We're gonna talk from Cowboys football. 11 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: We can get you guys ready for this Cowboys versus 12 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: Jets game coming up on Sunday. That's at three thirty 13 00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: Central time. So I guess let's first jump been and 14 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: get started talking about a couple of injuries. Three guys 15 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 1: miss practice yesterday. Talk to me about Layton vandresh Dave. 16 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: You mentioned yesterday he wasn't at practice. We've learned more 17 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: about why he wasn't at practice us a little bit 18 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: about what's going on there. He's sick. He came in 19 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 1: yesterday and was feeling under the weather, and they were like, 20 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 1: let's hold you out. And Garrett said, this morning he 21 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: feels better, but they're still holding them out. He came 22 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: out to practice. He's not padded up, but he's out there. 23 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 1: It looks like he's rehabbing with Britt Brown and then 24 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: training the athletic training staff. Does he also have an 25 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: injury or is it just the illness that's well said 26 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: an illness? No, no, and but I think you know, 27 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: it's more like if you're not going to practice, at 28 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 1: least get out there and get your wind up. Yeah. 29 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: I you know, people brought this up like it looked 30 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: at times like he was hobbled in a couple of 31 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: these the Saints and Packers games. Specifically, he's not on 32 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: the injury report with a physical ailment. Haven't heard anything 33 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: about it. Um, so it's not it's not related to that, 34 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: you know, just Nixon knocks that happened during a football game. Yeah, 35 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: I would expect he's gonna play in this game. It's 36 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: just you know, illnesses. It's I said this on the 37 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: fan earlier today, is like when you have a team 38 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: of highly trained professionals helping you get over the flu 39 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: or a cold or whatever. It seems like athletes kick 40 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: it a lot quicker than the rest of us do. So, Yeah, 41 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: talk to me about Lyle Collins and Tyron Smith. Well, 42 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: I think that Tyron Smith. They still saying that he is, 43 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 1: uh it was promising to play, but he hasn't practiced yet. 44 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: They're gonna try to get him out there Friday tomorrow 45 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: to see if he can do something. Can I do 46 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,959 Speaker 1: my best Nick impression real quick? He's gonna play. He's 47 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: gonna play. I don't think you don't think he's gonna play. 48 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it like that. That does That's I'm 49 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: just saying that's what you say. It's you typically say 50 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: it about the other teams. Yes, you're like, he's gonna play, 51 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: he's Odell Beckham, he's Tyrant Smith. Though he's Tyron Smith, 52 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: he's a mutant. But I don't do that as it's 53 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: like I didn't do that. Boy Davante Adams like him. Yeah, 54 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: you don't think he was gonna play? Yeah, but but 55 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: I think that if I had to guess, I would 56 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: say Tyre and plays Lyau doesn't. I agree with that, 57 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: But it is the Jets, and I hope that doesn't 58 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: factor into anything but okay, but see when you say 59 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: it's the Jets, when you're arguing whether or not you 60 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: sit like you're running back. You know, like if Zeke 61 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: had had knocked up ankle right now, you know, an 62 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: ankle bruise, maybe you have that conversation because you have backups. 63 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: But like, I don't want to send Dak out there 64 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: against any NFL team without either of his tackles. That's 65 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: a terrible idea. If the Cowboys were five and oh, 66 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: then yeah, you can delimit things with well, it's the 67 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: Jets like they're three and two right now. They need 68 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: every game and and so for me, I don't I would. 69 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: I would look at it as he's able to play 70 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: or is he not able to play? If he's not 71 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: able to play us one thing. If he's able to play, 72 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: then put him out there. I don't. I don't hold 73 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: back just because of the opponent, in my opinion, not 74 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: where they are right now, if it was. If it was, 75 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: I think they do that. I mean, and I don't 76 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: think it's as easy as saying black white, like he 77 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: is able to play or he's not. Yeah, he's gonna play. 78 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: He's probably gonna be limping around and if after the 79 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: Saints game, Danny, I'll let you answer this. At the 80 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: Saints game, you saw that injury, you were like, he's 81 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: gonna miss least one game, maybe two, And you're looking 82 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: at it and you're like, well, Packers, you don't want 83 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: to miss that one. But yeah, it's the Jets. You 84 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: could probably miss that one getting ready for the Eagles. Yeah, 85 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: but I don't think the Cowboys are in your position 86 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: where they could use that as an excuse, Like Derek 87 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: was saying like this that the Cowboys need to get 88 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,919 Speaker 1: back to winning games. You don't want to start getting 89 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: on this losing streak and lose to the Jets, who 90 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: haven't won a game yet. You don't want to be 91 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: that team and then you don't have momentum going forward, 92 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: and then you start losing confidence. I agree. I don't 93 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: think they're in a position where you can say, but 94 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: there are the Jets. If he needs another week, that's fine, 95 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: and they're not near their bye week. Can they win 96 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: without them? I see, But that's that's what it goes back, 97 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: So you see it's I think it's I think it's different. 98 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: Like if you told me Layton Vanderesh wasn't feeling great, 99 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,559 Speaker 1: But on Saturday, I'd be like, yeah, it's the Jets 100 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 1: sid him. You got Shawn Lee, you got Joe Thomas. 