Here's gonna 32 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 1: talk about today. We got a few things. I want 33 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: to first talk about where the Cowboys stand in the 34 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: end of the c East. I have a couple questions 35 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: for you around that with regards to your the likelihood 36 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: of certain things happening here over the next few weeks. 37 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: Then I want to get into some statistics. I was 38 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: looking at some different rate rankings where the Cowboys fall 39 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: in particular categories, some individuals, some team. But I want 40 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: to get your feedback on some of these and how 41 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: relevant they are to what we're seeing on the field. 42 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: But let's start first with the division. Right now, the 43 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: Cowboys are in second place. Redskins are at six and three, 44 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: leading the division, have beaten the Cowboys head to head. 45 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,119 Speaker 1: Cowboys do get a chance to right that wrong here 46 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving Day. But the Cowboys are in second place 47 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: at four and five, Phillies at four and five as well, 48 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: and then you have the Giants, who get a win 49 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: last night at two and seven. Over the next few weeks, 50 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot that's gonna happen. Because there's 51 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: gonna be some teams playing each other within the division. 52 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: They're also gonna be some really big games or teams 53 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: have to play very good teams outside the division. Washington 54 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: next week plays Houston, Dallas plays at Atlanta, Philadelphia plays 55 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: at New Orleans. All three of those games, in their 56 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: own different ways, will be tough games. But here's what 57 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: I want to do. I'm gonna tell you the next 58 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: three games for each of these teams, and I want 59 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: you to tell me the likelihood first of all, that 60 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: Dallas wins is next three. And we're gonna do this 61 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: on a scale of one to five. Five being the 62 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: most likely that they win two of the next three, 63 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 1: and one being the least that they'll win the next 64 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: Hate this why because we do a talk show, and 65 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: the talk shows people want to hear your opinions, obviously, 66 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: and I'm happy to give my opinion. But like what 67 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: we just we just came off a stretch where they 68 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: lost to a mediocre team at home and then beat 69 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: the reigning champs on the road. So like, whatever I 70 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: say is gonna be wrong, probably, but go ahead, not 71 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: to steal your thunder right. Awesome, My bad, I don't 72 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: really understand it just yet because there was a lot 73 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: and there's like all three teams in the vision next 74 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: three games one to five when I don't know yet, 75 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: but figured out, let's let's here we go, let's prot 76 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: start over. Okay, this sounds crazy. This is awesome, Stuart, 77 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: This is awesome, all right, Dallas. Next three games, they're 78 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: playing at Atlanta, they're playing home against Watching, they're playing 79 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: home against New Orleans. What's the likelihood in your mind 80 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: that they win two of the next three? Um, two, two, five, 81 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: five being the most three three out of four And 82 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: that's and see we've not seen out of this team. Nope. Yeah, yeah, 83 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: two sounds good. Yeah if you wrote them down by games, 84 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: would you change your opinion? Like if you had a 85 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: did a matchup and you said likely that they went 86 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: against Atlanta. See, yeah, I don't put that somewhere between 87 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: thirty and fifty percent. Yeah, still not great. You still 88 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: don't think there's a highly highway and that Like I'm 89 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 1: obviously look, I you know, you put a lot of 90 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 1: work into planning these shows, and I admire that. I 91 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: wasn't trying to crap on your idea, but like that 92 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: is the whole. That's what I let off with yesterday 93 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 1: after the game. It's like I don't know what to 94 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: do with this team, and so like it's a joke, 95 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: but I sort of believe it. It's like going on 96 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: the road and beating Philly impressively to me, suggests that 97 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: they'll probably lose to Atlanta. Like that's just what we've 98 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: come to expect from this team through ten weeks. I 99 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: was telling day this after the show yesterday. A lot 100 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: of tweets to me were like, man, if they just 101 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: would have beaten Washington or beaten the Titans, They've beaten Titans. 102 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: Look look where they would be that's not true because 103 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: I don't think they beat Philly. If you beat the Titans, 104 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: that's not what this team is. And that's why everyone's 105 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: frustrated because this team always stays in that they don't 106 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: really get hot. At one year they did with Dak 107 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: and Zekeez rookies. Most of the time though, they don't. 108 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: So for them to build on that and beat Atlanta, 109 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: that sounds great, But which come back and beat Washington 110 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: in four days if they if they beat Atlanta, they're 111 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: gonna beat Washington. That's just irrational confidence they beat Atlanta 112 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: or if they lose to Atlanta, if they beat Atlanta, 113 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: like if then they're going to beat like if they 114 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: if I will, I will believe at least to a degree, 115 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 1: Like if they can win back to back road games 116 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: against pretty good teams, and I don't care what the 117 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: records say, Philly and Atlanta both have a lot of talent, 118 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: Like if they can win those two games, even with 119 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: the short turnaround on Thanksgiving, Like you can come home 120 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: and play Washington at home and beat But doesn't that 121 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: fly in the face of what you were just saying 122 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: from the standpoint of consistency. That's I don't think they're 123 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: gonna beat Atlanta like that's anything. But if they do, 124 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: if they prove me wrong again, then you kind of 125 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: have to believe that that's some sort of late season momentum, 126 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: don't you, especially if they play well necessarily, because it 127 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: could just be that same pattern. They did lose two there, 128 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: and then they come back and win two, and then 129 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: they get back to their same pattern, and that's why 130 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: this team and this season is so frustrating. Well, the 131 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: thing about it is, with your question of winning two 132 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: out of three, is can they win the next two? 133 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: I don't think anyone right now would would say that 134 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: the Cowboys or really anybody will beat the Saints. I 135 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: mean that, yes, they can win, but we know that 136 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: the Saints, it'll be half a home crowd for them, 137 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: and they're just playing so well, and I don't think 138 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: this defense will hold up against that. The defense is 139 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: pretty good, but I think conventional wisdom says that. I 140 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: do think it's interesting though, to note, and you and 141 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: I talked about this yesterday. We were talking to your 142 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: office about just kind of how NFL seasons play out, 143 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 1: and we've seen this Cowboys teams in situations like that 144 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: where they go up against the behemoth and nobody expects 145 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: that they can win, and somehow they find a way 146 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: to do it. In this instance, this sets up the 147 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: right kind of paradigm in my opinion, for that. You've 148 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: got a Thanksgiving Day game, you got a short week, Um, 149 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: you've got the Cowboys at home. Maybe that maybe having 150 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: half of a crowd at home that's not their own crowd, 151 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: maybe that inspires them in a way. You know, there 152 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: there are a lot of factors there that could could 153 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: create an upset type environment. That's it's the NFL and 154 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: that's the Cowboys too, And like it's crazy when you 155 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: think about it. Maybe I've just been around this team 156 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: too long. But noon game on the road against an 157 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: Atlanta team that has struggled at times, they just got 158 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,239 Speaker 1: rocked by the Browns, Like they're certainly not world beaters. 159 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: And I'm sitting here like how are they gonna win this? 160 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: And then play the Saints at home? And I'm like, yeah, 161 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: they could win that game. It's prime time you get 162 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: up for the big game. I mean, stuff like that 163 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: happens all the time. And that's unless you're you know, 164 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: unless you're fortunate enough to be covering one of the 165 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: three or four teams that is truly kicking butt this year. 166 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: That's just the reality of the NFL. Okay, So then 167 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: you got I said, the Cowboys have been consistently inconsistent. Yes, 168 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: look at the Washington Redskoon Redskins, who are six and three. 169 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: What do you think is the likelihood that they go 170 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: that they win two of their next three? They've got 171 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: at Houston. I'm sorry, they're playing this week at home 172 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: against Houston, then at Dallas, then at Philadelphia. I think 173 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: this is a huge week and it goes back to 174 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: it just across the league, the Eagles, I mean across 175 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: the division. Excuse me. The Eagles have the Saints in 176 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: the Superdome and the Redskins are playing the Texans, who 177 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: are as hot as anybody in the league right now. 178 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: They won six in a row. So if the Cowboys 179 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: can find a way to beat Atlanta, you're talking about 180 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: making some serious Hey, because one of these somebody's losing. 181 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: Either either the Eagles or the Redskins are both are 182 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 1: probably losing this week. So this is big And I'm 183 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: kind of dismissing the Eagles, are you sort of? Yeah, 184 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: because not ready to do that. I would dismiss Washington 185 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: before I dismissed the Eagles. Their schedule just seems like 186 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 1: it's like they're four and five right now, and they 187 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: still have tougher games to play. Yeah, I don't know. 188 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: The next five Yeah, next five at New Orleans, then 189 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: home against the Giants, home against Washington, at Dallas at 190 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: the Rams. I mean, now, three of those are against 191 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 1: the division teams, right, and you can usually can come 192 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: back and then Okay, I just I don't think New 193 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: Orleans tough, right, But I can't on that. I'm I'm 194 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: not not quite as big as Mike crush on Aaron Rodgers, 195 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 1: but I'm a big believer that Carson Wentz is very good, 196 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: and as long as they have him, I can't rule 197 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: them out as being part of the race. Washington if 198 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: they if they win this game this week, if the 199 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: Redskins win, I mean at home, they're gonna be in 200 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 1: good shape. Now. I know I've said a couple of times, 201 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna run away with anything. I 202 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: really don't. I don't think they're very I don't think 203 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: they're that good. Um, But if they keep stacking wins 204 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: like that and beaten, you know, a team the Cowboys 205 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 1: couldn't beat in Houston, and you know, and then it's 206 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: gonna be interesting what happens when Philly plays Washington twice. 207 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: But um, you know, I mean, of course, the sounding 208 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 1: like Jason Garrett, I mean, the Cowboys can only control 209 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: what they control here. They're just trying to have a 210 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: good Tuesday. And but you know, if you've got to 211 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is a must win, but 212 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: it's up there as well because the Saints game is 213 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: sitting right there and you've got to beat Washington, you 214 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: know that. So when you're gonna make when you're gonna 215 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: make up some ground, I think it starts this week 216 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: against like you said, a team that got rocked by Cleveland. 217 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: That's who you need to beat after you saw But 218 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 1: I'll say this, and we talked about that that game. 219 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: I would and did some research just now. You know 220 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: last year's massacre game that changed the tide for both teams. 221 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: You know how similar things are going into this game. 222 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, that was played on November eleventh. 223 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: This will be November eighteenth, very similar in the time 224 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: of you know, of during the season they were four 225 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: and they were five or four and four and the 226 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys were five and three, and so both after that 227 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: game they both went to five and four. I mean, 228 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: so they're kind of like right there in terms of 229 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: where things are. And then we know what happened, and 230 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: then that kind of helped Atlanta go and they went 231 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: two rounds deep, and you know what happened to the Cowboys. 