1
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: The following He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Are you ready for

3
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 1: a break? Yes? Are you ready for a break? Absolutely

4
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: ready for a break? Yeah, And so much for that.

5
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: It's time for the Break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com

6
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: with Nick Eatman, David Hellman, and Bar Garcia and Derek Eagleton. Well,

7
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: it must be the twenty twenty season here for the

8
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, because things certainly change really quickly around here.

9
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: Yesterday wasn't really that fun town going around here. It

10
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 1: was pretty cold. Now it's a beautiful day, it's still

11
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: the break. And I know it's episode fifty five because

12
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: yesterday it was fifty four. I'm Nick Eatman, Amber Garcia,

13
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: David Hellman, Derek not with this today. But this is

14
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 1: the fun Town RV tailgate at the Tostitos Championship Plaza

15
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 1: and a lot more fun than yesterday. If it's a nice,

16
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: beautiful day, you got people out here on the field,

17
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: you know, and we're at the Star at the Tostitos Plaza. Actually,

18
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: like you probably want to be out here today as

19
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 1: opposed to yesterday. We're just adapting on the fly. Man

20
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: I love it. It was actually weird to see nobody

21
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 1: out here because usually this is a this is a

22
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: spot where a lot of kids will come and play.

23
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 1: And I don't know what the school situation is. I guess,

24
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: you know, some kids. Hopefully we don't get a ball.

25
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, beyond alert, beyond high alert. Yeah yeah, this

26
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: is there's a little soccer game going on here. But anyways,

27
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: this is a fun place to to to be if

28
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: you want to, you know, if you want to come

29
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: out and enjoy this whole Star district here, all the

30
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: restaurants and all this um. You know, this isn't just

31
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: a nice area here for in Frisco. And uh, this

32
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: is a it's a beautiful day. I actually we couldn't

33
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: said this yesterday. This is this is what I like.

34
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: This is what they had in mind over here, Jeffreies

35
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: who got this together here for the rvtail GA. This

36
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: is exactly what they thought. This is what I think

37
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: about when I think about like a Friday during football season. Yes,

38
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: the weather is gorgeous. It's the last day of the

39
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: you know, the last day you really got to work

40
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: football on all weekend. You can wear a hoodie Halloween

41
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: just forget about the global pandemic and the very bad

42
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys team that we're about to talk about, and life's

43
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: still pretty good. You know, That's kind of my point.

44
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: Speaking of Halloween, and Jerry Jones said in his uh

45
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 1: in his radio hit today on one to five dot

46
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: three The Fan, he said, you know, it's his favorite holiday.

47
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: He said he loves the tricks of bad comments on

48
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: Twitter that I love tricks. I think he was referring

49
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:50,959
Speaker 1: to trick plays. I wouldn't be surprised. I mean, going

50
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: up to Philadelphia with a seventh round rookie quarterback, who

51
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: I think what he throw? How many pass does you

52
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: throw on Sunday three? Yeah, yeah, I think pull out

53
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: all the stops, Jerry, I don't think you're given anything away.

54
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: If that's what you were hinting at, I think people

55
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: kind of already guessed that. All right, let's get to

56
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,519
Speaker 1: that part. Andy Dalton's status you just said, Ben de

57
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 1: Nucci's probably gonna start so based off of what Mike

58
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 1: McCarthy said, and he was on the radio for the

59
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: Fan this morning and then he talked to the media,

60
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 1: it seemed like a different tone in just an hour

61
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: and a half because earlier this morning about seven am,

62
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: it was we'll see, we'll see what happens on Saturday,

63
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: and doesn't look like there's a lot of scene going on. Well,

64
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: McCarthy does his Friday morning radio hit at like six thirty,

65
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: and you know that's when they're just getting to work,

66
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: so he's got two or three hours to meet with

67
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: the trainers And how's Andy Field? Not good? Okay? Cool?

68
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: And that's the great thing about Jerry too, is he's like, yeah,

69
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 1: Andy will be ready next week. He's like, okay, cool,

70
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: we can just dispense with the fake drama. Like I

71
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: think from the moment Andy got hit on Sunday, you

72
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: probably should have been like, he will not be back

73
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: against Philly. So I don't expect him to play. I

74
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: don't know if he's going to travel. Typically, I feel

75
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: like guys with concussions probably don't. You probably don't want

76
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: to put that strain on him, you know. I think

77
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: I think he actually will because I think this is

78
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: gonna come down to not practicing a whole week, Like like,

79
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: I don't think he'll be ready to play, but I

80
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: mean they had to get this other guy ready to play,

81
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: and because of that, it's not just a This isn't

82
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 1: just Dack to Dalton. This is Dalton to Denucci, and

83
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,799
Speaker 1: you've got to figure out all these, you know, different things.

84
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: I mean, there's probably doing a lot of different things

85
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 1: to get him ready. So the whole offense has changed

86
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 1: this week, I would imagine. So therefore, I bet you

87
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: Dalton maybe goes. He maybe even is active, But I

88
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: don't think he plays. That's going to be very surprising.

89
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: I mean, and I don't know much about concussions, Like

90
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: how do you fully evaluate that. It's such a they've

91
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: got a they call it a protocol because it's a

92
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,039
Speaker 1: whole battery of tests. Yeah, it's something very very um

93
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: you have to be very careful with that and what

94
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 1: it implies. So I just don't unless you know for

95
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: sure that he would be able to be on the field,

96
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: there's no reason to make him travel at all, And

97
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: especially with all this COVID stuff, I don't think that

98
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 1: they I mean they take the path is this an

99
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 1: Eatman special? Like, oh no, it really isn't, because I

100
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 1: don't know. I would be kind of shocked if he's active.

101
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: Just again, I mean, if why give him a jersey

102
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: if he can't go into the game and Okay, you

103
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: know what, again, I'm just speculating maybe he's not even

104
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: maybe he just travels and maybe he's not active. Yeah,

105
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: I mean if they feel and again, like Amber said,

106
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: like you, no, two concussions are the same. And you know,

107
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: if he's if he's still not feeling great, maybe you

108
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: don't want to put him on an airplane and subject

109
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: him to all of that. But like, if he feels

110
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: fine and it's really just the safety aspect of it

111
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: and not his own symptoms, then maybe he goes. And

112
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: you know it definitely if he's available to go and

113
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: be a veteran voice for the Nuchi to listen to it,

114
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: I mean that makes a ton of I don't mean

115
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: to bash your question, but why does it matter? What

116
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 1: do you mean? Why does it matter? I mean, why

117
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: are we here trying to guess, well, who are your

118
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 1: three quarterbacks that are going to the game, because they've

119
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: taken three quarterbacks to every game this year, every game,

120
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: even Garrett Gilbert last week was there, So who are

121
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 1: the three quartermin But if he can't play, he can't play. Well,

122
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: I'm saying who. I still think he travels though, I

123
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 1: think he travels I don't know if he can go.

