I know we're getting too that part of 28 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: the year where for fantasy players, this is where you're 29 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: really gotten trying to position, get yourself ready for the playoffs. 30 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: Not gonna be a long segment for those of you 31 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: that are not fantasy players. Will also have him talk 32 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: a little bit about some of the players on the 33 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: Cowboys and the Eagles that may be of note from 34 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: a fantasy standpoint, and some of those matchups that could 35 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: affect just the game overall, and then we'll get to 36 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: the end of the show. A lot to do, a 37 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: whole lot to do. So let's jump right in. Let's 38 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: talk injuries. Let's get a catchup. I'm gonna run down 39 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: this list and I want you three to tell me 40 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: what you know about where they are from an injury standpoint. 41 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: Let's start first with Taco Charlton he has a shoulder injury, 42 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: did not participate in practice yesterday. Where does he sit? Oh, 43 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: he wasn't out there today either, So still having a 44 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: shoulder injury. Still having a shoulder Henry yea, Yeah, that's 45 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: not good. Yep. Inside jokes aren't really good when it's 46 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: just us. And yeah, most people don't even maybe not 47 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 1: know what the joke was. Yeah, So anyways, he's still hurt, 48 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: he's sorry. I don't he didn't practice today or he's 49 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: not out there now, so it doesn't look like he's 50 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: gonna play. Not a great sign for him. Randy Gregory 51 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: is out there, okay, So that's that's something to watch, 52 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: which we'll see how they shuffle at David Irving's not 53 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: out there, so I would guess they are going to 54 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: have to shuffle their defensive line once again. I would 55 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: guess No on Taco, Yes on Randy, No on Irving. 56 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,519 Speaker 1: That's significant. Those are two people that would play significant 57 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: amount of time or your defensive line. Right right, I'll 58 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: pick up some guys that were out there. Deonte Thompson ribs. 59 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: He was out there, he was so he's having ribs. 60 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: He's having ribs, Okay, Yeah, he's ribs for dinner. Jeff 61 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: Swain not out there then out there, not really sure 62 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: because he did not participate, like in the stretching part 63 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 1: of it. But then he was up working on the 64 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: side with the trainers. Then he got back out there 65 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: doing stuff. He's got a lot of metal going on 66 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: there and his knee, big brace, quite a brace going 67 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: on with his knee. But he was out there like 68 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: catching passes and stuff. So so optimistic about him for now. Yeah. 69 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: Yeahstic shows how bad the tight end position is it 70 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: really I don't think. I think if they had let's 71 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: say Witton was the starter and he was the backup, 72 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: I don't think he'd be playing. I really don't. I 73 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: could be wrong, but I just think they're like, we 74 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: kind of let's put that thing on his knee and 75 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: let's go play. Yeah. I tend to agree with that. 76 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: And it's interesting to note too that they're in shorts today. 77 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: They were didn't even wear helmets yesterday, so they're not 78 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: gonna do like a real practice before they play this game, 79 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: which that's not surprising because it's a short week, but 80 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: small mental reps anyway, you kind of get in the 81 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: game plan down, what are you do in this situation, 82 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: how do you react to this this kind of thing 83 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: that makes it even harder to get a gauge on 84 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: who's actually available to play in a full contact football 85 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: game because running around our shorts, you know, for us exactly, 86 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: I mean they know, but they don't let us or 87 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,239 Speaker 1: take in those conversations, which I think they should connother 88 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: aacy against the Cowboys to give the Super Bowl champion 89 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: Eagles twelve days to prepare and expiracy, give me an 90 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: update on Jeff Thomas because if Sean Lee now I'm sorry, 91 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: Joe Thomas, now that we know that Sean is out 92 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: for a little bit, you'd like to have Joe Thomas back. 93 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: I think it helps to have Joe Thomas back. Where 94 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 1: does he sit with the foot injury? Making progress according 95 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: to Jason Garrett, but not not on that level. It's 96 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: still not ready to to be playing. No, I don't 97 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: think so. So how does that affect the linebacker position? 98 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: Obviously you've got Damien Wilson. Um is that enough? I 99 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: guess it is the best question. Wolf Hunter and the 100 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: younger Smith get after it. Go you're young, you're fresh, 101 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: play well. The expectation is that they are going to play. 102 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: That's my question. Do you think that that's enough. You 103 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 1: think that's enough, you feel good about hurt? Okay, don't. 104 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 1: How does that change things? Though? With the struggles that 105 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: you're having on the D line, what is that? What 106 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 1: do you mean? I mean some of the guys are 107 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: kind of banged up, and like, honestly, when you mentioned 108 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: for example, and I know we haven't been relying on 109 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: David Irving or Randy Gregory, but then now you have 110 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: tackle also kind of banged up. You got DeMarcus Lawrence, 111 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 1: who he had he's been playing, but still kind of 112 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: keep in mind that he's been also dealing with the 113 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: shoulder injury. Even though he says it's fine, it's still 114 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: something to look for. So there are several guys there 115 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: there are struggling a little bit healthwise, which I think 116 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: maybe starting to affect the game because they haven't been 117 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: as productive as they've been in the past. And obviously 118 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: when the line has been playing well again, you get 119 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: Jalen Smith and Layton playing really good too, and it's 120 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 1: all like a combination of things. I don't disagree that 121 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: the fact that they did not have they weren't at 122 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: full streak of defensive line, and then they had their 123 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: worst game, the linebackers had their worst game. I don't 124 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: think it's a coincidence, but I will say this. You 125 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: talk about last game, You've got Gregory out, Taco got hurt, 126 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: Taco probably won't play. Gregory probably will, So you can 127 