Speaker 2: We'll take a little bit of time.

24
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 6: To talk about the NFL and where we think the

25
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 6: NFC is, particularly in the NFC, how we think the

26
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 6: teams are stacking up. Each of these guys give me

27
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 6: their top seven and then of course we will start

28
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 6: today with a.

29
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:17,839
Speaker 2: Little bit of news.

30
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 6: Cowboys working out a wide receiver, and normally when this

31
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 6: name came up yesterday, when I first heard it, I

32
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 6: was thinking, okay, well they're just kind of looking around.

33
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: Uh.

34
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 2: But then Jerry and his time with one O, five.

35
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 6: Dot three of the Fan this morning mentioned on a

36
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 6: couple different occasions, well we got this wide receiver that

37
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 6: we're bringing in the workout today, which made me just

38
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 6: kind of like, is it that big of a deal

39
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 6: Martevis Bryant, guy that hasn't played in the league since

40
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 6: I think twenty eighteen, So it made me think let's

41
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 6: at least have the conversation and see if there's anything

42
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 6: we should be thinking about here. Brian, I'll start with

43
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 6: you going back to your scouting of Martevis Bryant as

44
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 6: a player, and before you.

45
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 7: Even get into that, why do we need a wide receiver?

46
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 4: Oh, we're going to We're gonna get to that.

47
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 2: We're going to that. We're going to let's start first.

48
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 4: Okay, I got a plan.

49
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 7: Okay, I'm going to apologize.

50
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 6: But I do want to start first with saying, okay,

51
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 6: Martins Bryant, tell me about the player.

52
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 7: Sorry, proceed, he's gonna just.

53
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 6: One day, I don't know, one day He's not just

54
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 6: we're good.

55
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, I just wanted to see the scenario first before

56
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 7: getting into the player. Yeah.

57
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 8: The thing with Brian is though, I I I think

58
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 8: it's an interesting look at a player just because of

59
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 8: the sis factor of the player.

60
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 3: Uh, the ability. I mean, I think this guy might

61
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 3: have some of that like Deebo Samuel type ability to

62
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 3: him when you hand him the ball, or you throw

63
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 3: him the ball, or you watch him run with the ball.

64
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 8: And unfortunately for him, you know, he got into a

65
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 8: situation with the league that they suspended him, and you know,

66
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 8: he missed the whole entire year. But you look at

67
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 8: this guy's body type, the plays that he has the

68
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 8: ability to make. Yes, it was you know, a few

69
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 8: years ago, but he's the type of guy that's got

70
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 8: something to his game. Back in the day, he was

71
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 8: a physical receiver, he was a physical runner. There were

72
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 8: things about him when you watched him play where you're

73
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 8: like going, gosh, that guy's kind of hard to deal with.

74
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 8: And you know, maybe that time has gone by, but

75
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 8: I always am interested in going back and looking at

76
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 8: players that might have come off from suspensions.

77
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 3: You know, the.

78
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 8: We've seen guys in the past that have come and

79
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 8: they haven't been able to recoup or redo what.

80
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 3: They were once were.

81
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 8: But this guy is an interesting one just because of

82
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 8: his background and where he was that before his suspension

83
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 8: was playing at a pretty high level. So I'm okay

84
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 8: with kicking the tires on something like this.

85
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 2: Interesting thing about him. He's been in the league.

86
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 6: He came into the league in twenty fourteen, played fourteen

87
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 6: and fifteen, suspended for a season, Yeah, in fifteen, I

88
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 6: mean our sixteen, came back and played seventeen and eighteen

89
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 6: and has not played since twenty eighteen. So it's interesting,

90
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 6: like where is he as far as physically, I mean,

91
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 6: that's six years ago that you lasted, five years ago

92
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 6: you last played in the NFL. It's a long time

93
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 6: to not have taken an NFL snap. But obviously the

94
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 6: Cowboys are kicking the tires. And then I think the

95
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 6: natural question that comes from that, which goes to what

96
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 6: A was asking.

97
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 2: Is why are the Cowboys looking for a wide receiver?

98
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 6: Does this at all say something about what they currently

99
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 6: have on the roster or is this a situation where

100
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 6: you just kicked the tires because he was a guy

101
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 6: at one point that was interesting to you.

102
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 4: I think it's more so that than anything. I've been

103
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 4: kind of mugging around in my head for the past

104
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,239
Speaker 4: couple of days on this likely signing at this point.

105
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 4: And it's no harm, no file if you want to

106
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 4: give him a shot because you had some interest in

107
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 4: him a few years ago, And it's not like you're

108
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 4: trying to add him to the active roster and you're

109
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 4: going to sacrifice somebody's spot. It's a practice squad situation.

110
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 4: If it works out for you, great, If it doesn't,

111
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 4: what did it cost you? Right?

112
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 7: So time is money, time is fou.

113
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 4: He's going to be on the same field with the

114
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 4: same coaches and the same players as the other people.

115
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 4: So it's not that it's costing them any more time

116
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 4: than if he weren't here. So to speak, my bigger

117
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 4: question is what are you expecting him to be? So

118
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 4: let's say it does work out, Like, what does that

119
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 4: look like for the Dallas Cowboys? Because what a success

120
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 4: look like?

121
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 6: Right?

122
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 4: What does the success look like for them? So if

123
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 4: he does come in and he's doing what they want

124
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 4: him to do, like, what does that create for them?

125
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 4: Because for me, even if you are of the subscription

126
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 4: that Michael Gallup might not be the answer. Okay, I'm

127
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 4: not quite there yet, especially seeing how he recovered in

128
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 4: the Philadelphia game after that drop. I would, for one,

129
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 4: like to see more snaps to Jalen Tobart. You've seen

130
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 4: Tobart produce Tobert gets the touchdown. You see Jalen Brooks.

131
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 4: He's the undrafted rookie, he's on the practice squad, he

132
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 4: was a standout in training camp. You have that as well,

133
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 4: so you already have some semblance of depth at the position.

134
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 4: Cavante turping is an option at wide receiver as well.

135
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 4: Behind you know Cookson and Ceede, Lamb and Gallop Jake Ferguson,

136
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 4: who I believe should be the number two target for

137
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 4: Dak Prescott until further notice. That's the only question I

138
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 4: have is if Martavis Bryant works out for the Cowboys

139
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 4: from a schematic standpoint, what does that look like for

140
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 4: them at that position? And that's what I can't yet

141
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 4: figure out. And that's where you and I are on

142
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 4: the same page as far as kind of bumping our

143
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 4: head against that wall, like what are we not seeing

144
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 4: here behind that wall? But as far as risk reward

145
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 4: if it doesn't work out, Okay, no harm no foul

146
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 4: pennies on the dollar, you send him on his way.

