Curious to see which one 77 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: of those guys because I know that earlier in the 78 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: week the front office said that they were looking to 79 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: activate both of them from the twenty one day practice 80 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: window as early as this week. They made one move 81 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: yesterday and waving Jalen the day before, waving Jalen Cropper, 82 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: who by the way, is back on the practice squad, 83 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: cleared Waivers got him. That being said, you still only 84 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: have one spot and if you're going to bring back 85 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: spotware on the fifty three, and that being said, with 86 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: Cayln Carson being full for the past several practices, I 87 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: feel like that's going to be the most certain activation 88 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: does make me wonder about Jonathan Mango because initially he 89 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: started out as full he was downgraded to limit it 90 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: because he has some soreness in his knee. As told 91 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: by Brian Schottenheimer, he's still not back at full yet. 92 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: He's practicing, but he's not back at full capacity just yet. 93 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: I feel like Kaylen Carson will be activated to the 94 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: fifty three man roster and maybe maybe another week for 95 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: Jonathan Ingle. But they got to make a decision Wednesday. 96 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: It has to be made by Wednesday of next week. 97 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 6: Can I make a bold prediction on the status of 98 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 6: Kayling Carson. 99 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,239 Speaker 1: To say with the chest on a Thursday. 100 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 6: I am almost positive, just personally from I don't know anything. 101 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: So it's just this is just an opinion, a gut feeling. 102 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 6: If you will, I bet you Kyer Elim is inactive 103 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 6: in place of Kalen Carson this week.

I know a lot of 174 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: fans are asking about Perry on Winfrey, but no update. 175 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 6: He was out there, Hey, what's happened to Prepare on Winfrey. 176 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: He's making progress, but we don't have a timeline for you. 177 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 6: Okay, thank you. 178 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: Same for Savone Revel. I know fans are asking about 179 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: him as well. The Maion over shown he is hitted 180 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: back so he could see his practice window opened as 181 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: early as nixt week. So shot he said one. He 182 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: said either next week or the next couple of weeks 183 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: or so. So I fully expect that the Marveon Overshown's 184 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: window will be opened before before the calendar flips to 185 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: November and his original date that he had circled thanks Thanksgiving. Right, 186 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: he's ahead of schedule by a little bit. But even 187 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: even if it's open next week, you think about next 188 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: few weeks. 189 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 3: He got twenty one days there, so it's getting right 190 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 3: up to that week before things. 191 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: So it's looking like he's on track for thanks On 192 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: the track is probably they're going to take They're going 193 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: to a factor in the bye week and everything into 194 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: everything is going to go into that decision, but soon 195 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: arrives or returns to marveon overshow. 196 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 6: And to be fair, and I had a discussion with 197 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 6: a big Nate about this, large Nathaniel Will Large Nathaniel. 198 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 6: We're talking in the lunch mom and the worst man, 199 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 6: uh talking about overshowing and basically, you know, just kind 200 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 6: of a Devil's advocate way to look at it. You know, 201 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 6: it's a kind of a negative aspect on it, where 202 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 6: it's like, you can't expect to be the same dude, 203 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 6: to be the same dude one coming back from an 204 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 6: injury like that again, and then to fix this defense. 205 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 1: You can't nothing. But let's step in the right direct 206 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: to step in the right druct. 207 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 6: But I want to collectively say, for talking Cowboys, we're 208 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 6: not saying to Marvin overshown in this offense, the worst 209 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 6: or in this defense, the worst defense in the league 210 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 6: currently is not going to make matters. 211 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: A whole lot better than you do. I need to sign, 212 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: Do I need to make a sign? Make a sign 213 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: sign for when comes. This does not imply, this does 214 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: not imply thirty second first take it to the top one. 215 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 6: But you certainly want him on the field. 216 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: I am excited for his journey. Yes, for somebody who 217 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 1: is has had their seasons taken from them numerous times. 218 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: I am excited for his journey. I genuinely want to see. 219 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: He's a good dude with great energy, great work ethic, 220 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: huge impact when he's on the field. Looking forward to 221 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 1: seeing him get back in the fold and adding to 222 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 1: this defense as we talk about the defense, getting ready 223 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: to talk about defense versus their offense. Yeah, this defense 224 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: has it has to change, Yes, And I can't imagine 225 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: that you go into a game against the Washington Commanders 226 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 1: and execute the same game plan that you've been going 227 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 1: into every game with. I can't foresee that I'm also 228 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: going to go ahead and see I'm going to see 229 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: you that I'm going to raise you one. Yeah, even 230 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,439 Speaker 1: if we and we will grant grace to the Marvionovershown 231 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: too when he returns. As far as getting ramped in 232 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: the absolutely, but to Maveon over shown in a ramp 233 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 1: up period on the field, it's still your best linebacker probably, 234 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: which means that when I when we say things like 235 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: help is on the way, we're not implying that he's 236 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: the end all be y'all to get you from thirty 237 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: second First, we're simply saying that, objectively speaking, he makes 238 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: your defense better, and the fact that he plays in 239 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: the heart of the defense that matters that much more. 240 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 3: I want to stick with the linebackers here because as 241 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 3: we're previewing the Dallas defense against the Washington offense, I 242 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 3: kind of want to go level by level year defensive, line, linebackers, secondary. 