Welcome to another edition of The Break, 0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:38.240 Live from the s WBC Mortgage studios at the Star. 0:00:38.320 --> 0:00:44.120 How's everybody doing this morning? Oh? Hey, that probably wasn't. 0:00:44.159 --> 0:00:49.680 Not a good idea? No, probably not, probably not great? Good? Yeah, yeah, 0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:52.800 ready for some everybody's doing pretty good here. Talking about 0:00:52.800 --> 0:00:57.200 the Eagles, Yeah, you're ready? What have they done? Who 0:00:57.240 --> 0:01:02.000 are they? Who are you? Oh? Still waiting on them 0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:03.720 to lose tune a row. It's hard to lose tun 0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:07.080 a row one. You did mention that? What about week 0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:11.040 three or four? It always happens. Yeah, yeah, awesome. Saints 0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:14.160 in two thousand and nine lost a couple in a row. Three, 0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:16.640 three to be exact, three to be exactly a fan 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:20.360 back then, Oh my god. Yeah, hardcore. Yeah he's still 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:22.480 he's kind of like, oh he is, yeah, but trying 0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:24.880 to figure out what to do about this seventh game 0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:28.840 winning streak. I'm not lying to you. I don't know 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.360 anything about it other than that Alvin Kamara is having 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:33.680 a good season. And when you liked it anyway from 0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:36.960 the draft show, right, I did that. I grew up 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:39.720 a Saints fan, you know, I like the Saints. I 0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:42.080 have no time to watch or care about them, Like, 0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:44.640 I just don't you pull out your fandom Mint Lsu 0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:46.960 with this. Yeah, I mean the NFL's used to be 0:01:47.000 --> 0:01:49.920 a big Kansas Jayhawk basketball. I don't have time for 0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:52.560 that either. I literally I texted Kelsey Charles last night 0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:56.400 and I was like, we hung out today that like 0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:59.560 Ku had this huge game again Kentucky last night. Didn't 0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:01.720 even loss my mind until I turned on the TV 0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:04.920 while I was watching Eagles tape and I was like ah, 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:07.880 and didn't have to yance to finish watching. I went 0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:10.400 to bed when there was still like three minutes left, like, wow, 0:02:10.560 --> 0:02:12.680 I don't care. You just Jay Cutler the whole game. 0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:14.919 I'll have time for anything else right now. Man. I 0:02:15.000 --> 0:02:18.040 got I got like somebody was asking me last night, 0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:20.160 and they were like, well, if we need a linebacker 0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:21.799 in the draft, who were some ones that you like? 0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:23.880 I was like, I don't know. Man like LS she 0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:26.040 was the only team that I like watch. I'll get 0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:28.720 into all that when the season's over. I don't. Maybe 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:30.760 that's the point maybe a little early. Oh well, yeah, 0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:33.040 I mean maybe before the season you get You get 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:36.480 my point though, like like, I'm not the busiest person 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:39.040 in the world, but I just got enough stuff occupying 0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:41.639 my time that I don't I'm not gonna go watch 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:45.359 Saints highlights in my in my spare time, but that way, Amber, 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:48.440 how's it going this morning? Oh well, very well, thanks 0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:55.760 for asking, Derek. Good good for a life, happy day. 0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:59.880 I just heard life right, just life, a happy life. 0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:04.480 Got it perfectly. I want it, I say, sarcastic in 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:10.560 Spanish folder slap that I was gonna say, is it really? 0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:13.000 I was just gonna say sarcastic, and I was like, 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:16.919 don't be a smart right, don't be a smart ass 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:22.359 to co that's probably how you say in Spanish. See, 0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:26.239 got it all right, Let's move on, let's talk to Philadelphia. 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:29.280 This is what you wanted. You wanted this stuff now tomorrow. 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:31.880 That's gonna be like, welcome to up forty four the 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:35.000 Eagles defense. There is no good way to open this show. 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:37.160 Let's just put it that way. There isn't Let's just 0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:39.560 you just jump right in and just start talking football. Right, 0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:42.440 That's fine. Let's that's what the fans want. I guarantee you. 