I've got a stat cooking, stat cooking, Yeah, 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:13.400 trying to find my own my own status. Blombayic, a 0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:15.000 little crim bulet you know. 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:20.560 The stove, cafeteria free. 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:21.600 Everybody doing all right. 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:23.239 Today's wonderful, man. 0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:25.400 I feel like today it's good to see you. It's 0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:27.640 good to see you, and it's good to be It 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:31.000 feels like it's been a turn of the page. There 0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:33.840 was frustration earlier in the week. There was a little 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:36.720 bit of animosity at times, just with this football team 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:38.000 and the fan base. 0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:40.480 It's time to get down to business. Yeah, it's time 0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:43.920 to like put your best foot forward. You know what's 0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:46.680 going on you know how you're dealing with injuries here. 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:48.680 You know that Ceedee Lamb is not playing, you know 0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:51.919 the Todd Booker is not playing, So you have to 0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:54.399 put your best foot forward. And I think at least 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:56.280 as far as press conference is going, we'll hear from 0:02:56.320 --> 0:03:00.200 coordinators today. But you get a sense that everyone is 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:01.839 it's time to get to work. 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:07.400 And yes, yeah, I think paybag. Of course, the primetime 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:10.519 window plays a factor into it all, and the opponent 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:16.560 plays a factor into trauma plays into it. That's exactly right. 0:03:16.639 --> 0:03:17.600 It's a popcorn ready. 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:20.280 Yeah, I'm excited about this weekend. It's gonna be an 0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:23.400 incredible atmosphere. I know Cowboys fans are ready to welcome 0:03:23.400 --> 0:03:28.079 in Micah Parsons with certain arms. I'm not exactly sure 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:29.280 what exactly it's gonna. 0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:30.880 Look Likelion, I think so too. 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.280 I think there are going to be booze and I 0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:35.800 think there are going to be cheers at the same time. 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:37.560 It's gonna be a little bit of all. I'm thinking 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:39.480 it goes fifty to fifty either way. 0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:40.960 How do you guys feel about the tribute video. 0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:44.800 I don't understand why everybody is losing their mind over the. 0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:48.600 That there's a lack thereof Yeah, no tribute video not happening. 0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:50.800 I'm alright with that, did you I'm completely fine with it. 0:03:50.880 --> 0:03:52.400 What I would like to see is a player that 0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:53.680 played out as rookie cunts. 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:55.800 Michael laying on the sidelines as like on the big screen. 0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:56.320 You know what I mean? 0:03:57.160 --> 0:04:02.960 You know, just that's going to be so much use 0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:06.400 it against him. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's going to be 0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:08.520 on freaking he was going, I don't want to kill 0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:11.720 him with find a way to you know, get himself, 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:14.520 you know, ready for this game, no matter what's going 0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:18.320 to be too amped. And that might work against some Yeah, 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:19.080 that might work. 0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:23.320 I don't know. Luca cried on the bench prior to 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:26.520 taking the floor at the American Airline Center for the 0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:28.560 first time as a Laker, and he put up fifty 0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:29.240 nine points. 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:33.120 We also didn't, didn't we agree to differentuations are different, 0:04:34.000 --> 0:04:35.359 they are later, but you can't. 0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:38.800 Lucas, No, no, no, no, But I'm talking about Yeah, the 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:41.520 situations are completely different from how we got there. But 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:45.360 I'm talking about emotions of returning home that's similar. 0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:48.800 He scored that much. Luca put up fifty. 0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:50.680 Nine points or forty five or one of the one 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:51.000 of the two. 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.360 His vengeance was different though to me anyway. 0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:56.080 Probably he had a little. 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:59.719 Bit more and listeners cooking, they're saying no video. 0:04:59.800 --> 0:05:01.160 No, I don't know. 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:03.400 I don't like how how things went. I don't like 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:06.200 how things degraded. I don't on either side. I just 0:05:06.200 --> 0:05:07.839 want to be clear. I don't like how it was 0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:09.720 handled in the front office. I don't like how Micah's 0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:13.080 side handled it as far as like the public trade requests, 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.520 and I don't want to play for the Cowboys anymore. 0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:18.320 Like I'm like, mmmm, really that's how you feel. 0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:21.279 Just for those that are wondering. Forty five points, eight rebound, 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.239 six assists, four steals in his return against the Dallas Matterick. 0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:26.839 Yeah, he also wasn't shipped out of town at eleven fourbounds. 