Speaker 1: and then it was DC incredible as he called himself.
Speaker 1: Barry Church said he was the defensive coordinator incredible. You
Speaker 1: were too huh? I was too cool for one. I
Speaker 1: had had an orange T shirt on, I had a
Speaker 1: little as on it. Standbacks dressed up as a former
Speaker 1: Washington quarterback. It looks like a Yes, we need a
Speaker 1: former one because the current one isn't getting to done. Wow,

Speaker 1: fruit right there, You got what you need. You got
Speaker 1: yours land minds that got the whole studio smell like missus, Barrett.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question. Let me ask you
Speaker 1: a question. Yes, right, we got a game this game week, right, fellas,
Speaker 1: we're about to go against Mike Zimmer, one of the
Speaker 1: highly touted blitzers in the history of the NFL. Are
Speaker 1: you gonna go through all the practice without facing the blitz?
Speaker 1: Are you not gonna be prepared for that challenge? I
Speaker 1: am gonna be. We are blitzing you right now. Temptation, brother,
Speaker 1: come on, let's pick up. It sounds like a guy
Speaker 1: who should be a coach. It was very well done.
Speaker 1: Like this clot is amazing, It's so good in the back,
Speaker 1: it's so good. You've been talking about Zeke all week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you gotta eat. You gotta pick up the blitz what
Speaker 1: I was thinking? Actually, yeah, I'm picking it up. I'm good.
Speaker 1: That's a problem. I got my fruit cup over here
Speaker 1: and my granola and water. Looks a clean hoodie too,
Speaker 1: you got on today. This was the best line of hoodies.
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys Pro Shop's ever done because they
Speaker 1: had this one, the great one that Derek wears all
Speaker 1: the time. Nice, and then I have the black one
Speaker 1: that has that same logo in the front. I love
Speaker 1: those white white you know, it's even more impressive in
Speaker 1: fact that it's still white clean there. There's only a
Speaker 1: certain demographic individuals that will wear all white hoodie, I
Speaker 1: mean all white suits about Miami type cast you know quick,
Speaker 1: I ain't well, we are here every day, all the
Speaker 1: rules out on Wait, Chris, would you just say day?
Speaker 1: I thought you're not supposed to wear a white after
Speaker 1: labor day. That's a whole that's an allhood rule right there.
Speaker 1: It's white is lennen. You can't wear white linen. That's okay, good,
Speaker 1: glad we clarify, Thank goodness for everybody listening. All right,
Speaker 1: we do have some extra news to get to from
Speaker 1: the Cowboys side of things. Dak Prescott going into yesterday
Speaker 1: really feels like I felt really felt like Dak was
Speaker 1: going to play. I mean chance he was going to play.
Speaker 1: But I was kind of thrown for a loop yesterday
Speaker 1: with the way that both he talked about it, way
Speaker 1: that Mike McCarthy talked about it, the way that Stephen
Speaker 1: Jones even talked about it. And there's an interview coming
Speaker 1: out later on Dallas cowboys dot com and on the
Speaker 1: YouTube and everything or Cowboys social channels. But rob any
Speaker 1: news on Dak and his progress to potentially being available
Speaker 1: this week. He spoke to us for twenty minutes yesterday,
Speaker 1: and I thought he was pretty candid about the whole thing,
Speaker 1: the calf, his work in practice, and I agree with you.
Speaker 1: I came out of that a little less sure about
Speaker 1: whether he's going to play in this game because the
Speaker 1: way he referred to it, he actually compared it in
Speaker 1: a certain sense to the shoulder strain in training camp, where, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think even I said this on media match yesterday,
Speaker 1: I think he said something similar during camp, like they're
Speaker 1: they're trying to protect me from myself and it's something
Speaker 1: that we don't want to linger. I'm not saying he's
Speaker 1: out for a month. I'm not saying he's out for
Speaker 1: this game necessarily, but they're obviously proceeding with caution here now.
Speaker 1: He did go through another limited portion yesterday, but he
Speaker 1: ramped it up. I think it was more of an
Speaker 1: intense workout than he had before. He wanted to push
Speaker 1: himself on Thursday and see how it went. Everything seems
Speaker 1: to be going good. But if it's close, then I
Speaker 1: don't know if they play him in this game, because
Speaker 1: as he said, and as as they've said, it's it's October.
