1
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: The following. He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Are you ready for

3
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 1: a break? Yes? Are you ready for a break? Absolutely?

4
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: Ready for a break? Yeah, and so much for that.

5
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 1: It's time for The Break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com

6
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: with Nick Eatman, David Hellman, and bar Garcia and Derek Eagleton. Hello, guys,

7
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 1: welcome to another episode of The Break. The Cowboys are

8
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: now two, I know, after beating another division rival this

9
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 1: weekend against the Redskins thirty one twenty one. Before we

10
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: get into it, how are you guys doing. I'm fantastic.

11
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: We got home at eight fifteen, at a regular night's sleep.

12
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: Cowboys looked good. What could you possibly complain about? Oh,

13
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: I'm sure there are there's things that people could find,

14
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: and they are finding him. But I think that just

15
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 1: goes to the expectations of this team that you know

16
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: you can Oh my god, what's wrong with the defense?

17
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: I mean, give it up twenty one point. This is

18
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: a good football team, and I think we knew that

19
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 1: before this season started, and we're finding it out and

20
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: don't know how good Washington is or the Giants don't

21
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 1: look that great. But you're gonna face bad teams, and

22
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 1: what you're supposed to do is you're supposed to beat

23
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: them down. And I think they're gonna face a bat

24
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: even I almost said batter team. They're gonna face a batter.

25
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: You could probably come up with new adjectives to describe

26
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins, but well you know that. Well, yeah,

27
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 1: we'll get to them. You never know what could happen.

28
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: You know, it's very impossible. You're right, they might cover,

29
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: but you never know. But let's start off with this game.

30
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the offense started kind of bad.

31
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: Dak ended up doing what he does basically usually takes

32
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: him a little while to get going, and yesterday he

33
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: aside from being under pressure, aside from throwing an interception

34
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 1: which wasn't really his fault, maybe that was kind of

35
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: on Randall cup a little bit. But then after all that,

36
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 1: he didn't. He stayed put, very focused, ended up getting

37
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: completing twenty six out of thirty attempts for two hundred

38
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 1: and sixty nine yards his final his final eighteen passes

39
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: and all fourteen of his passes in the second half.

40
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: Very impressive. Yeah, so where how did he turn the

41
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: switch on? What happened then that we saw the offense

42
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: finally being able to get moving even after being pressure.

43
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: I think this team just does a good job and

44
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: whether it's Kellen Moore, whether it's John Kitting up top,

45
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: whoever on offense, they do a good job of figuring

46
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,119
Speaker 1: out what can we do here? What what what is working?

47
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: And what are the Redskins trying to do? And as

48
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: the Giant or whoever, and let's beat them. I mean,

49
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: the most impressive thing to me when I look at

50
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: all these stats is that for the second straight game,

51
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: they have scored touchdowns on five straight possessions. Last week

52
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: was five touchdowns, this week four touchdowns in a field goal.

53
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: They are figuring out, Okay, I see what you've gained

54
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: planned all week to do. Got it. Good job, nice sack,

55
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: good interception, not happening again. Watch this and then they

56
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: just take over. Yeah that's you know, not to pat

57
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 1: myself on the back, but it looked let me pat

58
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: myself on the back. Yeah, always when you say that,

59
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: that's what you're gonna do. But it kind of encompassed

60
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 1: like what I thought was going to happen. Although I

61
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: didn't expect them to struggle so much early and then

62
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: after they struggled. I didn't expect it to be that

63
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: easy the rest of the way, Like I kind of

64
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: thought it would be more back and forth. I said

65
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: they'd win by ten, but I thought it would feel

66
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: a little bit closer than that. And like they got

67
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: all the struggles out of the way in like twenty

68
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: minutes and then they were like, all right, let's go

69
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: carrot it over time. You should listen to your buddy, Derek.

70
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, oh, what do you say? I don't

71
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: remember what about. So what I said was we can

72
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: go back and play if I want to. I actually

73
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: said it was going to be adversity at the beginning

74
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: of the game, and everybody would be like, man, this

75
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: isn't the team we saw last year, last week. Then

76
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: the Cowboys would get going, the Cowboys got out to

77
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: a comfortable lead at the end, the Cowboys would win it.

78
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: Thirty one twenty three was my final score. And I'm sorry,

79
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: thirty one twenty three was my final score. I said,

80
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: But the Redskins would score late in order to make

81
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: you look closer than it actually was. That's exactly I'm

82
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: just every once in a while, if you get these right.

83
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: It really every once in a while you get these right.

84
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: It really was finny one. I gave you about twenty.

85
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 1: It did have a twenty plays a game, and I

86
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: got one. Yeah, and it was a good one. And

87
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 1: it was we were standing we were sitting there and

88
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Nick says, Devin Street to the house.

89
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: Now I'm Darren Smith. Now I'm doing I did that

90
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 1: because I watched New We should do it last night. Anyway,

91
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: very different players, it very different. Nick was like Dev

92
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: Smith to the house. And I just kind of I

93
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: didn't even really pay attention to it. It was just

94
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: kind of like, okay, here Nick goes with his predictions again,

95
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: and then here he's gone down and play. And so, yeah,

96
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: that was a good one. That was a really good

97
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: one out of twenty. That was a good one because

98
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: that's not one that you would just if you would

99
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 1: just say Cooper to the house thing, you know, that

100
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: doesn't count. But I honestly saw him out there and

101
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: I thought, they don't think he can run that fast.

102
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: I bet you that they don't think that he could

103
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: just fly right by him. But you know the thing

104
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: about that, and the play action is huge. I mean

105
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: Zeke doesn't have the greatest numbers. I mean, good game, great,

106
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: great game. But to me, this is all about Zeke

107
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: and and the and the running game. I mean, the

108
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 1: two biggest plays of the game on offense to me

109
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: were Devin Smith and Dack's run, and both of them

110
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 1: were off play fakes, one to Pollard and one to Zeke.