0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:28.440 Michael parsons that. 0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:32.559 He also didn't uh and Luca also got his team 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:35.479 to the conference finals and then the def So you see, 0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:37.920 you see what I'm saying. So if you're talking tributes 0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.760 that are deserved, these are the type of players that 0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:45.200 deserve tributes, not players. No knocking Micah, but four years, 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:52.040 no playoff success, one game, one game fair, I need 0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:54.400 you if if you are pro tribute for Micah. I 0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:56.160 just need you to justify the watch that just tell 0:05:56.200 --> 0:05:58.719 me why, and it has to be a like a 0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:02.839 concrete conc crea one or two reasons other than you 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:07.520 love Michah. Loving a guy is perfectly fine. Wrong with that, 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:15.400 nothing wrong with that. However, I love you that before 0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:19.480 seasons is not It does not a tribute. Make four 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:21.480 seasons to not a tribute, make you know what I mean? 0:06:21.560 --> 0:06:23.840 So I agreed with the Zeke tribute. Look at what 0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:26.240 Zeke was able to do as far as record setting 0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:27.839 over the course of his and then he had two 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:31.080 stints came back and it's like, okay, cool, right, you're 0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:36.320 not Zeke, You're not Emit, you're not Luca And again 0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:38.400 no knock to michaeh. I just I don't see the 0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:40.600 justification for a tribute, So why people are making old 0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:45.960 They're not gonna do a tribute, so who cares? I 0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:49.039 would I would be more understanding of if this game 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:52.039 was in Green Bay and the Packers chose not to 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.360 do a tribute for Kenny Clark that I would understand. 0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:58.479 That's nine seasons through Pro Bowls, with some postseason success 0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:00.599 and with Aaron Rodgers and Jordan of I mean, like 0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:03.440 I would understand if that was a note, I'd be like, oh, 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:04.400 that's that's shape. 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:06.559 Just to play devil's advocate, even though I do agree 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:10.080 with you, micaeh made more Pro Bowls with Dallas than 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:10.960 Kenny Clark. 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:15.040 Did with but not an impactful you know what I mean? 0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:18.239 Like, would you be fine with a photo thank you, Michael? 0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:20.720 Like a folk Oh yeah, like a graphic graphic? 0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:23.320 Sure, yeah, I'd be cool with that, welcome back. 0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:25.800 Yeah, yeah, I'm fine with it because that at least 0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:26.720 knowledge is it. 0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:29.080 I'm found with that Michael put a highlight package. 0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:30.920 Yeah, I don't know about like a montage with. 0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:32.120 A highlight video. 0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:36.320 Couches back there cooking up a whole what I. 0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:38.320 Am good with splitting the difference. I could see it, 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:40.520 thank you, graphic, and then let's play football. 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:43.320 I'm interested in what everybody because I know it's a 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:47.080 split thought process over the Micah situation in general. But 0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:50.320 would you or would you not have a tribute? Put 0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:51.800 it in the comments right now. 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:53.800 And be clear, is it a video or is it 0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:54.240 a graphic? 0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:54.600 Yeah? 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.240 Two very different things. And at the graphic it's Michael 0:07:58.280 --> 0:07:58.960 Alans sideline. 0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:02.080 We are such creative that we're debating a graphic person. 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:04.400 It's different. 0:08:04.680 --> 0:08:05.240 It is different. 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:07.320 All right, News and notes, Pat, what's going on with 0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:09.200 this team? And what does the injury report look like? 0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:12.720 All right? Wednesday's injury report, we already know the expected 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:17.000 being Tyler Booker and Ceedee Lamb. Neither of them participated 0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:20.920 nor shall they participate for the foreseeable future. Tyler Booker 0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:23.280 will eventually be moved to IL right, we feel at 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:25.040 some point this week we'll see how they choose to 0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:28.960 handle that. Good news to Ron Bland continues to trend 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.960 toward taking the field back on practice yes back in 0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:34.920 practice yesterday, and in a limited capacity, so he is 0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:37.760 ramping up. All signs point to him having a green 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:40.040 light as long as there are no setbacks this week. 0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:42.760 The front office has said it, Shottenheimer has said it 0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:45.559 looks like he will be a go. Traquayes Bridges, he 0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:48.800 did pop up on the injury report with a knee issue, 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:52.360 but limited. He did do some work yesterday, so it's 0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:57.720 not of major concern. But what's not good is Trevon Diggs, 0:08:57.800 --> 0:09:02.080 with his knee issue, did not participate in Wednesday's practice, 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:05.800 so here we are again with the possibility of getting 0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:09.960 Bland back and then Diggs being sidelined, and that just 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:13.200 seems to be a theme that the universe conspires against 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.440 those two playing on the field at the same time 0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:19.880 for any extended period of time. Flippy really quickly to 0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:22.600 the Green Bay Packers. They have a few did not 0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:25.360 participate players that did not participate, I should say it 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:29.800 that way. The most glaring is Zach is It torn 0:09:29.920 --> 0:09:33.520 Tom their offensive line in their tackle starting tackle right 0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:36.640 oblique injury. He did not participate. I saw some reports 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:39.240 yesterday that says he's going to miss this game. So 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:42.320 in the event, which is going to be a perfect 0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:44.960 segue too, because I looked at the rundown, in the 0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:48.120 event that he cannot play, well, even if he does play, 0:09:48.200 --> 0:09:50.720 there's no reason to not have Jadavion Clowney on the field. 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:54.600 And in the event there starting tackle can't play, all 0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:56.600 the more reason to have Javion Clowney on the field. 