Speaker 1: Yeah. Am I wearing this all day to day as
Speaker 1: freaking I am.
Speaker 8: You guys would be proud.
Speaker 7: And my kids, while I was out of talent earlier
Speaker 7: this week, my kids asked my wife to watch Nightmare
Speaker 7: on ELM Street. I love it, Yes, sir, a classic,
Speaker 7: and they laughed all the way through it.
Speaker 6: No, it's hilarious.
Speaker 1: That's sociopathic behavior.
Speaker 8: My water, and then my son slept in my daughter's room.
Speaker 6: That's a good thing to do. You act tough. And
Speaker 6: then it's all right, boys, we got the Cowboys offense
Speaker 6: versus the Atlanta Falcons defense. Breakdown coming up here shortly,
Speaker 6: and Kyle's on the way.
Speaker 1: He is, He'll say, yeah, I'm gonna jump into hollow Man.
Speaker 1: I mean we're gonna jump into some news and notes.
Speaker 1: Let's do while we wait for hollow Man.
Speaker 6: Wait to turn Wait, Kyle, hold on, man, quit talking
Speaker 6: over it, Kyle for once.
Speaker 8: Jeez, honestly.
Speaker 1: All right, So News and Notes cowboys came out with
Speaker 1: their first injury.
Speaker 6: Fixed Kyle's camera. If you guys, look at it, Kyle,
Speaker 6: we got it, man, chill out. All right.
Speaker 1: There it is Baber back with the full skeleton suits
Speaker 1: going only. I love it. All right. So Brandon Aubrey
Speaker 1: he missed yesterday with the Jerry duty. But Jerry duty
Speaker 1: has concluded for him.
Speaker 8: But this is the longest case I ever.
Speaker 1: It was guilty. The guy was guilty and sentenced to
Speaker 1: sixty five years. So Brandon Aubrey is back for civic dude,
Speaker 1: he did his civic duty.
Speaker 8: Was that a week and a half.
Speaker 1: Yeah, as a matter of fact, because yeah, I started
Speaker 1: early last week. So Brandon Obery, he's back.
Speaker 6: Great putting away bad guys. We like to say it
Speaker 6: is that funny that it was sixty five years and
Speaker 6: that's his longest field goal.
Speaker 7: Oh bars, wow, I mean, like, isn't that weird?
Speaker 6: Like, do you think he's in the germ room?
Speaker 5: Like, hey, guy, I needs sixty five I'm gonna troll
Speaker 5: this guy a little bit.
Speaker 6: Sixty five years.
Speaker 1: That's rough, that's rough, long time, long time, all right?
Speaker 1: So Deron Bland. Uh, he still did not participate. Still
Speaker 1: not trending in the right direction, but he was activated
Speaker 1: to the fifty three man roster on yesterday.
Speaker 6: Does he need a new foot? I can go find
Speaker 6: I can go find one for him.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Oh man, So Derond Bland.
Speaker 1: The good news is is he's no longer on injured reserve,
Speaker 1: so he's back on the fifty three man roster. So
Speaker 1: now does that mean that he'll be ready for the
Speaker 1: Falcons again? I just said he did not participate in practice,
Speaker 1: so that it's still to be determined. But the good
Speaker 1: news is is he will be back this season, so
Speaker 1: as opposed to season ending ir which puts him out
Speaker 1: into a twenty twenty five. Kaylyn Carson was a full participant.
Speaker 1: He was full participant all last week as well, but
Speaker 1: was made inactive. I did say last week that I
Speaker 1: spoke with Kaylen and he said he was still trying
Speaker 1: to get his final clearance for his full range of motion.
Speaker 1: I spoke with him yesterday. He said he's good. He's
Speaker 1: just waiting for the clearance now. But he said this
Speaker 1: range of motion is back, it's fully formed. It's all good.
Speaker 1: So hopefully he's on the field. Trevon Diggs was held
Speaker 1: out yesterday with a calf injury. He said it was
Speaker 1: just some calf swords. He said it happened at some
Speaker 1: point during the game. He doesn't know when it happened,
Speaker 1: but apparently maybe he took a helmet to the calf
Speaker 1: and you know, he just didn't feel it in the moment. Yeah,
Speaker 1: went home, adrenaline pulled off, and he woke up the
Speaker 1: next morning, was like ouch, ow right. So it doesn't
Speaker 1: seem like there's any concern there. There is a concern
Speaker 1: for me with Linval Joseph showing up on the injury
Speaker 1: report with a back issue. He did not participate. Keep
Speaker 1: an eye on that.
Speaker 7: Spin my neck, my back.
Speaker 6: My neck back, that's what reports that.
Speaker 1: Strangely enough, so Eric Kendricks he was limited with his
Speaker 1: shoulder injury. Obviously he returned last week, So just something
Speaker 1: to monitor. Nothing big there. Zach Martin yesterday would have
Speaker 1: been a veteran rest day for him anyway, but because
Speaker 1: he has an issue it shoulder this time, they have
Speaker 1: to list it as such. But we'll see if he
Speaker 1: practices today, which he would have normally. Jordan Phillips full
Speaker 1: participant again and Nick Vigil again did not participate as
Speaker 1: he did not fry there or I think last Thursday
Speaker 1: either with his foot issues. So that's the Cowboys injury
Speaker 1: report right now. The things to kind of keep an
Speaker 1: eye on Deron Bland and Michael Parsons. Obviously Michael didn't
Speaker 1: participate either in practice. Neither one of those guys are
Speaker 1: trending in the right direction as of Thursday morning.