124
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: I would I would support that because Ben needs all

125
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: the help he can get. You know, another thing that

126
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: Jerry said this week or said today, was about this game.

127
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: The trade deadline is next week. He said, nothing is

128
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: gonna nothing from this game is going to affect what

129
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 1: happens in the trade deadline. Now, hey, maybe that's a trick.

130
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 1: Maybe he has a trade trick, a piss leave or something.

131
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. Okay, I don't want to I

132
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,559
Speaker 1: don't want to heap I don't want to heap fuel

133
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: onto that fire, but like it's funny in retrospect the

134
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: things that you were remember because I remember in twenty eighteen,

135
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: they played Washington and I remember hearing while we were

136
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: already like we were at FedEx Field, and somebody kind

137
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 1: of whispered to me like, don't be like, don't be

138
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: surprised if there's some movement when we get back to Dallas,

139
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: like you know, this team needs a wide receiver. Just

140
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: have that on your radar. And I was like really,

141
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: And they did it before we even got back from Washington, So, um,

142
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: may I mean maybe, but I tend to doubt it.

143
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: I don't and to that point. To Jerry's point is like,

144
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: you know what this team is right now, Like, what

145
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: can they teach you something new on Sunday that's going

146
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: to prompt you to go out and do some crazy deal.

147
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: I don't think I buy that, do you? No? No, Well,

148
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: what if what if it's the other way? I mean

149
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: I hate to say, like what if they win, but

150
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: I mean like if they if they do end up

151
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: winning the game, which and we're going to talk about

152
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: our picks later. And I don't know if if you

153
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: guys are even thinking that that's close to happening. But

154
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: does that change your thought process or Jerry's thought process

155
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: of like, all right, because you win, you're you're in

156
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 1: first place, do they want to add to this and say,

157
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: all right, let's let's do something here, try to to

158
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: you know, make this better. I wouldn't, at least not again,

159
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: like not like drastic resources again. You know we've kind

160
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: of talked about this is if you can trade for

161
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: a guy who's still on his rookie deal, who's under

162
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: club control, who he can be a part of the

163
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: future and the present. That is a narrow group of players.

164
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: By the way, that's not that's not that is a

165
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: that's like five guys. Um, I don't. I mean, okay,

166
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: let's say they win in there in first place, Andy

167
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: Dalton comes back next week, Like your offensive line is

168
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: still a mess. You don't You're not going to have

169
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 1: your tackles for the rest of the year. Um, I get.

170
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: I mean, if the defense just plays like Doomsday on

171
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: Sunday night, maybe I'll have to change my mind. But

172
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: but I like, but does anybody, even if they win,

173
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: does anybody believe the defense is just gonna look great now,

174
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: because then then they they're just gonna pour it in

175
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 1: on how bad the Eagles really are? Sure? I mean,

176
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: and like, it's like you just be a bad Eagle team.

177
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: Get give it your best effort. I mean in this

178
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: bad division, I like, I'm tanking's dumb. Give it your

179
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: best effort if you can. But that doesn't mean you

180
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: have to spend valuable resources on a season that's probably

181
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: not gonna go worng. Like I said not too long ago,

182
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: I mean, okay, cool, you won the NFC East title,

183
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,959
Speaker 1: But then where those that get you once you start

184
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: facing the other opponents. I mean, there's, like you mentioned, Dave,

185
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: there are so many different aspects that are wrong with

186
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: this team right now that let's say, a simple trade

187
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: that's not there, I just cannot see it. It's not

188
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: going to fix all the issues, and it's it's tough

189
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: and not to be pessimistic, and yes, you want to

190
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: keep the hope alive and keep fighting, keep pushing, but

191
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 1: at the same time, it's just it's very hard to

192
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: visualize that right now. Yeah, I think I think any

193
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 1: kind of trade that comes up next week is a

194
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: trade that would happen if you were you know, five

195
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: in two or I mean, like it have to would

196
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: just work regardless of the situation. Like you said, I mean,

197
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: there's not many guys that most of the league thinks,

198
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: oh he's he's still he's got a lot of value,

199
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: but his own team really doesn't. He's kind of given up.

200
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: That's what happened sort of with Amari Cooper. I mean,

201
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: it was like everyone thought he was still other than

202
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 1: the Raiders, everyone thought, oh he can still play. That

203
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 1: was also that was a unique circumstance where John Gruden,

204
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: he signed a ten year contract and was like, all right,

205
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get rid of these guys that don't fit

206
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: what I want my team to be and I don't

207
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: know if there's a team that fits that mold right

208
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: now in the NFL landscape. So I fans wanted it

209
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: to be Dallas, well, you know for and I mean that, Okay,

210
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: I don't buy that either, But I don't think there's

211
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: a big money guy on this team that could fetch

212
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 1: you a price that would make it worth it. Yeah,

213
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 1: you know, I was gonna say this yesterday too. And

214
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: a lot of our fans understand the salary cap. I mean,

215
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 1: because it's it's not an easy thing to understand, but

216
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: like you can't just there's a lot of fans that

217
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: do not that. They think that if you just trade

218
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: a player, you're getting rid of his contract, like oh,

219
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: you know, like just get rid of Zeke or get

220
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: rid of d Law. They don't understand that that money

221
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,719
Speaker 1: goes automatically on your cap. You can't. You take the hit,

222
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: not the other team. They just take the salary. You

223
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: take all the hit that you gave them, all this

224
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 1: guaranteed money. There's no way you can trade d Law

225
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: or Zeke, not him or anything right now. I mean,

226
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: if you just absolutely you're no way. Fans or butts

227
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: he's got to be off my team. You could do it.

