.640
<v Speaker 4>That he was.

0:21:49.640 --> 0:21:55.520
<v Speaker 2>Potentially Goo and Pittsburgh. So that's the two other teams

0:21:55.520 --> 0:21:57.639
<v Speaker 2>that came up. I didn't you know, obviously they can

0:21:57.680 --> 0:22:01.560
<v Speaker 2>come out of his agent's mouth. Uh, but yeah, they're

0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:03.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean they're playing it slick.

0:22:03.320 --> 0:22:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:06.080
<v Speaker 2>If you're a free agent, the best thing you can

0:22:06.119 --> 0:22:08.560
<v Speaker 2>do is try to find two teams that are interested

0:22:08.560 --> 0:22:10.200
<v Speaker 2>in yeah right, get.

0:22:10.080 --> 0:22:12.920
<v Speaker 3>Some money, right, get some more money. Bid them against

0:22:12.960 --> 0:22:13.280
<v Speaker 3>each other.

0:22:13.359 --> 0:22:15.760
<v Speaker 2>That's what you did, right, I had, I didn't, you.

0:22:15.720 --> 0:22:18.199
<v Speaker 5>Know, coming out, I was of course undrafted, and so

0:22:18.240 --> 0:22:20.159
<v Speaker 5>I didn't have to get a chance to go through

0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:22.200
<v Speaker 5>all that stuff. I didn't get to go go through

0:22:22.200 --> 0:22:24.720
<v Speaker 5>the whole recruiting thing out of high school. You know,

0:22:24.760 --> 0:22:27.399
<v Speaker 5>I just played that one year at Bergner, right, So

0:22:27.440 --> 0:22:28.920
<v Speaker 5>it wasn't like it was a bunch of people out

0:22:28.920 --> 0:22:31.320
<v Speaker 5>there looking for me. The only time I had a

0:22:31.440 --> 0:22:36.600
<v Speaker 5>chance to experience something like that was when I left

0:22:36.600 --> 0:22:39.760
<v Speaker 5>the Cowboys and I was looking to go to either

0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:44.600
<v Speaker 5>the Giants or the Seahawks, and I recalled, I went

0:22:44.640 --> 0:22:47.480
<v Speaker 5>to see the Seahawks first, and I'm just like you said,

0:22:47.680 --> 0:22:49.320
<v Speaker 5>you want to you want to milk it. You know,

0:22:49.680 --> 0:22:52.399
<v Speaker 5>it's you know, it's good for your ego to have

0:22:52.440 --> 0:22:54.760
<v Speaker 5>a couple of teams looking at you. And so I

0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:56.760
<v Speaker 5>went to Seattle first and I worked out up there.

0:22:57.040 --> 0:23:02.000
<v Speaker 5>They have sand based turf, sand based turf, Yes, I

0:23:02.040 --> 0:23:03.280
<v Speaker 5>had never run on that before.

0:23:03.320 --> 0:23:04.960
<v Speaker 3>First of all. It makes you slow as hell.

0:23:05.080 --> 0:23:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Their practice field.

0:23:06.160 --> 0:23:09.600
<v Speaker 5>Their practice field had sand. It wasn't so the field

0:23:09.640 --> 0:23:13.920
<v Speaker 5>wasn't flat, you know, it almost you know, oh yeah, yeah,

0:23:13.960 --> 0:23:16.000
<v Speaker 5>because you know it's it's sand based like a beach.

0:23:16.240 --> 0:23:20.120
<v Speaker 3>Yes, that's the best, very good man.

0:23:20.240 --> 0:23:22.920
<v Speaker 5>So I ended up you know, working out for them there,

0:23:23.400 --> 0:23:25.359
<v Speaker 5>but all the time, because I had to call for

0:23:25.520 --> 0:23:28.639
<v Speaker 5>sales myself all the time, I was I knew I

0:23:28.640 --> 0:23:30.000
<v Speaker 5>was going to New York. I just wanted to go

0:23:30.080 --> 0:23:32.239
<v Speaker 5>up there and get my ego stroke right. And so

0:23:32.280 --> 0:23:33.760
<v Speaker 5>I went up there, and uh, you.

0:23:33.880 --> 0:23:35.879
<v Speaker 4>To weigh your options. You have to play a little

0:23:35.880 --> 0:23:36.960
<v Speaker 4>hard to get you.

0:23:36.920 --> 0:23:39.320
<v Speaker 3>Know, yeah, you want to you know, make that tick

0:23:39.400 --> 0:23:40.119
<v Speaker 3>go up a little bit.

0:23:40.600 --> 0:23:43.879
<v Speaker 5>And so, uh, Pete Care it wasn't Pete Care. I

0:23:43.920 --> 0:23:46.199
<v Speaker 5>forget who the coach was, but Tom floyd Is was

0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:48.720
<v Speaker 5>the GM and I had never met Tom. You know,

0:23:48.760 --> 0:23:51.920
<v Speaker 5>he's with the Raiders all that time, and uh, they

0:23:51.960 --> 0:23:55.120
<v Speaker 5>wanted to make me stay, and I'm just like, uh, Leonard,

0:23:55.400 --> 0:23:57.760
<v Speaker 5>I'm like nah, I knew where I was going, right,

0:23:57.880 --> 0:24:00.720
<v Speaker 5>I knew I wasn't going to Seattle. I knew I

0:24:00.760 --> 0:24:02.760
<v Speaker 5>was gonna be with the Giants. That's why because I

0:24:02.840 --> 0:24:06.240
<v Speaker 5>called them. Seattle called me. You see, that was the difference.