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:45.160 All right, let's do that. Then let's go directly to football. 0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:48.240 Let's talk about this Philadelphia Eagles offense. Dave, you have 0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:52.040 a scouting report for us, go football? Yeah, um, this 0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:54.040 is a lot like Chiefs Week. I'll pull out the 0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:56.360 same stat sheet that I did during Chiefs Week and 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:59.600 just go one one. They're They're good. They're good. They're good. 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:04.080 Yeah they are. But honestly, you know what, they remind 0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:06.520 me a lot of the Cowboys, which maybe that shouldn't 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:09.800 surprise us. Maybe it should. I don't know. This is 0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:12.640 the number four total offense in the NFL three hundred 0:04:12.640 --> 0:04:15.600 and seventy seven yards per game, only fourteenth in passing 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:18.760 at two forty number four and rushing at one thirty 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:22.600 seven sounds familiar, right, thirty one point four points per game. 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:24.640 They're number two in the league in scoring, only behind 0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:27.600 the Rams, which let's stop and marvel at that for 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:29.800 a second. The Rams are leading the league in scoring, 0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:34.280 but no, this really does remind me a lot of 0:04:34.320 --> 0:04:38.720 the Cowboys. Carson Wentz is obviously, it's it's really more 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:41.560 it's more centered around Carson Wentz than the Cowboys are 0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:44.080 centered around Dak Prescott. I think that's fair to say. 0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:47.800 He's completing sixty one percent of his passes for two 0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:49.880 hundred and fifty one yards a game. He has thrown 0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:55.000 twenty three touchdowns and just five interceptions, which, okay, again, 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:57.360 they remind me a lot of the Cowboys, but it's 0:04:57.400 --> 0:04:59.840 more about the quarterback. They run the ball really well, 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:03.200 but they do it with a litany of guys. La 0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:06.280 Garrett Blunt has five hundred and four yards. Wins is 0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:08.800 actually their number two rusher with two hundred and eleven. 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:12.320 I think with the forty yards that he had against Atlanta, 0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:15.680 Dak maybe passed him or is awfully close. But they're 0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:20.320 very even. Chris Clement has one eighty two, Wendell Smallwood 0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:22.600 has one sixty eight, and then they just added Jagie 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:24.920 who had seventy seven in his first game as an 0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:28.760 Eagle before the bye. So they're really more committee base. 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:30.960 They don't have that one running back that does everything 0:05:31.000 --> 0:05:33.360 the way Ezekiel Elliott does. Do you suspect that that 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:36.320 will change maybe starting with this week, now that they've 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:39.279 got a Gigi, he's a quality running back. They didn't 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:42.960 really have a starting caliber, in my opinion, starting caliber 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:45.920 every down back before that. A Gie is that kind 0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:47.840 of guy, right, take me back to when he was 0:05:47.880 --> 0:05:49.840 coming out of college. Was he projected to be that 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:52.760 kind of guy. He's definitely is capable of handling that 0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.200 kind of workload, like he was that guy for Boise State. 0:05:55.279 --> 0:05:58.400 I think he was that guy in Miami and he's 0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:01.240 capable of being that thirty carries two hundred yards guy. 0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:04.080 The problem is the reason he fell as far as 0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:05.920 he did, had nothing to do with talent. It was 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.360 about injuries. He's got a knee condition that scared a 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:11.200 lot of teams, including the Cowboys away, and I wonder 0:06:11.240 --> 0:06:13.680 if the Eagles might go easy on him in the 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:16.200 interest of keeping him fresh. So you just work him 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:18.000 into the mix more, right, And I mean, you have 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:21.479 Lea Garrett Blunt who's not He's not that well rounded. 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:23.920 You know, he's not a home run threat by any stretch. 