228
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: But now you're trading Zeke Elliott for a third round

229
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: pick and incurring that dead money on your cap and

230
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: you get you get a third round pick out of No,

231
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: that's not rather just give him. That's that's you trying

232
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 1: to get rid of the like better ish player on

233
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: your roster. You know, for someone else like you, you

234
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 1: need to create some type of balance. I mean, what

235
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: are you going to trade him for? That's really I

236
00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: am not bought into this whole, like, oh, ze career

237
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 1: is going downhill type of Trent. But I think it's

238
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: just just like everyone else on this team, they're just

239
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 1: having issues right now. But I agree, I agree with you.

240
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: But between between what their salaries are and what they're like,

241
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: you know, what they would do to your salary cap

242
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: if you traded them, and what they've put on the field,

243
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: you're just not gonna get that much. And there's one

244
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: guy on this team that would fetch you a heavy price.

245
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: His name's Dak Prescott, and he wouldn't do it right

246
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 1: now because he's recovering from that injury. Like I just,

247
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: I just don't think they're in a beneficial situation. In

248
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: that regard. Right now, I don't even think Zach Martin

249
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 1: could get you. I mean maybe I'm not saying you

250
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: would trade him, but I mean, what could you get

251
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 1: for Zach Martin? First round pick maybe, yeah, late first

252
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: best guard in football who's still like in his prime. Maybe,

253
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: But it gets like, but why are you doing? That's

254
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: already somebody just like right now tuned in and said,

255
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 1: would you trade that? No, we're not. We're talking about

256
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 1: We're talking about that nobody's tradeable. At the risk of

257
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: sounding like a Sunshine pumper, I think I said this

258
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 1: on our affiliate on one oh five point three earlier

259
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: this week, is like, I think this team reminds me

260
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: of the eighteen forty nine ers more than a team

261
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: that just needs to absolutely blow everything up. Like the

262
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: Niners lost Garoppolo and a bunch of other guys early

263
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,320
Speaker 1: in that season, and they had an awful year, and

264
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,079
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what happens when you lose that many guys.

265
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: But they turned around. They drafted Nick Bosa two overall,

266
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: they added a bunch of other talent, and they got

267
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl the next year. Now I'm not

268
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: suggesting the Cowboys will get to the super Bowl next year.

269
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: I need proof of that. But like Jerry said it today,

270
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: like the core of this roster is still pretty good.

271
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,319
Speaker 1: They just need to a clean up some things, deal

272
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: with some talent issues perpeted, most notably on defense. And

273
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,839
Speaker 1: there's also the freaking health. There's also the intangible, the attitude,

274
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: the motivation, the working as a team, because that needs

275
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 1: some work. All of that is very real, but it's

276
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: also very fixable. I think this season twoy fifteen for me. Yeah,

277
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: just the fact that like this team was bad early

278
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 1: before you know, it was bad, and then it got

279
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: really bad with it with without a quarterback. Do you

280
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: get a high draft pick? You get a high well

281
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: I would say you get a high second round pick,

282
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: but they didn't really use it because Ja that didn't play.

283
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: But I mean you you can get some some players

284
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: and next thing you know, you get these tackles back

285
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: and everything. I think next year could be really good.

286
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: I hate talking like that. We're you know, we say

287
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 1: that every freaking year, like no, no, no, every oh

288
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: next year is we don't know that for sure, we

289
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 1: don't know. I think this, I think this team would

290
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 1: have been a good football team. I really do this year.

291
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: I mean, like, at what point they lost to the Rams?

292
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: I think the Rams are a good team, But but

293
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: at what point do you draw that? I agree with you,

294
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: But at what point do you draw that line? Like

295
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: that goes back to the whole they were. You know,

296
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: they didn't have Lyle Collins, but they were watermelon kick

297
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: away from losing to Atlanta, who is not a good

298
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: football team. They got destroyed maybe no, no, no they're not.

299
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: They're not. They got destroyed by the Browns, which you

300
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: know they were already hurt then, but they still had Dak.

301
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 1: I think they were probably a middling football team before

302
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: all of the injuries happened, and now they're just not

303
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: all right. Good, We're gonna we're gonna take our first

350
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 1: a big sucker game that we had out here is gone.

351
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: It's just like yesterday. Other than the sunshine, I got

352
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 1: Dave Amber, I'm Nick even An, We've got Derek Eagleton. Uh,

353
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:21,719
Speaker 1: what's up? You just you couldn't bear to to not

354
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: be with us? You got Actually, what what happened was

355
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: our producer Chris Bean hit me up. I was listening.

356
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: He hit me up in the first segment and said,

357
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 1: can you say you guys? And I was like, yeah, whatever,

358
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: you guys, eat, I'm here for you saying. I thought

359
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: you were about to say something serious and real, so

360
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: so I decided I jump on. I mean, I've heard

361
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 1: of throwing someone under our bus. You just threw Chris

362
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 1: under the RV here that he's in here working. Wow,

363
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: how's it going? I missed you guys. I missed you guys.

364
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: I was ready to get back on the air, you know,

365
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: so I was. You know what I thought, really, Derek?

366
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: I thought, you know you you you and I both

367
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: we we like to pick the Blue and Silver team

368
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: usually when it when it works. I thought maybe that

369
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: you didn't want to pick the other team, so you

370
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: just decided not to be on the show. Oh no,

371
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 1: I was gonna put it on Twitter or somewhere that

372
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: I'm not picking the Cowboys this week. So I'm sorry,

373
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,439
Speaker 1: I'm killing the final segment. But it's okay. I just

374
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 1: can't do it. I just can't do it, not this week,

375
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 1: not just week. I can't do it. Well, I mean

376
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: nobody can. I mean, I mean, yeah, you're not gonna

377
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is my point. Who's the

378
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,879
Speaker 1: Eagles quarterback? Wentz? Okay? Well, I mean it's easy. I mean,

379
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: if you don't, if you don't really say who the

380
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 1: quarterback is, and if it is it's a seventh round

381
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: pick who's never started a game, the disrespect for Nuci Maine, right,

382
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean I've already heard your score.

383
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm not gonna pick the Cowboys to win.

384
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: But it doesn't even smell like a touchdown. No, but

385
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 1: like it's it's you know, I was talking about this

386
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: on Twitter yesterday, like in time, like you can either

387
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 1: be miserable about the current situation or you can just

388
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,199
Speaker 1: embrace it and try to find the fun in it.