0:24:06.520 --> 0:24:07.919
<v Speaker 5>So when I went to New York. You know, when

0:24:07.960 --> 0:24:10.760
<v Speaker 5>I went to the to the Seahawks and I left

0:24:10.760 --> 0:24:12.720
<v Speaker 5>out of there, he did not want me to leave,

0:24:12.840 --> 0:24:15.760
<v Speaker 5>just like Jerry did. Leonard Floyd did not want me

0:24:15.800 --> 0:24:18.000
<v Speaker 5>to leave that room without signing that contract. And I

0:24:18.000 --> 0:24:19.440
<v Speaker 5>told him, I said, I'm a man of my word.

0:24:19.960 --> 0:24:21.720
<v Speaker 5>I told the Giants I come to see him, and

0:24:21.720 --> 0:24:24.040
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to see them. So I went to see them,

0:24:24.040 --> 0:24:26.480
<v Speaker 5>and I knew that's what I was going to be, right, yeah,

0:24:26.520 --> 0:24:28.840
<v Speaker 5>so obviously turned out to be a war.

0:24:29.520 --> 0:24:30.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:24:30.960 --> 0:24:34.679
<v Speaker 5>Matter of fact, the Giants offered me less than the Seahawks.

0:24:34.960 --> 0:24:37.119
<v Speaker 5>That's how much I was willing to go to New

0:24:37.200 --> 0:24:40.280
<v Speaker 5>York because the Giants they weren't giving out signing bonuses.

0:24:40.840 --> 0:24:43.280
<v Speaker 5>Seahawks were given out signing bonuses. But I knew they

0:24:43.320 --> 0:24:45.280
<v Speaker 5>weren't going anywhere. And I don't know what they did

0:24:45.359 --> 0:24:47.440
<v Speaker 5>in nineteen ninety, but I know what I did in

0:24:47.520 --> 0:24:48.160
<v Speaker 5>nineteen ninety.

0:24:48.200 --> 0:24:50.520
<v Speaker 2>So I was right, yeah, sort of like me going

0:24:50.560 --> 0:24:54.000
<v Speaker 2>to college. Right, Missouri outbid Northern Illinois.

0:24:55.760 --> 0:25:02.959
<v Speaker 5>Oh that made the papers, Yeah right, you were going

0:25:03.040 --> 0:25:03.960
<v Speaker 5>to say the.

0:25:04.560 --> 0:25:07.400
<v Speaker 7>I know we talked about last week in a little

0:25:07.440 --> 0:25:11.959
<v Speaker 7>bit of this week for Leonard that yeah, he's going

0:25:12.000 --> 0:25:15.640
<v Speaker 7>to want to go somewhere where there's a potential, you know,

0:25:16.560 --> 0:25:19.480
<v Speaker 7>winning team at the end of this, right, and so

0:25:19.520 --> 0:25:22.960
<v Speaker 7>he has to weigh his options. The money wasn't necessarily

0:25:24.480 --> 0:25:27.040
<v Speaker 7>what was at the forefront of his mind. It's more

0:25:27.359 --> 0:25:29.840
<v Speaker 7>what team is going to win you a championship?

0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:33.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he just got paid, and he's getting.

0:25:33.000 --> 0:25:34.960
<v Speaker 4>Paid, yeah, continuously paid.

0:25:35.000 --> 0:25:37.000
<v Speaker 2>He gets a million a year for six I mean

0:25:37.040 --> 0:25:40.800
<v Speaker 2>a year a game for the final five or six games. However,

0:25:40.800 --> 0:25:46.040
<v Speaker 2>many the Colts have left and he's already made his

0:25:46.200 --> 0:25:52.639
<v Speaker 2>money from bonuses signing bonus on this original his current

0:25:52.720 --> 0:25:57.000
<v Speaker 2>contract that's costing the Colts twenty seven million in dead money.

0:25:58.080 --> 0:26:00.280
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, so he's definitely just looking to win.

0:26:00.400 --> 0:26:03.000
<v Speaker 2>So I think that's probably what he's looking for. And

0:26:03.119 --> 0:26:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Jerry pointed that out. He said, I don't know that

0:26:05.600 --> 0:26:07.640
<v Speaker 2>money is going to be the big factor.

0:26:08.160 --> 0:26:12.600
<v Speaker 5>Wells, he's in a no lose situation. Yeah, the two

0:26:12.640 --> 0:26:15.080
<v Speaker 5>teams that he's looking at, it's just a matter which

0:26:15.119 --> 0:26:18.080
<v Speaker 5>one he thinks he is going to go the furthest.

0:26:17.400 --> 0:26:19.600
<v Speaker 2>So yesterday and I was going to bring this one

0:26:19.680 --> 0:26:22.480
<v Speaker 2>up it's kind of a somewhat of a funny story.

