8
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, Season eighteen, episode number fifty. Welcome to

9
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: another edition of the Break Lifts, WBC Morgan Studios. At

10
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 1: the start, we are presented our middle like the only

11
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: beer of the Dallas Cowboys. And today we talked about

12
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia defense versus the Cowboys offense. We got lots

13
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: of questions. There are lots of things to discuss there.

14
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: We might even get some questions that were left over

15
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: from Tuesday about the offense. But let's start first with

16
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: getting some some updates on some injuries. Nick, what do

17
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: we hear this morning? I guess on Dak and where

18
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: he is from his practicesterday. I think it went well

19
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: as what McCarthy said, but I mean Dak said it

20
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 1: yesterday in the locker room as well that you know

21
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: they were it was. It was a good throwing session.

22
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,119
Speaker 1: And you know, he's playing with the media. I mean,

23
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: he knows when the media is out there for fifteen minutes,

24
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: he's throwing the ball left handed and doing all that

25
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. But he's doing things when they leave,

26
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: he's he's ramping it up a little bit more. And

27
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 1: he said that they were able to cut it loose

28
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: a little bit, put some zip on the ball. He says,

29
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna throw if I don't have it. You know,

30
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: if I don't have the zip, I'm not gonna throw it.

31
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: So it sounds like it's ramping up that way. McCarthy said,

32
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: it went well, he'll do some more of that. Again.

33
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: They're not going to rule him out. I don't think

34
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: unless I heard something different, I don't think they're gonna

35
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: rule them out until they have to. But he you know,

36
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: he's not playing this week. Yeah, he threw everything but

37
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: the nine, which is the vertical route, and then the post,

38
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: so everything else basically, Yeah, they took the deep shots

39
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 1: out of the game and so they threw underneath intermediate

40
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: stuff like that is how it all it all worked out.

41
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: I was just laughing because it's like you can you

42
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 1: can argue they took that out a long time ago,

43
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: like that's not really, that's not but you know what,

44
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: is that true? Though? Nick? You said that yesterday, and

45
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: I think about a number of times I've seen him

46
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: connect downfield, particularly Michael Gallop, I don't. I don't think

47
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: it's fair say it's not a part of his game.

48
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: It's a part of his game. You ask me what

49
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: what Cooper Rush does better than than Dak I think

50
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: it would be deep ball. I think I think that, yes,

51
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: more than we saw it with that, I don't think

52
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: so okay. I don't think so either. I don't think

53
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: so okay, not as often because I just think that

54
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,679
Speaker 1: the way they've been playing with Cooper Rush, it's a

55
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: little bit more conservative in that aspect where they're not

56
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: giving him those many opportunities, but that it's a conservative throw. Honestly,

57
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 1: it'd be told it's a conservative throw for the way

58
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush throws it. I think he throws the ball

59
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: more down the field even when he plays in the

60
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: preseason games, because that's what we have to go off of.

61
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: I think he takes I think he feels more comfortable

62
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: throwing it express it to the right, his right side.

63
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 1: I think he feels comfortable doing that more than some

64
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 1: of the other guys, I think than Dak does. Yeah,

65
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: I think it's it's fair to maybe say that's a

66
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: comfortable throw for him. I don't know that we've seen

67
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: evidence that he connects on that anymore frequently than Dak does.

68
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 1: That's my point. So if you look at the results,

69
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: I don't think that this is necessarily thing where you

70
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: say Cooper Rush is a better deep ball thrower from

71
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: the standpoint of results than Dak. Well. The thing is, though,

72
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: with Cooper Rush, they will get max protection throw that

73
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: ball down the field. So that's the thing I think,

74
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: if you want to do it, They've done it occasionally

75
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: with Dak, but not to the point with Cooper Rush.

76
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,839
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush has done it far more. And I think

77
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: all of it has to do with Michael Gallup the

78
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: game the other day, they got in a situation where

79
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: they were getting past interference called too. I think I

80
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: think you know, that's these coaches have got to figure out,

81
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: and a lot of them do when you have games

82
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: where officials are going to call things certain ways. The

83
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: game last year it was a great example of like,

84
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: you know, you know, if I'm just throwing the deep

85
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: ball because the fistals are going to call pass interference

86
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: every time. And you got a situation the other day

87
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: where where where Gallup was able to get down the

88
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: field and it was either going to be pass interference

89
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: on the commander's corner or it was going to be

90
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 1: a catch. So I think that, to me, there needs

91
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: to be that plan in the game. It's like, hey,

92
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 1: let's take a deep shot here, let's see what you know.

93
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: I think I think Dat needs more of that, you know,

94
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: I think that to me that that's I see it

95
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: as part of his game, but I think it's something

96
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: that they could probably take a little bit better advantage of.

97
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: You know, if you go, if you're one of those

98
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 1: numbers nerds. I think he was fifth in the league

99
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: last year in deep ball throws, you know, So to me,

100
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 1: take some shots, go for it, you know, if you

101
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: want to do that, But they they need to do

102
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: it more. That's that's I you know, I like what

103
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: Nick saying about, you know, about the situation about how

104
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 1: he throws it, but take more shots at it, you know,

105
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: don't just you know, think everything underneath and intermediate with him.

106
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: I am dying to know after this game, win or lose,

107
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: how the whole narrative starts changing on whether how soon

108
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: you got Dick back in or how a little bit

109
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: more longer it takes to heal that win or lose though,

110
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not win or lose. You don't think, no, no,

111
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: there's two completely different narratives based off win or lose.

112
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, yeah, yeah, I just want to see

113
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 1: it what happens. Yeah, yeah, because did you hear did

114
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: you hear it? Troy? He throws wood right on the

115
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: fire this morning? Like cowboys going win in Philly. I

116
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 1: think you gotta start talking about whether you really want

117
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: to bring Deak. But it's just this thing has taken

118
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: on a whole life of its own in my opinion

119
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: that I just don't I don't see, I don't get it.