0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:59.440 And he had that oblique the week before last whenever 0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:03.760 they're going to Cleveland and Miles Garrett did not help 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:08.080 matters there, so may have reaggravated that or just made 0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:08.520 it worse. 0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:12.840 Probably there based on and I know you guys want 0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:15.360 to see Jadavian Clowney play, but just based on the 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:19.079 conversations that we had yesterday in the locker room, what's 0:10:19.080 --> 0:10:21.720 your confidence level he does play going into week. 0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:23.280 He's confused why he didn't play last. 0:10:24.320 --> 0:10:27.240 Speaking of split decisions, it's a split decision right now. 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.880 Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones have both got on one 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:32.440 oh five three of the Fan and said they expect 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:36.680 they expect. Stephen Jones said yes. Jerry Jones said yes 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:41.880 to the question. Yes. Shoddy is noncommittal, which I think 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:43.760 is more so games mach. He doesn't want to reveal 0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:44.000 his game. 0:10:44.080 --> 0:10:45.000 He's hold his cards closed. 0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:47.800 My money on the table, not allowed to bid. Okay, 0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:53.439 Roger back off Pracrick. We were speaking, you know terms. Yeah, 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.199 if I were to put money on the table, I 0:10:57.240 --> 0:11:00.240 would say that Javion Clowney plays this game, because is 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:03.120 what do you have to lose by playing him? Now 0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:05.160 that he's been here a couple of weeks to get prepared. 0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:07.600 You don't have a pass rush that's get home consistently. 0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.320 You're staring at one in three starts of the season. 0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:13.880 In the face. You can't justify to me why he's 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:15.400 not on the field. If he's not on the field, 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:17.880 get him on the field. I think he gets on 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:18.760 the field and also. 0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:19.319 There let him cook. 0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:24.040 You can feel that frustration bubbling beneath his surface, because, 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:26.079 like you said, he wanted to play last week, he 0:11:26.200 --> 0:11:29.320 was disappointed that he didn't. Eh, I don't know if 0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:32.199 you want to pull that twice. Yeah, oh, Jim, I 0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:34.319 don't know, Jim, old Jim, get him out there, Get 0:11:34.400 --> 0:11:34.840 him out there. 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:36.840 How much of an impact do you feel like Clowney 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:39.760 could make Isaiah when he gets back into the fold. 0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:41.400 I know we've talked about it a little bit throughout 0:11:41.440 --> 0:11:45.600 the week, but even just hearing the pause to put 0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:48.920 him in the game last week, does that mean we're 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:50.400 still going to see him on a pitch count. 0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:51.160 I don't know. 0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:53.439 I don't We haven't seen this Doe since last year, 0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:56.640 so I have no idea what his conditioning level was, Like, 0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:58.280 I don't know how he's coming off the ball. We 0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:01.880 literally are going into this game line with expectations from 0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:03.520 seven months ago. 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:06.040 Yeah, so I mean none of us know, right, It's 0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:07.000 all hope and a lot of. 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:09.760 The circulation, at least on social and you know who 0:12:09.840 --> 0:12:11.360 knows what his conditioning is at. But a lot of 0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:13.360 people are saying he's just not as big as he 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:13.760 used to be. 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:14.400 He's thin. 0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:16.719 It looks really thin. I mean even Jesse Holly was saying, 0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:17.680 he looks like a wide receiver. 0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:18.680 I cuck it up. 0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:21.679 I can tell you why. It's the conversation that he 0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:24.000 and I had right after he signed his contract. He said, 0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:26.280 I mentioned it on the show that the Panthers had 0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:28.120 him doing more coverage than he had ever done in 0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:31.040 his career, so he dropped ten to twelve pounds in 0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:34.160 order to be able to cover better. Now he's look 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.240 he's trying to work toward getting that ten to twelve 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:39.439 pounds of muscle back. So as you see him right now, 0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:42.880 that's the answer for why he looks slimmer. But if 0:12:42.960 --> 0:12:45.880 his plan, if everything goes according to plan with the 0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:48.600 dietitians and the training staff, he should look a bit 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:52.520 heavier three weeks from now, right. So, yeah, but that 0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:54.480 explains why he looks a little bit more slender. 0:12:54.640 --> 0:12:57.480 My thing is regardless of his condition. Right now, I 0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:00.720 want to see someone else besides don I just need 0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:02.440 to see something different, something else. 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:05.880 Yeah, Jam Houston and Via and coloney. 0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:08.000 What are you looking at here, Isaiah? 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:09.720 I'm just Jameson. 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:11.800 You're being coy Isaiah a day. 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:12.400 Why are you? 0:13:14.840 --> 0:13:19.520 I'm blocked and loaded, locked and loaded. We just don't 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:21.160 I mean, we don't know what Clowney can bring. We 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:23.520 will find out. We're trying to find out. Yeah, we'll 0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:26.120 find out. We literally don't know, right, It's it's literally 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:28.920 a crapshoot right now, we're going off of history. That's 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:30.800 literally we don't have preseason, we don't have training camp, 0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:32.280 we don't have OTA, we don't have anything to go 0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:34.480 off of Panthers from last year. 