232 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: Wouldn't it just be poetic justice? To quote Kendrick Lamar, 233 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: if this game got the Cowboys on track, like I said, 234 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: you know, like I gotta take them a little more 235 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: seriously if they can go win this game. If they do, 236 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: it would be the polar opposite of what happened last year. 237 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 1: Although if that happens that week, go Charlton will get 238 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: six sacks. First round pick hasn't really done what we think. 239 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: He comes back this week whatever, going up against suit 240 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: who knows, and then he gets six sacks. Yeah. But 241 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: the thing about it is if that happens last week 242 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: will be the week that we look at to say 243 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: it turned the tie, because that was the game that 244 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: they first would have shown well maybe they are gonna 245 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: be able to do this, and this would only be 246 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 1: a continuation of that That's what they haven't been able 247 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:05,959 Speaker 1: to do so so far though this year is get 248 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: on that kind of role where they turn one win 249 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: into two and into three and into four. To go 250 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,079 Speaker 1: back to the start of the segment, I think, if anything, 251 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: what's gonna what's gonna shake this whole thing up? And 252 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: you mentioned it is just the number of division games. 253 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: So the Eagles play everybody in the division in a 254 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: like a three week stretch, right New Washington in Dallas. Yeah, 255 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: and then and so the Cowboys just played the Eagles, 256 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: and they have Washington and then it's not on the 257 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: immediate horizon, but another Eagles game is coming up pretty 258 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 1: soon too. And who the Redskins have. Redskins have Dallas, 259 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: and then they have Philly the week after that, and 260 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: then New York after that. So we got three in 261 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: a row as well. We just listed like six division games. 262 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: Divisions are gonna get tout here in the next four weeks. 263 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: How many division games are there in a season three 264 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: times six eighteen, So there's eighteen division games we're gonna 265 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: play like a third of them in a three week stretch. Yeah, 266 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: So this thing is going to sort itself out, like 267 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: by the by I'm by the time the Cowboys play 268 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: the Eagles again December ninth, I think, yep, it's gonna 269 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: be I think you have a good idea to look 270 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: really clear. Yeah, and the crab, I mean, I know 271 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,839 Speaker 1: that that sounds far away, It's really not. And that's 272 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: the other thing too. It's like these games are gonna 273 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: start coming quick because Cowboys play three and eleven days 274 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: and I like the sun start over twenty. Yeah, it's 275 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: gonna get wild here in the next three weeks. All right, 276 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: let's take our first break. When we come back, I 277 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: want to talk a little bit about some statistics that 278 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: I noticed, especially when Layton Vander is interesting to me 279 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: where he ranks in the NFL right now when it 280 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: comes to tackles and when it comes to solo tackles. 281 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that when we come right back.

Back to the Break, Welcome 323 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: back into the second second of the Break life in 324 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: the SWBC Morgat Studios at the Star. Let's talk a 325 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: little bit about some of the statistics and where the 326 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: Cowboys rank in some areas, both individually and as a team. 327 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: Layton vander Esch, rookie linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys right 328 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: now is ranked tenth in the NFL and tackles. That 329 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: in itself is a huge feat for a rookie linebacker. 330 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: But here was the more important thing and the part 331 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: that was way more startling to me. He's actually ranked second. 332 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: He's tied for second in the league in solo tackles. 333 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: What's sixty one? That to me is amazing that a 334 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: rookie linebacker would have sixty one solo tackles and it 335 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: would rank him second among his peers in the NFL. 336 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: You think we're looking at a Pro Bowl year for 337 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: lake vandersh who's first? Just FYI, Oh, if you don't 338 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: have it, it's not a big deal. I just thought 339 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: you might a Pro Bowl year. I don't know. I 340 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean because I think that, you know, 341 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: Jalen Smith will probably get some Pro Bowl um consideration 342 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: consideration there, maybe ahead of him. So I don't know, 343 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: if you know, you can both of them and they 344 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: may cancel each other out. I don't know how that 345 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: will go. But um, you know, I was actually thinking 346 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: just the other day about defensive Rookie of the Year, 347 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: you know, for him, possibility there and I don't I 348 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: don't really know some of the other rookies that are 349 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: tearing it up. I mean, well, you have the safety 350 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: out there in San Diego. James, the NFL's tackles leader, 351 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,439 Speaker 1: is also a rookie. Oh really, Darius Leonard's killing it. 352 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 1: But think about this. Think about this for a second. 353 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: Layton wasn't playing a whole tummy. He was not playing 354 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: every down at the beginning of the season. I think 355 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: this applies to his Pro Bowl status and his defensive 356 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: Rookie of the Year status, which I said a month ago, 357 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: I was like, awesome for him. He's playing well. I 358 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 1: really don't think he's got a shot at Rookie of 359 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: the Year because you need a couple things like you 360 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: need eyeballs, and you need stuff like interceptions, big play 361 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 1: as well. He got the pick and he had his 362 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: best game of the year on Sunday night when the 363 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 1: whole world was watching, which he had probably the game 364 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 1: changing play that won the game. I really and again, 365 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: you know those things matter. We saw it with Dexter 366 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 1: Cokeley if you remember back then. I am not trying 367 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: to slide him. I think the world of how he's playing, 368 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 1: but the reality of the situation is Pro Bowl and 369 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,199 Speaker 1: oftentimes like end of Year Award things like that are 370 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 1: their popularity contest. Like you people have to know your 371 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: name because people who are watching all twenty two aren't 372 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: doing the voting. So the thing about linebackers in the 373 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl, linebackers really get screwed inside linebackers because there's 374 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: really there's one spot for you because to start, because 375 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: they play four to three the outset, you could maybe 376 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: say outside linebackers, but those guys you're going up against 377 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: pass rushers, pass rushers on three the name, and so 378 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: it's really tough. Pro Bowl is going to be really 379 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: tough for any of those guys because they're inside linebackers. 