243 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 3: What would be your A through F grade for each 244 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 3: one of those units date to date six weeks into 245 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 3: the year. Because I'll start Let's start with the linebackers. 246 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 3: Since we were just talking about the Marvin overshow okay linebackers'. 247 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 3: We've of course had the criticism of Jack Sanborn and 248 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: the way that he's played. I've defended Kenneth Murray a 249 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 3: couple times on this show. He had an awful game 250 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 3: against Carolina. He was bad against Carolina. And that's not 251 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 3: to say he's a bad linebacker. I really don't think 252 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 3: he is. But he had a bad game playing and simple, 253 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,439 Speaker 3: just like Marislee, if Fall has had a couple of 254 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 3: bad games in a row, his direction got him. 255 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,599 Speaker 6: The defense was up physical in every aspect. Yes, in 256 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 6: every aspect on every level. 257 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: Playing and simple this week, as we already talk about 258 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: their offense. If misdirection got you last week, it's gonna 259 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 1: get you this, Oh my lord, Cliff Kingsbury's comment, Lord, and. 260 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 6: Then speaking of the defensive line, Kenny Clark probably had 261 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 6: his worst game as it definitely his worst game and 262 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 6: a game that you do not expect out of a 263 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 6: guy like Kenny Clark because of how well he's played 264 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 6: up until this point. But like I said, d. 265 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 3: Didn't play well, Solomon didn't play well, out physical on 266 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 3: every level. 267 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: But six weeks was playing well? 268 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 5: Was it? 269 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: They? They just got beat up. They just got beat up. 270 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 1: I think you know what I'm saying, Like there's both 271 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: things happened. The reason you didn't play well is because 272 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: you got beat up. You had a conversation and you 273 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: got pushed around. 274 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 3: I had a conversation with a staff member yesterday about 275 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 3: some of the conversations on the sideline. That was the 276 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 3: message being shown by the defensive staff throughout was we 277 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 3: are not playing our brand of football. We are not 278 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 3: having You're getting punked, is a great way to put it. 279 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 3: They didn't say that specifically, but they were saying, we're 280 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 3: being out physical, we're being pushed around. This is not 281 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 3: our brand of football, this is not the standard. And 282 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 3: that was what the staff as a whole on the 283 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 3: defensive side was saying. They were the ones that were 284 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 3: trying to bring accountability. There's also, in the eyes of 285 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 3: who I was talking to, there's maybe a lack of 286 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 3: leadership from a player standpoint on the defense, which we've 287 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 3: talked about before. We've had that conversation. Who are your 288 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 3: leaders on your defensive side of the ball. 289 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: I'm waiting. I'll give you maybe, but he's not a 290 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: vocal leader. Kenny Clark. Clark is brand new, so vocal leaders. 291 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: And Kenny also doesn't do a lot demo. 292 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 3: Demo might be your guy, and he's not available right now. 293 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 3: But that's the point is when the when the staff 294 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 3: is saying, but did you have wings across the board? 295 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: No, even even prior to the trade, you didn't have one. No, 296 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: probably not. 297 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 6: You had two of them last year. 298 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 3: Well, you expected Micah to be that, but he never 299 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 3: was going Michael was in a vocal he was Jeer. 300 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 6: DeMarcus Lawrence d. 301 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: Law could be. 302 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 3: But even d Law wasn't available for the majority of 303 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,479 Speaker 3: last year anyways. 304 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 6: Sweet, but you've had leaders on the defense before, and 305 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 6: now that you have a basically new. 306 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: Look, I'll give you one who's trying to be one 307 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: y one your time, one ye yeah. If he yeah, 308 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: one yea is most certainly see that. I don't know 309 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: that he's he doesn't have and he doesn't have on 310 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: the wall exactly, he doesn't have that. That would be 311 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: the only reason that you kind of hesitate putting the 312 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: that leadership thing on him. But however, he's vocal, he's 313 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: getting the starts now, he's he's playing well in his starts. 314 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: I could see him stepping into that road answer. 315 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 3: And no matter what the status of leadership is on 316 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 3: the defensive side of the football, having guys like that 317 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 3: that are accountable and that are at least trying to 318 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 3: keep the other guys within grasp accountable as well, that's 319 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 3: what you need to start. 320 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: Building the right direct and what we're referring to before 321 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: we hop onto the other stuff is when you're getting 322 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: beat up, when you're getting punked, call it what it is, right, 323 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: I don't STI I'm a black and white dude, Like, 324 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: tell me straight up, don't you know, well you know, 325 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: we're not playing our Brandon. You're getting punked, okay, man 326 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: taking your chain and running you off the ball. 327 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 6: Check like that, Grandmama, give me that. 328 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: It's a physical game, right, This is a man man 329 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: versus man game. Like you have individal battles and nobody 330 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: wants to hear that you're losing your battle to another man. 331 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: So you call a spade a spade when you're getting 332 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: your butt kicked. So they were getting their butt kicked. 333 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: So when you're having that happen, because it does happen, 334 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: there has to be somebody who vocally steps up physically, 335 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: you know, executing wise. You need you got to do 336 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: that for you can't just talk about it, right.

