17
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 4: at the Star. Got the crew with me today. It's

18
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 4: our Gumbo show on Tuesday. We got a lot of

19
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 4: things we're gonna throw into this. We're gonna talk about

20
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 4: the NFC East, We got a little news. We'll get

21
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 4: to talk a little bit about Michael Gallup and what

22
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 4: he's shown so far this season and where we are

23
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 4: with that. Also, we're going to try to get into

24
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 4: the run offense and what the Cowboys have been able

25
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 4: to do on the ground and if we think that's

26
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 4: enough or will they need more from their running backs

27
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 4: and their running game as the season wears on. We

28
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 4: got a segment of lab Coat with No C. So

29
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 4: we got a lot of stuff. We're going to hit

30
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 4: a lot of different things, a lot of different topics

31
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,039
Speaker 4: in this show. So let's get it going. Let's start

32
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 4: first with little news. Yesterday Cowboys announced that they have

33
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 4: released Ronald Jones. Any surprise with that move or was

34
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 4: that kind of expected that after he came off the

35
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 4: suspension that the Cowboys would move on.

36
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 7: I was expecting it actually prior to them just moving

37
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 7: him to the reserve suspended list. We talked about it

38
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 7: at training camp, and you know, the more training camp

39
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 7: went on in preseason and then Ronald Jones gets the

40
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 7: two game suspension and then he suffers the growing injury

41
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 7: that basically deletes his entire preseason participation. In the meantime,

42
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 7: you had guys like Hunter Lipke, Deucevon, these younger guys

43
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 7: stepping up, Malite Davis who earned a spot on the

44
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 7: practice squad, Rico Dowdo stepping into the RB two row.

45
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 7: Question was where do Rojo fit? And I could not

46
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 7: figure out where he fit. I figured they would just

47
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 7: go ahead and let it go. Maybe they held onto

48
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 7: him for that two week period as insurance against injury

49
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 7: or whatever the.

50
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 3: Case may be. But here we are. Two weeks has passed.

51
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 3: He's now eligible to be activated.

52
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 7: But instead of doing that, which would have cost him

53
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 7: a roster spot, they would have had to release or

54
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 7: waive someone. They just want to hit him parted ways. Now,

55
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 7: I will say that doesn't you know, preclude him from

56
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 7: possibly circling back and being a practice squad guy alongside

57
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 7: Malik Davis. Because he's vested, he's not subject to waivers.

58
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 7: He can sign with whomever he want effective today. So

59
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 7: I don't know that the options off the table, but

60
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 7: as it stands, yeah, Rojo is a free agent.

61
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. I felt like that he was going to be

62
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 2: a guy. That he was going to be a bridge

63
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 2: player is what he was going to be. And he

64
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 2: was going to be much like what a dooga was.

65
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 2: And so you know, I was thinking, Okay, veteran guys

66
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 2: kind of this is Will's way of protecting himself. I

67
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: like the way he does this. I wish I would

68
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: have done it along time ago myself. But you know,

69
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 2: you find ways to say, Okay, we got young players

70
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 2: we want to look at, but I got to keep

71
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 2: a veteran player over here, and he keeps him for

72
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 2: a low salary and all that. In case something happens

73
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: where it doesn't work out that way, you're kind of

74
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 2: the coaches can go to their guy if they feel

75
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 2: like you'ren't forcing a young guy on them. You're saying, hey,

76
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 2: I got a veteran guy here. It's played a lot

77
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 2: of snaps. If things don't work out with our young guys,

78
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 2: we can do it. I've been told he's not going

79
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 2: to be on the practice squad, so that that you know.

80
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 2: I know, so he's going to be out there for

81
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 2: anybody else. Maybe he appears on the Cowboys emergency board

82
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 2: down the road if something happens, he knows the scheme

83
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 2: and all that stuff like that. But you know, it

84
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 2: was just like I say, it was a veteran move

85
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: to protect the young players. They found out the young

86
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: players can play a little bit, so they don't need

87
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 2: Ronald Jones anymore.

88
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 8: It's unfortunate, especially if what he said at training camp

89
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 8: was true, and just a reminder he violated the what

90
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 8: do you call that.

91
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 3: Enhancement policy on performance enhancement.

92
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 8: Performance enhancement, and what he said at training camp was

93
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 8: basically he was taking some medication that was prescribed by

94
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 8: his doctor for his heart and it pop up in

95
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 8: the test. So he wasn't aware that whatever chemical was

96
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 8: in there was going to show up as that. So

97
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 8: in those instances and he was pretty upset, and he

98
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 8: said he tried to fight it. So when you hear

99
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 8: something like that, obviously you feel bad. If that's the

100
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 8: true story, it sucks. But it's just the nature of

101
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 8: this business and how things go down. And these younger

102
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 8: guys were able to take advantage of every single snap

103
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 8: and opportunity. And here there are there, everybody is at

104
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 8: a good spot for the backs that they currently have.

105
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 8: So it is what it is. I wish him well

106
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,359
Speaker 8: and we'll see if he ever, I mean, if he

107
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 8: lands back on here or not.

108
00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

109
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 4: Tough thing for him is that coming off a year

110
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 4: last year where the Chiefs brought him in and hopes

111
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 4: that he could be a player for them, and he

112
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 4: ends up near the bottom of their depth chart, and

113
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 4: then he comes to the Cowboys and two weeks in

114
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 4: the season he's no longer on the team.

115
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 9: That doesn't bode well for him.

116
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 4: But right now there are two teams, particularly the Giants

117
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 4: in the Browns, who've lost their running backs at least

118
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,359
Speaker 4: for a short period of time in the case of

119
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 4: the Giants. For the Browns, probably for the season, and

120
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 4: so it could create some opportunity for him if they

121
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 4: see him as a guy that, as you said before, Brian,

122
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 4: that bridge type veteran player, maybe he could be that

123
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 4: for them and maybe get some burned there.

124
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 2: You know. The one lesson you should learn if you're

125
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 2: a player is that if you're taking any kind of medication,

126
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 2: these trainers know, and maybe if you get something new,

127
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,479
Speaker 2: you walk into the training room and you go to

128
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 2: your trainer and say, they prescribed this for my medicine,

129
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 2: and then the trainer then has the knowledge to be

130
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 2: able to say, well, let's look up what's in this medication.

131
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 2: You know, there's really it always is confounding to me

132
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 2: when these players say, well, I was taking this, and

133
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 2: these players know exactly, they know what they're eating, they

134
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 2: know what they're you know, they know what they're there's

135
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 2: how their workouts go, everything about what's going into their body.