111
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: I think the offensive line, the running game gets so

112
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: much attention. This other stuff's you know, just falling right

113
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: into their lap. And the Red I mean, the Redskins

114
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 1: did not. It didn't look like they over adjusted for

115
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 1: the four hundred yards in week one, like there were

116
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 1: still a ton of guys out in the box. They

117
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: tried to trash it up and stop Zeke. I think

118
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: you're absolutely right. Play action was another big part of this.

119
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 1: It's just wild to me, you know, last year and

120
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 1: for years, like adjustments as everybody's fit. Oh, they'll make

121
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: any adjustments. They're not adjusting. Well, everything that we thought

122
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: Washington might do to muck this thing up happened in

123
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: the first ten minutes. You know, Karagan, dron Payne not

124
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: being able to run the ball, Dack not having time

125
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 1: certainly looked like they adjusted because it stopped being a

126
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: problem after about the first quarter, like and again, once

127
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: they got it out of the way, Washington didn't really

128
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 1: put up a fight the rest of the game until

129
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: it was thirty one fourteen. Like I kind of thought

130
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: there would be a few back and forth where it's like,

131
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 1: all right, Dallas is up twenty one and seven, here

132
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: comes the Washington run. Did not happen twenty four Then

133
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: they went and made it twenty four fourteen. Yeah, that's right. First,

134
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 1: there was never a twenty one to fourteen was a

135
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,559
Speaker 1: one score game, And I thought the interesting part about

136
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 1: that was that, Okay, here we go, crowds into it,

137
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: and what do the Cowboys do? They sit Zeke Yeah,

138
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 1: and they let Pollard take that whole drive. I thought

139
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: that the first down pass to Jarwin, we had a

140
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: great view of it. It was a great throw by

141
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: dak to Jarwin, and it was like, all right, you know,

142
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: we see your touchdown, and we see that you got

143
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: the momentum back. We're gonna take it right back with Pollard.

144
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: There was there was never a point in that game

145
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: after fourteen to seven where I felt like Washington was

146
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 1: threatening to try to retake control of the game, like

147
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: not no point whatsoever, even when it was at one

148
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: score game, and that was surprising and impressive to me.

149
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: Like I hesitate to call it a complete and total beatdown,

150
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: but it was a you know, in the NFL, it

151
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: was a controlled, you hate to say, easy, but easy

152
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: looking win. You can see. You can have those games

153
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 1: sometimes and you're like there was no doubt throughout the

154
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: game of who the better team was. Yeah, sometimes those

155
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: things will flip on you another other team will win.

156
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: But usually in those kind of games you can kind

157
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: of sense that. I mean, I don't really want to

158
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: say this, but it was kind of like Texas playing LSU.

159
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: I never, at any moment that game felt like we

160
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: were a better team. I felt like LSU was the

161
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: better team and there were moments when we could have

162
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: won it, but that were just a better team. But

163
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: I think it was the same thing yesterday. Cowboys were

164
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: just a better team throughout the entire game. And that's

165
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: probably going to be the case on almost every game.

166
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if they played that way, yeah, but

167
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: I think they're going to be the better football team

168
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: just about every every week. There are probably two teams

169
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: right now I look at and I say they are

170
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: equal to them, at least equal to them. Like I

171
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,199
Speaker 1: wouldn't call them the better team. That would be the

172
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: Packers and the and the Patriots. Obviously the Patriots are

173
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: the Patriots. But yeah, yeah, they're gonna have some challenges

174
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 1: this year and we'll get to see and they're gonna

175
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: lose some of these. Absolutely that you know, a team

176
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: that you're not expected to be I feel I feel

177
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: like Jason Garrett right now, and that there was and

178
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: I'm not you know, I'm not hating on y'all, but

179
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: there was a lot of chatter last night during that

180
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: Eagles Falcons game. I was like, well, if the Eagles

181
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,559
Speaker 1: and Falcons look like this, who can challenge the Cowboys.

182
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: I'm like, calm down, guys, It's September fifteenth. The Cowboys

183
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: looked like trash through most of the first six weeks

184
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,439
Speaker 1: of last year. I'm not ready to write off the

185
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: Eagles because they didn't look great last night. I'm not

186
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: ready to write off a lot of teams. Anybody does

187
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: that has not been watching the NFL. Yeah, but again,

188
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: you can only play who you can play, and through

189
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: two weeks, the Cowboys look about as impressive as anybody

190
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: in the NFL. There you go. Now, you know, we

191
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: always talk about the old line and when they struggle,

192
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: that becomes an issue for the Cowboys and then the

193
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: game kind of goes down. But even despite of Connor

194
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 1: Williams not playing well, even as regardless of us talking

195
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,439
Speaker 1: so many good things about him during training camp and

196
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: all preseason, it wasn't a good game based on the

197
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 1: adjustments that we saw Kellen Moore do during the game.

198
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: Do you feel a little bit more comfortable or confident

199
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: that you're not so worried from those games where Doc

200
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 1: is going to be under pressure but they're able to

201
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 1: get out of there and still make plays. I'm not worried.

202
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I thought the offensive line is playing very

203
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: very well. Connor Williams. It happens all the time. When

204
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: you have a great line, there's always a guy or

205
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: two that they're not elite, and so they kind of

206
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: stand out a little bit. And he didn't have a

207
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: great game, and maybe he doesn't play well in Washington.

208
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: That's two now that he hasn't played well. But you

209
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,599
Speaker 1: know the rest of the line is playing great and

210
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: if he if he doesn't pick it up, I think

211
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: they'll replace him. I'm not sure there's not a better

212
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: backup than him right now, but that's not I don't

213
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 1: know if they're at that point where they need to

214
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: do that. Yeah, I'm interested because there are some teams

215
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: that they are going to play this year that have

216
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 1: a similar guy to de Ryan Payne in the middle

217
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: of their defense that he's gonna have to deal with,

218
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: and so I'm a little bit concerned from that standpoint.

219
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: He's gonna have to face that kind of guy every week,

220
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 1: so he'll be fine. A lot of the times. I

221
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 1: do wonder though, when he faces you know, better talent

222
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 1: at the defensive tackle position, if this is gonna be

223
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: a common theme because he did not have a good

224
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: game now, but he's a competitor. And when remember in

225
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: the playoffs and it was like, how's this guy going

226
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,839
Speaker 1: to handle the rams? He played really well against the

227
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: best defensive player in all of football, and so he

228
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: you know, I would imagine he'll step up to the challenge.