I'm like, hey, you 340 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: pick it up first before you say anything, exactly by example, 341 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: and then you then you can speak on it. Right, 342 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: So you can't just do one or the other. But 343 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: you need somebody to call a spade a spade in 344 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: that moment outside of coaches and be like, yeah, nah, 345 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: this is not about to go down like this, right, 346 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: and you have to change it. You have you have 347 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: to change it, bro. And there's going to be times. 348 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: There was times back in the day when I when 349 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm not here in Dallas, but when I was playing 350 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: quarterback and I had that leadership role where we were 351 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 1: getting our buts kicking. I'm like, hey, I y'all ain't 352 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: gonna do it. Bet, I'll do it. Yeah, And you 353 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: just straight up like, all right, you want you want 354 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: to keep getting beat up, you you go ahead and 355 00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: get beat up. I'll take care of it. Don't worry 356 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: about it. You know what I'm say, You take over that. 357 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 6: But doesn't it do what MYSELFE absolutely doesn't it feel 358 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 6: low in a lot of instances. That's what's also getting 359 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 6: us into trouble too, where it's like you have guys 360 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 6: that are trying to step up in those things, that 361 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 6: are getting out of position and trying to make the play. 362 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 1: It happens, you know, like getting out of their own assignment, 363 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: especially defensively and overplay. 364 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 6: And honestly, man, a performance like that against the Panthers, 365 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 6: you can't blame that on matter. Ebraflus Like, I really 366 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 6: don't think so. I don't think what he was doing 367 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 6: as far as his own defense and everything to put 368 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 6: those players into position to make plays. I don't think 369 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 6: that was necessarily the fault. It was guys trying to 370 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 6: clean up and make the play and trying to lead 371 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 6: by example by making the biggest. 372 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: Is not a scheme thing. This past game was not scheme. 373 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: You didn't get beat by your scheme. No. In weeks 374 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: prior to that, I would definitely say eberl yes, not 375 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: even just a scheme, but like the players within the 376 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: scheme were I don't know what the heck they were 377 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 1: doing sometimes right, So I don't even know if it 378 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,440 Speaker 1: was just me. That's why I've been hesitant to say 379 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: that as Eberflus's fault, right, I'm like, these are basic 380 00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: things that these guys are being asked to do with. 381 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 1: Somebody's got in there. 382 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,479 Speaker 6: We're all the thirty second ranked defense. 383 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: There's fault across the shore. 384 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 6: It's not one source. 385 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 1: Absolutely, absolutely everybody has to take responsibility. But like we're 386 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,400 Speaker 1: talking about pro athletes asking being asked to play basic 387 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: coverages and they start seeing ghosts and running around with 388 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: their hair cut off. So like there's certain things that 389 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,479 Speaker 1: are just going that are inexplicable, which is why those 390 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: individuals are no longer playing. 391 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:21,679 Speaker 6: And when you think about it, okay and look at 392 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 6: the issues that you had last season with Mike Zimmers 393 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 6: defense when they're trying to acclim me to that. One 394 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 6: of the things that Jordan Lewis, former Cowboy said going 395 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 6: into the I think it was like week eight or 396 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 6: nine when we're just struggling on defense. The details, it's 397 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 6: all about the details. 398 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: Makes said, they're like five weeks in a row because 399 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: it was an issue and. 400 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 6: The personnel hasn't necessarily changed in the secondary, I mean 401 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 6: aside from a few guys, so you're just having those 402 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 6: issues yet again, it's frustrating. 403 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 3: It is frustrating, and I thought Robert in the comments 404 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 3: said he said, still feeling coy across the board. 405 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: Defense has to change. 406 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 3: Plus players must buckle up and stop being punked four 407 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 3: and during the game, which is absolutely. 408 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: True to do it buckle up, but it's absolutely true. 409 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: I agree with Robert. It has to change. 410 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 3: There has to be a movement in the right direction 411 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 3: because you aren't going any direction except for backwards right now. 412 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 3: And I've got a stat to prove that when we 413 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 3: come back, we're also going to have a little bit 414 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 3: of lab coat. 415 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: What you what you got working?