389
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 1: And it is fun that a kid, you know, a

390
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: seventh round rookie from Pennsylvania is going to have a

391
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 1: chance to go up and start against the Eagles if

392
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: he you know, if he's not good and they get killed,

393
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 1: well that's kind of what you expected. If But but

394
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: if he's amazing, and you know, even if they don't win,

395
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 1: maybe he plays great and and that's a cool story.

396
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 1: So now you just got to find the fun. Now

397
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 1: that we're talking about de Nucci, I wanted to bring

398
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 1: this up. I don't know if it's just me or

399
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 1: if you guys maybe are getting that same feeling too.

400
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 1: But I feel like after hearing from starting last week,

401
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: after hearing the way that players have been speaking about

402
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 1: the quarterback for some reason, I feel like they somehow

403
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: back up Bend Nucci a lot more than Andy Dalton.

404
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 1: Do you get that feeling they're gonna run over there?

405
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: If there's just there's like a different dynamic about it,

406
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: the way they have been responding. On my head, it

407
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 1: seems to me that they like the Nucci better than

408
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton. You're you're always trying to stoke controversy. I'm

409
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 1: not You're always every time I hear them speaking, it's

410
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,399
Speaker 1: just they speak a completely different way when talking about

411
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: I will I agree with you I'm not ready to

412
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 1: say that they like him more than they like Andy Dalton,

413
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 1: but there has been this fun, confident vibe de Nucci himself,

414
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 1: like I think I hate I'm not trying to compare

415
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,120
Speaker 1: him to Romo as a player, but like he's kind

416
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 1: of got that cocky smugness to him that Romo had exactly.

417
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: He sounded completely unfazed by being on the QB one

418
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: call with the media. He was cracking jokes and he

419
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: was like, I forgot your question. Sorry. You know, they

420
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,640
Speaker 1: asked him about his forty time and he's like, oh yeah,

421
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 1: like I had to wind at my back just like you.

422
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: And it's not like he it's not like he went

423
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 1: to fricking you know, he didn't go to Ohio State

424
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 1: or Notre Dame, like he's not used to a bunch

425
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: of reporters wanted to talk to him. He went to

426
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,679
Speaker 1: James Madison and so that was impressive. And then you know,

427
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: Michael Galuve is like he's slinging that thing around man.

428
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,479
Speaker 1: Like there's definitely a fun vibe. I don't know if

429
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 1: it means they like it more than they like Andy Dalton.

430
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: I mean, you like when you're having fun, So the

431
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 1: but they relate to him. Andy Dalton's thirty two years

432
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 1: old or thirty one whatever. That a younger guy and

433
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: j Yeah. And here's also the thing to consider, Like,

434
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 1: I think what we got to remember is like sometimes

435
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,479
Speaker 1: these kinds of quarterbacks, what we heard of him is

436
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: the profile on him scouting report is that he is

437
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,880
Speaker 1: a guy with a big arm. He's a guy that's

438
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 1: willing to take some chances. He's a guy that can

439
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 1: can play off script, so he can he can scramble

440
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 1: a little bit. Those kind of guys tend to to

441
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: to bring a little bit of excitement to a practice

442
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: as well, right, because they can make a play here

443
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 1: and there, and the vests look at him like wow, Okay,

444
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 1: that's that's cool. He makes throw down feeling they're like wow,

445
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: and then he gets out of some trouble and makes

446
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: the play and like wow. The issue becomes when the

447
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 1: other defense is actually hitting him and and now he's

448
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: having the playoff scripts and he's having the playoffs script

449
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: every single play because there's no time in the pocket

450
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 1: and can he keep that tas up and keep making

451
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: plays over and over and over again. Now the good

452
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 1: side for the Cowboys is we've seen in the NFL

453
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 1: where a young quarterback with those kinds of skills can

454
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: initially start off playing pretty good. You know, he can

455
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 1: win a couple of games and turn a couple of heads.

456
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: It's when you have to do it for repeated week

457
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 1: that it becomes a problem. So if you want to

458
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: look on a bright side for the Cowboys this week,

459
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: the bright side would be maybe, just maybe they can

460
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,160
Speaker 1: pull a rabbit out of the hat and this guy

461
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: can have one of those kinds of games. I wouldn't

462
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 1: suspect that's probably going to happen with an offensive line

463
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 1: as bad as there is, but that's where I think

464
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 1: he can create that excitement that you may be hearing

465
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 1: from some of the veterans. And let's also remember he

466
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: is practicing against this defense. It's the same thing we

467
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: heard during training camp where you start talking about the

468
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,199
Speaker 1: defensive end playing against this offensive line. It's you know,

469
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: it could be who he's playing against us getting everybody

470
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: a little bit excited. So let's just temper that a

471
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 1: little bit until we see him up against in NFL

472
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 1: caliber Deefen in a live game. You're saying, Fletcher Cox

473
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: isn't on the Cowboys defensive side of the way. He

474
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: and Brandon Graham that they're not they're not the guys

475
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: that that they're gonna be facing that they've been facing

476
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 1: all week. I don't you know, if you all asks

477
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: for everybody, if you're Jim Schwartz, the Eagles defensive coordinator,

478
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 1: and h U if he do you think he would

479
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 1: rather face Denucci who's never started but he doesn't know

480
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: anything about, or Andy Dalton, who you can get a

481
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: lot of tape on even though he's a veteran and

482
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 1: he's won games. That's a great question. That is a

483
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,199
Speaker 1: really good question. Um. I think at the end of

484
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: the day, are you really are you really attacking the

485
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 1: quarterback or are you really attacking the old line? I

486
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: mean they go together. I know that's kind of like

487
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 1: a dumb statement, but here the weak area, our weakest area.

488
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,119
Speaker 1: I think it's it's what the old line has not

489
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 1: been able to do, which is protect your quarterback. So

490
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 1: it just goes hand in hand. And I think that's

491
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 1: that's why you really look at here when you are

492
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,640
Speaker 1: facing or looking to face the Cowboys offense. It's like, Okay,

493
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 1: this is the old line, this is the area we

494
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: can penetrate and attack through and get to the quarterback. Okay,

495
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,640
Speaker 1: that's that's fair. The Eagles are going to be able

496
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: to attack this Cowboys offensive line. So I'll ask Derek

497
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: and Dave that part. Because you're right offensive line, that's

498
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,199
Speaker 1: gonna be a problem who regardless who he had behind you.