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:36.800 Yeah, that's it, I mean, which was good. If he 0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:38.959 gives you five or six as over the rest of 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:41.560 the season, it's a successful sign absolutely. 0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:43.760 I mean, if we get the Clowney that we've seen 0:13:43.800 --> 0:13:45.400 the last three years, then we're all gonna be sitting 0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:47.839 here happy as all get out, happy as claims. But 0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.040 we don't know what we're getting, so we can go 0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:53.280 off of expectations. But that's literally all we have to 0:13:53.360 --> 0:13:53.719 go off of. 0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:57.120 It's one of those it's better than what we've got 0:13:57.240 --> 0:13:58.560 right now scenarios. 0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:01.640 Right at least, you think if we get what we've 0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:02.520 seen on film. 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:06.480 We will be happy because what we've seen on film 0:14:06.559 --> 0:14:10.160 is aggressive defensive men that is that is long and lanky, 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:13.280 that sets the edges, that really pushes the defense. The 0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:15.880 offensive lineman back. When he wants to get to the quarterback, 0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:18.319 he's relentless in his pursuit to get him. He is 0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:22.000 a guy that demands the respect of the offensive line. 0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:24.800 He's the guy who demands the respect of the offensive coordinator. 0:14:25.040 --> 0:14:27.360 You better put some respect on his name, otherwise he'll 0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:29.160 make you pay if you put one guy on him. 0:14:29.400 --> 0:14:31.400 And once he if he has his feet underneath him, 0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:33.680 he is what he was, He's gonna make you pay. 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:35.720 So he's somebody that you have to adjust your pass 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:37.560 protection to. He's somebody that the quarterback has to be 0:14:37.640 --> 0:14:40.480 aware of. So yeah, if we're getting the old version 0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:42.320 of him from the last time he touched the field, 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:43.800 then yeah, you'll be happy. 0:14:43.920 --> 0:14:46.080 But we truly don't know. I don't think he knows 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:47.280 what he's able to do right now. 0:14:47.360 --> 0:14:49.360 I think you would be content. You would be satisfied 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.120 with the production that he gave you last year. If 0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:52.920 it is like just jumping back to what he did 0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:54.880 last year, you would be fine with that, but I 0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:56.280 don't think it's going to get you over the hump 0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:59.240 of like, oh, now you have past past rushing defense. 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:02.120 He gets you, it will be serviceable and. 0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:03.680 Gets you a Sunday. That's cool. 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.200 But the thing is, like he has he saved for 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:07.440 bold predictions. 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:10.840 Bro, he hasn't had a He hasn't had a full 0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:14.280 speed reps as his last NFL game. Yeah, even the 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:16.680 practice that he's had here the last howe many days, 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.000 it's not a full speed rep because he can't go 0:15:19.280 --> 0:15:20.520 relentlessly to the quarterback. 0:15:20.840 --> 0:15:23.400 So he legit has not had a full speed rep. 0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:25.080 So he doesn't know what he can do right now. 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:28.760 It's all up in the air, all of it. You 0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:32.640 know what else is up in the air football? Because 0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:33.760 it's QB Vision time. 0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:41.080 A Micah is making his return, his homecoming of sorts, 0:15:41.360 --> 0:15:45.800 Micah Parsons to a teen parties stadium.

I make I'm excited, excited. I am excited. Man. 0:20:05.680 --> 0:20:07.880 Let's talk about it. Okay, let's call the spade a spade. 0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:10.080 Okay, We're playing against the number one defense in terms 0:20:10.119 --> 0:20:12.280 of points per game allowed, number one defense in terms 0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:14.560 of yards per play allowed, number one defense in terms 0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:17.720 of passing yards per play allowed, and the third best 0:20:18.320 --> 0:20:20.080 ranked rushing defense in the league. 0:20:20.359 --> 0:20:21.080 Those are the facts. 0:20:21.200 --> 0:20:25.760 Yes, you're playing against a very aggressive defensive team. Their 0:20:25.880 --> 0:20:29.600 defensive backs will come hit you. Their defensive line wants 0:20:29.640 --> 0:20:32.040 to get after you. Their linebackers want to get to 0:20:32.160 --> 0:20:37.600 the quarterback. Okay, the guys are very aggressive. So that's 0:20:37.720 --> 0:20:38.560 enough gas. 0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:41.440 Okay, that's enough gasoline on there on their little flyer 0:20:41.520 --> 0:20:43.359 that they have there. Let's let's talk. 0:20:43.200 --> 0:20:50.720 About where they're weak, where they're curious. They're so supposedly 0:20:50.800 --> 0:20:54.040 the third best rushing defense in the league. I don't 0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:57.320 believe it, exactly. I'm not a believer. I am not 0:20:57.359 --> 0:20:57.680 a believer. 0:20:57.760 --> 0:21:00.399 These guys are only allowing sixty four yards per game. Believer. 0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:03.800 You know why because their interior d line to me 0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:07.119 is they're just not oppressive. They are not impressive. They 0:21:07.200 --> 0:21:09.280 miss somebody named k C. You know, I'm not talking 0:21:09.320 --> 0:21:10.320 about Fried Chicken. 0:21:10.320 --> 0:21:11.040 In Kansas City. 0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:15.200 Kenny Clark Clark. 0:21:15.960 --> 0:21:18.320 Okay, they thought they can get by without Kenny Clark. 0:21:18.359 --> 0:21:21.160 They thought they we don't need them. We got Mike 0:21:21.359 --> 0:21:24.240 coming in. They miss him. The reason why they miss 0:21:24.320 --> 0:21:26.280 him is because Kenny Clark not only can two gap 0:21:26.359 --> 0:21:28.399 and hold the ford at the point, but Kenny Clark 0:21:28.440 --> 0:21:31.159 also wants to get vertical and get between your offensive 0:21:31.160 --> 0:21:33.720 linement and get on the other side of your offensive line. 0:21:33.920 --> 0:21:36.720 Their interior defensive linement that they currently have, do not 0:21:36.920 --> 0:21:40.200 do that. They are true stand there, hold the ford 0:21:40.359 --> 0:21:42.960 to two point two gap guys that just want to 0:21:43.040 --> 0:21:44.080 push and bull rush. 0:21:44.200 --> 0:21:45.119 That's what they want to do. 0:21:46.040 --> 0:21:47.640 But they're not getting any actual push. 0:21:47.880 --> 0:21:50.359 They're not they I mean sometimes they do, sometimes they do, 0:21:50.440 --> 0:21:52.480 but they're more vertical than they are anything. Right, So 0:21:52.640 --> 0:21:57.400 if you had to say, my center in Cooper BB 0:21:57.600 --> 0:22:00.440 is out and my right guard is down to my 0:22:00.560 --> 0:22:03.399 third guy who is now TJ. Bass, and I'm missing 0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:07.240 my two starters there. The one thing I would want 0:22:07.320 --> 0:22:10.200 the opposition to do with their interior D lineman is 0:22:10.240 --> 0:22:14.439 what against brock Hoffman and TJ. Bass be borus guys, please, 0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:17.920 That's that's the one area I actually feel comfortable and 0:22:18.000 --> 0:22:19.800 confident with those those two gentlemen. 