101 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: You can get through this game without Layton Vanderesha. Is 102 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: that anything to do with how he played the last 103 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: game a little bit? Yeah? I mean, like he's not 104 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: playing that amazing. You know, you're missing a whole lot 105 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 1: Smith though. Tyron Smith is just a different story, not 106 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: only because of how good he is at his position 107 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: and what he does for like everything, but also again, 108 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: I don't want my quarterback to get murder, and so 109 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: if he's healthy enough to play, then I would play him. 110 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 1: That's even in preseason games though, right, literally, you don't 111 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: want to throw my quarterback out in the preseason in game, 112 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: in a game that legitimately didn't matter. Last year, preseason game, 113 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: they sat Dak because Tyron couldn't go, and I mean 114 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: Zach couldn't go either, and blah blah blah. You know, 115 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: I think the hardest hit that Dak has taken since 116 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: I remember any of these games since he's been here, 117 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: I think was against the Saints a couple of weeks ago. 118 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: He threw a pass. Remember that he threw that. He 119 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: threw a pass kind to the right flat. Maybe in 120 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: the first half he got smashed, like the one to 121 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: w Yeah on the on the right side. Life he 122 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: hit Witten on the sideline. Was early in the game. Yeah, 123 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: I don't remember. I think Cam Jordan, I think it 124 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: was a combination. He got destroyed. I do remember what 125 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: you're talking about. I mean, it happens. He takes hits, 126 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: and but like we've said a couple of weeks ago, 127 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: when when Cam was out there, I think he was 128 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: rushing the ball and forcing it. I'm not saying that 129 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 1: nobody can beat like the Jests can't win the game. 130 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 1: Not saying that, but I'm saying if he's not healthy 131 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: and they're rushing him back, I don't know if you're 132 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: rush him back for anyone, especially in a game like this, 133 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: word they should be able to win. They should be 134 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: able to win. I think we're kind of saying the 135 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: same thing because I agree with you from the standpoint 136 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: that I don't think you necessarily like rushing guys back. 137 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: That's a that's a dicey thing. Rushing guys back if 138 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,679 Speaker 1: they can play and they can play reliably and they're 139 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: not going to cause increased damage to themselves. Then I'm 140 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: all in. But I know in the NFL, and I 141 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: know that look that you have David the NFL, like, yeah, 142 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: they're probably guys to get back out there before their 143 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: bodies are really ready to be back out there. Always um. 144 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: But but I also don't think that you should make 145 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: that decision based upon the opponent. Me personally, I think not. 146 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: Not when you're three and two team. If you're five 147 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: an old team, yeah, I think you have some leeway 148 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: to be able to say, you know, let's take a 149 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: little chance here. We think we feel pretty good that 150 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: we can win without him, so let's go ahead and 151 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: take that chance. At three and two, you need every game, 152 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: which means, in my opinion, you need all hands on deck, 153 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: every player that is capable of playing, uh and and 154 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,239 Speaker 1: and not sitting anyone that that that's you know, it's 155 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: really don't have to. This is the difference between talk 156 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: radio and like reality for what they say, because they 157 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: don't even look at any of that stuff, or at 158 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: least they don't say it publicly. Right, They're just gonna 159 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: be like, well, if he's ready to play, he will play. 160 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: If he's not ready to play. He won't play simple 161 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: as that doesn't matter for playing the AFC Pro Bowl team. 162 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: Or we're playing the Jets and the gray happens in 163 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: the room and then we're not Yeah, the door and 164 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,239 Speaker 1: they're like, can can we beat these guys behind closed doors? 165 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: They absolutely say stuff that how good is he gonna be?

Are you ready 230 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: to give us your New York Jet defense scouting report? Yes? 231 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: I can do that. Um, the New York Jets, it's 232 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: honestly like they have I don't want to say an 233 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: impressive amount of talent, but they have more talent than 234 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: I think they do an offense just because they've invested 235 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,719 Speaker 1: resources there. Um, they're still playing. They're playing a three 236 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: four under Greg Williams. M. Leonard Williams is still there. 237 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: Arguably the top talent in the draft back in I 238 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: want to say twenty fifteen. He's a three to four 239 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: in pass rusher, running stopper kind of guy. Um. Obviously 240 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: the name the name to know if you know any 241 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: name is Jim Jamal Adams. He's there, you know, kind 242 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: of their their leader, their heartbeat, the top five pick. 243 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,959 Speaker 1: Actually Hebron's own Dallas fan, the Hebrew and Hammer right 244 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: up the road here in the Carrollton area. Jamal Adams. 245 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: They gave a bunch of money to Trumaine Johnson at cornerback. 246 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: They gave a bunch of money to C. J. Mosley. 