0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:28.399
<v Speaker 2>It was about the game on Thanksgiving and before the game,

0:26:29.800 --> 0:26:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Al Harris, the cornerbacks coach, and Doron Bland. We're talking

0:26:35.320 --> 0:26:39.840
<v Speaker 2>and Bland told Harris, he goes, hey, if I pick

0:26:39.920 --> 0:26:43.520
<v Speaker 2>one off and go to the end zone, He goes,

0:26:43.640 --> 0:26:46.320
<v Speaker 2>will you jump in the red kettle with me? Right?

0:26:46.960 --> 0:26:51.120
<v Speaker 2>And Al goes Jerry's telling the story, he goes, well,

0:26:51.280 --> 0:26:54.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, I'll check on that, right ed he said,

0:26:54.760 --> 0:26:59.840
<v Speaker 2>so before the game, Al Harris goes up to Jerry

0:26:59.840 --> 0:27:03.240
<v Speaker 2>and he was talking with Mike McCarthy about the basically

0:27:03.359 --> 0:27:07.399
<v Speaker 2>the same thing, right, And he told him what Bland said,

0:27:08.240 --> 0:27:12.800
<v Speaker 2>and Jerry said, my response was if if if he

0:27:12.920 --> 0:27:16.280
<v Speaker 2>picks one off and goes for a touchdown and sets

0:27:16.320 --> 0:27:20.680
<v Speaker 2>the NFL record. He goes, I want you to run

0:27:20.760 --> 0:27:23.960
<v Speaker 2>down the field and put him in the rad kettle,

0:27:24.280 --> 0:27:26.600
<v Speaker 2>and if you can fit, you get in there too.

0:27:28.200 --> 0:27:30.720
<v Speaker 2>And if you go back and look at the tape.

0:27:30.840 --> 0:27:34.800
<v Speaker 2>As he was running down sixty three yards, Al Harris

0:27:34.880 --> 0:27:40.040
<v Speaker 2>was running down the sideline with him. Now he is

0:27:40.119 --> 0:27:43.400
<v Speaker 2>he was sprinting right now. He stopped. He didn't go

0:27:43.760 --> 0:27:46.520
<v Speaker 2>to the red kettle because his teammates threw him in there.

0:27:46.680 --> 0:27:49.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he probably was connected to something.

0:27:48.800 --> 0:27:54.200
<v Speaker 2>Because you know it's wireless. Yeah, but yeah, I thought

0:27:54.240 --> 0:27:57.159
<v Speaker 2>that was pretty funny when Jerry Jerry goes, yeah, you

0:27:57.160 --> 0:27:58.680
<v Speaker 2>go put him in and you jump.

0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:01.240
<v Speaker 3>Into isn't can talk about that stuff?

0:28:01.280 --> 0:28:01.440
<v Speaker 10>Now?

0:28:01.520 --> 0:28:05.440
<v Speaker 5>Could you imagine me going up or Jeanie Stalin's going

0:28:05.520 --> 0:28:07.840
<v Speaker 5>up to Tom Landry, Yeah and say, hey, if everything

0:28:07.920 --> 0:28:10.119
<v Speaker 5>happens to score, because he's never scored, can I go,

0:28:10.680 --> 0:28:12.200
<v Speaker 5>you know, run to the end zone with him?

0:28:12.240 --> 0:28:13.640
<v Speaker 3>But did you could you imagine what.

0:28:13.640 --> 0:28:14.399
<v Speaker 5>Tom was saying?

0:28:15.440 --> 0:28:18.760
<v Speaker 3>Can we can we please concentrate on football? You know

0:28:18.880 --> 0:28:21.240
<v Speaker 3>we're up here celebrating before we even play the game.

0:28:21.359 --> 0:28:25.280
<v Speaker 2>And plus you guys were tethered right to the headset

0:28:25.359 --> 0:28:26.320
<v Speaker 2>had a wire on it.

0:28:26.400 --> 0:28:28.560
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but as players, you know, we can throw it.

0:28:28.720 --> 0:28:33.080
<v Speaker 5>We can't even inquire, don't That's what I'm saying. Tom

0:28:33.119 --> 0:28:35.520
<v Speaker 5>would be so upset. He might even he might make

0:28:35.600 --> 0:28:37.760
<v Speaker 5>us practice harder just for even thinking of that.

0:28:37.800 --> 0:28:42.440
<v Speaker 2>You're distracted, right, that would have been parsals, right, You're

0:28:42.480 --> 0:28:43.840
<v Speaker 2>a distracted player.

0:28:43.960 --> 0:28:45.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, Bill would be there.

0:28:45.320 --> 0:28:48.120
<v Speaker 2>He would always say that he can be a distracted player.

0:28:48.160 --> 0:28:51.160
<v Speaker 2>And somebody in the press conference was not paying attention.

0:28:51.240 --> 0:28:54.600
<v Speaker 2>He goes, you're a distracted writer, you know, and he'd

0:28:54.760 --> 0:29:01.280
<v Speaker 2>jump all over him. So one other thing on Seattle,

0:29:02.400 --> 0:29:07.400
<v Speaker 2>not only have they lost three of the last four games,

0:29:07.840 --> 0:29:13.680
<v Speaker 2>they've only scored thirty two points in those three losses three, sixteen,

0:29:14.360 --> 0:29:18.880
<v Speaker 2>and thirteen. And the other thing I noticed, it's offense

0:29:18.960 --> 0:29:22.880
<v Speaker 2>that has been their problems in their in their six losses.