0:22:20.000 --> 0:22:20.399 So do it. 0:22:20.960 --> 0:22:22.639 That's all they can do. That's what their interior D 0:22:22.720 --> 0:22:25.440 lineman can do. So this sixty four yards per game, eh, 0:22:26.040 --> 0:22:28.480 let's test that. Let's test that theory. I believe that 0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:30.520 the Dallas Cowboys can run for one twenty five on 0:22:30.600 --> 0:22:33.280 these guys. Wow, I truly do, to quote. 0:22:33.080 --> 0:22:36.040 The great King Leonidis, will put their names to the test. 0:22:36.080 --> 0:22:39.200 Yeah, I truly do. I truly do so I would 0:22:39.280 --> 0:22:40.960 like to see that be tested. Now, what you don't 0:22:41.000 --> 0:22:43.000 want to do. What you don't want to do is 0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:45.680 you don't want to find yourself in passing situations on 0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:47.600 a consistent basis. You don't want to find yourself in 0:22:47.720 --> 0:22:49.440 second and long third and lungs. 0:22:49.160 --> 0:22:49.800 Behind the chain. 0:22:49.880 --> 0:22:52.560 You don't want to do that because the best portion 0:22:52.720 --> 0:22:55.240 of their defense is their front seven and their ability 0:22:55.320 --> 0:22:56.200 to get to the quarterback. 0:22:56.280 --> 0:22:57.200 That's right, they can do that. 0:22:57.359 --> 0:22:59.320 And how do they do that? Well, they just have 0:22:59.480 --> 0:23:01.639 better guys, didn't you. Let's just call a spade a spade. 0:23:01.720 --> 0:23:03.920 So you don't want to be in that position. Who 0:23:04.040 --> 0:23:06.480 do they have on that defensive front? Well, guys that 0:23:06.560 --> 0:23:08.560 you need to be concerned about. Well, there's number one. 0:23:08.840 --> 0:23:11.359 You obviously know about him, Michael Parsons, who has not 0:23:11.480 --> 0:23:13.359 been on every down guy for them, but he's been 0:23:13.359 --> 0:23:15.960 a rotation guy. Why is he a rotation guy? Because 0:23:16.000 --> 0:23:17.600 they have a number of guys that can play that 0:23:17.680 --> 0:23:22.120 position along with him? Is going to be let's talk 0:23:22.160 --> 0:23:22.560 about him. 0:23:22.680 --> 0:23:25.440 Maybe Rashan Gary number fifty two for those that don't know, 0:23:26.080 --> 0:23:26.600 he's kind of good. 0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:28.240 He's kind of good. He likes to line up in 0:23:28.359 --> 0:23:31.200 not only a seven tech, a nine tech. He lines 0:23:31.280 --> 0:23:34.240 up in like a fifteen tech. Sometimes he's way out there. Okay, 0:23:34.359 --> 0:23:37.160 so he's so far out there that sometimes he will 0:23:37.200 --> 0:23:40.000 come get come off the chip from your tight end 0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:42.040 who is detached from the offensive line, and still work 0:23:42.119 --> 0:23:43.760 his way all the way back to your tackle, who 0:23:43.840 --> 0:23:46.120 is then waiting on him, and it is probably giving 0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:48.560 too much. But if he's able to get to you, 0:23:48.720 --> 0:23:51.040 then you are spending way too much time in the 0:23:51.119 --> 0:23:54.280 pocket because that's how far away he's coming. The one 0:23:54.359 --> 0:23:57.720 thing that their defensive line does very well that bothers 0:23:57.800 --> 0:24:01.159 me and concerns me about this game is they stunt 0:24:01.600 --> 0:24:05.560 very well. They move a lot in terms of responsibilities. 0:24:05.640 --> 0:24:07.680 They will take their tackle and run across the face 0:24:07.720 --> 0:24:10.960 of your center and your guard and challenge your offensive 0:24:11.000 --> 0:24:14.040 line's ability to communicate properly in terms of who's passing 0:24:14.119 --> 0:24:17.560 who off. If you can't pass off guys from defense 0:24:17.560 --> 0:24:19.720 alignment to the next defense linesman and keep your eyes 0:24:19.840 --> 0:24:22.119 on your target and your responsibility, you're screwed. 0:24:22.280 --> 0:24:24.560 It goes back to that te t list that you 0:24:24.600 --> 0:24:28.320 were talking about going into science correct and what happened 0:24:28.320 --> 0:24:31.040 in the Giants game and where did they really challenge them. Now, 0:24:31.480 --> 0:24:32.960 Dallas was able to sort through it and they were 0:24:33.000 --> 0:24:34.840 able to put up points, So that's a good sign 0:24:35.000 --> 0:24:36.639 for sure. But there were a couple of times. I 0:24:36.720 --> 0:24:39.679 know Dak got sacked twice on an ET stunt at 0:24:39.720 --> 0:24:40.440 some point in time. 0:24:40.520 --> 0:24:42.560 The reason why this concerns me is because you are 0:24:42.680 --> 0:24:46.160 using your backups. Yeah, you're using You're using TJ. Bass, 0:24:46.280 --> 0:24:49.560 You're using brock Hoffman. Both of those guys are maulers, right. 0:24:49.640 --> 0:24:51.280 They want to get their hands on you. They want 0:24:51.320 --> 0:24:54.639 to exert their physicality on you. They're concern you. They 0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:55.800 want to get in a fight with you. So if 0:24:55.840 --> 0:24:58.280 you're so concerned with getting in a fight and locking 0:24:58.320 --> 0:25:00.880 in with these interior defense alignment that want to bull rush, 0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:03.680 they're probably not coming off of those blocks and getting 0:25:03.720 --> 0:25:05.960 to the guy that's scraping over the top, going to 0:25:06.000 --> 0:25:08.920 get dack. That's my concern. So even though they don't 0:25:08.920 --> 0:25:10.880 bring a ton of pressure. Okay, I haven't even looked 0:25:10.880 --> 0:25:13.760 at the analytics. I've watched the film. Okay, I stop trusting, 0:25:14.400 --> 0:25:16.800 stop trusting the stat. 0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:18.960 Yeah you've got a bit of beefoot, Yeah, I gotta 0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:20.200 be currently. 0:25:20.280 --> 0:25:23.200 But they will challenge, they'll bring five sometimes sometimes they'll 0:25:23.240 --> 0:25:26.000 bring six, but they don't like to expose their secondary 0:25:27.080 --> 0:25:31.120 at all. Their secondary. This is a single high defense. 0:25:31.960 --> 0:25:34.960 These guys, Listen, I went back to the Washington game. 0:25:35.760 --> 0:25:39.400 These guys are single high. However, the difference between their 0:25:39.440 --> 0:25:41.800 single high and what we've seen from our defense and 0:25:41.880 --> 0:25:45.440 single high is their defensive backs don't allow guys to 0:25:45.560 --> 0:25:49.560 run by them without getting contact. Every person that runs 0:25:49.840 --> 0:25:52.600 past the second level, Okay, that's your linebacker level, and 0:25:52.720 --> 0:25:55.360 if your defensive backs are at that level, they're walk 0:25:55.400 --> 0:25:58.480 down safety. Whoever it might be, nickelback. Somebody's putting hands 0:25:58.520 --> 0:26:01.080 on you. They're gonna bless you. They're gonna bless you 0:26:01.160 --> 0:26:02.760 are They're gonna touch you shoulder, they're gonna push you, 0:26:02.840 --> 0:26:05.479 They're gonna do something. They are trying to get contact 0:26:05.520 --> 0:26:07.840 on you to knock you off of your timing and 0:26:07.960 --> 0:26:10.920 knock you off of your path. Okay, your your alignment, 0:26:11.000 --> 0:26:13.000 you're seeing wherever you might be. They don't want to 0:26:13.000 --> 0:26:15.800 allow you just run free, so you expect contact. So 0:26:15.880 --> 0:26:18.520 when you start thinking about it from that context, your 0:26:18.600 --> 0:26:22.240 receivers have to play this game physical. That's why I'm 0:26:22.240 --> 0:26:25.320 concerned about this. From what I've seen from our receivers 0:26:25.359 --> 0:26:29.880 to date, we haven't put it on tape. Okay, from 0:26:29.920 --> 0:26:32.320 what I've seen, George Pickens doesn't want that contact. From 0:26:32.359 --> 0:26:36.600 what I've seen, Tolbert, Tolbert can get easily knocked around. 0:26:37.160 --> 0:26:41.160 On what this style of defense and who do I say? 0:26:41.840 --> 0:26:44.240 I said, I'm in turping Turpin can get easily knocked around. 