247 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: He's not going to play in this game. Good player though, 248 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, he's great, Like that makes a world 249 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 1: of beaver backers. That makes a world of difference. Came 250 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: up from Baltimore. If he was playing in this game, 251 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: I would be a decent bit more nervous about it. 252 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: But the production hasn't. Really it's not let me let 253 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: me change that. They're actually they're pretty good for what 254 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: they're dealing with. Like their thirteenth in total defense twenty 255 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: first and pass yards per game not great, top ten 256 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 1: against the run eighty eight yards per game twenty five, 257 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: twenty fifth in points per game at twenty five points 258 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: per game, which to me, like it kind of reminds 259 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: me the twenty fifteen Cowboys. Honestly, because their defense is 260 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: talented enough to keep up with some of these teams 261 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: and they just wear down because their offense doesn't give 262 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: him a ton of help. I will say the Patriots 263 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: kind of jumped out on him. Like the Patriots I 264 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: think scored on their first two possessions, So like they're 265 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: not this impenetrable unit, but they're good enough to hang 266 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: with you. Like they're not just atrocious. I don't think 267 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: they don't get sacks, though they do. That's the thing is, 268 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: like they don't Going back to the conversation about the tackles, 269 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 1: they don't really have a pass rusher, not one that 270 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: just strikes fear into your heart. Jordan Jenkins is a 271 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: name that I think you should know. Third round pick 272 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,119 Speaker 1: out of Georgia. He's been there for a few years. 273 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: He hasn't been amazing, but he will probably be going 274 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: against the right tackle, which will probably be Cam Fleming 275 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: or brand No. When I would say, well, I would 276 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: say Cam Fleming or Lyle Collins. I don't think Lyle 277 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: is going to play. But Jason Garrett said today if 278 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: Tyrant plays, then Cam would probably move to right tackle. 279 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: He's their swing tackles, so they expect him to be 280 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 1: able to do both. So I don't think it'll be 281 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: Brandon Knight because I think Tyron will play. If Tyron 282 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 1: doesn't play, then it would be either way. You're talking 283 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: about probably a favorable or at least a compromised matchup 284 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 1: for Jordan Jenkins. That's something to watch. Nathan Shepherd another 285 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: good player. He's on a six game suspension, so he's 286 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: not there, but they're leading Their leading guy right now 287 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: is a guy by the name of Neville Hewitt with 288 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: two sacks. They don't get after the quarterback that well, 289 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: So I feel like that's a break for what is 290 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: a gimpy offensive line back has two sacks? He does, yeah, 291 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: which I'm sure. What's the Cowboys leading three? Oh yeah, Quinnon. 292 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: So I mean this early in the season, I get that, 293 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: but you just don't see him, in my opinion, generate 294 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: a ton of pressure. Another thing to watch. Brian actually 295 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: wrote about this today. But Steve McClendon. They got him 296 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: this year. He's new. He's their nose tackle. He's gonna 297 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: play head up on Travis Frederick. He's pretty good. I've 298 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: never heard of him before I started watching him and 299 00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: kind of reading up on the Jets. But he's a 300 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: he's a good player. Typical nose tackle like hard to move, 301 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: trash can, full of dirt, but he gets a surprising 302 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: amount of penetration since that's not necessarily what nose tackles do. 303 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: I think that'll be a fun matchup for Travis Frederick, 304 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: see who gets the better of that. But they I 305 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: think it helps that C. J. Mosley isn't gonna play, 306 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: but like they could gunk this up for Zeke and 307 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: at least you know it's not just going to be 308 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 1: a breeze. I don't think I'll throw this. I was 309 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: looking at there at the running game, and I saw 310 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: what you just mentioned about them having the seventh best 311 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: rush defense in the NFL. But if you go and 312 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: look at the teams as they've played, haven't really to 313 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: play teams that you would consider to be power running teams, 314 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: teams that are committed to the run. They have Buffalo 315 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: and Week one, Devin Singletary rushed for seventy yards. He 316 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: was at a leading rusher, but he did it only 317 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: on four carry, so he had a big run. Broke one. Yeah, 318 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: you had a Chubb. Against Cleveland, he had eighteen carres 319 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: for sixty two yards or three point four average Rex 320 00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: Burkhart with New England, Chubb has been dynamic. No, no, no, 321 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: I get that. I'm not saying he wasn't. What I'm 322 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: saying is they didn't really run a ton and I 323 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: don't think you would consider them to be a team 324 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: that's committed to the run, like you look at Dallas. 325 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: Dallas as a team that's committed to the run. There 326 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: are a few teams around the NFL that are committed 327 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: to the run like that and have that kind of 328 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: dynamic runner, and I don't know if they've played in 329 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: them again, same thing for for Rex in New England, 330 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: same thing for Jordan Howard in Philadelphia. These are all 331 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: guys that are kind of running back by committee. They 332 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: run as necessary. They aren't really teams that are that 333 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: you would consider to be running teams. All that being said, 334 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: though the averages are pretty good. You look at Philadelphia, 335 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: they average four point eight to carry New England four 336 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: point three. Obviously Philadelphia got them pretty good and got 337 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: and like I, you know, to my amateur, I at 338 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: least like I don't know how well disciplined they are, 339 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: Like they seem like they get out of position a lot. 340 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: Trumaine Johnson, we know him from the Rams. He's the 341 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: guy that started that. He was one of the instigators 342 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: of that brawl at training camp a few years ago. 343 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: He feisty, he's aggressive, but like undisciplined. I feel like 344 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: you could use that against him. Marcus May. Their other 345 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: safety was the guy if you remember the Jets game 346 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: where O'Dell went like ninety three yards, everybody was making 347 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: fun of him because he sort of like ran in 348 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: a circle, like he got the lead blocker. He got 349 