120
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, you know that's you know, Jerry

121
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: Jones came out several weeks ago and says he wants

122
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 1: a quarterback controversy. So you go out win Philadelphia, you

123
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: got your quarterback controversy. I know, I know one thing

124
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: doing radio every day, I want five three that that

125
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: there are people that absolutely want to see this thing

126
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 1: play out with Cooper Rush. And there's the people on

127
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: the Dack end of it. They're terrified that he's gonna

128
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: win this game. You know that there it's that divided

129
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 1: on these on these folks, and you know it's you know,

130
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 1: they've made the decision as a front office, and you know,

131
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: as critical as I've been at the front office, you know,

132
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: they have done a lot of things the right way.

133
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 1: And you know, if by if they bring Dak Prescott back,

134
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: I'm I'm not betting against him now because everything they

135
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,919
Speaker 1: seem to do has come to up asis for them.

136
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's worked out all Hey, don't worry

137
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: about the receivers, don't worry about the offensive line, don't

138
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 1: worry about this, don't worry about that. You know, all

139
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 1: those questions that we had, you know, it seems like

140
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 1: that their decisions are actually been the right decisions. You know,

141
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: so I'm you know, it's not me to sit there

142
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: and say, you know that it would be you know,

143
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 1: I think that they I think that they could do

144
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 1: more with Dak at quarterback. But you need to see

145
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: Dak do more and win games. Yeah, that's that's where

146
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 1: this argument is. You mentioned the receivers, and that led

147
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 1: me to think, do you guys feel that because we

148
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: always talk about how Dak needs help around him most

149
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: quarterbacks do. Okay, we get that point, but he does

150
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: need that kind of help. We know the improvements that

151
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: the old line has had and they're doing good, but

152
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: as far as the receivers and the rest of the

153
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: group you can throw in their running backs as well,

154
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: do you feel that everybody else is doing enough to

155
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: what Dak would need? And this is a weird question

156
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: because you're seeing it with what they're giving Cooper Rush,

157
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: But when you get daged back in, are everybody else

158
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: doing enough to cater to him? Well? Right now, my opinion,

159
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: catering to him, or catering to any quarterback on this

160
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: team is about the defense. It's not about the receivers,

161
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: it's not about the tight ends, it's not about the

162
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: offensive line. It is, in my opinion, about this defense.

163
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: That's the other reason why I have a hard time

164
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: with the whole Cooper Rush conversation is because he is

165
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: playing with right now, in my opinion, one of the best,

166
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: if not the best defenses in the National Football League,

167
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: and doing that will forwards you a lot of letl

168
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: if you have a team where you're like punning is

169
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: a good thing, you know you're doing it like that

170
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: means that the defense is what you you rely on.

171
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: So for me, I don't think it's about the it's

172
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: not about the receivers, it's not about all the other stuff.

173
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,239
Speaker 1: It's about the defense. As long as the defense keeps playing,

174
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: you can keep winning. Is it gonna be clear this week?

175
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: That's what I was gonna ask. Is it gonna is

176
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 1: this the weekend where all of a sudden that you know,

177
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: ten offensive points are not going to be enough? Yeah? Probably,

178
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: I mean probably, I mean, yeah, it seems that way.

179
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: We'll see what's gonna bend. I mean, we'll see if

180
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: the Cowboys defense is really really that good in that dynamic.

181
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: But we're gonna get into it as well. Like the

182
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 1: Eagles are winning with defense as well. I mean the

183
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: Eagles deep, yes they are there, but look at their

184
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: offensive numbers. Their offensive numbers up there as well, right,

185
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,439
Speaker 1: but they're winning with defense though. Defense. I mean, look

186
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: at what look at what they're I mean, they that

187
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: they did not in the Detroit game, but all the

188
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: other games they won. Their defense is playing lights out.

189
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: I'm just saying this isn't You can't just make the

190
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: claim that the Cowboys have the best defense on the

191
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: field in this game. I mean, I think the Eagles

192
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: or defense is just is just as good. Their point

193
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 1: their stats are good, and the reason why they're five

194
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,559
Speaker 1: and ohs because their offense is dynamic as well. It's

195
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: kind of what you hope Dallas's offense would be with

196
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: a really good defense, that the ability to score some

197
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: points and then you know, that's that's that that I

198
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: just go back to win. And I was working in

199
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: Green Bay way way back in the day when you

200
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: played the Cowboys the Super Bowl Cowboys, they would get

201
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: a lead on you and then the defense would choke

202
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: you out. You know. That's that's where my experience was. Yeah,

203
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: that's the way it always was. It was they found

204
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 1: a way to use the weapons. They would get twenty

205
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,679
Speaker 1: four points and that was enough. Yeah, it would always

206
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: that sounds like that's how Philly is doing it. I

207
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: think is is their offense good enough to get those

208
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: points and then the defense is just like, you're not

209
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: coming back where I think that that this is going

210
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: to end, you know, eventually, for for Cooper Rush and

211
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, is this winning streak is the red zone offense.

212
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:17,439
Speaker 1: And yes, there's things that I think that that Cooper

213
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 1: does just as well, if not somewhat better than Dak.

214
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 1: But there are some things that Dak obviously does better.

215
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: And that to me is pocket presence and awareness and

216
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: red zone and the ability to RPOs and ability to

217
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: run in touchdowns. I don't see that happening from the

218
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: six yard line of Cooper Rush running it in. Dat

219
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: can do that. And I think red zone struggles are

220
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: going to be an issue if you can't run the

221
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: ball and have a quarterback because Jalen Hurts certainly does

222
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: and I'm not saying Dak would be Hurts, but Dad

223
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: can do more of that, and I think when you

224
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: get down there, it's gonna be harder to score. I

225
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 1: think obviously DAK would give you a better red zone

226
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,839
Speaker 1: ability to score. Okay, you have better memories. I think

227
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,959
Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember or if my memory is playing

228
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: games with me. But I feel like they have been okay,

229
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 1: like they're bettering the red zone, but their problem is

230
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 1: getting to the red zone, Like they can never get

231
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: to that point. But when they get there, they seem

232
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: to be to be fairly okay. Which here which well,

233
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 1: I will say this get talking about what what Zeke

234
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: said yesterday. He pointed out that he thought the biggest

235
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 1: problem for this offense is third downs. Yeah, and they

236
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: look at it right now. They're twenty ninth in the

237
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: league and converting third downs that is a significant problem

238
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: for them. And you want to talk about sustaining drives

239
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 1: to get to the red zone, that's part of the problem.