0:26:44.520 --> 0:26:46.879 Tolbert is a stature that makes sense, yes Tobert. To me, 0:26:47.880 --> 0:26:52.200 it's probably your best option from what I'm seeing on tape. 0:26:53.160 --> 0:26:54.639 From what I'm seeing on tape now, that could be 0:26:54.720 --> 0:26:56.760 completely different. But I'm talking about body type. I'm talking 0:26:56.760 --> 0:26:59.600 about willingness, ability to fight off defensive backs and catch 0:26:59.640 --> 0:27:02.080 you know, the ball with somebody sitting on their backs. 0:27:02.119 --> 0:27:04.040 Nafety is sure would be good to have me on 0:27:04.119 --> 0:27:05.520 the field. Yeah, I hear that. 0:27:06.080 --> 0:27:08.840 I hear that absolutely, but it's not available for at 0:27:08.920 --> 0:27:09.760 least another week. 0:27:09.920 --> 0:27:12.040 Last last thing i'll mention here, Okay, guys, I'll work 0:27:12.080 --> 0:27:13.680 from the D line to the last second level to 0:27:13.720 --> 0:27:15.400 now the third level Cover three team. 0:27:15.480 --> 0:27:17.040 These guys want to keep everything in front of them. 0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:17.560 Cover three. 0:27:17.560 --> 0:27:19.280 They'll play man to man as well. They don't mind 0:27:19.359 --> 0:27:21.560 matching up man to man because they want to get physical, 0:27:21.640 --> 0:27:24.160 like you know, so as you you're supposed to only 0:27:24.240 --> 0:27:26.720 contacting five yards. As soon as you get to five yards, 0:27:26.760 --> 0:27:29.400 it seemingly that's when their hands become veilcrow. They want 0:27:29.440 --> 0:27:30.560 to get on your hip, they want to get on 0:27:30.640 --> 0:27:34.080 your shoulder, and they're sticky. They want to play everything 0:27:34.160 --> 0:27:36.919 from back down. They're not letting anything get behind them. 0:27:36.960 --> 0:27:39.560 The safety when you watch their safety is unconcerned about 0:27:39.560 --> 0:27:41.480 what's going on in the backfield. These guys are sitting 0:27:41.520 --> 0:27:43.680 back twenty five yards deep and they're keeping everything in 0:27:43.720 --> 0:27:45.680 front of them. Hardly ever, whill you see these guys 0:27:45.720 --> 0:27:49.040 turning and running backwards because their job is to keep 0:27:49.040 --> 0:27:50.639 everything in front as a safety. 0:27:50.720 --> 0:27:52.800 Three wink wink, Yes, Oh my gosh. 0:27:53.000 --> 0:27:58.880 Yes, their second level sinks. Okay, very well, so you're 0:27:58.880 --> 0:28:00.639 got to be very patient off In. You're gonna have 0:28:00.640 --> 0:28:02.639 to be okay with Dinkin and Duncan. 0:28:02.840 --> 0:28:03.040 Yep. 0:28:03.240 --> 0:28:07.200 The reason why they sink is because as the second 0:28:07.280 --> 0:28:09.640 left they're going to cover three right, these guys will 0:28:09.880 --> 0:28:12.080 drift back. So now your linebackers instead of them being 0:28:12.119 --> 0:28:14.080 at this seven to eight yard mark, these guys are 0:28:14.080 --> 0:28:16.600 really at the ten to twelve yard mark. Safeties and 0:28:16.680 --> 0:28:19.360 corners are even further back than that, so you're left 0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:22.800 with the option of what dumping it down right, And 0:28:22.880 --> 0:28:25.680 if you try to wait for your guys to get 0:28:25.800 --> 0:28:28.960 beyond that ten to twelve yard mark of the second level, 0:28:29.040 --> 0:28:31.520 not the third level, but of the second level, usually 0:28:31.600 --> 0:28:34.080 you run out of time because of what because of. 0:28:34.040 --> 0:28:37.920 The rushers incongruous to what you're saying, and it's You've 0:28:38.000 --> 0:28:41.440 laid it out perfectly. This defense is structurally sound, especially 0:28:41.480 --> 0:28:44.200 the secondaries, and I love that they're able to disguise 0:28:44.280 --> 0:28:47.200 their coverages and when they do sit in a basic look, 0:28:47.800 --> 0:28:49.640 the offense is confused. It's like, wait a second, They've 0:28:49.640 --> 0:28:53.160 been disguising this all game long, and then when they 0:28:53.360 --> 0:28:55.719 set you're like, all right, what are they gonna do now? 0:28:55.880 --> 0:28:56.920 And then they just maul you. 0:28:58.200 --> 0:29:00.520 The key to that, like you're saying, is run the ball, 0:29:00.720 --> 0:29:04.480 Run the MF ball all day long. Javonte Williams is 0:29:04.600 --> 0:29:07.719 going to be your X factor this week. We can 0:29:07.800 --> 0:29:11.920 say that in together in Unison, it'll be Jovontay Williams. 0:29:11.960 --> 0:29:14.080 You need to rely on him all gamealy. 0:29:14.360 --> 0:29:17.640 But my thing is Jake Ferguson is going to be 0:29:17.800 --> 0:29:20.560 another huge xpactor like you're saying Dnkin and dunkin. I 0:29:20.680 --> 0:29:25.480 am fine with those fifteen sixteen seventeen targets that get 0:29:25.560 --> 0:29:28.520 you forty or fifty yards. Those are basically run place. 0:29:28.960 --> 0:29:31.000 The more you're able to do that, the more often 0:29:31.040 --> 0:29:32.360 you're abel to do that. If you're doing that on 0:29:32.480 --> 0:29:35.920 first down and Javonte Williams on second down, I mean, 0:29:36.320 --> 0:29:38.680 the numbers are adding up, the math is mathing. You 0:29:38.760 --> 0:29:41.680 are able to get first downs and keep Green Bay's 0:29:41.720 --> 0:29:42.480 offense off the field. 0:29:42.520 --> 0:29:44.200 They're going to give you the middle of the field 0:29:44.720 --> 0:29:47.760 in between the hash marks, even an occasional seam from 0:29:47.800 --> 0:29:50.440 here from time to time, it's going to be there, 0:29:50.520 --> 0:29:52.960 which reminds me, of course, Jake Ferguson of what he 0:29:53.000 --> 0:29:56.880 did thirteen targets or thirteen receptions on sixteen targets last. 0:29:56.760 --> 0:29:59.520 Week for fifty yards, for fifty yards seventy. 0:29:59.400 --> 0:30:01.520 It's probably what we're gonna see again. Maybe they try 0:30:01.600 --> 0:30:03.480 and take one over the top and take the top 0:30:03.560 --> 0:30:06.520 off with Jake Ferguson like they've done in the past. Maybe, 0:30:06.640 --> 0:30:08.840 but it's not just him, it's guys like Schooonmaker and 0:30:08.880 --> 0:30:11.160 Brevin spam Ford. Because you don't want that wear and 0:30:11.280 --> 0:30:14.000 tear over and over and over again. But then we 0:30:14.120 --> 0:30:17.480 heard Brian Schottenheimer yesterday in his press conference. He said 0:30:18.880 --> 0:30:22.080 he was asked about Pickens and the different role that 0:30:22.280 --> 0:30:24.320 Pickens is going to have now that Cede Lamb's not 0:30:24.400 --> 0:30:28.120 in the offense. He said, I don't think the role 0:30:28.200 --> 0:30:31.440 for Pickens changes. I think the role for everybody else changes. 0:30:31.520 --> 0:30:34.880 He said, Guys like Ferguson and Turpin and Tolbert, that's 0:30:35.040 --> 0:30:37.000 the guys. Those are the guys that are going to 0:30:37.040 --> 0:30:39.880 need to step up and fill in from production standpoints. 0:30:40.440 --> 0:30:43.600 So with that being said, I'm thinking Ferguson over the middle. Like, 0:30:43.640 --> 0:30:46.240 if you're in a PPR fantasy league, I would probably 0:30:46.320 --> 0:30:48.440 start the dude because it's just going to be bang 0:30:48.560 --> 0:30:52.480 bang bang bang, and he already leads the NFL entit physicality. 0:30:52.480 --> 0:30:55.360 Granted, you don't have Jonathan Mingle, you do have Ryan Flinoy, right, 0:30:55.520 --> 0:30:58.200 so's he's right now. As far as the active ruster 0:30:58.320 --> 0:31:01.960 is concerned, he's arguably most physical. I wouldn't say toughest, 0:31:01.960 --> 0:31:03.720 because I give that to Terment because the size and 0:31:04.080 --> 0:31:07.120 ability to take those hits, But as far as physicality, 0:31:07.240 --> 0:31:10.400 I'd really ramp up Flinoyd there, and I would also 0:31:10.680 --> 0:31:13.600 not shy away from twelve personnel. We're talking about exposing 0:31:13.640 --> 0:31:15.440 the middle of the field. Let's get let's get Brevin 0:31:15.480 --> 0:31:17.480 span Ford and Jake focusing on the field at the 0:31:17.560 --> 0:31:20.160 same time with George picking that, you know what I mean, 0:31:20.200 --> 0:31:22.480 I think that's how you start to exploit that defense. 0:31:22.520 --> 0:31:25.520 I think I think span Ford has earned more rap. Yes, 0:31:26.560 --> 0:31:29.160 even the play that he had that got called back 0:31:29.200 --> 0:31:32.400 because of the game the end of the game, just 0:31:32.600 --> 0:31:35.960 that one play was like, oh wow, and then you 0:31:36.040 --> 0:31:38.520 remind me I'm not saying wow, there remind people how 0:31:38.560 --> 0:31:40.880 big he is six foot seven seven. 