9
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 1: We have all confirmed that we are not morning people,

10
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,279
Speaker 1: so please bear with us as we wake up. I'm

11
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: coming in off of DNP all week. I've had the

12
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: flu all week, so my first day back in the building,

13
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: but no better place I would like to spend, thank you, Jazzy,

14
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 1: No better players. I'd rather spend my first day back

15
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 1: and work then with my girlies talking some Cowboys football ladies.

16
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: It's been a minute since we've really had a chance

17
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 1: to chat about this team. They obviously got a big

18
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 1: win over the Eagles on Saturday, a huge win for

19
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: both the record for the division race, for the morale boost.

20
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: So a lot of positive things that we're going to

21
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: dive into from that game, but obviously the team is

22
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: on their way to take on the Tennessee Titans in

23
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 1: what kind of feels like a pointless game, kind of

24
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: feels it's giving preseason vibes, is what I wrote in

25
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: my gut chat, my gut feeling for our website. Not

26
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: a ton at stake in this game. I'm going to

27
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 1: read this from our website just to kind of set

28
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: the tone for how the Titans are kind of preparing

29
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: for this one. So, both the Titans and the Jaguars

30
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: have a seven and eight record, So if the Titans

31
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: fall to seven and nine and the Jaguars defeat the

32
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: Texans this week to move an eight and eight, the

33
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: AFC South will still be determined the regular season finale,

34
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: when the Titans and the Jaguars square off at TIAA

35
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 1: Bank Field. If the Titans defeat the Jaguars, they'll then

36
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: win the AFC South crown and head to the playoffs

37
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: if they lose their out, So essentially, this game has

38
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: no bearing on what they do in the playoffs. That's

39
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: going to be determined in the following week. That being said,

40
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: there's been my chairs sinking. I don't know if you guys,

41
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: I know where you going looking at You like that

42
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: not being said, You know, I still think this is

43
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: an important game for the Cowboys to really figure some

44
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: things out. There's obviously some things to address going into

45
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: the final stretch of this regular season, but I want

46
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: to talk about the good before we talk about where

47
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: we need to improve. So for starters, Dak Prescott has

48
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: been quietly taking punches to the chin for no reason.

49
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: I mean, the interceptions are getting out of hand, and

50
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 1: he was the first to address that on Saturday, right,

51
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: But he has been very good this year. I wrote

52
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: down a couple of things and then I'll open it

53
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: up for you guys, just to kind of give Dak

54
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: his flowers. He's the eighth best quarterback in the NFL currently.

55
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: He finished Saturday twenty seven of thirty five, his first

56
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 1: three hundred yard game this season, with three hundred and

57
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: forty seven yards three touchdowns. Now, he did have that

58
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: pick six to set the tone at the beginning of

59
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 1: the game that everybody was like, what is going on here? Yeah,

60
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: So that was that. But here is where I think

61
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: Dak was the most impressive. Next, Jen Stats gave him

62
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: a ninety one passing score. This week, he completed all

63
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: twenty four of his passes against zone coverage for three

64
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 1: hundred yards and three touchdowns. He's the only player to

65
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: earn a perfect ninety nine versus the zone in a

66
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: single game since twenty eighteen. And I just think at

67
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: some point the Dak slander has got a stop. I

68
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: think you're allowed to criticize because he's not been perfect,

69
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: but at some point you have to stop saying that

70
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: he's not a good quarterback. I'm talking to you, Leshaun McCoy,

71
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: and I just want to chat out how impressive he's

72
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: been in these ten games. I mean, how beneficial has

73
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: he been to this Cowboy's offense. I mean we talked

74
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: about it the other day. Just how big third down

75
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: has been. I mean in this past game he had

76
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: three drives of over seventy yards. You gotta get third

77
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: downs for that, right, And so despite being behind the

78
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: chains in a lot of situations like your quarterback is

79
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:23,919
Speaker 1: able to evade pressure and make big plays and timely plays. Also,

80
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: one big part of it is that he's added his

81
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: legs back into the mix. I mean last game, I

82
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: would think it was like five carries for forty one

83
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: yards and it's more than enough to get defenses to

84
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: respect what he can do. And personally, it just looks

85
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: like he's putting it all together. We talked about it.

86
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: I think he's in mid season form now it's been

87
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: eight weeks that he's got to be be with this

88
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: offense and you start to see that everything is firing

89
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: for him offensively. I think for me, what defines Dak

90
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: Prescott as a player within this game specifically was right

91
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 1: after that pick six. He didn't have another incomplete pass

92
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: until sun Gate, when the sun was in Michael Gallup eyes,

93
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: and that was less than two minutes left in the

94
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 1: second quarter. And so to me, the resilience and the

95
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: fight that he had after that point to say all right,

96
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: all right, that was on me. I'm gonna get it together.

97
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 1: You're not going to see another one. Absolutely incredible. And

98
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: I think something that we've been talking about is the

99
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: communication factor of things and getting him back in the

100
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: swing and how that might have been disrupted a little bit.

101
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: But I think now what you're seeing is the polished communication.

102
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: The cadence is back within that offensive line. You're seeing

103
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: a lot of pieces come together and you're seeing a

104
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 1: midseason form Dak Prescott, which is the perfect timing considering

105
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: here in the next couple of weeks, you're going to

106
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: be seeing December football Dak come playoff time, which is

107
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: when it's at its best. So yeah, Dak slander needs

108
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: to stop it. I'm sick of it. I'm so sick

109
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,239
Speaker 1: of it. And I want to be clear too, because

110
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: I don't want us to come off as we're just

111
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: being homers, you know what I mean. Like obviously, like

112
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 1: I'm employed by the Cowboys, so that is one thing

113
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 1: or another. You guys come in and we do this

114
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: podcast for the Doubt Cowboys, So I want to be clear.

115
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: He's not free from criticism. There are several things in

116
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: his game that need to be addressed, specifically those interceptions,

117
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: because there's going to come a point where you're going

118
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: to throw that pick six and you're not going to

119
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: be able to bounce back. You may see a forty

120
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: nine Ers team that has a Nick Bosa that's going

121
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: to get in your face and cause you some pressure

122
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 1: and disrupt what you've been doing, and so that is

123
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 1: something that you can't afford. To hand the team six

124
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: points in back to back games. You can't do that.