0:29:22.960 --> 0:29:25.800
<v Speaker 3>The offensive line is not good. Yeah, they're not good.

0:29:26.160 --> 0:29:28.840
<v Speaker 4>The five cowboy Jason Peters.

0:29:28.560 --> 0:29:31.120
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I was shocked.

0:29:31.240 --> 0:29:34.760
<v Speaker 7>He was here last year. Yeah, and now he's with Seattle.

0:29:35.040 --> 0:29:36.840
<v Speaker 3>I think I remember that that transaction.

0:29:37.040 --> 0:29:40.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and he started the last two games at tackle.

0:29:41.960 --> 0:29:45.840
<v Speaker 2>But in all five of their losses, they've never scored

0:29:45.880 --> 0:29:49.400
<v Speaker 2>more than sixteen points. So offense has kind of been

0:29:49.440 --> 0:29:54.760
<v Speaker 2>their downfall in the games they've lost, and so and

0:29:54.800 --> 0:29:57.600
<v Speaker 2>they haven't in those games they've lost, they haven't scored

0:29:58.480 --> 0:30:01.800
<v Speaker 2>a heck of a lot of touchdo downs. I mentioned

0:30:03.920 --> 0:30:08.120
<v Speaker 2>that they the last game against San Francisco. The one

0:30:08.200 --> 0:30:11.600
<v Speaker 2>touchdown was defensive. They scored one in the loss to

0:30:11.680 --> 0:30:16.000
<v Speaker 2>Cincinnati and one in the loss to Baltimore. They did

0:30:16.080 --> 0:30:21.960
<v Speaker 2>have two against the Rams, but there was a stat

0:30:22.560 --> 0:30:28.760
<v Speaker 2>online that said they've scored no touchdowns in twenty straight possessions,

0:30:29.360 --> 0:30:34.200
<v Speaker 2>so you normally get ten, maybe twelve in a game,

0:30:34.400 --> 0:30:38.040
<v Speaker 2>and so it's been a while since they've found the

0:30:38.120 --> 0:30:40.640
<v Speaker 2>end zone. So a lot of this is going to

0:30:40.720 --> 0:30:45.600
<v Speaker 2>depend on how well this Cowboy defense plays. And we're

0:30:45.640 --> 0:30:47.800
<v Speaker 2>going to tell you how well they're going to play

<v Speaker 9>first nacho chip with its perfect cheese to sour cream ratio,

<v Speaker 2>So is that starting this weekend?

0:33:36.800 --> 0:33:42.280
<v Speaker 7>So that's been going on actually for two weekends. Now, okay,

0:33:42.680 --> 0:33:45.160
<v Speaker 7>so this will be the third weekend. But they always

0:33:45.200 --> 0:33:50.840
<v Speaker 7>have an alumni come light the tree, and we have

0:33:51.000 --> 0:33:55.480
<v Speaker 7>the so many different groups in it. Santa's their cheerleaders

0:33:55.680 --> 0:33:58.560
<v Speaker 7>are Rhythm and Blues Team and Rowdy.

0:33:58.720 --> 0:34:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Do they light it with a match.

0:34:00.040 --> 0:34:08.640
<v Speaker 7>Sure, they actually have a crystallized a match, and they

0:34:08.760 --> 0:34:10.640
<v Speaker 7>pushed the football like.

0:34:12.320 --> 0:34:15.760
<v Speaker 2>Sort of like the promo for Tonight's or tomorrow Night's

0:34:15.760 --> 0:34:21.680
<v Speaker 2>game movie. Uh, it's the running back right from Seattle.

0:34:21.760 --> 0:34:26.200
<v Speaker 2>He pushes the Marshaun Lina's hit. There's a big lever

0:34:26.320 --> 0:34:28.680
<v Speaker 2>and he pushes it to start the game.

0:34:28.840 --> 0:34:33.200
<v Speaker 7>Right, that's funny they put him in that.

0:34:33.360 --> 0:34:39.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I was trying to be funny, she said, like

0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:43.040
<v Speaker 2>the tree. It's kind of like the Doctor Pepper commercial

0:34:43.080 --> 0:34:46.960
<v Speaker 2>when he lights up all his paraphernalia. Because they did

0:34:47.000 --> 0:34:49.319
<v Speaker 2>not do well on the first play of the game. Right,

0:34:50.239 --> 0:34:53.239
<v Speaker 2>This just in from Bill Jones. He may not be here,

0:34:53.360 --> 0:34:58.040
<v Speaker 2>but something gets out Greg Bell. I think he's a

0:34:58.160 --> 0:35:03.400
<v Speaker 2>guy that covers Seattle said. Pete Carroll says he hasn't

0:35:03.440 --> 0:35:07.399
<v Speaker 2>seen anything this week that shows that Seahawks running back

0:35:07.480 --> 0:35:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Kenneth Walker is better from his oblique injury. Says Walker

0:35:13.080 --> 0:35:19.240
<v Speaker 2>will have questions about playing at Cowboys Thursday, and then

0:35:19.800 --> 0:35:25.840
<v Speaker 2>no indication he will. Zack Charbonnett again may be the

0:35:25.920 --> 0:35:29.680
<v Speaker 2>guy they go to, so that certainly would make it

0:35:29.760 --> 0:35:35.040
<v Speaker 2>a little bit easier on the Cowboys defense if they're

0:35:35.120 --> 0:35:38.440
<v Speaker 2>leading rusher who averages four point one yards of carry

0:35:38.560 --> 0:35:43.960
<v Speaker 2>has six touchdown runs, would not be able to play.