136
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 2: The most of them do. And it's just unfortunate because

137
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 2: it's very simple. These trainers and doctors will help you

138
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 2: like you can't take that because it has the Senate

139
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 2: and then it just eliminates any problems that you might

140
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 2: have going forward. I mean, he lost an opportunity potentially,

141
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 2: you know, for two weeks, you know, to compete and

142
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,919
Speaker 2: have an opportunity. We'll see, but it's unfortunate that you

143
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 2: just it's very simple, walk in there, hand the prescriptions

144
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 2: to your trainers, your doctors and say hey, can I

145
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 2: take this? Is this going to be a problem.

146
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, And what Ronald was saying was in his explanation

147
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 7: after the suspension landed and after the appeal failed, was

148
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 7: that this was whatever it was that he was taking

149
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 7: for his heart because of a congenital you know, family is.

150
00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 3: Sure with heart issues.

151
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 7: He said that he had been taking it for years

152
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 7: for the totality of his career, So could have been

153
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 7: a situation, again we don't know all the details, but

154
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 7: could have been a situation where he felt like if

155
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 7: it wasn't a problem with his previous teams before now,

156
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 7: it wasn't a problem with the league before now, he

157
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 7: wasn't expecting that it will pop up and be a

158
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 7: problem now. So, like you said, Ambar, I mean, we

159
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 7: have both sides of the story. We don't know which

160
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 7: side of that story is actually the truth. But if

161
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 7: it is as he says it is, then you know,

162
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 7: Brian's not wrong in that you still need to present

163
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 7: this information to the trainers for your new team so

164
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 7: that you guys can be on the same accord so

165
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 7: they're not blindsided.

166
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,679
Speaker 3: You're not blindsided. They can double check with the league.

167
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 7: But from his standpoint, I could see how he assumed

168
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 7: probably should not have if he did. I could see

169
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 7: how he would have assumed because he's not a first, second,

170
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 7: third year guy.

171
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 3: I mean, he's not a thirty year old. He's twenty six.

172
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 7: But I mean if he's been taking it since he

173
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 7: joined been in since he's been in the league and

174
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 7: there's not been a problem, it's not popular test.

175
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 3: I could see his frustration in surprise to it. Yeah.

176
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 4: Tough thing is these guys can't approach healthcare the way

177
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 4: the rest of us do. Now get them Scott from

178
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 4: your doc just to assume you're good. Yeah, but they

179
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 4: live in a world where there's there's this kind of

180
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 4: testing and you have to be aware of it because

181
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 4: you're putting millions of dollars at risk if you don't

182
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 4: pass the test that the NFL puts out there.

183
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 2: You know, what they're in a situation too where they're

184
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 2: you know, they give these guys physicals. Hell, they gave

185
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 2: the scouts physicals. I mean the doctors know, they ask

186
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 2: you what medications that we've all gone to the doctor,

187
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 2: what medications you take? You know, they want to know

188
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 2: if you're going in for surgery, they want to know

189
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 2: what medications you take. So that's the unfortunate side of it,

190
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 2: if you know, if it's a fact, it's a veteran

191
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 2: thing and he's been taking it all along. And you know,

192
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 2: with the league, I think they're very specific about what

193
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 2: you can and cannot take. You know. That's that's something

194
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 2: that I mean, I've seen documentation of just thousands of

195
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: these prescriptions that appeared that just were like, okay, you

196
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 2: can't this that you know, And I don't know, it's

197
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 2: just it's unfortunate for him that you know, but maybe,

198
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 2: like I say, he knows better now that maybe with

199
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 2: the next team. And you mentioned there are a couple

200
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 2: of teams that are looking for running.

201
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 4: All right, let's jump into a little conversation on the

202
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,559
Speaker 4: NFC East interesting division as it was last year. Right now,

203
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 4: there are three teams that are two and oh Cowboys,

204
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 4: Philadelphia and Washington all two and oh New York is

205
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 4: one and one. Only lost in the division is to

206
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 4: a division opponent. So obviously, in early parts of the season,

207
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 4: looking like this will be just as tough of a

208
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 4: division as it was last year. All that being said,

209
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 4: what stands out to you most about this division at

210
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 4: this point through.

211
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 7: Two weeks in Jalen Hurts the struggles. I feel like

212
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 7: you went straight for the throat. I'm going straight for

213
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 7: the throat. We're not wasting any time.

214
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,599
Speaker 8: Not the title of the podcast. Yeah, we'll get a

215
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 8: guess engagement on.

216
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm ninety percent confident that Jalen Hurts is

217
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 7: going to continue to struggle. But it really is a

218
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 7: situation where you look back at RG three's breakout year

219
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 7: as a rookie and what he was able to do,

220
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 7: and a lot of times when you have these particularly

221
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 7: these running quarterbacks who dominate in any particular year, Jalen

222
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 7: Hurts had a breakout season which was largely predicated on

223
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 7: his ability to run. And the offseason to follow the

224
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 7: film is out right, So now teams have an entire

225
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 7: off season of your film to dictate and pick it apart.

226
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 3: So then when you come into the.

227
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 7: Next season, the expectation within your organization it's probably that

228
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 7: you'll be able to replicate that. But that's not often

229
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 7: the case, especially in a league that's dominated by parody.

230
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 3: So when you see Jalen Hurts.

231
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 7: Who rarely turn the ball over over the entirety of

232
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 7: twenty twenty two, struggle to not turn the ball over

233
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 7: over the first two games, you start to wonder to yourself, well,

234
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 7: have teams figured him out? And then you start looking

235
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 7: at the personnel around the NFC East, and you land

236
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 7: squarely on the Cowboys defense, and you say, well, it's

237
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,959
Speaker 7: one thing to have a blueprint, but it's another thing

238
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,079
Speaker 7: to have the blueprint and the personnel. Okay, well, it's

239
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 7: another thing to have the blueprint, the personnel, and the maestro.

240
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 3: To be able to put all of that together.

241
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 7: Could this be a situation where when the Cowboys go

242
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 7: up against Jalen Hurts, they end up getting a multiple

243
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 7: takeaway game. I think that could be the case. And

244
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 7: I think the Cowboys the speed at linebacker Lv's playing

245
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,199
Speaker 7: here on fire de Mont Clark, that speed Marquise Bell

246
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 7: is helping there. Donovan Wilson is ready to come back.