240
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 1: They're not sustaining drives enough to get those convert those

241
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,719
Speaker 1: third downs. But once they rarely make it there, they

242
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 1: seem to I mean, from what I remember, they managed

243
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 1: to get in whether it's running the ball or going no, no,

244
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: you're right, But it's with Zeke's right. They're they're they're

245
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: they're bad on third downs. And that's the thing about

246
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: it that you know you had two thirds, actually had

247
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: three third downs the other day that you could have

248
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: converted on all three, you know they but you had

249
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: the penalty on the third and one run when Hendershott

250
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: got called for holding. At the end of the game,

251
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 1: you had to drop by Ceedee Lamb and you had

252
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: to drop by by our other guy, Uh, why don't

253
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: everyone's the Gallup Michael Gallup. Yeah, guy just was to

254
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: me names in my head. But Gallup, you know his

255
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: drop and ceedee Lambs drop and then the holding point.

256
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,079
Speaker 1: That was three third down plays that should have been converted,

257
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: you know, those were all third and then that keeps

258
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: drives going. And so now your percentage was there. I

259
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: think they're like at thirty one percent right now, you know.

260
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: So we're on the other end of it, though. The

261
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: Eagles on their offense are like, you know, ten to

262
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 1: twelve percentage points better than that. Yeah, so you know,

263
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: but their Eagles defense though, has been a little bit

264
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 1: of a struggle on third down for them too. So well,

265
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: you know, something something might have to give in this

266
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: football game. Yeah, they're they're twenty fifth right now in

267
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: the league and third downs that they're giving up. So

268
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: they're giving up a lot of third downs. Cowboys aren't

269
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: getting third downs. Something will, something has to somebody's gonna

270
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: get better this game. I'll go back to the red

271
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: zone here. The the Cowboys rank thirty first in the

272
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 1: NFL and trips to the red eleven. Only Houston has

273
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 1: has less, with ten on the flip side. Oh well,

274
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 1: and of that eleven there, they've scored six times, so touchdown,

275
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: so that's a forty five percent. You know that that

276
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: ranks them twenty six. But trips to the red zone

277
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: only eleven, which is the problem getting there. Yeah, now

278
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: they have you know, a couple of long runs and

279
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 1: stuff like that, but for the most part, you know

280
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: that that's been a challenge. But on the flip side,

281
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: they've only allowed teams in their nine times, which is

282
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: by far the best in the in the league. So

283
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: um and and so their defense is really really good

284
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,079
Speaker 1: in the red zone. In their offense not so much.

285
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,319
Speaker 1: Once again, you're winning with defense. This is this offense

286
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: is actually if this offence is playing but no, but

287
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 1: but I think you know what the point is. The

288
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 1: point is if you take this offense run by Cooper

289
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: Rush and you put it with the defense from last year,

290
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are probably a one or two win team

291
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 1: right now. That's probably where they with you. And and

292
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: so that's again that's what And I keep making a

293
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 1: point because I'm making the point that let's let's hold

294
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: off on trying to say that that you need to

295
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 1: just keep Cooper Rush in there, because there is gonna

296
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 1: come a game because it happens every year. Well, even

297
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 1: if you have a great defense, they're gonna have a

298
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: rough matchup or they're gonna have a rough game and

299
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 1: you're gonna need the offensive step up. And I'm with you.

300
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: I'm ready to see Dak. I'm ready to see him

301
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: back in the lineup. But again, I'm gonna stick with it.

302
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: I mean, lose a game, Cooper Rush, I mean, quit

303
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: being a stubborn lose the game, you know, quit being

304
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: selfish and keep winning these games. I mean that it's

305
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: his faulty one. Is he winning these games though, Like

306
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: that's the that's the problem. He's not winning these games,

307
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: you know. But we set here for years and I

308
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 1: had Dave and you talking about Dak's four hundred yard

309
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 1: games with an l you know, like all these stats

310
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: he's putting down and all that. So I've been saying

311
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 1: it's a tough balance because you know, we've seen these

312
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: fourth quarter magical games that didn't end up well. But

313
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: it's like, with what kind of defense right, right, right,

314
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 1: and what's right He's never played with this kind of defense,

315
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 1: it will be great. But again, it's just the superstition

316
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: in me. I'm not pulling a I wouldn't, but I'm

317
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 1: not the the same. I mean, how much would you

318
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 1: say the defense improved from week one versus the rest

319
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,359
Speaker 1: of it? You know, he had this defense in week one? Yeah,

320
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: but but they and they, I mean they, hell, they're

321
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: not as good against goats. They're not they're I mean,

322
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: they're not a good against Brady. And let's also be clear,

323
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: is that has that been the best offense this teams

324
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: played this year? I would say so. So maybe what

325
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: we find out is when you're playing right, So maybe

326
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: when you're playing that caliber team, maybe your offense is

327
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: really have to score more points. And by the way

328
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: you're playing, maybe that may have been the best defense

329
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 1: that you played this year. I think the point, I

330
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: think the point you made yesterday and I actually stole

331
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: it and used it on the radio yesterday was the

332
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: one about where you put all the rankings for the

333
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: offensive lines that they played. You know, when you start

334
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: saying rams thirty one, yeah, they're commanders thirty. You know,

335
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: you start going through and like, because I asked my

336
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: I mean they were My guys were like, you gotta

337
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: run the ball, you gotta you gotta you know, you

338
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: gotta and I go, you think this team's pass rush

339
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 1: is any good? And they're like, oh god, it's the

340
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: best in the league. Okay, here, let me run off

341
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: who all they're playing against. And then and then Gavin

342
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: immediately went to break. You know, we went right, you know,

343
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: we're not talking about you know, it's because you know,

344
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: the argument was. The argument was about you know, how

345
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: they went in these games, they do in this, you

346
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: know on that and I'm like, okay, and I go,

347
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: and I gave you credit I actually does is Derek

348
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: Eagleton brought this up on the on the show that

349
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 1: I was with, and so yeah, I mean it's sometimes,

350
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: but it's it's it's a it's not a small sample size.