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:25.960 But I mean, he's got five hundred yards, like he's 0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:28.520 doing the job for them. He's doing just fine. I 0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:31.400 wonder if maybe a JII will be like a change 0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:33.360 of pace, Like obviously you're gonna give him his touches, 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:35.960 but he only had eight carries in his first game, 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.240 which I know he just got there, but it was 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:41.000 within that week, right, you know That's what I'm saying. 0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:46.000 I'd still be surprised if they just suddenly just lean 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:48.200 on him exclusively, not when they have all these other 0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:50.560 talented guys, like they like Chris Clement a lot. He 0:06:51.200 --> 0:06:54.280 works in the passing game really well. So I think 0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:57.080 it'll still be committee. You just have one more dangerous 0:06:57.120 --> 0:07:02.240 option in that committee. But anyway, but so you know, 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.840 there isn't this star running back that it all centers around. 0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.760 It all kind of centers around wins. But for a 0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:10.520 lot of the same reasons that Dak Prescott works here, 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:12.960 they run a lot of shotgun stuff. They run a 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:16.440 lot of I don't want to say zone read because 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:18.160 he doesn't keep the ball that often, but it's that 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:20.880 you know, read and react to give or pull the 0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:22.760 ball as the quarterback run a lot of plays out 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:26.200 of the shotgun. And if you remember back from the 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:29.920 Denver game, which was their last game, you maybe saw 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:32.480 a quote where Chris Harris said, you know, they run 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:35.240 a college offense. They just run it really well. And 0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:38.800 I couldn't I take that as a compliment. It's like 0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:41.240 they run this offense really efficiently. A lot of people 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:43.120 took it as like a dig, like, oh, well, it's 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:45.560 a gimmick. I don't really think of it as a gimmick. 0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:49.480 They're just running concepts that help their quarterback a lot 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:52.160 like and they're doing it really well. So like you 0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:54.360 see a lot of the zone read type stuff. You 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:58.400 see a lot of like it, like RPO's run pass 0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:00.480 options where you know Dak will run this stuff in 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:02.640 the red zone where you look you see you know, 0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:04.840 look the end either give to the running back. If 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:06.080 you don't give it to the running back, you have 0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:08.400 one read and it's it's there for you. You know, 0:08:08.520 --> 0:08:10.320 that type of stuff where you're just making it easy 0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:12.760 on him. I don't he's capable of doing it, but 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:15.280 I don't see him doing a lot of like reading 0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:17.440 both sides of the field. He doesn't usually need to, 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:20.640 like he's usually got one read that's there if he 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:23.040 doesn't give it to the running back, and you know, 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:25.280 and he's capable of progressing if he needs to, but 0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:28.280 I would argue that he doesn't usually need to. Another 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.480 thing that they like to do is use his athleticism 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:33.120 against the defense. They move the pocket a lot, like 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:35.360 I mean, where he's running as soon as he's got 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:37.440 the ball left or right and he's got to read. 0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:42.200 He did that against Denver where he takes it, fakes 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:45.160 the toss and he's already on the run. Chris Harris 0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:48.840 falls for it and Alshan Jeffrey's a yard behind him 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.360 by the time he lets go of it. So he's 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:54.480 six five and no offense to Carson Wentz. But like 0:08:54.600 --> 0:08:58.559 I think he's just a dorky looking dude. But he's like, 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:01.640 don't let him fool you. Like he's very athletic, Like 0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:03.560 he's an athletic quarterback. Like I said, he's got two 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:06.319 hundred rushing yards and big and strong. Different I mean, like, 0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:08.320 I don't know if there's a quarterback in the league 0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:12.240 outside of Cam Newton who is his big maybe Ben 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:14.679 Roethlisberger who's this big and hard to take down as 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:18.120 Carson Wentzes. But like, I mean, he's not Cam Newton, 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:22.719 nobody is. But he moves more like Cam than Roethlisberger. Like, 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:26.040 he's not this lumbering guy like he's He's an athlete, 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:28.800 but a big athlete, I guess is the point, very 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:32.200 hard to take down more than Cam too. His throwing 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.439 is a lot closer to Roethlisberger than Cam or any other. 