Speaker 6: Have you had eyes on Michael Parsons this week?
Speaker 1: Not really much to have eyes on. He wasn't out
Speaker 1: there yesterday. Yeah, with during the open portion of practice
Speaker 1: he was with the rehab group, so you know, can't
Speaker 1: really gauge how well he is or is not moving.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's walking fine, but as Isaiah can tell you,
Speaker 1: you know, there's a difference between walking and running and
Speaker 1: cutting and going full speed and exploding out of your
Speaker 1: brakes and things like that. So, uh, you know, to
Speaker 1: be determined for both Micah and Deron Bland.
Speaker 6: At this point, does seeing Zach Martin on the injury
Speaker 6: report injury report scary you at all?
Speaker 1: It's Halloween, I mean, keep in mind, because that's a
Speaker 1: good question to keep in mind. Zach was on the
Speaker 1: injury report with a back issue spinal within the past
Speaker 1: few weeks as well, so now back shoulder. He's not
Speaker 1: necessarily playing Zach Martin ball in twenty twenty four, Smoky
Speaker 1: O my back, ye back, Mike Tyson, I broke my
Speaker 1: back spel.
Speaker 7: Yeah, so the injury report's not great for people that
Speaker 7: are probably asking, like what's taking Micah Parson so long?
Speaker 7: Like high ankle spring up, there's a reason why people
Speaker 7: say that it's some in some cases it's better to
Speaker 7: break your ink well than it is to have a
Speaker 7: high ankle sprain a severe high anglespring because the stretch
Speaker 7: of your ligaments right, it takes your ligaments don't necessarily
Speaker 7: want to come back quickly right in terms of like
Speaker 7: tightening back up.
Speaker 8: But just think about a rubber band.
Speaker 7: If you leave a rubber band stretched out all night,
Speaker 7: right and all of a sudden, it's not going to have.
Speaker 8: That same resistance as it once did.
Speaker 7: So high ankle sprains absolutely suck and he is trust me,
Speaker 7: as I think we all know, he's doing everything that
Speaker 7: he can to possibly get back on the field. And
Speaker 7: you don't want him to come back on the field
Speaker 7: unless he's one hundred percent right.
Speaker 1: And what you also want to keep in mind, and
Speaker 1: since we're talking about the injury reporting, we're talking about
Speaker 1: Dern Bland being activated, not yet for the Falcons game,
Speaker 1: but he's back on the active roster. You lose over
Speaker 1: Waia to injured reserve because he's suffered the back injury.
Speaker 1: These back injuries, man, he suffer for the back injury.
Speaker 1: He took a knee to the back against the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers and now he's down for a minimum of
Speaker 1: four games. So if Dran Bland can't go and Kaitlyn
Speaker 1: Carson is still let's say Kaylyn Carson is a game
Speaker 1: time decision. We'll see And so now what are you
Speaker 1: looking at and Drew Booth maybe and that what's your
Speaker 1: situation there at cornerback? So going against a And we'll
Speaker 1: talk about this with we do cub vision today. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about this with QB vision. But on the
Speaker 1: flip side linebacker.
Speaker 8: Vision on the flip the flip side.
Speaker 1: On the flip side talking about like cornerback vision. I mean,
Speaker 1: you're going against a Falcons offense that can stretch the
Speaker 1: field and get chunk plays. Absolutely and opposite Trayvon Diggs
Speaker 1: and Jordan Lewis, what do what do you got there?
Speaker 1: You're fighting? This happens where other people's skin.
Speaker 6: I know, it's it's almost ago. I don't feel comfortable
Speaker 6: with my other people's skin.
Speaker 8: Are you sweating right now?
Speaker 6: No, it doesn't look too It's just that the eyes
Speaker 6: are really short and low.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie to The hair on that mask
Speaker 1: is disturbing.
Speaker 6: It's that I have had That's the more disturbing part.
Speaker 1: YouTube tell it.
Speaker 6: He does this outfit make me look slim?
Speaker 8: It does? I mean?

Speaker 6: It's a little echo on it.
Speaker 1: I heard.
Speaker 8: Laugh.
Speaker 6: H come on, Isaiah, let's there it go all right?
Speaker 8: Just sorry, I was waiting on so QB Vision.
Speaker 2: Well you have white Eddie, Why Edie. It's time for
Speaker 2: QB Vision with Isaiah's standback.
Speaker 8: Hey, guys, bulcome back. Forgether episodic TV vision. Let's talk
Speaker 8: about it, man.
Speaker 7: The defense of the Atlanta Falcons is not necessarily what
Speaker 7: you think about when you think about the Atlanta Falcons
Speaker 7: right now.
Speaker 8: You just mentioned it a.
Speaker 7: Second ago, Freddy, You thought you talked about their offense
Speaker 7: and how loaded they are at every position. Really they
Speaker 7: I mean the tight end, solid o line, solid quarterback,
Speaker 7: solid running back, solid receivers, solid.
Speaker 8: Defensively, you don't get those same vibes.