351
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: I mean there's things that you're looking at right now

352
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: and you're going like, okay, is this what we're going

353
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: to see the rest of the year. Remember last year,

354
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: eight weeks in the season, we were all talking about

355
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: Kevin Moore being the next head coat somewhere. We were

356
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: all worried about losing Kellen Moore because how good the

357
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: offense was. And then eight weeks later we were all

358
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: trying to get rid of Kellen Moore. You know that.

359
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,040
Speaker 1: You just you just hope this isn't the flip of

360
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: like all of a sudden, Oh, the Philadelphia, Philadelphia showed

361
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: you how to attack the Dallas defense. You know that

362
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: kind of thing I got. If that happens, I don't

363
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 1: know what do you do? You have? Were I forgot?

364
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: But where does Pheley rank? As far as these are

365
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: sacking we're talking about sacks, they're eighteenth, They're eighteenth their

366
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 1: offensive life, so it's not great, but they're they're banging.

367
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 1: And they played some teams the Cowboys where they've taken

368
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 1: advantage of offensive lines. They've done and they and that's

369
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: something that in the past they never did. They never

370
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: took advantage of a compromised offense. And let's also be clear,

371
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,919
Speaker 1: I think I personally think the model of how you

372
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: beat this defense is already out there. Team just haven't

373
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 1: been able to get them in that situation enough. They

374
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: are not a good run defense. They are towards the

375
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: bottom part of league when it comes to run defense.

376
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 1: You get them in a situation where you get an

377
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 1: elite on them and now you can effectively run the

378
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 1: ball and you don't have to panic and get away

379
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 1: from your run that's a way to get at this defense,

380
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: I think. And this is why this game I think

381
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: is pivotal because it is a team that has that balance.

382
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,479
Speaker 1: Like you were saying, this is a really good defense.

383
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,919
Speaker 1: It's a good offense too. They can score maybe more

384
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 1: points than what you've seen so far and be able

385
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: to stick with their run games. So you're saying, to

386
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: take the ball if you win the toss. No, no,

387
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 1: I'm deferring because we were trying to yesterday, trying to

388
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,159
Speaker 1: figure out though, and ask you guys this question. We

389
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,360
Speaker 1: were trying to figure out if you could trade for something.

390
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: I don't don't tell me a player, just tell me

391
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 1: a position. Tell me a position right now that you

392
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,479
Speaker 1: would trade for to help this team going forward. Because

393
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: because my guys all were saying defensive tackle, and I said, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait,

394
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:48,120
Speaker 1: it's not the inside runs, it's the perimeter stuff. And

395
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 1: so I went into this long you know how I talk,

396
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: you know, I'm like waving my hands like Brad Sham talking,

397
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 1: you know, and that kind of thing. And so I'm

398
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: trying to say to wait a minute, you know, how

399
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,959
Speaker 1: about the safety, the forced corner, how about the defensive end.

400
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 1: How about that's not players, that's just how you play.

401
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: But there's like, no, if you get this, you go

402
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: trade for the guy a Carolina, the big defensive tackle,

403
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: you know. And I'm like, it's not that, it's the edges,

404
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: it's the outside that runs. The one thing the note

405
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,959
Speaker 1: actually was just looking to stat before we came in.

406
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: Cowboys are ranked twenty first in the league and giving

407
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: up inside runs four point four yards per carry. They

408
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,880
Speaker 1: are ranked twentieth giving up five point one yards per

409
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 1: carry on outside runs. So they have been equally bad

410
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: on both. Okay, they're not great, but here's it seems

411
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: like to me they get killed on the perimeter more

412
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 1: than they get killed in right now, And I agree

413
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: with you. I agree with you, but I don't think

414
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 1: I don't think it's necessarily about personnel. I think these

415
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: are scheme induced. Like what I mean by that is,

416
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: I think you got a very aggressive defense. They are

417
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,400
Speaker 1: going at the quarterback, and I think they get gashed sometimes.

418
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: I think that if because there are times in games

419
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: when opponents want to run the ball and Cowboys are

420
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 1: having are not having it. And I think it's because

421
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,199
Speaker 1: they basically are in no situations of the game, like,

422
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,399
Speaker 1: all right, let's lock down on the run. We're not

423
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 1: rushing the passer in the same way we are locking

424
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: down the run. So I think they have the personnel

425
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 1: if you gave me that choice of what player I want.

426
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 1: It ain't even on the defensive side of the ball.

427
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: I'm good with my personnel there. Keep what we got

428
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 1: figure out, and I trust dan Quinn to figure it out.

429
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: I think there are a number of places on the

430
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: offense where you say, well, we could be a little

431
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: better here, and maybe that gives us a little more

432
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna take our first break and we

433
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: come back. We're gonna jump in Philly defense versus Dallas offense.

434
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: We'll be right back Dallas Cowboys dot Com review. Todd

435

Speaker 1: It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he learned the

441
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,840

481
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,880
Speaker 1: Studios at the Starlist Jump in Philadelphia, defense versus Dallas offense. Brian,

482
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: what's the best thing they do. I think it's it

483
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: starts with really the front seven. You know, when you

484
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: look at them, they've got a really nice rotation, much

485
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 1: like the Cowboys do with their guys. Josh Sweats playing well,

486
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: Fletcher Cox, we all we know him from days gone by.

487
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: You know, Hargrave at the defensive tackle, him and Jordan

488
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,439
Speaker 1: Davis had been kind of rotating their Brandon Graham is

489
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: every time I want to throw dirt on Brandon Graham,

490
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 1: he comes back with a soccer three, you know, that

491
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 1: kind of thing. But yeah, they've done a really nice

492
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: job and Hassan Reddick as well. So it's really about

493
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 1: up front. It's about the pressure that they're able to get.