And now I keep it at my desk, 509 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 3: and I put the hoodie on while I'm at my desk, 510 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 3: and then if I have to go to the bathroom 511 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 3: or go grab food or go. 512 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: Grab whatever, I take it off and keep walking. We 513 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,119 Speaker 1: got an HR reminder because of k one. Yeah, it 514 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: was all because of me. Really was hoodie? 515 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 3: All right, black rifle coffee, appreciate you as always. It's 516 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 3: time for a little bit of lab coat. 517 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: Bring me in Beamer, yes, science all right. So last 518 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: week it might have been earlier. This week, my days 519 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: were starting to run together because we were in the 520 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 1: middle of the season. And that's how it goes. You 521 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: just leave. Just leave them, be man, just leave them. 522 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 6: All right. 523 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 1: There was a great conversation hotly debated between myself, Kyle, 524 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 1: and one Temmy yourrish do NFL teams? 525 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 6: Now? 526 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 1: This was Tommy's point. Tommy's point was that NFL teams 527 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 1: required both an elite offense and elite defense, which is 528 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: a fair point to become a Super Bowl champion. That 529 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: is a fair point. And my counter argument was that 530 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 1: one that is ideal and that is the goal of 531 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: every one of the thirty two NFL teams. History doesn't 532 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 1: bear that out to be true. What Okay? So I 533 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: went back curie, curiously, and this is going to be 534 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: in Science Lab. I break it down fully on I came, 535 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,159 Speaker 1: I like that right here. You can't see me, So 536 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: Josh Rodriguez and all of his greatness to see me. 537 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: That's really good. Exactly. We'll have Science Lab up on 538 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys dot com this morning to make sure you 539 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: check this out. That being said, I went back and 540 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: looked at every single Super Bowl winner since the turn 541 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: of the century. Okay, the last twenty five super Bowl winners, wow. 542 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: And I looked at their offensive rankings and defensive rankings 543 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: based on points per game. Okay. I was curious to 544 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: see how many of those twenty five teams were able 545 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 1: to brag about having an elite defense and an elite offense. Now, 546 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: how do I define elite elite mid on the road? Man? Okay? 547 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: I defineally as top five. That's fair. Okay, if your 548 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: top ten, you're good, You're really good. Yeah. Top five 549 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: is you're in different. 550 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 6: Air, different company. Yeah. 551 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: Of the past twenty five super Bowl champions, only three, well, 552 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: only three super Bowl champions in the past quarter century 553 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: have had an elite defense and an elite offense. One 554 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: comes by way of I got my list in front 555 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 1: of me. We got the Eagles when they won Super 556 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: Bowl fifty two, they had the third best offense and 557 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: the fourth best defense. Okay, back to back here because 558 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,719 Speaker 1: super Bowl fifty one, the one previous ward, the New 559 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: England Patriots, their offense was ranked third, defense was ranked 560 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: first in the league. Okay, and we have only one more, 561 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: which will be come on with it. Don't hide, don't 562 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: hi the Patriots again, super Bowl thirty nine, fourth best offense, 563 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 1: second best defense. Other than that, you're seeing a healthy 564 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: mix if you need it. Oh yeah, because you see 565 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: me scrolling see web master, web master. So you have 566 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: three only three everyone else. You're seeing things like the 567 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: first ranked offense, the sixteenth ranked defense. That was the 568 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifty seven winners, the Kansas City Chiefs. And 569 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: then I know some people are going to say it, well, no, 570 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: see what about the Eagles. They had the seventh best 571 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: first of all, I said, top five is the leade. 572 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: But I'll play this game with your seventh best offense 573 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 1: last year when they run one but they had the 574 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: second best defense. But then when you put it in close, close, 575 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 1: when you put it in the micro cosmo, what happened 576 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 1: in the game though, of the forty points that the 577 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:23,959 Speaker 1: Eagle scored, because you could look at it and say, 578 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: oh yeah, because they dropped forty on the Chiefs, Okay, well, 579 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: a pick six from Cooper Degen. You had twelve of 580 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 1: those forty points put up by Jake Elliott, your kicker. 581 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: And the three touchdowns that Jalen Hurts were responsible for, 582 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: a one yard rushing touchdown, a twelve yard passing touchdown, 583 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 1: and the only chunk play for the offense as far 584 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 1: as touchdowns are concerned, was a forty six yard touchdown 585 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: to Devonte Smith. They were not world beaters in that 586 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: particular game. However, they controlled the clock thirty eight minutes. 587 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 1: Thirty eight minutes that they kept Patrick Mahomes off the field, 588 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 1: and when he was on the field, six sacks and 589 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 1: twenty six pressure, so they were elite when they needed 590 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: to be. That is correct. So my point being, would 591 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: you love to have an elite offense and an elite 592 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 1: defense at the same time. Absolutely, that goes without saying. 593 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 1: Shouldn't have to say it, but sure, I'll say it. Okay, 594 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: But realistically speaking, far more often than not, especially in 595 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: the salary cap era, you need one to be elite 596 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: and the other to be better than average average ish, 597 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: that's what you need if you can do that. There 598 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: are so many teams in this championship list that's on 599 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: Science Lab that drops some Dallas Cowboys dot Com that 600 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 1: you'll be able to say, well, the offense was mid, 601 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 1: the defense was elite. The offense was elite, the defense 602 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,879 Speaker 1: was mid. That's you just need somebody to be one 603 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: of those sides of the ball to be better than worse. Man, 604 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: I wish this defense was mid, Yeah, I would. I 605 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: would love if they were just Science Lab coming this morning. 