Speaker 1: You know, it's not January. There's a long way to
Speaker 1: go here. Yeah, that one. That one kind of hurts
Speaker 1: a little bit to hear. I mean, here's the words
Speaker 1: from him specifically, he said, if it was my call
Speaker 1: and it was totally up to me, yes, but there
Speaker 1: this is something that I agree with the experts. I
Speaker 1: don't want it to linger. I don't want to miss
Speaker 1: this week after week. Are we going through this basically?
Speaker 1: And it kind of reminds me of what happened in
Speaker 1: the preseason, kind of reminds me of the shoulder injury
Speaker 1: and training camp him. It sounds like he's going back
Speaker 1: to that mindset that he had an Oxnard, which was
Speaker 1: keeping me from myself. I don't want to push myself
Speaker 1: too far as kind of what it reminds me of
Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah. Absolutely. And you know, Steve Dennis
Speaker 1: even had he was on the media match yesterday and
Speaker 1: he was like, I've i've I'm a whisperer with this
Speaker 1: kind of stuff when guys want to play but they don't,
Speaker 1: And he puts out there that if it were up
Speaker 1: to me, I'd be playing. He thinks that's a tell
Speaker 1: that just I'm tough, I want to play, don't we'll
Speaker 1: put it on me if I don't play Sunday, I
Speaker 1: don't know. We'll see, but it does sound like it's
Speaker 1: up in the air as of Friday. And look, they
Speaker 1: don't practice today. They got to walk through and then
Speaker 1: a light practice Saturday, and as he said, as Dak said,
Speaker 1: they'll probably make that decision by Saturday. So if it's
Speaker 1: Cooper rushed, then he's ready to go. I say, you're
Speaker 1: making a face like you agree with what Steve Tennis
Speaker 1: was talking about. It reminds me of back in the
Speaker 1: day when I was like in middle school or high school,
Speaker 1: the old or Matt computers. You know, when you used
Speaker 1: to play the Oregon Trail and you had to follow
Speaker 1: the bread crumbs, you know, not before that one the
Speaker 1: floppy disc ones. I remember those, Yeah, and you know
Speaker 1: that that was a bread crumb. That was a bread crumb.
Speaker 1: And as an athlete, the last thing you want people
Speaker 1: to question is your willingness to play when you know
Speaker 1: in the back of your head, or when you know
Speaker 1: you're being told that you're not going to play right
Speaker 1: or there's a high probability that you're probably not gonna play.
Speaker 1: What's your first team. That's just that's gonna naturally come
Speaker 1: out of your mouth. The first thing that is naturally
Speaker 1: gonna come out of your mouth is I mean, if
Speaker 1: it was up to me, I'll roll. Probably didn't want
Speaker 1: they probably didn't want him to say that, but that's
Speaker 1: probably indicative as what's being said to him on the
Speaker 1: back end. I in my head, I I think I
Speaker 1: already mentioned this earlier in the week. I didn't. I
Speaker 1: think it's best as just gonna let him chill. It
Speaker 1: sucks because it's a competitive game and you know these
Speaker 1: boys could play. But to that point where we foresee
Speaker 1: this team potentially going, it's probably smarter to if you
Speaker 1: were going to risk, let me say this, risk taking
Speaker 1: an l in position in the form of having your
Speaker 1: backup quarterback at the helm, This is the time to
Speaker 1: do it, because it's not worth the risk. The risk
Speaker 1: verse reward isn't there. And that's me taking the competitor
Speaker 1: out of it, because as a as a player, as
Speaker 1: you heard him say, if it was up to me,
Speaker 1: I'm on the field like, let's roll, you know, and
Speaker 1: I'll just risk it. It's no different than than freaking
Speaker 1: Hop last night did d Hop de Hop who had
Speaker 1: a strain hammy that he came into the game with.
Speaker 1: But when he got time to to actually go time
Speaker 1: in a two minute drill the last he said, Hey,
Speaker 1: put me back out there. Yeah, Like I'm like, it's
Speaker 1: worth it for me. We need this game. DA's the
Speaker 1: same way. He wants to be on that field. But
Speaker 1: the doctor's gonna probably really men, I'm having a hard
Speaker 1: time reading in between the lines on all of this.