247
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 7: So for me, it's the Eagles. I mean, I don't

248
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 7: they should not apologize for the victory over the Vikings,

249
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 7: but let's be honest, the Vikings gave that game away.

250
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 7: I haven't seen the Eagles play yet between those two

251
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 7: games in a way that impresses me to say, oh, yeah,

252
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 7: that's a Super Bowl contender. I'm not saying they're not.

253
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 7: But nothing floors me about the Eagles just year.

254
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 4: The one thing I will say real quick, I don't

255
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 4: think I don't think it's I think it's too early

256
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 4: in the season for me to make any declarations about

257
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,839
Speaker 4: really any offense in the league, because I think right

258
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 4: now what you're seeing is a lot of subpar football.

259
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 4: When it comes to the offensive side of the ball.

260
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 4: I think the defense is are far ahead of the offense.

261
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 4: I think it's a reflection of the fact that a

262
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 4: lot of teams aren't playing their starters a lot during

263
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 4: the preseason, and I think that's the workthrough of this,

264
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 4: and you go back and look at the numbers, I

265
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 4: think it would probably bear out that in the first three,

266
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,959
Speaker 4: four five weeks of the season of these usually aren't

267
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 4: just kind of clicking in the way that they normally

268
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 4: do like people making all these same declarations, similar declarations

269
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 4: about the Kansas City Chiefs. It's just it's early, I think,

270
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 4: I think, right, I think that's just I think that's

271
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 4: just the nature of NFL football.

272
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 9: Takes a litle while for him to get going. But

273
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 9: they're going to get going.

274
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,079
Speaker 4: And I have no doubts Jalen Hurts and the Eagles

275
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 4: are going to be formidable when it comes it off

276
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 4: inside of the ball, because that's just what they do.

277
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 2: Boy, Brian, Yeah, the Commanders might have found a quarterback

278
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 2: in Sam how and they've got there two and oh

279
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 2: right now, and both their victories, Yeah, they're against Arizona

280
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 2: and Denver. Both games they had to come back in

281
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 2: and you got it as your team. We saw what

282
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 2: happened last year with the Giants and with Brian Dayball

283
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,839
Speaker 2: and what they came in. They had a Week one

284
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 2: victory and where he went for a two point play

285
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 2: with for the to go for the victory and it

286
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 2: kind of set the tone for their season. Yeah, they

287
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 2: sputtered a little bit, you know, down the stretch, but

288
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 2: they got into the playoffs. The thing with the Commanders,

289
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 2: I've always felt like that they've got really good skilled

290
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 2: players with Terry McLaurin and others, you know, with Robinson

291
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 2: running the ball and stuff like that. They've got some

292
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 2: legitimate weapons, Logan Thomas at tight end. They've got a

293
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 2: really good defense. We saw first hand with the Cowboys

294
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 2: in that final game what that front can do to you,

295
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 2: how they can control the game. So the Commanders at

296
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 2: to and zero it is, it's they're off to a

297
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 2: grade start. Both victories coming back, both come back victories.

298
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 2: The one in Denver I think was pretty impressive. I

299
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 2: know Sean Payton's trying to do a lot of things

300
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: get that thing going. But the Commanders might have found

301
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 2: them a quarterback in sam.

302
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 3: How, which is what they really need.

303
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 4: They get a quarterback how it gets really interesting watch

304
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 4: because they got the defense.

305
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 3: For sure.

306
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 8: I think we're already used to the NFCS having this

307
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 8: type of competition a year after year and coming down

308
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 8: to the last month of the year in December and

309
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 8: what happens there and maybe but maybe I'm biased, Sorry

310
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 8: sue me, but I just feel like the Cowboys they're

311
00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,080
Speaker 8: different this year.

312
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 9: Like if we were.

313
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 8: Talking about it the other day or yesterday, it's just

314
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 8: something about it completely feels completely different. Granted we're not

315
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 8: in Philadelphia around the players, we're not in Washington around

316
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 8: them either, but it's just even just watching them play.

317
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 8: So like, look at the defense, the Cowboys defense, the

318
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 8: energy that they have. I think whenever they face the

319
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 8: Commanders or the Eagles, they're gonna they're gonna win. They're

320
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 8: gonna win, They're gonna it's always a struggle. I get

321
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 8: it when they face an division opponent and all that,

322
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 8: but just the whole energy, they're themeanor everything is just

323
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 8: working right and unless some type of crazy and yeah,

324
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 8: knock on everything you can, but some crazy type of

325
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 8: injury that would ruin your whole season basically, then you're screwed.

326
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 8: And it happens to other teams. But otherwise, everything about

327
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 8: the Cowboys right now just seems right, feels right, and

328
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 8: feels completely different than the year before, and the year

329
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 8: prior and the year since I started working here.

330
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 2: It's just it.

331
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 8: Feels and I don't want to get there. I don't

332
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 8: want to say it this early on Week two, but

333
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 8: it just feels like they have everything they need to compete.

334
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 3: Well.

335
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 7: My main declaration is that the Eagles remain the top

336
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 7: contender against the Cowboys. As far as taking the NFC East,

337
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 7: I like the strides that the Commanders are taken with

338
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 7: Sam Howe. I don't have much to say about the

339
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 7: Giants right now because you know forty ZI. Congratulations to

340
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 7: them for coming mount and that comeback against the Arizona Cardinals,

341
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 7: But then you lose Saquon Barkley. What does that offense

342
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 7: look like without Saquon Barkley going forward? So for me,

343
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 7: it is going to go down to the Cowboys versus

344
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 7: the Eagles. But there were questions going into this season, well,

345
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 7: where do the Cowboys stack up against the Eagles and

346
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 7: the forty nine ers. Well, we'll find out in a

347
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 7: few weeks where they stack up against the forty nine ers.

348
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 7: Forty nine ers still look fantastic, okay, but the forty

349
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 7: nine ers feel like it feels like there is a

350
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 7: bigger gap between the forty nine ers and the Eagles.

351
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 7: Then there is the forty nine Ers and the Cowboys,

352
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 7: which to me means the Cowboys are ahead of the

353
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 7: Eagles right now, even if you say it's because the

354
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 7: Cowboys have the best defense, definitely in the NFC East,

355
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 7: likely in the NFC.

356
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 3: Arguably in the entire league.

357
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 7: So right now my declaration is going into Week three,

358
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 7: the Cowboys have the lead on the Eagles, but those

359
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 7: are still the two teams to watch to take the

360
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 7: thrown in the NFCS.