229
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 1: And you know, for an offensive lineman, you get called

230
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: for a holding, you get you get beat for a sack,

231
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,319
Speaker 1: and give up another play and that's three plays and

232
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: you're like, this guy's terrible. They ran probably but sixty plays. Yeah,

233
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 1: he may not have played that bad. I think he

234
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 1: was fine on it. Like, I'm not worried about it

235
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: at all. Like and and yeah, I mean they had

236
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: their struggles in the first quarter. They got it together.

237
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,559
Speaker 1: He's got Travis Frederick to help him out. That's huge. Um.

238
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,319
Speaker 1: And yeah, it's it's probably unrealistic to think all five

239
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: of your guys across the line are gonna be all

240
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: pros capable of handling their business. I mean, Lyle played

241
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: great against Karagan. Again, you know, Karagan got the sack.

242
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: That was all paying for me. Like that's so it

243
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: was all about Connor. Yeah, I was not about Lyle.

244
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: But again from like from the end of the first

245
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: quarter on, I did not really notice a problem, So

246
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: I'm not super worried about it. Yeah, that's one of

247
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: the things I love about what Kellen's doing right now.

248
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: K I'm talk about kell him Moore just because you're right, Nick,

249
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,959
Speaker 1: I think it was you was saying, like, he's the

250
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: fact that they are able to make these adjustments, which

251
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: in both games first possession, but as game wore on,

252
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 1: they got better and better and better and better. And

253
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: that to me is all about adjusting to what the

254
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 1: defense is showing you and taking advantage of your opportunities. Yeah,

255
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: I mean third and one, you know, I thought that

256
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 1: on the first on the interception third and one, I mean,

257
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: let's run the ball or at least get dacted to it,

258
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,319
Speaker 1: but miss a shotgun. It was almost like it was

259
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 1: third and eight, you know, And they throws it and

260
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: gets intercepted. And they come back on the third and

261
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 1: one again with Pollard, and I thought maybe the play

262
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: of the game or one of them when Dak scrambled

263
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: or and I scrambled, it was the zone read and

264
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: he got around and faked me out because I think too.

265
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: I was like, what is Pollard doing? Like run and

266
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: then I realized that Dak had the ball. Yeah, it's

267
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: funny how much really good at faking it. I said

268
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: this during the game, like, and I mean Devin Smith

269
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: got open, he burned Josh Norman, great play call, all

270
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,719
Speaker 1: of that, but like Dak is so good at this

271
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: sleight of hand and the body posture that fakes the

272
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 1: defense out, like fake play, fake to Zeke. Then he

273
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: play fakes it again on the screen, like if you

274
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: go back and watch it, like half the defense bites

275
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: on two different fakes, and he's just so good at

276
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 1: stuff like that. Like Smith beat his man anyway, but

277
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 1: it just makes it that much easier of a play

278
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: when you can throw people off like and I love

279
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: that of the past to Smith. I love the fact

280
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: that he was like, that's just knowing your guy is knowing, Okay,

281
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: where's the open part. I'm gonna throw it way out here,

282
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: and he's gonna go get it because he can run

283
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: and go, you know, and do that. And then now

284
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 1: when Devin Smith is in the game or watch fifteen,

285
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 1: because he can run, that's only that's just another weapon

286
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: that you've got. And he might be out there a

287
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: little bit more now because he's the one guy that

288
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: can really stretch the field like that. These other receivers, well,

289
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: I say that Gallup can run too. Now he ran

290
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: right by Josh Norman. I was kind of a whose

291
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,719
Speaker 1: fault was that on that deep ball though he kind

292
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: of you know, turned, and honestly, I don't know there

293
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: was anybody's fault. It just I don't think he tracked

294
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:13,959
Speaker 1: it the well as well as he should have. And

295
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if Dak threw it in the best

296
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: position for him to have to come back across and

297
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: catch on that side. I don't think it was the

298
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: perfect throw for that route, but I also think he

299
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: could have adjusted to it better sim I mean, similar

300
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 1: to the Cobb interception, is like, yeah, da, Dak could

301
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: have placed that better. But also he was under duress

302
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: and it hit Cobb's hands like he would prefer not

303
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: to bat that into the air. And Cobb did say

304
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 1: after the game, He's like, I was on me, I

305
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: should I gotta catch that Well's and it's you know,

306
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: and that's been an issue, especially with Gallup. That's been

307
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: an issue for Dak, and people kill him for it.

308
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I thought that in the NFL, if

309
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: the ball hits your hands and it's on you, even

310
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: if it could have been a better throw, Like that's

311
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: what I've heard since I was a kid. So it

312
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: seems like his body place, man, he was just not

313
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: a place right, Like he was turned in word and

314
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: then the ball was coming behind him a little bit

315
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: and just making that an adjustment to turn all the

316
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: way around. That's just weird. Yeah, that would have been

317
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: a tough catch. I mean, that's a tough catch when

318
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: you're tracking on the right and the ball's coming over

319
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: the left, and you got to kind of track it

320
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: over your head, like with a helmet and shoulder pads on.

321
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: Like you think about. You don't have the same range

322
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 1: of motion as you normally, so trying to track that

323
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: that's a tough thing to do. So it would have

324
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: been a tough catch, I think all the way around. Probably.

325
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: I don't know that I blame either one of them.

326
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 1: They both could have done things maybe a little bit

327
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: different or better, but I mean, it is what it is.

328
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: That's a fifty fifty ball. There's a reason why they

329
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: called fifty fifty balls. And just the fact that how

330
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: he turned on the jets to just zoom right past

331
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: him there, Like he's got some speed. He's a deep

332
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: ball guy for sure, obviously Devin Smith is, and I

333
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 1: still think Cooper can, I mean as well. I mean,

334
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: that's not his best part of his game. He can

335
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: get by you, and I don't know if it's the

336
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: best part of his game, but he's pretty damn good

337
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: at it. You can ask Phillies DBS. Yeah, he's a glider.