147
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 4: If it does, where does that go? So that that's

148
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 4: kind of a great area for me right now.

149
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, it makes zero sense to me whatsoever because of

150
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 7: the needs. I mean, if you've been looking at a player,

151
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 7: what about a tackle? What a lot about an old

152
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 7: lineman that can be I didn't depth in hear when

153
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 7: injuries keep piling up. So it's just it makes sero

154
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 7: sense to me. And on the other hand, But on

155
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 7: the other hand, I would say I do trust a

156
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 7: lot on the whole player acquisition, player evaluation Will McClain

157
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 7: and his group and everything that they've done when acquiring

158
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 7: talent they have history has shown that they've done enough

159
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 7: to back up a lot of the reasonings as to

160
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 7: them bring whoever they want to bring. So there is

161
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 7: that benefit of the doubt, like they know what they're

162
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 7: doing in that sense, But looking at everything that we've

163
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 7: been following this season, it really makes no sense either.

164
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not going to put too much stock a

165
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 4: hype into it. You know, it's a name that was

166
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 4: big in his prime or his best days with Pittsburgh.

167
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 4: I get that, but we're far removed from that, he's

168
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 4: not had a lot of time in the lead the

169
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 4: past several years. He's over the you know, event horizon

170
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 4: of being thirty. He's going to the practice squad, not

171
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 4: the active roster. You don't really need a body there,

172
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 4: so it's kind of a luxury item. So I mean,

173
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 4: just just calling it what it is, I'm not it's

174
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 4: not moving my needle one way or another. If it

175
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 4: works out, I'm interested to see what they would do

176
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 4: with that. If it doesn't, you know, life goes on.

177
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,679
Speaker 8: I think the quay the practice squad rules are now

178
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 8: with the way you're able to add veteran players. It's

179
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 8: to me if if you're really interested in a guy,

180
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 8: that's not a problem at all. I mean you could

181
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 8: work on the Yeah, it's not going to cost you

182
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 8: really any money, veteran minimum money probably you maybe even

183
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 8: practice squad money right now. If you have a deal,

184
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 8: we just elevate him. But you know, yeah, you keep

185
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 8: him on the practice squad. He goes out there, say

186
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 8: he does sign here, I think there's another team interesting Tennessee.

187
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 8: If he doesn't sign here, I think he's going to

188
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 8: go on to Tennessee and work out for them. So yeah,

189
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 8: So you know, there's there's if it was trying to

190
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 8: put a guy on the fifty three and having to

191
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 8: move on from So I think that's your story. I

192
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 8: think right now it's well, let's see if the guy

193
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 8: could practice. Does he look like this guy's six ' four,

194
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 8: two hundred and ten pounds and he's a big guy.

195
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 8: So there might be something that at thirty one years old,

196
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 8: halfway through the season, maybe the guy's kept himself in

197
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 8: incredible shape.

198
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 3: You know.

199
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 8: Maybe somebody a lot of times too, these could be

200
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 8: word of mouth thinks, you know, and maybe you're maybe

201
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,959
Speaker 8: Will is talking to another team or talking to another

202
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 8: guy and like, hey, have you have you done any

203
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 8: work on this Bryant? You know, I've got some tape

204
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 8: on him. I've seen some workouts. Or maybe an agent

205
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 8: called up Jerry, or called up called up Steven, called

206
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 8: up Mike McCarthy, you know, and said, hey, have you

207
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 8: guys taken a look at this this this Brian. He

208
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 8: looks like he's a you know, he looks like he's

209
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 8: in shape. You might want to bring him in just

210
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 8: to see. And that's how it happens a lot of

211
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 8: the times. It might not be for a reason other

212
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 8: than that somebody that you trust as an evaluator has.

213
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,959
Speaker 3: Given you a tip to take a look at this guy.

214
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 6: And that's the thing, Like, it doesn't necessary. I get

215
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 6: your point, Amber, Like there are other positions that are

216
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 6: probably more important, but I do think it also it's

217
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 6: a matter of what's available at the time. Like there

218
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 6: may not be offensive line probably are not offensive linemen

219
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 6: that are just out there right now for you to

220
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 6: really look at every team a strapped for offensive lineman.

221
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:12,839
Speaker 2: Right, but there may be.

222
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 6: Again, this opportunity just presents itself, and this is a

223
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 6: guy that's like, let's just take a look and see

224
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 6: and if he actually happens, actually it turns out to

225
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 6: be a guy that even you can use on your

226
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 6: practice squad to present what you need to looks for

227
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 6: other teams play.

228
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 2: Like you mentioned him looking maybe like a debo, right, if.

229
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 6: He has some of that ability, and if you got

230
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 6: to play San Francisco in the playoffs, it's a great

231
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 6: guy to be able through out there during practice to

232
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 6: be able to show you that.

233
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 2: Look, right, yeah, there are certain things you can get

234
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 2: out of that.

235
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 6: Even if he never touches the field in a game

236
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 6: for the Cowboys, right, yeah, agree.

237
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 8: You know it's funny. You know, there was a time

238
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 8: in my life. There was a time in my life

239
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 8: where I always believe that, you know, you carried extra

240
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 8: linemen and all that. This past trading deadline proved my

241
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 8: point wrong because Minnesota aided a starting offensive lineman to Jacksonville.

242
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 3: And anytime you say.

243
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 8: Go long at go along at defensive line, go long

244
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 8: at offense, it's hard to find these guys teams. You know,

245
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 8: we found the team that was willing to trade. It's

246
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 8: very very rare. And Minnesota did it before they were

247
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 8: starting this little run that they're on right now. They'd

248
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 8: won like two games in a row, and then at

249
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 8: the trading deadline they trade one of their young starting

250
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 8: linemen to Jacksonville, another playoff team. So, man, you know

251
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 8: that's any time you ever hear me say, well, you

252
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 8: know you're never gonna find it. That's bs because people

253
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 8: will if you give somebody the right amount of trade compensation.

254
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 8: And I'm trying to make it to Ambar's point, if

255
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 8: you want to go out there and to trade online,

256
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 8: they wanted to go find an offensive lineman.

257
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 3: They could have gone and found an offensive lineman.

258
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 2: Give up something for it.

259
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 3: You got to give up something for it.

260
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 8: Where's Where's like a time in my life where I

261
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 8: never believe that was ever gonna happen, and for a

262
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 8: long time it didn't. But in this day and age,

263
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,559
Speaker 8: there's two things I've learned. Your starting quarterback can be moved.

264
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 8: That when you can cut an Aaron Rodgers, you've proven

265
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 8: to me that you can go and get a quarterback.

