And I was kind of relieved that I 0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:41.640 wasn't the last person. Now, I don't want any anything 0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:42.720 bad to happen to Kyle. 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:43.759 Obviously you talked. 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:47.040 About ycle or his unicycle. But when I texted the 0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:49.080 group coming in hot because I was running late, I 0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:51.120 was like, man, I hate being the last I don't 0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:53.840 want anybody to be waiting because I'm holding the group up. 0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:55.200 And so when I came in here and I saw 0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:55.920 an open seat, I was. 0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:57.120 Like, all right, I feel a little bit better. 0:01:57.160 --> 0:01:58.520 I'm not the last person. Whatever. 0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:01.000 But obviously we want the unicycle to get facked. 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:02.000 Yeah, we had to. 0:02:01.760 --> 0:02:04.600 Get the unicycle fixed, but nah, that's good man. So 0:02:04.800 --> 0:02:06.720 talking Thursday, obviously we're getting ready for the game with 0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:11.200 Dallas Cowboys versus Detroit Lions. The fighting Dan Campbell's we've 0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.160 been hitting on what yesterday we hit on our offense 0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:15.480 a little bit in terms of Detroit and some of 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:17.040 the weapons that they have, some of the. 0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:18.280 Issues that they proposed. 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:20.720 We talked a little bit about their backfield, and then 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:23.880 they're two headed monster in Montgomery and Gibbs and the 0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:26.960 issues that they provide. I mean, obviously the receiving corps 0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:29.680 that they have out there, and who we're worried about, 0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:30.760 who we're not worried about. 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:32.600 Today, we're going to talk a little bit about the defense. 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:36.680 Okay, we're gonna preview that Dallas Cowboys offense versus that defense. 0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:38.320 But before we get into that, we need to know 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:40.880 what's going on around the building, mister Nick Harrison, any 0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:41.919 news and notes popping off? 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:44.840 Yeah, yesterday was a busy day. We could start with 0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:47.680 It was around right when we got off the show. Yesterday, 0:02:48.360 --> 0:02:51.840 the Cowboys made the decision to waive linebacker Rashaun Evans, 0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:54.680 who they signed earlier in the season whenever Lateon Vanderush 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:56.919 went down with his season ending neck injury, and they 0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:59.560 activated offensive tackle Matt will Let's go from the injured 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:03.560 reserve and it was met with a lot of how 0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:04.200 do I say this? 0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:04.600 Hate? 0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:08.400 On Twitter? Twitter fans were not enjoying it. As the 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:12.040 day progressed and the news came out, it kind of 0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:14.320 made a little bit more sense as far as context goes, 0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:18.040 is why the Cowboys maybe released him. Mike McCarthy setting 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:20.359 his press conference yesterday that you know later in the 0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:22.639 week there'll be more answers to questions and stuff like that, 0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:24.560 so that leads me to believe that they're open to 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:27.320 bringing him back to the practice squad. Now, he wouldn't 0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:28.720 be able to play if he came back to the 0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:32.400 practice squad because he started his season on the practice 0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:34.680 squad and used all three of his elevations, So if 0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:36.040 he was to go back to the practice squad, he 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.400 wouldn't be able to play until the playoffs at the earliest. 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.600 But for Matt Will, let's go, it's an opportunity to 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:45.000 get back on the field, and I'll kind of preview 0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:47.760 what the injury report is looking like. Tyron Smith did 0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:50.800 not practice today with a back injury, and then Chumydoga 0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:52.920 popped up with a toe injury. So if both of 0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:55.200 those guys can't go, then you know, Matt Will Let's go. 0:03:55.320 --> 0:03:57.680 Maybe is the next man up or Awesome Richards is 0:03:57.680 --> 0:03:59.840 gonna be one of those two guys. So it's a 0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:02.080 bit a big opportunity for Will Let's Go to not 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:04.520 only get on the roster, but potentially even play this week. 0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:06.600 And can you remind the people exactly why Will Let's 0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:09.040 Go wasn't hasn't really been active as late. 0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:12.200 So yeah, So his rookie year he dealt with shoulder supplexation. 0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:14.120 Is that I can say that word, I know. 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:16.279 But he had it in one shoulder. I forget which 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:18.040 one it was last year. It was it was a 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:20.120 left shoulder. Oh no, he's right tackle, right, So yeah, 0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:22.000 but he had it in one shoulder last year and 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:23.760 now he's got it in the other shoulder this year 0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:26.839 that he suffered during the preseason. I believe that was 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:30.560 the last preseason game against the Raiders when he suffered 0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:34.320 that shoulder supplexation and he's been on injured reserve since then. 