338
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: He just kind of cold. How long do we have

339
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: before we bring about to take him all right, I have.

340
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: I really want to talk about my favorite subplot to

341
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 1: this whole thing, but we can save it for they. Well,

342
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: we'll do it right when we get back from this break.

343
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: While a player could look good on paper, it's when

344
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: he's out on the field that you really find out

345
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: what he's made of. That's why the Cowboys rely on

346
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,960

347
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: When picking a tractor, it's why you should rely on

348
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: more than just specs and features. You've got to take

349
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: it out and put it to the test. The Cowboys

350
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,640

Speaker 1: allow you just take it away, Okay, I wrote I

380
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 1: wrote a story last night about how Dak did such

381
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,719
Speaker 1: a good job of spreading the ball around everybody, eight

382
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: different receivers, two different running backs, YadA YadA, YadA YadA,

383
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: and something that really jumped out to me. I hate

384
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: to throw shade at him because I love Dez Bryant,

385
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 1: but I just couldn't help but think about the old

386
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: days when win or lose. If Dez Bryant were to

387
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: finish with four catches for forty four yards in a

388
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: touchdown win or lose, we would be sitting here today

389
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 1: talking about, like how can they get Dez going? What?

390
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: What was the defense doing that kind of limited Dez's day?

391
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 1: Like that's that's not what he's about, YadA YadA, YadA,

392
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 1: YadA YadA, like regardless of seeing so many other guys

393
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: being involved and productive, well, well change. First, First of all,

394
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: the old Cowboys offense never had in the time I've

395
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: been here, there were never this many guys that could

396
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: be on top of the stat sheet, like you're talking

397
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 1: Dez or you know, Zeke as a runner, passer, combined whatever,

398
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: But there weren't that many other options, you know, like

399
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 1: once in a blue moon, you'll have a Terrence Williams

400
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 1: blow up game like the Chiefs a couple of years ago.

401
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: But like, there weren't a lot of other options. And

402
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: that's kind of my point is look down on the

403
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: stat sheet. Devin Smith is leading the team in yards,

404
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,959
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup is leading the teams and team in receptions.

405
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: Randall Cobb had at least one, if not two, pretty

406
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: clutch third down conversions. There's just so many options that

407
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter. I mean, I hate to say

408
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter, but Amari Cooper can be like your

409
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 1: third or fourth option, and the offense still rolled. Everybody

410
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: got involved, everything looked good, and everybody was happy at

411
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: the end of the day. And that's first of all,

412
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: it's refreshing. Second of all, it's scary in a good

413
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: way in terms of what this offense could be like.

414
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 1: If you don't need Amari Cooper to take over to roll,

415
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,160
Speaker 1: that's exciting. And I just I was writing this story

416
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 1: last night and I was like, this is amazing. Like

417
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup as your leading receiver through two games, and

418
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: it's awesome. And I think the key there, and I

419
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 1: think we talked about this before the season, like if

420
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: you really you know, you can say pick your poison.

421
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: But the guys have to be able to handle it,

422
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 1: Like they have to be able to handle games like

423
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,880
Speaker 1: this and not having you know, the divas that want

424
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: the ball all the time. And you know, Mary Cooper

425
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 1: came from Oakland, so he's like, well, I'm just happy

426
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: to win. And you know, I would think he's not

427
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 1: really that worried about it. He was saying it on

428
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 1: the sideline and after, I mean during the last game

429
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: he was telling I think it was Gallop he was

430
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 1: talking to where he was like, look, when we present

431
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 1: this kind of of of offense to an opponent, it

432
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: is too hard for them to be able to keep

433
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: up with. They don't know where the ball is going

434
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: to go from play to play because everybody's getting involved.

435
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 1: So we want everybody to get involved, right. He talked

436
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: about that last night. He was like, imagine being a

437
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator watching the tape of this and everybody's putting

438
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 1: plays on tape and the other somebody asked him like,

439
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: do you kind of have to fight against that natural

440
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,200
Speaker 1: instinct to want the ball and classic coup. He was

441
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 1: just like, no, I worry about the opportunities that I

442
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 1: do get and that's that's enough. Which I just love it.

443
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: I love that guy. Which I don't say any of

444
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: this to like insinuate that Dez Bryant was this problem child,

445
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: like he really never had that very many moments where he,

446
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 1: you know, give me the ball, give me the ball,

447
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: Like we know that's not true, but it still was

448
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 1: this ever president story. Yeah, it was this ever present

449
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: storyline where it's like, if we're not targeting Dez seventeen

450
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 1: times a game, the offense probably isn't gonna do what

451
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 1: we wanted to do. And it's just it's it's new

452
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 1: and exciting to see this where it's like everybody's gonna

453
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,400
Speaker 1: do a little bit. Nobody really has to take over

454
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: for this thing to work. So what's going on with

455
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup and the injury? So he banged his knee. Um,

456
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: we don't know the severity. He's getting an MRI. I

457
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: think it's okay, Like Mr sounds scary, but guys, get

458
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,639
Speaker 1: him our eyes for everything, like you have access to

459
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 1: it anyway, why not just be safe but something to

460
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 1: keep an eye on. Hopefully Jason garrettle update us later today.

461
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,680
Speaker 1: I would hate to sound like an idiot. I don't

462
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: think it's serious, but we'll see. Let's see what Jason says.

463
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 1: All right, well, let's get into the defense, because there's

464
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: a lot well the same ghost for Antoine Woods for

465
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: anybody that hasn't heard any injury with MCL doesn't seem

466
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: to be too severe, but again they're looking into it.

467
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 1: So yeah, sorry, And as Nick was mentioning during the break,

468
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 1: you know, being having the Dolphins coming up next that

469
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: eases things with guys that are injured that you can

470
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,920
Speaker 1: probably sit down and not worry about it. And they're

471
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 1: I think they're looking for a way to get Tristan

472
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: Hill in the game, and this would be this would

473
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 1: be one to do that. Let's see, let's see what

474
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: his injury is like. But I mean, I definitely think

475
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: they would love the opportunity to get him involved. Well,

476
00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: there are going to be some changes in the defensive

477
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 1: line in this week, but before we get into that,

478
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:06,160
Speaker 1: let's just talk about the defense overall. People are kind

479
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,919
Speaker 1: of starting to or keep talking about the defense kind

480
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: of concern about their production and what they've been doing

481
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 1: on the field, not necessarily the kind of defense we

482
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 1: were talking about last year, they've been kind of slow

483
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 1: a little bit. What is going on? What is the

484
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: problem here? Let's start off with the defensive line. Can

485
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 1: I correct? I don't think there's a problem. That's I think.