380 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: And Luke Keicklee I think is still sitting over there 381 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 1: in Carolina and he's the name Keith Lee Wagner. It's 382 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: gonna be forever. You couldn't get in there because er 383 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: Lacker was there and a J. Hawk was good and 384 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 1: Willis was good, and you couldn't even get in there. 385 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: So now you got keick Lee you're name. And some others. 386 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: Having having said that, though Jalen Smith and Vanderesh both 387 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: will have a shot, they keep the role going, like 388 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: keep playing well and you're gonna have a shot because 389 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys fan base knows who you are and that 390 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: always matters. Um And then you know again, now he 391 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: is now in the consciousness of people who don't follow 392 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: the Cowboys closely, and that matters too. So get another 393 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: pick or two. Keep having these eight, nine, ten, thirteen 394 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 1: tackle games. He'll at least be in the conversation and 395 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: I won't be surprised at all if him and Jalen 396 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,400 Speaker 1: both make it. Now, maybe that's because somebody backed out 397 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: with an injury or somebody made the Super Bowl, but 398 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 1: it smells like alternates to me, which is good because 399 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: that's still a Pro Bowl. That's still a Pro Bowl. 400 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: If we really it doesn't count and get as there 401 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: as if you make it, make it. Yeah, I'm saying 402 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: you get in. Oh yeah, Yeah. We're saying the same 403 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: thing in different ways. Because you're saying an altern that 404 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: doesn't get the call. I'm saying an alter that does 405 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 1: get the call. But yeah, because the Cowboys of all 406 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: you won't even find out if it's at yeah we 407 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: we we somehow found out. A few years ago on 408 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 1: Lyle Collins was an alternate as a Rickie at guard, 409 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 1: but he never got the call that he never never 410 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: got the call. So I mean not to change the 411 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: topic drastically, but I mean Zach I would guess as 412 00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl lock. Yes, you can't bet again Tyring 413 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: Iron once you get that name recognition, like I wouldn't. 414 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: He has not played at a Pro Bowl level consistently 415 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,400 Speaker 1: this year. He keeps playing like he's played these last 416 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: two games, and he's right back in the mix of 417 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 1: the one of the best in the league. I think 418 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: Zach has a lot has Zack's a lock, Tyron has 419 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: a chance. Zeke is probably a lock. I mean, you've 420 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: got Zeke and Gurley in the NFC. Who else is 421 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 1: playing at that level? Kamara, yeahmar is playing and he 422 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: did that for the first half reason he's the first 423 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: four weeks without the other one. Yeah, Zeke's got some 424 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: tough competition, but right now Zeke is second in the 425 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: league and rushing. Yeah, I think he gets in because 426 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: in Kamara, one of them will be in the Super 427 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: I think, so, yeah, he's Zeke's going to the pro. Zeke, 428 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: Zach and Tyron on offense and then on defense. I 429 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: would guess uh d law if he if he has 430 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 1: a strong if he has a strong second half, he'll 431 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: be in and then vander Esht and Jalen are probably 432 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: your next best. Byron's having an amazing season when he 433 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: doesn't doesn't have to, doesn't have Let me throw this 434 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: out though, and I actually wanted to go to de 435 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,639 Speaker 1: Law next. But when you look at d law stats, 436 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,199 Speaker 1: he has six and a half sacks right now. That 437 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 1: ranks him seventeenth in the league. And when you're talking 438 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: about defensive ends, oftentimes people look at who's leading in sacks. 439 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: He's all the way down at seventeenth. Okay, do you 440 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: think that matters from that end? How much do you 441 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 1: think that complicates I know that we don't think it 442 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 1: changes because he plays He is such a vital role 443 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: when it comes to this defense and what he does 444 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 1: in the run game and everything else. But do you 445 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: think that that number six and a half and if 446 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: he at the end of the season is still ranks seventeenth, 447 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: does that change the conversation as far as the negotiation 448 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: of his contract is concerned when the offseason gets well, maybe, 449 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 1: but you know, let's talk about from a Pro Bowl standpoint, 450 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: that's not really that far off from a Pro Bowl 451 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: And you think it is, but let's just say I 452 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 1: don't know what that numbers. Let's just say half or 453 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: in the AFC half or in the NFC. Now you're 454 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 1: sitting in at now he's seventh or eighth. Some of 455 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: those guys could be defensive tackles so you know this, 456 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: or linebackers, so they're kind of out of it too. 457 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: So he really might not be that far off from 458 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl to the point now as you're what 459 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 1: you're talking about from a contract, and I think with him, 460 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: it's kind of an eye test type thing too. Him. 461 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: He's still making plays, He's making significant plays, and he 462 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: has become a leader, which I have so much respect 463 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: for the way he's handled this year. And I'm not 464 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: talking about what's going on in Pittsburgh because I don't 465 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: know that. I just know what's happening here. He's like, yes, 466 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: I'm signing this franchise deal, I'm gonna play. And not 467 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: only that, he hasn't acted like a guy that's on 468 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: a one year deal. He's acted like he is the 469 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: leader of this defense. Came up with a nickname for him, 470 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 1: and all that I can't, I can't I speak volumes 471 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: for what he's done there, and I think the Cowboys 472 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: have seen it too. I have a couple thoughts there 473 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: one and I haven't looked at the stats. I should. 