266
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 8: Or someone's always willing to move on from their starting quarterback.

267
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 3: It used to be not that way. They'd keep those.

268
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 8: Guys and contracts would run out if there were no

269
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 8: good But now people trade for quarterbacks and they move

270
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 8: on from quarterbacks and elite type quarterbacks.

271
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna take our first break.

272
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 6: When we come back, We're gonna talk a little bit

273
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 6: about the NFL, particularly the NFC. I'm gonna have these

274
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 6: guys rank in order the top seven teams in the

275
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 6: NFC and where Dallas falls in that rankle when we

276
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 6: come back, Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio.

277
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,720

279
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 10: Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought online was

280
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 10: reliable and now Todd is trying to be faster than

281

282

284
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,320

347
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:36,920

348
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 6: make this a weekly thing because this NFC is really

349
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 6: interesting to me. But I want you guys to take

Speaker 6: New Orleans, Seattle, Dallas, and Minnesota. Put them in order,

358
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 6: top to bottom.

00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 3: Did you put New Orleans in there? Yeah? Okay, I'm sorry.

362
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're leading their division.

363
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 3: Selective listening right now as we speak.

364
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 8: Philadelphia, San Francisco, Detroit, Dallas, Seattle, Minnesota, New Orleans.

365
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 2: Wait, that was your order, That was my order. I'm sorry,

366
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 2: I say it again. You need it fast. You already

367
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: had this written now, you had yell doing this on

368
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 2: the show later.

369
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no way.

370
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 8: I just took advantage of when everybody was talking to

371
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:37,359
Speaker 8: look at these teams. Uh, Philadelphia, Yeah, San Francisco got it, Detroit, Dallas, Seattle,

372
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 8: Minnesota on a heater right now?

373
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 3: And New Orleans.

374
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 4: The interesting thing interesting?

375
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 2: I like that.

376
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 6: The interesting thing to stand out there is Detroit third.

377
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 6: That was interesting. Yeah, and then also, uh, you got

378
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 6: New Orleans behind Minnesota?

379
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 2: No, did you get I have Minnesota.

380
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 3: I have Minnesota ahead of New Orleans.

381
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 6: Right, that's also kind of interesting because Minnesota doesn't have

382
00:16:58,680 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 6: their quarterback, but they got Josh Job.

383
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 2: Now they're playing the Cowboy.

384
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 3: They're playing great right now.

385
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 8: I mean, but if you're talking, if you're talking about yeah,

386
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 8: you'll probably see them.

387
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 3: In the playoffs.

388
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 2: Ye right, No, that dude, man, I don't know. I

389
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 2: don't even know what to think of.

390
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 8: But they're they're playing, they're playing really well. I mean,

391
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 8: if you look at what they're doing defensively, they're finding ways.

392
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 8: They're playing without their their leading wide receiver too in

393
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 8: that game of these games, so it's crazy they figured

394
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 8: some things out up there.

395
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 2: And traded their guard.

396
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 8: Like I mean, it's it's like they went from being

397
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 8: like give up mode to like, well, maybe we can

398
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 8: find a way to win the NFC North. Yeah, you know,

399
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 8: but I think I think Detroit is really I don't

400
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 8: think Detroit gets nearly enough credit for me. I I

401
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 8: kind of feel like that people always talk about Philadelphia

402
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 8: and San Francisco Detroit is a team that you don't

403
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 8: I don't think you want to play and you're going

404
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 8: to catch them at the very end, and you know

405
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 8: they might be playing for positioning and seeding and all

406
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 8: that whould be a difficult game to begin with. But

407
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 8: that is a physical, mean, nasty team and they got

408
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 8: a quarterback that doesn't turn the all over. You know

409
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 8: they got they got run by the Ravens. I think

410
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 8: the Ravens might be the best team in the NFL.

411
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 8: I mean the way that they pay are against NFC teams. Yeah,

412
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 8: they blasted Seattle, they blasted Detroit. You know that division

413
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 8: they play in too. Cincinnati is getting better. So yeah,

414
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 8: that doesn't talk about what we're dealing with right now.

415
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 8: But that that that AFC North is uh has got

416
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 8: some got some.

417
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 3: Teeth to it.

418
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 11: Ye.

419
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go because just like last week, I had

420
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 4: the struggle of Seattle versus is Detroit, and I'm just

421
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,360
Speaker 4: gonna use the Baltimore game as a wash from both

422
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 4: of those teams. Lions got walked by the Baltimore Ravens

423
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 4: and the Seattle Seahawks got walked by the Baltimore Ravens.

424
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 4: So that keeps me at Seattle ahead of Lions. So

425
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 4: let's go this way. Let's go Philadelphia. I want to

426
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 4: say it, so I'm going to say it. Philadelphia, Seattle, Dallas, Detroit,

427
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 4: San Francisco, and.

428
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 3: San Francisco ran you you.

429
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 4: Did, yeah, but they're also completely faced down in the

430
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 4: mud right now that they need to write their ship.

431
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 3: You can get all those guys back, and it's gonna be.

432
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 4: Right back to where until it happens, it hasn't happened.

433
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,439
Speaker 4: He threw me off. So I got Philadelphia. Who is

434
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:27,360
Speaker 4: the Philadelphia, Seattle, Dallas, Detroit. I'm sorry, see y'all throw

435
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 4: me off? God, Philadelphia, Seattle, San Francisco, Dallas, Okay.

436
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 2: Okay, that makes more sense. Okay, San Francisco third, Okay,

437
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 2: I got.

438
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 4: I got Dallas, then Detroit, then Detroit, then Minnesota, then

439
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 4: New Orleans. All right, let's do it that way.

440
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 2: All right, that makes sense.

441
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 4: Throwing me off?

442
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 6: You really threw me put in San Francis. I got

443
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,120
Speaker 6: a fifth. I was like, wow, that was.

444
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 4: I think that was one of those things where your

445
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,719
Speaker 4: brain is saying something, but your your processing so your

446
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 4: mouth said something else. Why y'all pause?

447
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, that's that just threw me and Brian off

448
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 2: a second, like.

449
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 4: Because Brian had the selective listening and then I had

450
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 4: the brain forart.

451
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 8: Okay, cool, all right, I'll tell you what. I'll say

452
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 8: this about San Francisco. They're gonna get those guys back. Yeah,

453
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 8: it's gonna be No, we'll see if the quarterback could play.

454
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 8: That's that's where this single come down to.

455
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 2: We are putting to them.

456
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 6: Now it's starting to get some doubt in his mind

457
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 6: because he hadn't had any reality exactly where you start

458
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 6: to make a quarterback question his own abilities.

459
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 2: And now we'll see how that how he was?