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 1: so turned around by O'Dell that he basically ran in 350 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: a circle. He looked like the pace car for Yeah, 351 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: it was just kind of come on this way to 352 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: the end zone and he like, I'm not going to 353 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: try to tackle you. He's like, this is this is 354 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: the path coming with you. I don't I don't think 355 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 1: they're well disciplined. I think play action screens and things 356 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: of that natures doing that. No, well, I don't want 357 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 1: to gush too much about Jamal Adams, but like you 358 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,239 Speaker 1: know where he went to school. I just he's so 359 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 1: much fun to watch Hebren, You're right, and also Louisiana 360 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: State El Presidente President Mall. He's so much fun to watch, 361 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: Like I know, like you want the Cowboys to win. 362 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: I get that, but like just keep an eye on 363 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 1: him because he's just the most fun Swiss arm knife. Like, yeah, 364 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: he's a safety, but he's like the field general type 365 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: of guy who's lining people up. His instincts are incredible. 366 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 1: I actually the Jets put out a video with Adam Gase. 367 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: I think it was the Cleveland game, but like Adams 368 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: is down on the line, like pointing out the splits. 369 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: He's like, this is what they're gonna do, and this 370 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,719 Speaker 1: is what I want y'all to do. And he just 371 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: nice through the line and tackles Chubb like behind the line, 372 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: and Gas was like narrating it. He was like, he 373 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 1: drives me crazy as an offensive play caller because when 374 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: you see a safety doing that, like you failed because 375 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: he diagnosed the whole thing before the ball was even snapped. 376 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 1: And like he's just that smart. Like he drives me 377 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: crazy in practice. That's what Gay said. He's like, he 378 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: drives me crazy in practice because he does this three 379 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: or four times a day. I would guess he's going 380 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: to live in the box and try to make life 381 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 1: difficult on seek. So we know Jabal Adams is a 382 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 1: guy that can change the game. Is there any other 383 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: player on this defense that you would consider to be 384 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 1: a dangerous player, Like if we come in here Monday morning, 385 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 1: win or loss, we're saying, you know, that guy made 386 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,719 Speaker 1: it tough on the Dallas Cowboys to do what they 387 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 1: wanted to do. I think it would be Adams because 388 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 1: mostly is with hamstring. Yeah, well we know, we know 389 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: Adam Adams. Is there anybody, I don't think there's one 390 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: that I would say. I think it is a major threat. 391 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: Leonard Williams is probably better than he gets talked about. Four. 392 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: But that's the position that he plays, you know, like 393 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: it's a kind of a thankless position. Um. But again, 394 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: like you're talking about it, like if they gunk up 395 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: the run game, I think that could be why and 396 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: and he could put some pressure again if you're you're 397 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: talking about a compromised offensive line, and McLendon too for 398 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: that matter. I mean, if you know Frederick will see 399 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,719 Speaker 1: how he handles that, because like you don't see the center, 400 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,239 Speaker 1: I mean you don't see guys have one on one 401 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: matchups that often like centers are typically available to help 402 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 1: out with guys to either side of them. And I 403 00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 1: don't think that's gonna be the case this week. So 404 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the point in the game where 405 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: you know, and we all know this, if if they 406 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: don't run the ball, then you you're putting everything on 407 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 1: Dac and Dak at times can can do well. But 408 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: if he's having depressed too much, like we saw last week, 409 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: he could struggle. And when you look at the offensive line, 410 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 1: Tyrant's banged up, he may not play. Lyle's banged up 411 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: even more, he might not play as well. To Zack 412 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: Martin has been dealing with back injury. Frederick. I think 413 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: Frederick is back to one hundred percent, but we'll see 414 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: against a match up like this, and Connor Williams I 415 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: think is the weakest part of the line when they're 416 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: all healthy. He's had his moment. So when you look 417 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: at the jet, you got McClendon, who you said is 418 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: a you know, a good player in there. You got 419 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 1: a first round pick, in top six pick I think 420 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 1: in Leonard, and you got a top pick in Quinnin Williams, right, 421 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: he's even mentioned Quin Williams. He's well, he's been hurt. 422 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: He's limited, first round pick, top three pick, monster, yea monster. 423 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: And then you know, and then you got something to watch. 424 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 1: He's been on the injury report, not one hundred percent 425 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 1: sure if he's going to play. And then I don't 426 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: know if that Anderson is it Henry Harry Anderson. Henry Anderson, 427 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: the guy that had a shoulder. He's been a good 428 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: player for them. He pull up the injury. He had 429 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: eight sacks for them last year. So and he's a 430 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: guy that that plays. They have a lot of games, 431 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: an interior guy. Yeah, I think he's a tackle. I 432 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 1: won't be surprised if running the ball is a challenge 433 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 1: for them in this game. It's like everything we just 434 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: set about their front and then if there's a safety 435 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: who can really limit what you do in the run game, 436 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: Jamal Adams is one of them. Um. But this is 437 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: huge for Gallup and Cooper because they can beat anybody 438 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: off the line, and that's seen that I didn't have 439 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 1: to just stretch it that way. And then I like 440 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: that matchup. Like May Marcus May, the other safety. He 441 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: was a second round pick. He hasn't really lived up 442 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: to the hype of where he was drafted. And I 443 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 1: think Trummay Johnson's a pretty overrated player. I think there 444 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,639 Speaker 1: was like a There was a report that came out that, like, 445 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,360 Speaker 1: the Jets are concerned that he doesn't really care about football. 