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: flip there, they're gonna stay the same at tackle. Then 128 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: at linebacker Sean Leadon is not going to play. Who 129 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 1: plays more there? I think that's what you were asking, 130 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: was depth wise march Lillard. Yeah, not only the depth wise, 131 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: but also when you think about it, I guess if 132 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: you believe that maybe the reason why they or if 133 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: you believe the comp that they did get worn down 134 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: as the game went on, then maybe an answer for 135 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: that would be you had one less guy rotating, because 136 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: if you notice Sean Lee, basically what they do is 137 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: they rotate those three linebackers by series. So one series 138 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: you'll have two of them out and one will be out, 139 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: and then the next they'll be the other one is 140 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: in and he'll take one out. Does that affect That's 141 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: my question is does not having Sean Lee affect that 142 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: rotation to the point where those guys are out there 143 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: and maybe don't have the ability to stay as maybe 144 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: they're not as good when they're having to play as 145 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: many reps as it would take for them to play 146 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: the whole game. I would like to have Sean Lee available, 147 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: and I would like to have Joe Thomas available, and 148 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: it could probably help. But I mean that was kind 149 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: of my point. Is I hear what you're saying, Sorry 150 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: you don't have them. Absolutely, there's nobody's gonna feel sorry 151 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: for him. I get that. Well, but they're twenty two 152 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: and twenty three, and we weren't talking about this when 153 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: they were playing really well when Sean Lee was hurt. 154 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: I mean Layton vander esh got the start because of 155 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: an injury in the first place. Yeah, and they played 156 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: great for about three weeks and Nobe and people we 157 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: were sitting here like, how are they going to rotate 158 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: these guys? Is that going to throw them off their game? So, no, 159 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: they don't. They don't need to rotate. They need to 160 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: play better than they did last week, and I feel 161 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: reasonably confident that they will because they've played well more 162 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: often than they haven't. So what do you think about 163 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: signing like Justin Durant or somebody? And I'd say you 164 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: got your three Damien's, you're Sam and Bass, and then 165 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: let the young guns. John Smith Jones comes in here undoing. Yeah, yeah, available, Yeah, 166 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 1: I think so. I think you'd bring in Zach Thomas 167 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: maybe maybe a draft pick that was a good one, 168 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: but that might work special teams. I know that's ideal. 169 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't need to rotate these guys. 170 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: I need my two cornerstone linebackers to play better, play 171 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: like badass. I talk about Joe Thomas and forever I 172 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: forget Shawn Lee and Joe Thomas both heard of in 173 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: the same at the same time. Was there a game 174 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: where they were both out like at the Cowboys show 175 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: got hurt in Seattle and Joe hurt his foot? Um, 176 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: what game was that that would have That was Houston? 177 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: Maybe it was a few weeks ago, week five, Okay, 178 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 1: maybe the Detroit game. Yeah, I felt like it wasn't 179 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 1: at the same time. I just wonder, yeah, yeah, yeah, 180 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: they have they played a game with just really them too. 181 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if they have yet. How don't recall 182 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,719 Speaker 1: maybe Houston they were both healthy. They would have both 183 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: been healthy in week one and week two. Oh, but 184 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: that was a while ago. Well, yeah, I know, but 185 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 1: that's that's my point, Like when just you're just relying 186 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: on Jalen and vander esh had they kind of had 187 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: that before without any experienced depth behind him like that. 188 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Houston probably, but sorry, I played well. 189 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: Thank you. Yesterday we talked about the Philadelphia offense and 190 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: a name you throughout was Darren Sproles has been out 191 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: for them. The expectation was that he was going to 192 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: be active back this week. Dave. There was a report 193 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: that just came out from Adam Scheff to what do 194 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: he say? He tweaked his hamstring in practice and he's 195 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: down again, which I would never year for an injury 196 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: for anybody, but helps the Cowboys. It definitely helps the Cowboys. 197 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: And he had smart Alex in my mentions today, like 198 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: big deal was he going to play quarterback for? Like 199 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: why is this matter? It's like it matters, dude, And 200 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: that's if you don't think it matters, you haven't seen 201 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 1: Darren Spowls playing. He's a mismatched player. He can return punts, 202 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: he catches the ball out of the backfield. I mean 203 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: I've seen him kill the Cowboys for two different teams. Actually, 204 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: did anybody watch the game last week? I mean nobody's yeah, 205 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: Deon Lewis and he's the same kind of player that's well. 206 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: Sproles probably a better player at least in his career, 207 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,439 Speaker 1: he's been a better player than Dion Lewis, but it's 208 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: that kind of player for sure. He did not account 209 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: well for receivers catching the ball out of the backfield 210 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: in that game. And so it matters that Darren Sproles 211 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: can't play. Wendel Smallwood and Corey Clement can still do 212 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: the job, but they'll do those kinds of things. They 213 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: don't scare me as much as Darren Sproules does, even 214 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: at forty five or whatever. How he's He's been in 215 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: the league, man like since I was ten years old, 216 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: So I don't know that's it's a significant development, all right, 217 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: real quick, um, And this is just for people to 218 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: just kind of keep an idea of where he is. 219 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 1: Tavon Austin, He's still obviously going to be out, but 220 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: have we heard anything more about where he is? This 221 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: progress progress back? Is this something that may be coming 222 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: in a week or two. Is this something that really 223 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: is going to be here at the best case scenario 224 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: you're looking at late November December. I'm gonna peel the 225 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: curtain back on the way like beat writers do stuff, 226 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: which is like, depending on the injury, you're like hounding 227 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: people for information, especially like if you're like, well can 228 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: he get back? What game Tavon Austin or for any 229 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: injury where you know. And again, when he got hurt, 230 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: there were rumblings that maybe I R was a possibility. 