125
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: He's talked several times about you know, he's trying to

126
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,919
Speaker 1: take accountability, but he doesn't want to give up that

127
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 1: aggressive nature and I like that, right. I want my

128
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: quarterback to be aggressive. I think that's why for me,

129
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,679
Speaker 1: the Cooper rest versus Dak Prescott conversation was so silly

130
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: because it's like, you know exactly what you're going to

131
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: get out of Cooper every week, and it's you've seen

132
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: the numbers and the offensive efficiency that this team has had.

133
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: I guess where I struggle with those interceptions is at

134
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 1: what point do we make the adjustment necessary? I mean,

135
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: what are you guys seeing that are making those interceptions

136
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: happen so very often that you know it's becoming costs

137
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: for concern or is it a cost for concern? Well,

138
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: what's frustrating is that, you know, like we've talked about

139
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: like he doesn't want Mike McCarthy's talked about like you

140
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: don't want him to use his aggressive like you wanted

141
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: to keep firing, We'll lose his aggressiveness. You want him

142
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: to keep firing. The frustrating to think about a lot

143
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: of his interceptions as of late is that there's no

144
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: aggressiveness involved. It's just a play call and the play

145
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 1: call is there. So with him, it's just staying out

146
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: of his head and continuing to play well. I personally

147
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: think that hopefully, once he gets a game where there's

148
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: no picks, that that will become habitual, because you know

149
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,239
Speaker 1: how you can get into the habit of doing something

150
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: a accident, Like it's mentally like, dang, Like, I don't

151
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: want nobody on this team preparing for the fact that

152
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: he might throw a pick, because that's not healthy in

153
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: any way, shape or form. So I'm hoping that he

154
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: just suggested that that play by Sweat was just he

155
00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: a big human, like he put his arms up and

156
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,239
Speaker 1: he was already there. But like I was saying before,

157
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: is that with interceptions? For me? Is like sometimes it

158
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: is like earlier in the year, I felt like there

159
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: were times where there was aggressiveness involved in communication, but

160
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: lately it's just been like what is going on here?

161
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: So finding the happy medium, I guess is important moving forward. Yeah,

162
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: and I think it goes back to that communication factor,

163
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: and I think early on that's exactly what it was.

164
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 1: We broke it down. We said, hey, you know, so

165
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: and so didn't run the right route. Somebody was in

166
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: the wrong spot. But I mean, it's obviously concerning the interceptions.

167
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: But what I think you're seeing now is the pieces

168
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: falling together where they need to. And I'll give a

169
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: lot of that credit back to the oh line as

170
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: well for giving Dak that protection, that time, that space

171
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: to make those plays without feeling like he has to

172
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: rush them and be aggressive at the wrong times. But

173
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 1: to your point two, going back to the play calling,

174
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: I think it just it's going back to kind of

175
00:08:53,440 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: being more situational. And when Dak really struggling with her, Charry,

176
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,719
Speaker 1: you're still you're still shrinking down. I'm like, oh, where

177
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 1: are you going? I think it's a situational play calling thing,

178
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: and it's just it's so trying to be subtle. But

179
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: I'm glad y'all can't see that. You're you're looking at

180
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: me right now, because it is. It is just a

181
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: it's interesting. What's going on? Right? Healthy chairs? Asha? Just

182
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: moving chairs? Like what is going on here? Here we go?

183
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: All right, I'm back to adult size now. I feel

184
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: like you're taller than me and I don't like that.

185
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: Are you shrinking again? Man? All right? Well, back to

186
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 1: a situational play calling. I think it just goes back

187
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: to that, and I think it's just I don't want

188
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: to call it Dak being too aggressive because I think

189
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: when he's aggressive it's when he's using his legs. It's

190
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: when he is making that fifty three yard bomb to

191
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,439
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton. I mean, I want to see those things.

192
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: It's just really it goes back to fixing that communication,

193
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,199
Speaker 1: which to me this week didn't look like it was

194
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,199
Speaker 1: an issue at all. So as long as you keep

195
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: seeing improvement in that, I think I'll be happy with that.

196
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, I want to see one game no interceptions

197
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: from DEC that would be that would be nice. Shut

198
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: toxic Twitter, just down. I do want to talk about

199
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton. I do want to talk about this

200
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: receiving Core as a whole and how they have improved.

201
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: But I want to do that after the break because

202
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 1: our first last time I did this, Jazzy yelled at

203
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 1: me because our first block went too long. So when

204
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 1: the current I'm gonna pivot a little bit here. Something

205
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: we really haven't talked about a lot is the tight

206
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: end production and the run games. I think the run games,

207
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: the run game. We'll start with the tight ends. Obviously,

208
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: with Jake Ferguson getting banged up, I don't think you

209
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: realized how important of a piece he was to the

210
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: offense until you didn't have him. Patrick Walker and I

211
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: were talking in the press box about Dalton Schultz being

212
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: kind of the last of his type of tight end,

213
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 1: you know, the guy who catches the ball and then

214
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 1: immediately falls right. There's no yak when it comes to

215
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz, which can sometimes be okay because sometimes you

216
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: just need the catch and you need to go down

217
00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: because you don't want to risk fumbling it, dropping it,

218
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: whatever it is. But I think what you get out

219
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: of a Jake Ferguson and what you get out of

220
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: a Peyton Hindershot is that yackability. I mean, Peyton hinder

221
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: Shot to me, acts like a wide receiver. He's out

222
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: there running routes, he's fast, he's physical, and then you

223
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: have Jake who's very strong, he's very big. Apparently he's

224
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: got the sauce. You know, he's taking people left and right.

225
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: So I'd like to see this week and going into

226
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: that final week, just a little bit more from the

227
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: tight end perspective, how Kellen can re get them back involved,

228
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 1: because we spoke a couple of weeks ago just how

229
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: important that the tight ends had become to this offense.

230
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: So I shall start with you, how do you get

231
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: these guys more involved to help the offense kind of

232
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: pick up the slack the way the defense did at

233
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: the beginning of the season. I think you missed them

234
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: in the run game scheme, like we were just talking about,

235
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: you missed them. And though some of those twelve thirteen fourteen,

236
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: you know, personnel packages where you can go bodies on

237
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: bodies and really get up on people, there were some

238
00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 1: great blocks by the tight ends in this game. Moving forward,

239
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: I think that it's important that they get back reintegrated

240
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: into this offense. And like you said, like there were

241
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: a couple opportunities in this game where they had opportunities

242
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: over the middle and things like that, but moving forward,

243
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: that is key. It's key, and it has been key

244
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 1: to what the Cowboys have done offensively with the lack

245
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 1: of the receiver production. You don't want that to completely

246
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: change just because CD can just kill people on the

247
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: outside or Ty has the ability to go over the top.