499
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: But if you're the Eagles defensive coordinator, do you worry

500
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,159
Speaker 1: more about a guy that is elusive, that can that

501
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 1: can maybe make plays when that happens when it breaks down,

502
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: or a guy like like Andy Dalton who would aware,

503
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 1: who would be aware and recognize it better. I think,

504
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,640
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, in some way, it's probably nice

505
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: for like to play a guy like Dalton, who you

506
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: have an extensive book on how to play him and

507
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: what he does well and what he doesn't do well.

508
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: You know, for that matter, he's got a pretty abysmal

509
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 1: track record of playing in primetime. Like that's a that's

510
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,359
Speaker 1: a thing that goes back to Cincinnati. So maybe you

511
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: would have some comfort in that. But I still think

512
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: you'd rather play a rookie who's literally never on this

513
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: who is adapting to being QB one on five days. Notice.

514
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: I think that's probably still preferable. Yeah, I think the

515
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 1: question here is is it easier or is it preferable, right,

516
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: because I don't think the answer is necessarily the same

517
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 1: for both. It's probably easier to prepare to play Andy

518
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: Dalton because you know, you have years of experience and

519
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 1: tape to tell you exactly what he's going to be.

520
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: If you get pressure on him, then you can force

521
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 1: him to not play as well because he doesn't play

522
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 1: well under pressure. That was the scout and report that

523
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 1: Buck he gave us, and that's what we've seen so far. Right.

524
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,479
Speaker 1: The flip side of that is you don't really have

525
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 1: a scouting report on Denucci and and is he the

526
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 1: kind of guy I keep going back to this with Dad,

527
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: and I know Denucci is not Dad, but there's a

528
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 1: there is a sizable difference obviously in the production of

529
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,679
Speaker 1: this offense when Dak was in there and when Andy

530
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 1: was in there, and I think buying large, they've had

531
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: similar offensive line. I think people want to make this

532
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 1: arguable Dak had most of this. Guys know me, he

533
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 1: started the season without Lyonel, he didn't have tiring for

534
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,199
Speaker 1: much of the time. Yeah, he had Zack, but the

535
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: tackles were a problem from the beginning, and they were

536
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 1: still able to move the ball effectively, and they were

537
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 1: still able to pull up put up a ton of points.

538
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: So I just looked at it and I say, there

539
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 1: is a big difference right now. And I think part

540
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 1: of that difference, not all of it, but part of

541
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 1: that difference is in the fact that Jack is a

542
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: guy that forces defensive respect, the fact that he can

543
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: get out of the pocket and he can run, and

544
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 1: so they have to be thoughtful about that and how

545
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: they come after him. That's not the case with Andy.

546
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 1: So having in the quarterback back there, they can run

547
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: and it has a build to get out of the

548
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: pocket and seemingly, based on what everybody's talking about, can

549
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 1: actually run and maybe run faster than Dak. I think

550
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,880
Speaker 1: it's something that you have to consider now, and I'm

551
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: interested to see at least this Sunday how much that

552
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 1: fact is in when when their offensive is trying to

553
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 1: move the ball, and how the defense has to attack

554
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 1: Newtie knowing that he has at a built All right, Well,

555
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 1: I know we talked about this yesterday. We talked about

556
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 1: the guys that are that were injured and what it's

557
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 1: gonna look like still you know, things changed in twenty

558
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 1: four hours. Yesterday it was really cold and Derek liked this.

559
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 1: He wanted to be with this, so things changed. Let's go, uh,

560
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: Zach Martin, Joe Looney, Dave you think that they will play? Jack?

561
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: Zach is playing zone. I'm I don't feel confident about Joe,

562
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 1: so really quick left or right in your mind? What

563
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: do you think it's gonna look like? Start at left tackle,

564
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: cam Irving, Connor Williams, Tyler Beadest, Zack Martin, and Terrence Steele.

565
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: That's that's what I think it will look like. That's

566
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: not necessarily what I would do you think Steel's gonna start?

567
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: Why did it? Like? Yes, because he's been so bad. Okay,

568
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: he's been bad since the start. They love him, They

569
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: like if they were like, they're just all of a

570
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: sudden like, yeah, we're gonna yank him. You listening to

571
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: Joe Looney yesterday he was on the fan with with

572
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 1: Brian broad Us. That thing was hilarious. I don't know

573
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: if you guys saw this. We texted about it. I

574
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: didn't get to listen to pretty funny, but Looney basically

575
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: made it sound like, hey, thanks the young pups for

576
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: holding down the line and maybe he got some good

577
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: reps if we need you again. I mean, he made

578
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 1: it sound like he's playing. All right, let's go Joe

579
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: and for I mean, put Joe at right guard and

580
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 1: put Zach at right tackle. That's what I would do,

581
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 1: or Connor mcgovernor, I don't really care. I think I

582
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 1: am ready to do something drastic, Like I've been the

583
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: guy that didn't want to move guards to tackle, but

584
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 1: I think you need to at this point. I would

585
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 1: play Zach Martin at right tackle in this game. Brandon

586
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: Graham has killed various cowboy quarterbacks in his career, and

587
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 1: that scares me. I hope the coaching staff has learned

588
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: a lesson about who they should play at right tackle,

589
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: but I haven't seen a lot of evidence that suggests

590
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: they have. Derek. Hey, guys, I have a question. Is

591
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: it a foregone conclusion that when money comes back, the

592
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 1: Oddish is going to remain at center and Joe's gonna

593
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,959
Speaker 1: play a guard? No? No, I mean that based on

594
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 1: what Nick just said, maybe he's back at center. But

595
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 1: I've been impressed by No, I've been impressed by the Oddish. Yeah, yeah,

596
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: I think I think at this and in this case,

597
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 1: if it's close, if it's if it's pretty close like this,

598
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: then I do think you go for the younger guy

599
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: that is going to you know, definitely be here. I mean,

600
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: if it's close. If it's not, then then no, you

601
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: got to win games, and everybody in the locker room

602
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: deserves to try to win the game. But I'm just saying,

603
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 1: if it's a close thing, I think the younger guy

604
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,719
Speaker 1: usually win. But if you keep talking about you know,

605
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: we always hear this the whole like, oh, let's have

606
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 1: your five best offensive lineman on the field. So if

607
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: that's the case, I mean you would want to keep

608
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: the oddish there and then add Joe Looney somewhere, which

609
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 1: would be at guard. So Steele, we keep talking about him.