474 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 1: I'm surprised that he's so far down. Nick makes a 475 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: good point. Maybe it's linebackers or defensive tackles, because what 476 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: he's on pace for, Like if he's got six and 477 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,360 Speaker 1: a half now, he's on pace for twelve. He only 478 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: had only he had fourteen and a half last year 479 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,360 Speaker 1: and was second in the league. So that, I mean, 480 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,439 Speaker 1: so many guys are on a better pace than him. 481 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 1: That's kind of surprising. Um the other so, I still 482 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,439 Speaker 1: think he'll make the Pro Bowl if he has a 483 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: strong second half. Shame on the Cowboys if the stack tally, 484 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: I mean obvious, like that'll come into play, like because 485 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: because negotiations are negotiation, sure, but shame on them if 486 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: they're like, oh, I don't know, he's not good. There's 487 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,479 Speaker 1: many sacks because like, turn on the tape, and nobody 488 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: should be watching the tape more so than the guy's 489 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 1: charged with signing. I mean, how many Brian writes about 490 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: it every week. The guy's amazing and run defense. He 491 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: takes on double teams and opens things up for other 492 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: guys anytime somebody has a tackle for loss of uh 493 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 1: case the fourth down stuff. Jordan Lewis and Jalen Smith, 494 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: they had that opening because DeMarcus Lawrence just mauled the 495 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,120 Speaker 1: right half of the line. Uh stuff like that, and 496 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: he's still getting sacks. His shoulders definitely bothering him regardless. 497 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean the character stuff like he is 498 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: the leader of this defense he has. I could go 499 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: on for an hour about how much I think the 500 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: Cowboys need to resign him and how much he deserves it. 501 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: So if you want to quibble about sack totals when 502 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 1: it comes to like the guaranteed language, sure, but if 503 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: he only has nine sacks this year and the Cowboys 504 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: think that's a good reason to try not to resign him, 505 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 1: shame on them big time. You know, yesterday we talked 506 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: about the five plays. Don't forget about these five and 507 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: I kind of got put on the spot and I 508 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: forgot some of them. I just remembered one because we 509 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: talked about run defense. Eagles had first and ten on 510 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: the eleven yard line, down thirteen to three. They're trying 511 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: to drive get back in this. I'm sorry. Yeah, it 512 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: was a first and ten on the eleven and we 513 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: always talk about how tough that is to score when 514 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 1: you get down there, first down, three yard loss because 515 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence shot in the gap there and made the 516 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 1: huge play that put them back on the fourteen. They 517 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 1: tried some hitching pitch and didn't get it and ended 518 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 1: up kicking a field goal. I mean, that was a 519 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: really big play. But but Lawrence, his run stopping ability 520 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 1: is so underrated, and just like it was for Dware, 521 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 1: Dware was a good run stopper. I think the Marcus 522 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 1: Lawrence is as well, and that's what makes him such 523 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: a well rounded player. All right, let's take a call 524 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: real quick. We have a call from Travis in California. Travis, 525 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: what up? Oh no, this is Logan. He Logan, okay, 526 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,639 Speaker 1: Logan are you That's okay? And I just wanted to 527 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:16,439 Speaker 1: say how much I appreciate you guys. You know, I'm 528 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 1: on the road all day for work, so I listened 529 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: to you guys a lot than I really appreciate it. 530 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: But basically what I wanted to say was, I think 531 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: the one thing that this team is missing on, especially 532 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: on the offensive line, is Ronald Leary. I think he 533 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: was like he was just that guy. I mean, I've 534 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 1: seen him in two thousand and sixteen, two and fourteen, 535 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: two thousand and fifteen, I don't know, he wasn't there 536 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: two thousand and fifteen, Sorry, but I seen him to 537 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: take on blockers with one hand and another block he 538 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: blocked another guy with another hand, and it's like they 539 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 1: just missed that big body guy. And I think that's 540 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: what Big seventy six did for them in this last game. 541 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: And I think, honestly right now, to win these next games, 542 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: I think they need to leave I don't know how 543 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: to pronounce his name, lou so, Yeah, I think they 544 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 1: need to leave him in there. And I think that 545 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: would just be really good for the offensive line because 546 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 1: I think that interior needs to be big and strong, 547 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: and I think it needs to stay that way. And 548 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 1: I think Connor Williams needs another offseason to to just 549 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 1: get some some strength training in there. All right, thanks 550 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: for the call. I don't think I could disagree with 551 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: anything that he just said. I agree. Let me throw 552 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 1: out a stat real quick. I noticed this stat when 553 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 1: I was doing some research this morning this year the Cowboys, 554 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: and this was gauging Cowboys level of success on short 555 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: yardage on the left, up the middle, and to the right. Okay, 556 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,679 Speaker 1: and listen to these numbers. Eighty seven percent of the 557 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: time when they run up the middle on second I'm sorry, 558 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 1: a third or fourth and two or shorter, they have 559 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 1: converted eighty seven percent of the time. When they run 560 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: up the middle, all right, When they run to the right, 561 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: they've converted seventy one percent of the time. When they 562 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 1: run to the left, they've only converted fifty percent of 563 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: the time. That's a pretty big indictment on especially knowing 564 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,439 Speaker 1: that you've got and all pro there a tackle, the 565 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: fact that going to your left on short yardage when 566 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 1: you really just need to power ahead and try to 567 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: pick up yards, they are only fifty percent on short yardage. 