486
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: I'm glad we're on the side. I think the defense

487
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: is played. Probably problem in the aspect of when you

488
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: start talking about comparison between last year and what they

489
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,680
Speaker 1: we're doing. You know, people's expectations. We go back with expectations. Yeah,

490
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 1: I think there's been plenty of years if you go

491
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: back and you look that the Patriots had the worst

492
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: rank defense in the NFL, and that's because of how

493
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: these games are going when you have a lead like that.

494
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: The Cowboys weren't having as money many leads early in

495
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 1: the season, having to rely on the defense to make

496
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 1: plays and feel position and all that. With the Cowboys

497
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 1: score in the way they are, I think I think

498
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: it's opening up for teams to to, you know, get

499
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: some chunk plays in the second half. I think the

500
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: defense they're getting off the field. Yeah, they could get

501
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 1: more Saxon turnovers. Jalen Smith said that to be elite,

502
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 1: we had to get Saxon turnover. We got to do

503
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 1: a better job but they're getting off the field and

504
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:20,199
Speaker 1: they're making some plays. I think the defense is actually

505
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 1: playing really well. That's it's so fun. And yeah, like

506
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not trying to talk down to anybody

507
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: listening to this because I'm with you, like you know,

508
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 1: you're see you know Byron Jones, Anthony Brown. They're giving

509
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 1: up receptions. The Redskins seemed to be moving the ball

510
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 1: pretty well. They go down and score a late touchdown.

511
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 1: You're like, eh, I don't know about it, Like it

512
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,639
Speaker 1: doesn't doesn't feel like they had a good day. Then

513
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: you pull out the stat sheet. Two of nine on

514
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 1: third down, two hundred and fifty five total yards, less

515
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: than five yards per play um red zone. They didn't

516
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 1: allow three or three in the red zone. That ain't great, um,

517
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 1: But like you look at what they did on paper

518
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 1: and it was pretty good. Especially with an offense that's

519
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: cracked thirty points in both games so far. They are

520
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 1: not generating enough pressure on the quarterback and they missed

521
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 1: at least two, if not three opportunities at takeaways like that.

522
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: If you're going to criticize them, that's where it lies.

523
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 1: For me. One sack or two sacks in two games

524
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: one per game not awesome. I thought, you know, Malie

525
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: Collins and Christian Covington were great against the run yesterday

526
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: Washington couldn't really do anything but not blowing up the

527
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 1: pocket the way that we thought we might see so

528
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: far in training camp, or you know what I mean,

529
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: after what we watched in training camp, and then you know,

530
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: Jeff Heath and Xavier Woods should both have interceptions today

531
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 1: like both of them had good shots at it. I

532
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 1: think that's the key, and I think you're right amber

533
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: It's really about expectations, and I'm a big believer in that.

534
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,959
Speaker 1: From the standpoint of what I thought of this defense

535
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: coming out of training camp to what I've seen through

536
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 1: the first two weeks, they haven't been as as spectacular

537
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: as I thought they would be. And what I mean

538
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,679
Speaker 1: by that is I thought there would be more bigger plays.

539
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: I thought these linebackers were be making more or tackles Philossies.

540
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: I thought the secondary will be getting more interceptions. I

541
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 1: thought the defensive line will be getting more pressure and

542
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 1: more sacks. And I'm not seeing that. That's the part

543
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,360
Speaker 1: that is a little bit troubling, because again, going back

544
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: to what we thought of them, my thought was they

545
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: were about to take the next step to being elite.

546
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: They are a good defense, no doubt about it. Those

547
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: statue were just reading says they are a good defense

548
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,159
Speaker 1: and they're winning games. That's so there are no complaints here.

549
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: I'm not saying by any means there's a problem with

550
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: the defense. The problem is with me. The problem is

551
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 1: I created these expectations. You know, that's not usually sh

552
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 1: goes like you make the expectation and you hold somebody

553
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,680
Speaker 1: else to your about so many turnovers there in training

554
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 1: camp and that always happens, and they did it. They

555
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 1: did it during training camp, and I thought that was

556
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: a sign that this secondary is really ready to take

557
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: that next step. And Xavier Woods had that opportunity yesterday.

558
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: I was I really thought he had that pick and

559
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: that's the kind of pick he was making in training

560
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 1: camp that again he didn't make yesterday. So I understand

561
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 1: the expectations part. I don't think the defense is bad.

562
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 1: I just think expectation wise, they're not living up to

563
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: what we thought they were going to be. Two games,

564
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 1: that's the other players, just two games. It's a long season.

565
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: Our view in the FedEx press box is terrible and

566
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 1: you know, we're behind the end zone. So like you

567
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 1: don't have good death perception, you can't really tell. But

568
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: one thing that you can see really clearly is angles

569
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 1: on passing plays. And man, I mean I thought Jeff

570
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: Heath was going to the house. I mean the way

571
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 1: he broke from his spot on the route. I was like,

572
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 1: he sees it, he's housing this thing, and then it

573
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 1: just clanged off his dome. I was like, well, what

574
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 1: I you know, sitting back here, I saw it perfectly,

575
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 1: like I think he was just and he saw it too.