0:35:44.120 --> 0:35:47.320
<v Speaker 2>But as I said, Gino Smith looks like he's healthy enough.

0:35:48.719 --> 0:35:54.799
<v Speaker 2>Although in these the three last four games, he's been

0:35:54.880 --> 0:35:59.920
<v Speaker 2>sacked thirteen times. In one of those games it was five.

0:36:00.239 --> 0:36:05.120
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, the protection, as whoever pointed out ever since

0:36:05.160 --> 0:36:09.960
<v Speaker 2>about their offensive line, especially if Jason Peters at fifty

0:36:10.080 --> 0:36:12.520
<v Speaker 2>years old, has to start at I think it was

0:36:12.680 --> 0:36:18.560
<v Speaker 2>right tackle. He was playing right tackle, so he's like

0:36:19.320 --> 0:36:22.239
<v Speaker 2>forty I think forty one. Now he's forty. Last year

0:36:22.280 --> 0:36:27.399
<v Speaker 2>with the Cowboys, right, Yeah, Mike McCarthy, when they asked

0:36:27.480 --> 0:36:29.440
<v Speaker 2>him about it, he had nothing but good things to

0:36:29.480 --> 0:36:34.160
<v Speaker 2>say about him. And you know what he helped last year. Right,

0:36:34.760 --> 0:36:36.759
<v Speaker 2>It's just the way he's built. It's hard to get

0:36:36.760 --> 0:36:37.319
<v Speaker 2>around her.

0:36:37.880 --> 0:36:41.480
<v Speaker 7>Speaking of former Cowboys now with Seattle, how about that

0:36:41.680 --> 0:36:46.560
<v Speaker 7>the Seahawks just signed former Cowboys cornerback Calvin Joseph, who

0:36:46.680 --> 0:36:50.680
<v Speaker 7>was traded earlier this year to the Dolphins for Noah

0:36:51.080 --> 0:36:51.759
<v Speaker 7>a Monogamy.

0:36:52.520 --> 0:36:53.840
<v Speaker 4>But he's now with Seattle.

0:36:53.920 --> 0:36:56.600
<v Speaker 2>He got released by Miami and he's been out there

0:36:56.640 --> 0:36:59.160
<v Speaker 2>for a couple of weeks and now Seattle signed him

0:36:59.160 --> 0:37:00.000
<v Speaker 2>to the practice square.

0:37:00.400 --> 0:37:02.440
<v Speaker 3>He's eventually he's got to do.

0:37:02.600 --> 0:37:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Something right, right, I mean, he was your guy, you thought.

0:37:07.400 --> 0:37:10.759
<v Speaker 5>Your guy. Well, I saw it was his athleticism that

0:37:10.840 --> 0:37:13.520
<v Speaker 5>I really enjoyed, and the few plays he made he

0:37:13.600 --> 0:37:16.839
<v Speaker 5>showed that potential, but you know, there.

0:37:16.800 --> 0:37:19.759
<v Speaker 3>Was always something else that counted that. So hey, man

0:37:20.520 --> 0:37:22.200
<v Speaker 3>happen to say, you know, that.

0:37:22.200 --> 0:37:24.640
<v Speaker 2>Was my dude for just I guess the Cowboys won

0:37:24.719 --> 0:37:28.760
<v Speaker 2>that trade, right, because even though he's not playing, he's still.

0:37:28.719 --> 0:37:31.000
<v Speaker 5>Hey, we don't have Joseph. I think they warned by

0:37:31.040 --> 0:37:32.800
<v Speaker 5>not having Joseph that all matters.

0:37:33.000 --> 0:37:35.920
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's go, let's uh, you want me to

0:37:35.960 --> 0:37:39.600
<v Speaker 2>do bills first, so Bill's always last, he's last. Okay,

0:37:40.160 --> 0:37:43.040
<v Speaker 2>you're first, I'm first, all right, and Savannah's going to

0:37:43.080 --> 0:37:46.719
<v Speaker 2>take notes here to make sure nobody's lying on Friday.

0:37:46.880 --> 0:37:49.160
<v Speaker 3>Okay, this is gonna be one of those games.