446 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: This was like a month ago or something like that, 447 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: which never something you want to hear about a guy 448 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: that you gave a boatload of money to um. But yeah, 449 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 1: it's I mean, I like that matchup for the receivers, 450 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 1: which makes me feel better about the fact that it 451 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 1: might be a tough day for Zeke. It's a matter 452 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 1: of not cheating yourself in the foot, which has been 453 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: a problem for them, you know, because you're right and 454 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: you say that, and that sounds very cliche, but it's not. 455 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 1: You get a holding penalty. It's first and twenty Now. Now, 456 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 1: running the ball a couple of times with Zeke is 457 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 1: not favorable because even if he has four yards to carry, 458 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: you're still looking at third and twelve, so you know, 459 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: you can't get behind the chains that way. I think 460 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: that they're better equipped than they were last year to 461 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: make that. I mean, had their first and twenty five 462 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: and they got just throw a deep deep de Zeke here, 463 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: you know, deep de Zeke right in front of Garrett 464 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: kind of we thought that was gonna get him off 465 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: the hook, but it didn't. We still talked about it. 466 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 1: People started saying ball don't lie when that happened, and 467 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: it made me laugh like Rashid Wallets. You know it's funny. Good. 468 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: Sorry but yeah, no, go ahead, sorry no, I was 469 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 1: gonna say, apologizing. We'll take our final We'll take our 470 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: final break here, we'll come back.

I don't know if I've ever seen 529 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: the cow Cowboys and Jets. I actually think it's white 530 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: and blue like that. Maybe I think it's six games 531 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: in blue and two games in color rush. Oh okay, 532 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: I think yeah, sorry, did one color rush? Right? Yeah? 533 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: So Thanksgiving it will be the other US. So I 534 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 1: think it's actually the Vikings. Really yeah, I think I 535 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 1: don't look cool. Well, I don't know a lot of 536 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: you know what's it's refreshing to me that you know, 537 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: we'll see three different uniforms with regularity instead of fourteen 538 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: games in the whites. I kind of wish you'd have 539 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: more like I listen too, would just go the route 540 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: of like college and give me a lot of different 541 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,719 Speaker 1: variety of Oregon. Not that much variety. I'm gonna sound 542 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 1: I'm gonna pound the drum for a royal blue Cowboys 543 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: uniform until I get it. It would be look weird 544 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: if it matched the other colors, right, unifor wouldn't that 545 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: be crazy? Yet?

You know? I'm okay, sir, I have 552 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: a question about the coaching. Okay, okay, all we ever, 553 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: everyone get us a coach. It's gonna go for blood. 554 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: I mean the way that Garrett has told him our game, 555 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: he's always happy about everything, and I'm just i just 556 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: want to coach. It has a little bit more fire 557 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 1: on him and that a hold of player accountable on 558 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: television and not you know, second for him at the 559 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: press conference. Is this a recorded call? Like is this live? 560 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: Or did you call last week? Because I mean I 561 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: did not call. I mean, I'm just saying, of all 562 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: the times to make that call, I wouldn't think it 563 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: would be this week. Well, sir, I mean, I'm I'm 564 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: just I'm a cowboy fan and I've been here to 565 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: do and the bad. Do you watch the Packer game? Yes, sir, 566 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: I watched the whole game. It was it was a 567 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: heart wrenching. Yeah. I mean, I hear what you're saying, 568 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: and I know one game doesn't change everything and all that, 569 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: but like, it's just funny that that that Garrett doesn't 570 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: have the fire stuff would come out this week when 571 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: he got a fifteen yard penalty for losing its basically 572 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 1: losing a school and doing something. Now, I know that's 573 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: not every game, but I'm just it just seems am 574 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: not the only one that seems like I think people 575 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: make a joke too. He's such a big clapper and 576 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: everyone likes We've covered that. Yeah, but that's doesn't mean 577 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: he doesn't have passion and everything. As I've made this 578 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: analogy before, like as somebody who doesn't outwardly emote very often. 579 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 1: It drives me crazy that people think that that means 580 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: you don't care. Like, it's just people react to things 581 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: different ways. And you know, I mean, first of all, yeah, Garrett, 582 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,239 Speaker 1: it's it was really funny, like if a player had 583 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: done that and cost the team fifteen yards, everyone would 584 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 1: have lost their mind and hated him forever. But Garrett 585 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,239 Speaker 1: emotes so rarely. Everyone was thrilled to see him get mad. 586 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: Everyone a lot of here Freeport. Well, yeah, it's weird 587 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: timing that this week of all weeks, like after he 588 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: flipped out for the first time in his life, he 589 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: wants to see more. I don't I never understood that, 590 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: which I have the privilege of seeing Jason Garrett every day, 591 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: and I mean you can go watch All or Nothing 592 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: and see what he's like behind the scenes, like that 593 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: was such a great look, Like he isn't like that 594 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: when he's actually coaching the team. He's just an even 595 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: keel guy on game day. It's never bothered me. No, 596 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I respect the hell out of Chris Richard, 597 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 1: but it doesn't seem like fans are into his passionate 598 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: routine right now because the defense is still struggling. And 599 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: by the way, he called the whole defense up this 600 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 1: last game and the game before and gave him a 601 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: fiery speech, and guess what, they went back out there 602 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: and they still give up more points. I mean, there 603 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: is no right, no exact way that you have to coach. 