248
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: You want to still be working that intermediate middle of

249
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 1: the field stuff because that's going to continue to open

250
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: up the rest of your offense. Yeah, I think just

251
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 1: establishing again what the identity is of this offense and

252
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: what it should continue to be, right. I mean, we

253
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: were seeing so much productivity from Zeke and Tony that

254
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: one two punch, both averaging at one point almost eight

255
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: yards per carry, and now the last couple of weeks,

256
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 1: I mean during the Eagles game, Zeke was averaging three

257
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: point four yards per carry DAK, averaging more than Tony

258
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: Pollard's six point eight yards are and then Tony Pollard

259
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: two point one yards per carry. Even going back to

260
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: the Jags game, very similar situations, them not even averaging

261
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: four yards per carry there. And I think that's where

262
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: your tight ends were missed, is with the pass pro,

263
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: with the blocking, with all of those things that just

264
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: help everybody just be more aligned. So I think going

265
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 1: back to the run, establishing that early, really utilizing those two.

266
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,719
Speaker 1: I know Tony Pollard dealing with that thigh injury this week,

267
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: so we probably most likely won't see him at his

268
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: highest production if we do at all. But I just

269
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: think it's going back to what works and not getting

270
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: too cute. And I hate saying that phrase. I wish

271
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: there's another phrase to explain that, but you don't have

272
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: to get too cute. And you know, I'm glad Dak's

273
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: being more mobile. I'm glad Dak feels more comfortable and

274
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: the communication is established now that he can make those

275
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: long passes and he has the t Y Hilton to

276
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: be able to do those things now. But I also

277
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: don't want to shy away from what works for this team,

278
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: and that's when you have Zeke Tony just hot, wearing

279
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: down those defenses, taking over the time of possession and

280
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,439
Speaker 1: really just solidifying that that game is yours to take

281
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: control of. I like that. I agree. I think that

282
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: the tight ends we took him for granted, yeah, but

283
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 1: when we had them, especially when we had all four

284
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: of them, I mean, even with Sean mcwen coming in

285
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: and making an impact from a blocking standpoint, I think

286
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: that they What is that he's so chippy? Oh yeah,

287
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: I'd like it. You see him on film. I don't

288
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: know what I thought. My bad, it wasn't supposed to

289
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: come out. But he's so chippy, man like, he's finished

290
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: and plays. He wants to put his hands all people

291
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: in the run game is one of the best things. Yeah,

292
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: I think hopefully we get that back, especially with Jake

293
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: having a little bit more time to you know, work

294
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: back from that concussion. So hopefully we see the tight

295
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: ends a little bit more involved. But someone we have

296
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: seen more involved in this team as of late, guys,

297
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb has really woken up in the last couple

298
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: of weeks. We're going to talk about just how good

299
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: he has been for this Dallas Cowboys offense, as well

300
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: as one of the new faces making an early impact,

301
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: to say the least. That is on the other side

302
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: of this break on Girls Talk, Boys Talk, presented by Jigsaw,

303
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: the preferred dating partner of the Dallas Cowboys. At Jigsaw Dating,

304
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: we obviously want the Cowboys to bring that sixth ring home,

305
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: but to be honest, we're more focused on finding the

306
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: person whole put a ring on your finger. That's why

307
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: we created a dating app that reveals your face through

308
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:27,120

345
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 1: don't care. Sorry, Jazz was talking to my talking in

346
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 1: my ear, and it disoriented me. But I don't think

347
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,879
Speaker 1: i've ever said y'all, yeah, I see it too, and

348
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: I just it didn't feel good. I'm sorry. I didn't

349
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 1: think it didn't feel genuine. It just fella. I think

350
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: once I moved here, I started to say more it

351
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: stuck and I don't want it to. But that's where

352
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm at. Jazzy, don't don't start. I know, please, Jesse,

353
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 1: here are our little sounds in the back. I do.

354
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 1: I hear her, Jesse. They play us days. Throw in shade, ma'am, ladies.

355
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 1: I know. It's so interesting how at the beginning of

356
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 1: the year we were talking about the defense and how

357
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 1: important the defense was to this team, and how they

358
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: were basically putting the team on their back for a

359
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 1: couple of weeks while we wait for Dak Prescott to

360
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: come back. And I don't know that I've ever really

361
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 1: seen a three sixty the way the last couple of

362
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: weeks have been between the offense and the defense on

363
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: a team. I mean, you went from the defense literally

364
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 1: being the top in the NFL, which they're still good.

365
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: I don't want to take that away from them, but

366
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 1: the way that this offense has really stepped up the

367
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks in production, in scoring, all the

368
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 1: above have been phenomenal, and I think a big reason

369
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: for that has been Cede Lamb. He recorded his fourth

370
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,679
Speaker 1: one hundred yard game of the season. Is one of

371
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,560
Speaker 1: the top receivers in the NFC number three with twelve

372
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: hundred and seven total yards. He's getting thirteen point three

373
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 1: per catch. He's got eight touchdowns, so a career year

374
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: so far from him. He's eight overall in the excuse me,

375
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 1: seventh overall in the NFL as far as wide receiver

376
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 1: rankings go, and he's in a you know, a great

377
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: group of guys in front of him. So obviously the

378
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: connection with Dak Prescott has been short up. We haven't

379
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: really seen that same pick that happened three times in

380
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: a row over the middle, but he has just grown

381
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: into that role. He spoke a lot this week, and

382
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: I spoke about it a lot this week, and the

383
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: vibe that I kind of got from it is like, like,

384
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 1: you guys, better ask somebody because I've been here, I've

385
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: been doing it, and so I love that quiet confidence.

386
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 1: I said the same thing about t Y Hilton last week,

387
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 1: but I just I love that sort of like quiet confidence.

388
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,360
Speaker 1: I think for a lot of people, CD comes off

389
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: as arrogant. He comes off a little diva ish, and

390
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 1: from the outside looking in, you could probably say that,

391
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 1: but when you get to know him, you recognize, you know,

392
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 1: just what he's had to go through. The growth that

393
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: he's had to go. I mean, he was really thrust

394
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: into a position where he didn't really have the opportunity,

395
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,479
Speaker 1: I don't think to grow into that wide receiver one

396
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 1: position the way a lot of these other players get it.