361
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 2: Would you pick the Cowboys over the forty nine Ers

362
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 2: right now in a game.

363
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 8: When they face each other, I'm definitely picking the Cowboys

364
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 8: for sure. But and because going back to those games,

365
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 8: you saw the Cowboys being competitive like they even though

366
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 8: they on offense there were struggles there, but it was

367
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 8: still it wasn't a game where they weren't doing absolutely anything.

368
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 7: Because you said injury right why they struggle to get

369
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 7: going against the forty nine ers.

370
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 8: Tony Pollard he came up, going out and all that.

371
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 8: So I think they have the tools and law of

372
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 8: probability it will be the Cowboys turn to beat them

373
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 8: atty soon. So we'll we'll find out.

374
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 3: That'd be Cowboys team beats the forty nine ers.

375
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 4: Brian, you asked that question, and I know you usually

376
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 4: when you asked that question you got a thought in

377
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 4: your head.

378
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,679
Speaker 2: Well, I still, I know we talked about the bully factor,

379
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 2: and I think the Cowboys are starting to become a

380
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 2: bully in this conference. I think the forty nine ers

381
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 2: are a real bully though too. And I think that

382
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 2: you know, what is it you're you know, to beat

383
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 2: the man, you know, or to be the man. You

384
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 2: got to beat the man. I guess that's the saying.

385
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 2: They they come with. You know you talked about Pollard

386
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 2: being out. They they were there. McCaffrey was out for

387
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 2: San Francisco in that game too, he was he was hurt.

388
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 2: So to me, they're they're you're gonna have to prove

389
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 2: to me as as you're gonna have to prove to

390
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 2: me that you can go Santa Clara on a Sunday

391
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 2: night and win a football game.

392
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 3: Is it?

393
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,239
Speaker 2: Is it lining up to wear the right way with

394
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 2: the feel and the talent and the coaching and all that. Sure,

395
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 2: it really does. I have a lot of respect for

396
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 2: that group though out in Santa Clara. I really really do.

397
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,679
Speaker 2: And I feel like though my attitude about it is,

398
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 2: I think you can handle the Philadelphia Eagles that you

399
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 2: handle the Philadelphi Eagles on a yearly basis, you know,

400
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 2: you're either two zero or you split or you know,

401
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 2: it's usually very you know a lot of times one

402
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,919
Speaker 2: of the games yeah, one of the games is an

403
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 2: absolute blowout. You know, usually you'll play me then they

404
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 2: just completely fall apart.

405
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:20,479
Speaker 3: But this is this.

406
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,439
Speaker 2: I think this team at San Francisco is built a

407
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 2: lot like you, And I think that's the thing that

408
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 2: that me that when I watch that win they had

409
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 2: going to Pittsburgh caught my attention. And maybe Pittsburgh's not

410
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 2: any good, but I know Mike Tomlins damn good as

411
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 2: a coach. I think they got a tough team over there,

412
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 2: and the way that forty nine Ers handled them, you know,

413
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 2: and the forty nine Ers were down in the rams,

414
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 2: which is a division opponent, but what they do in

415
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 2: the second half, they found a way to kind of

416
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 2: take over the game. I like their quarterback, I like

417
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,679
Speaker 2: their roster, but your roster is closer to their roster.

418
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 2: So that that's where I was trying to get a gauge.

419
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 2: She's bullish, not more. I'm more of let's see, let's

420
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 2: see you go be a bully and go beat another bully. Yeah,

421
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 2: that's kind of where I'm at with San Francisco going down.

422
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 8: And there are times that i think I'm like, are

423
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 8: we becoming what the Giants are to us? But now

424
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 8: we're the giants to the forty nine ers.

425
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I don't know if it would get

426
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 4: that far because the Cowboys have dominated the Giants for you.

427
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a short short But what.

428
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 4: I will say is I do think mentally there is

429
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 4: something there. You listen to the players talk. They talk

430
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 4: abouts the Cowboys players really think of San Francisco as

431
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 4: a measuring and they should and should you when a

432
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 4: team has beaten you, the put you out of the

433
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 4: playoffs the last two years in a row. If you're

434
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 4: not to me, I don't think you're thinking about it right.

435
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 4: You should be saying that's a target. We want to

436
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 4: have an opportunity to beat them because that shows our progress,

437
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 4: That shows how much better we are. But going to

438
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 4: your point, Brian, like, I look at them too, and

439
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 4: I agree. I think those defenses are equal. And that's

440
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 4: the thing about the Cowboys this year. I think there's

441
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 4: a certain amount of fear that they put into opposing

442
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 4: offenses when they know they have to play the Cowboys.

443
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 4: I think that's one team in San Francisco that won't work.

444
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 4: I don't think there's any amount of fear that the

445
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 4: forty nine ers will have going up against this defense

446
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 4: because by the way, they face the same defense every

447
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 4: day in practice.

448
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 3: Right.

449
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 9: I think it's part of the reasons why you see

450
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 9: this offense, right. I think it's part of the reason

451
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 9: why you saw this offense.

452
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 4: Play the way they did last week is because they

453
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 4: don't go into a game fearing any defense because they

454
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 4: face this defense every day.

455
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 9: So that's where I think those two things, like you said.

456
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 4: Similarly built. And that's going to mean both teams are

457
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 4: going to come in with supreme amounts of confidence. Their

458
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 4: defense have extreme amounts of confidence and their offenses no,

459
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 4: we can do things against really good defenses because we

460
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 4: practice against one every single day.

461
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 2: I think that when we went from ox SNAr to

462
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 2: the start of the season, I know myself, I don't

463
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 2: want to speak for you guys, I had San Francisco, Philadelphia, Dallas, Well,

464
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 2: now I would say I would have San Francisco, Dallas, Philadelphia.

465
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 2: You know, the ranking of how just if you want

466
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 2: the two game sample size and what the teams have done,

467
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 2: you know. I feel like though that it's you're getting

468
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 2: closer to what my thoughts of San Francisco were tremendously high.

469
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 2: I'm thinking like San Francisco is gonna find And you know,

470
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 2: I was in a situation too. You might be thought

471
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 2: that Philadelphia had a little bit more talent, and maybe

472
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 2: because they were division champs that maybe you have to

473
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 2: give them the nod. But Dallas's Dallas's talent, I think

474
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 2: is surpassing what Philadelphia's talent is. But that game in

475
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 2: Santa Clair will tell you how far they really.