231 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: And in a situation like that, if it's very obvious 232 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: he's not coming back for four or more weeks, it 233 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,719 Speaker 1: just kind of flies under the radar. It falls in 234 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: that category. I'm not gonna worry about it until it 235 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 1: falls in the category of he ain't playing against the Eagles, 236 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: So I got other stuff I gotta worry about. And 237 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: then in another there two or three weeks, people will 238 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: start saying, where's Tavon? At is he? Is he getting 239 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: close to coming back? And so I feel like we're 240 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: still a little ways from that. I mean, so this 241 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: is not a thing that's even imminent. And I'm not 242 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: talking this week, I'm talking about next week. It doesn't 243 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: feel like it's imminent. It feels like it's something that's 244 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: farther off than that. I don't get the impression he'll 245 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: be ready, okay until maybe after Thanksgiving, yeah, like Thanksgiving 246 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: or maybe the game after Thanksgiving, or haven't been seeing 247 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: him around in the locker room either. He's been around, 248 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: but like, yeah, exactly, like you know, you keep it again. 249 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,439 Speaker 1: You go to practice and you're like, well, Jeff Swain's 250 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: on the chords, and you know Taco's doing this, and 251 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: Tavan's just one. I mean, he's at practice, but he's not. 252 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: He doesn't look like a guy who I was standing 253 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,719 Speaker 1: in a ball cap, yeah, wearing a ball cap in 254 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: a hoodie and you know, chatting with the offensive coaches 255 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: and looking like a guy who's not planning on playing soon. 256 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna take our first break.

Tough unit. What you got? Tough unit, but 305 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: a banged up unit. Uh, big time. Like we we 306 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: talk a lot about the injuries Washington is dealing with. 307 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: H this is you know, you look at the Eagles numbers. 308 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: They've fall into seventeenth in total defense, they're twenty fifth 309 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: against the past, they are second. Yeah, carve him up. 310 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: Well we'll get I'll get him. We'll get to that. Uh, 311 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: just salivating over there. Still still second against the run 312 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: eighty four yards per game and fifth fifth in scoring. 313 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: Which you so you're like, well, this what happened to 314 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: this mighty unit? Why are they mediocre? Everybody's hurt? Um, 315 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: starting with most importantly, in my opinion, Rodney McCleod, their 316 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: free safety. Gave him a lot of money a couple 317 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: off seasons ago, and he's played, he's played very well. 318 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: He's not back there. Um. Tim Jernigan, defensive tackle who 319 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: partnered so well, the guy they traded for, he was 320 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: he wrecked shop next to Fletcher Cox. He is on NFI. 321 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: He hasn't been able to play. Oh yes, his issue 322 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: his knee. I think he's been out. He's limited in 323 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: practice right now. Like he's he's kind of like Noah Brown, 324 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: like he's on the field, but they haven't activated under 325 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: the active roster. I don't expect to see him this 326 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: weekend Superstar. First round draft pick Derek Barnett had two 327 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: and a half sacks in the first few weeks of 328 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: the season. He's on IR reserve linebacker Paul Warlow, reserve 329 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: safety Chris Marigoes. So they've got three starters and two 330 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: other like key contributors on IR right now. On top 331 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: of that, you got Jalen Mills dealing with an injury 332 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: an ankle. Yeah, they're starting cornerback jale Mills. LSU guy 333 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: dealing with an ankle, uh Corey Graham, their replacement safety 334 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 1: has been in and out of the lineup with injuries 335 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: of his own. So they're banged up. Um, but they 336 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 1: still got the one notable dude down in the middle. 337 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 1: Do they really do? And that's the funny thing is 338 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: like this pass rush looks completely different than it did 339 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 1: even a year ago. Like they shifted of any Curry 340 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 1: off to Tampa Um. Jernagin hasn't been playing. They got 341 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: rid of they got rid of another end that they had. 342 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,239 Speaker 1: Derek Barnett is on it. No, they still have well, 343 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: they they have Brandon Graham. But then but they got 344 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: some horses. They got Fletcher Cox. Ye, he's really good. Um, 345 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: he's he's really he's really good. And uh he scares me. 346 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 1: I mean so that it's it sucks because the things 347 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 1: that the Eagles don't do well are things that the 348 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: Cowboys can't take advantage of or haven't been able to 349 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: take advantage of. And the things that they do really 350 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: well are exactly what the Cowboys want to do. They 351 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 1: want to run right at you, right. The Eagles don't 352 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,479 Speaker 1: let people do that. I'm gonna I'm gonna read some 353 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 1: stats off to you. Against Atlanta, they gave up seventy 354 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: four total rushing yards. Those are good running backs against them. Tampa, 355 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: it was forty three against Indy. It was sixty eight 356 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: against the Titans, it was seventy Minnesota seventy seven. Slipped 357 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 1: up and gave up one hundred and fifty total rushing 358 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,439 Speaker 1: yards to the Giants, who they beat by thirty points. 359 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: They gave up one twenty one to Carolina and seventy 360 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,640 Speaker 1: to the Jags last week. You're leading rushers. Okay, I'll 361 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 1: just throw this out there. Saquon Barkley had one hundred 362 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: and thirty yards against him, played the game of his life. 363 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: So far. He's the only running back that has tallied 364 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: fifty yards against this front so far, the only one 365 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 1: Atlanta's leading rusher thirty six, Tampa twenty two, Indie thirty three, 366 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: Tennessee forty six, Minnesota forty two, Carolina forty nine, Jacksonville 367 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: forty three. Now, the one thing you can say about that, though, 368 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: is Saquan is the only best caliber, high caliber running 369 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: back in that group except for maybe mccaff free. You 370 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: want to put him in that category that he did 371 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: some other things catching passes out of back room, I will, 372 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: I will throw this sliver of hope out at you. Yeah. Four, well, 373 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: a sliver of hope. Depending on how cynical you want 374 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 1: to be. Four different quarterbacks have been their team's leading 375 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 1: rusher against the Eagles, including Cam Newton who went for 376 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: seventy one. Yes, you think that the Cowboys are gonna 377 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: do that? Okay, they have to, they do, have they have. 378 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: There's no way they can look at those numbers and 379 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: not say we got to get him involved in the running. 