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:36.920 He got back on the practice field about three weeks 0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:38.640 ago they opened up that twenty one day window and 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:40.760 he was a full participant from that moment on. So 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:42.440 it looks like he's been ready to go. It's just 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:44.520 about like finding him a spot on the roster, and 0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:46.480 this is a spot, So this is a big opportunity 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:47.520 for him to get back on the field. 0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:50.960 How do you feel about the possibility of not having 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:53.360 Tyron Smith or I don't think I think Chumo would play, 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:55.200 but obviously he's dealing with the tow injury from the game. 0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:59.440 I am less concerned this week than I was last week. 0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:02.480 I think the defensive line in Miami Dolphins is a 0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:05.640 lot more active than that of Detroit Lions. Obviously we'll 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:07.039 get into that a little bit more here in a bit, 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:10.120 But Detroit Lions defensive line doesn't scare me. 0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:11.359 They don't scare me. 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:15.880 They're they're solid, they're discipline, but they don't individually don't 0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:18.320 fear me. I don't fear them in that regard as 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:20.719 I did with Miami. They they don't fear you exactly, 0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:24.320 they don't fear me. So yeah, I'm less concerned about 0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:28.120 tyrans availability this week, but obviously just want him back 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.479 one hundred percent healthy. So whatever that requires, if that requires, 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:33.520 if he's if he got those shots in his back 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:35.000 and now he feels good and he can come back 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.000 and play this week, then I'll be more than elated. 0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:39.120 If he can't, then to just let you know that 0:05:39.160 --> 0:05:42.080 he's not one hundred hopefully, and he gets back next 0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:43.360 week ready getting. 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:44.880 Ready for the playoffs, you know, as a warm up 0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:45.520 for the playoffs. 0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:49.000 So just want him healthy, man, I want this entire 0:05:49.040 --> 0:05:52.680 offensive line healthy because to the conversation that we had yesterday, 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:54.480 we can't afford any of these guys to be going. 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:57.560 You know, we can't shuffle the deck. You know, the 0:05:57.560 --> 0:05:59.520 deck has been shuffled too many times over the past 0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:01.240 few years. And now you just want guys to be 0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:04.000 where they where their feet are, and just be constant 0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:07.840 and be you know, steadfast. Just just be be consistent 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:10.320 so that Dak can be sure back there. Because when 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:13.080 Dak is unsure in terms of his safety, just like 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:16.080 any quarterback in this league, you we know what can happen. 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:18.599 You saw it happen with Brock Purty the other day. 0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:21.760 Brock Party was mister, you know, bus driving, no interceptions. 0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:23.080 All of a sudden he gets a little pssure on 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:26.200 him and you go take it. Four interceptions later, you know, 0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:28.960 you know, he's a different guy. And that's any quarterback 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:31.000 you know who doesn't have the ability to necessarily utilize 0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:33.320 their feet. So we don't want Dak getting out the 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:36.800 happening to you get out the pocket just because so 0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:39.000 I hope that I hope the tyrant could be there. 0:06:39.040 --> 0:06:41.080 But shout out to Matt, well, let's go. Hopefully his 0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:44.080 shoulders are intact and he's ready to go. You know, 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.680 your opportunities in this league come from different various ways. 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:50.560 You know, whether it be somebody underperforming, a lot of 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:53.440 times it comes from injury. This instance, it came from 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.600 you know, we'll let the end of the week tell, 0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:58.919 but it seems like behavior type stuff. So you know, 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:01.839 hopefully he gets hope he doesn't get an opportunity to play, 0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:05.240 No disrespect to him because of Tyrone, but if he 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:06.960 does get his opportunity, I hope that he did that 0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:07.520 he shows out. 0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:10.160 Yeah, absolutely, which leads us into the injury report from yesterday. 