Speaker 6: No, you don't get those same vibes. That sensive line
Speaker 6: is not a nightmare, not.
Speaker 8: At all matters.
Speaker 7: In fact, speaking about the defensive line, their defensive line
Speaker 7: and their defense is not a threat when it comes
Speaker 7: to the pass rush, don't, don't, don't, they're not.
Speaker 8: Really a threat.
Speaker 7: In fact, they' they're worse than the league when it
Speaker 7: comes to defensive pressures in case anybody who was wondering,
Speaker 7: So that is positive, right, I know we're talking about,
Speaker 7: you know, spooky things, and this is this defensive front
Speaker 7: is just not spooky. Even though there are some names
Speaker 7: that historically have been spooky aka Grady Jarrett, aka Matthew Judon.
Speaker 8: Those are guys, that would normally.
Speaker 7: Scare you, right, absolutely, but they're just not the Patriots. Yeah,
Speaker 7: or if this was three years ago, you know, Grady
Speaker 7: Jarrett was a dude. He's not a dude right now.
Speaker 7: Matthew Judon was a dude even just a year ago.
Speaker 7: He's not a dude necessarily in Atlanta.
Speaker 6: Okay, say that by going up again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I probably shouldn't say that.
Speaker 8: It might change.
Speaker 7: But when you think about those guys up there, you
Speaker 7: have to still respect them. Yes, but their numbers, their
Speaker 7: stat line is not just popping off the screen like
Speaker 7: it once has in their earlier in their career. The
Speaker 7: one gentleman on the defensive front that does give me
Speaker 7: the spooks is number ninety. His name is David Onya
Speaker 7: Matta David, and he's gonna be and I don't know
Speaker 7: if that's pronounced the right way, but he is an
Speaker 7: interior defensive line.
Speaker 8: Okay.
Speaker 7: And when we say the interior defensive line, for all
Speaker 7: the fans at home that are not familiar, that's going
Speaker 7: to be anywhere between your two guards and your center.
Speaker 8: Okay.
Speaker 7: So you got Tyler Smith, you got Cooper b. B.
Speaker 7: You have Zach Martin. Zach Martin that name popped up where.
Speaker 8: On the injury on the injury report.
Speaker 7: Okay, shoulder, shoulder, So I don't think that you shoulder
Speaker 7: to You kind of need your shoulder to lock out
Speaker 7: guys that are that are relatively large, large humans.
Speaker 6: Is this a large human that we're going up again?
Speaker 7: He is a He's not a small human. He's six three,
Speaker 7: three hundred pounds, not an oversized human. When I when
Speaker 7: I look at him, I think about like an osa.
Speaker 6: Yes, okay, yeah.
Speaker 7: That's that's the that's the vibes he gives me. He
Speaker 7: gives me osa vibes. So he has a quick twitch
Speaker 7: to him, but he's also powerful. Grady Jarrett on the
Speaker 7: defensive front, has turned more into a bull rush type
Speaker 7: of guy. This guy right here is definitely a bull
Speaker 7: rush guy. He wants to lock in on you, he
Speaker 7: wants to go forward, but he does have that quick
Speaker 7: twitch to throw you off as a curve bar or
Speaker 7: a change up. You see what I did there, shout
Speaker 7: out to the to the Dodgers. So that's the that's
Speaker 7: the defensive front. Not not a lot to worry about there. Again,
Speaker 7: But when I say that Dak Prescott, he has a
Speaker 7: handful of interceptions this year, right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's not looking great. He's starting to ratio him.
Speaker 1: Eight in two over the last three games.
Speaker 8: For each of the last three games.
Speaker 7: And those interceptions are not coming under pressure.
Speaker 1: They are not.
Speaker 8: So you're not concerned about the pressure of the.
Speaker 7: Def of the defensive line and the defensive front of
Speaker 7: the Atlanta Falcons. But your quarterback has been throwing interceptions
Speaker 7: against teams who can't elicit pressure.
Speaker 6: Correct and historically he's been great under pressure.
Speaker 7: Yeah, so bring the pressure, bring it.
Speaker 6: But but if you.
Speaker 8: Don't stand there, don't stand it.
Speaker 7: Okay, so yeah, so yeah, so these guys aren going
Speaker 7: to get pressure tripped, but Dak has That is not
Speaker 7: necessarily something that you can rest your hat on because
Speaker 7: Dak has not done well versus teams that aren't getting pressure.
Speaker 8: It's kind of weird stat line anyway.
Speaker 6: The more time you give him, the more time you
Speaker 6: give him, the worse.
Speaker 7: He does seemingly this year. But hopefully he breaks that streak.
Speaker 7: Let's go up to the next level. Next level.
Speaker 8: The linebackers really not concerned. Okay.
Speaker 7: Matthew Judon fifteen is listed as a linebacker, but he
Speaker 7: really is a stand up defensive end. He doesn't like
Speaker 7: to have his hand in the ground. He wants to
Speaker 7: stand up, being a track track stands or a bicycle stands,
Speaker 7: whatever you want to call it. He wants to create
Speaker 7: pressure that way from a white white technique. When you
Speaker 7: go to their secondary. Okay, secondary has some guys that
Speaker 7: you need to put some respect on. They definitely have
Speaker 7: some guys. They have a j Terrell Junior. He's a
Speaker 7: guy that I like that as number twenty four. He's
Speaker 7: a big corner, physical corner. He wants to get his
Speaker 7: hands on you. The gentleman that I am most concerned about.