460
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 4: You were we the ones having the conversation walking up

461
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 4: to the press box, just off the conversation about Seattle

462
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,959
Speaker 4: versus San Francisco, and I was saying, I felt like

463
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 4: if San Francisco had to go to Seattle in the

464
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 4: playoffs to win that game, I don't think they win

465
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 4: that game.

466
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 6: No, we did not have that conversation, and I would

467
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 6: vehemently disagree with you. Okay, I think San Francisco runs

468
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 6: that division. I honestly believe San Francisco.

469
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 4: I think they they run it until further notice. But

470
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 4: I think that Seattle was ready to change that. It

471
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 4: feels like Seattle is ready to change that.

472
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 6: I still, for some reason, I still think of Seattle

473
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 6: as a good team that's not quite there to be

474
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:03,919
Speaker 6: one of the best in division.

475
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 4: Which is why I would say this is what the

476
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 4: key is at home in the playoffs. If they have

477
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 4: to go to San Francisco, Seattle loses that game. But

478
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 4: if you factor in the twelfth man in that environment

479
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 4: and the Seattle Seahawks, I think that's a game that

480
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 4: the forty nine is lose. I I would love to

481
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 4: see it.

482
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, honestly, the first round of the playoffs,

483
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,120
Speaker 6: I fully expect San Francis is gonna win that division.

484
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 6: So it's gonna be Dallas and Seattle kind of there

485
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 6: and four, five and six slots.

486
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 2: I think that's my opinion.

487
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, I do believe that because I think San Francisco

488
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 6: is gonna get their guys back, and when they get

489
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 6: their guys back, they're going to get on that roll again.

490
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 6: And by the way, just look at what San Francisco does.

491
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 6: They do this every year. There's a moment in this

492
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 6: season where everybody's like, oh man, san Francisco's got problems.

493
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,400
Speaker 6: Then and usually it's because of injury, and sure enough

494
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 6: they get it back on the right track. And when

495
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,440
Speaker 6: they get it going, then it's kind of like, oh yeah,

496
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 6: we all should have known.

497
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 4: This is still getting it in my gud and much

498
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 4: like the love I have for the Lions are doing it.

499
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 4: I'm right there with Brian. This one with the Lions.

500
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 4: Something in my good just makes me feel like Seattle's

501
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 4: got something for whoever if someone has to go to

502
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 4: Seattle for a playoff game.

503
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 2: I'm just not there yet on them, not there yet

504
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 2: on them?

505
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 4: All right, ab what you got?

506
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 7: No? No, I did, I did, I did, have plenty

507
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 7: of time, and I just keep going. I'm just I'll

508
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 7: be honest. I'm unprofessional sometimes because it's hard to it's

509
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 7: hard to take sometimes.

510
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:35,479
Speaker 3: Oh okay, like right now, because I wanted to make

511
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 3: sure I heard your ya.

512
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 7: Because it's hard, I wouldn't say unprofessional. Let me say unbiased.

513
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 7: Opinion is actually the right word. I'm very professional. So

514
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:50,199
Speaker 7: I take that back, it's unbiased. But my thing is

515
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 7: I'm having So I put Vikings first, Eagles second.

516
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 2: Wait, huh what yeah, Vikings at the top team in

517
00:22:59,200 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 2: the NFC.

518
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 7: I put them ahead. Yeah, Okay, your opinion, unbiased opinion

519
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 7: would be Eagles first, bias, just first. And they're still

520
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 7: I still they're a great team. Okay, we've seen it,

521
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 7: but every game lately has been so close that I

522
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 7: just feel like at some point somebody else is going

523
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 7: to figure it out and beat them and get them.

524
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 7: So it's that's what.

525
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 3: It's Buffalo or Kansas City.

526
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,880
Speaker 6: But you know that's that's actually an interesting that's an

527
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 6: interesting thought because I've I've seen people talking about this

528
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 6: in circles on social media, and to me, I actually

529
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 6: look at that as a positive for Philadelphia because I'm like, if.

530
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 2: You tell me you've gone eight and one and you.

531
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 6: Still haven't played your best football, that says to me

532
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 6: that you have a team that number one never gets rattled.

533
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 6: You know how to figure it out in bad situations,

534
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 6: even when you're not playing your best football. You figure

535
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 6: out how can we still get the win. It probably

536
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 6: means you know how to win in a lot of

537
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 6: different ways because you've been presented with different situations where

538
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 6: some week it has to be your offense has to

539
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 6: take the lead, some weeks, your defense has to take

540
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 6: the lead, some weeks, your special teams that whatever it is.

541
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 6: They're figuring out how to win even in situations where

542
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 6: they probably shouldn't win the game. And that's where I like,

543
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 6: I'm looking at that and I'm like, that scares me

544
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 6: more about Philadelphia than if they were just running through teams.

545
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:29,400
Speaker 7: And it's fair high. It's that whole glass glass half full,

546
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 7: half empty, depending on their perspective. I'm choosing the other

547
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 7: one half empty type of mentality. Were you gonna say something,

548
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 7: let's just.

549
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,639
Speaker 8: Ask you something real quick though, Guys about that. Okay,

550
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 8: Philadelphia has the ability, like when they're not playing great

551
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 8: to put games away. Is that opposite of what the

552
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:47,400
Speaker 8: Cowboys are?

553
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 6: Well, there's only really been there's only really been that year.

554
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 8: Does that Does that make you nervous that your team

555
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 8: doesn't have that ability right now?

556
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing.

557
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 6: You've had really two games where you've been challenged through

558
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 6: the end of the game. One of them you won,

559
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 6: one of them you lost, right. All the other games

560
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 6: either you killed the other team or they killed you, right,

561
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 6: So it's like, do you have you really seen that?

562
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 6: Do the Cowboys have the ability to finish a game

563
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 6: when they're right there?

564
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 8: I think Philadelphia's plan was to make Dallas keep playing.

565
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 8: You know what I'm saying, that they'll make a mistake

566
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,639
Speaker 8: that you know, Philadelphia down the stretch was nails where

567
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 8: Dallas fell apart.

568
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 4: Well, it almost worked against them because they were nails

569
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 4: until they fell apart, which is what extended the potential

570
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 4: game when driving the first Yeah, the both teams fell apart.

571
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 8: But Philadelphia's falling apart like three times this season and

572
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 8: they won all the games.

573
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 3: Right, That's what I'm saying. When you fall apart, you're

574
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 3: not going to win.

575
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 8: Arizona fell apart in that game, really though, right, Yeah,

576
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 8: I mean really never had a chance.

577
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 4: Right, So in the games that you had a chance

578
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 4: going down to the wire.