Speaker 1: I know from us statistical strategic advantage that they have
Speaker 1: by not saying whether he's going to play or not,
Speaker 1: But I don't think that you have a backup that
Speaker 1: the other team is remotely worried about. If it turns
Speaker 1: into a game where Rush plays, then you know they're
Speaker 1: gonna rely heavily on their running game to establish anything.
Speaker 1: Um And I feel as though with Dak practicing, going
Speaker 1: through going through practice, and everyone's saying from the limited
Speaker 1: view that you have that he looks good, looks like
Speaker 1: he's he's up to speed. If there was anything there
Speaker 1: that they wouldn't have him even involved in that if
Speaker 1: he was going to be out for a while, and
Speaker 1: that's just well for a while. But but he's not
Speaker 1: doing team stuff, he's not doing competitive stuff. Yet he
Speaker 1: said he's taking team reps in the walkthroughs. But if
Speaker 1: we're just if we're just resting it, if we're saying, look,
Speaker 1: we need to get off of it and rest, have
Speaker 1: nothing happened. I also heard him say I was going
Speaker 1: to test myself today. If there's anything that was going
Speaker 1: to happen, it was gonna happen today. And it didn't.
Speaker 1: So going back to your what you were talking about
Speaker 1: about Hopkins going in, the Cardinals recognize that the NFC
Speaker 1: is competitive and going down to the edge. There's gonna
Speaker 1: be some teams that have good records that may not
Speaker 1: even make the playoffs. All right, But I believe right
Speaker 1: now the Cowboys understand that they are in the driver's
Speaker 1: seat for a lot of things. And you could possibly
Speaker 1: have home field advantage of some home games, and we
Speaker 1: are scorching hot at home, and so look, this injury
Speaker 1: comes at a bad time. If Dak doesn't play on Sunday,
Speaker 1: it's going to be interesting. The way that Kelly Moore
Speaker 1: gets Cooper rushed up to speed. I just feel like
Speaker 1: with even with the limitations that Dak would have, it
Speaker 1: would be better suited to have him out there. There's
Speaker 1: things that you could do with having him and shotgun
Speaker 1: and having Zeke and the pistol. That doesn't make him
Speaker 1: like on those design runs where he has to run
Speaker 1: all the way out there on those zone runs to
Speaker 1: get him the ball. I just feel like he gives
Speaker 1: us the best chance to win now if he is.
Speaker 1: But if he is, if he's compromised he can't protect
Speaker 1: himself in that situation, then no, you don't put your
Speaker 1: quarterback out there to go through that. But to me,
Speaker 1: it seems like he's saying instead of it being like
Speaker 1: I'm preserving myself to say no, I'll go if I
Speaker 1: can go, I think he's letting us no. Man like, Look,
Speaker 1: I'm doing everything that I can to be available on Sunday.
Speaker 1: That's the way that I'm taking. And again we may
Speaker 1: be reading into this way wrong. No, and he is,
Speaker 1: and he trusts he trusts Britt Brown. They got a
Speaker 1: great relationship. And it's not he said, Look, it's not
Speaker 1: fully my decision. It's gonna be the medical training staff,
Speaker 1: is gonna be the coaches. We're gonna do what's what's best.
Speaker 1: I will say, he I don't know. I lost strain
Speaker 1: of thought. I don't know what I'm gonna say it happens, Pee,
Speaker 1: I do it all the time and it's all good dog.
Speaker 1: But we need him. No, No, there's no doubt that
Speaker 1: you need him, right, But risk risk reward? Do you
Speaker 1: to know? Put it like this, put him in this game,
Speaker 1: you know there's a chance that he can make this
Speaker 1: thing worse. Right, that's this we all agree on that
Speaker 1: he could reinjure. He could read right, not even just reinjury.
Speaker 1: It's it's already injured right now. It's just a matter
Speaker 1: of say, let's say that let's say that he's seventy
Speaker 1: percent right now, right, but you put him in a
Speaker 1: game and all of a sudden he tears it. Is that?
Speaker 1: Is that worth it? Or would you rather just let
Speaker 1: him chill this game? Run the risk of a higher
Speaker 1: probability of you losing this game, but know that you
Speaker 1: have one hundred percent attack next week. And then then
Speaker 1: the timeline. That's where I'm asking, what is the timeline
Speaker 1: on this? It's a cap strain, right, so, I mean
Speaker 1: so so, I mean it's so intricate. There's so many
Speaker 1: different angles, right, That's what That's the thing about this.