476
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 3: Are the Cowboys are.

477
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 7: In my opinion, they're one tick behind the San Francisco

478
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 7: forty nine ers. Like I said earlier, there I have

479
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 7: them above the Eagles now, but one tick. But here's

480
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 7: the tick. What is the unleashed Texas Coast offense look like?

481
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 7: I mean, when it's Brandon Cooks is on the field

482
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 7: and he's cooking, and Ceedee Lamb is cooking, and Jake

483
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 7: and schooling Tyler and the offensive line, you have your

484
00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 7: starting offensive line, Like, what does that look like on

485
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 7: all cylinders? And if it looks like what we think

486
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 7: it can look like, now it's your right there.

487
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:06,919
Speaker 3: Now we're equal.

488
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:08,919
Speaker 7: So then in a few weeks when you go to

489
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,679
Speaker 7: have that game in Santa Clara, Okay, now this is

490
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 7: the real test of who's the best team in the

491
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 7: NFC at that point in the season. Obviously there's still

492
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 7: lots of football that we played after that, but yeah,

493
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 7: I have them just a small tick. But it's because

494
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 7: I don't know yet what the best version of the

495
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 7: Texas Coast offense looks like.

496
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 4: Obviously the team will not be looking ahead, but man,

497
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 4: I'm looking ahead. I cannot wait until Week five. That's

498
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 4: going to be a phenomenal game in Santa.

499
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 8: Clara, what I loved. And we were all standing there

500
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 8: right after the game outside the locker room and talk

501
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 8: about the focus and their mentality right now compared to

502
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 8: last year, where we know at one point they started

503
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 8: getting too bakeheads over here smelling themselves what my grandma, Yeah,

504
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 8: smelling themselves. But you if you just without knowing what

505
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 8: happened in the game, if you were standing there where

506
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 8: we were and watch them going to the locker room,

507
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 8: you would have thought they lost that game. That was

508
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 8: a loss, that was a beat down.

509
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 3: Michael walking into the locker room.

510
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 8: I'm telling you, it's so different. So that tells you,

511
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 8: and that's a good thing. That just tells you how

512
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 8: locked focused they are right now. They're not granted, I mean,

513
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 8: for week one. That was a fun game for everybody.

514
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 8: There was a little energy in there, but it's just

515
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 8: they're staying level, they're staying grounded, and they're really really

516
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 8: aware of what they're going after this year.

517
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 9: All Right, we're gonna take our first break. We'll come back.

518
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,120
Speaker 4: Got a question for you guys about Michael Gallup and

519
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 4: what he's done so far this year. There was a

520
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 4: lot of hope that he would be back to himself,

521
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 4: and I'll get your impressions on what you think where

522

Speaker 4: you think he is well, then when we come.

00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,560

526
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 10: online was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be

527
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 10: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

Speaker 4: the start the segment brought to you by blockchain dot Com.

582
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 4: All right, let's talk about Michael Gallup. I want to

583
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 4: find out what your level of concern is with him,

584
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,479
Speaker 4: because I think in this last game there was an

585
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,919
Speaker 4: expectation that you didn't have Brandon Cooks, and so this

586
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 4: was gonna be the game where we were going to

587
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 4: be able to see I don't know how many times

588
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 4: I heard media people as week sand, this is gonna

589
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:37,159
Speaker 4: be the.

590
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 9: Game we get to see Michael.

591
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 4: We get to see Michael Gallup kind of breakout and

592
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 4: kind of reassume that position as the number two. And

593
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 4: he ended up with a catch for three yards. And

594
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 4: I don't know that the numbers necessarily always say he

595
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 4: did a great had a great game or not, because

596
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 4: quite frankly, he could have been opened a lot more

597
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 4: frequently than he got the ball. But I wanted to

598
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 4: get your level of, well, what your thoughts are right

599
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 4: now on where Michael Gallup is and what you've seen

600
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:01,879
Speaker 4: from him in the first two games this season.

601
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:02,399
Speaker 9: I'll start with you.

602
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 2: Brian Patrick was asked a question this morning from Bobby

603
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 2: Belt that Bobby and I talked about on Love of

604
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 2: the Star podcast yesterday. Is Michael Gallop a round peg

605
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 2: in a square hole because of scheme fit? Now? Is

606
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 2: he a guy that is the precise route runner? Is

607
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 2: he a timing based type of a route runner. Is

608
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 2: he a guy that can does the route tree limit

609
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 2: with what the West Coast offense requires? I think he

610
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 2: could run the slants, some of the end stuff, the

611
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 2: outs that they have. Michael Gallup is kind of a

612
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 2: vertical player to me. You know, he's a guy that

613
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 2: his routes are a little bit deeperilt. It's built more

614
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,919
Speaker 2: on protection, a little bit deeper drop. Maybe not the

615
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 2: ball getting out as quick. You know, there's times where

616
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 2: he doesn't catch the ball completely cleanly. You know, So

617
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 2: maybe that that kind of limits. But this might be

618
00:27:55,760 --> 00:28:00,479
Speaker 2: a situation where he is a guy that it's going

619
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 2: to be a little bit of a struggle for him.

620
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 2: The more you really really dive into how this game

621
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 2: is going to be played, and especially with this offense,

622
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,479
Speaker 2: and so I would love for Michael Gallup to have

623
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 2: a day this week against Arizona where it's six catches

624
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 2: for ninety yards and a touchdown something like that, just

625
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 2: to just to give him a little confidence, but I

626
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 2: believe he might be a guy that's in a it's

627
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,360
Speaker 2: a it's not the cleanest scheme fit for him with

628
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 2: the way that West Coast offense operate, especially when you

629
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 2: watch him with how they run routes and then how

630
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 2: quickly the ball gets out.

631
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, he's become and I hate it for him because

632
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 8: I really do like Michael Gallup and I love him

633
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 8: as a player and as a person, but he he's

634
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 8: just become so unforgettable, like forgetful, like forgettable, and even

635
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 8: at training camp there are times that I would completely

636
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 8: forget get about him. I'm like, oh, yeah that, oh okay,

637
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 8: there's Gallup. He's moving around, okay, and then I forget

638
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 8: about him again. So it happened again, like I barely

639
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 8: even noticed him in this game, and it's just it's

640
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 8: been that way, and now he just feels, just like

641
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 8: Brian said, like he just doesn't feel like he fits

642
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 8: in anymore. And I'm at a point where I personally

643
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 8: want to start seeing even more of a guy like

644
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 8: Jalen Tolbert as part of the offense, and obviously together

645
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 8: with CD and Brandan Cooks, and I want to see

646
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 8: them three and what they can do. But it's just

647
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 8: one of those things that maybe the change in offense

648
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 8: and all that, like everything, Like Brian said, that's what's

649
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 8: kind of making him be left out because right now

650
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 8: he just he hasn't done anything this year or the

651
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 8: off season other than me seeing him being able to

652
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 8: move around pretty well health wise, but other than that

653
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 8: as being part of the he's just faded away slowly.