568 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: A couple of things about those stats. Now, the middle 569 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: is obviously meddles out because in my opinion, because a 570 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 1: lot of that is back up the middle. But you 571 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: gotta factor that in from the standpoint of do that 572 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: more often. Yeah, if you know that, that's a gimme true, 573 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 1: do it more often. But go ahead. Now, the Cowboys 574 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: are like most teams, they play right handed. Where they're 575 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: tight end is on the right side. A lot, so 576 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 1: I think they you know, they try to do that more, 577 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: but you're still talking about percentages, which you know that's 578 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: that's kind of alarming. I don't think they do it 579 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: as much, but even when they do, that's probably why 580 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: it's at fifty percent. And you wouldn't think tyring is 581 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: the weak link there. So that's that's good to know. 582 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: And I and I saw a lot of sweeps there 583 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 1: with him Suipilo. As strong as he is, he's still 584 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: kind of pretty mobile as well. I agree with what 585 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: the caller said. I think that they will do that, 586 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: and I agree that Ron Leary has been I think 587 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,439 Speaker 1: I was one that was like, I would resign here 588 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 1: the president of his family. I really will I because 589 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 1: I like that strength. I think it's as good as 590 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: Lyell Collins has become. I think his rookie year, they 591 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 1: struggled there just to get that push. When Leary came back, 592 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: it changed as he helped too, But for the most part, 593 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: but I do like Sue a Philo, they don't want 594 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: to hurt Connor Williams's confidence in any way. But I 595 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: guarantee if they run the ball well again in Atlanta, 596 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: I don't think you're gonna be seen to change. Well 597 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: that and I said this yesterday, but I think it's 598 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: I think it's huge. Like if Connor Williams was ready 599 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: to go today and you had to make this call, 600 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: that gives me pause. But I really don't think you 601 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: have to be I'll be surprised if Connor is ready 602 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: to come off of a knee procedure in ten days. 603 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: So I say, give Sue a Philo another go, and 604 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: if it looks as great as it did last week, 605 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 1: then you've got yourself a trend and you're, you know, sorry, 606 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: Connor hand theory, it's you know, he's not a top 607 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: ten pick. He's the second round pick. And I don't 608 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: think you're hurting anybody. Another fun little fact I get 609 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: this shouldn't surprise me. We talked about yesterday. Xavier Suahilo's 610 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: thirty third overall pick very much falls in line with 611 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: what the Cowboys have done over the years. You know, 612 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: bring in a talented guy, see if we can, especially 613 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: on the offensive line. Jonathan Cooper comes to mind. He's 614 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: not a two year deal. So this year and next year, 615 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: if this works out, then you've got yourself some fantastic 616 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: depth going into next season, because obviously Connor Williams is 617 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: going to be a part of this thing going forward. 618 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: But it's a nice problem to have. What do you think, 619 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: Sue of Philo's other position would be. Let's say he 620 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: is a backup, is he just a guard? Is he 621 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: just like or did you think he's got some center? 622 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: I have no idea if he has any flex? But 623 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: what about Connor Williams. It's center, I don't have to 624 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 1: work on it and needs to eat like nine thousand cheeseburgers. 625 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: Well he's got does he's playing? I think he's like 626 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: for guard, and I think it's center. You kind of 627 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: want to guide us. You gotta be like unmovable to 628 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 1: play center, don't you. I mean, I don't know. Yeah, 629 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: there's some centers that have been small here particularly that 630 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: have been okay him, it seems like he has his 631 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: center's build. To me, now he's gonna have to work 632 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: on technique and then that changes everything. He hasn't been 633 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: doing that. Yeah, he's been. He was a tackle the Saints. 634 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: The Saints worked him out at center at his pro day. Really, yeah, 635 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: he's I believe. I believe we talked about him possibly 636 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 1: having the flex to play all five positions. It doesn't 637 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: you know, Zach Martin is the same way. But Zach 638 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: Martin is way way better than everybody. So I don't know, 639 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: but I like where your head's at because again, you know, 640 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 1: I don't even like talking about it because it's such 641 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: an unfortunate situation. But you gotta have at least a 642 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: thought on what your contingency plans are at center for 643 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: next year. If if Travis Frederick doesn't recover the way 644 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: you want him to, doubt, all right, looks like our 645 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: final break. When we come back, we'll talk a little 646 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: bit more about some of these stats. Also, you guys 647 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: give us a call. The numbers eight eight eight eight 648 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 1: five five two two nine, and we want to get 649 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 1: some fan calls again, it's eight eight eight eight five 650 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: five two two ninety seven. We'll be right back. This 651 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: is the break. While the player can look good on paper, 652 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: it's one he's out on the field that you really 653 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: find out what he's made of. That's why the Cowboys 654 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: rely on more than just stats and scouting reports when 655 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: building their team. When picking a tractor, it's why you 656 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: should rely on more than just specs and features.

Well, Tommy John, it's we talk 702 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: about adjustment all the time. The Cowboys, I thought, made 703 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: a good adjustment to finally win a road game. And 704 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: the thing about Tommy John is they pride themselves on 705 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: not having to adjust, not having to sit there and 706 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 1: be uncomfortable and have to twitch around. Halftime adjustment. No, 707 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: no halftime adjustment for them, because they have the best 708 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: underwear you're ever going to feel.