576
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: It's like I think he was. I think he was

577
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,960
Speaker 1: worried more about the receiver than the ball, which and

578
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 1: I've never coached safety. Maybe that's what he should have

579
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,479
Speaker 1: been doing. Maybe it's not, but I thought he had

580
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,719
Speaker 1: a touchdown and he did. You know. You know, um,

581
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 1: it's the second straight game now where the you know,

582
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 1: teams have scored kind of late in the game. But

583
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: you know, if you're old enough to remember, the Cowboys

584
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: played a game that still gets talked about a lot

585
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 1: back in two thousand and five against the Red where

586
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 1: they were dominating thirteen to nothing with five minutes to

587
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,640
Speaker 1: go in the game, and the only way that you're

588
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: going to lose the game is if you give up

589
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: deep balls. Santana Moss got two of them. They won

590
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: the game. And that's the only way that the Redskins

591
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: or the Giants are going to come back is if

592
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: they score quickly. So thirty one to fourteen, yeah, you're

593
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: not gonna give up a deep ball. So you're gonna

594
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 1: have to work with the clock and just we're gonna

595
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 1: give you everything underneath. The Giants took it last week,

596
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 1: the Redskins took it. Yeah, it doesn't look good for

597
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 1: your fantasy defense or whatever. It looks good for the scoring,

598
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: but it's the way to win the game is we've

599
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 1: got this lead and we're just gonna choke you out

600
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 1: with it with the clock because we got the clock,

601
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: and so you can go score, but you're not gonna

602
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 1: do it again. They you know, they need to pressure

603
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 1: the quarterback better if they're going to be a lad.

604
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: They definitely need to get takeaways. But I mean, so

605
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: you spent okay, they got once like last week, once

606
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 1: like this week. We spend so much time talking about

607
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 1: how much talent there was in the defensive line and

608
00:28:56,120 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 1: how much depth, and then this is what we're seeing. Yeah,

609
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: it's I mean, and I you know I haven't I

610
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 1: haven't watched this game back, but I know the Redskins

611
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: were paying a ton of attention to DeMarcus Lawrence. Like

612
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: I said, Malie Collins played a great game yesterday. We

613
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 1: haven't seen the pass rushing aspect of it yet. And

614
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 1: then over on that right side, I think, you know

615
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: you've got Tyrone Crawford, who didn't have much of a

616
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: training camp, although ironically he got the loan sack and

617
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: it was one of the biggest players in the game.

618
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: In my opinion, Dorrence Armstrong looked like he played better yesterday,

619
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 1: but you know, still not just blowing people's socks off.

620
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 1: And then you know, luckily you got Robert Quinn back

621
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: in the building today, who you would hope would be

622
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: able to help with all of this. You know, I'll

623
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: say this though, I think Tank has been a disruptive player. No, no, no,

624
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: Like his stats may not show it, but he's been

625
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: a player that even when they're paying a lot of

626
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: attention to him, which they have been, he's still managing

627
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 1: to get to make quarterbacks have to get rid of

628
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: the ball, getting opportunities to get in their face and

629
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: affect the play. So I think I think DeMarcus is

630
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: playing fine. I think there are probably a lot of

631
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:00,960
Speaker 1: other guys on this d fince out of playing fine.

632
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 1: They're just not making those big plays. They're not turning

633
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: that into a sack or turning it into a forced

634
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: fumble and a fumble recover him. Tell him what Tyrone

635
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 1: told you? Yeah, I mean, And I went back and

636
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 1: watched it and I was asking him about the play.

637
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 1: I thought. I agreed, Dave. I think it was the

638
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: play of the game, and maybe a couple of plays

639
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 1: before that. The penalty that Malie Collins drew. It was

640
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 1: first and five and then seven nothing they're driving, you know,

641
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 1: and then get a holding penalty, and then that took

642
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: him back. The sack though on Crawford was not just

643
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 1: a stunt inside. But I mean DeMarcus Lawrence went inside

644
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: and just blasted Brandon sheriff Sheriff just like as hard

645
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 1: as he could, just to take the whole thing inside

646
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: and created a huge lane for him Tyrone to just

647
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 1: loop over. So and afterwards I tried to talk to

648
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 1: Tyrone and he didn't really want to talk, but he

649
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: was like I think he kind of got banged up

650
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 1: a little bit too, but he said d Law made

651
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 1: the play, and then d Law was right there. It's like, yeah,

652
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 1: I did you know what I mean? And he did?

653
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: You know he made I went back and watched it

654
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 1: and it's it was just one of those like all right,

655
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take you three out and it'll create a lane.

656
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: Just like we talked on the offensive side of the

657
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 1: ball about hey, do you want to double team me?

658
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: That's fine. It's the same on defense too, and it's

659
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: it's hard to do that because these guys get judged

660
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: by sacks. Yeah, so, but that's that's made a play.

661
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 1: That's a tough position because even on offensive line, like

662
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 1: you're not watching that every play, but typically like if

663
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: you're not noticing a guy, he's probably playing adequately, if

664
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: not really well on you know, if you're a pass rusher,

665
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 1: you could make a play like that as DeMarcus Lawrence

666
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: open it up for your boy to get a sack.

667
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: And nobody's talking about that. Or again, Malie Collins drawing

668
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 1: a holding penalty, it doesn't register. I think they can

669
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 1: play better, don't get me wrong, Like I'm not completely

670
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 1: absolving them, but there's silent stats there that don't show

671
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 1: up on the box score or in your memory of

672
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: watching the game, Like they're not playing poorly. And again,

673
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: what I was gonna say a g is give me

674
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty five yards and twenty one points

675
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 1: all day. Like you will win a lot of football

676
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 1: game allowing him, especially with this offense. Yeah, especially if

677
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 1: your offense is do I mean, you'll win every game

678
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: if your offense is doing that, So win them all.

679
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 1: Who on the on the offensive side of the ball.

680
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 1: The one guy we never talked about, but he's probably

681
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,959
Speaker 1: playing as well as anybody. We just don't never talk

682
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 1: about him, is who offense? A lineman? Yeah, it's probably

683
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: probably Tyring Smith. Yeah, yeah, just doesn't you just take

684
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: that for grant? You do you do on defense? There's

685
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 1: a guy too that we're not ever talking about. It

686
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: never doesn't really anything because he's just locking his guy down. Yeah,

687
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 1: I mean Cheetle. I mean once again, I mean they

688
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: tested Byron a little bit. I don't did they even

689
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: test Cheetle that much? He gave up. He gave up

690
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 1: that one ball to Eli. I'm talking last week. He

691
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: gave and it was a perfectly placed ball. Just tough break.