Speaker 8: His name, Yeah, the guy. His name is Jesse Bates
Speaker 8: to the third. Jesse Bates the third.
Speaker 1: As if the first and second word dangerous enough.
Speaker 7: Yes, And he said, just to ensure that you're remember
Speaker 7: his name, he wears number three.
Speaker 8: Okay, so you want have to look for him far.
Speaker 1: Hey good, it's.
Speaker 7: Jesse Bates the third is wearing number three, and he
Speaker 7: is a ballhawk. They're Jesse Bates and AJ Terrell and
Speaker 7: Justin Simmons. Okay, but Justin Simmons, I believe it's injured
Speaker 7: right now. But those guys are ballhawks. They're ballhawks. However,
Speaker 7: this defensive secondary, you can torch them. When I say torch,
Speaker 7: I'm talking about straight Tostedos Okay, champions Championship, Plaza Okay,
Speaker 7: Frisco and Star. They don't press up. They don't create
Speaker 7: a lot of issues there. They don't do a lot
Speaker 7: of confusion in terms of disguising their coverages. They are
Speaker 7: a too high shell defense. They want to sit back
Speaker 7: and don't allow anything to beat them over the top.
Speaker 7: They want to keep everything in front of them. They
Speaker 7: run Cover four okay, which is obviously three guys underneath,
Speaker 7: four guys up top okay. The reason why you can
Speaker 7: torch that if you're patient, is because you have three
Speaker 7: guys covering fifty three and a half yards of field. Laterally,
Speaker 7: it's a lot of space available at the first and
Speaker 7: second level. When they're not running Cover four with the
Speaker 7: two high, they're running Cover six, So they're running four
Speaker 7: to one side and they're running Cover two to the
Speaker 7: other side. Both of these coverages, they're still not coming
Speaker 7: up and pressing. Matter of fact, they press the least
Speaker 7: amount out of any team in the league. These guys
Speaker 7: are off playing off coverage five, six, seven, eight yards off.
Speaker 7: So when you have some receivers for the Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 7: that are trying to get their mojo going. Mojo moment.
Speaker 7: You see what I did there. They're trying to get rooted. Yeah,
Speaker 7: they're trying to get rooted. These guys are gonna they
Speaker 7: are going to be able to get the rock unimpeded. Yes,
Speaker 7: meaning that they're gonna be able to run the first
Speaker 7: five six seven yards without anybody touching them. And if
Speaker 7: I could run five six seven yards without anybody touching them,
Speaker 7: by rule, it's now illegal for you to touch me
Speaker 7: at what point five yards down.
Speaker 1: Of hillis you can't stop now it's.
Speaker 8: A legal contact.
Speaker 7: So I can run my routes underneath being patient, get
Speaker 7: the ball and get this thing called yak.
Speaker 8: Do you know what yak stands for?
Speaker 6: Yards after cas that's right, not.
Speaker 7: What a yak with a seat, not the purple no no, no,
Speaker 7: no yeah, the other yak.
Speaker 8: No grimace today.
Speaker 7: So I am looking forward to this offense getting going
Speaker 7: in the passing game, okay, because this defensive secondary they're
Speaker 7: not gonna come up. They're not gonna press you. These
Speaker 7: guys are not the most disciplined in terms of getting
Speaker 7: out of their backpedal. They will turn their shoulders to
Speaker 7: the sideline, which means that you can get them leaning
Speaker 7: one way and cross their face. Even though they are
Speaker 7: playing two high shelves. There's opportunities if you can get
Speaker 7: the protection, which you should because they're not doing well
Speaker 7: at pressure, and you can get beyond their secondary if
Speaker 7: you want to take your shots. So Ceedee Lambs can
Speaker 7: get up on the safeties. Jalen Tolbert will have opportunities
Speaker 7: to get up on the safeties and you can get
Speaker 7: these guys leaning one way, cross their face, and if
Speaker 7: the office the line protects, you can get some big shots.
Speaker 7: But you're going to have to be okay taking those five, six,
Speaker 7: seven yard passes and try to make something happen with
Speaker 7: them because they are not going to come up and
Speaker 7: put hands on you at the line of scrimmage.
Speaker 6: Well, ideally that gets back in a rhythm if he's
Speaker 6: able to throw those five and six yard routes. Patrick,
Speaker 6: how do you feel about our wide receivers going up
Speaker 6: against the secondary.
Speaker 1: I mean it's just like Isaiah said, I mean, the
Speaker 1: way they play their cover, they'll give you space to operate.
Speaker 1: And the Cowboys have struggled for most of the season
Speaker 1: with separation correct. Okay, well, this Falcons defense, the way
Speaker 1: they scheme it up is they're gifting you separation. All
Speaker 1: you have to do is make sure that you run
Speaker 1: your clean route, get the ball, and then once you
Speaker 1: get the ball, try to make one of two guys
Speaker 1: miss and then turn that into a chunk play. And
Speaker 1: the Cowboys have struggled all season with both getting chunk
Speaker 1: plays and then when they get chunk plays, making those
Speaker 1: chunk plays become touchdowns. I think Ceedee Lamb is the
Speaker 1: only one who's been able to effectively do that on
Speaker 1: more than one occasion, turn a chunk play into a touchdown,
Speaker 1: and then when you're struggling to get red zone touchdowns,
Speaker 1: that makes those chunk play turning into touchdown plays that
Speaker 1: much more valuable. But in kind of a side note,
Speaker 1: news and notes, Justin Simmons, he is in fact dealing
Speaker 1: with an injury. It's a hamstring, but he was limited,
Speaker 1: so he participated in the practice on yesterday, so he
Speaker 1: has at least a chance there. But when you're talking
Speaker 1: about Justin Simmons, you're talking about Pro Bowl caliber stuff.