All right, go check that out. 713 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: All right, let's get back to it. We got a 714 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: call from Adam in Atlanta. Adam, what up? Hey guy? 715 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: That's what you doing? Good? Good? Got your tickets? I do. 716 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: I'm going Sunday, but love, I'm doing the Star tours 717 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,400 Speaker 1: Q and A was making on Saturday to meet you. 718 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: Guys are possible. Dave will not be there. He'll be 719 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,840 Speaker 1: out partying, but the rest of us may drop all 720 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 1: depends what LSU's doing. We're only we're playing Rice, so 721 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: we got that kind of fan though. You're gonna be 722 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: last year, sure, but not as intently. Yeah what toll 723 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: last year's team. So hopefully it'll be a little better 724 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: turnout than that was a massacre. Yeah, fear of not 725 00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 1: letting you forget all right, first thing, Tommy John's best 726 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: thing has ever happened in my wardrobe? Yeah, saying we 727 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 1: did not pay him to say that you did not. 728 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,320 Speaker 1: And the second thing, I have a question after watching 729 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: that game. Great win on Sunday night, but after watching that, 730 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: one thing I've noticed, and I went back to look 731 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: at the all twenty two, is that I don't see 732 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 1: receivers coming back for the ball when Dack's in a 733 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 1: scramble drill. And I'll see other teams around the league 734 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: perfect that especially Green Bay. Is that something that they're 735 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: not coaching in Dallas. I mean, I just you know, 736 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: he's out scrambled, and you just want to see these 737 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 1: receivers come up for the ball and give him a chance, 738 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,919 Speaker 1: you know, help the quarterback. I don't know, I feel 739 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: like that's all Alan Hearns does. So, I mean, are 740 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 1: you saying that in a backhand accunt of well? I 741 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 1: mean I feel like a lot of his catches are 742 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 1: like that. I mean there's kind of coming back there. 743 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 1: I haven't really noticed that, but but that Cole Beasley 744 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: is another guy that has been really good at that 745 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: over the years. I mean, I'll be shocked if they're 746 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 1: not doing it though, right, I mean every team that's 747 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: you learned that when you first start playing football as 748 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 1: a receiver. I would be shocked if they're not. If 749 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: they don't know what to do in a scrambled drill 750 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: like you work on that. That's a part of just 751 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 1: being a receiver. I would like to go back and 752 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: look at the I have not watched any all twenty 753 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: two from this game. I'd like to look at it. 754 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 1: I mean, he's probably right, maybe there's a scenario where 755 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 1: they could have or didn't. I don't know, but just 756 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 1: as a general as a general theme for the season, 757 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 1: I think I think they are. Cooper was going on 758 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:30,320 Speaker 1: the scramble drill. He was going to the house. He 759 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,399 Speaker 1: looked like it might have been successful, but I would 760 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 1: have liked to see him make that through. That's the 761 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 1: other thing that you know. There was a scramble play 762 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: in that game. I'm not gonna name names, but somebody 763 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 1: in the press box with me was like beside himself 764 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 1: because I think it. I didn't name names, and I'm 765 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: not I will neither confirm nor deny um. I think 766 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,880 Speaker 1: it was. Beasley was scrambling in the middle of the 767 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,400 Speaker 1: field and dak is like five feet from the sideline, 768 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: and somebody was just beside him or herself that he 769 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 1: didn't throw. I was like, that's not how football works, 770 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: Like just because the guy's alone and the play's broken down, 771 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,280 Speaker 1: like DA would have had to throw that across his body, 772 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 1: moving against his motion through the middle of the field, 773 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: like odds are. There's also what coaches tell you never 774 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 1: to do because you can't see that guy. That's kind 775 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: of odds are coming across. That ball's going to the 776 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 1: house if you throw it, which so I don't know. 777 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:25,840 Speaker 1: I think his name was Adam. I don't know what 778 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: plays talking about. Probably wasn't that one. But a lot 779 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: of times, just because a guy looks like he's got 780 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 1: some space in a situation like that doesn't mean it's 781 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,840 Speaker 1: a smart throw boy. I wonder who you're talking about. 782 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 1: I'm not, I'm not, I got no names. Doesn't this 783 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,879 Speaker 1: you know? No snitches get stitches. Yeah, I'm not trying 784 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 1: to put people on the streets. All right, let's get 785 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 1: back into some of these stats. He was another one 786 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: I thought was kind of interesting. Cowboys right now are 787 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 1: ranged twenty ninth in the league. That's a really, really 788 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,319 Speaker 1: big number. They'd give it up thirty two. Do you 789 00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:00,080 Speaker 1: think that maybe that's the cause for the regression and 790 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: that I think you guys thinking that Dak has had 791 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 1: this year, do you think it's more because of the 792 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 1: fact that he's getting so much pressure, he's being sacked 793 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 1: so much that he's not being able to make the 794 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: right reads all the time and get the ball where 795 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: it needs to go. I hope, I hope you're I'm 796 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 1: not sure your microphone's working, so I'm just going to 797 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:20,280 Speaker 1: relay it for and he I can't hear you. Yeah, 798 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 1: but Derek's asking us on the off chance that you 799 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 1: can't hear him, Derek's asking that the Cowboys alone has 800 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: given up twenty nine sacks to this point in the season. 801 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 1: And do we think that that plays a role in 802 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 1: his seeming regression, which absolutely I do. Yeah, Um, I 803 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:39,359 Speaker 1: absolutely think that past protection, especially when this team hasn't 804 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 1: had a lead, has definitely been an issue. Um. You know, 805 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:45,840 Speaker 1: it's like NASCAR, It's like a pit crew. It is 806 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 1: like Kent's the goat, he's the MVP. Um No, you're good. 807 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,879 Speaker 1: Um I I do. I agree with that. I mean, 808 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 1: I think it has been it's too much. It's way 809 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 1: too much. Twenty nine. He took thirty two his entire 810 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: rookie year, and I think only it was something it 811 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 1: was like thirty five for all of last year. Like 812 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: for all we talked about the problems last year, it 813 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: still wasn't that bad. So I do think and it's 814 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 1: an issue. Love him to death. Lyle Collins has has 815 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:15,919 Speaker 1: not had an awesome season in