579
00:25:55,320 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 6: Only won one, lost one, right, I mean, I don't

580
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 6: get again, I don't think any of the games.

581
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 3: Trust you trust this team down the stretch. You really

582
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 3: to finish a game to go get a win.

583
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 4: I trust the defense to do so. If it's if

584
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 4: it comes down to it and the defense is on

585
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 4: the field, yes, I trust that they can get that.

586
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 4: With the offense.

587
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,719
Speaker 3: You don't try, okay, but you don't trust the offense.

588
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 4: The offense still has to show it because the defense

589
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,439
Speaker 4: and that one in one record. The defense is who

590
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 4: closed it out. That's who I have the trust in.

591
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 4: The offense didn't close it out. The offense made a

592
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 4: mistake false start allowing the sack. So right now, until

593
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 4: the offense shows it, no, I don't in the offense

594
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:30,919
Speaker 4: and the defense, yes, I do. So it just depends

595
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 4: on who's on the field right now. I don't.

596
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 8: It bothers me that they didn't finish that game. I mean,

597
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 8: it completely bothers me. And and I don't know if

598
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 8: that's man. Maybe it's something we've seen. They get down

599
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 8: in the red zone, they get down tight red zone.

600
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 8: They've had problems all year. You know, are they going

601
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 8: to fix those problems keep cost them games?

602
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 7: And Dyke played a really good game. And but it's

603
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 7: one of those things that you tend to always criticize,

604
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,959
Speaker 7: you know, you put it all on the quarterback. So

605
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 7: and we started I mentioned it you. I'm like, okay,

606
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 7: this is a time where Dak needs to show up.

607
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 7: And then let me in my head and this is

608
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 7: not a fair comparison, but I'm like, man, imagine you

609
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 7: having Rogers and he's in that situation right now. You

610
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 7: just take the automatic like you just automatically assume you're

611
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 7: gonna walk out of that game with a win. We

612
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 7: have plenty of time to get in there. And what's crazy,

613
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:25,640
Speaker 7: I thought the Cowboys will only have the last chance

614
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 7: to do it, and then they came back again for

615
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 7: a second chance to actually get into the end zone

616
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 7: and it still didn't happen.

617
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 4: So I did to start. But you know why though,

618
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 4: and this goes right back to my point, the way

619
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 4: the defense clamped down in the fourth quarter and forced

620
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 4: more than one punt from the Eagles offense. So if again,

621
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 4: if it came down to it where it was Jalen

622
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 4: Hurts and the Eagles offense trying to mount a game

623
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 4: winning drive against the Cowboys defense in Philadelphia at one hundred,

624
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 4: have confidence, but flip it and it's like, Okay, well,

625
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 4: you know, it's an offense that had struggles for the

626
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 4: first part of the season and now it's an offense

627
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 4: that had some offensive issues. So no, until they show

628
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 4: me that they can close out the game, I can't

629
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 4: rightfully say I believe they can close out the game.

630
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,399
Speaker 4: But the defense has shown it. So that's for me

631
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:09,640
Speaker 4: where I'm hanging my head.

632
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 6: I still go back to like Ambry, I think you

633
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 6: hit the nail on head. For me, there are certain

634
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 6: teams that when you're playing them, you're actually thinking, if

635
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,439
Speaker 6: your team gets a score and it's at the end

636
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 6: of the game, you're like, how much time's left? Like

637
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:26,919
Speaker 6: I don't want to give that offense time to go

638
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 6: down to score, because I know they will go down

639
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 6: to score. Like if you're playing the Chiefs and you

640
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 6: give them a minute and they only need a touchdown

641
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:34,439
Speaker 6: to win, or they need a field goal to win,

642
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 6: You're like, man, we left too much time on the

643
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 6: clockt right, But that's what I'm saying, Like, there are

644
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 6: certain teams that are like that, and I don't want

645
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 6: to confuse it, Like that's never been the conversation that

646
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 6: we've had, Dak, Like that's the difference between a really

647
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 6: good quarterback and the greats in the game right now,

648
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 6: right there are only a few of those that you

649
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 6: feel like, if they get the ball, it's happening, there's

650
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 6: no question about it. But you and I, as we

651
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 6: were sitting there watching the end of that game, we

652
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 6: were both saying, is this Dak's moment to kind of

653
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 6: ascend to that and start showing us that and we

654
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 6: we that wasn't the outcome. In quite frankly, as is

655
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 6: the case a lot of time, I don't think it

656
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 6: was necessarily his fault.

657
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 4: I think it could be.

658
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 6: I think once again, and that's why I say offenses,

659
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 6: because it's not just the quarterback.

660
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 2: In this instance.

661
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,719
Speaker 6: It goes back to like, this was not just about

662
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 6: Dak not making the plays. It was about your offensive

663
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 6: line failing you in a moment when you needed them

664
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 6: to be able to give him time twice to make

665
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 6: the plays that he needed to make in order for

666
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 6: you to win.

667
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 2: That was a problem.

668
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 7: We go back to several a couple of years ago,

669
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 7: and you would go into games where the offense would

670
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 7: have a very slow start, Dak having slow starts, and

671
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 7: then in the second half of games he would come back.

672
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 7: The offense would come back, get their act together and

673
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 7: start scoring points. But it was always a little too late,

674
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 7: like they would get up there, start scoring scoring, scoring,

675
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 7: Oh well, damn, we ran out of time. They didn't

676
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 7: make it. They should have won that game, And I'm

677
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 7: that's where that's that's what I'm tired of. They should

678
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 7: have They should have over here walking I'm not gonna

679
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 7: name names, but walking around. People that come up to me,

680
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 7: we should or want on stop. I don't want to

681
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 7: hear it. I'm pissed off right now. I don't want

682
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 7: to hear anymore. I'm tired of it. But anyways, I

683
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 7: had the Vikings versus Eagles, forty nine Ers, Seattle, New Orleans, Detroit, Dallas.

684
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 7: I don't know where I want to put Dallas because

685
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 7: once again my bias opinion. Right now, I'm mad at them.

686
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 7: I'm up said, I'm hurt. I don't know what to

687
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 7: think of them. I don't I don't know where to

688
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 7: place them because last week I spent all week truly

689
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:44,239
Speaker 7: believing that they were gonna win against the Eagles, and

690
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 7: I set up with my chest all over the place.

691
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 7: I was talking around all like other people that did

692
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 7: not say Cowboys with their chest.

693
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 2: No, I didn't.

694
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 6: I was not confident about that game, and I said

695
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 6: made no Honestly, I said before before we went into

696
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 6: the game, I said, they got to show me after

697
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 6: what happened in San Francisco, they got to show me.