380 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: It's what you think we're gonna do. If they try 381 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: to line up and smash the ball right up the 382 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: gut of this defense, they're going to have a bad time. 383 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: That's just what I think. I think so underestimating Sulphie Little, 384 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: I mean maybe or Adam Redmond. We don't know yet. Whoever. 385 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: We didn't even talk about that real quick. We saw 386 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 1: that a practice today yesterday. I think Redmond got a 387 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: lot of snaps left guard today looked like so to 388 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: see out but without when you're doing it in shorts, 389 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 1: can you really tell anything other than do they have 390 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: the assignment right? That's what I was just saying to 391 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 1: Rob and Nick at practices, like how are they supposed 392 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 1: to evaluate these guys? Yesterday was a walkthrough? Do they 393 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: know the assignment? Like that's a part of him seeing 394 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: this sign and no one's supposed to do which Nick 395 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: Nick had a very uh he had a useful conversation 396 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 1: where what the thing they like about Adam Redmond is 397 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: he's incredibly smart, very smart. Actually, I mean I talked 398 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: to Will McClay a little bit this morning. He's doing 399 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: special Editions show. Talked to him this morning. He said 400 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: he is extremely smart and understanding things I would have 401 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: thought that when I saw the roster that said Harvard, 402 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: I would have already assumed that you didn't need to 403 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: hear it now. But but from a football smart situation, 404 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: it sounds like that that's one thing that'll help him. 405 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: Swophilo has got the drafted higher and played more games. 406 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: Smart's one thing. But is he strong? Because if you're 407 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: going to be up against that beast, you better be strong. 408 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 1: I was about to be a jury can say it's 409 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: awesome that you're smart, But is that really going to 410 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: help me against Fletcher Cox? Because I know now and 411 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: well that's not directed at you, but I mean go, 412 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're a Cowboys fan, you've seen him play, 413 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,199 Speaker 1: but like, go throw on the all twenty two of 414 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: Fletcher Cox and just watch him like either just rip 415 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: past double teams or just push two guys into the 416 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: backfield which allows Michael Bennett to one each yeh, he's 417 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 1: just bench pressing. He's just like and the crazy thing 418 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,959 Speaker 1: he still gets he's still leading the team in sacks, 419 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: even though every week the opponent comes in like, we 420 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: gotta do something with this guy. He's got He's got 421 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: four sacks, I want to say five tackle for loss 422 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: he's double teamed every week. It doesn't matter because even 423 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: he's blowing it up and then Michael Bennett's looping behind 424 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: him and just getting the free run at the quarterback 425 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: because there's nobody left to block it. I would I 426 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: think I would too, because you've talked to him a 427 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: little bit um in the locker room. But there's something 428 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: about his demeanor like it's like, I don't know if 429 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: this is good or bad at it maybe not fit 430 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 1: exactly what Mark Colombo's style is, but I just the 431 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: whole it's gonna be too big for him. I don't 432 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: think this would be I don't think anything. Really. He 433 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 1: was really upset. He's a really nice guy, very friendly guy. 434 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: Always says, Hi, how are you doing? Yesterday I walked by, 435 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 1: didn't say a word. I'm like, oh, he's playing, he's playing. 436 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: How are you. He's like, I'm just upset and I'm 437 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: trying to calm down, and I'm like, why what happened? 438 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: He's like, just just practice and he stayed out there 439 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: longer and he said he made one mistake and I 440 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: don't know what the mistake was, but he made it 441 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 1: and that really upset him. He's like, I cannot make 442 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 1: that kind of mistake. I'm like, well, you need to 443 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: calm down, like, that's what practice is for, for you 444 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: to make those mistakes here and fix them, work on it. 445 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: And then the problem is for him right now. Yeah, 446 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: he's auditioning for an opportunity that maybe his only opportunity. 447 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: The heart one. Dan Bailey was a rookie and there 448 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: was five kickers on the team. Seriously, five kickers. Every 449 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 1: practice kick was a huge It's an audition that was 450 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: But I told I told him, I'm like, look, the 451 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: fact that you're feeling this way shows that you care 452 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: and you're you're invested in it and you're wanting to 453 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: try and do the best that you can, and you 454 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,360 Speaker 1: always want that in a player. So he I mean, 455 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 1: I didn't talk to Uh, maybe I should. I think 456 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: that's the fair thing to do. You need to go 457 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,199 Speaker 1: to Dan, talk to Redman. He doesn't. He should have 458 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,360 Speaker 1: the benefit of having Spanish. He should have the benefit 459 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: of having you come and sit down and counsel him 460 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,640 Speaker 1: the same way you did with Suafhilo. Right. Yeah, I'll 461 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: analyze him today, see what the mood. Analyze like, I'll 462 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 1: get to the different, different guy because like the other 463 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: day practice in the locker room him was a Friday 464 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,239 Speaker 1: and things were a little bit loose. He is like 465 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: blaring his music, which is no different than a lot 466 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: of guys that will do that country music. Though, yeah, 467 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 1: like I don't really he Selo, yes, like ten fifteen 468 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: songs on a round Redman Suphilo, So you're not giving 469 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: him his dude, Suahilo has been the DJ in the 470 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: country music No, no, it's okay. He plays everything I 471 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: thought you're meaning, like daily he is in there. It's 472 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: country time. He was playing Cameo a couple of weeks ago. 473 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: He was playing he plays Marvin Gay and he'll play it, 474 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: so he knows he's doing Oh, he definitely knows. He'll 475 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 1: play Hispanic music that. I'm like, how in the world 476 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 1: you know this song like this is old school, like 477 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: old schools things that only he lived in Houston for 478 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 1: like five years. I mean, what does that? What does 479 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: that mean? So he lived there for thirty does does 480 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: that have anything? The one thing wrong Hispanic culture in Houston. 