pass Pro. I think 816 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: Cotter Williams has been part of that. Tyrant Smith has 817 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 1: slipped a little bit. I think Jason Witten is a 818 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: big part of that too. I think when you have 819 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 1: and even Dez Bryant, because what de was was doing 820 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 1: was was a guy that you kind of trusted on 821 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,760 Speaker 1: fifty fifty balls. Now, he didn't have a good season 822 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,720 Speaker 1: last year, but he did the year before. Jason Witten, 823 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 1: same thing. Who's you the guy that you kind of 824 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,360 Speaker 1: bail out and throw it to and they're not open, 825 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 1: they're not there, and therefore you're taking more sacks. I 826 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 1: think it's a combination of a lot of things, but 827 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 1: I wouldn't rule out that those those guys that were 828 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 1: always you know, trustworthy for the quarterbacks aren't there, and 829 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 1: then he's still trying to figure out who's this tied 830 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: end and he can dump it off to. I will 831 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 1: also say too, is I don't want to say stats 832 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: lie because getting your quarterback sacked is ever good. But 833 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: what I mean he got sacked four times on Sunday, 834 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 1: it didn't really disrupt the flow of the offense. So 835 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 1: you know, as Dak with some of that is you 836 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: know Dak extending plays that he shouldn't or you know, 837 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 1: fighting when he doesn't need to, or maybe running into pressure. 838 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:17,359 Speaker 1: I think, you know, Michael Bennett murdered him. You could 839 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: call out play calling for that one, just you know, 840 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: a first down bootleg. It's kind of a tendency of 841 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: theirs and it's a thing that can get taken advantage of. 842 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: So I don't want to put it all on the 843 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: offensive line. And also I think it's encouraging that they 844 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:33,399 Speaker 1: took four sacks in that game and we're still able 845 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: to have a really good offensive night, which has not 846 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 1: been the case in so many games. To talk a 847 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,320 Speaker 1: little bit about, well two things. Number one about the sacks. 848 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 1: He took a sack after Zeke's hurdle. Then they kind 849 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: of went backwards. He ran a couple of plays and 850 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: then didn't get ended up taking a sack and you're like, oh, 851 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: you can't take a sack there. Well, go back to 852 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 1: the Tennessee game when he's forcing into Mary Cooper. You 853 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 1: would love for him to take a sack there and 854 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: you still have a chance to get three points out 855 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 1: on the board. But that's that play Michael Bennett made 856 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 1: that almost you know, took his head off. That's a 857 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: big play when you're thinking about big picture, because what 858 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 1: Philadelphia was saying is we we will let you do 859 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 1: a play action there. I'm not worried about the defensive 860 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,799 Speaker 1: end going in because I got Fletcher Cox, I got 861 00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 1: a loading note in there and not a They will 862 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: make the plays. Not worried about that. That's fine. So 863 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 1: when you do a play action, you're there, you make 864 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 1: the play. But a lot of times when there is 865 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 1: a run, and then we saw that later in the game, 866 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,360 Speaker 1: they're trusting their tackles and linebackers to go make the 867 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: play and they're not, you know, forcing themselves down into 868 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 1: the play. That's where they start running the ball. So 869 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 1: you can do that and sometimes you're gonna win. But 870 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 1: as we saw later in the game, they didn't win 871 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 1: when those guys got blocked. They didn't have the extra help. 872 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 1: All right, real quick, we got a couple seconds here. 873 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: Let's go to a call real fast from Rick and Missouri. Rick. 874 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 1: What up? Yeah, just real quickly. Happy with the Mary Cooper. 875 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: He's made a huge impact on the game overall. I think, 876 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 1: not just stats, but it is good to see the 877 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: stats work. But one thing I wanted to ask about 878 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:06,800 Speaker 1: was on officiating. These downfield blocks before the pass is 879 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 1: made is driving me nuts. It happened against the Cowboys. 880 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 1: I remember a game against with the Steelers on their 881 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 1: key touchdown drive at the end of the game, particularly 882 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 1: against the Eagles, the center in a light possession and 883 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 1: the Eagles scored on the center was like five years 884 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: the yards downfield, engaged in a block on the linebacker 885 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: and then you see the ball pass through the screen 886 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: to the receiver. It's nuts, they're not calling it. I 887 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 1: do not understand the inconsistency of that rule. I really don't. 888 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 1: I mean that there's times I've seen it called. The 889 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys had one earlier this year where they had a 890 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 1: guy blocking way down the field already. Don't I don't 891 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 1: really understand the rule there on when you can do 892 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: that and block before the ball thrown and when you can't. 893 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 1: I agree with you. I'm a little bit perplexed on 894 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 1: that one. I mean, you see pick plays every single 895 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 1: Sunday around the NFL if you watch football, Yeah, it 896 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: happens in every game. It happens on both So you 897 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,280 Speaker 1: just about the picks. I'm talking about those wide receiver 898 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: bubble screens when they're already blocking the guy and the 899 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 1: I just I don't really know it. Yeah, it's a 900 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 1: that's a bank bank play. It's probably tough for the 901 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,359 Speaker 1: and crews call it differently as we saw. There's some 902 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 1: crew would have come in here and probably called twenty 903 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 1: penalties in the game. Instead they only called five. And 904 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 1: is the block egregious enough or noticeable enough? You know 905 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 1: that in the flow of the game. Yeah, I mean 906 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 1: that's it's it's a tough play, inconsistent across the board. 907 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: All right, we appreciate you guys join us. We're back tomorrow. 908 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,440 Speaker 1: We'll have more. We'll get into a little bit of 909 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: talk on the upcoming game. Cowboys face the I'm trying 910 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 1: to draw a blank on there. Where they playing this soon. 911 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Atlanta, Atlanta. We'll get into Atlanta. We'll talk 912 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 1: about Atlanta's offense tomorrow. Best part of their team.