698
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 2: And they still haven't shown me.

699
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 6: And by the way, if I'm doing any rankings for

700
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 6: the NFC, the Cowboys cannot come in right now, before

701
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 6: Philadelphia and San Francisco, because what I've seen in the

702
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 6: games is they have not been able to beat those teams.

703
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 6: And I'll say this, Dallas is a really good team,

704
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 6: and I think up against any team in the NFC,

705
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 6: Dallas will win the game.

706
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 2: Any team in NFC other than.

707
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 6: Those two teams right now, they got to show me

708
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 6: because that's just not been what they've put.

709
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 4: On on the field yet.

710
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 8: And you're gonna get to see Detroit, and you're going

711
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 8: to get to see in Seattle, yep, yeah, yeah, And

712
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 8: then you get a couple of shots some AFC teams

713
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 8: that are right in that same boat of good teams,

714
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 8: and we will find out a lot about this team.

715
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 6: But right now, I think those are the two teams

716
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 6: I look at, and really there's probably only four or

717
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 6: five in the NFL that I think I would put

718
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 6: above the Cowboys right now. But that's also the problem.

719
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 6: They're right up there with those teams. They have not

720
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 6: shown they can beat those teams yet. Like that's the

721
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 6: Kansas City's, the Baltimore's, the the Eagles, the forty nine ers,

722
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 6: Like they haven't showed they can beat those teams yet.

723
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 6: That's what I got to see in order to feel

724
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 6: confident that they can make a deep running.

725
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 4: The thing it's fun though, is that the from three

726
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 4: to i'd say five, those three to five slots margin

727
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 4: of aeras so slit. It is.

728
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 3: The margin of ara of Cowboys offense is very slip.

729
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 4: So, I mean, you got to get any your rankings,

730
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 4: and when you're listening to this, if you're ranking one

731
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 4: through seven, once you get three to five, whatever you're organization,

732
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 4: however you organize it, it's probably gonna make sense. You

733
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 4: could probably justify it, make it makes sense. Yeah, all right,

734
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 4: here we're gonna do. We're gonna take our final break.

735
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 4: When to come back.

736
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 6: We got some big picture questions for you guys. These

737
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 6: may take a lot more time than we have. We'll

738
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 6: maybe float some of those into some future shows. This week,

739
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 6: we're right back Dallas, Cowboys dot Com Radio.

Speaker 2: All Right, here we go.

793
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 6: Here's some big, quick, big picture questions I want you

794
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 6: guys to answer. Let's start with this one. Whose play

795
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 6: is more concerning, Terrence Steele or Michael Gallup.

796
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 4: M I'd say Michael Gallup. Reason I say Michael Gallup

797
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 4: is for the hearkening back to what we were talking

798
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 4: about yesterday, Terrence Steele, when you were having the offensive

799
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 4: line injuries and those issues across that old line, it

800
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 4: was Terrence Steele who was the bright spot over the

801
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 4: majority of the first part of the season going into

802
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,880
Speaker 4: the by That gives me a lot of confidence. That

803
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,760
Speaker 4: combined with his play from last year before he suffers

804
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 4: the twin acl Yeah, he as of late, he's had

805
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 4: two bad days at the offices. Last Sunday was the

806
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 4: worst at the office, But for the most part, I

807
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 4: think he's showing that he can get it together and

808
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 4: keep it together. Michael Gallup, on the other hand, while

809
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 4: physically he's back to where he needs to get. The

810
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,800
Speaker 4: mental side of it is still not consistent enough. For

811
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 4: Michael Gallup. He had a couple of good games Arizona,

812
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 4: New England, the game's prior struggled the games after he struggled.

813
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 4: He had a drop the key drop early against the Eagles,

814
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 4: but then he bounced back. Kudos to him for doing so.

815
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 4: But when you combine that the up and downs of

816
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:34,239
Speaker 4: twenty twenty three with the struggles to find his way

817
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty two, there's not a lot of recent

818
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 4: see positives for Michael Gallup. Talent still there. Absolutely, skill set, physicality, physically,

819
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 4: he's imposing, all of that's still there. But I think

820
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 4: for him it's mentally more than anything else. And that's

821
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,399
Speaker 4: what's concerning. For Terrence Steel. I think he bounces back,

822
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 4: maybe as early as this week.

823
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 8: Kind of feel like it's it is Gallup. But the

824
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 8: thing we've learned about Gallop, it's two good games for

825
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 8: poor games, and that's been his history and so maybe

826
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 8: that's what he is. You know, we felt like that

827
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 8: maybe he could take that next jump. We talked about injury,

828
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 8: him coming back, the off the field stuff he deals with.

829
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,839
Speaker 8: You know, being in the right place, right mind, all

830
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 8: that works extremely hard. But he is who he is,

831
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 8: and that's you know, like I say, you're gonna have

832
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 8: flashing flashes of brilliance those catches he makes that are

833
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,839
Speaker 8: contorted along the sidelines. I don't know how he got

834
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 8: his feet down, but he just did. And then you're

835
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 8: going to have the play where they you know, have

836
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 8: the unfortunate drop. But that's the inconsistency of his game.

837
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 8: Maybe somebody else he gets more consistent, but for this team.

838
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 3: He hasn't been.

839
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 8: What's surprising to me about Steel is what he's dealing with,

840
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 8: you know, coming back from the injury, and he's going to.

841
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 3: Work extremely hard. He's going to be prepared.

842
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 8: His run blocking hasn't been as good as it normally is.

843
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 8: I understand the pass blocking struggles that he has because

844
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 8: that's part of his game, that really, really is part

845
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,920
Speaker 8: of his game, and he does a great job of

846
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 8: masking it at times. But you know, when it when

847
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 8: it rains, it pours on him too. But he's not

848
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 8: been as consistent as a run blocker, and that to

849
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 8: me is the most surprising thing about his game. It's

850
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 8: not what happens to him as a pass blocker, it's

851
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,399
Speaker 8: what happens to him as a run blocker, and it's

852
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:34,240
Speaker 8: but it's gallop. But both of them have had their issues,

853
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 8: as we all know.

854
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 7: I would definitely go with tern Steel because that's the

855
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 7: but I have trust that he can get it together

856
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:49,439
Speaker 7: because it hasn't been a consistent like what we saw

857
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 7: against the Eagles, hasn't been the storyline for his season

858
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 7: coming after that injury, So I don't think it's something

859
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 7: that we're going to be consistently talking about week after

860
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 7: week as the main issue of the old line in general.

861
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 7: I think he'll get better and it was just a one.