Speaker 1: When you're talking about aj Terrell, that's pro bo right
Speaker 1: when you're talking about Jesse Bates. That's Pro Bowl, right.
Speaker 1: So while they'll give you the space, you have to
Speaker 1: make sure that the routes are good and the throws
Speaker 1: are there. The decision making from Dak has to be
Speaker 1: crisp in this game because while, like Isaiah saying, while
Speaker 1: they'll give you the space to operate, they're looking for
Speaker 1: that one mistake. They're looking for that bad throw, that
Speaker 1: bad decision, and once you do that, they're taking the ball.
Speaker 6: And while the coverage is playing off, do you think
Speaker 6: that opens lanes for the running game to maybe get right,
Speaker 6: get on the right track.
Speaker 7: I do think that you can run the ball here.
Speaker 7: I mean, but it comes down to there's nothing on
Speaker 7: their defensive front that says you can't run the ball.
Speaker 7: Let me just say that it comes down to Dallas's
Speaker 7: offensive line and scheme. Can the offensive line do their
Speaker 7: jobs and start moving guys because we haven't seen it.
Speaker 8: We just haven't seen.
Speaker 1: There's nobody really scary up front.
Speaker 7: There's nobody scary up front. But again, doesn't mean they're
Speaker 7: bad players. Doesn't know obviously not. I mean, they got
Speaker 7: some names, right, they have names.
Speaker 4: We're not looking at this front seven, the same way
Speaker 4: we looked at Pittsburgh's Film seven, or even last week
Speaker 4: and facing uh, San Francisco's front seven, it's not the same.
Speaker 7: This is the least threatening defensive line we faced yet
Speaker 7: up to date. That doesn't mean that they can't turn
Speaker 7: it on in New York and they tend to turn
Speaker 7: it that turn it on it. That doesn't mean they
Speaker 7: can't turn it on because they have the players.
Speaker 8: It's not.
Speaker 7: It's not like they just have some bumps. They got
Speaker 7: some dudes up there. They just haven't been playing well
Speaker 7: as a unit. But I'm hoping again there goes that
Speaker 7: word hope. Okay, I hope that the offense can get
Speaker 7: a running game going. But my fate is in the
Speaker 7: passing game. Who is his hiding behind my shoulder right now?
Speaker 7: Tell me that is our buddy, com I grew up
Speaker 7: in a bad neighborhood.
Speaker 1: You can't be your QB vision degree.
Speaker 8: I got at least two hundred and seventy degrees.
Speaker 1: Hey, what do we got here?
Speaker 6: Oh? We got some black rifle coffee on the way,
Speaker 6: talking coffee. We're gonna take our last break when we
Speaker 6: come back. More from this defensive preview and some more
Speaker 6: black rifle coffee.
Speaker 8: Just a few.

Speaker 9: cheetah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought

Speaker 9: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.
Speaker 9: But the good news is Todd has AT and T
Speaker 9: five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he
Speaker 9: learned the best thing to do is stop running and
Speaker 9: toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and

Speaker 4: and the little like flap on top was just bouncing
Speaker 4: back and forth.
Speaker 8: That was my favorite.
Speaker 7: Allow the falcons to steal your day, you know what
Speaker 7: I'm saying, like, don't let them do it, because if

Speaker 8: I'm definitely doing that. Yeah, your Grandma's coffee.
Speaker 4: So here's here's the thing, guys, I'm dressed up as
Speaker 4: a disappointment today.
Speaker 1: You guys look fantastic. Explain yeah Dad, which spider?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, uh yeah, I'm a tired triple with dad today.
Speaker 4: So all three babies are sick right now. So that's
Speaker 4: been a fun two days. And I usually try not
Speaker 4: to make excuses with the babies because everybody's tired, Like
Speaker 4: everybody's got stuff, and it's been tough the last two days. Well,
Speaker 4: I set aside I was gonna I was going to
Speaker 4: dress up as a blind referee.
Speaker 1: That's what I was going to be.
Speaker 8: I had the sure, I had the glasses. I was
Speaker 8: talking to Patrick about it yesterday. The probably got a
Speaker 8: fire from the league.
Speaker 4: Probably that's fine, send me the check Roger, the uh
Speaker 4: some of the invoice Roger. But I was telling talking
Speaker 4: with Patrick yesterday and he was like, hey, you can't
Speaker 4: just go sunglasses.
Speaker 8: You got to go with the big burly ones.
Speaker 6: I found some and I set them aside.
Speaker 4: And I found like a cane, a little plastic cane.
Speaker 4: Found it, set it aside, walked out the door this
Speaker 4: morning after trying to get everybody settled.
Speaker 8: And left it behind.