0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:37.400 What he's saying, he's a much more accurate past and 0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:39.839 much better arm. Yeah, he's got a big arm. Yeah, 0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:44.120 but he's not. I mean that's Cam's weakness is that 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:47.000 he is not that accurate all the time. But I'm 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:49.280 just this guy could run sort of like him, but 0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:53.079 throws a lot better than him. That's scary, I would argue, 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:55.400 And you know he's looking at me like that. I 0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:56.719 don't know if I agree with all that, but we'll 0:09:56.760 --> 0:09:59.360 get to that on Cam Panthers Week if we ever 0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.600 have it. Yeah, Panthers Week next year or playoffs. Okay, 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:06.880 he's got a big arm and they are definitely capable 0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:08.599 of big plays. I don't know, if you watch the 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:10.760 Panthers game they played on Thursday night where he just 0:10:11.600 --> 0:10:14.080 cock back, I mean he hit Mack Hollins and stride 0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:17.360 for like sixty eight yards is really impressive throw just 0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:20.760 in terms of his arm strength. But like, I don't 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:23.600 think of him as like this big playoffense a lot 0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:25.880 like I say about the Cowboys, Like I don't necessarily 0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:29.760 think they're always looking for that. Like you have Alshon, 0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:32.920 Jeffrey and Nelson Aglo are averaging like thirteen fourteen yards 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.839 per catch, but it's a lot of comeback routes. It's 0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:38.040 a lot of tight end action. Zach Ertz as their 0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:41.520 leading receiver. You see him and Brent Selik either moving 0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:43.559 across the field or out in the flat. A lot 0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:47.319 like the big play threat is there, but that's not 0:10:47.400 --> 0:10:49.960 their bread and butter. Like it's really a lot more 0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:53.720 like I said, multiple options, I would are. I would 0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:56.480 guess like the vast majority of the stuff they run 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:58.280 has a run pass option in it. It's like a 0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:01.560 lot of misdirection, a lot of catch the defense off guard, 0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:04.160 and not necessarily just bombing away. One of the most 0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:06.920 interesting things though about that particularly is their top four 0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:10.480 receivers right now are all averaging above twelve yards per catch. Yeah, 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:14.520 you guys Arts averaging twelve point three. Jeffrey's averaging fourteen 0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:18.760 point seven yards. Aglare's averaging fourteen point eight yards and 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:21.679 Tory Smith's averaging fourteen point seven yards. And right now 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:24.400 they're second in the league in average yards per reception 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:27.280 at thirteen. So they don't have it may not be 0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:30.000 center around big plays, right, they certainly are getting chunk 0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:33.079 plays regularly. And this offense I would throw in there. 0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:35.559 Mac Hollands, the guy I just mentioned. He's a rookie 0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:38.240 out of North Carolina. He's Ryan Switzer's teammate. I think 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:40.880 he has less than twenty catches on the year, Like 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:43.760 he's not he's not even close to their top option. 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:47.000 But he's averaging nineteen yards per catch. Lay. He scares 0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:49.600 me because I bet you they'll try to get him 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:51.640 behind this secondary at some point in the game. The 0:11:51.760 --> 0:11:54.079 Cowboys really liked him coming out of the draft. He 0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:57.360 was a special team yeah speak well, yeah, he speak out. 0:11:57.440 --> 0:11:59.800 He's really a special teams guy coming out of college. 