Speaker 1: It takes one bad step and you could tweak this thing,
Speaker 1: and that's the reason why guys have to rest whenever
Speaker 1: they have hammy pools. It's the same thing. It's not
Speaker 1: you're not just going in one direction. It's not just
Speaker 1: linear right as angles or a shoulder strain or a
Speaker 1: shoulder strain. That's kind of like he said at training camp.
Speaker 1: Now I remember what I was gonna say he said
Speaker 1: in training camp, like the kind of the similar stuff,
Speaker 1: Like if it were up to me, if this were
Speaker 1: a regular season game, I would play the same kind
Speaker 1: of thing he said. If it's if it's a playoff
Speaker 1: game or something, I'm in this. I'm in this game.
Speaker 1: But he also said to your point, he said, I
Speaker 1: don't want the offense to be limited. I don't want
Speaker 1: to have a limited game plan. I want to play
Speaker 1: the way I want to play and not limit Kellen Moore.
Speaker 1: So that has to factor into it as well. It's
Speaker 1: just it just seems like it's very much up in
Speaker 1: the air right now. I wouldn't say he's ruled out um,
Speaker 1: but it also like it's day to day, like how's
Speaker 1: he feeling this morning? You know that's part of the
Speaker 1: discussion too. And we'll hear from Mike McCarthy this morning. Later,
Speaker 1: we're fifty eight hours away something like that. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're right around there, an, I mean, it's my thing
Speaker 1: is controlled reps. The reason why he's not doing team
Speaker 1: reps is control reps. You know exactly what you're gonna do.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go out here, I'm gonna play action, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna come back. I'm sitting down. IM gonna be nice
Speaker 1: and controlled. When you have to react react instinctively, that's
Speaker 1: when those those muscle fibers fire up and ask when
Speaker 1: you can piss them off. And again, it's just not
Speaker 1: worth it, man, it's not And I know Cowboys Nation
Speaker 1: doesn't want to hear that. You much rather have one
Speaker 1: hundred percent Zeke, I mean one hundred percent back next
Speaker 1: week than run the risk of holding your breath every
Speaker 1: dog on play this week. We don't know exactly the
Speaker 1: level of the strain, absolutely, but do you think like
Speaker 1: another week would help? I mean, we know it will help.
Speaker 1: We just we don't know to what degree, right, but
Speaker 1: we know that he has a better chance of being
Speaker 1: healthier right away from today than you know, if he
Speaker 1: was to take that safer approach. It sucks because we
Speaker 1: want to be competitive, but at the same time, it's
Speaker 1: all funding games until you get in the game, and
Speaker 1: now you lose Dak for the whole dog on the
Speaker 1: rest of the season or for five six weeks. And
Speaker 1: one of the things that we talked about with Michael
Speaker 1: Gallup in a calf strain is there's no need to
Speaker 1: rush him back because Ceedee lamb Amari Cooper, Cedric Wilson,
Speaker 1: Noah Brown, they're all playing well. The reason we need
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott back quickly is because you don't have that
Speaker 1: backup quarterback you feel uber confident in address it. We
Speaker 1: haven't talked about Cooper Rush a whole lot on this
Speaker 1: show this week, despite the thought that Dak Prescott may
Speaker 1: not be available, because I think to a certain extent,
Speaker 1: we all thought Dak would be available. So when we
Speaker 1: cut back on the other side of the break, what
Speaker 1: can Cooper rush to help you win on Sunday? Should
Speaker 1: he be thrust it in to starting quarterback duty when
Speaker 1: we return here from the Star Honey, big news? Gary?
Speaker 1: Are you okay? Oh? I'm not Gary anymore. I'm Jackie Flash.

Speaker 1: draft Kings pickups that you should go pick up in

Speaker 1: little draft Kings coming up in a moment and we'll
Speaker 1: have our pick them segments. We'll get ready to call
Speaker 1: in two two nine seven. The fans are doing a
Speaker 1: really good job right now picking some games they've been happens.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you later. If y'all think y'all can beat us,
Speaker 1: call call us, call us, get on the line. Eight
Speaker 1: are Island. Today is your day for the read. Listen, listen,
Speaker 1: listen eight eight eight five five two two nine seven.