606 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: That would be great. 607 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 3: The unfortunate part of it is that they are not 608 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 3: mid right now, and that's where this defensive preview comes 609 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 3: into full. 610 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,959 Speaker 1: Ult Ultra Cowboys said. Patrick does his research in Spider Man. 611 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: Spider Man gear can neither confirm nor deny was the 612 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: Rocks on a shift. 613 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 3: He was like, no comment, but yes, Cowboys are the 614 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 3: sixth team in NFL history to give up one hundred 615 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 3: and seventy five points and had two or fewer wins 616 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 3: in their first six games. 617 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 6: M GB, that is not good. 618 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 3: You want to know what happened to the rest of 619 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 3: those teams that happened along the way, the five previous teams. 620 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: That did go to we're going to make us coy again. Yeah, 621 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: it's gonna happen. 622 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 3: It happened twice in nineteen sixty one, the Oilers and 623 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 3: the Patriots. Patriots missed the playoffs. The Oilers actually won 624 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 3: the AFL championship. Yeah, back in nineteen sixty one. Everybody 625 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 3: remembers Houston Oiler teams. 626 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: What about those Jeffersons not so fast? What about the 627 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: Rochester Jefferson No, they did never, They never achieved this. 628 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 3: The twenty sixteen Saints, the twenty twelve Saints, and the 629 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 3: nineteen eighty five Bengals were the three previous teams to 630 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 3: achieve this feat. They all finished with the same record 631 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 3: seven wins, nine losses, and they all. 632 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 1: All miss the playoffs. I'll leave you out adds this, 633 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: and I'll leave you and raise them us. If you 634 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 1: want to know why the Cowboys are below five hundred. 635 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense is scoring an average of twenty nine points 636 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: seven points per game. Their defense is allowing an average 637 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: of thirty points seven points per game. 638 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 6: That doesn't seem good. 639 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: Math is math is the math. Math is not math. 640 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: Math is the math. So yeah, Unfortunately, the offense has 641 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: to play perfect. And is that fair? 642 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 5: Noe? 643 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: It's not fair to them to not be able to 644 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: make a single mistake. But until the defense at least 645 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: ratches it up two or three more notches, then the 646 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense will have to do so. And that's why 647 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: it's that much more meaningful that Ceedee Lamb and Cavante 648 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: Turpin are backing them forward. 649 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 6: What's sad is you can't bank on a stop on defense, 650 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 6: just a single one period. 651 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: You just hope the clock right. You gotta score a 652 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: touchdown almost every time you go down the field, no man. 653 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 3: So let's talk about how they match up against this 654 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 3: Washington offense. Washington gets Jaden Daniels back. Last week, they 655 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 3: fall against the Bay three and three. 656 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: This is a hungry Commander's team. It was a crazy game. 657 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: Do we get an update on their health? Terry McLaurin 658 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: was back in practice. He was limited with a quad. 659 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: They're pretty healthy for the most part. I mean they've 660 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: got let me see Deebo, McLaurin, Noah Brown, all those 661 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: guys have been injured a win while you guys are 662 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 1: looking at a real quick answer for whos. None of 663 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: them are on the injury report. 664 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 6: So unless they're on IR they only have our injury 665 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 6: report on their on their website. 666 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: Oh that their injury report is. I've got it right here, Okay. 667 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 3: Durrance was DMP with a hamstring. Durrance Armstrong, zach Ertz. 668 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 3: There was a lot of rested guys. Drake Jackson was 669 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 3: there with the knee, Chris Rodriguez, the running back, was 670 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 3: out with a calf, Terry McLaurin was limited with a quad, 671 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 3: Sam Cosney was full with a knee, Jaden. 672 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: Daniels full with a knee, and then Jonathan Jones full 673 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: with a hamstring. Deebo didn't practice yesterday, but he's not 674 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 1: on the practice report. Just letting you know that he 675 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: is a heel injury. He's been beat up. Is he 676 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: on the IR list? 677 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 3: No, he's not, then why was he not on the 678 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 3: practice That's a good question there, Kyle, the board on snitch. 679 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, if he's not on a list, why is he 680 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: not on the app? 681 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 3: We had We had a reporter for the Washington Commander's 682 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 3: on He said he did not today. 683 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: See what I don't get before today? Talent talent, talent, 684 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: real guarantee he's on there today though soon had a 685 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 1: science lab lab coat question. They asked, was the last 686 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: team that won or which of those teams in the 687 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,719 Speaker 1: last twenty five years have had a defense ranked thirtieth 688 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: below zero? And then's to my point, you need to 689 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: have a defense that ranks at least averages. But I 690 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: will say more specifically, the Giants who won Super Bowl 691 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: forty six had the ninth ranked offense. They have had 692 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: a twenty fifth ranked defense. 693 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 6: Hold on really quick, I just a side tangent really quickly? 694 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: Yes or no? 695 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 6: Do the Cowboys have the personnel to be a mid 696 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 6: ranked defense when healthy? 697 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: When healthy? Yes, they can. They as is, I think 698 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: they can be made when healthy. I could be I 699 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 1: could see them like load twenties, but that not that 700 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: might not any load twenties. Load twenties with some takeaways, 701 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: I'd be fine, might get you, but you haven't been 702 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 1: able to get taken I am going to say, you 703 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: got one player. 