0:11:59.840 --> 0:12:01.719 He's gonna help on special teams and help some in 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:04.640 the receiving game. And it's just funny how they they 0:12:04.679 --> 0:12:07.480 went for Switzer. They're all, you know, gung ho on that, 0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:11.240 and this guy, would you say, doesn't have twenty catches. 0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:15.920 I think it's like sixteen. Oh well, that's fourteen more 0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:18.719 than Switzer. I don't know how many Switzer has one 0:12:18.840 --> 0:12:21.319 or two? Not many? Not many? I mean, and he 0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:23.440 hasn't contributed as much as like Switzer was the guy 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.679 that was supposed to contribute, and Hollands they didn't know 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:28.960 if it'd have a good role for him. Amazing how 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:35.000 that works sometimes. Um, a couple of notes. Uh, I 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:37.920 don't want to pronounce this name, but big big v 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:46.160 uhatai vitai Uh can you guess that he is of 0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:51.800 Pacific Island descent? Um? Do see somebody that are? They 0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:56.000 call him Big V. So let's oh my god, press 0:12:56.040 --> 0:13:00.440 box since he's gonna get five iterations of his oh yeah, 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:03.360 our press box. Guys die like he's gonna die. Well, 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.440 he's playing left tackle, so how many topfull? You don't 0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:06.840 have to say? Many times you have to say is yeah? 0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:08.400 You don't have to ever unless he gets hurt, he's 0:13:08.440 --> 0:13:10.720 your he's your left tackle in place of Jason Peters 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:13.400 who blew out his knee. And they will ever say that. Um, 0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:16.760 but there, I mean, he's any good. How does he play? 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:19.440 He's only played I think he's played two games since 0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:22.880 since Peters was hurt, and I mean, which is you know, 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:26.520 people are in my mentions whining about it, like, obviously 0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:29.040 you'd prefer to have Jason Peters, but he hasn't had 0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:31.600 a game like Chaz greenhad against the Falcons, like he's 0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:34.280 he's gotten the job done to this point. I think 0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:36.640 it's probably something you can still try to take advantage of. 0:13:37.520 --> 0:13:40.959 Especially this doesn't seem like something Rod Marinelli would do, 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:43.319 but Lane Johnson's a pretty damn good right tackle. I 0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:45.520 wonder if they try to put DeMarcus Lawrence on the 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:48.640 left side or on his right side on the left 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:51.240 tackle to try to take advantage of that doesn't seem 0:13:51.320 --> 0:13:54.760 like something Rod would do, but I would consider it um. 0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:58.600 And then they got Brandon Brooks from Houston over the offseason, 0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:01.160 and Jason Kelsey's one of the better centers in the league. 0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:04.319 So they're they're offense pretty solid, and they seem to 0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:06.920 be handling not having Peters fairly well. I saw that 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:09.600 they just I thought, I just saw that a few 0:14:09.640 --> 0:14:12.400 minutes ago that they signed a tackle. They did. They 0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:16.199 signed Will Beatie Yeah, uh, he of New York Giant 0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:20.120 Face Yeah, which I feel like he's been retired for 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:22.840 more than No, he had. He definitely was retired, but like, 0:14:23.080 --> 0:14:24.760 it's not like he retired this year. Like I think 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:26.240 he's been out of football for at least a year, 0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:29.280 or he played with jimbo Elliott, I mean at the Jets. 0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:32.400 He was on those Super Bowl teams, I know, at 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:35.120 least one of them. Um, but I don't I think 0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:37.000 that's a depth thing. I don't think they're looking at 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:39.440 him to be in the starting lineup, at least not 0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:44.240 right away. So it's interesting, all right, It's a it's 0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:46.640 like did I read Yeah, they're I mean fourth in 0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:49.960 total offense, fourth in rushing offense. That's scary when you 0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:51.720 think that Sean Lee's probably not going to play in 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:54.080 this game. Yep, that's the most scary part of it. Actually, 0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:55.320 I was going to ask you that question. If you 0:14:55.400 --> 0:14:58.000 look at this offense, what's the most