Speaker 1: I want to get the number out there, but it
Speaker 1: is your day for the read. You gotta get that
Speaker 1: in there. Okay, Okay. So Cooper Rush, how big of
Speaker 1: a drop off is it from Dak Prescott? That's a
Speaker 1: loaded question. And what can he do to help you
Speaker 1: win come Sunday? What does he do well? We've seen
Speaker 1: him in limited action in the preseason, very limited action.
Speaker 1: Three career passing attempts in the regular season. So what
Speaker 1: can he do, Isaiah to help you win a game?
Speaker 1: Move the chains, don't throw ill advised passes. Make sure
Speaker 1: that we are in the right play. Vague as hell. Yeah,
Speaker 1: coach calls are run in the pass and every play. Right,
Speaker 1: you have two plays every single time. Get us in
Speaker 1: the right play. Get us in the right play based
Speaker 1: upon the coverage, based upon the front, based upon the
Speaker 1: front seven. Get us in the right play. Make sure
Speaker 1: that we have a chance every play. Secondly, when you
Speaker 1: decide to pass the ball, make sure that you're not
Speaker 1: throwing the ball into bad situations. Make sure you're not
Speaker 1: throwing it into double coverage. Make sure you're not throwing
Speaker 1: it late. I'm much rather you throw the ball out
Speaker 1: of bounds right, or run out of bounds instead of
Speaker 1: take it into that instead of having a bad, bad,
Speaker 1: ill advised throw right. Yeah, and then don't turn the
Speaker 1: ball over if you do it. If he does those
Speaker 1: three things, I think we're in. We're happy. We're happy.
Speaker 1: Give us a chance, all right, playing the devil's advocate
Speaker 1: here knowing that Mike zim coach him is gonna come
Speaker 1: after him. Yeah, And I think even in the situation
Speaker 1: like that where you're talking asking him to check out
Speaker 1: of certain things. I don't know if he'll feel comfortable
Speaker 1: doing that, especially with the with the pressure that he
Speaker 1: may be under, because they're gonna sell out at the
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage to test to see if he can
Speaker 1: actually make those throws. So that's that's all I question.
Speaker 1: If they sell out, we have a great chance to
Speaker 1: get big plays. Okay, you know what. I like that,
Speaker 1: But where our question is his ability to find it
Speaker 1: under pressure. I feel good with Dak being able to
Speaker 1: find it under pressure. Gonna come down with it, John
Speaker 1: Ban what is that? I can't do that, I mean,
Speaker 1: but look, you ask what he's gonna do. I you know,
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be limited for him. Uh. As
Speaker 1: far as his running ability, we already know that these compromise.
Speaker 1: He's not that fast at all. Uh, So we can't
Speaker 1: rely on him. He runs faster than a five flat?
Speaker 1: What does he run? As four nine three? Ah? Look
Speaker 1: at that speeds there? Rush. They don't call him rush
Speaker 1: for nothing. Take that away from quarterbacks. You can't take that.
Speaker 1: Can't take that away from him. He runs a four
Speaker 1: nine three blazing yea man if Cooper Rush is out
Speaker 1: and he rushes for a touchdown, We're gonna come back.
Speaker 1: He's built for a QB sneak. Yeah, it's gonna be great.
Speaker 1: Five Rob, How could Cooper Rush win this game if
Speaker 1: he starts? For people just joining us, we're not ruling Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're not ruling him out. Um, we'll see what happens.
Speaker 1: But I was just looking at his stats. He's played
Speaker 1: in two career regular season games, one for three for
Speaker 1: two yards, so not a lot of experience. He's been
Speaker 1: the backup for a lot of years. You know, he's
Speaker 1: been in this offense for a lot of years. Um,
Speaker 1: just I mean, really, what you guys said, like, don't
Speaker 1: make mistakes. I think one reason he got the big
Speaker 1: reason he got the job over Garrett Gilbert knowledge of
Speaker 1: the offense, comfort level, more command, and I don't think
Speaker 1: he didn't turn the ball over as much Scarrett Gilbert did.
Speaker 1: And as the backup, that's the biggest mistake you can make.