481 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: That's all of Texas. I feel like Houston more so, 482 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: though I don't know, maybe I haven't lived there in 483 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,199 Speaker 1: twenty five thirty years, So maybe I would start Swiffhilo. 484 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: Maybe we've seen we've seen that left guard position. We've 485 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 1: seen guys that come in that that play well there, 486 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 1: now you've changed your mind from moving lyle. They're not 487 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: gonna do it. No, I think he prefers that. I 488 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: think he just knows that that's not gonna happen. That's 489 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,160 Speaker 1: the thing. Now, say it's like, do you want me? 490 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: Do you really want me to just wax on about 491 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 1: like what I what I want to happen or what 492 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: I think will will happen.

Yeah, I've heard that gonna rant. Yeah, 495 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: I heard that gonna go. But wax last time I 496 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 1: heard wax On was Kreti kid. Yeah, um, you watched 497 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: this problem. Yes, I think, Yes, I am firmly in 498 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: the Connor Williams. I'm on that bandwagon. I'm not getting off. 499 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: But it might be a blessing in disguise that he 500 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: doesn't have to play this game, which and so I would. 501 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,199 Speaker 1: I would play through a filo too. I think he 502 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: gives you the best bet against the sky with especially 503 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: if you think he's If he's a strong player, like 504 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: he plays with power, then to me, you may actually 505 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: be better off. And this is not about what Connor 506 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: can be in the future. It's about where Connor is 507 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: right now. Is a rookie. He's not gonna come in 508 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: as a rookie. I mean, we knew when he was 509 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: drafted that all the scouting reports. We're talking about the 510 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: fact that he's gonna have to get stronger, he's gonna 511 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 1: have to put on like he's got to do those 512 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: things in order to get to where he wants to be. 513 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 1: But you can't do that in that offseason where you're 514 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: just getting drafted and then you're coming into the NFL. 515 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,239 Speaker 1: He'll be there next year the year after that. So 516 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 1: this may actually be a good thing, like you said, 517 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 1: not only for Connor, but for the Cowboys. If Suefila 518 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: can play with power, or whoever's gonna play that position 519 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 1: can play with power, I think we've seen in the past. 520 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: I remember a couple years ago against the Giants up 521 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: there where they had those two big guys in the middle, 522 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys did not feel comfortable running the ball 523 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: in between the tackles. You saw a lot of it 524 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 1: might have been the first game we saw a lot 525 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: of lucky Whitehead go on side to side. I think 526 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: that they're gonna have to do that more than ever 527 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: in this game. I mean, run jet sweeps, run Dak 528 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: to the side, do those things to kind of saw 529 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: from the middle. I'm not I'm not saying do a 530 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 1: lot of counters around the gold line where take four 531 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: hours to get there. I'm talking about running misdirection type 532 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: things like that. I would because I hope you can't 533 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 1: just move these guys. That's I agree, and I think 534 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: that's misdirection. I think Dak needs to have an active 535 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,400 Speaker 1: role as a runner in this game, or at least 536 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: the threat of it. I would love to see some 537 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,120 Speaker 1: jet sweet type of stuff or maybe like bubble screens, 538 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 1: like they don't ever throw those types. I mean they do, 539 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: but not. Re Cooper would be pretty good for that. 540 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: Cooper had a really nice play. A slant over the 541 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 1: middle might have been his last catch, ten yard catch. 542 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: Guys jumped on him. He got about sixteen yards. That 543 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 1: was the most deslike thing that we've seen out of 544 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 1: him in that first game. But I mean it wasn't 545 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: just getting open and making a catch. It was it 546 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 1: was actually, you know, just kind of carrying defenders being 547 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: a big body guy. I thought that was the most 548 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 1: encouraging thing that I saw out of him. And I mean, 549 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: you know, that's that's got to make some plays down 550 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: the field. Ronald Darby's a solid cover guy. Jayleen Mills 551 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 1: is gimpy. He's also he's he is an up and 552 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: down inconsistent guy. Corey Graham is not your preferred free safety. 553 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 1: He's also gimpy. They might have to play Avante Maddox, 554 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,479 Speaker 1: who was a rookie at safety. And then I respect 555 00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,040 Speaker 1: the hell out of Malcolm Jenkins, but he's not like 556 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 1: he's not an elite cover safety like they put him 557 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 1: in the box. He blitzes, he contributes to pressure. He's 558 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: not you know, he's not taking the deep ball away, 559 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: I don't think. I mean, I saw him give up 560 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: balls down the field to Blake Bortle, indeed Westbrook. So 561 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 1: you can take advantage of these guys, and they just 562 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: they have to. It's unfortunate because this is it's strength 563 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 1: on strength and weakness on weakness. I mean, the Cowboys 564 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 1: are going to have to play well in the passing game, 565 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 1: which is not something they've been able to do on 566 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: a regular basis. You know me, I would ask you 567 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: if like Eric Allen was playing for them, But he 568 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 1: works here, so we've seen him in good points. So 569 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,199 Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna take our final break. When we 570 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: come back. We got to Steve if you can. Buchanan 571 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: joining us. He is from Draft King.