397
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: Was literally like, all right, we're stipping a mari off

398
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:22,239
Speaker 1: to Cleveland europe kid. And he didn't really get that,

399
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,399
Speaker 1: you know, that development. He didn't get it in the

400
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: preseason with Dak, and then he missed Dak for five weeks,

401
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: and so I think to see his growth in the

402
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks has been really inspiring for the

403
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: rest of the guys in that room. But it's also

404
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,919
Speaker 1: just really cool to see, you know, him finally getting

405
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 1: the recognition, not that he needs the recognition, but getting

406
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: that recognition from national outlets, from Cowboys Nation, from his teammates,

407
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: whoever it is, as he's really started to step up

408
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,679
Speaker 1: into being that wide receiver one. Yeah. And I mean

409
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: I'm allow of fuss like a fuss about Kellen sometimes

410
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: in the play calling, but this also goes back to

411
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: him and how he's getting seeding lamb and bold, how

412
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,239
Speaker 1: he's using him in motion situations and also putting him

413
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: in opportunities now in space to use his yak ability,

414
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: like we were talking about even with the tight ends.

415
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 1: Is the yards after catch with CD is something that

416
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,479
Speaker 1: has been great for him. That's something that made him

417
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 1: to me what he the receiver that he is and

418
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 1: finally get finally getting to see that implemented until this

419
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,439
Speaker 1: offense consistently for him. Also there's drives where he can

420
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 1: just take over where it's just continuously like he's the guy,

421
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: and it's a good It's a big step for this

422
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,360
Speaker 1: team moving forward, especially with T while on the other side,

423
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: I know, I know we're going to get to that,

424
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: but for CD lamb good for him to come into

425
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: his own and this team needs him right now. So yeah,

426
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 1: and I think a lot of it too goes back

427
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: to the Cowboys really fixating on correcting the third down

428
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: conversion rate and giving guys like CD another chance to

429
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 1: be on the field, because that's what you were lacking

430
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the season. Given we know the

431
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: difference with Cooper Russian Dak Prescott, but they weren't even

432
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 1: allowing the chance for CD to prove himself on third

433
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: because they weren't getting that chance. They were second in

434
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 1: twenty second in fifteen and they weren't even converting that.

435
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 1: So to go from that to being fifth in the

436
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 1: league right now with third down conversion percentage is key

437
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: to that and key to getting almost said, Kellen more involved, Nope,

438
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: key to getting CD more involved overall in this offense.

439
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: And I think what you're seeing is the confidence that

440
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 1: he's been playing with Dak for the last eight weeks now,

441
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: a full force Dak Prescott who is finding that aggressive

442
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: nature and I think they're finding it together. And you

443
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,399
Speaker 1: only add, you know, even more to that when you

444
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: have Michael Gallup who's coming into his own stride. You

445
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: have you know, t Y who's been in the building

446
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: for less than two weeks and already making an impact

447
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: for these younger players. So there's a lot that goes

448
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: into it, but I think overall, just giving them the

449
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: chance to have the ball goes a long way for

450
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 1: somebody like CD to prove exactly who he was not

451
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: that he needed to. And to begin with, Yeah, I'm

452
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 1: really sad that I miss locker room this week because

453
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask him about his little dance he

454
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,719
Speaker 1: did on that first testdown that he didn't do. He uh,

455
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 1: he's not doing the gritty like everybody else he always can.

456
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 1: I just say this really fast, Lord, I am so

457
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 1: done with the gritty, Like I think, like I feel

458
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: so bad for Justin Jefferson because he put that on

459
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: the map and it was cool right Like it was like,

460
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 1: oh dang, like this is cool when you have Mike

461
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 1: GISICKI doing the gritty not once, but twice, I think,

462
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 1: doing it. And they told you, they told Mike to

463
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,919
Speaker 1: stop doing the gritty and he still did it. That

464
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:35,959
Speaker 1: man literally came out on social media and said, my

465
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 1: wife was embarrassed, Like when you Jay Jazzy's doing it

466
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: right in the hallway right here. I think twenty twenty

467
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 1: two is a perfect time to retire the gritty. Please

468
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 1: please everybody, like we're done with it. It was it

469
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 1: was cool until it wasn't and now it's extremely not.

470
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: So this is this is my bag to the NFL

471
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 1: players celebrating, I just you stopped doing the gritty. I

472
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:02,919
Speaker 1: just went on Twitter and I searched the gritty and

473
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: the things that popped up. You had Santa hitting the gritty.

474
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 1: I'm the Nickelodeon. They gritty and you're gonna be sicky

475
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:15,159
Speaker 1: of that gritty because the ladies, So I don't know.

476
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 1: Oh I see it. Oh no, I stopped gritty twenty

477
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: twenty three. That is my that's my that's my campaign.

478
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: Gritty Gate were twenty two. We're done with the gritty, y'all.

479
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,120
Speaker 1: Oh man, I can't stop watching this now. Wife said

480
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 1: she was embarrassed. His wife. Mike said, my wife told me,

481
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 1: do not ever embarrass me like that, and he did

482
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 1: it twice. So I think, all right, I gotta I

483
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: gotta exit that search that was that was hurting my

484
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 1: eyes a little bit. Sorry. I had to get that

485
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: off my chest. I've been I've been saying that for

486
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 1: a while behind the We're here for you, We're here

487
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 1: for you. It's bad. Um, I forgot we were talking

488
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:57,920
Speaker 1: about were talking about CD's doing it right, y'all. But

489
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: the most interesting thing that I found about conversations this

490
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 1: week in the locker room and listening back to it

491
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 1: was how impactful t Y Hilton has been, just like

492
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 1: right off the gate. And we knew he was going

493
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,439
Speaker 1: to be because that he told us right for his

494
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 1: introductory press conference. He literally said, if y'all think that,

495
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 1: y'all gonna let me go out there and not put

496
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 1: hands on me or not double cover me. Y'all are crazy,

497
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,639
Speaker 1: And then what did he do? His first catch is

498
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,959
Speaker 1: impressive and he was even asked this week, you know, like,

499
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 1: is that how you expected your career to be or

500
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,919
Speaker 1: your first career catch with the Cowboys to be? He said, no,

501
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 1: not really, but I mean like, if if we're gonna

502
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: do it, then we're gonna do it, you know what

503
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 1: I mean. And so I love that immediate impact on

504
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: the field. And I've been saying this all week. That

505
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 1: catch was that made the game because at that point,

506
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 1: when you look at what had happened before, they were

507
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 1: backed up twice with you know, negative yardage there, you

508
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 1: don't make that catch. Now you're giving the ball back

509
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,719
Speaker 1: to Garner Minshew in pretty good field position. I mean,

510
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 1: I like anger and I like his ability to punt.