654
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 7: For me, Well, I'm going to break out a concern meter,

655
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 7: since my meters are provocative and they get the people going.

656
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 7: I was zero percent concerned with Michael Gallup before the

657
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 7: first two games of the season. I put my concern

658
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 7: left with about twenty five percent and good great conversation

659
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 7: with Bobby Sean RJ this morning with that particular question

660
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 7: square peg.

661
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 3: Round hole.

662
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 7: Possibly that's possibly true, but it's too soon to know

663
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 7: if that's the case. We're only two weeks in and

664
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 7: we just talked about how we don't know yet what

665
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 7: the unbridled Texas Coast offense looks like just yet.

666
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 3: Cowboys are still kind of figuring that out.

667
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 7: Didn't have Brandon Cooks on the field last week, so

668
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 7: you know, once Cooks is back on the field, and

669
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 7: let's really start to see two three games in what

670
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 7: it really looks like and how that impacts Michael Gallup. Yes,

671
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 7: he's not going to be He can run the slam,

672
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 7: but he's not the quick separating guy like you would

673
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 7: see Cooks and Turpin and Ceedee Lamb and Duce Vaughan

674
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 7: if you line Duce up in the slot. So he's

675
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 7: not going to be that. But there will come a

676
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 7: time where you will need the downfield threat that matches

677
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 7: the physicality and the violence in which Michael Gallup attacks

678
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 7: that ball when he high points it. You will need

679
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 7: the physicality of Michael Gallup to be able to run

680
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 7: through one or two would be tacklers to get you

681
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 7: that first down. And that's a skill set that really

682
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 7: will come into handy. The question is how many more

683
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 7: games will we see before that happens. And hopefully he

684
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 7: goes out to Arizona and that's his day. It was

685
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 7: Ceedee Lamb's day on Sunday, Maybe this is Gallup's day.

686
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 7: Maybe the next week is Cook's his day, and then

687
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 7: it's Ferguson's day. And that's what Mike McCarthy was talking

688
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 7: about in Every Day Every Week might be another guy's week.

689
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 7: So hopefully Michael Gallups week is coming up soon. But

690
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 7: I think there is reason to have some concern. But

691
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 7: I wouldn't write him off two weeks in. Let's play

692
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 7: some more football. Let's talk about it midway through the season.

693
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 7: See where his impact is versus a Jalen Tobert impact.

694
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 7: Because we talked about in the absence of Cook last

695
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,479
Speaker 7: this past Sunday, we wanted to see Michael Gallup step up,

696
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 7: and Turp.

697
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 3: Step up, and Jaylen Tolbert step up.

698
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 7: Well, none of them really had to. Kassini Lamb took

699
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 7: over the game, but Tolbert impacted the game.

700
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's where that's where I would go

701
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 2: because if you need Gallup to you know, if I

702
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 2: think I would feel better if Gallup had five targets

703
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 2: and four catches in that game, much like you know

704
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 2: what Tolbert had. You know, I know on the pregame show,

705
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 2: we were talking about, you know, Week two last year, Cincinnati,

706
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 2: Noah Brown five catches, five targets, first downs, fourth downs,

707
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 2: you know, everything that he did. He was a big

708
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: part of winning that football game. You know, Lamb had

709
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 2: a great game the other day, you know, but I

710
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 2: felt like, you know, I thought, I know I said

711
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 2: this earlier, well yesterday was I thought the Jets were

712
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,720
Speaker 2: really arrogant with the way they played Lamb. They absolutely

713
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 2: were arrogant that they felt like their rush could completely

714
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 2: get home and that they could just play him one

715
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 2: on one in his own coverage and they would be fine.

716
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 2: You know, if teams are going to do that, then yeah,

717
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 2: I'd throw the ball eleven times twelve times to Lamb.

718
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 2: But I mean, some of these other guys are going

719
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 2: to have to step And I understand what Patrick's saying

720
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 2: about the vertical games and stuff like that, but there's

721
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 2: going to be a time when if if Tolbert continues

722
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 2: to have five targets, four catches, six targets, five catches,

723
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 2: seven targets, seven catches, we're not going to be talking

724
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 2: about Michael Gallup unless he can come along and play

725
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 2: at the same level. Is what Jalen Tolbert's playing in the.

726
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 8: Things like you'll see him at times have like that

727
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 8: one great catch and that one great moment that's exactly

728
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 8: exactly and then you're like, Okay, yeah, that's exactly why

729
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 8: he's here. Yes, so he has that, But I think

730
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 8: it's the fact that we saw what happened last year

731
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 8: and it was kind of okay, well you blame it

732
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 8: on the injury, which is fair. He's still recovering and

733
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 8: all that. So now it's prolonged game. So again, still

734
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 8: early in the year, but hopefully it's not a copy

735
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 8: paste of what last year was.

736
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I personally think that that's coming for him

737
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 4: if he can keep his head in the right place

738
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 4: and not get discouraged, because I think at the early

739
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 4: part of this year, I think what you're gonna see

740
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 4: from the offense is a lot of the quick, short stuff.

741
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,479
Speaker 4: There's going to come a time when defenses are gonna say, Okay,

742
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 4: we see how you're trying to move the ball there.

743
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,280
Speaker 4: Now we're gonna we're gonna bite on those a little

744
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 4: bit more. That's when the opportunities will come more down

745
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 4: the field and the Cowboys will take those shots. And

746
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 4: that's when he'll get those opportunities. That's the thing about

747
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 4: a long season. He got seventeen games. Then well, as

748
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 4: the season goes on, teams will say, Okay, we'll see

749
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 4: you being really successful with this, so we're gonna take

750
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 4: that away.

751
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 9: What can you do next? That's when I think Michael

752
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 9: got But this.

753
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 2: Is us trying to answer your question, right, yeah, you know,

754
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 2: I mean you know you're trying to say, well, you know, well, heck,

755
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 2: everything's gonna be okay, it's all good here in Cowboys.