604 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: Like coaching is, you have to be true to who 605 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: you are, because if you're not that's the other part. 606 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: If you're not true to who you are, your players 607 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: are gonna look at you and role their eyes. Like, 608 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: whoever Garrett is, he has to be true to that 609 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: with his players. Whoever Rochard is, he has to be 610 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: true to that to players. And guess what. There have 611 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: been coaches in this league that have been very successful 612 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: that are mile mannered. There have been some coaches that 613 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: have sucked, that have been like fiery and always scowling 614 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: and going off on the play it. There is no 615 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: one way that's going to lead to successful a coach. Okay, 616 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: the accountability is the part that's important. I think he 617 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: does all these players accountable. Tom Landry was not, like 618 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: I was not even alive when he coached the Cowboys. 619 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: But wasn't he like the most mild mannered He wore 620 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: a suit on the sunny Dungee Tony Dungee because notorious 621 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: for standing out and not really losing it, certainly not 622 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: losing it. People are dismissed that part. Let's listen, miss 623 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: but let's let now. We got a lot of people 624 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: that are listening. They're like, all right, well, here's the 625 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: real problem, whether it's fiery or not, how about what 626 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: is going on with this team and from what you 627 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: can blame the coaching staff is is that for whatever 628 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: the reason, they're not ready to play in the first quarter. 629 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: They got by with it with the Dolphins, the Giants, 630 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: the Redskins. They did not get by with it with 631 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: the Saints, and sure it's hell didn't with the Green Bay. 632 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: So that is the problem right now. Is whether or 633 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: not he needs to be throwing flags right before pregame, 634 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, but whatever it is, like, that's the issue. 635 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's if it's how mad you 636 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: get on the sideline, but if we want to you know, 637 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: put points and fingers to the coach and staff, is 638 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: that these guys are not ready to play football for 639 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: some reason and it's cost them the last two weeks. 640 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: I've actually, I've gone back and forth with that. I 641 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: actually I asked Barry Church about it on cover for 642 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 1: this week, where I was like, you know, every morning, 643 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: every morning, and that you want to watch, thank you. 644 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: It's I don't know exactly how to feel about that 645 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: because it's like, well, they're not ready to play. That's 646 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,719 Speaker 1: on the coach and I agree with that to a degree. 647 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: But then Dak throws a pass to a wide open 648 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: to Marii Cooper and it bounces off his hands and 649 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: it's an interception. Like is that the coach's fault? Like 650 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 1: because they zipped up and down the field throughout the 651 00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: first half, and like, what is Jason Garrett supposed to 652 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: do about the fact that the player didn't catch the 653 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: ball or the quarterback didn't see the safeties sitting on 654 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: the throw. The coaches can only do so much about execution, 655 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: which and I'm not trying to absolve Jason Garrett, but 656 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: I really I am conflicted with that because I'm like, well, 657 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: the team wasn't ready to play. They fell into a 658 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: seventeen nothing hole. That's on coaching. But then you're like, well, 659 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: I can pick out about half a dozen reasons where 660 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: the players just didn't execute something that would have worked otherwise. 661 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: And I think it's a little bit of both. I mean, 662 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 1: there's plenty of blame to go around. When you are 663 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: down thirty one to three, there's no doubt, and that 664 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: always becomes the argument. Even in situations where the players 665 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: should have executed. Then you say, well, why aren't the 666 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: players executing. It still is the coach's responsibility. Well not 667 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 1: even just that, but just it still is the coach's 668 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: responsibility to get his team in a position where they 669 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 1: can execute right, and yet they have to be accountable 670 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: for executing and doing that. But at the end of 671 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: the day, it still always goes back to the head coach. 672 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: It begins and end with the head coach. So yeah, 673 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 1: I think those are all fair criticisms. I just get 674 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 1: a little tired when people start going to the stuff 675 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: that's off around that. That's not the stuff that's important. 676 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: It's it's the team and how they're performing and whether 677 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: the tea the coach is getting them ready to perform 678 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: their best. I guess you know, that's a fair point 679 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: because last week's probably not good to say that about 680 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: the coaching staff or whatever. Aaron Rodgers goes out there 681 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 1: was it. I don't know if it was a three 682 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: and out, but they punted quick, cowboys got the ball 683 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: and it was three and now they got the ball, 684 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: went down three or four plays. Cooper catches that ball. 685 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 1: He's I don't know if he scores, but it's probably 686 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: first in goal from the inside. That's what I'm saying. 