704 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 3: With an interception and his name is Donovan Wilson, and 705 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 3: he's the first safety since twenty sixteen to have mo 706 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 3: you're making my point interceptions in the first six games. 707 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: The last guy to do that was Barry Church and 708 00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: he's on our freaking podcast. You're making a point. You 709 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: need more interceptions, can get more takeaway be bad at everything, 710 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 1: you gotta be good at something. Yes, I say this 711 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: is a man defense and they're playing I'm gonna run 712 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: it back. I'm just gonna say, please, please, really majorty 713 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: of the contributors on defense. Where dan Quinn guys, as 714 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: we now know and we're about to find out for 715 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: those who do not know, dan Quinn plays man primarily. 716 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: These guys want to play man. They want to get 717 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: in your face, they want to jam you up, they 718 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: want to put hands on you. They want to stay 719 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: in your hip pocket and be lin in your pocket. 720 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 1: Doron Bland, Trayvon Diggs. When these guys were doing the 721 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 1: things that got them the contracts that they now have, 722 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 1: what coverage? Were they playing man man? They were taking 723 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: the ball away a lunch, That's what I mean. Did 724 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 1: you have quarterback pressure. Absolutely, you had quarterback pressure. But 725 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:25,879 Speaker 1: this is a and that's what I'm hoping to see 726 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: Coach Eberflu's change because right now he's saying, Okay, this 727 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: is my system. Fit in my system. Yeah, through the 728 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:40,240 Speaker 1: first six weeks, you're realizing that's not working so great, Alu. 729 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: Regardless of the fact that it is a good scheme 730 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: schematically it should work, it's not working for these guys. Yes, 731 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 1: So are you malleable in the sense that you can 732 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,439 Speaker 1: now change and say, Okay, this is what I want 733 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 1: to do, but it's not working. Okay, how else can 734 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 1: we get to this? Occasionally while doing the things that 735 00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: they exceed at I just. 736 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 3: Had a flashback to twenty twenty. I just had a 737 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 3: flashback to Isaiah having the same conversation about a guy 738 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 3: named Mike Nolwan in twenty twenty on this very show. 739 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,800 Speaker 1: And then you got dan Quinn pepper form. Remember, but seriously, 740 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: that is what guys who are no longer here. I 741 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:23,359 Speaker 1: like the Isaiah that takes breaths between. Seriously, guys who 742 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: are no longer here are exceeding elsewhere. Why they're being 743 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: asked to do to things that they were doing well here? Correct? 744 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 1: Jay Lou Correct is playing man down in Jacksonville, Na. 745 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:41,800 Speaker 1: Sean Wright Correct is playing man in Chicago, and he 746 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:47,839 Speaker 1: has multiple interceptions and recoveries. This is a man got 747 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: the personnel. Their skill set is man. That's not to 748 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 1: say that they can't play zone. That's be dumb for 749 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:54,399 Speaker 1: me to sit up here say they can't play zone. 750 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: You can't. There's many ways that you can get to 751 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: zones while selling man. And you can get pressures and 752 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: get more turnovers when you allow your dogs to go eat. 753 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: And these receivers can't just run for the first eight 754 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: yards without being touched because after five yards, I don't 755 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: know if you guys know this. After five yard yards 756 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,839 Speaker 1: is illegal. You can't touch. It's illegal to bump these 757 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: guys off their marts. So if I'm giving you five 758 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: yards to run your route, I can't touch you. 759 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 6: For the fan, for the fans at home, Isaiah is 760 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 6: what Isaiah is saying is he desperately wants man. 761 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: Yes, keep the man buns coming. He's very true, listen, 762 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 1: very true. I would much rather see us an instance 763 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 1: camp like that serious. I would much rather us if 764 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 1: we're going to lose on defense doing what you're doing 765 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 1: and be able to look at this guy and be like, 766 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: you got beat. I agree with that one hundred. That 767 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 1: guy across from you beat you. What are you going 768 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 1: to do about it? You can't leave it up to 769 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: the ski not sitting back seven yards off? And then 770 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,879 Speaker 1: oh no, I had two guys that ran into my zone. 771 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,239 Speaker 1: I chose the wrong one. No, take that element out. 772 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 1: I'm with you, I'm seriously, I'm I'm with you. Really, 773 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: I'm hopeful that Matt Eberfuls is like, you know what, 774 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: they're tired of what I'm doing. Bet here we go, 775 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: Let's try it your way. Yeah, it's slowly if only. 776 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 6: The players are vocal about their desire to play man. 777 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:20,800 Speaker 5: Like a? 778 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: Are they like a Trevon Diggs for example? I will 779 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,760 Speaker 1: say since Trevon made that statement about, you know, bringing 780 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 1: that up to Matt Eberflu's, they've increased the amount of 781 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,879 Speaker 1: man that they played, have they they did? It's going 782 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,320 Speaker 1: up over the past couple of weeks. Now is it 783 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 1: WHEREA wants it to be? Which is where I would 784 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: also like to see it be. 785 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 6: No, I have a stat for you. The Cowys do 786 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,799 Speaker 6: you has deployed zone coverage on one hundred and fifty 787 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 6: eight of one hundred and sixty four dropbacks faced on 788 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 6: early downs this season, resulting in the highest rate in 789 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 6: the NFL ninety six point three percent. 790 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 1: Just basically daring them to they're another teams to create 791 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: third and short. 792 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 6: They have been more just daring you two. They've been 793 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 6: more willing to use man coverage third down, though their 794 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 6: rate at twenty seven point four percent still ranks the 795 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:05,920 Speaker 6: fourth lowest in the NFL. 796 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: And how good have they been on third down throughout 797 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: the year? 798 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:10,720 Speaker 6: Not good, Bob? 799 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 1: Great?