Speaker 1: Because you've got playmakers. Just play within yourself, get the
Speaker 1: ball to them and let them go make plays. And
Speaker 1: I think the game plan would have to be adjusted
Speaker 1: in that regard. Defense has got to step up. Everybody
Speaker 1: would have to step up. Dak's not playing Sunday. Not
Speaker 1: only that, even in special teams. We had a spit
Speaker 1: punt block last week. And if Cooper Russian is going
Speaker 1: to be our quarterback this week, I say, we sell
Speaker 1: out in every way on special but sell out we
Speaker 1: got we gotta sell out, We gotta get it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we gotta sell out. Did I hear that we want
Speaker 1: to have pressure on the special teams. Yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: exactly what I said. Sounds like total opposite of what
Speaker 1: I heard here a couple of weeks ago. Well, I mean,
Speaker 1: we finally, we finally got a block. We saw it work.
Speaker 1: We didn't turn that into any punt any points. Yeah,
Speaker 1: special teams can't control that, but I understand that. But
Speaker 1: I'm saying, when you don't have you don't have Dak,
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to pull everything out of your sad chell.
Speaker 1: So we needed satchels are nice? Yours is Louis mis
Speaker 1: fossil number, Yeah, fossil. Oh wow, that's that sly Yeah there, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: all right. Cooper rush ten of twelve in the Houston
Speaker 1: Texans game this is week three of the preseason. He
Speaker 1: went twin ten of twelve on two separate drives with
Speaker 1: the number one offense, the number one offense of course
Speaker 1: without Ezekiel Elliott and Amari Cooper and Ceedee Lamb at
Speaker 1: that time. But ninety seven yards in a couple of touchdowns,
Speaker 1: one forty passer rating in that game. So it got
Speaker 1: him the job. That's what won him the job. Those
Speaker 1: two drives certainly beat Garrett Gilbert, who with the same
Speaker 1: offense went through one drive or no. Two drives and
Speaker 1: went three of five for thirty yards in a seventy
Speaker 1: seven passer rating. And this in the preseason game. That's
Speaker 1: so crazy, man, Just going back to that whole backup
Speaker 1: quarterback battle, it seemed like Eric Gilbert had that one,
Speaker 1: I mean headed in the bag and just Cooper rush
Speaker 1: Sea biscuit him. Man, he came from behind. Oh that
Speaker 1: thing Natcher, I mean, And that was the game that
Speaker 1: essentially sealed the deal for him. Yeah, back snatcher man.
Speaker 1: So let's see. Yeah, I think Will Greer's active regardless.
Speaker 1: I think so too. I think they'll they'll keep three
Speaker 1: quarterbacks act with dak plays. I asked that yesterday and
Speaker 1: Isaiah said that you didn't think that was the case
Speaker 1: with what Dak said yesterday, I think kid will be
Speaker 1: the case. I think it completely flipped flop from what
Speaker 1: we saw yesterday. All Right, we've got a new segment
Speaker 1: here for talking Cowboys. We did this a little bit
Speaker 1: last year. It's a little more informal at the point
Speaker 1: this year, but we have your daily fantasy Underdog. We're
Speaker 1: gonna pick a player each this week and we're gonna
Speaker 1: talk about why they could be in store for a
Speaker 1: big game against the upcoming opponent. We will do this
Speaker 1: on the second segment of every Friday show from here
Speaker 1: on out. We'll probably get some graphics at some point
Speaker 1: to throw through there as well. But we do love
Speaker 1: our friends over at Draft Kings. They do great work.
Speaker 1: So heck ma, I'll let you start things off your
Speaker 1: underdog to come in and perform. And by underdog, I
Speaker 1: don't even mean necessarily a player that you haven't heard
Speaker 1: of or a player that is under the radar up
Speaker 1: from a talking standpoint, more of a let's let's throw
Speaker 1: this guy in there. He's gonna have a big game.
Speaker 1: He's in store for a big game despite maybe the
Speaker 1: odds being stacked against him a little bit. I'm going
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard t peasy. I'm going Tony Pollard. I think
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard can break this game wide open for the Cowboys.