756
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 2: You know, you're trying to kind of come up with

757
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 2: reasons why, you know, why would you think that this

758
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 2: guy is struggling, you know, why are they not getting

759
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 2: why is he not have five catches? I'll say one

760
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 2: thing though. The other day, he's lucky he didn't get decapitated.

761
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 2: And I'm sorry it's a terrible word to say. Goes

762
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 2: in the middle of field, goes up, Guys collide and

763
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 2: all around you trying to get a ball. Give him

764
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 2: a clean ball to catch, you know, I mean, every

765
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 2: it seems like every time he he gets put more

766
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 2: situations where he gets whacked trying to catch a foot.

767
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 9: Usually high in the air.

768
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,879
Speaker 2: He doesn't and I'm like, okay, well give him a chance.

769
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,280
Speaker 4: It happened in week one, like down sideline, he thought

770
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 4: he had the ball, but he comes out out of

771
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 4: bound right, So exactly, I.

772
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,919
Speaker 7: Think he goes to what I was saying about, that's

773
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 7: I mean, that's a large part of his skill set

774
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,840
Speaker 7: is being able to high point the ball and play

775
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 7: violent and because the Cowboys coaching staff and Deck knows that,

776
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 7: unfortunately that will have them put him in more of

777
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 7: those precarious situations than Ceedey.

778
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 3: Lamb gets put in those situations.

779
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 7: Every once in a while he got decked as well,

780
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 7: but more often than not it is going to be

781
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,840
Speaker 7: Michael Gallup who is asked to take on those hits.

782
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,360
Speaker 2: What I'm learning about this offense is if you're not

783
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,359
Speaker 2: a good route runner, you're probably going to struggle. And

784
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,840
Speaker 2: I'm saying or if you're not a clean route runner,

785
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 2: if there's a little bit of if you're not, because

786
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 2: we've seen with Lamb, with Tolbert, with some other with Cooks,

787
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 2: you know, you run routes clean boom where you need

788
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 2: to be ball there.

789
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 8: So how do you classify him as a route runner?

790
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,399
Speaker 2: I don't think it's great. I think that I think

791
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 2: the athletic ability, the high point in the football I packed.

792
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 2: I think making himself small in areas and getting feet

793
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,239
Speaker 2: down and making spectac their catches. I think it's I

794
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 2: think he's one of the best I've ever seen it

795
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 2: that just you know, like there's no way he's going

796
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 2: to get this ball, and he gets it. But in

797
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 2: this offense, that's not a requirement being precise timing. You know,

798
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 2: Dack at training camp yelling at somebody it's twelve steps.

799
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 2: It's not fourteen, it's twelve. You know. That's that's how

800
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 2: precise you have to be running this offense with the

801
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 2: timing of it. And so that could be a problem.

802
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:47,399
Speaker 9: All right, we're gonna take our final break.

803
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 4: We'll come back with a little lap coat with no seal,

805
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 10: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

806
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 10: cheata of Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he

807
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 10: bought online was reliable, and now Todd trying to be

808
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 10: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

809
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 10: But the good news is Todd has AT and T

810
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 10: five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he

811
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 10: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

812

Speaker 10: toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and

856
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,400
Speaker 3: Go all right, ladies and gentlemen.

857
00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,840
Speaker 7: In this week's lab Coat Well, the previous two weeks

858
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 7: we focused on the opposing quarterback.

859
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 2: Man, don't you have a sounder for this thing?

860
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, bring me in beamer. Yes, science, there we go,

861
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 3: Thank you, Bryan.

862
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 2: There we go.

863
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:41,439
Speaker 3: Done.

864
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 7: Superstitious, very superstitious. Last two weeks we focused in on

865
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,680
Speaker 7: the opposing quarterback. Now the Cowboys are going up against

866
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 7: Joshua Dobbs. Not a ton of film on him, and

867
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 7: not a lot that stands out as far as what

868
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 7: the Cowboys need to account for. Averages less than six

869
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 7: yards when he takes off a run, and he can

870
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 7: be had in the air as well. So we're going

871
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 7: to turn inward on the Cowboys and I have two

872
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,399
Speaker 7: numbers that we're going to pull out of today's lap coat.

873
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,800
Speaker 7: Twenty one and twenty nine. Folks, twenty one and twenty

874
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 7: nine went back and did the tally of the Cowboys

875
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 7: defensive snaps since Dan Quinn has joined the team. Went

876
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 7: back and did a tally of how many sacks and

877
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,719
Speaker 7: pressures they've had in that same time frame. How many

878
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 7: takeaways the Cowboys are sacking opposing quarterbacks one sack every

879
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:27,720
Speaker 7: twenty one defensive snaps. That is insane. That is ridiculously insane.

880
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,200
Speaker 7: But here's why that, here's what makes that important. Especially

881
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 7: when you go into the context of pressures and disruptions

882
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,359
Speaker 7: in the backfield, it allows them to take the ball

883
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 7: away once roughly every twenty nine defensive snaps. That is

884
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 7: far and beyond every other team in the league. So

885
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 7: when you mix in the fact that the Cowboys to

886
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,720
Speaker 7: this point now Colnwood hopefully it continues, have not given

887
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 7: the ball away a single time. Now you're talking about

888
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 7: why it was forty zero, why it was thirty to ten,

889
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,799
Speaker 7: and it really should have been thirty to three. If

890
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 7: Malie Hooker goes and takes the outside shoulder as far

891
00:40:59,880 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 7: as the inside on the angle Malik. You know he

892
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 7: made good on that by getting the interception over the game,

893
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 7: but it should have been thirty to three, and we're

894
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 7: talking to seventy to three point differential. It's because the

895
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 7: Cowboys applied that much pressure to opposing teams. If they

896
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 7: can continue to do that going forward, and the oppo

897
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 7: and the Cowboys offense can eat if they can be

898
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 7: par or better, let alone electric, If they can be

899
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 7: par or better, and you're sacking the opposing quarterback once

900
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,879
Speaker 7: every twenty one snaps, you're taking the ball away once

901
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 7: every twenty nine snaps. Yes, this is a February team.

902
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 7: If that continues, Yeah, I love it.

903
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 2: I love what he's talking about there. I'll tell you

904
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:37,800
Speaker 2: one thing I'm going to do. I'm going to go

905
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 2: back and watch Josh Dobbs play against the Cowboys though

906
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 2: in Week sixteen when he made the start for the

907
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 2: Tennessee Titans and he didn't have his running back in

908
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 2: that game.