687 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: Is like, yeah, they actually yeah, and they it's not 688 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: like they went three and out three times in a 689 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: rotist which actually happened in the playoff game against the Packers. 690 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: Like they couldn't do anything at the start of that game. 691 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: If you want to blame that on coaching, I'm listening. 692 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: But like they literally they didn't play the right quarterback. 693 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 1: Oh good god, I'm not kidding. But they moved the ball. 694 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: They moved the ball at will at the start of 695 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: this game, and to Danny's point, could not get out 696 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: of their own way. I don't know how much of 697 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: that lex on the coach, but he's still the coach, 698 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: and if you want to criticize him, he's handsomely paid 699 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: to put up with that. Absolutely, thanks for the call, 700 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: Pierre Reports. Not trying to kill you too much. I 701 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: just I disagree with you, bro. All right, let's get 702 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,959 Speaker 1: a call. Actually, this a tweet from Brian stim He says, 703 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 1: does Zeke look slower since his rookie year? And he 704 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 1: makes references in fact, you don't see as many of 705 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: those sixty yard bursts. You hadn't have those those big 706 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: long runs. What do you guys think about him? And 707 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 1: kind of where he is at this point his career. 708 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 1: I haven't seen that. It's true, we haven't seen that 709 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: run um slower M. Maybe you know what he might be. 710 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: It's okay to say that he might be. He's been 711 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,479 Speaker 1: hit a lot since his rookie year. Um, you find 712 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 1: a lot of rookies, like a lot of running backs 713 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 1: that way when you when you go and you look 714 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 1: at them the rookie year and you come back and go, 715 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: that's not the way they are anymore. I mean, it 716 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 1: just kind of happens. Not an excuse, but uh, you 717 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: don't have to be that guy that that makes all 718 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: those long runs. I mean, that's not exactly why they 719 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: pay him, but it would be nice to break one 720 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: every now and again. And how many I'm not I 721 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 1: don't necessarily disagree. I know this, which I hope the 722 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: Zeke is fat narrative is long dead. I see the 723 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: guy in the locker room every day. He's not fat bad, 724 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 1: He's in fantastic shape. So I'm just I'm legitimately trying 725 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 1: to remember. I know, Week five, Cincinnati, twenty sixteen, he 726 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: took it right up the gut, split the safety's sixty 727 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: yard touchdown. How many other genuine house calls did he 728 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: make as a rookie. He wants to say Detroit or 729 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: Tampa those games had a long one against Tampa. Yes, 730 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 1: I think that's true. And he had the eighty nine 731 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: yards screen against the Steelers. I don't ever think of 732 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: that as just blazing speed. He was kind of bothered 733 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: and with the next year with the screen pass for 734 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: different because you're following blocks and yeah, but there still 735 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: is an element of speed run since his rookie year. 736 00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know off the top of my 737 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: head neither why. I mean I would. He definitely did 738 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 1: it a few times as a rookie. He hasn't done 739 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 1: it as much since. Has he lost a step? Is 740 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,359 Speaker 1: that about an increased attention like tames come into games 741 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 1: now saying we're not going to let him do that. 742 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 1: I bet the longest run was the one he hurdled 743 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: the guy in Philly, which would have been probably a 744 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:25,399 Speaker 1: thirty five yard touchdown. No, No, I would would have been. Yeah, yeah, 745 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 1: maybe that's not as long as run. I will figure 746 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: it out. Yeah, I don't necessarily think it's wrong, but 747 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: I all, I mean, he's still plenty father reason why 748 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,839 Speaker 1: he's he's he's leading the league in explosive runs, which 749 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: coaches twenty plus, no twelve. That's the thing, is a 750 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: coach's idea. You know, fans want to see forty and 751 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: fifty yard runs and that's fun. But to a coach, 752 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:51,439 Speaker 1: it's twelve plus and it passes sixteen plus. And he's 753 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: got a lot of those multiple sea this year or 754 00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 1: since he's known just this season. I think he's got 755 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: I haven't looked since the Packer game, but I think 756 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 1: he's got fifteen or something like that. Like it's impressive. 757 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: So I don't necessarily think it's wrong because he hasn't 758 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 1: scored a touchdown from a long way away in a while. 759 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 1: But I'm not worried about it either. Okay, I have 760 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 1: a question for you, ays from Devin. Don't laugh at this. 761 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 1: Think about it for a second before you answer. Are 762 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: we missing tackle at all? I mean, I don't if 763 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: he was, if he was here, would he be active? 764 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm gonna say no, I think so. 765 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: I don't, Like, I don't think that like talent wasn't 766 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,360 Speaker 1: the whole story there, Like there was clearly a rift. 767 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 1: He was clearly in the doghouse, and no It's cliche, 768 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: but like I sometimes players just need a change of 769 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 1: scenery and he like if he had a ten sacks 770 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: season for Miami, I don't I feel like he wouldn't 771 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 1: have done that here. You know, he were here, would 772 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: we be wanting to see him over Quinn? No, I 773 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,320 Speaker 1: don't think so. Absolutely not. Yeah, I mean that's what 774 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: it and butt their guys. I mean, they wrote take 775 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,319 Speaker 1: their guys, so he would he would still probably still 776 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: be inactive, just because for whatever reason. It's he had 777 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 1: fallen out of favor with the coaching staff or at 778 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 1: least the people that were making decisions as to how 779 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: much he was going to play. And I think he 780 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: probably was over them just as much as they were 781 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,800 Speaker 1: over him. And I just I think that's part of it. 782 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 1: Carry hiders played well. Doren's Armstrong had a sack last week. 783 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: I mean, so you don't think the talented defensive end 784 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 1: is the issue. They're just not getting sacks right now. 785 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: There are other things that are caught right now. I 786 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 1: don't know the last two weeks, I'm not super concerned 787 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: about the pass rush. Like they got to Bridgewater five times. 