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:12.760 I spoke kind of about Chumley Dogau and we were 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:14.520 talking with Mike McCarthy and kind of the walk off 0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:17.640 yesterday after the press conference, and he was we were 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:19.760 kind of talking about, well, let's go, and he's like, yeah, 0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:21.320 you know, Tyron, he's been hurt and you know, Chuma 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:23.080 got dinged up in the Miami game. He's like, did 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:24.600 that pop up on the injury report yesterday? And you 0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:26.760 kind of look around, he's like, he's healthy, he's good. 0:07:26.880 --> 0:07:28.640 But then he did pop up on the injury report 0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:32.200 later that day, so he's he was limited with a 0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:34.640 toe injury. Something to keep an eye on he obviously 0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:37.280 he wasn't listening on Tuesday. We can go down the 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:40.200 list here. Rico Dawdle. He's been battling that ankle injury. 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.320 He was limited on Tuesday. He's been limited in the 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:44.440 last few weeks. But he did not practice yesterday, so 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:46.360 maybe something to keep an eye on there. If he 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:49.120 can't go, then you're looking at you know, Hunter Lipke, 0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:52.120 deuce Vaughn. Malik Davis is out of elevation, so you 0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:54.880 can't use my leak. So yeah, it would be kind 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:59.840 of an interesting a compliment to Tony Pollard, who would 0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:00.200 have why do. 0:08:00.240 --> 0:08:02.960 You believe that they elevated Malik and did not utilize. 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:03.320 Them special teams? 0:08:03.360 --> 0:08:03.600 He was. 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:05.840 He was utilized on special teams all three games. He 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:06.120 was the. 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:10.320 Uh, what what's what's right in front of the kick returner? 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:11.960 What do you call that? Just like the first protector 0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:13.920 basically yea of the off set. 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:16.800 Yeah, so he he was utilizing that role all three 0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:19.600 games and every single kick return, so he was helping 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:22.560 out turping in those instances. But yeah, didn't really use 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.120 him in the backfield much, especially you know, when the 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:27.360 running game wasn't really working in Miami. It kind of 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:29.400 surprised me that they didn't at least try him a 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:30.960 couple of times just to see what, you know, he 0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:33.040 could bring to the table from a running game perspective. 0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:34.400 We'll keep going here. 0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:38.120 Let's see Jonathan Hankins once again did not practice. Mollie 0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:40.640 Hooker was back to a full participant yesterday. That's a 0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:43.400 good sign. Hunter Limke as well, with his thigh injury, 0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:46.120 was back to a full participant. Zach Martin did not 0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:49.559 practice yesterday with rest no where he's there. Zach Martin 0:08:49.600 --> 0:08:51.760 continues to not practice, and then Matt will Esko was 0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:54.680 a full participant with his shoulders. So kind of a 0:08:54.679 --> 0:08:55.920 couple of things to keep an eye on as the 0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:59.559 week goes on. Yeah, it's it's gonna be an interesting week, 0:08:59.640 --> 0:09:03.720 especially Freako double can't go and or Tyron Smith slash 0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:05.760 too Maneydoga. Then then you're starting to work with a 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:07.080 lot of things before Saturday. 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:09.840 I know, Thursday usually gives us a lot more information 0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:13.520 in terms of guy's probability for availability on the game 0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:15.800 day Sundays. Typically this week is gonna be Saturday Night 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:18.680 obviously or a AT and T. But what's you guys's 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:22.239 confidence level right now in the availability of Jonathan Hankins. 0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:26.240 So I would say Tyron Smith is ahead of Jonathan Hankins. 0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:30.319 And we'll know later today when the injury report comes 0:09:30.360 --> 0:09:33.560 out because today will be like a Friday. And last 0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:37.440 week Tyron was doubtful. And I'm pretty sure, I'm like 0:09:37.520 --> 0:09:39.880 ninety nine point nine percent sure that there has not 0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:43.000 been a person listened as doubtful that's played this season 0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:44.800 for the Dallas Cowboys. So if you see Tyron Smith 0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:47.080 is doubtful or Jonathan Hankins is doubtful, you know that 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:49.679 they're most likely not playing. I think Tyron's going to 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:53.560 be questionable. I don't know about Hankins. So I feel 0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:55.719 a lot more confident because if they list you a 0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:57.160 question wele I think it's like fifty to fifty that 0:09:57.200 --> 0:09:59.640 you're going to play or whatever. I think that's closer 0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:03.360 to sixty or seventy percent that Tyrant plays. I think 0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:05.640 for Jonathan Hankins it's forty. 0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:08.120 Yeah, I was I was putting in about thirty forty. 0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:12.040 I bet Hankins is doubtful. Smith is questionable. And there's 0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:13.640 only been one player in the entire league this year 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:15.480 that's played when listed is doubtful and it was Max 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:16.520 Crosby a few weeks ago. 0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:17.720 So no kidding, Okay, yeah. 