We need to get your crystal ball. 863 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:23,800 Speaker 1: Those are expensive. 864 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:25,399 Speaker 6: I didn't have a good pick. 865 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: Either, bro, I had. I think I lost almost everyone. 866 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 3: All right, Cowboys Seahawks defense versus the Washington offense. 867 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: What does Washington do best on the offensive side of 868 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:37,720 Speaker 1: the football? 869 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 6: What does Washington do best? 870 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 1: Keep you guessing? What's that? They are varied in their 871 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: looks in terms of motions, pre snaps, shifts. You can't 872 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,399 Speaker 1: even just track a lot of times linebackers. As we're 873 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 1: talking about these linebackers. You you identify what the offensive 874 00:41:57,600 --> 00:41:59,839 Speaker 1: linemen are doing, right, So you track linemen even if 875 00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 1: you can't see the ball a lot of times as linebackers, 876 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,759 Speaker 1: which Kenneth Murray ran into this last week, you track 877 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 1: linemen right. So if I'm looking at the running back 878 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 1: and I see the left guard pulling, well, naturally, I'm 879 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:11,759 Speaker 1: going to go to the right in the direction of 880 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: the left guard. That doesn't work necessarily against the Commanders 881 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 1: because they will literally send the play of the opposite direction. 882 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 1: They do a lot of misdirection with their personnel in 883 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,879 Speaker 1: terms of receivers, in terms of running backs, quarterback runs, 884 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 1: a lot of zone read in terms of that is 885 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,399 Speaker 1: a running game. Is the zone read And if those 886 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 1: that don't know what the zone read is, it's an 887 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 1: option where I can hand the ball off to the 888 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:34,840 Speaker 1: running back and he can go to his zone or 889 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 1: I can keep it. Then I can now go outside 890 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 1: of the defensive end if the DN pinches, and I 891 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 1: can now run the ball aie with Jayden Daniels. They 892 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:44,799 Speaker 1: are running screens off of that as well, so they 893 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 1: have a lot of different options on every play they 894 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: have an option, they have a screen option, and then 895 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,879 Speaker 1: an option for Jade and Daniels to run. In their 896 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 1: passing game, they do a lot of things where he's 897 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 1: holding the ball this year. That's why I don't think 898 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 1: he's been as effective. He's holding the ball a lot 899 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 1: more than he was last year. 900 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 3: See yeah, when it is going into break, I said 901 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 3: he's played well since coming back from injury, and you went, yeah, 902 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 3: give me the koy Isaiah. Yeah, I do have some 903 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 3: stats to back up what I'm saying. Daniels one to 904 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 3: ten passer rating since returning from injury. He missed weeks 905 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 3: three and four, He's been back for five and six. 906 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 3: Prior to the injury, it was only ninety one. And 907 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 3: you're going up against the Cowboys defense that has allowed 908 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 3: a one to seventeen passer rating to every quarterback they've 909 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,400 Speaker 3: faced so far, which is the worst stat since they 910 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 3: started keeping passer rating as an official stat. 911 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: In the NFL. And the Dallas defense has been the 912 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 1: worst at at all of them. 913 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,399 Speaker 6: And if we're still on top of what Washington does best, 914 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 6: I think it's like the exotic route trees that they're running. 915 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 6: They went running a lot of crossers. They're getting guys 916 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 6: out in space. They they're very killing Moore esque with 917 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 6: the way that they tried to spread the ball around 918 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 6: and spread their receivers around the field. If and if 919 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 6: you're the Dallas Cowboys, the one thing that you want 920 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:55,840 Speaker 6: to be able to do is rush the passer. 921 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. Another thing you want to run into another issue 922 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:03,399 Speaker 1: you're going to run into. Sure, Yeah that's the thing. Yeah, 923 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:03,920 Speaker 1: that's the thing. 924 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:05,239 Speaker 6: Do you want to be able to do that? 925 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, laughing face emoji. So so there. I mean, there 926 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 1: are things, many things that any of the commanders do 927 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: well but can be neutralized if you have a sufficient defense. 928 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 1: But as we have this conversation, this defense has only 929 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: proven to be sufficient once, No, twice, I'll give him 930 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 1: that against the equals as well, Sure twice two times 931 00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:28,399 Speaker 1: through the first six games. And the math is math. 932 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 1: That means more often than not, you're not playing good football. 