511
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 1: But even still, the way Garner was slinging the ball

512
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: and the way that A J. Brown and DeVante Smith

513
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: were having success in those deep balls, the game is

514
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: over in my opinion, if t Y Hilton doesn't make

515
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: that catch. So you want to talk about being a

516
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 1: momentum shifter on your first big play, and even before that,

517
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 1: when he drew the fourth down past interference or I

518
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 1: guess I think it was a legal contact. But so

519
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 1: two big plays that in his you know, real in

520
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 1: his debut as a cowboy was huge. But I think

521
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,119
Speaker 1: what has been even more important that was revealed this

522
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: week is what he's been doing behind the scenes while

523
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 1: not being on the field. Him and CD both talked about,

524
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 1: you know, how they're making one another better. Ty talked

525
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: about how, you know, helping CD get a little bit

526
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,440
Speaker 1: more separation on a couple of his routes, and how

527
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: you know, if he does this certain way, you're going

528
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 1: to be able to find the end zone better and

529
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: then ceedee lamb does it and scores. And they both

530
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 1: talked about that, and they both talked about how successful

531
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: that they have been at building one another up. It's

532
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 1: very similar to the way I think Jason Peters has

533
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: taken in Tyler Smith, the way Zach Martin has taken

534
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 1: in you know, some of the other guys on the

535
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 1: offensive lineage. I think it's really cool to see that.

536
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 1: But to have that dual threat of being able to say,

537
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 1: you know what I used try, I think if you

538
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 1: do this, you're gonna do well, and then you go

539
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 1: out and you do it, and then I also can

540
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 1: go out and say I'm gonna do this too, and

541
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 1: I do it well. And now all of a sudden,

542
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 1: you know, you have two guys that are producing at

543
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: a high level in different ways. I just think that's

544
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: so important to a wide receiver room that we've talked

545
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 1: about all season that has really needed that extra push

546
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: and that extra guidance. Try and to add to that,

547
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 1: you know, Michael Carthy said, h huns man rap up here. Yeah, yeah, exactly,

548
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 1: And so going into this game, maybe you see some opportunities.

549
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: I think Ty played twelve snaps, twelve snaps obtously impactful,

550
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 1: no snaps. The off the field stuff is so important

551
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,400
Speaker 1: because you just mentioned like a Maria Cooper band gone

552
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: Cede Lamb needing some type of mentorship. We talk about

553
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: this all the time. Is when your mamma tell you

554
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 1: something is different. But then when somebody close to you

555
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 1: be like, mmmm, this look a little crazy what you're

556
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 1: doing here, you listen a little different. And Ty has

557
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,679
Speaker 1: those accolades for a player like se Lamb, who's the

558
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 1: star to be humble in taking on whatever mentorship he's given.

559
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: And that's we talked about is something that I felt

560
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,360
Speaker 1: like was missing in this locker room. CD has been

561
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: the guy you talked about. The competition and having someone

562
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 1: to push him so important, And we talked about from

563
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: the time that the OBJ start talking, like all that

564
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: stuff started happening, like CD started bawling out, like he

565
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: had been balling out. But he's been balling out and

566
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: he's just on such to uptick and mentorship like we've

567
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: both we've all found out it's so important to our

568
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,879
Speaker 1: success moving forward. So I'm glad he has somebody in

569
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 1: the locker room to tell him like, hey man, what

570
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 1: you doing here? Or that was good stuff because you

571
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: need that, Like we need that especially as young people.

572
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and you know, even just looking at the

573
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: long term stamp that these next few weeks could have

574
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: on guys like CD or Michael Gallup to take them

575
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: forward and really elevate them to the next level in

576
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: their play production. I mean, even talking to Michael Gallup

577
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: in the locker room yesterday, I was like, what do

578
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: you think about that catch from Ty? He was like,

579
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: oh's on the sideline and he got so excited. He's

580
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: like I was like, yeah, Like he got so expressive

581
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: when he was talking about it, and that was really

582
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: fun to see. But he also said that the day

583
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: that Ty came in, Ty said, if you guys need anything,

584
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: just ask me. Um And it was funny and Michael

585
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: gall using the words young in that he could help

586
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: the young ins in the room. And so I looked

587
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,239
Speaker 1: up how old Michael Gallup is twenty six. I'm like,

588
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 1: oh man, I'm even older than you. Day, Like, it's

589
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: so weird, it's so weird. It's such a frustrating not frustrating.

590
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: Frustrating is not the right word. But I walk in

591
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 1: there every single day and I look at these men

592
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: and they are men. I'm not taking that away from him,

593
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,239
Speaker 1: but they are babies, you know what I mean. Like

594
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 1: I go in there and I'm like, dang, like I'm

595
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 1: halfway through twenty eight. Yeah, like ye say, Williams just

596
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: turned you know, twenty two. It was funny, but um No,

597
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: he did say it was a big blessing to have

598
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: Ty in there, and the impact that he's made in

599
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: less than two weeks for these guys, I think is

600
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: just absolutely incredible. So imagine the next few weeks getting

601
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: to work with him, especially come playoff time in that

602
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 1: scenario that's going to be so so important and you're

603
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: even seeing UM And that's the best example we can

604
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 1: we can think of in recent times is Jason Peters

605
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: and Tyler Smith. I think what you're going to see

606
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 1: from Tyler Smith because Jason Peters was brought in, is

607
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: such a different player than what he potentially would have

608
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: been without that mentorship from Jason Peters. So I think

609
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: having t Y in here at this time is absolutely

610
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: perfect because it's only going to elevate CD, it's only

611
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 1: going to elevate Michael Gallop and UM the perfect time

612
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: that they need to do it to make this playoff

613
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: push because playoff contention, playoff picture right now is getting

614
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 1: very interesting as time goes on. So we'll see. I

615
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 1: can't wait to see how defenses react to on that.