dangerous part of 0:14:58.040 --> 0:15:00.640 the offense? Um, obviously talk about the rushing game, But 0:15:00.680 --> 0:15:02.680 what's the most dangerous thing that the Cowboys will really 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.840 have to look out for with this offense? Well, I'm 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:09.320 like wins is, he's playing at an MVP level. I 0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:11.520 know Cowboys fans don't want to hear that, but he's 0:15:11.600 --> 0:15:15.760 really having a great season. But if Sean Lee's not 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:20.920 out there, La Garrett Blunt and Jagie, that scares me 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:24.800 way more than whatever wins might do. We've seen the 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:27.840 running back c J. Anderson from the Broncos, We've seen 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:31.120 Aaron Jones from the Packers, and Todd Gurley had a 0:15:31.240 --> 0:15:33.560 monster game. I mean, it's one thing to have a 0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:35.680 good game, but he had a monster game. Running Backs 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:38.600 have not been killing them in this last month, but 0:15:38.960 --> 0:15:41.480 Lee was out there. And from the time Lee left 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:44.560 the Falcons game, It's not like Tevin Coleman took over 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:46.520 the game, but he had some big runs. But they 0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:48.480 got much better at running the ball when he was 0:15:48.560 --> 0:15:52.920 out And this these guys are better than Tevin Coleman. Right, 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:54.800 So all right, looks like our first break. When we 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:56.960 come back, Amber and Nick are going to chime in 0:15:57.040 --> 0:15:58.800 and tell us what they think is the one thing 0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:01.560 that stands out about this offense that they think the 0:16:01.600 --> 0:16:03.440 Cowboys will have to be concerned with. Will do it 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:05.200 when we come right back. This is Dallas Cowboys dot 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:06.840 Com Radio.

It's the second segment of 0:18:06.080 --> 0:18:08.520 the show Life from the SWBC Mortgage Studios. We're talking 0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:11.680 about the Philadelphia Eagles, and today we're focusing in on 0:18:11.840 --> 0:18:15.960 the Philadelphia Eagle offense. David given us us the scouting 0:18:16.000 --> 0:18:18.640 report on them. Now will turn to Amber and Nick. 0:18:18.720 --> 0:18:21.879 Amber tell us first, what is your one thing that 0:18:21.960 --> 0:18:26.600 you notice about this offense that stands out to you most? Well, 0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:30.040 there are many things, but one that I would focus 0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:34.240 on would be with their red zone scoring. Their ranked 0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:39.600 number one. Cowboys defense are ranked number twenty four, So 0:18:40.000 --> 0:18:43.840 that's a pretty bad matchup right there. And after watching 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:46.680 what we saw last weekend, we saw how the Cowboys 0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:50.960 struggle scoring points. Now with Sean Lena being able to play, 0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:55.480 which is what is expected, the Cowboys defense is gonna 0:18:55.600 --> 0:18:58.600 really really need to step up and do whatever they 0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:03.000 can to stop them from scoring some points because if 0:19:03.040 --> 0:19:05.440 this guy, if I mean, the Cowboys won't win this 0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:09.040 game if they score seven points. So that would be 0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:12.680 my biggest concern there. Yeah, I was kind of I'm 0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:14.520 kind of surprised that they're twenty fourth. I thought the 0:19:14.600 --> 0:19:16.960 defense had done better than that in the red zone. 0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:20.679 But guess not, you're thinking of blast I am, I am. 0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:22.640 I'm giving them the benefit of doubt on some things 0:19:22.680 --> 0:19:25.960 that probably shouldn't be These stats though, too, so many 0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:29.320 stats are really specific. I mean that there's like average 0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:31.480 field position on the road, I mean something like that. 0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:34.280 So that could be I don't know, that could be 0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:38.280 a stat of how many points they're scoring in the 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:41.280 red zone, and not necessarily a touchdown percentage, because I 0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:43.440 think when you when you think about three and out 0:19:43.720 --> 0:19:45.399 and down the red zone, they kick a field goal, 0:19:45.440 --> 0:19:48.800 you think of that as a win. But sometimes that 0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:51.000 could be a stat of of how many what's the 0:19:51.119 --> 0:19:53.840 number for it and us the ranking, what's the actual number? 0:19:54.680 --> 0:19:59.240 Fifty eight point six point six. I think that may 0:19:59.280 --> 0:20:01.560 be the number of time that's that's gotta be a touchdown. 0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:04.720 Gotta be touchdowns, yeah, okay, red zone scoring, so I 0:20:04.800 --> 0:20:08.560 mean I'm assuming it is. Yeah, it's gotta be a touchdown. Yeah, 0:20:09.080 --> 0:20:11.320 we haven't seen that many turnovers in missfield goals to 0:20:11.400 --> 0:20:14.879