494
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: They do a good job of their physical you know,

495
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: handling blocks, you know, getting off blocks, getting up the field,

496
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: being disruptive. I think that their secondary is the one

497
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 1: that you could kind of I know it's James Bradbury

498
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 1: and Darius Slay and guys like that. I think this.

499
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,120
Speaker 1: I think Gardner Johnson their nickel or really their safety.

500
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,479
Speaker 1: I think that's a little bit of a liability for

501
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: them as a tackler. So to me, when they play

502
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: zone coverage, they get in trouble. There's a lot of

503
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: routes that you see in front and Arizona, I thought

504
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 1: did a really nice job of sitting down in zones

505
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 1: and attack in that and they were Kyler Murray was

506
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 1: able to find, you know, find his guy. So when

507
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 1: you had to take advantage of that, they're gonna play

508
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: his own coverage on you. This Uh, this is a

509
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 1: team also too that likes to hold in the secondary.

510
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 1: And this week, you know, when you look at the officials, uh,

511
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 1: you know it's it's gonna be it's gonna be whether

512
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: you get those holding calls in this game. And because

513
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: they're a very grabby group and you know that could

514
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 1: kind of swing a game one way or another. So

515
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 1: it's John Hussey as the official in this game. And

516
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 1: Hussey's crew calls the second most UH pass interference penalties

517
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 1: in the league. And so but the you know that

518
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,479
Speaker 1: that's something to keep an eye on right there. Because

519
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,439
Speaker 1: Sleigh likes to hold, Bradberry likes to hold, and when

520
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 1: they get the opportunity. Maddox has been injured for them,

521
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,360
Speaker 1: so he hasn't been a factor in this thing. As

522
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: like the nickel, But I think it's going back to it, Derek. Guys,

523
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: it starts really upfront with these guys. How many how

524
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 1: many games or did you see other games than Arizona?

525
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 1: Because I wonder is when you when you face Kyler Murray,

526
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 1: you're worried about that kind of dynamic, do you play

527
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: it differently than they're not gonna be worried as much

528
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 1: about Cooper Rush. Do you think they play the zone

529
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 1: as much in other teams or maybe just that one.

530
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 1: I just think that there was a there was a

531
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: good balance. It's a great question. I think there was

532
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 1: a pretty good balance of that. When you see they

533
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 1: they they get in man they like to play man

534
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: coverage when they get into their nickel stuff on a

535
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 1: third down, and then they'll play the zone stuff seems

536
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,199
Speaker 1: to be I think they're a little scared about the

537
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: speed on the outside or lack of when they get guys.

538
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 1: You know, they don't want to just get up on

539
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 1: somebody and get run by. So I think it's more

540
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: of a it's more of a uh, it's more of

541
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: a trying like Okay, we're gonna come after you, we're

542
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 1: gonna blitch you, We're gonna rush you, We're gonna play

543
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 1: man there. But I saw a lot more zone than

544
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 1: I did, you know, with the with the man demand

545
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 1: stuff on the games I did. I watched three three

546
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 1: them play three games, and you know they were you

547
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 1: know they were, they were. It just seemed like to

548
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 1: me when they're when they were given up plays, it

549
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: was because of the zone coverage stuff. Going back to

550
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: the stat which I had seen earlier to about third

551
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: downs and the comparison between what they give up and

552
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 1: what the Cowboys currently do. Do you think Brian that

553
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: for this game, because there are times where I think, Okay,

554
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 1: you trust your defense so much, and I get it,

555
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 1: you have to punt at times, but why not take

556
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 1: that extra like try, like go for it? So do

557
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: you think maybe this is a time where we'll see

558
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 1: them kind of going for it a little more than

559
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: what they're used to, just to give it a try

560
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: and see if they are successful. I think you have

561
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: two coaches, and I would call McCarthy pretty aggressive with

562
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: what he does too, when he goes back to when

563
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 1: you go back to the look at what he's done

564
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,919
Speaker 1: going for it on his own end of the field.

565
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: You know, I mean, I think and I know that

566
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 1: Siriani their coaches, he's a go for it guy from

567
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: the jump. So yeah, it's just gonna be one of

568
00:26:56,320 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: those games where I think both teams have the ability,

569
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,160
Speaker 1: and especially if like say that, when I watched Philadelphia

570
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: on tape, it was it just seemed like that they're

571
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: always going for it on fourth down, no matter where

572
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:09,239
Speaker 1: they are on the field. Not as bad as what

573
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: the Chargers do. Chargers are on their own eighteen yard

574
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:13,640
Speaker 1: line and they go for it on fourth down because

575
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: that's what they do. But this guy is very, very

576
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,919
Speaker 1: aggressive that way. And then McCarthy has proven though the

577
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 1: last couple of times that they've been out those fourth

578
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: downs that they've had, whether on his end or the

579
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: other end, that he's more willing to go for it.

580
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 1: So I think this is a game that you got

581
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: to go out there and you have to be aggressive end,

582
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, people are probably feeling like that

583
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are not going to win this game with

584
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush at quarterback, you know, they're gonna and he

585
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 1: might have to take some chances to get some points too.

586
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 1: You know, three points kicking field goals might not be

587
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 1: enough in this game. You know, having to find a

588
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: way to get touchdowns. That's probably the path that he

589
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 1: that he's gonna need to take. You look at Philadelphia's

590
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,160
Speaker 1: rush defense, and it's been it's been a weird mix.

591
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,360
Speaker 1: There's some games are given up a lot to some games.

592
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: They've been very bad games Alliance. They're Yeah, they're averaging

593
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: one hundred and three yards per game. Yeah, that they

594
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 1: allow against the Lions, they gave up one hundred and

595
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 1: eighty one yards on ground, which is huge, one to

596
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 1: twenty four against Arizona. What did Arizona and Detroit do

597
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 1: specifically that made them more successful against the running than

598
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 1: some of the other opponents. Yeah, I think which the

599
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 1: thing that when Detroit just took the ball right at

600
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 1: them too, and you know they were able to they

601
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 1: know it was one of those things when you play

602
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: the first game as the first game of the year,

603
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,880
Speaker 1: so you always worry about conditioning and things like that.