616
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: I know, I was just say that like now it's

617
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: like it's like gang, Like he told y'all, y'all didn't listen. Yeah,

618
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: and the Eagles you got made an example of. So

619
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 1: now I kind of just feel like, you know, Thang

620
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 1: like a guy to account for. And that's like you said,

621
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: that's going like he's give and take. He's give and

622
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 1: take it's like you help me, I'll help you hop me.

623
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: M Yeah, it's interesting for sure. And I I was

624
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 1: having this conversation with my family over Christmas break, you know,

625
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: the you know, was the t Y Hilton signing better

626
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 1: than adding and OBJ And obviously like and I'm talking

627
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 1: to you like if OBJ was ready to go, you know, like,

628
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 1: do you take OBJ or do you take t why Hilton?

629
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: And I think initially my gut or my gut reaction

630
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: is we need OBJ. He's explosive, He's a guy that

631
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 1: his you know, we've seen the plays that he can make,

632
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 1: like like, he's the guy we need ob J. But

633
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 1: now that I've seen t Y Hilton both in the

634
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: locker room and his work ethic and what he can

635
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 1: contribute in two plays, two game changing plays, I'm all

636
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: in on t Y. I'm also like on a whole

637
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 1: nother note like him him. I think to him taking

638
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 1: off the time to be with his kids is one

639
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 1: of the dopest things that I have seen NFL player do.

640
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure that plenty do it. But when you talk

641
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 1: about setting an example and being a mentor, he took

642
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: care of his body. Was like, man, I don't get

643
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 1: a chance to see my kids like that. I feel

644
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: like that also, too, is healthy for some of these

645
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 1: young guys to see. Not that you want them to

646
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 1: just take off for injury or anything like that, but

647
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 1: the importance of being there when you can. Yeah, And

648
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: it just adds to like, is this fit the right

649
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 1: fit right now? Cowboys have one of the youngest locker

650
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: rooms in the NFL. So just to add on to

651
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 1: what you're saying about him being a good fit and

652
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 1: maybe the best fit for the Cowboys right now, when

653
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 1: you have a young locker room like this of young men,

654
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: I think it's good to have a man like him

655
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: in their mentor in them as well. I also want

656
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 1: to say too, going back to that illegal contact flag

657
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 1: that he got drawn, it's such a veteran move when

658
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 1: you look at how he did it. And not only that,

659
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 1: so they were fourth and eight, it was Dallas's third drive.

660
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: I'm just going through my notes here. What you see

661
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 1: that be set up for is Ceedee Lambs success because

662
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: that was right before Ceedee Lamb got his touchdown. And

663
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: so again it's not that tis coming in here to

664
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 1: take this wide receiver once spot from CD and I

665
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 1: hope nobody gets that confused, But what it is is

666
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 1: it's setting up other guys for success. To have him

667
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 1: on the field very much so like a Micah Parson's

668
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 1: presence on the defense, you have t Y Hilton on

669
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: the offense to set the other guys up for big plays.

670
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 1: And that fourth down was essentially, like you look at

671
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: the way the game played out, that was essential to

672
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,479
Speaker 1: get that touchdown to CD. And then you know, we

673
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: saw the little dance. It was not the gritty, which

674
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: just added on top of that. So I just want

675
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: to add there that he is going to be imperative

676
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: to setting these guys up for success, which is great

677
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: to see. I agree you were talking about looking at

678
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 1: your notes, So I went back and look on that play.

679
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: So I literally have cowboys started drive Turpin. Huh so

680
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:47,719
Speaker 1: the flee flat. Yeah, he was trying to hit Gallup

681
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 1: but that clearly didn't work. And then I have fourth

682
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 1: and eight t Y Hilton penalty for us with a

683
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: bunch of exclamation points. Second and fourteen DAC to Gallup

684
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: and then my next is Cede Lamb spin cycle. I

685
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: was just going, I'm looking at that. That That's how

686
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 1: That's how I take my notes in case you are wondering.

687
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 1: It's funny how how you end up taking notes to

688
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 1: just go back and understand what you were saying. Like,

689
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 1: there's the fleeflicker over here, I have bad don't do

690
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:15,479
Speaker 1: it again, never want to see it. Like, and that's

691
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 1: just how you take your little mental notes. But that fleeflicker, guys,

692
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,400
Speaker 1: what I don't want to talk about it. Oh my goodness,

693
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: that just triggered me. We talked about it earlier. Yeah,

694
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 1: over complicating day. I even put too cute. I mean, yeah,

695
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,279
Speaker 1: and I like it. We gotta take our next break back.

696
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 1: I like the idea of the play. I told batter that.

697
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: I like that at the very least, Kellen is willing

698
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,720
Speaker 1: to try and take those risks against your most formidable

699
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: opponent this year. Like I like the guts. I don't

700
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,319
Speaker 1: like the timing, but I like the guts. So and

701
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,240
Speaker 1: you know, I like a good vant involvement in the offense.

702
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 1: It's not like, don't do that. That wasn't it? All right?

703
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 1: Good chat about our wide receivers. Obviously, though with the

704
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 1: good comes the bad. So we've got to talk about

705
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 1: this defense that is limping to the finish line as

706
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: we get ready for the Poe season. When we return

707
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,839
Speaker 1: after our final break on Girls Talk, Boys Talk, Run,

708
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: and talk about how this defense can improve in the

709
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks to get ready for the playoffs.

710
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: At Jigsaw Dating, we obviously want the Cowboys to bring

711
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,040

Speaker 1: of the things you read. This is coffee and it's

748

749
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: But we're trying today. All we're trying. We have got

750
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,080
Speaker 1: a few more minutes here on Girls Talk, Boys Talk.

751
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 1: We're gonna get a little bit into the defensive side

752
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,399
Speaker 1: of the ball and where the Cowboys have really kind

753
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: of struggled a little bit over the last couple of weeks.

754
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: But before we do, I want to go over yesterday's

755
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: practice report. We obviously haven't gotten one today doesn't come

756
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: out until later this afternoon, but just something to kind

757
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 1: of give us an idea of where they are the

758
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 1: day before the game. So yesterday you had Dorn's Armstrong,

759
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,959
Speaker 1: who was a full participant after hurting that mee against Jacksonville.

760
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,399
Speaker 1: Noah Brown was full with that foot injury, Jyron curse

761
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 1: to Marcus Lawrence, both limited. That's not surprising though, That's

762
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 1: been the kind of the norm for the last couple

763
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: of weeks. Zack Martin was a full go. I didn't

764
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 1: even know Zach Martin hurt his knee, so that's interesting there.