You guys, 574 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: call us eight eight eight five five two two nine 575 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:51,479 Speaker 1: seven is the number.

When picking a tractor, 582 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: it's why you should rely on more than just specs 583 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: and features. You've got to take it out and put 584 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: it to the test.

Part of what we do. Okay, 648 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: fantasy never sleeps, right, That's right, you got it. So 649 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 1: what you got for us today? Let's start maybe with 650 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: some some some people that we should be looking at 651 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: this week, maybe some starts and some sits that just 652 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: based upon different matchups around the league. Yeah, definitely mean 653 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: we'll just start with the Cowboys here with Amari Cooper. 654 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 1: I mean, this is certainly an encouraging game used for 655 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: Cooper last week. Caught five of the day's targets or 656 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: fifty nine yards in a touchdown, and looks they have 657 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: a fantastic fatchup coming up this week against the Eagles. Specifically, 658 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: Cooper is going to be and Jalen Mills. Ye. I 659 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: don't know how familiar you guys are with Mills, but 660 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: I mean he has just been absolutely atrocious and coveraged 661 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: so far this season. Has been target against forty nine times, 662 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 1: allowing thirty two receptions for five hundred and sixteen yards. 663 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: This is just one of those matches that you dream 664 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: about for Cooper here and it's like you should really 665 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: flourish in this spot here. I'm really all the Cowboys 666 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: receivers are in great squats there in such a poor 667 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: Eagle secondary. Do you factor in at all? Like you mean, 668 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: you're looking at what other guys have done and against 669 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: the Eagles. But obviously the Cowboys passing game has been 670 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: challenged and Dak Prescott has not played, you know, to 671 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 1: the level that people maybe we're expecting what you're factoring 672 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: in that kind of stuff. I mean, even though the 673 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys aren't haven't really as Dave said earlier, this is 674 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: kind of weakness on weakness the Cowboys are as the Eagles. 675 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: Um does that way into to your you know, value 676 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: that you put on receivers like Cooper and Beasley, I mean, 677 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 1: it certainly does. But when you when you look at 678 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: what some of these teams have done to these guys 679 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: already they're talking about the Eagle secondary, you know, they 680 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 1: just can't cover any guys when it goes through practice years. 681 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 1: So many issues in that realm. So you know, while 682 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 1: that does come into factor, I mean we saw a 683 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: Cooper did so quickly already in the and the connection 684 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: he had with Prescott, so I don't mind taking that spot, 685 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't be going heavy with them, but I think, 686 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: like you know, like I mentioned earlier, Cooper is in 687 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 1: such a just a great spot that I'd definitely be 688 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: looking at them. Would you expand that out to the 689 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,720 Speaker 1: quarterback and maybe consider Dak Prescott a sleeper type quarterback 690 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: this week if you had guys on buys or whatever 691 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: the case might be. I mean, obviously Prescott is someone 692 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: that it's tough to trust on a weekend and week 693 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 1: out of basis, but this is one of those matchups 694 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: that he should be set up for success. I mean, 695 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,800 Speaker 1: we saw how well they did against the Jaguars earlier 696 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 1: this season, so I mean, he how does that potential 697 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:56,320 Speaker 1: It's just a matter of that he's going to be 698 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: able to actually come through for us here. So you know, 699 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: Prescott is some and I probably use maybe just in tournaments, 700 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: but he's definitely in play here in such a good 701 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: match up for him. How About like the Eagles. Obviously 702 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,240 Speaker 1: they got one of the best tight ends of the league, 703 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: but after arts, they seem like they're they're tough for 704 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 1: fantasy owners because they just play so many guys. And 705 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 1: then now you're factoring in Golden Tate, who has done 706 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: great things in Detroit. But where do you put him 707 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: when when now he's in this mix of a lot 708 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: of talented players over there. Yeah, I mean obviously they're 709 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: going to be feeding the balls to Tate. I mean, 710 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: that's who they got for. I mean it's detrimental to 711 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 1: the value of Nelson Agolo, who's just absolutely gone in 712 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: terms of you know, youth gets here. But you know, 713 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 1: I like Tating this spot. I think he's someone that 714 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: you know they're going to be looking to feature more 715 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: and more, and it just really opens up for other guys, 716 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: like also on Jeffrey. I mean, with Tate on the 717 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 1: Steel now it's just another threat there. And Arts is 718 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,879 Speaker 1: on the Steel Dalis Walls, I mean, weekend and week out, 719 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:51,879 Speaker 1: the Eagles of somebody you're definitely going to be looking at. 720 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,359 Speaker 1: But you know, the Cowboys aren't terrible defensively either, so 721 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 1: it's not a smash spot for them. I like the 722 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys matchup more than I do the Eagles. But school, 723 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: I think this is good. I think there's going to 724 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: be a pretty solid game. DFF wise, I got a 725 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 1: question for my own personal team, and I think that 726 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: some other people might have the same thing, you know, 727 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: obviously dealing with buys. Justin Tucker Kicker for Baltimore, who's 728 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: a guy you can pick up? And this week, who's 729 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 1: who's a waiver wire type guy that would have maybe 730 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:25,800 Speaker 1: a good matchup specifically for kickers or just in general. Yeah, kickers, 731 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean you have anybody? Yeah, I mean, 732 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,440 Speaker 1: I mean lasts aren't really two kickers too much. I 733 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: mean I can't say that, you know, over the problems kickers. 