Speaker 4: So in doing so, I stopped and got donuts for
Speaker 4: everybody just to make up for it.
Speaker 6: Some donuts just to make up for my donuts.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you can, you can take that instead of
Speaker 1: the candy corn.
Speaker 4: But in the process I was like, oh yeah, I
Speaker 4: left thoroughly had enough time to get donuts, not enough
Speaker 4: time to go back and get my rough shirt. But
Speaker 4: then I my phone was dead because of all the
Speaker 4: stuff from last night. And I usually pull up ways
Speaker 4: to try and get around traffic, and I ran straight
Speaker 4: into like a heavy traffic jam, and that's what cost
Speaker 4: me twenty five minutes.
Speaker 1: So it's actually been a scary day for you already.
Speaker 8: Yeah, dude, yes, I have to do this's just here.
Speaker 8: What was that I said? I feel like I have
Speaker 8: to do this one just for the teeth.
Speaker 1: You're just taking the teeth.
Speaker 6: Just take the teeth.
Speaker 1: What's happening onste.
Speaker 6: Oh my, it's not it's not.
Speaker 8: That was not.
Speaker 7: Cower it up.
Speaker 1: You look like like Wanda and Blade had a kid
Speaker 1: color and Blade and a kid.
Speaker 6: I love it and a line.
Speaker 4: This is the official smile of the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 8: That might be might be.
Speaker 4: Oh goodness, all right, So you you just eloquently went
Speaker 4: through QB Vision and talked about this matchup and how
Speaker 4: there's nobody really Halloween punch scary on the opposite side.
Speaker 4: But they just do the the necessary things to keep
Speaker 4: their offense within striking distance.
Speaker 8: Their defense is doing what.
Speaker 7: I'm going with the cht. I missed Monday and Tuesday,
Speaker 7: so I miss Tuesdaynday. You are the grand ch after.
Speaker 7: They are doing what the expectation of Dallas's defense this
Speaker 7: year was to limit the scoring opportunities. Just keep manageable, right,
Speaker 7: keep it respectable, and allow the offense go out there
Speaker 7: and cut right.
Speaker 8: Don't give up a bunch of points.
Speaker 7: Allow the offense to put up a bunch of points,
Speaker 7: and we'll outscore our opponent. That's how the Atlanta Falcons
Speaker 7: approach the get their defense. Just sit back, keep everything
Speaker 7: in front of us, the old Bill Belichick way right,
Speaker 7: sit back, don't know any plays behind you, keep everything
Speaker 7: in front, play downhill right, tackle everything in front of you,
Speaker 7: tackle the run, tackle the receivers right. They can catch
Speaker 7: the ball, but we're gonna make them use the clock,
Speaker 7: and eventually our offense is going to be scoring so
Speaker 7: quickly that they're going to run out of time. They're
Speaker 7: going to run out of time and run out of opportunities.
Speaker 7: That's how their defense plays. They're perfectly fine giving up
Speaker 7: plays as long as you don't beat this over the
Speaker 7: top right, and we have ballhawks. So if you want
Speaker 7: to take your shot, not only do we have guys
Speaker 7: sitting back there waiting on that, but if you do
Speaker 7: get impatient, because it happens, some teams get impatient.
Speaker 8: They're like, you know, we're tired.
Speaker 7: Of being methodical and working our way down the field
Speaker 7: and trying to move the chains. Screw this, let me
Speaker 7: throw it over the top. No, no, no, no, there's
Speaker 7: Justin Simmons, this agent to rail, right, there's a it
Speaker 7: will not be like yeah, just bits bas So you
Speaker 7: got you have multiple guys back there that will make
Speaker 7: you pay. And they are ballhawks, right They Justin Simms
Speaker 7: will hit you in the chest. But outside of that,
Speaker 7: those guys just want to get the ball. So that's
Speaker 7: what their defense is doing. Dallas's defense has not turned
Speaker 7: the ball over. And and to emphasize the point about
Speaker 7: them not getting a lot of pressure, I think they
Speaker 7: have seven interceptions. Of those seven interceptions watching on film,
Speaker 7: five of those interceptions came via pressure when the quarterback
Speaker 7: was under durest.
Speaker 1: So the rare times that they do get pressure, it's
Speaker 1: a turnover.
Speaker 6: It turns in because these.
Speaker 8: Guys are trying.
Speaker 7: You're trying to chuck the ball down the field, and
Speaker 7: these guys are hawks. They're hawks. It's when I say
Speaker 7: they're ballhawks. I'm talking about like if you felt like
Speaker 7: you had durn Bland and you had you had Trayvon
Speaker 7: Diggs out there, you feel confident that if somebody puts
Speaker 7: it up there, you're you're coming down with the ball.
Speaker 1: That's how they feel.
Speaker 4: Defensively, where does this secondary rank compared to some of
Speaker 4: the others that we've seen so far this year.
Speaker 6: It's a good question.
Speaker 1: As personnel goes, they're up there.
Speaker 8: They're probably one or two.
Speaker 1: Right. As far as personnel goes, they're they're near the
Speaker 1: top most. Certainly as far as scheme goes, not near
Speaker 1: the top. Right, So we.
Speaker 4: Talk just the is that the thought process behind a
Speaker 4: new coordinator because it's a new.
Speaker 6: Staff, new coordinator.