933 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 1: So what you need to keep in mind is not 934 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 1: only Terry McLaurin, not only crosskey merit because they're still 935 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 1: running the ball effectively without Austin Eckler. Okay, you know 936 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 1: Jaydon Daniels can extend plays. You know he would love 937 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 1: to break contain. You know, he would love to rack 938 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,719 Speaker 1: up some rushing yards. And you know, just keep you 939 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 1: guessing is he going to cross the line of scrimmage 940 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 1: or is he going to keep his eyes downfield and 941 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 1: find a guy like McLaurin. I say all that to say, 942 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 1: keep an eye on Zach Ertz in this game. Your 943 00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:00,040 Speaker 1: linebackers are struggling in coverage, and this could very It 944 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 1: will be a game where everybody's eyeing, you know, Crosskey 945 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 1: Marrit and everybody's eyeing Jaydon Daniels, and everybody's eyeing Terry McLaurin, 946 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 1: and Zach Ertz sneaks behind you and gets two three 947 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,839 Speaker 1: touchdowns on you. No, So keep an eye on Zach 948 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 1: Hurtz because when you're talking about wiley veterans who are 949 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: still capable of playing at a high level, he is, 950 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,399 Speaker 1: he is what And then of course you know he's 951 00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 1: kind of made a career of making things difficult for 952 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. Yep, So he has that added motivation 953 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 1: whenever he sees the star lining up against him. So 954 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: keep an eye on that, Zach guy. And I don't 955 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:32,840 Speaker 1: mean uh, I don't mean Lisa Turtle's best friend. 956 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 3: So you're telling me that their tight end has had 957 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 3: success against the Cowboys, no matter who is the defensive coordinator, 958 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 3: no matter. 959 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 1: What age, no matter what whatever. 960 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 3: They have wide receivers that are running crisp and clean 961 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 3: and elaborate routes. 962 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:50,239 Speaker 6: And exotic if you will. 963 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 3: Prior to the snap, there are a lot of misdirection 964 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 3: and a lot of motions that are going to really 965 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,919 Speaker 3: challenge your team to be gap disciplined and be able 966 00:45:58,000 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 3: to know identify where they're going. 967 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:01,919 Speaker 6: You just have to have a good communication, buddy. 968 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:07,359 Speaker 1: So ultimately it's all playing back to communication that's gonna 969 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:10,800 Speaker 1: do it for us. You're on can you hear me now? No? No, 970 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: That's the thing is this team can't communicate on the 971 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 1: defensive cyder of the football, all of those things. It's 972 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:18,919 Speaker 1: not that sea word. 973 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 3: If all of those things can't happen, then boom, You're 974 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 3: you've got a bad matchup. 975 00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:28,879 Speaker 1: It's ultimately what you guys are to use that sea work, hut. 976 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 6: And what we've talked about yesterday in our offensive preview 977 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 6: is the one thing that you can't do is give 978 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 6: the ball back to the commanders. You have to be 979 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 6: able to control the ball all game long. I'm thirty 980 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 6: eight minutes take up time is humanly possible. Eight minutes 981 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:47,840 Speaker 6: delay of game every. 982 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 1: Play, control time of position, second on the takeaway margin 983 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:57,560 Speaker 1: by at least plus one, at least plus two would 984 00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 1: be ideal. 985 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,320 Speaker 3: Even even Shotty said he was like and I was 986 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 3: disappointed that we won the turnover battle on Sunday, but we. 987 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 1: Lost the game. It's like, yeah, that's kind of how 988 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: bad the team play. Can't because because of what Kingsbury 989 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: does offensively, we're about to get out of here. I 990 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 1: think this is probably the most challenging communication wise matchup 991 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 1: that Dallas has standpoint from a scheme standpoint, because they 992 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:27,799 Speaker 1: don't have to push the ball down the field. They 993 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 1: don't have to just turn around the hand the ball off. 994 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,840 Speaker 1: They have a quarterback who can run and who is 995 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:35,960 Speaker 1: they literally scheme him to run. They have a running 996 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 1: back who is explosive and and and Jacobe with the 997 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 1: Crosby Merrit He's explosive. I like him a lot. The 998 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 1: ball can get out to dee Bo. Samuel's at the 999 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, scary Terry. I don't think he's gonna 1000 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 1: be fully healthy. I truly don't. Still still a threat, Yeah, 1001 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: but they can they This is a team that is 1002 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 1: perfectly you can go back to last year. This is 1003 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:05,960 Speaker 1: a team who was perfectly okay taking these high precision passes, 1004 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 1: these little closer line of scrimmage plays and working their 1005 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,759 Speaker 1: way down the field. Yep, like they are. They're good 1006 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 1: with that, They're patient with that. And they have a 1007 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: quarterback who doesn't make a lot of mistakes. This is 1008 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:18,440 Speaker 1: it's gonna be challenging.