610
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 1: Clearly the staff has a different perspective. Nobody in the

611
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: NFL in the last four years that I know of,

612
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 1: has really tried to make Joe Looney a starter. Nobody. No.

613
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 1: So that's why it makes me wonder, like is he

614
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: really a better guard or is he just a great

615
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 1: option for a backup because he can play three spots

616
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 1: on game day. I don't know. I mean, he hasn't

617
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: been bad when he started. No, you're right. I mean

618
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: he was the starter for a playoff team in twenty eighteen.

619
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: They did give up fifty six sacks, but he played

620
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: well enough to help him get there. Um, I mean

621
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: I would rather play him at guard and move a

622
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 1: guard to tackle, like I Beotis has been good in

623
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: my opinion, not an O line coach, but that's what

624
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: I've seen. And yeah, to Joe's on. Joe's got nine

625
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 1: games left on his contract, and Tyler Biottish has three

626
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 1: more years, and it seems plausible that he's your starting

627
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: center going forward. You might as well just just get

628
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 1: in there, young buck and get ready. All right, Derek,

629
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: before you take us to break here, I want you

630
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: to tell me what you think the defensive backs are

631
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: gonna look like. Cheeto's gonna come back. What would you

632
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: do there? Cheeto comes back? Where you are you gonna

633
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: bench Diggs? Do you want to play him on the

634
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: other side? Anthony Brown is the third corner? What do

635
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: you like there? Yeah? I think at this point I

636
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: take this opportunity to be able to give Digs an

637
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: opportunity to do a little watching from the sideline. And

638
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean I don't play him at all. That

639
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 1: means that he'd be my third cornerback, which, by the way,

640
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:21,959
Speaker 1: as we came into the season, I think that's what

641
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: we all expected, was that he was probably going to

642
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: be a third cornerback. Maybe by halfway through the season

643
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 1: he had gotten enough rests and seeing enough stuff to

644
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: where now he is more prepared to be a starter

645
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: and maybe slide him in at that point. We did

646
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: it in reverse. Now the time for him to be

647
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: able to sit back and look a little bit and

648
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: maybe learn from another vantage point and still get in

649
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: there and play at the third cornerback. So I would

650
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: definitely kind of scale him back a little bit. Again,

651
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 1: I'm trying. I'm thinking about him as a future player.

652
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to kill his confidence right now, and

653
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 1: he's taken a bit of a beating here. He got

654
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: to play some good receivers and he's taken a bit

655
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: of a beating. I think I scale back on him

656
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: a little bit and let him kind of catch his bread.

657
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 1: Do you want to hurt Jalen Smith's confidence at all?

658
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: Sean Lee comes back, Are we worried about it? I'm

659
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: really not worried about Jalen confidence at this point. I

660
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 1: think Yalens no one's ever been worried about it. I

661
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 1: think Jayalen loves Jalen, and that's good. Everyone's good. I

662
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 1: loved himselfs But I think I think that, yeah, if

663
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 1: I get an opportunity to get Sean Lee back, I'm

664
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 1: going Sean Lee and I'm going vander Esh And to

665
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: be honest with you, I'm kind of judicious on how

666
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 1: much I wanted you, Jalen. I'm good with us and

667
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: Joe Thomas in there, as opposed to just assuming that

668
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: that Jalen's my third my third linebacker. I'm just and

669
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: I've been saying it since early in the year. I'm just.

670
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: I'm I'm at this point pretty sold on the fact

671
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: that Jalen Smith is just not playing good football. He's

672
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: too sporadic. He'll make a play every once in a while,

673
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: but then he'll have three or four bad plays, and

674
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: I just think that's a big part of the problem

675
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: they're having on defense. All Right, we're gonna go to break. There,

676
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: gonna take us to break. Sure, let's go to break.

677
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,239
Speaker 1: We'll come back and we'll talk about I don't know

678
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,240

728
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 1: with it. And I'm kind of a snob when he

Speaker 1: comes to Burger kind of just stop it at snob man, No, no, no,

730
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: wreck that. I'm not a snob when it comes to

731
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 1: regular life, not at all. Just fo. You're right, You're okay,

732
00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 1: all food just not I'm a food snopka Yeah all,

733
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: And I'm I'll live with that. All right. Let's play

734
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 1: a game. Let's play a game called more or Less

735
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 1: or Less? All right? Um, should let's start with this

736
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:25,000
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard's touches. He's averaging five point eight touches offensive

737
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: touches a game. Should he get more or less? You know,

738
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: it's I'm the I'm the give Tony the ball guy.

739
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 1: But like they've had so many problems that I'm just

740
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, I can't even be bothered with something that

741
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 1: far down the priority list this week. But well, I

742
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,839
Speaker 1: will say more, like he should get more. Oh my god,

743
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 1: we got bulldogs. He should be getting Oh wow, hey

744
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: check it out. Sorry, go dogs sick him? Um, he

745
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: should be getting he should be getting more snaps. He

746
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 1: should get a dedicated series per half. Um, yeah, I

747
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: would give him the ball. I would try to get

748
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 1: him the ball ten to twelve times this week. All right,

749
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 1: what about else? Want to I'll just point this out.

750
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: This will be at Amber Jalen snaps. He's at one

751
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:11,359
Speaker 1: hundred percent. Should he be getting more than that or less?

752
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 1: A cackle probably says it more than anything we can do.

753
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 1: If more so, but less. He should be on the

754
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 1: bench watching and learning how to do it. Not that

755
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 1: he's gonna be watching people a lot much better than him,

756
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 1: But man, I would have set him down a while back. Okay,

757
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 1: just to make a point. Okay, Also, I'm gonna piggyback

758
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: off that because this next one, Dalton Schultz, you also

759
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: wanted to be off the team. Now I'm gonna ask

760
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 1: Derek twenty five catches for Dalton Schultz? You think he

761
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: should be getting more than that? Or do you think

762
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 1: that's that's about right? That's about right. I mean with

763
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 1: all the other weapons, does that's offense? That's that's about right.