862
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 7: You had have one bad day that went really bad

863
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,400
Speaker 7: for you, and it happens. It has happened to a

864
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 7: lot of other people. But I would say the old

865
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 7: line in general, more so than just Staring Steel, just

866
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 7: finding some type of consistency for the old line. We

867
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 7: haven't seen an established running game yet that has not

868
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 7: happened all year, and I think it steams from or

869
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 7: stamps from the old line and what they're doing and

870
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 7: not doing for Tony Poller and the rest of the backs.

871
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,880
Speaker 7: So I think that's that would be the main concern

872
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 7: Michael Gallup again. I don't know if I'm ready to

873
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 7: give up on him as far as I given him chances.

874
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 7: But it's one of those things again my feelings, I'm like,

875
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 7: I'm mad at you. Go sit down for a little bit.

876
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 7: He'll take a break. Go we go to the Yeah, yeah,

877
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 7: go for it, just for a little bit, Just for

878
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,920
Speaker 7: a little bit. I still love you, you know, I

879
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 7: still love you. I'll give you a hug afterwards, but

880
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,359
Speaker 7: take a moment to reflect and we'll we'll come back

881
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,359
Speaker 7: to you. Uh. And because some of the things we've

882
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 7: seen from Tober, he's had those moments, you know. But

883
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 7: it's it's one of those when it's not working. I'm

884
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 7: a big disbeliever or I don't know the right word

885
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 7: of forcing things. I don't think I don't think it

886
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 7: makes it work, but you just keep trying to force

887
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 7: it on people and stuff. He just he's not catching

888
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 7: a break right now. And maybe you give him, you

889
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 7: force him to have a break for a little bit

890
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 7: and then bring him back up. But I would definitely

891
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 7: go with steal right now, just for the moment.

892
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 8: This team needs to focus on on on Lamb ferguson

893
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 8: it Cooks. That needs to be their offense right now. Yep,

894
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 8: they're not going to be able to run the balls.

895
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, they they don't. It's going to be hard.

896
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 8: This team is now you now have it's not a

897
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 8: small sample size anymore.

898
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 3: We're halfway through.

899
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 8: They've got to ride Dak and they've got to ride Lamb,

900
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 8: and they've got to ride Ferguson and the Cooks has

901
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 8: got to find a way when he gets opportunities to

902
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 8: make plays.

903
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:19,840
Speaker 3: That's where they need to go.

904
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 8: Because the other ones, if they get the other ones

905
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 8: to kind of step up, great, But the ones they

906
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 8: need to focus on are the ones that I mentioned.

907
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 6: So going on that, what do you guys think is

908
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 6: the biggest reason that Brandon Cooks hasn't been more involved

909
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 6: in the offense. Do you put it more on him

910
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,840
Speaker 6: and his abilities of getting open? Do you put it

911
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 6: more on the offensive line not getting time or the

912
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 6: play calling not getting him Downfiel getting him into situations

913
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:43,839
Speaker 6: where he's open.

914
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 2: Where do you place most of them?

915
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,879
Speaker 8: They scheme stuff for him and then you know they're

916
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:50,880
Speaker 8: going to run a play where he's it's going to

917
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 8: take some time for him to get from the right

918
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 8: side of the formation to the left side of the formation.

919
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,560
Speaker 8: They're running place to try and get him open. They

920
00:41:57,640 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 8: ran a pick for him the other day on the

921
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 8: goal line to try and get him open.

922
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 3: Uh. They're doing things to try and get him open. Uh.

923
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 3: But then if you have a blitzing.

924
00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:11,320
Speaker 8: Linebacker, Uh, Tyler Biattish unable to handle Jalalen Carter.

925
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 3: And you know, now Dak can't go that way. Uh.

926
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 3: It's really or he or all of.

927
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 8: A sudden, they motioned Tony Pollard out in the flat,

928
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,839
Speaker 8: and now he's trying to find space on a scrambled drill.

929
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 3: But what does he do.

930
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,719
Speaker 8: He runs into Cook who's trying to find space too,

931
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 8: and both of them get eliminated from the play. I

932
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 8: think the coaches are trying to find ways to get

933
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 8: him the ball. I think there are certain certain situations

934
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 8: and things that happened during the play that don't get

935
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,800
Speaker 8: him the ball, and they.

936
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:43,760
Speaker 2: Not necessarily other people.

937
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 4: You can't.

938
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 8: You don't quit on him because he is your best

939
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 8: route runner in my opinion. He's the one guy that

940
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 8: can separate. He's the one guy that can get in

941
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 8: and out of the breaks. He's the one that can

942
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 8: taken They can make the big catch when you need

943
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 8: him to, So keep keep trying to get him the ball.

944
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,360
Speaker 8: It'll actually come to him. But they're dealing with a

945
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,800
Speaker 8: lot of he's dealing with a lot of bad luck

946
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:06,879
Speaker 8: when they're trying to get him the ball.

947
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,839
Speaker 4: Right now, I couldn't have said it better. Not much

948
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 4: to add to that other than just to double down

949
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 4: on it's it's certainly not his lack of separation ability

950
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 4: to get open. He's getting open. The rest is everything

951
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 4: that Brian said.

952
00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 7: I mean, you've made it a point of what game

953
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 7: was that when they kept targeting and speaking of Michael,

954
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 7: what game was it New England?

955
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:38,240
Speaker 4: Was his last game when they targeted Chargers?

956
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,040
Speaker 3: Was it Charger? Charger?

957
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 7: So where I was trying to go with that is you've,

958
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 7: as a play caller, you kind of made it a

959
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 7: point to target him and try to get the ball

960
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,960
Speaker 7: to him. And the reason, the only thing that makes

961
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 7: sense to me as to why they kept going to

962
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,560
Speaker 7: him was because they had some sort of plan that

963
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:03,920
Speaker 7: they were trying to make it happen that day. So

964
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,240
Speaker 7: my thing is like, if they did that with him,

965
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 7: how come you can't do that with the guy like

966
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 7: Cooks and the whole time in wise and all. That

967
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 7: makes some sense, But then why is that an option, like,

968
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 7: if it's not going to give you enough time to

969
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,160
Speaker 7: like go throw it at him, why is that even

970
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 7: an option to begin with?

971
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 8: You know what, I think that to me, I don't

972
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:29,439
Speaker 8: force it. I let it happen because my number two,

973
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:31,480
Speaker 8: my number one and number two options are good enough

974
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 8: to win games. Throwing the lamb and throwing to Ferguson

975
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 8: is good enough for me to win games.

976
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:37,359
Speaker 3: You know, if Cooks.

977
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 8: Gets four targets, three receptions and it's fifty eight yards

978
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 8: and three first.

979
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 3: Downs on the catches, I'm fine with that.

980
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 2: But CD got off, Yeah City, But City.