909
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 3: If I remember COVID, I remember it was.

910
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 2: Like this guy nine they played down Yeah.

911
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:55,240
Speaker 3: Fair.

912
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 7: My point being this year they've shown that they're not

913
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 7: willing to do that. I think, yeah, lessons like Green Bay, Tennessee, Jacksonville.

914
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 7: It burned in their mind and this tattoo on them

915
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,799
Speaker 7: and to say, remember that we went into Nashville and

916
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 7: we were in a dogfight with Josh Dobbs.

917
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 2: Yeah. So, well, they were fighting for a playoff spot too.

918
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 2: I mean, everybody was, everything was on the line, and

919
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 2: unfortunately for well for Tennessee, they didn't have their quarterback

920
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,399
Speaker 2: where they're running back in that game. I will say

921
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 2: this though about it though. I love the fact that

922
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 2: the numbers with the pressures and the number of plays,

923
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 2: and I think it just goes to the creativity of

924
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:35,760
Speaker 2: the coaching staff. Here, the willingness to take players find

925
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,360
Speaker 2: roles for them. Hey, we're going to play Jordan Lewis

926
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 2: only ten plays. Well, guess what Jordan Lewis is in

927
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 2: the nickel on a third down and undercutting a route

928
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,360
Speaker 2: and knocking the ball away or being in position to

929
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,720
Speaker 2: knock the ball away. You know this with the staff

930
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,880
Speaker 2: does it's to a credit to them, it's a credit

931
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:52,880
Speaker 2: to the players. It's a credit for the buy in,

932
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 2: the overall buy in on the defensive side of the ball.

933
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 2: It's going to be a tough day for Josh Dobbs,

934
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:00,880
Speaker 2: There's no question about it. But about it is and

935
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,400
Speaker 2: I'm happy about this. At least dan Quinn has an idea.

936
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 2: Now he can go back and say, Okay, this is

937
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,080
Speaker 2: how I try to affect this kid's eye level a

938
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 2: little bit. You know, this is how I kind of

939
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 2: moved him around. This is how I maybe got him

940
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 2: off platform a little bit. And too Patrick's numbers. You know,

941
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 2: maybe maybe those numbers are even better on some dropbacks

942
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,080
Speaker 2: and stuff like that, if they can get him to

943
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,760
Speaker 2: kind of maybe see some ghosts.

944
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 7: And definitely can be and well if you look at

945
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 7: those numbers and you flip it into what does that

946
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 7: mean potential wise going into each game for this Cowboys defense,

947
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 7: If you're the opposing offense trying to figure out what

948
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,319
Speaker 7: you're actually up against, it is a horror movie. This

949
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 7: Cowboys defense has the potential with these numbers to take

950
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:46,280
Speaker 7: the ball away six times per game on any given Sunday.

951
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 7: They have the potential for eight and a half sex

952
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 7: per game on any given Sunday. That's what opposing offenses

953
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 7: are up against. So yes, it is Freddy Krueger, it's Chucky,

954
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 7: it's Michael Myers, it's everybody.

955
00:43:57,480 --> 00:43:58,960
Speaker 3: It is the scary movie that we would want.

956
00:43:58,960 --> 00:43:59,879
Speaker 8: We're in September.

957
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, the defense, but this is the same.

958
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 8: That's an office joke because we know some people like

959
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 8: getting ahead of some holidays around here.

960
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 3: This is the defense.

961
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,759
Speaker 7: Are these defensive numbers from twenty to twenty one all

962
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:15,719
Speaker 7: the way through week two. So we're not talking about

963
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,439
Speaker 7: the office when we talk about the offense. The question

964
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 7: is can they continue to not give the ball away

965
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 7: and or minimize how and when they give the ball away?

966
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 7: The defense is the defense that is scary hours exclamation point.

967
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 4: I will say this and I want to talk about

968
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,359
Speaker 4: this a little bit more Thursday when when we dive

969
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 4: into the matchup, and this isn't so much about the

970
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,479
Speaker 4: matchup with the Cardinals, but really, when you think about

971
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 4: this defense overall, I've started now kind of wondering, Okay,

972
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 4: what is their kryptonite? Because every unit on every team

973
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 4: has some kryptonite and it hasn't become apparent just yet

974
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,960
Speaker 4: what that kryptonite is, but it's gonna come at some

975
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 4: point this season. We're gonna find out what their kryptonite is,

976
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:58,360
Speaker 4: and then teams are going to try to exploit that.

977
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 2: The one thing that we saw with what the Eagles did,

978
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,720
Speaker 2: and I know that's down the road, is the ability

979
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,759
Speaker 2: to play that Reid option football on how much is

980
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 2: that quarterback willing to run. He looks like he's not

981
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,799
Speaker 2: willing to run very much. But the one time we

982
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:19,239
Speaker 2: saw defense freeze Micah Parsons was running at him and

983
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 2: making him have to make a decision on quarterback or

984
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 2: pitch that that looked like the one time where it

985
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 2: kind of you could you could put two three guys

986
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 2: on and blocking he doesn't bother him. But that was

987
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 2: the one thing that paralyzed him as a player of

988
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,400
Speaker 2: having to make a decision on how to play. The

989
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,400
Speaker 2: Cowboys probably have an idea what they need to do

990
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 2: to avoid that.

991
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 7: Again, Micro speed, damone and lv' that's the situation when

992
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 7: he's one hundred percent correct.

993
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 3: The RPO was just it had Michael Parsons paralyzed. It

994
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:51,479
Speaker 3: had him running the mud.

995
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 7: So this needs to be a situation where you have

996
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 7: so much confidence in the speed of LVE and UH

997
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 7: and Demon and then obviously hopefully Donald is in the

998
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 7: game with Mark Monkey's bill. You trust those guys to

999
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 7: be able to cover if you let Mark Michael go

1000
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 7: back there as or Michael as some analysts will call him,

1001
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 7: and you trust that if Michael doesn't blow up that play,

1002
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 7: that you have speed on the batkend to contain that

1003
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 7: at the line of scrimmage.

1004
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 9: All right, that's a wrap.

1005
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 4: We're back tomorrow. We start diving into Cowboys versus Cardinals.

1006
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:24,240
Speaker 4: Will do the Cardinals defense versus the Cowboys offense tomorrow

1007
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:25,680
Speaker 4: until then for Patrick Walker.

1008
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 9: Brian brought us Ambergarcia. I'm Derek Eilton.