604
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 1: You know, when it comes to when it comes to

605
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 1: how your team's gonna play, where they ready, were they

606
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 1: prepared to have the rotations and stuff like that. I

607
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 1: think Detroit was just more physical than and this is

608
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: this could be a very physical front. But what they're

609
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,959
Speaker 1: also in a situation and right now is where you

610
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: know they they're linebackers. When you get past that first level,

611
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: it's see some problems with their linebackers too. You know,

612
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 1: whether it was t J. Edwards, you know that he's

613
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: as a MIC linebacker. They really Hassan Reddicks listened as

614
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: a SAM linebacker, but he's more of a rusher, so

615
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: people that we're able to kind of break that first,

616
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: that first wave and then get there's you know, the

617
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 1: stuff with this is a very aggressive defense. So you

618
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: get guys that you take them one way and then

619
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 1: bring the ball back the other with the polls and

620
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: the traps and things like that. So that's kind of

621
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: what the Detroit. I thought Detroit was just more physical

622
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 1: running the football. Arizona again, the stuff with the quarterback

623
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 1: makes a lot of difference for them too. Yeah, it's

624
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: interesting you mentioned Hassan Reddick. He leads their team with

625
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: four and a half sacks. He's a linebacker, which signifies

626
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 1: me they must be blitzing quite a bit. That being said,

627
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: how much do they blitz and where does he typically

628
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: line up if there is a beat on that on

629
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 1: where I noticed he plays on your he plays on

630
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 1: a lot of it on the on the offensive right side. Okay,

631
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: so he's gonna be on the defensive left is what's

632
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 1: gonna happen. Josh Sweat generally plays the other side, uh,

633
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: you know with with that rush. So if you're gonna

634
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: if you're gonna see Reddick, he's gonna moving around part I.

635
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: Every time I looked at it, I'd say, Okay, where's

636
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 1: he going to be? It was off that right tackle

637
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: spot is where he's going to come from. How comfortably

638
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,479
Speaker 1: feel with that? I mean still over there? They give

639
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: him a little help, I would assume, But how do

640
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: you feel? How comfortable do you guys feel with that?

641
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: And you've talked Nick a lot about Tony Pollard and

642
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 1: the reason why Tony Pollard doesn't get on the feel

643
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 1: as much as everybody wants to see him is because

644
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: of blitz pick up. Yeah, I thought he missed one

645
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 1: the other day with Ramsey coming off the edge. You know,

646
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: I don't think he saw it right away. He kind

647
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: of went inside of the guard and I didn't. I

648
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 1: just didn't think he saw it at all. And now

649
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: that would have been a quite a collision if he did,

650
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 1: because I mean Ramsey's screaming off the edge there. But

651
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 1: that's what he's supposed to do. I mean, you know,

652
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 1: he's a willing blocker. He just you just gotta be

653
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 1: alert and you also have to be big enough to

654
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 1: do it. That's one of his issues. Um, but you

655
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: know the awareness though, if you mentioned that, that's the thing.

656
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing with with Pollard is his

657
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 1: willingness to do it. I think don't think it's a problem.

658
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 1: The finish is not always great. It's how are you

659
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: reading it? How are you seeing it? Are you are

660
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: You're you know, most guys are taught to read inside

661
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: out and you know, and sometimes he gets just so

662
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 1: inside focused that you miss that that slot blitz is

663
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: what happened last week on that play. Yeah, yeah, real

664
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: quick before we go to break. I did have this

665
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: other question. You look at their past defense, and although

666
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 1: you talked about the front seven, yeah, they've been very

667
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: Stingty only given up one hundred and eighty nine yards

668
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 1: per game passing. That is a I mean, that's a

669
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: really really great number. My question would be, is that

670
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 1: more a reflection of their past rush? I think it's rush.

671
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 1: I think it's the rush. I think the front the

672
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 1: front clearly affects the way that people throw the ball.

673
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 1: I do feel like, you know, this team is seeing

674
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: James Bradbury play when he's with the Giants. You know,

675
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: you've seen Darius Slay play, you know, with when he

676
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: spent at Philadelphia. But I could say that you know this,

677
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 1: this this Gardner Johnson that they traded for from the

678
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 1: from New Orleans. I don't think he's been as good.

679
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 1: And so to me, you know, these guys hold. I

680
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: mentioned that because of the flat, they hold a lot.

681
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: They're in position because they're holding. And I'll be interested

682
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: to see if the officials, like I say, call this

683
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 1: in a way that they allow them to get away

684
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 1: with it. If they do allow them to get away

685
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: with it, then yeah, that's where you that's where you

686
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: limit the yards. But to me, there's a lot of

687
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: times where this group could have been called for. I

688
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 1: was watching the Arizona game and just the way Darius

689
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: Slay inside breaking rods, grabbing guy's arms, pulling the guy's arm,

690
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 1: you know, downline you're and it's not a call, and

691
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 1: you're like going, oh, okay, well if that's if. But

692
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 1: to their credit, they haven't been called for it. We'll

693
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 1: see if this crew does call it though this week.

694
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 1: Let's add to our final break when we come back.

741
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: Let's get into some questions that we have from some fans.

742
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,480
Speaker 1: They were sent earlier this week, but I save someone

743
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,719
Speaker 1: because we didn't get to them, and they are specific

744
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:21,280
Speaker 1: to the Cowboys offense. First question from Blue Star Gang says,

745
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 1: have we seen enough from Noah Brown to where Washington

746
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 1: is now expendable or as Tolbert underwhelmed to the point

747
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 1: you have to keep Washington as your fourth receiver. So

748
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 1: there's two questions here. I kind of really forgot about

749
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: Tolbert again. You're done with Tolbert? No, no, no, no, no,

750
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 1: I'm not done with him. He just got here, hold on,

751
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 1: all right, but no, it's just again, we were waiting

752
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 1: for him to get back from the injury and all that.