0:31:41.320 --> 0:31:44.120 Earlier, earlier in the game. I can't remember exactly what play, 0:31:44.240 --> 0:31:47.960 but he laid a block on somebody and then went 0:31:48.080 --> 0:31:51.240 looking hunting and laid another block. I put two guys 0:31:51.440 --> 0:31:52.640 on their back. I was just. 0:31:54.280 --> 0:31:57.160 I love the idea of twelve personnel. The reason why 0:31:57.240 --> 0:31:59.160 I love the idea of twelve personnel, I'm glad y'all 0:31:59.200 --> 0:32:02.960 brought that up. Because you want to impose your will. 0:32:03.880 --> 0:32:04.840 You want to impose your will. 0:32:04.920 --> 0:32:06.600 You know what to hold on to the ball. 0:32:06.640 --> 0:32:08.320 You know they want to get after the quarterback. Yea, 0:32:08.800 --> 0:32:11.640 like they're coming in here enraged like Micah, do what 0:32:11.800 --> 0:32:12.000 you do. 0:32:12.160 --> 0:32:12.760 That's what they want. 0:32:13.080 --> 0:32:16.239 Man, listen, go twelve personnel and move these guys off 0:32:16.240 --> 0:32:19.720 the ball. Have a fourteen fifteen play drive Like do 0:32:19.920 --> 0:32:22.800 that consistently and I think that you can. 0:32:22.920 --> 0:32:24.280 These guys are aggressive. Don't listen. 0:32:24.320 --> 0:32:26.320 This is gonna be a physical game. Yeah, get freaking 0:32:26.400 --> 0:32:29.240 buckle up for getting the ice bath before the game, 0:32:29.560 --> 0:32:32.360 red lighte therapy, all the stuff. Get your massages now, 0:32:32.440 --> 0:32:35.560 acupuncture because this is gonna be physical, especially at the 0:32:35.600 --> 0:32:37.760 line of scrimmage and really out there receivers. If you 0:32:37.760 --> 0:32:39.480 want to catch the ball, you're getting hit. Okay, you 0:32:39.520 --> 0:32:41.080 guys are talking about trying to get to the seams. 0:32:41.480 --> 0:32:43.760 I don't believe this is a scene game. I really 0:32:43.840 --> 0:32:46.600 don't because because they're so physical at the second level, 0:32:46.800 --> 0:32:49.560 then they do such a good job of squeezing their guys. 0:32:49.600 --> 0:32:51.160 If you try to get to the seams, you're that 0:32:51.280 --> 0:32:53.800 safety is right there. It's not like our safeties. Their 0:32:53.800 --> 0:32:55.880 safety is gonna be sitting right there in a position 0:32:55.960 --> 0:32:58.120 to knock your head off right, and their corner is 0:32:58.120 --> 0:32:59.560 gonna be in there too, because he's gonna be sitting 0:32:59.560 --> 0:33:03.360 in your hipcke. So I do believe that this shallows 0:33:03.960 --> 0:33:06.560 you know what I'm saying, drive route concepts, little short 0:33:06.600 --> 0:33:09.640 things like that along with the consistent running game. If 0:33:09.640 --> 0:33:11.640 you're getting four yards of pop at the running game 0:33:11.680 --> 0:33:13.760 and you're getting five yard little chunks here and there 0:33:13.800 --> 0:33:16.080 with what your tight end or shallow rouse with turp 0:33:16.160 --> 0:33:19.520 or whoever, that's what I'm talking about, sustainable drive. You 0:33:19.640 --> 0:33:22.000 had to wear these guys down because now you're taking 0:33:22.040 --> 0:33:24.280 their intensity and you're using it against them, you know, 0:33:24.360 --> 0:33:27.080 because they're going to be aggressive, and you know, balls 0:33:27.120 --> 0:33:28.720 to the wall for that first little bit, and then 0:33:28.760 --> 0:33:31.600 it's like, all right, that's two first downs, you know, yeah, 0:33:31.600 --> 0:33:32.800 all right, you know what the heck's going on? 0:33:32.880 --> 0:33:34.680 How do we slow this down? Right? And then once 0:33:34.680 --> 0:33:36.120 you get to the fifty, you got points. 0:33:36.200 --> 0:33:38.600 You don't want to be kicking field goals, obviously, but 0:33:38.680 --> 0:33:41.600 at least you in your head, in their head, crap, 0:33:41.640 --> 0:33:42.040 they got. 0:33:41.920 --> 0:33:43.280 Points on you know what, else, you will be taking 0:33:43.640 --> 0:33:45.760 ownership of tumbel position, which keeps you in love and 0:33:45.800 --> 0:33:47.520 that extent. So on the satellite, you have to let 0:33:47.520 --> 0:33:48.320 the clock play. 0:33:48.200 --> 0:33:52.560 Things the way that guys teams played Mica in the past, 0:33:53.120 --> 0:33:55.880 where they go away from them constantly. Do you see 0:33:55.960 --> 0:33:57.880 Dallas doing anything similar to that? Or do you want 0:33:57.920 --> 0:33:58.959 them to go straight at them? 0:33:58.960 --> 0:33:59.600 I want to go at them. 0:33:59.680 --> 0:34:00.920 I think I want to go out him. 0:34:00.920 --> 0:34:03.280 There was a play, if anybody wants to go back 0:34:03.320 --> 0:34:06.640 and watch, at third quarter of the Cleveland brown game, 0:34:06.720 --> 0:34:10.480 twelve minute and thirty two seconds. Running back for the 0:34:10.520 --> 0:34:14.000 Cleveland Browns, Queen Shawn Jenkins literally goes out. 0:34:13.920 --> 0:34:18.520 And destroys Micah. Destroys Micah. 0:34:19.080 --> 0:34:21.560 They pulled the guard and pull the guard out to 0:34:21.600 --> 0:34:23.480 go block Mike on the left side. He quen sewn 0:34:23.520 --> 0:34:27.440 Jenkins comes outside and runs through Micah's shoulder. 0:34:28.160 --> 0:34:30.959 Oh my goodness, O, Michae didn't like that. Michael point 0:34:31.040 --> 0:34:33.239 and down. No, no, he didn't even point. He was 0:34:33.320 --> 0:34:35.360 on the ground. No, I mean after he got up, 0:34:35.360 --> 0:34:36.320 he was just see that. 0:34:36.880 --> 0:34:38.680 The film went and went to the next play. 0:34:38.680 --> 0:34:40.000 That's how long he was on the gross like, oh, 0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:42.200 so you made at the guy for bro, Listen, he 0:34:42.400 --> 0:34:45.560 ran through his whole soul he did. I'll bring it 0:34:45.640 --> 0:34:47.840 up for you. He took him off the ground. 0:34:47.880 --> 0:34:48.000 Bro. 0:34:48.600 --> 0:34:52.319 Now, anybody on the Cowboys dude, oh yeah, oh yeah, 0:34:52.680 --> 0:34:56.399 you hope so. But as far as physic act physicality, goes. 0:34:56.440 --> 0:34:58.320 I don't know that you necessarily have those guys that 0:34:58.360 --> 0:35:00.800 are going to go at them in that way you hope. 0:35:00.800 --> 0:35:05.759 I mean, we're all here thinking and idealizing Dallas being 0:35:05.800 --> 0:35:09.320 physical against this team when you haven't necessarily said the past. 0:35:09.640 --> 0:35:12.600 But you have a different look, and you have Javonte Walling. 0:35:12.600 --> 0:35:15.400 You've at least seen flashes of it this year. I 0:35:15.480 --> 0:35:18.560 think there have been flashes of you being physical has 0:35:18.600 --> 0:35:22.839 been correct. When it hasn't been consistent, that's when it's 0:35:22.840 --> 0:35:25.160 been a problem. I thought they were physical against Philadelphia, 0:35:25.520 --> 0:35:28.120 they were physical in the second half against New York. 0:35:28.520 --> 0:35:31.120 They were physical in the first half, even after the 0:35:31.160 --> 0:35:34.239 fumble from Javonte Williams against Chicago when they went from 0:35:34.320 --> 0:35:37.120 down fourteen to three to tie at fourteen fourteen. But 0:35:37.239 --> 0:35:40.160 the fact of the matter is is it hasn't been consistent. 0:35:40.200 --> 0:35:42.759 I would prefer it has not. You have two backups, 0:35:42.920 --> 0:35:46.080 one at center, one a right guard. My concern there 0:35:46.160 --> 0:35:49.000 is pass pro so instead of that, give it to 0:35:49.080 --> 0:35:51.320 Davante and make them go right down here. That's what 0:35:51.360 --> 0:35:53.719 brought out they want to do anyway. Yeah, they want 0:35:53.760 --> 0:35:56.920 to fight, they want to engage. Let them clear lanes. 0:35:57.000 --> 0:35:58.600 You can move those guys. Yeah, let them, let them 0:35:58.640 --> 0:36:00.800 clear lanes like, don't ask them to no, no, no, 0:36:01.280 --> 0:36:03.280 go eat and eat hardy. 0:36:03.440 --> 0:36:08.080 And part of that part that is eating on first, chunky, chunky. 0:36:08.560 --> 0:36:10.440 You have to succeed on first. Second, ye can't put 0:36:10.440 --> 0:36:14.200 yourself you cannot put yourself in that. 0:36:14.400 --> 0:36:17.160 And don't come out throwing on first. Just just don't 0:36:17.160 --> 0:36:19.399 get don't get cute, don't get cute, don't get cute. 0:36:19.480 --> 0:36:20.040 Play physical. 0:36:20.200 --> 0:36:22.920 We're gonna go ahead and take our second break.