Speaker 7: Don't mess it, don't mess it up for the offense. Yeah,
Speaker 7: that's all they're trying to don't Yeah, don't cost them
Speaker 7: the game. Don't be the ones that cost us cost
Speaker 7: us the game. Is how they're looking at it.
Speaker 1: But I mean, they got some dudes that we can
Speaker 1: keep going over the names all day long. But like
Speaker 1: Isaiah led with QB vision there last in the league
Speaker 1: and pressures sent at the opposing quarterback. So this is
Speaker 1: a game where all that needs to do is take
Speaker 1: advantage of that time theoretically he should have some time,
Speaker 1: theoretically speaking, take advantage of that that extra second or
Speaker 1: so in the pocket and go through your reads. Right,
Speaker 1: No need to be super aggressive in this game. If
Speaker 1: the pressure comes, you know, escape the pocket at least
Speaker 1: cross the line of scrimmage a couple of times to
Speaker 1: that threat of scrambling. And and then when you dump
Speaker 1: it off to a particular player, you're gonna have to
Speaker 1: task guys like Ceedee Lamb, which has shown he can
Speaker 1: do it, Jalen Tolbert, Jake Ferguson, whomever else. They're gonna
Speaker 1: have to get the yak, They're gonna have to get
Speaker 1: the purple velvet bag. They need to crown Royal. Right,
Speaker 1: So yeah, so I think this is a game. This
Speaker 1: feels more like a game where cowboys are going to
Speaker 1: have to defend depend more on finding and getting yack
Speaker 1: from their receivers than trying to figure out who can
Speaker 1: deliver the chunk play exactly all right, So I mean
Speaker 1: there will be other opportunities down the road with other
Speaker 1: secondaries where it's like, okay, maybe we can get going
Speaker 1: in the chunk play category. This, this ain't the this
Speaker 1: ain't the day to do that.
Speaker 6: Well, so that to me feels like Mike Mcarthy's philosophy.
Speaker 6: I think he wants to complete small, shorter throws down
Speaker 6: the field and methodically get your way down the field
Speaker 6: to get yourself in the red zone and then you know.
Speaker 7: If you can run it though, So yes, agree with you.
Speaker 8: That a big time not happening.
Speaker 7: Yeah, so like that what you're speaking of, that that
Speaker 7: thought process works when you can effectively get four yards
Speaker 7: of pop.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's not happened. But your running backs are averaging,
Speaker 6: but also one point nine.
Speaker 1: And to that point, you know what will help get
Speaker 1: chunk plays?
Speaker 6: What's that? Patrick?
Speaker 1: I'm going to say this in Isaiah's going to fall
Speaker 1: off his chair. Play action, establish the run so you
Speaker 1: can use the play action.
Speaker 6: And as we confirmed yesterday, only twenty percent of all
Speaker 6: Cowboys offensive plays are play actions.
Speaker 7: And how can you get a team out of too
Speaker 7: high shell play action and running the foot run of
Speaker 7: the ball. Yeah, make them make them drop it then,
Speaker 7: but they don't. They don't play man to man very well,
Speaker 7: no they don't. So they want to be too high.
Speaker 7: It's a ghost. They want to be too high, so
Speaker 7: you can get them out of a too high shell
Speaker 7: and open things up for your offense by running the ball.
Speaker 7: And we say it often right now. I hate to
Speaker 7: sound like we're on repeat, but it's very important, Like
Speaker 7: it is so instrumental to the success of an offense.
Speaker 7: And it's the reason why you feel like your offense
Speaker 7: is not hitting this year.
Speaker 4: They're so many instances were in the modern day NFL.
Speaker 4: You say, oh, you don't need a running game. You
Speaker 4: can win without big time running backs.
Speaker 8: And that's true.
Speaker 1: You can win without the big.
Speaker 4: Name running backs, but you got to still be able
Speaker 4: to run the football effectively, either behind a big offensive
Speaker 4: line or with the scheme that allows it to do
Speaker 4: so you don't have any.
Speaker 6: Of those things or not. The yards need to be there.
Speaker 7: It's the reason why balte Yeah, it's the reason why Baltimore,
Speaker 7: it's the reason why Detroit are two of the most feared,
Speaker 7: the two most feared teams.
Speaker 8: In the league right now.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's literally to talk about their offense. Is the
Speaker 7: reason got good James Cook. Yeah, when you and that's
Speaker 7: the reason why you think about it. All those teams
Speaker 7: have loaded up at web position. They're loading up at
Speaker 7: what position? Receivers?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 7: Why because they know they can't sit down here at
Speaker 7: the end, sit in too high shell. You have to
Speaker 7: come up here and load the box. Don't load the
Speaker 7: box against Dery Henry.
Speaker 8: What happens? Justice Ill right, you hit a monster? Come down,
Speaker 8: come down if you want to. Why did they make
Speaker 8: a trade for it?
Speaker 7: Why did they make a trade for Deontay Johnson? Because
Speaker 7: we're gonna have four receivers out there that can all
Speaker 7: go out there and toast. You come down here and
Speaker 7: load the box. And if you want to is man
Speaker 7: the man coverage.
Speaker 8: He's still got save flowers.
Speaker 5: You got Johnson, go to the chart.
Speaker 8: These dudes outside Detroit Lions two headed monster, Sonic and knuckles.