0:37:49.160 --> 0:37:52.120
<v Speaker 5>The Cowboys do it every time at home, and as always,

0:37:52.200 --> 0:37:55.560
<v Speaker 5>starts off a little bit sticky in the beginning. First quarter,

0:37:56.120 --> 0:37:58.239
<v Speaker 5>will probably be a little bit tough, but we'll end

0:37:58.320 --> 0:38:02.080
<v Speaker 5>up winning the game. I think thirty three to fourteen,

0:38:02.760 --> 0:38:05.320
<v Speaker 5>all right. I don't know how they're going to score

0:38:05.360 --> 0:38:08.600
<v Speaker 5>fourteen points. I hope It's not from a pick six

0:38:09.120 --> 0:38:11.719
<v Speaker 5>or anything like that, but could be a couple of

0:38:11.760 --> 0:38:16.120
<v Speaker 5>old by the way touchdowns. I look, and I never

0:38:15.800 --> 0:38:18.120
<v Speaker 5>i haven't gone with this guy for quite some time,

0:38:18.600 --> 0:38:21.440
<v Speaker 5>but I'm looking at Dak. I'm looking at Dak to

0:38:21.520 --> 0:38:28.560
<v Speaker 5>be specific. Two passing touchdowns and one rushing touchdown. All right,

0:38:28.800 --> 0:38:29.520
<v Speaker 5>how does that sound?

0:38:29.680 --> 0:38:34.400
<v Speaker 2>That's no arguments there, Savannah Europe.

0:38:34.560 --> 0:38:35.839
<v Speaker 4>All right, let's do it.

0:38:37.080 --> 0:38:39.520
<v Speaker 7>I'm just taking notes on ever since here in one

0:38:39.600 --> 0:38:40.440
<v Speaker 7>rushing touchdown.

0:38:41.080 --> 0:38:42.759
<v Speaker 4>You got it, all right.

0:38:44.239 --> 0:38:48.759
<v Speaker 7>I am going with Jake Ferguson for my click to

0:38:48.920 --> 0:38:49.680
<v Speaker 7>pick this week.

0:38:49.760 --> 0:38:52.200
<v Speaker 4>Sorry if I stole this from you.

0:38:52.480 --> 0:38:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Finally two weeks I think she stole my God.

0:38:57.280 --> 0:39:01.959
<v Speaker 7>Great well, Ferguson, he had targets one reception for thirty

0:39:02.000 --> 0:39:05.960
<v Speaker 7>five yards against the Commanders against the Panthers in Week eleven,

0:39:06.200 --> 0:39:09.520
<v Speaker 7>three receptions for a total of thirty two yards, but

0:39:09.840 --> 0:39:13.880
<v Speaker 7>he was on a three game touchdown streak prior to that.

0:39:14.600 --> 0:39:17.799
<v Speaker 7>So I think now, with the rotations that Dak has

0:39:17.920 --> 0:39:20.839
<v Speaker 7>going with the receivers and the tight ends right now,

0:39:20.920 --> 0:39:22.640
<v Speaker 7>I think Ferguson will have.

0:39:22.600 --> 0:39:23.879
<v Speaker 4>One touchdown this game.

0:39:23.960 --> 0:39:28.719
<v Speaker 7>And I'm going with the Cowboys twenty seven Seattle.

0:39:28.280 --> 0:39:30.719
<v Speaker 2>Twenty ooh, a close one.

0:39:30.920 --> 0:39:34.120
<v Speaker 4>Touchdown, just by a touchdown, just by a touchdown.

0:39:34.520 --> 0:39:39.080
<v Speaker 2>All right, I am next, and I will pick the

0:39:39.120 --> 0:39:44.960
<v Speaker 2>Cowboys to win. Twenty seven thirteen thirteen seems to be

0:39:45.160 --> 0:39:49.439
<v Speaker 2>the number that Seattle gets to. So we'll give him

0:39:50.000 --> 0:39:55.520
<v Speaker 2>thirteen points seven thirteen, twenty seven to thirteen, since in

0:39:55.600 --> 0:39:59.120
<v Speaker 2>their last three games they scored three, sixteen and thirteen

0:39:59.360 --> 0:40:04.399
<v Speaker 2>this past give him thirteen again, I think it'll be.

0:40:05.800 --> 0:40:08.480
<v Speaker 3>This is much closer than I thought you'd could this.

0:40:08.719 --> 0:40:12.880
<v Speaker 2>This is the what fourth game, fourth game in nineteen days?

0:40:12.960 --> 0:40:16.600
<v Speaker 2>Is that what they had? And at some point that

0:40:16.719 --> 0:40:21.120
<v Speaker 2>many games, not so much physically, but mentally I think

0:40:21.200 --> 0:40:24.040
<v Speaker 2>starts to wear on you. So I'm going to say

0:40:24.080 --> 0:40:30.000
<v Speaker 2>twenty seven thirteen and my pick to click. Thinking about

0:40:30.160 --> 0:40:35.040
<v Speaker 2>Geno Smith having been sacked thirteen times in the last

0:40:35.080 --> 0:40:38.719
<v Speaker 2>four games, I'm going to go with Sam Williams with

0:40:38.840 --> 0:40:44.680
<v Speaker 2>a multiple game, multiple sack game for Sam Williams, and

0:40:44.800 --> 0:40:48.360
<v Speaker 2>hopefully he doesn't figure out how to commit a personal

0:40:48.440 --> 0:40:52.480
<v Speaker 2>file in this game that they get mad at and

0:40:52.520 --> 0:40:55.759
<v Speaker 2>don't put him back out there on defense. Right, it's

0:40:55.800 --> 0:40:59.160
<v Speaker 2>either roughing or running into the punter. It's a face

0:40:59.360 --> 0:41:01.719
<v Speaker 2>mask laid hit on the quarterback.