981
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,240
Speaker 8: Had CD had twelve catches for one hundred and forty

982
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,960
Speaker 8: three yards, and then Ferguson had seven catches for one

983
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:53,720
Speaker 8: hundred yards.

984
00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 3: I'm going to live with that all day.

985
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 6: And the other thing to consider on that point, Brian,

986
00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 6: I think is that when you get deeper into the

987
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:05,759
Speaker 6: seas and when you're gonna have that run of Seattle, Yeah, Dolphins, Buffalo,

988
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 6: you got all these good teams, you're gonna need a

989
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 6: wrinkle that hasn't necessarily shown up in a big way

990
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 6: to win one of those games, maybe two of those games.

991
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 6: And if you haven't used Cooks in that way, you

992
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,799
Speaker 6: can create some opportunities where teams come in because of

993
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 6: what their scouting says. You're trying to get the ball

994
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 6: to CD, you're scheming him open. That could create some

995
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,919
Speaker 6: opportunities for you to scheme open Cooks and go into

996
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:27,839
Speaker 6: a game saying we're going to scheme him open because

997
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 6: they're not really looking for that.

998
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 2: We haven't shown that as much.

999
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:32,319
Speaker 8: If you ask me for a fourth guy to add

1000
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 8: to my I'm going to mix. I'm throwing Turpin in there.

1001
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,239
Speaker 8: Turpin shown to me that he the game is not

1002
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 8: too big for him. I always worried about him not

1003
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,680
Speaker 8: you know, I didn't like the fact he didn't fair

1004
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 8: catch the ball and he you know, time went off

1005
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:46,279
Speaker 8: the clock at the end.

1006
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:47,760
Speaker 3: I think that was kind of a mental mistake.

1007
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 8: But overall, with his ability to run, run after catch,

1008
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 8: you know, get open, get open, you know, to make

1009
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 8: a secure catch, He's now I'm putting him in there. Okay,

1010
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,520
Speaker 8: if if any wonder you others other than the three,

1011
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 8: I need you, but I'm it's gonna be limited, but

1012
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 8: I'm gonna get you when when I do throw you

1013
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 8: the ball, please make a catch for me. You know,

1014
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 8: if I get you two balls and you make two

1015
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 8: catches for two first downs and a and a red

1016
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 8: zone touchdown like like Turpin did.

1017
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,279
Speaker 4: And the toughness, my goodness, how tough is that guy?

1018
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,080
Speaker 8: I am now pairing down my offense to just make

1019
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 8: sure and and it's gonna help Dak. You know, it's

1020
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:25,840
Speaker 8: there's no more questions about Okay, do we have to

1021
00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:27,759
Speaker 8: throw it the goalp No, we don't, because we're gonna

1022
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 8: throw it to Turpin, and we're gonna throw it the lamb,

1023
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 8: and we're gonna throw it to Ferguson because I know

1024
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,320
Speaker 8: those guys are gonna make plays. I don't have time

1025
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 8: to waste it down over here on somebody that might

1026
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 8: not make a play.

1027
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:39,839
Speaker 2: Ye, all right, real quick, let's get to lap cooat

1028
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 2: what we got over there?

1029
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 4: Bring me in.

1030
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:42,440
Speaker 2: Beamer, Yes, science?

1031
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 4: All right? So started and actually finished my deep dive

1032
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:50,839
Speaker 4: into some receiving comparisons around the NFL for the Science Lab.

1033
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 4: This week's edition drops on Thursday. Check that out on

1034
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 4: the dot. Calm, ladies and gentleman. Magic number today is

1035
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,839
Speaker 4: forty eight. We're gonna round down to forty eight. I

1036
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:01,640
Speaker 4: wanted to see how Dak Prescott and Ceedee Lamb as

1037
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 4: a tandem measure up against some of the best tandems

1038
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 4: in the league. And obviously I'm talking about you know,

1039
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 4: Pukah and Cooper and Mike, not Michael, but Matthew, Tua, Tyrek,

1040
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,320
Speaker 4: things like that. Forty eight is the expected points above average.

1041
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 4: For those that aren't familiar with EPA, that's basically saying,

1042
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,520
Speaker 4: prior to a play, this is what the points expected.

1043
00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 4: After the play, this is what the new points expected.

1044
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 4: How valuable was that play in that situation? Ceedee Lamb

1045
00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:29,720
Speaker 4: and Dak Prescott are ranked number three in the entire

1046
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 4: NFL as a tandeman expected points above average? Who's top two?

1047
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 4: Jalen Hurts and aj Brown number one to in Tirek

1048
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,839
Speaker 4: number two. That's some great company to be in. That

1049
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 4: caused me to go a little bit deeper and I

1050
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 4: looked at twelve categories across the league. The Cowboys, as

1051
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 4: far as Dak and Ceedee Lamb lead the league as

1052
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 4: a QB wide receiver tandem in seven of the twelve categories,

1053
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 4: stretching from passer rating, completion percentage, success rate, yards per attempt. So,

1054
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 4: if you're wondering if cedd Lamb had ascended as wide

1055
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 4: receiver one, if you're wondering if the chemistry between he

1056
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:07,720
Speaker 4: and Dak Prescott have reached that upper echelon of the NFL,

1057
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:12,319
Speaker 4: the answer definitively is yes, it is, absolutely so keep going,

1058
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 4: Dak Prescott ceedee. Lamb goes to everything Brian and Derek

1059
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 4: and Ambar talking about feed the Lamb, feed the Lamb,

1060
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:20,959
Speaker 4: and feed them good. All right?

1061
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:22,480
Speaker 7: Can I say something quick?

1062
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:24,319
Speaker 2: Just well, what are you gonna say?

1063
00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,680
Speaker 7: Nice defense? I'm not talking to you. No, I just

1064
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,920
Speaker 7: gotta I gotta text with someone that's listening. And apparently,

1065
00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 7: in my dumb joke didn't translate into when I said

1066
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:37,359
Speaker 7: Vikings first. There's a reason why I said Vikings first

1067
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 7: ahead of the Eagles. I was just being dumb about it,

1068
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,359
Speaker 7: but I don't know if you translated to the I'm

1069
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,040
Speaker 7: not that stupid, but I just wanted to clarify because

1070
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:47,920
Speaker 7: apparently some people didn't get my The.

1071
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,800
Speaker 3: Longer you do this, the more you don't pay attention

1072
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:50,760
Speaker 3: to right exactly.

1073
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,080
Speaker 2: You're like, if you don't get it, you don't get it.

1074
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,160
Speaker 2: You know, you know you know right, So if your

1075
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:57,840
Speaker 2: head all right, we appreciate you. Guys.