753
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 1: Then he got back, he didn't do much, and then

754
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,359
Speaker 1: it just easily became like, I don't remember what has

755
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:01,399
Speaker 1: he done that. I genuinely do not remember what he's

756
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: done other than that first week when he got back

757
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 1: in Yeah, I think that his confidence really got crushed

758
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 1: in Oxnard, you know, and they asked him to do

759
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: a lot of things, and it just didn't appear that

760
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: he was very capable of doing it. I really believed

761
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: when we were doing the draft show that he was

762
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:20,320
Speaker 1: NFL ready. When you watched him play, he looked very confident,

763
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 1: he looked poised, you know, he made big plays you know,

764
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,879
Speaker 1: in those games. And he got here and he looks

765
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 1: like a completely different player. And so now when you

766
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,439
Speaker 1: do that, you go back and you say, Okay, what

767
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,840
Speaker 1: did I see? Did I miss something with this player?

768
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,839
Speaker 1: I think that I think that he just got overwhelmed

769
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 1: and I don't think he ever recovered from that, and

770
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 1: so being inactive and all that, I you know, it's

771
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 1: sometimes it's it's one of those things that you have

772
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 1: to go through. But he just doesn't look like that.

773
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,439
Speaker 1: They number one, They don't have confidence in him right now.

774
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: They probably wouldn't you know, if you asked him with

775
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 1: a microphone in their face, they would say, no, no,

776
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 1: we're happy with everything. But they're probably thinking, Okay, how

777
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 1: can we build this kid because he's he's not the

778
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: same player he was at South Alabama? Coming from South Alabama?

779
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: I mean, should we be a little more patient? Like, yeah, well,

780
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 1: should they have to be more patient? Well? His I

781
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: got his stats right here. His freshman year he had

782
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: played five games, he caught five balls for sixty yards. Okay,

783
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: his uh, his junior year he caught sixty four passes

784
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 1: four thousand yards and eight touchdowns. And his senior year

785
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: twelve I mean eighty two catches fourteen hundred yards. Well,

786
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I know, I get your point. Yeah, I

787
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 1: mean right, you have to and and and I will

788
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,760
Speaker 1: always be a little bit more patient every time because

789
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 1: of A Miles Austin. They're not all gonna be that way.

790
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 1: Sometimes they're Jamaica director is just gonna be Jamaica Director.

791
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 1: I mean that's just the way it is, right, But

792
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: but you have to be patient with not only receivers,

793
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 1: but small school receivers like that. You said, you know,

794
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 1: he got here and he looked like a different player,

795
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,360
Speaker 1: and he probably did. He also saw a different player

796
00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 1: on the other side of him, and so you know,

797
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: I think you have to be patient. But yeah, I

798
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: mean I would have thought, you know, but then again,

799
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,360
Speaker 1: he said, he's a few inches away from a different

800
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,319
Speaker 1: mentality all around. If he gets his right foot down

801
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,399
Speaker 1: and he scores that touchdown against the Chargers and then

802
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:11,800
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, look at him, you know, in the

803
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 1: back of the end zone. Nice play. But so he

804
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: you know, he was really close to making some plays,

805
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: and so I think it gives you some confidence of saying,

806
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: all right, don't need him as much this year. But

807
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 1: I bet you next year we'll hear McCarthy saying, one

808
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 1: guy I really like from last year is Jalon Tolber.

809
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:30,840
Speaker 1: He was in the workout, he's been at the backyard

810
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: back there, he's you know, so we'll see. Yeah, that's

811
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 1: the thing too. And I think you make a great

812
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: point about that. The thing that maybe five to eight

813
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 1: years ago, when you say that you kind of let

814
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 1: go all right, makes sense. The way that these receivers

815
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 1: are coming out of college that is true, and then

816
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 1: all of a sudden jumping in and it doesn't matter.

817
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 1: I know, the Packers drafting kid from North Dakota State

818
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 1: and he's a dropping balls. He was a second round pick.

819
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot of kids, and not every

820
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 1: kid is like Chase Sir Jeffers Center like that. But

821
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:03,720
Speaker 1: we're starting to see a lot more that these college

822
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 1: kids are coming in and stepping in and immediately starting

823
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,839
Speaker 1: to play. Yeah, And that's the thing that's just a

824
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 1: little disheartening as an evaluator that you kind of felt like,

825
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 1: this is one of those kids, this is one of

826
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 1: those kids that could come in and play. And you're right,

827
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's a lot different playing you know,

828
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 1: Appalachian State than it is playing the Los Angeles Rams.

829
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,759
Speaker 1: You know, you know, but you know who messes it

830
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 1: up for everyone? It's always one guy that messes it

831
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 1: up because there's probably a thought process of these small

832
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: school receivers and all that. And then Cooper Cup comes

833
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 1: in and you are all over Cooper Cup in the

834
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 1: draft and he was he was as good if not

835
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: wait was he his first year? I don't remember. I

836
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 1: think he was. He was immediately Brian was upset, but

837
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: that they didn't. I mean he would he was all over.

838
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 1: Yeah I knew, I knew from draft. But but I

839
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: mean he obviously good enough to say hmm uhh yeah

840
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 1: see the thing yea, But yeah, that's the thing that

841
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 1: just because what we've seen in this day and age

842
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 1: with like say five to eight years ago, it man,

843
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: these you know, first round receiver the numbers were forty

844
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 1: eight catches, eight hundred and sixty four yards, four touchdowns.

845
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:12,280
Speaker 1: Now it's you know, now it's one hundred and ten catches,

846
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 1: and you know, it's these crazy numbers, and you're going, Okay,

847
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,399
Speaker 1: that's I guess that's what's happening in our league now. Yeah,

848
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: all right, real quick, we didn't answer the question. I

849
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 1: was gonna say, no, that's where I was going. I

850
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 1: was gonna say, give me up date on Washington. What

851
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: are we hearing about him? Um? I think the Cowboys

852
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 1: are in no hurry there and I don't know where

853
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: he is as far as health wise, I was told

854
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: it could still be a couple more weeks. I don't

855
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: know if it's because that's what the injury is or

856
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 1: they just don't really need it, because initially it was

857
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: going to be around this time. It would have been

858
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 1: around this time. Knock on wood. One of these receivers

859
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:45,680
Speaker 1: comes out with the risk injury. It's like, you know,

860
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: Washington's ready to play like Washington week, just like you know,

861
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: so we'll see. I bet you he's a little bit

862
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,880
Speaker 1: further along. But you know that's what happens with the rules.