734 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 1: I just picked up a forty five year old Adam Vinitary, 735 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 1: So there you go. I mean that works, Bailey, No, thanks, 736 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 1: the lead score all time? Yeah guy, Yeah, absolutely, And 737 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: I'm looking at you know, okay, who's kicking indoors or 738 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville or whatever. I don't you know, I don't 739 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: don't get me a guy that's going to Soldier Field 740 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: this week, you know, or whatever you could call. Yeah, 741 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: well that's uh. I guess one out throw out there 742 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 1: is what do you think about a guy I've been 743 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:08,719 Speaker 1: having a hard time figuring out how much I want 744 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: to use him in Adrian Peterson. He's a guy that's 745 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: been up and down. He's had some great weeks, but 746 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: even on weeks when statistically he does well from a 747 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,319 Speaker 1: fantasy standpoint, it hasn't been great. What do you think 748 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 1: of a player like that. Yeah, so Peterson has been 749 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: more you know, game script dependent. I mean, in wins 750 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 1: he's averaging over twenty five, he gay fantasy points in 751 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 1: those games when they're when they're losses, he's everything just 752 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 1: six in. The problem is he's just not utilized enough 753 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 1: in the passing game to really be someone that you 754 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: can rely on. But in a game like this week 755 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,799 Speaker 1: against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, they're not terrible against the run, 756 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 1: but we know how to have a Tampa Bay Buccaneers 757 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 1: defense is overalls. I mean, I feel like this is 758 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: a spot where Peterson should bounce it down because last 759 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 1: week he was he was terrible. I mean, the Falcons 760 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 1: just absolutely threw the doors off of the Redskins there, 761 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 1: so we only scored six point three decay fantasy points. 762 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: But this is a game where it's things the riskins 763 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 1: should be in it a bit more than they were 764 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 1: last week, so that should just given the carries to Peterson. 765 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,399 Speaker 1: But like I mentioned, he just doesn't get enough work 766 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 1: in the passing game. He's only seeing three targets at 767 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,520 Speaker 1: the most anytime this season. But yeah, Peterson, he's only 768 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: fifty seven hundred this week. I think this is a 769 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:16,919 Speaker 1: really good spot for and so I like him a lot. 770 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: Talking to Steve Buchanan of Draft Kings, uh, and before 771 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 1: we let you go, we'll give you one more quick. 772 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,359 Speaker 1: Give me one guy that would be a sleeper type guy, uh, 773 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: that you that people might be on if they're playing, 774 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: you know, daily fantasy, they maybe look at and say, hey, 775 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:32,319 Speaker 1: here's a guy I might want to pick up for 776 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: relatively cheap that can give me a big return. Yeah. 777 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:42,240 Speaker 1: I really like Dion Lewis this week. He's only done lately. 778 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:45,759 Speaker 1: But I mean, just again, this matchup sets up so 779 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: nicely and for him against the Patriots. I mean, first 780 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: of all, we've got to talk about the revenge yard 781 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: if he's going against his former team here, but they 782 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: simply have no answers for running back to catch passes 783 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 1: up the backfield. Talking about the Patriots, I mean, if 784 00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: the Bills can scrape up ninety three yards of offense 785 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 1: and situation, you know, he got some issues there. I mean, 786 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:04,759 Speaker 1: but they're allowing in average sixty one yards per game 787 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 1: in this scenario with three touchdown to scored. I don't 788 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: think Titans are gonna win this game, but they're gonna 789 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: be playing from behind. So let's just benefits the opportunity 790 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: that Lewis is going to have here. And look, the 791 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 1: Titans offense is not somebody who really looked for for 792 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: offensive production, but a new type of game. I think 793 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: it matches up so well for Lewis in the spot. 794 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: All right, great, Steve, we appreciate you join us. We'll 795 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 1: say next Thursday, y'all take I mean, I appreciate that, um, 796 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:29,839 Speaker 1: And we'll do that every week. So if you guys 797 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: have any questions out there specific to fantasy football, you 798 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: want to get those questions in, we'll definitely ask Steve 799 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 1: in future weeks to send them to Cowboys Break on 800 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 1: Twitter and we'll make sure we get those questions to 801 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: him soon. Lewis, Yeah, we've heard his work before. We 802 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: before we end did. Had I known he was gonna 803 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,960 Speaker 1: start doing this, I would have probably started playing fans. 804 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 1: I didn't tell you that, No, Yeah, that got left 805 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 1: out of the pre production the production meeting. That's okay, 806 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:01,239 Speaker 1: though Nick knew cool Now that's fun though. Cool. All right, 807 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: so let's get this. I did have this one question 808 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 1: I wanted to go back to you, Dave. You were 809 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:09,240 Speaker 1: talking about the Eagles defense, how they fared against running 810 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 1: backs coming out of the backfield, because he talked about 811 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: Dion Lewis, obviously, and when you look at um, you 812 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 1: look at um, a guy like Christian McCaffrey, you look 813 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: at sa Quon Barkley. How did they fare when it 814 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 1: came to situations where they were catching out of the backfield. 