765
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: Micah Parsons was limited yesterday with a hand injury that

766
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 1: randomly popped up. I did listen to Nick Eatman talk

767
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 1: on one O five through the fan this morning. He

768
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 1: doesn't think it's too big of a concern, but obviously

769
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 1: something to pay attention to when you're Micah Parsons and

770
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 1: you use your hands often. Tony Pollard did not practice

771
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 1: for the second straight day. Layton vander esh also did

772
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 1: not practice. I don't expect to see Layton tomorrow. I

773
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 1: think it's just smart keep him out. You get one

774
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 1: more week, especially like we talked about off the top

775
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: of this, this is kind of a preseason like game.

776
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 1: And then you have Sam Williams who was limited with

777
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 1: a concussion after that car accident. I want to get

778
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,760
Speaker 1: into that in a second real quick. With the Titans,

779
00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:02,720
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry was limited yesterday, Amanier was limited yesterday, Christian

780
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 1: Fulton the cornerback was limited, and Denico Autry the linebacker

781
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 1: was limited. So a lot of those guys who did

782
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 1: not practice still did not practice. But those four, to

783
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 1: me are the ones that stand out as far as

784
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: you know, if we will see them tomorrow. We don't

785
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 1: know if we'll see Derrick Henry, but obviously he is

786
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: a game changer for sure. Before we really dive into

787
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 1: the XS and OS, I want to talk about Sam

788
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 1: Williams because I think he was so profound in speaking

789
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 1: after that car accident. By now, Cowboy's Nation probably knows

790
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,360
Speaker 1: he was involved in a accident right off of the

791
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: highway about five minutes from here, completely totaled his car.

792
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 1: When I saw the pictures in the video, I was

793
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 1: blown away that he walked away with a concussion. I mean,

794
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: it was just it was so horrific to see. And

795
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,439
Speaker 1: I'm going to use the word love here because that's

796
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 1: the only way I can describe it, the way he

797
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: spoke about walking away from that experience and how much

798
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 1: it changed his perspective. He's got a very young son,

799
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 1: and I feel particularly, you know, like touched by this

800
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,319
Speaker 1: because I've spoke to Sam not fifteen minutes before he

801
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,359
Speaker 1: was in that car accident, and we talked about how

802
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 1: he had dressed up as Santa Claus at the Martin

803
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 1: Luther King Junior Center in Dallas to help pass out presents.

804
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 1: To kids in need, and just fifteen minutes before that,

805
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,880
Speaker 1: that's what he was talking about, was how important it

806
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 1: was for these kids to feel like they could have

807
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 1: a regular Christmas. How this year's Christmas for him was

808
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 1: going to be so special because he hadn't really celebrated

809
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 1: Christmas before, but he had. He told me, he said,

810
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,040
Speaker 1: we got the tree, we've got the presidents, the stockings,

811
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:41,879
Speaker 1: we're dressing up in pajamas, and you know, really wanted

812
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 1: to make it a special moment for his son. So

813
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,799
Speaker 1: before we really get into the XS and o's of that,

814
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,879
Speaker 1: I just want to say, like, how thankful I am

815
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 1: that Sam is okay. Sam is kind of like my

816
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: pet cat. I think I covered him a little bit

817
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: when I was living and working in Montgomery. So I

818
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 1: am really really glad that he's okay. Still kind of

819
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: banged up, got some scratches and bruises on his face,

820
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 1: but he's okay. And so I think that that was

821
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 1: just really important to talk about. I don't know if

822
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 1: he's going to play, but I'm honestly just really glad

823
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 1: that he's alive. So I think that's that's very important.

824
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 1: Now I'm off my soapbox that being said, there are

825
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 1: some things that this defense needs to improve on. They

826
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,719
Speaker 1: gave up three hundred and fifty five passing yards to

827
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 1: Garner Minshew, who is a good quarterback. Contrary to what

828
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 1: everybody's saying, I think Garner is a good quarterback. We

829
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 1: came on here last week and we gave credit to

830
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,360
Speaker 1: the Minshew magic. We did. Yeah, I think it's nuts

831
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 1: that we don't think that Garner's good. He was a

832
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 1: starter for two seasons, three seasons, so anyways, but we did.

833
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,920
Speaker 1: We gave up that cornerback spot is still struggling. But

834
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 1: I think you saw Nashon Wright step up and really

835
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: show his confidence and what he's been working on on

836
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,359
Speaker 1: special teams and while he's been inactive. So I love that.

837
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 1: But where are some other areas you think that this

838
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,840
Speaker 1: Cowboys defense really needs to improve, Maybe not this week,

839
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,319
Speaker 1: but going into the playoffs. Where is some or where

840
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,879
Speaker 1: this defense needs to improve to get back to where

841
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:04,760
Speaker 1: they were when we were talking about them being elite.

842
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:09,600
Speaker 1: So the linebacker position is somewhere that teams are going

843
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 1: at you in the past, and although in the run

844
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 1: you're seeing some success there from your linebackers, it's really

845
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 1: the past it's that short intermediate stuff getting them caught

846
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 1: up a bad angle, stuff like that. Really looking for

847
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 1: the linebacker position to shore up. But that it's like

848
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 1: a trickle down effect from you a DT position. But yeah,

849
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,879
Speaker 1: that's where I'm looking at to hopefully improve it right now.

850
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the easy answers sacks, but not

851
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 1: for the reason you're thinking. Not for the reason that

852
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: it's the productivity is lower within that note to build

853
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 1: the confidence back up for themselves, and not because you know,

854
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 1: I don't think the productivity has lowered. I think what

855
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 1: you're seeing is a product of teams having film, teams

856
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 1: having studied the Cowboys defense teams, you know, not necessarily

857
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: figuring them out. But what I want to see is

858
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: I want to see more productivity with sack with the

859
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 1: sacks only because I want the Cowboys these next couple

860
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 1: of weeks to gain their confidence going into the playoffs.

861
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 1: And this team, this Titans team, is the perfect team

862
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 1: to do that with because they're, for one, they're having

863
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 1: trouble scoring in the fourth quarter. They're last in the

864
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 1: league and they score about two point five points per

865
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 1: game in the fourth quarter, which is bad. Not only

866
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:23,480
Speaker 1: that they're on a five games streak and they average

867
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 1: about seventeen point seventeen point nine points per game, twenty

868
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 1: seventh in the league. And when it comes to the

869
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:31,839
Speaker 1: third down conversion, they're twenty seventh in the league again

870
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,760
Speaker 1: with a thirty six point two third down conversion percentage.