692
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 1: And other than that, I mean, I couldn't tell you

693
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 1: for sure that he's given up and we realize at all.

694
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 1: And of course he got a lot of headlines with

695
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 1: speed and all, you know, which is good too because

696
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 1: you know, okay, we're not testing him. It feel like

697
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 1: to me yesterday the Reskin say we're going to test

698
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 1: Byron Jones and and so that was which on the

699
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,080
Speaker 1: way they went at it, that goes you know, watching

700
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: the game, you're like, oh, man, another throw at Byron,

701
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: like he's really kind of struggling. And I come in

702
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 1: today and Brian's watched the tape and he was like, oh,

703
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: Byron was great. Yeah, Byron he did. He played well.

704
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 1: The play he made I think he tackled Paul richardson

705
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 1: a third down. It wasn't his man. He came off

706
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 1: of a rub and and just dominated the receiver to

707
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: keep him sure of the sticks. It was a fantastic play. Now,

708
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 1: he played well, And that's that's the thing you gotta love,

709
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: is that if they tested him, I think he passed

710
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 1: the test. And now we'll see in the future weeks,

711
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: maybe not this week, but a week after that, we'll

712
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: start to see our our offense is gonna say, okay,

713
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: do we just kind of go with whoever? Because there's

714
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 1: not a clear distinction between these two cornerbacks. They're both

715
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, I think I'm I give him a

716
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: solid bee through the first two weeks because I don't

717
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: don't think either one of these teams is going to

718
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,719
Speaker 1: compete for a playoff spot, So you have to keep

719
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 1: that in mind. But I mean nitpicking to find things

720
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: that that terribly, terribly concern me. But I will be

721
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: interested to see him play some better offenses. Go ahead

722
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: and take a break. When we come back. We still

723
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 1: need to talk about Taco Charlton and what's going on

724

770
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 1: we don't have much time talking. Cowboys threw us off

771
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,919
Speaker 1: a little bit, but old men yell at clouds. Yeah,

772
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 1: and Brian and Mickey we're getting into it right before

773
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 1: they needed to end the show. I'm shock I missed

774
00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 1: that way? Did I miss that? Better be care full?

775
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 1: Why I'm kid so dumb? Okay, you're saying stop Robert

776
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 1: Quinn coming back. You said Dave that he's back in

777
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,440
Speaker 1: the building. Um, I don't. I don't know that he

778
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 1: like I haven't seen him, but he I just would

779
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: think in the Monday is not the off day anymore.

780
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 1: Players are here getting rehab and doing meetings and stuff.

781
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 1: Robert Quinn's suspension is over. It stands excited. It stands

782
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: to reason that he's here. But I have not laid

783
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: eyes on him myself. Now, keep in mind, this is

784
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 1: a guy that hasn't practiced for a while. Prior to

785
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 1: the suspension. He had the whole hand injury back at

786
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 1: training camp, so it's been a while since he's been

787
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 1: out on the field doing some things. What is the

788
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 1: expectation that the Cowboys are going to do here as

789
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:48,320
Speaker 1: far as the roster moves. Taco Charlton healthy scratch for

790
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 1: two weeks, but they've kept him inactive both times. Is

791
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 1: this the assumption that that might happen? They have they

792
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 1: have until Wednesday, They have a roster exemption, so they

793
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 1: don't have to make a move until they start practicing

794
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 1: for real. And we said all along that this stuff

795
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,240
Speaker 1: would kind of work itself out, you know, maybe somebody

796
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,879
Speaker 1: might get hurt or not play well. And I don't

797
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 1: think it has really worked itself out because even though

798
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: Antoine Woods is hurt, he's not banged up to the

799
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: point where it would be a roster spot there. So

800
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 1: it hasn't worked itself out. But I don't know this.

801
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 1: I mean, we've heard that there's trade rumors with Tacco,

802
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: but there's I mean, Dorian's Armstrong hasn't done enough where

803
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 1: you wouldn't just you couldn't just play Tacco this week,

804
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 1: you know. In fact, he hasn't done really much of anything,

805
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 1: so I would I would think that if you wanted

806
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,359
Speaker 1: to play Tacco you could. I think there's something else

807
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: going on here where they're not trying to get him

808
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:44,320
Speaker 1: hurt or whatever. I think I think this week to

809
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: answer the question, I think he is not on the

810
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 1: team this week that like after you know, wins D

811
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,800
Speaker 1: or three, you know, I'm I'm I'm with you, like

812
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 1: in the sense that I feel reluctant to say that

813
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 1: because it's a big you know, it's a big thing

814
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 1: to say, to say they're gonna like cut or trade

815
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: a former first round pick. But there's just so much

816
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,319
Speaker 1: writing on the wall, like I don't know, like where

817
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 1: else does it come because you would think it's a

818
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 1: d lineman, Like how many d lineman are you gonna put?

819
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 1: And and there's just so much noise. Like Jerry Jones,

820
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 1: he declined to comment last night about trading Taco, but

821
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 1: even he was like, you know, I know there's speculation

822
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 1: out there about it, so like for him to acknowledge

823
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: that it's everywhere, and then you know, if you want

824
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 1: to take an even deeper dive like Tacos on social

825
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:29,320
Speaker 1: media liking tweets for me and Rappaport about how the

826
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 1: Cowboys are trying to trade him or uh, you know,

827
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: Dayton Jones, who used to play here tweeted like you know,

828
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 1: free my man or whatever, and he like liked that

829
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,760
Speaker 1: and retweeted it or whatever, like it's I feel stupid

830
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: even talking about it. But funny how he'll get traded

831
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: to like the Dolphins or something like that. You know,

832
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 1: that's not freedom, I just something, Yeah, I wont like

833
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 1: is that Is that relationship fixable at this point? Because

834
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: it seemed like the Cowboys seemed done with him and

835
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 1: he doesn't seem super int and being here anymore either,

836
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: And so are you really gonna not that? And we

837
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:06,360
Speaker 1: said last week like, I don't think it's gonna like

838
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:08,919
Speaker 1: derail the locker room or anything, but it's just kind

839
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 1: of it's just kind of hanging there in this awkward space.