788 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 1: Rogers is a different animal. They still got him twice, 789 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: and there were another handful of plays where he had 790 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: to do something miraculous to avoid a sack. Lawrence almost 791 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 1: killed him on the shovel pass. Ye, So I think 792 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 1: they're fine right now. Like set I mean, I know 793 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: that wasn't super convincing, the seven seven sacks in the 794 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 1: last two games, and Green Bay was bringing anybody and 795 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 1: everybody that could help deal with Lawrence. They were using receivers, 796 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 1: they were using tight ends. That doesn't it doesn't worry 797 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: me right now. I think that'll be okay, all right. 798 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: Since his a key year seventeen, eighteen and nineteen, zekee zeke. 799 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: How many rushers do you think he's had over thirty 800 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: yards over thirty uh two years Memory had the suspension, 801 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna say three. I would guess over twenty 802 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:39,399 Speaker 1: over thirty thirty, I would guess eight five. Three nailed it. God, 803 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 1: I'm good. Only three. That's he has not done it 804 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: a lot year. In seven twenty seventeen, member he missed 805 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: six games. That was against the Redskins. Then he last 806 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 1: year he had a forty seven at home against Philly. 807 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:56,840 Speaker 1: Don't remember that forty one against the Redskins. Also, he 808 00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 1: doesn't do it often, and like you know, it doesn't 809 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 1: happen off and in the NFL either anyway. But like 810 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 1: Nick Chopp just went eighty eight against Baltimore's I mean, 811 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: it would be fun to see that more often. But 812 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 1: if he's leading the league in n explosive I mean 813 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 1: twelve plus yard runs, it's not sexy, but it's it 814 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: gets the job done. Like I'm not losing, and most 815 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 1: coaches are probably rather have that than have a guy 816 00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 1: that gets you. Yeah, but every seven eight, But you 817 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:26,399 Speaker 1: could have both. But what's the what's the flip side? 818 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 1: Right now, in five games, there's the only team in 819 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,919 Speaker 1: the league that's got two receivers averaging hundred yards a game, 820 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:36,319 Speaker 1: and that's gallop in Cooper. So they're you know, yeah, 821 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 1: he's not getting these big long runs because they're making 822 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: sure of that. But on the on the other end, 823 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 1: these receivers are I mean some of these passes to 824 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: Cooper with him just being wide open with no safety help. 825 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just a great route runner who's got 826 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 1: deceptive speed and once he gets by the corner, there's 827 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: no one there. And the reason why there's no one 828 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 1: there because Zeke's not getting the ball going sixty yards again. 829 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 1: You know, so there's good and bad to it. I mean, 830 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: I get it, he might have lost the step a 831 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 1: little bit, but I still think he's very, very productive. 832 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: And I think that they're they're paid, they're taking advantage 833 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 1: of it. Do you think that's problematic though, from the 834 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 1: standpoint that they're able to do that in the passing game, 835 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,359 Speaker 1: but it's not really hurting teams to the point where 836 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 1: they're beating them. And I mean those two last two 837 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 1: teams that are really good teams. Yeah, the Cowboys are saying, 838 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 1: we will make you pay for having to do that, 839 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: but it's not resulting in them getting enough to be 840 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 1: able to get points. Do you think that that's a 841 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 1: problem for Yeah, I mean, yeah, there's other issues there too. 842 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 1: But and and there's a cycle of that, like Okay, 843 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 1: Gallup and Cooper will continue to do that, and then 844 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 1: teams will not let that happen, and then Zeke will 845 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 1: have a big run. But will they if it's not 846 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,839 Speaker 1: ending up in losses, then we'll teams say, hey, we'll 847 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,839 Speaker 1: we'll take the big plays by them, but we also 848 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 1: think they'll make enough mistakes to where we still can 849 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: beat them. We don't. We're still not gonna let Zeke 850 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 1: get off, right, right, I mean, I think, I mean, 851 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 1: I think it's going to take a long period of 852 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: them killing teams with the past before they don't make 853 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 1: Zeke their priority. I mean, the Saints game is so 854 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: weird because we just know how it is. I mean, 855 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 1: Randall Cobb, Let's say that pass over the middle, you know, 856 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 1: let's say there's no PI or whatever, and he gets 857 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: ten more yards. They rush up there, they still spike 858 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,960 Speaker 1: it with one second, ten more yards. They're kicking a 859 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 1: sixty yard field. I don't know if he makes it 860 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 1: or not, but if they win, we're not talking about 861 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:24,720 Speaker 1: the same issues that we're still there from the defense, 862 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 1: still there from the offense. You know, Jason Garrett is 863 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 1: a much different coach. If they make us, you know, 864 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: it's always happens like that. So the Packer game was 865 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:34,760 Speaker 1: more troubling though, for sure. Ye all right, we appreciate 866 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 1: you guys joining us. We are back tomorrow eleven forty 867 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 1: five till then predict even Dave Hellman, Danny Serect, I'm 868 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,400 Speaker 1: Derek Eagleson.