815 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:25,880 Speaker 1: We did see Cowboys do a little bit more with 816 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: with Zeke last week. Let's not let's not compare anybody 817 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: to what sa Quon Barkley did against this team. I mean, 818 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 1: I gotta see it with my I mean, he put 819 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: up three hundred yards offense all on his own. But 820 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: I mean this is they still lost about thirty Wow? Yeah, 821 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 1: did you say thirty? They lost? They lost thirty four 822 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,880 Speaker 1: to six. But no, I mean this is a bad 823 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: This is a bad pass defense all the way around. 824 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 1: Like yeah, I mean Christian McCaffrey caught six balls for 825 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,359 Speaker 1: fifty yards. Um, So that's a typical day for him. 826 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 1: Nothing crazy, I mean, but it's first of all, it's 827 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,919 Speaker 1: a nice day, and it's something that we haven't seen 828 00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 1: the Cowboys consistently do with Zeke ever, I've given up 829 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: last week though, didn't he have like five catches? I 830 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:04,839 Speaker 1: want to say, was it four or five? Oh? No, 831 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 1: he's catching the ball. He's just not going anywhere. They did. 832 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: I mean he did. Yeah, he had a nice screen, 833 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 1: and then usually when he does have a nice day, 834 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: it's because a screen pops, you know, the Detroit pass 835 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 1: being the big exception. But it's the only time they've 836 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 1: ever done that, and they haven't gone back to it. 837 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 1: I would recommend they try to take advantage of it. 838 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 1: I mean, again, Steve said it. I mean I was 839 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 1: trying to be nice to my LSU guy, but I 840 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 1: mean Jala Mills is having a bad season. Darby's pretty good, 841 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:33,279 Speaker 1: but he can't do it all himself. Jenkins is not 842 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 1: a cover guy. Mcloud's hurt. Even Sidney Jones is their 843 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 1: nickel back and he's hurt right now too. Like they 844 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: are not good. So yeah, Zeke going against these linebackers 845 00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:48,320 Speaker 1: and safeties, I think is a nice matchup. Again, short routes, 846 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 1: maybe throwing some bubble screens, some slants like you can 847 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 1: make this thing easy for Dak, and I think he 848 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 1: can still have a nice day. I just, you know, 849 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,799 Speaker 1: it was funny listening to you know, he Steve inspired me. 850 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: Like I was like, yeah, maybe maybe the Cowboys can't 851 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: get their passing attack going because I've just seen this 852 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 1: song and dance too many times in a row to 853 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:11,839 Speaker 1: like really believe that they can. But if you look 854 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 1: at it objectively, it is a really favorable matchup. Do 855 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,360 Speaker 1: you think this is among the worst past defenses they 856 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: faced this year? Off the top of my head, yeah, 857 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:25,720 Speaker 1: I mean, because they've played more good defenses than bad, 858 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,840 Speaker 1: although I will say the Texans statistically horrid against the 859 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,240 Speaker 1: pass and it didn't seem to matter, which yeah, that's 860 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: I appreciate Nick for asking that question because I'm just like, yeah, okay, 861 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,919 Speaker 1: their secondaries bad. This passing attack is ranked thirty first 862 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 1: in the league. Like, so I gotta yes, it's an 863 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,360 Speaker 1: objective it's objectively a favorable matchup that hasn't mattered in 864 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:48,279 Speaker 1: the past. I'm playing the Eagles defense and fantasy, so 865 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: you are, yeah starting them, I mean just because of 866 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 1: the game and we've seen this type of game, see turnovers, 867 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 1: we see turnovers for touchdowns. I just don't. I mean, 868 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: I think that this is one where the Eagles have 869 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,320 Speaker 1: a better chance of getting on track than the Cowboys 870 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 1: on track their defense does use. Yeah, I mean this 871 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,840 Speaker 1: is what Dave said, weakness on weakness in that particular 872 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: passing game matchup. I mean I see them Cowboys struggling 873 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 1: more than I see the Eagles. Like man, they don't 874 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: stop anybody. I honestly think if they struggle, though, they 875 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: will struggle because they're trying to beat their head against 876 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: a brick wall. What I mean by that is they're 877 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 1: trying to just run up the middle, knowing that that's 878 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 1: the area where they're strong. I think if they are 879 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,239 Speaker 1: willing to do things that are not the things that 880 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 1: they've been doing, if they're willing to run back a 881 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: little bit, if they're willing to do some of that 882 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: misdirection like you were talking about, they're willing to utilize 883 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,720 Speaker 1: Cooper and their other receiving threats out on the outside 884 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 1: and really exploit the weaknesses of this defense. I think 885 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 1: they can have some success, but we haven't seen them 886 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 1: consistently go into games and use those things. We've seen 887 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: them more frequently say we're going to run the ball 888 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: even when running the ball isn't work, and they are 889 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 1: going to do I mean, that's that's their identity, even 890 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,400 Speaker 1: though it doesn't work, which so that's problematic. We know 891 00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 1: they're going to try to run the ball. It's just 892 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 1: how they do and they have to. I'm not saying 893 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 1: get away from the run. That's what you do. You 894 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: still got to do it. But I think there are 895 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 1: other ways that they can get these other facets of 896 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: their offense going, and that will only help you be 897 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: able to run the ball when you want to run 898 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: the ball. All Right, we'll appreciate you guys joining us 899 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 1: back tomorrow.