764
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 1: To be honest with you, I'm very happy with the

765
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 1: twenty five. I think the twenty five is a great

766
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 1: number for him through almost half the season. That that

767
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 1: was not what I would have expected at the point

768
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: when when we thought he was when we knew that

769
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: he was gonna have to be their starters. So I've

770
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: been I've been pleasantly surprised with what he's been able

771
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: to contribute from the standpoint of a pass catching tight end.

772
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: I don't think that you can expect a lot more

773
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 1: from him. All right, All right, now, let gonna ask

774
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,759
Speaker 1: Dave this one. I know the answer, So everyone jump

775
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 1: in Denucci's swag more or less? Like? Does he need

776
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 1: to show more? Do you like? Oh? I love it?

777
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: I mean does he need does he need to temperate

778
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 1: a little. Know why. I'm like literally shoes and say

779
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 1: really yeah, but seriously, like what what do you have

780
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,320
Speaker 1: to lose? Like, you're right, what's the what's the less

781
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 1: Miles quote that you love so much from when he

782
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: was at Oklahoma State. Let let it rip like you

783
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: you are in a you I mean, I hate to

784
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: sound like a pessimist, but it's a damn near hopeless situation.

785
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 1: You might as well go have some fun, be more swaggy, honestly,

786
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 1: and if you if you find a way to win,

787
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:58,479
Speaker 1: talk your talk like yeah, why not? This The way

788
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 1: the place we are right now in season is absurd,

789
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,359
Speaker 1: so you might as well just recognize it and try

790
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,879
Speaker 1: to have some fun. You're saying, if he goes out

791
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 1: and wins this game, he should just be fit fits

792
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: magic at the podium. It just yeah, put put on

793
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: some aviators, make a you know, d c d's you

794
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: know what I mean, c d's lamb, Just get after it.

795
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: Have some fun. Funny because he looks so young. He

796
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 1: looks like he is he's a rookie, Okay, I know,

797
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: but he has like that baby little face. And then

798
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 1: it's it's just funny when someone has so much confidence.

799
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: I would go up if he if he finds a

800
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: way to win. I would get on that call after

801
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 1: the game and be like, yeah, what's up? Pay you

802
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:38,839
Speaker 1: let me get out of here. That's your that's your

803
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,879
Speaker 1: bad idiots. I'm Ben d Nucci. I would It might

804
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 1: be the greatest moment of his career. Like, he might

805
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 1: not top it, so he should. He should top the

806
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 1: Kurt Cousins Like you like that? Yeah, it should be

807
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:53,280
Speaker 1: like what's up? Yeah? Even I mean even if he wins,

808
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,720
Speaker 1: he's probably back on the bench next week because Dalton

809
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: will be back, like literally, more swag, always more swag?

810
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,720
Speaker 1: All right, how about this? Uh, this is for everyone

811
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 1: and it's and Jalen is not included in this. Who

812
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 1: needs to play less? So we can't say Jones? Oh no, no,

813
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: Arren Steel? Oh you guys. Yeah, I was about to say,

814
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: where are you, guys? There's no bomb pauling Derek. We're

815
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,399
Speaker 1: at the Tostitos Championship Plaza, Forth Center, the fun Town

816
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: RV tailgate. You never know who. I thought that might

817
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 1: be Jerry Jones, to be honest with you, So, um,

818
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,799
Speaker 1: who needs to play less? Terren Steel is a great

819
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 1: answer um m mmm mmmmmm. I no, you know it

820
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 1: would be better. I should have sent a really long

821
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,920
Speaker 1: text message to you guys beforehand. Then you could have

822
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 1: looked at Tern steals the right answer. If you can't

823
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 1: say Jalen Smith, Arren Steals the right answer. Yeah, who

824
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,720
Speaker 1: needs to play more? I actually I wanted to argue.

825
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 1: I wanted to argue with Derek in the previous segment.

826
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,959
Speaker 1: I like, the same thing is same thing as Tyler

827
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: or be honest, get get Treyvon Diggs on the field?

828
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,800
Speaker 1: This like, I like, this is this is a trial

829
00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: by fire. This is where I see what you've got

830
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: and I'm trying to mold you into a quality starter

831
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: for next year when we retool and try again. Like

832
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 1: that's what I thought you told me. I thought you

833
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 1: said earlier this week on the show that if Keto's delty,

834
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:22,840
Speaker 1: you'd have Keto out there playing. Yeah, I would have Cheeto.

835
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 1: I would have Cheeto and Trayvon on the boundary and

836
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: ab is my nickelback. That's what I would do. I

837
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: think it's when they're in base defense, would you have

838
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: would you have him on the field? Yes? Over Brown? Yeah? Okay,

839
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 1: that's I mean I he needs to play like you

840
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 1: need to figure out what you've got in him, and

841
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: also like I'm I'm so impressed by his demeanor. He

842
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 1: doesn't really he doesn't seem affected by the struggles that

843
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 1: he's had. I tell you who I think needs to

844
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 1: play less is Jordan Lewis. I don't disagree with that.

845
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 1: Love the guy. I mean, one of my favorite players

846
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,399
Speaker 1: that have been here, that's been here in a long

847
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: long because I I've thought, I've saw I saw so

848
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 1: much potential in Jordan Lewis, and he's put up some

849
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 1: great plays on the field in previous years, like last year,

850
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:11,839
Speaker 1: but man, I was really hoping him to be able

851
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 1: to do something better this year and it hasn't been

852
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 1: the case. So it's really this thing we thought. I mean,

853
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 1: we ranked him as the best best cornerback on the

854
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 1: team in June yea and felt pretty good about it. Yeah, which, man,

855
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,520
Speaker 1: I think Cheeto was probably the right answer. I know,

856
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,239
Speaker 1: like Cheeto, people love to hate on Cheeto, but I

857
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 1: think he's a pretty good player. Now with the whole thing,

858
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 1: go ahead, I'll give you guys another name of a

859
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 1: guy I want to see a little less of. And

860
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 1: it's not so much about him. It's about the guys

861
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,399
Speaker 1: behind him, as Laurance Armstrong. When I heard the coach

862
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 1: talking this week and saying Doran, he mentioned Dorance as

863
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 1: the guy he wants to see out there or that

864
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: will get the benefit of getting more opportunities. I actually

865
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 1: wanted to see more of Randy. I want to see

866
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:54,799
Speaker 1: more of Bradley, and I like, I'd rather see those

867
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 1: guys because I think I know what Dorance Armstrong is

868
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 1: and and that's just kind of a you know, he

869
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 1: says he's an okay player. I guess at best. I

870
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:05,680
Speaker 1: want to see those other guys more than I want

871
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 1: to see him at this point. That was actually that

872
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 1: was me that asked Mike that question. And I asked

873
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:12,960
Speaker 1: it because I was like, all right, well, let me

874
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,360
Speaker 1: find something for the fans to get excited about. You know,

875
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 1: I'll you know, Brandy, Gregory and Bradley and I like

876
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: they'll get some more snaps. And McCarthy was like, well,

877
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 1: it'll it'll be Dorance Armstrong. I was like, come on, Mike,

878
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,800
Speaker 1: you gotta work with me, man, you got me. He

879
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: never really says anything and that he chooses to say

880
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 1: that literally, he like, I just thought he was gonna

881
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, Bradley, Bradley and Randy definitely deserve more opportunities.