871
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 1: All that to say, this is a team that this

872
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 1: defense can go in and bully. Essentially, I want to

873
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 1: see you collapsing that pocket and I want to see

874
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,920
Speaker 1: more sacks, and not because I think the productivity is

875
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: low there. I'm not saying that. I want to see

876
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,480
Speaker 1: the confidence being built built up within this locker room. Again,

877
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,400
Speaker 1: not that they're not confident, not at all, but within

878
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:57,439
Speaker 1: that portion of it, I want to see them built

879
00:43:57,480 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 1: that confidence back up. And that's that's what I'm zoning

880
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 1: in on. It'll be a good week to their right tackle.

881
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,279
Speaker 1: Times right tackles dealing with some type of injury book

882
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 1: and their left tackle has been susceptible in pressure, so

883
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 1: Cowboys should have a few opportunities to maybe get after

884
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 1: the quarterback and build that confidence. I agree. I think

885
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: that this is kind of like how I alluded it

886
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 1: into it in the first block. The first half of

887
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 1: the season, you saw the defense really pick this team

888
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,360
Speaker 1: up when the offense had a lot of injuries and

889
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 1: carry them here. Now, I think it's the offenses turned

890
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,359
Speaker 1: to return the favor. I think that that Jacksonville game,

891
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,640
Speaker 1: what stands out to me is that that was a

892
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 1: game where I know they put up thirty four points.

893
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 1: It's a lot of points, but I think that was

894
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 1: a game where your offense needed to have a over

895
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 1: the top, tremendous game yep, because the defense was very

896
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 1: clearly struggling. So that's what I would like to see

897
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:47,239
Speaker 1: is just this defense is banged up. You've got guys

898
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:51,799
Speaker 1: who have been high productivity all season and they need

899
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:53,840
Speaker 1: some rest. So I'd like to see the offense really

900
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,360
Speaker 1: show up and show out in this game. Before we

901
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,359
Speaker 1: close out two things, I'm going to read a couple

902
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,919
Speaker 1: of stats that might make you feel good Cowboys Nation,

903
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:03,919
Speaker 1: and then we're gonna do game predictions. So I'm gonna

904
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:05,759
Speaker 1: give you guys a chance to think of your score

905
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:07,960
Speaker 1: predictions for the game. Oh yeah, So the first thing

906
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 1: I want to read here is at Dallas is three

907
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,239
Speaker 1: and one against the AFC this season. So that's the

908
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,399
Speaker 1: best since twenty sixteen when they were four and oh

909
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:18,800
Speaker 1: against the AFC South. Dallas leads the NFL with thirty

910
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:22,520
Speaker 1: takeaways this year, after leading the league with thirty four

911
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 1: last season. So if the Cowboys finished this season with

912
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,240
Speaker 1: the lead league in takeaways, they would become the first

913
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: NFL team to lead the league in takeaways in back

914
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 1: to back seasons since Pittsburgh did it in seventy two

915
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,320
Speaker 1: to seventy four. So that's important to pay attention to,

916
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 1: especially when Jayron Curse is coming off of an insane

917
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 1: game with his takeaways. Since Dak Prescott returned from injury

918
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 1: in Week seven, the Dallas Cowboys lead the NFL in

919
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:51,560
Speaker 1: offensive points per game with thirty four point six. Philadelphia

Speaker 1: second with thirty point eight. In Cincinnati is in third

921
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 1: with twenty eight point one, and finally, with a win

922
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:02,760
Speaker 1: on Thursday, Dallas we'll have twelve wins for the second

923
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 1: straight season. The last time they did that in back

924
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 1: to back seasons was ninety four ninety five. That's when

925
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 1: I was born. I've been saying all season that I'm

926
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 1: the Cowboys good Luck Charm. So we're gonna keep it going. Tomorrow,

927
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,640
Speaker 1: We're gonna pick up that twelfth win, and we're gonna

928
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 1: keep this thing rolling into the final week against Washington.

929
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:22,760
Speaker 1: But before we get there, Cowboys Titans, Thursday Night Football,

930
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 1: give me your skill prediction, dang it, give me your

931
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 1: score forty one twenty. I want another forty burger for one.

932
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 1: I want another forty burger. I think I think they're nice. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. Well,

933
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:39,279
Speaker 1: it's hard to run the ball on this Titans d lines.

934
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:43,320
Speaker 1: I want to see how they do with that. Let's say,

935
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:50,320
Speaker 1: let's say twenty twenty eight to light twill 's something

936
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:54,320
Speaker 1: more well somewhere between there, twenty eight twelves and like that. Yeah,

937
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,920
Speaker 1: tighter tis Yeah, you're I'm close. I'm going thirty eight thirteen.

938
00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: And here's why I think Derek or he doesnt play

939
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 1: him row. I think there's no point. I think you

940
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,480
Speaker 1: rest him against the Jaguars, or you rest him so

941
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 1: he can be ready to go against the Jaguars next week.

942
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 1: That's the important game. I think Derrick Henry leads the

943
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:13,359
Speaker 1: league with fourteen rushing touchdowns, so you don't have him

944
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,360
Speaker 1: in your game. You're scoring two point six in the

945
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 1: fourth quarter like he just simply is not happening. So

946
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go thirty eight thirteen. I like to see

947
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,439
Speaker 1: my league Davis get some action. I like to see

948
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,040
Speaker 1: him find, uh, you know, the end zone pretty often.

949
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:26,839
Speaker 1: I'd love to see CD and I'd love to see

950
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 1: t Why Hilton get his first touchdown. So I'm going

951
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:32,640
Speaker 1: thirty eight thirteen Cowboys game. I want to see the

952
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 1: run game get going, like just just some pining pools

953
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:42,480
Speaker 1: and motions. There is shaking her hands. She is imploring

954
00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:44,759
Speaker 1: the Cowboys to get that run game going, get it going.

955
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,800
Speaker 1: You need it for the playoffs. And we're speaking no

956
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:52,359
Speaker 1: jack interception, so can everybody the talking head can zip it.

957
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 1: Let's break the habit that part, ladies. I love having