Speaker 1: I think he and Ezekiel Elliott are going to be
Speaker 1: pivotal and in this game with Cooper Rush at quarterback,
Speaker 1: if that is essentially the case, even with dak in,
Speaker 1: it's going to be the same thing. We're gonna have
Speaker 1: to establish the running game. I know a lot of
Speaker 1: the people that are so anxious about passing throwing at
Speaker 1: fifty eight times a game. I don't think that this
Speaker 1: is going to be that kind of game, especially with
Speaker 1: the Vikings leading the NFL and sacks. I think we
Speaker 1: want to protect our quarterback. We want to establish dumb
Speaker 1: be dominant at the line of scrimmage, and I believe
Speaker 1: Tony Poler can break this thing open. That change of
Speaker 1: pace is going to be crucial, yep, especially with a
Speaker 1: loaded box. Having you get to the edge is gonna
Speaker 1: be nuts crucial for the Cowboys to be able to
Speaker 1: have some offensive rolling, whether Dad plays or not. So
Speaker 1: I agree with you there. I like that pick a lot.
Speaker 1: Schultzenegger going with the Schultzenegger. I like that Schultzenegger. I'm
Speaker 1: going with l Dalton Schultz I think that he's been
Speaker 1: a very consistent player for us. He has obviously been
Speaker 1: a back snatcher in terms of the tight end room.
Speaker 1: He's coming taking it and taking that job. And he
Speaker 1: is mister reliable. He's getting I'm about averaging five to
Speaker 1: six catches a game. He seems to always be around
Speaker 1: that seventy yard mark. I think that against a team
Speaker 1: like Minnesota, where their their strength, that their team is
Speaker 1: at the second level, I think he's gonna have a
Speaker 1: lot of ability to get to get free I'm and
Speaker 1: be an outlet for us, especially in a mic against
Speaker 1: a Mike Zimmer type defense. He is just a sure
Speaker 1: thing right there that you can put right in the
Speaker 1: middle of run him on out rouse. He is mister
Speaker 1: dooit all um. So I expect him, especially in the
Speaker 1: red zone, to be our guy. Remember your text last
Speaker 1: night or text group? What about it? Did I say,
Speaker 1: don't take yours? Yeah, I'm so so. We We had
Speaker 1: just pulled in the curtain back a little bit. I
Speaker 1: laughed at the message a minute ago. He got distracted,
Speaker 1: pulled the curtain back. Me and heckmar are in the
Speaker 1: booth last night at the high school game, and I
Speaker 1: say he asked me. He's like, hey, what about this
Speaker 1: draft king segment? I send a text message. I'm like, hey, yeah, everybody,
Speaker 1: you send in your your picks, sending your picks, and
Speaker 1: and heck next to me, he's like, oh, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick Zeke. I'm gonna do Zeke, and then
Speaker 1: put Zeke in the group message with an exclamation point
Speaker 1: with like emphasis yeah. And then and then Tony or
Speaker 1: Rob goes Tony Pollard like right after that, and and
Speaker 1: Heckman goes, man, that was a good pick. I like,
Speaker 1: I like, Tony, I mean, hey, that's cool. I would
Speaker 1: never do that. I know you would. I did. And dude,
Speaker 1: that completely you know for that, I want you to
Speaker 1: do the read please. Oh I got it, Okay, I
Speaker 1: got it. That's because you're better at it. Anyway. I'm
Speaker 1: sorry I did that to you because ze Zeke's not
Speaker 1: under the radar. I understand. I mean, I understand, but
Speaker 1: Tony's Tony's a good pick. You know what he you
Speaker 1: know what he got last year? It gets Minnesota five
Speaker 1: carries sixty yards, who touchdown forty two yard run. Let's
Speaker 1: share him. Change the pace those runs deffinitely, bam. Change
Speaker 1: the pace. Yeah, me and you though. I like you
Speaker 1: guys thinking right, And for anybody out there that's picking,
Speaker 1: it's mighty for DraftKings. I think Paula is a great pick,
Speaker 1: but I think he's gonna kill him with the passing
Speaker 1: and in the receiving game. I don't see it being
Speaker 1: on the ground. I see it being as a receiver
Speaker 1: because these guys have are bigger linebackers that don't move
Speaker 1: well in space right and there. I don't think they
Speaker 1: can really stick him man to man. So I think
Speaker 1: you put TP out there and yeah, he still eats,
Speaker 1: but I don't think it's in a way in what
Speaker 1: you think about. That's why Schultz is gonna be so
Speaker 1: dangerous destroy as well. Yeah, and when when do do?
Speaker 1: No one wants to talk about Schultz as being elite.