882
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,160
Speaker 1: He was like, don't forget about Doran's armstrong. I'm like,

883
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,359
Speaker 1: fans don't want to hear that, Mike. They don't. We've

884
00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 1: already forget. You know what something Derek doesn't want to

885
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: hear is the fact that they just brought out a

886
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: bunch of wings. Stop over here, so very good here

887
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 1: at the Tostitos Championship part. It's that time. That's it,

888
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 1: That's what I'm got it. Okay, um, it's that time.

889
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: We'll start with you, Derek pick for the game, all right.

890
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,240
Speaker 1: I think this is a pretty clear and easy choice

891
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,840
Speaker 1: this week. I think I'm gonna go with Philly, although

892
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 1: I do think there will be some moments in this

893
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:11,840
Speaker 1: game when we will be we will all be pleasantly

894
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 1: surprised at Benzannuki. He will make some plays offensively, but

895
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,840
Speaker 1: I just think right now, everything about this to me

896
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 1: goes back to the fact that I don't think this

897
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,520
Speaker 1: offensive line will be able to protect him, and I

898
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:25,320
Speaker 1: think he'll be running for his life all day. I

899
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 1: think there'll be moments when he'll make plays I think

900
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 1: there'll be moments when he probably makes mistakes, and those

901
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,680
Speaker 1: mistakes will be enough that that he ends up costing

902
00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: them the game. I think it's probably gonna be a

903
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 1: twenty four to I don't know, seventeen games Cowboys lose,

904
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:44,279
Speaker 1: but it's not gonna be a It will be a

905
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,919
Speaker 1: game that they're end It just won't. They just won't

906
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:50,360
Speaker 1: have enough to be able to be billy. I agree

907
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 1: with everything that Derek said, and you know, the Cowboys

908
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,320
Speaker 1: do it to me every week. I start thinking that

909
00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:00,359
Speaker 1: there's a little hope in there, a little bright at

910
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 1: the end of the tunnel, and then nope, disappointment comes again,

911
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:07,960
Speaker 1: and especially after losing in Washington, there's no way. I

912
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 1: just don't trust the Cowboys right now. I don't trust

913
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:15,319
Speaker 1: the old line. I absolutely do not trust their defense. So, yeah,

914
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 1: Cowboys lose, and it's gonna be an ugly score. Probably

915
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 1: they get to score maybe maybe if they get lucky,

916
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:27,280
Speaker 1: like twelve points or something like that. But the Eagles

917
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:33,880
Speaker 1: are gonna score high twenties, all right. You know, I've

918
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:35,840
Speaker 1: brought up twenty fifteen a lot this week, and I

919
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 1: think that's actually what this is gonna look like. I

920
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,880
Speaker 1: think between the defensive changes and maybe the juice that

921
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:45,360
Speaker 1: Denucci can bring, like, I think this will look scrappier.

922
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:47,840
Speaker 1: I think they you know, they'll they'll be juiced up

923
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 1: a little bit more. They're not going to be out

924
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 1: of it at halftime against the terrible team like they

925
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 1: were last year. But they don't have they don't have

926
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,399
Speaker 1: the firepower to compete. I don't you know, Denucci, even

927
00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,320
Speaker 1: with Zach Martin, even if with Joe Looney back, I

928
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 1: think that's a matchup. I don't like this defense against

929
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:05,240
Speaker 1: Carson Winz Jalen Ragers coming back their first round receiver

930
00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 1: who's pretty damn good in his own right. So I

931
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 1: see this being competitive into the third and then the

932
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,080
Speaker 1: Eagles pull away. So the final score I'm thinking is

933
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 1: thirty one nine. Maybe the Eagles or maybe maybe the

934
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys get a handful of field goals, but I think

935
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,320
Speaker 1: it'll be like seventeen to nine in the third quarter,

936
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 1: and then the Eagles kind of score to make it

937
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: look more lopsided than it is. But I just I

938
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 1: cannot pick the Cowboys too. I definitely can't pick them

939
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 1: to win, and I have a hard time even thinking

940
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 1: they keep it within seven to ten points. Yeah, you

941
00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 1: can't pick them to win this game. I agree with

942
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 1: all you guys. I think it'll be I think they'll

943
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 1: show a little bit more heart and effort in this game.

944
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:49,879
Speaker 1: I mean have to mean. It was embarrassing two weeks ago.

945
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 1: You become the laughing stock to the NFL or after

946
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:54,960
Speaker 1: you what you did to Washington. So if you don't

947
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: have any pride at all and come back in this game,

948
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:58,799
Speaker 1: then you don't have it. And then we're gonna find

949
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:00,319
Speaker 1: out a lot about that. But I don't don't think

950
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,880
Speaker 1: they have the talent to to compete. I agree a

951
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 1: little bit more of Amber score. I think twenty seven sixteen,

952
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:08,880
Speaker 1: and I think they'll they'll you know, I think there

953
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,200
Speaker 1: will be an eyebrow game for like first quarter and

954
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:18,440
Speaker 1: a half, like oh, well okay, but then eyebrows for day.

955
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,719
Speaker 1: I just meant more of a raised eyebrow game. I'm like, oh,

956
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:24,320
Speaker 1: you can't used to see Derek's face, like and you

957
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,239
Speaker 1: guys and you yeah, I can imagine. I can hear

958
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:31,120
Speaker 1: Derek right now being like Okay, d Nucci, all right,

959
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,399
Speaker 1: well Derek, you want to do the honors and wrap