Science. 0:39:04.080 --> 0:39:07.719 Yes, science is there, we go science lab coat. All right. 0:39:07.800 --> 0:39:12.040 So let's talk about starting a season a season record wise. Okay. 0:39:12.120 --> 0:39:14.200 So the Cowboys started off with an on to two. 0:39:14.280 --> 0:39:17.960 I'm one and two record escaped against the Giants. Cool beans, 0:39:18.360 --> 0:39:22.640 got wopped by the Bears. Not so cool beans, And 0:39:22.760 --> 0:39:25.120 here come the very pissed off Green Bay Packers on 0:39:25.160 --> 0:39:28.799 the heels of losing to the Cleveland Browns. Very very 0:39:28.840 --> 0:39:31.799 good Cleveland Browns defense, as your defense is still trying 0:39:31.800 --> 0:39:34.600 to figure out how to get from the bottom third. 0:39:34.719 --> 0:39:36.319 I think they're third worse than the league right now, 0:39:36.480 --> 0:39:38.799 the first of end of the ball. Yeah, not great, 0:39:38.840 --> 0:39:42.759 Bob MGB. So here's the thing. Shoddy is saying all 0:39:42.800 --> 0:39:44.880 the right things. I'm sure the coordinators will say all 0:39:44.880 --> 0:39:46.719 the right things. Every game is a must win, no 0:39:46.840 --> 0:39:50.200 matter what the record is. True enough, go one and 0:39:50.239 --> 0:39:53.640 oh this week? However, yeah, go one and oh this week. Cool, 0:39:53.800 --> 0:39:56.239 that's what you need to do. Here's why when an 0:39:56.320 --> 0:39:58.520 NFL team starts off at one and two, they have 0:39:58.680 --> 0:40:00.560 thirty percent chance of making the play. That's where the 0:40:00.600 --> 0:40:06.760 Cowboys are right now. Okay, not great, but it's it's workable. Okay, 0:40:07.600 --> 0:40:10.239 if they find a way to go to two and two, 0:40:10.360 --> 0:40:12.440 I don't care how you do it, just figured it out. 0:40:12.440 --> 0:40:14.120 If you figure out a way to shock the world 0:40:14.200 --> 0:40:16.520 and defeat the Green Bay Packers on Sunday Night football, 0:40:16.840 --> 0:40:20.000 your odds jumped to forty two percent, a forty two 0:40:20.040 --> 0:40:22.880 percent chance of making the playoffs. Now you're flirting with 0:40:23.000 --> 0:40:24.880 fifty to fifty at that point as far as the 0:40:24.880 --> 0:40:26.919 odds are concerned, if you can just get to five 0:40:27.040 --> 0:40:31.200 hundred at two and two. However, if you lose this 0:40:31.360 --> 0:40:35.440 game and for all to one in three, your odds 0:40:35.480 --> 0:40:40.719 of making the playoffs become fifteen percent. One five. You 0:40:40.880 --> 0:40:43.400 have a fifteen percent chance of making the playoffs. 0:40:43.840 --> 0:40:45.560 Since fifteen out of thirty. 0:40:47.120 --> 0:40:50.319 No, oh, fifteen out of one hundred. That's not good, Yeah, 0:40:50.320 --> 0:40:54.520 because your math wasn't But I know you did, one person, Yeah, 0:40:54.600 --> 0:40:57.759 only fifteen percent. Since nineteen ninety, only twenty five teams 0:40:57.800 --> 0:41:00.239 who started one in three have actually made the play Else, 0:41:00.280 --> 0:41:02.520 none of those teams have made the conference championship. They 0:41:02.560 --> 0:41:09.440 respected championship, so massive, massive difference, nearly a thirty percentage 0:41:09.480 --> 0:41:12.319 point difference between starting two and two and starting one 0:41:12.360 --> 0:41:15.279 and three. So again, coaches are saying all the right things. 0:41:15.320 --> 0:41:16.680 Players are going to say all the right things. They 0:41:16.719 --> 0:41:18.520 need to get on the field and do the right thing, 0:41:18.640 --> 0:41:21.960 like Spike Lee. That's what you do that because otherwise 0:41:22.440 --> 0:41:24.719 otherwise you might as well start at least getting the 0:41:24.760 --> 0:41:27.440 boxes out. Not going to say it ends the season, 0:41:27.520 --> 0:41:33.080 but start dragon boxing. So this this is the definition 0:41:33.719 --> 0:41:35.960 of a must win game. You gotta have it. And 0:41:36.800 --> 0:41:38.640 I saw someone on Twitter made it. They made the 0:41:38.680 --> 0:41:41.400 next excellent point. I don't know if I subscribe to it, 0:41:41.680 --> 0:41:44.640 but they made an excellent point. We talked so frequently 0:41:44.760 --> 0:41:47.680 about the Cowboys over the years, and you know when 0:41:47.719 --> 0:41:49.640 they play a Saints team, was at a trap game? 0:41:50.280 --> 0:41:52.880 And was the Bears a trap game? Is this the 0:41:52.920 --> 0:41:53.839 Packers trap game? 0:41:54.640 --> 0:41:55.319 Certainly, hope, So. 0:41:56.400 --> 0:41:59.080 Something to consider or was that and answer the question? 0:41:59.280 --> 0:42:01.080 Or game last week? 0:42:01.600 --> 0:42:03.520 No, because of the Browns defense. They knew going in 0:42:03.960 --> 0:42:05.560 that the Browns defense was going to be a problem 0:42:05.880 --> 0:42:08.560 coming in to play the Cowboys, especially on the heels 0:42:08.560 --> 0:42:11.560 of the Cowboys offense losing Ceedeelamb Tyler Booker and struggling 0:42:12.000 --> 0:42:15.640 to score points against the Chicago Bears defense. The Packers 0:42:15.680 --> 0:42:18.200 are looking at the Cowboys defense and offense, and they 0:42:18.280 --> 0:42:21.640 might see to them, they might see lunch. Might this 0:42:21.800 --> 0:42:23.440 make that a trap game for the Packers. I'm just 0:42:23.480 --> 0:42:25.400 curious what the fans think, because somebody tweeted it to 0:42:25.440 --> 0:42:27.520 me yesterday and I said back, I said, in my 0:42:27.680 --> 0:42:32.560 very Josh Rodriguez voice, I was like, might this be 0:42:32.920 --> 0:42:35.120 a trap game for the Maybe? Maybe? 0:42:35.280 --> 0:42:36.280 Do you think it is? Josh? 0:42:37.239 --> 0:42:38.279 I see what you did there. 0:42:38.719 --> 0:42:39.800 What's up? Do you think it is? 0:42:41.840 --> 0:42:44.160 I don't think it deserves to be one. I think 0:42:44.280 --> 0:42:47.759 you have enough juice on both sides to argue a 0:42:47.880 --> 0:42:52.640 winner or loss, at least for me and selfishly, you know, 0:42:52.920 --> 0:42:55.920 viewing this from a Dallas Cowboys lens, you have to 0:42:56.040 --> 0:42:59.000 have this new game. I have it and this has 0:42:59.040 --> 0:43:02.160 been circled on myccun since before the Micah trade. They 0:43:02.239 --> 0:43:04.879 have not won against the Green Bay Packers at home. 0:43:05.120 --> 0:43:09.439 That is a embarrassing stat The fact that the last 0:43:09.480 --> 0:43:13.279 time they were here absolutely crushed your dreams. We were 0:43:13.360 --> 0:43:16.520 all there, we all witnessed it. It was one of 0:43:16.560 --> 0:43:20.520 the worst losses personally as a fan I've ever seen, 0:43:20.880 --> 0:43:23.920 and to the organization, one of the most devastating losses 0:43:23.960 --> 0:43:26.399 because of the the everything that fell after. 0:43:26.520 --> 0:43:28.719 Still you're still feeling that. 0:43:30.560 --> 0:43:30.759 Game. 0:43:30.880 --> 0:43:34.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, the aftershock of that game still lingers 0:43:34.080 --> 0:43:36.680 with you. You need to get right, no matter who's 0:43:36.680 --> 0:43:38.960 on the other side of the ball. I don't know 0:43:39.280 --> 0:43:41.359 if you're wearing a star in your helmet, I don't 0:43:41.360 --> 0:43:43.759 know how you don't play your best game against the. 0:43:44.280 --> 0:43:47.520 All out there man. And this, this lab Coat edition 0:43:47.640 --> 0:43:52.480 will be inclusive in today's Science Lab column that drops 0:43:52.560 --> 0:43:55.080 this morning on Dallas Cowboys dot com. So make sure 0:43:55.120 --> 0:43:58.719 you check out that science Maybe it will science Science. Well, 0:43:58.800 --> 0:44:01.960 web Master says, maybe it will. I mean, he's a 0:44:02.000 --> 0:44:05.400 great chair dancer, so maybe if I just throw it. Okay, 0:44:06.360 --> 0:44:06.759 you tried. 0:44:06.920 --> 0:44:09.120 It was a good shot. Good try at it. Were 0:44:09.200 --> 0:44:13.480 there such things as trap games in your mind, Isaiah, No, No. 0:44:13.800 --> 0:44:17.120 There's games as a player that you are heavily favored 0:44:17.239 --> 0:44:20.280 and you can not take them as seriously, take them lightly. 0:44:20.840 --> 0:44:23.560 But trap games, especially in the NFL, it's kind of tough. 0:44:23.680 --> 0:44:25.600 Yeah, because you know, maybe. 0:44:25.480 --> 0:44:28.359 In college there's teams that you know you're much better than, 0:44:28.480 --> 0:44:30.239 and you got to wake up and make sure you 0:44:30.320 --> 0:44:32.360 show up prepared otherwise they'll sneak up on you and 0:44:32.600 --> 0:44:33.880 you try to find your way in the middle of 0:44:33.880 --> 0:44:36.080 the game, try to trying to snap into it. You 0:44:36.200 --> 0:44:39.000 might not have enough time, right, So you gotta approach 0:44:39.040 --> 0:44:40.440 every game like it's like it's brand new. 0:44:40.920 --> 0:44:42.920 And that's exactly what we expect the Cowboys to do 0:44:43.160 --> 0:44:47.560 in a highly charged emotional environment on Sunday Night football 0:44:48.040 --> 0:44:51.080 as the Packers come to town this weekend.