840
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 1: So at some point, don't you just rip the band

841
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 1: aid off and do something about it? Well, yeah, I

842
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: think if you're in a situation where you think it's

843
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: clear that the player doesn't want to be here, if

844
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: you think you're at that point and the team is

845
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,359
Speaker 1: not going to really find a role that's suitable for him,

846
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: then yeah, I think you just need to for the

847
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: sake of your locker room and not having just a

848
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: malcontent because I think that's one of the biggest dividers

849
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:41,760
Speaker 1: and problem causers for groups is a person that's a malcontent,

850
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,240
Speaker 1: a person that just isn't happy with their current station.

851
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 1: So if he is to that point and you don't

852
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 1: feel like it's salvageable, I think you do it quickly.

853
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: So you don't allow that because young guys are impressionable,

854
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,839
Speaker 1: and all it takes is the wrong person in their ear.

855
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 1: So you see that, you see that, you see why

856
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 1: they did that, You see that, and all of a sudden,

857
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,320
Speaker 1: you got this this malcontents starting to grow among different

858
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,040
Speaker 1: players in the in the room, which I'm sure they

859
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 1: would prefer to trade him. I'm sure they've tried. But again,

860
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 1: like with there's so much writing on the wall, like

861
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 1: what what would another team be willing to give up?

862
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: If anything? And the answer might be nothing, And so

863
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: are you willing to cut your losses and eat the money? Nothing?

864
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 1: It's you got? You mean, you have to eat the contract.

865
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,279
Speaker 1: You have to deal with the embarrassment of cutting a

866
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 1: first round pick in its third year. I mean, that's

867
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,960
Speaker 1: not a good look for anybody. Say you'll get nothing,

868
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 1: but yeah, you do. You get nothing. But you might

869
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 1: have to just suck it up and make that decision. Unless,

870
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 1: unless you're prepared to put him out there on game

871
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,960
Speaker 1: day and try to sale you could play that same

872
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: drop for him being out there. I mean they really

873
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 1: haven't gotten anything. Now. Is there any other guy that

874
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 1: you could think of that maybe they would decide to

875
00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,800
Speaker 1: make that roster move with. Yeah, I think Von is

876
00:41:57,840 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: a guy that you have to consider, right, Yeah, once

877
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,239
Speaker 1: those other two safeties of health, yeah, Cavan, and then

878
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 1: you've got some I mean, just you don't need Adam Redman.

879
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 1: You just don't need him on the team. I mean

880
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,240
Speaker 1: I don't think you do. I mean you've got backup

881
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,399
Speaker 1: guard and to a filough, you got backup guard center

882
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:15,879
Speaker 1: and Joe Luney got a backup guard tackle in Brandon Knight. Yeah,

883
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 1: I mean backups do you really need? I mean, he's

884
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,320
Speaker 1: a backup center, but he would be your third center

885
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: and guard. I just they like him, obviously, they don't

886
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,359
Speaker 1: really want to let him go. But I just don't

887
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: know if you need that much depth. What if you

888
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 1: feel more confident that he could develop into a player

889
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 1: who can help you down the road, which that's that

890
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,760
Speaker 1: would be an embarrassing thing. I locked up Lyle Collins,

891
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:42,280
Speaker 1: Zach Martin, Yeah, Tyran Smith, I mean Connor is pretty

892
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 1: much I mean, forgot about him. Yeah, he's not doing

893
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: anything right now, but you got him for Yeah. I mean,

894
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,760
Speaker 1: it's hard to think there's a place on the offensive

895
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 1: life for you to be worried too much about the

896
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:55,799
Speaker 1: immediate future. I should say, I'm and I'm talking three

897
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 1: to four years. There are several other places where you

898
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 1: could get that roster spot, and maybe they will. But again,

899
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:05,000
Speaker 1: like it just feels awkward, like you don't feel good

900
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 1: enough about him to put him out there when he's

901
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 1: healthy and he is not giving the impression that he's

902
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,760
Speaker 1: thrilled about being here, and so how they're not thrilled

903
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: about not playing YEAD receiver wide receivers one now that

904
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 1: you're I mean, I didn't even think about that. We're

905
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:24,520
Speaker 1: just fine with with Cedric Wilson. Yeah, that's honest. That's

906
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 1: the easiest fix of all. I didn't even think about that.

907
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,799
Speaker 1: Or they just keep Cedric Wilson, it could, I mean,

908
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:33,360
Speaker 1: and let the most also got to see what's happening

909
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: with Gallup right that that that's happening with Gallup, See

910
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,279
Speaker 1: what's happening with Tavon. The most surprised I was all

911
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 1: of yesterday was when they sent Cedric Wilson out there

912
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,399
Speaker 1: on like the ten yard line. They hadn't been playing well.

913
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,120
Speaker 1: The game was very much in doubt. I was just like, please, God, man,

914
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 1: I'm freaking out, like I don't I'm not, you know,

915
00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 1: like I'm not worried, no offense to anybody. I'm not

916
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,360
Speaker 1: worried about it from the Cowboys standpoint, like they'll be fine.

917
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 1: But I'm just like, Cedric Wilson is gonna just bepublican,

918
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:06,759
Speaker 1: I mean number one, and this is going to be bad.

919
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: He didn't when he caught that thing. I was just like,

920
00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 1: thank god, Cedric, I'm so I'm so happy for you.

921
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,360
Speaker 1: I didn't want to see it all in like that.

922
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 1: I did not. All Right, Well, that is all the

923
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:21,399
Speaker 1: time we've got for today. Thank you guys so much

924

925
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 1: these guys are gonna talk about, but I'm sure it's

926

928
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 1: freaking amazing DMPA fans that were there, and how loud

929
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: they were, and especially the part where they were basically

930
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,319
Speaker 1: singing to the Ridskins fans to leave as the game

931
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 1: was my buddy, a buddy of mine, big Ohio State fans,

932
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,760
Speaker 1: So naturally he was interested in the Devin Smith touchdown.

933
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 1: So he went back and watched it and texted me

934
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 1: and was like it sounds like a home game, Like