0:41:01.800 --> 0:41:04.360
<v Speaker 3>He might do something as a gunner, right, You never.

0:41:04.280 --> 0:41:07.040
<v Speaker 2>Know, so that's cause a fumble matemble.

0:41:07.239 --> 0:41:07.640
<v Speaker 3>Never know.

0:41:07.880 --> 0:41:11.480
<v Speaker 2>So I'm going with Sam Williams on this one.

0:41:11.880 --> 0:41:17.120
<v Speaker 4>All right, Bill and Bill, who can't change your picks?

0:41:16.920 --> 0:41:22.080
<v Speaker 2>That's right on no more Bill, Bill.

0:41:22.000 --> 0:41:24.680
<v Speaker 3>Has got forty. Bill says forty to thirteen.

0:41:24.880 --> 0:41:31.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Cowboys forty one, Seahawks thirteen one. And he so

0:41:31.320 --> 0:41:33.680
<v Speaker 2>he wants to predict that this will be the fourth

0:41:33.760 --> 0:41:37.600
<v Speaker 2>straight home game with forty points on the board.

0:41:37.719 --> 0:41:38.640
<v Speaker 4>That would be amazing.

0:41:39.320 --> 0:41:45.400
<v Speaker 2>And his pick to click is running back Tony Pollard.

0:41:47.320 --> 0:41:52.000
<v Speaker 5>And of course he has a story behind fifty total

0:41:52.120 --> 0:41:54.520
<v Speaker 5>yards and two touchdowns.

0:41:55.400 --> 0:41:58.440
<v Speaker 3>Why is that? Well is his supporting? What is his supporting?

0:41:58.600 --> 0:42:05.719
<v Speaker 2>In Seattle's last four games, Christian McCaffrey total yards, one

0:42:05.760 --> 0:42:10.480
<v Speaker 2>hundred and thirty nine and two touchdowns. The Rams game

0:42:11.239 --> 0:42:18.319
<v Speaker 2>Royce Freeman one touchdown, seventy three yards against Washington Brian Roberson.

0:42:18.400 --> 0:42:21.640
<v Speaker 2>Now he only had thirty eight yards rushing, but he

0:42:21.719 --> 0:42:26.320
<v Speaker 2>had one hundred and nineteen yards receiving and one touchdown.

0:42:26.960 --> 0:42:31.680
<v Speaker 2>And against Baltimore, Keaton Mitchell had one hundred and thirty

0:42:31.680 --> 0:42:36.760
<v Speaker 2>eight yards rushing and one touchdown. So Bill is going

0:42:36.960 --> 0:42:43.080
<v Speaker 2>with Tony power lighting up the Seahawks' defense by the way, righty,

0:42:43.320 --> 0:42:50.080
<v Speaker 2>So we've got that, and they have given up, by

0:42:50.120 --> 0:42:54.920
<v Speaker 2>the way, seven rushing touchdowns and this was I found

0:42:54.920 --> 0:42:58.280
<v Speaker 2>this one out seven rushing touchdowns in their last four games.

0:42:58.880 --> 0:43:04.080
<v Speaker 2>So a big day for Tony Pollard that I thought

0:43:04.080 --> 0:43:11.000
<v Speaker 2>we would finish by each giving a kind of key

0:43:11.239 --> 0:43:14.960
<v Speaker 2>to a Cowboys victory, like what needs to take place

0:43:15.160 --> 0:43:18.080
<v Speaker 2>to win this game? And we'll start whatever since.

0:43:18.120 --> 0:43:21.919
<v Speaker 5>I say uh and I mentioned it earlier, is Walker kid.

0:43:22.080 --> 0:43:25.000
<v Speaker 5>If I'm going to look at anyone, well, he's may

0:43:25.040 --> 0:43:28.160
<v Speaker 5>not be made. But really, when you start looking at

0:43:28.200 --> 0:43:33.080
<v Speaker 5>their offensive line, if they're not consistent at anything, they

0:43:33.120 --> 0:43:37.120
<v Speaker 5>are consistent at run blocking. That's one thing that they

0:43:37.160 --> 0:43:42.440
<v Speaker 5>have done well. And I'm sure that coach Carroll is

0:43:42.480 --> 0:43:45.280
<v Speaker 5>going to try and run about as much as possible

0:43:45.320 --> 0:43:47.719
<v Speaker 5>to keep the crowd out of the game, number one,

0:43:47.800 --> 0:43:50.520
<v Speaker 5>and to keep our offense off the field, as y'all

0:43:50.520 --> 0:43:52.320
<v Speaker 5>spoke of earlier in the podcast.

0:43:53.080 --> 0:43:57.640
<v Speaker 3>So that would be my real key to the game.

0:43:57.719 --> 0:44:01.520
<v Speaker 5>I wouldn't necessarily worry about anything else. I don't worry

0:44:01.520 --> 0:44:04.680
<v Speaker 5>about our wide receivers not being able to catch the ball.