863
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 1: The rules are. You just want to injury reserve and

864
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: we'll start his twenty one day window when we want

865
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 1: to start it. Right, all the receiver are doing things,

866
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 1: and you know they're all playing, whether it's you know,

867
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 1: they're playing special teams, even Semi Phihoko, guys like that.

868
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: Everybody did stressing Washington doesn't do that for you. True.

869
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:13,720
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on to the next question. Anthony

870
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 1: Villeneuava says, what's one area you think the passing game

871
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: can get better with just one area? If you had

872
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 1: to pinpoint one area we want the passing game to

873
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 1: be better, what would you want to I wish they

874
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: threw better screens. I wish they threw better screens, whether

875
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:28,840
Speaker 1: it's tight end screens. I mean, I'm watching everybody in

876
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,240
Speaker 1: the league the last couple of weeks I've watched guys

877
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 1: like Tyler Higbee and I'm watching you know, Dallas god

878
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,720
Speaker 1: Or and these guys, and I'm watching teams leak backs

879
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 1: out and all of a sudden, it's just a devastating play.

880
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: This team can't get out of its own way when

881
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 1: it comes to throwing a screen. They can't get the

882
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: guys out about the offensive line not being mobile enough

883
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 1: to get out there, or I don't know, if it's coronation.

884
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 1: I mean, they've got guys that can actually move. They do.

885
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,919
Speaker 1: They've got guys that are athletic enough to get out

886
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 1: in space and make things happen. They don't get any

887
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,360
Speaker 1: blocks on the outside. You know, that gets all buddled

888
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,720
Speaker 1: up at times, but you know, or the run people.

889
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 1: It's just it's so frustrating to watch teams around the

890
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:08,799
Speaker 1: league be able to use and this one, this team

891
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,479
Speaker 1: you're about to play, they will screen you to death.

892
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 1: And because they know it's an easy throw for their quarterback.

893
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,800
Speaker 1: That's the kinds of things that could help Cooper rush.

894
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:18,840
Speaker 1: You know, just a little simple screen that could go

895
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,879
Speaker 1: for twenty six yards. That's a big help my thing,

896
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 1: And I've said it for fifteen years. I've asked to

897
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,440
Speaker 1: get the player on the roster, and now he's on

898
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 1: the roster and he's not any particle player. I just

899
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,759
Speaker 1: I just think you're you're using a You're wasting a

900
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 1: dynamic player in turpid. I don't you don't have to

901
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,279
Speaker 1: give him the football, you don't. I mean, maybe once

902
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 1: in a while, but use him on a screen on

903
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 1: a reverse even if he doesn't get it. Just give

904
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: it to him one time around the corner. See what

905
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 1: happens if he gets five or six yards. But you

906
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: could fake it to him three more times the rest

907
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 1: of the game. And I just think they're not using that.

908
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 1: You don't trust them as a as a blocker, whether

909
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 1: that's fine, but he can have a role that can

910
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 1: scare the crap out of some teams on the back end.

911
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: And I'm kind of surprised they haven't done more of

912
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:05,160
Speaker 1: that with a backup quarterback in games or you can't

913
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 1: really get your offense going. You would think in those

914
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 1: kind of situations, that's where you think you see teams

915
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,799
Speaker 1: doing more wildcat or reverses or things that just kind

916
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 1: of force a defense to respect different things, because you

917
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 1: know you need to give your quarterback a little help

918
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,759
Speaker 1: and basically the only hope they're given him. As you say,

919
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: Brian's really giving max protect They'll Max protecting let him

920
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,880
Speaker 1: throw a ball, but that's all they're doing. Other than that,

921
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 1: they're just like, hey, we're okay if we do three

922
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 1: and out, like we're just gonna pump the ball and

923
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 1: trust our defense. You know. Yeah, the times and I'm

924
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: surprised by that too. The times that he gets he

925
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,040
Speaker 1: does get on the field, they don't do anything with him.

926
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: It's like, okay, why is he even under Yeah, and

927
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 1: even then there are times he doesn't do anything and

928
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 1: you're like, okay, then what are you trying to prove here?

929
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,880
Speaker 1: Or like put on tape that's gonna scare anybody because

930
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:53,240
Speaker 1: you're not. Um, I'm on that with Brian with the screen.

931
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: I feel like a couple of years ago they were

932
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 1: pretty good at that. There really sixteen how many times

933
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 1: like the Zeke then Zeke would they faked the block

934
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 1: and he just kind of slip out and they got

935
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: Lineman in front, you know, whether that was Doug Free

936
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:10,880
Speaker 1: or Tyrann Smith whoever, or Frederick you know, get somebody.

937
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 1: They it's just like it's it's so disjointed and bumping

938
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 1: into each other and no, no, you know, no sell

939
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,920
Speaker 1: at all. So yeah, I mean to me that that's

940
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 1: the simple thing because throwing the ball down the field

941
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 1: and all that, yeah, that can add prove. But man,

942
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:29,959
Speaker 1: just give me something, give me a simple little throw

943
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 1: from my quarterback that just devastates defense is when it works.

944
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,359
Speaker 1: And speaking of selling, I think one of the things

945
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:40,480
Speaker 1: is the fake. Before I would be fool every time

946
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 1: and that God Burd's eye view up here and I

947
00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:44,480
Speaker 1: would have like, oh, oh, the balls over here. I

948
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 1: don't think they're good at that anymore, and they just

949
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 1: and that's some small part, but I think it does

950
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: play a big role in the game if they need

951
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,720
Speaker 1: to improve that aspect of things, just faking it better. Yeah,

952
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,919
Speaker 1: all right, appreciate you guys. Jones back tomorrow. We're gonna

953

954
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:00,600