Speaker 8: Sonic and knuckles in the backfield, that's what they call them.
Speaker 7: I didn't know that that phenomenon, that Sonic and knuckles
Speaker 7: in the backfield.
Speaker 12: Right.
Speaker 7: If you if you don't come downhill, what happens. They're
Speaker 7: gonna run it. They're gonna run it all over you
Speaker 7: if you do come down here and try to load
Speaker 7: the box.
Speaker 4: They got the same brown I'm all same Brownson Williams
Speaker 4: from suspension, they got so identify whose shadow is.
Speaker 1: They need to figure out who's whose shadow because we're
Speaker 1: having this conversation, who's who's gonna be next week's experimentation
Speaker 1: for handoffs? Right as far as like who's gonna get
Speaker 1: the chunk, who's gonna get the bulk of? Is it
Speaker 1: gonna be Dalvin this time? Is it going to is
Speaker 1: Rico going to be back? Presumably? So is he gonna play?
Speaker 1: Will he be made in active? Sounds like Deuce might
Speaker 1: still be made in active? I mean when you go
Speaker 1: back and you listen to what Mike McCarthy said yesterday
Speaker 1: about he said as a play caller, he doesn't like
Speaker 1: the running back by committee because he doesn't he doesn't
Speaker 1: have it know what you're getting, right, He doesn't know
Speaker 1: what he's getting. And he also doesn't have enough data
Speaker 1: to know who should be the lead. Right, So you
Speaker 1: don't really have a lead. You just have a cast
Speaker 1: of characters and you don't know who plays what role
Speaker 1: best yet. And we went in the week ten, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you have a cast of characters. So you're going into
Speaker 1: week ten. So now, and I will give Dalvin Cook
Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt and say that was one outing.
Speaker 1: I need to see more. Give me a couple more elevations.
Speaker 1: But I will also say that for those that were
Speaker 1: expecting that he would come out and instantly Adrian Peterson
Speaker 1: the situation you saw, that's not going to happen in Dallas.
Speaker 8: Now, I hope I like that word this year, you
Speaker 8: like hope. It's been a lot of it.
Speaker 7: It's been a lot of it. People will need to understand.
Speaker 7: We've said it on the show. The running back by
Speaker 7: committee works if your offensive line is dominant. Yes, there
Speaker 7: are I'll say it again. I've said a number of
Speaker 7: times there are very few running backs in this league
Speaker 7: that can create right when the old line is not
Speaker 7: doing what they should be doing right as you drawed up,
Speaker 7: There's very few guys in this league that can make
Speaker 7: it happen regardless.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 7: There is one guy in the history that I that
Speaker 7: I loved. His name is Barry Sanders. Old line wasn't
Speaker 7: the greatest because Barry was Barry right.
Speaker 8: So you don't have that.
Speaker 7: So if you if you don't have that, it doesn't
Speaker 7: matter who's that running back. So the I don't want
Speaker 7: to say that, you know, it doesn't matter who you
Speaker 7: put in the backfield. But it doesn't matter who you
Speaker 7: put in the backfield, because if the office line is
Speaker 7: not creating the running lanes, then you're not going to
Speaker 7: be successful. So what happens when your officer coordinator that's
Speaker 7: frustrated by the ineffectiveness of the running game, offensive line,
Speaker 7: running back room, whatever you want to put the blame on. Now,
Speaker 7: I'm running screens. Now, I'm running screens with wide receivers.
Speaker 7: So now, who are my wide receivers that can run screens.
Speaker 7: I don't want to use c D because I want
Speaker 7: CD running down the field. Jayalen Tober is not really
Speaker 7: the shiftiest guy in the world, so I gotta get
Speaker 7: it to turp Well, turps ball security is not the
Speaker 7: greatest right now. Right so these are the questions that
Speaker 7: coach McCarthy is going over in his head.
Speaker 8: He's like, I have to be able to bring the
Speaker 8: defense down.
Speaker 7: I have to get these guys down near the line
Speaker 7: of scrimmage so that we can get these chunk plays
Speaker 7: because right now, the inability to run the ball effectively
Speaker 7: is not in our favor in regards to moving the
Speaker 7: chains consistently and having these sustained drives. So if I
Speaker 7: can't have these sustained drives because I don't have a
Speaker 7: running game. I have to have shots. But when I
Speaker 7: try to take shots, we have interceptions. So I have
Speaker 7: to list it something that gets these guys closer to
Speaker 7: the line of scrimmage. So that means now I have
Speaker 7: to take my number one receiver out of running routes
Speaker 7: down the field, and I now have to get him screenplays.
Speaker 7: This is the this is his this is his issue
Speaker 7: that he has right now that he's trying to figure out.
Speaker 7: He's trying to find a solution.
Speaker 1: It's amare. It is a nightmare. It is sorry for
Speaker 1: those that are wondering. These are not plastic metal egg Yeah,
Speaker 1: but ask you what you did. I'm a little scared
Speaker 1: the classic. I'm shocked the security.
Speaker 8: He said the toilet.
Speaker 1: How would be any different from me going to the
Speaker 1: to the training table and getting like some knives and
Speaker 1: walking around.
Speaker 8: It's no different.
Speaker 7: They're not metal knives down there, though.
Speaker 6: That's how he's gonna eat his steak.