0:44:05.280 --> 0:44:08.120
<v Speaker 5>I think at any game that we play this year,

0:44:09.040 --> 0:44:12.080
<v Speaker 5>as long as we have as long as they can't

0:44:12.120 --> 0:44:14.759
<v Speaker 5>cover our wide receivers, I think we're going to be

0:44:14.840 --> 0:44:19.000
<v Speaker 5>running up scores because that's been our strength. Is not

0:44:19.160 --> 0:44:22.840
<v Speaker 5>just a passing game itself, but each individual receiver that

0:44:22.880 --> 0:44:26.520
<v Speaker 5>has been targeted, they have been successful at being consistent

0:44:26.560 --> 0:44:27.440
<v Speaker 5>the entire game.

0:44:28.320 --> 0:44:32.040
<v Speaker 4>All right, Okay, I have two key points.

0:44:32.480 --> 0:44:36.800
<v Speaker 7>We're winning this game for us first and foremost, get ahead.

0:44:37.800 --> 0:44:41.360
<v Speaker 7>I would like to see us keep that trend going.

0:44:41.440 --> 0:44:44.719
<v Speaker 7>We've obviously seen from many games past so far that

0:44:44.920 --> 0:44:48.400
<v Speaker 7>when we are ahead, they are playing catch up with us,

0:44:48.520 --> 0:44:50.680
<v Speaker 7>and that's when we have the advantage point. So we

0:44:50.719 --> 0:44:54.680
<v Speaker 7>get ahead early. I think that is going to put

0:44:54.719 --> 0:44:57.120
<v Speaker 7>more of a workload on them and it's going to

0:44:57.160 --> 0:44:58.400
<v Speaker 7>play more out in our favor.

0:44:59.200 --> 0:45:01.600
<v Speaker 4>And as I know that, they are going to run

0:45:01.640 --> 0:45:02.320
<v Speaker 4>the ball a lot.

0:45:02.800 --> 0:45:06.800
<v Speaker 7>Gino Smith, since winning comeback Player of the Year last season,

0:45:06.840 --> 0:45:09.799
<v Speaker 7>he struggled trusting his receivers and that was something he

0:45:09.920 --> 0:45:13.160
<v Speaker 7>mentioned in a press conference this week. So I also

0:45:13.200 --> 0:45:16.040
<v Speaker 7>anticipate him throwing the ball a little bit so our

0:45:16.200 --> 0:45:21.120
<v Speaker 7>secondary I'm looking at Jordan Lewis and Ron bland for

0:45:21.239 --> 0:45:23.760
<v Speaker 7>my guys to kind of keep things going down.

0:45:23.640 --> 0:45:27.839
<v Speaker 2>There, all right, my key originally, and I forgot i'd

0:45:27.920 --> 0:45:35.160
<v Speaker 2>done this. In six their last six games, they've given

0:45:35.320 --> 0:45:37.879
<v Speaker 2>up one hundred and twenty seven yards rushing, one hundred

0:45:37.880 --> 0:45:42.840
<v Speaker 2>and fifty five yard rushing, Baltimore two hundred and ninety

0:45:43.000 --> 0:45:47.359
<v Speaker 2>eight yards rushing, wow, and San Francisco one hundred and

0:45:47.360 --> 0:45:51.120
<v Speaker 2>sixty nine. Right, So maybe Bill did his homework on

0:45:51.320 --> 0:45:54.400
<v Speaker 2>Tony Pollock. But I was originally going to say the

0:45:54.520 --> 0:45:57.640
<v Speaker 2>key will be they got to get Gino Smith on

0:45:57.680 --> 0:46:01.479
<v Speaker 2>the ground. And that's why I picked Sam Williams since

0:46:01.520 --> 0:46:06.839
<v Speaker 2>I can't pick Parsons right. And in the last four

0:46:06.920 --> 0:46:11.959
<v Speaker 2>games he has been sacked four times by Baltimore, once

0:46:12.040 --> 0:46:16.440
<v Speaker 2>by Washington, twice by the Rams, and six times by

0:46:16.520 --> 0:46:20.560
<v Speaker 2>San Francisco. So I think the key will be to

0:46:20.680 --> 0:46:25.040
<v Speaker 2>cut the head off the snake with sacking Geno Smith.

0:46:25.120 --> 0:46:26.200
<v Speaker 2>That's got to take place.

0:46:26.880 --> 0:46:30.319
<v Speaker 4>That should be the title of the podcast, cut.

0:46:30.280 --> 0:46:37.040
<v Speaker 3>The head off, cut his hand off.

0:46:37.120 --> 0:46:40.359
<v Speaker 2>No, I didn't say he was the snake. Hell no, No,

0:46:41.440 --> 0:46:44.640
<v Speaker 2>that's the threat. Make sure they don't beat you throwing

0:46:44.760 --> 0:46:47.680
<v Speaker 2>the football, and make sure you can stop the run.

0:46:47.960 --> 0:46:52.080
<v Speaker 2>And we need to stop mixshots now and we will

0:46:52.120 --> 0:46:55.799
<v Speaker 2>be back and I'm thinking in force on Friday here

0:46:56.000 --> 0:47:01.880
<v Speaker 2>on dallascowboys dot Com. Everybody have a good Thursday night game.

0:47:02.080 --> 0:47:04.160
<v Speaker 2>Say you go Cowboys.

0:47:04.880 --> 0:47:07.880
<v Speaker 1>This has been a production of dallascowboys dot Com and

0:47:08.040 --> 0:47:10.960
<v Speaker 1>the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