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:18.839 So it's since he's the only one. 0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:20.080 Yeah, he's different. 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:22.719 Yeah, but yeah, if they were playing the Chiefs, like, 0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:24.960 he's not gonna miss that game. So uh but yeah, 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:27.679 if that's kind of my prediction, we'll have game designations 0:10:27.679 --> 0:10:29.680 come out of today since today is technically a Friday 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:31.880 in the building, and then tomorrow would be a Saturday. 0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:33.880 So uh yeah, definitely some things to keep an eye 0:10:33.920 --> 0:10:34.800 on as far as enturies go. 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:38.680 I don't like it. I don't like it one bit. Man. 0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:41.200 What's what's it looking like over there in Detroit? Are 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:43.000 they Are they looking relatively healthy right now? 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.760 Or yeah one moment, gay, yeah, give me. 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.920 Sorry, all things considered for this time of year, that 0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:51.079 they are. Yeah, I mean there's like a couple guys 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:53.280 that are on their injury list. But in terms of 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:55.840 this part of the season where you look at so 0:10:55.840 --> 0:10:59.000 many teams that have lost like key guys because early 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:02.320 in the year they lost challenging Ardner Johnson and he 0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:06.280 has been like working back into practice. I don't know 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:08.160 if they he'll come back for this game, but they're 0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:10.160 ramping him up so that he could potentially be back 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:12.640 for the start of the playoffs. But their safeties have 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:14.680 actually played pretty well, so it'll be interesting to see 0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:17.320 how he works back into that mix. But it seems 0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:18.920 like it would be iffy for him to return for 0:11:19.000 --> 0:11:22.360 this game, but he's He's obviously a really good player. 0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:24.240 I thought I thought he was a huge part of 0:11:24.240 --> 0:11:26.520 the Eagles last year, Like I just kind of help 0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:28.240 him putting them over the top. Also, by the way, 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:31.560 when the athletic pulled anonymous players throughout the league, he 0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:34.000 was by far and away the winner for the biggest 0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:36.719 trash talker in the NFL. I just wanted to throw that. 0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:42.840 Yeah, Ramsey wasn't really chirpy that he was he was. 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:44.320 I don't know. 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:45.520 I don't know what was going on there. Was he 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:46.360 bored or I. 0:11:46.360 --> 0:11:48.080 Don't know, he was followed, So maybe that was a 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:48.400 part of it. 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:52.360 Maybe maybe for Detroit, they're starting left tackle Taylor Decker 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:54.960 did not practice yesterday with a groin injury. He was 0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:57.040 limited on Tuesday and it was downgraded to a did 0:11:57.040 --> 0:11:59.000 not practice. So that's that is one thing to keep 0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:00.320 an eye on as the week goes on. As far 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:03.040 as everybody else, we mentioned it yesterday, backup tight end 0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:05.559 brock Wright, who's kind of worked in whenever Laporta is 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:06.079 off the field. 0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:07.640 He did not practice yesterday. 0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:10.400 But as far as everybody else like it, Pinnace seols 0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:13.280 on there, Frank Ragnole is on there, but their full participants, 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:14.000 and then CJ. 0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:14.319 Gardner. 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:16.960 Johnson remains limited, but he still needs to be activated 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.000 from the IR to play on Saturday. 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:21.439 All right, that's it, so I gotta go. 0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:24.360 There goes the Dallas Cowboys injury report and a little 0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:26.559 update there and the Detroit Lions. When we've come back, 0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:28.800 we're gonna take a little bit deeper dive into what 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:31.080 this defense is looking like of the Detroit Lions, of 0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:33.120 how they can try to slow down the offensive the 0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:34.000 Dallas Cowboys. 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:35.959 Right here on Talking Cowboys. 0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:38.480 Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:41.440 Cheatah Savannah.

It is fast, reliable, and secure, and 0:12:52.120 --> 0:12:54.160 he learned the best thing to do is stop running 0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:57.000 and toss her the backpack with the beef stew at 0:12:57.120 --> 0:13:00.839 and T five G.

By the 0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:54.840 time you guys are done, you're just like it's kind 0:15:54.840 --> 0:15:55.280 of a dessert. 0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:55.480 Now. 0:15:56.240 --> 0:15:56.840 Oh man. 0:15:57.040 --> 0:15:58.920 All right, well, y'all, it's time to talk a little 0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:01.560 bit of defense for the Detroit Lions and what they 0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:04.160 can potentially do or what problems they present for the 0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:05.080 Dallas Cowboys. 0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:07.240 Hold up, does that mean it's time for some. 0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:11.040 Why Eddie?