Speaker 1: I understand that, and he's getting what he's him because
Speaker 1: of the guys that are around him. But you can't
Speaker 1: deny the catches. I mean what he's averaging per game
Speaker 1: and how he's what he's averaging in the reds I
Speaker 1: mean as far as a possession receiver and in the
Speaker 1: red zone, he is our red zone threat. Let be
Speaker 1: no second guessing that he's our red zone dude. So
Speaker 1: when does he start ascending into the level of elite? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's a good question. I don't think
Speaker 1: we can put our hand on that for any position.
Speaker 1: It's just it's just a matter of consistency, right, and
Speaker 1: when he's doing that right now, I think that if
Speaker 1: he continues on the path that he's on, we don't expect.
Speaker 1: I think when you think about tight ends, you think
Speaker 1: about you think about you think about guys that can
Speaker 1: break it out right now, right and not the old
Speaker 1: screw tight ends like the Gonzalez is in a way
Speaker 1: to the world. Now, you have to put those guys
Speaker 1: in the category. Okay, who can catch that thing and
Speaker 1: get some yack. Yeah, Yeah, that's what that's what that's
Speaker 1: that's kind of where your mind goes. He's not that guy,
Speaker 1: but he is that sure thing. He has strong hands,
Speaker 1: he does a great job in the blocking game, and
Speaker 1: he is our red zone guy. Now when we get
Speaker 1: in the red zone, we are looking for shots. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you saw and you saw last week Belichick, because
Speaker 1: two weeks ago, Belichick, when we got down in the
Speaker 1: reds on what he did, doubled him up. Yeah, sack, no,
Speaker 1: one else has penned on that, so I expect Coachy
Speaker 1: him to do a little bit similar. But Lele would
Speaker 1: be a right tackle will be good, I think. So yeah,
Speaker 1: is that your Is that your bold prediction under the radars?
Speaker 1: I just see no way that Lee Collins is standing
Speaker 1: on the sideline at to begin this game. I just
Speaker 1: don't He's not gonna know he's a tackle. He is
Speaker 1: a tackle based playing his wife Guarden, he's playing. I
Speaker 1: don't think he starts his game as a tackle. I
Speaker 1: put that on tape. He does not start this game
Speaker 1: as our right tay he's gone, and even with him
Speaker 1: missing the entire season last year, you're gonna bring him back,
Speaker 1: go through all that rehab and everything that he did.
Speaker 1: He's the right tackle, and then all of a sudden
Speaker 1: you're gonna toss in the left guard because Connor Williams
Speaker 1: is obviously averaging more. But put the script on that,
Speaker 1: Are you gonna take him through all that and then
Speaker 1: have still go through all that be a consistent player
Speaker 1: players really as well as he has, and just to
Speaker 1: pull him about the game and say, oh sorry, you
Speaker 1: don't get paid him. You talk about culture all the time,
Speaker 1: and what culture is everybody in the in the locker
Speaker 1: room communicating and they all know each other. Those guys
Speaker 1: in the locker room know that Lael is better than
Speaker 1: Terrence Steel when he's when he's ready. Yeah, you don't
Speaker 1: think there's anything to what they've said that he needs
Speaker 1: a ramp up period maybe or they just need to
Speaker 1: see where he's act conditioningwise, because he's missed so much football.
Speaker 1: I mean, some people don't buy it. Some people think
Speaker 1: this is a message to him. Um. I think there
Speaker 1: is some validity to that he has missed a lot
Speaker 1: of time. And maybe he's not starting this week. Maybe
Speaker 1: next week is different. Next week he's a starter. This week,
Speaker 1: I don't see him being a starter. I do not
Speaker 1: see him being our right tackle at the beginning of
Speaker 1: this game. I don't. I don't think think I would
Speaker 1: agree with you there. And you know what if the ball,
Speaker 1: if the line balls out this week, what's you're why
Speaker 1: would you change? You know? It's a it's a good
Speaker 1: problem to have, man. I get you. He is he's
Speaker 1: I'm gonna join you, Elizabeth. I mean, I mean, but
Speaker 1: what I do foresee I do foresee us right. It's
Speaker 1: like we did against the Giants, I believe it. Oh no,
Speaker 1: against the Patriots, we came out in thirteen personnel, right
Speaker 1: and jarwe got a touchdown, correct, all right, so thirteen
Speaker 1: personnel plus we had an extra. It was a big
Speaker 1: personnel we hadn't governed in there as an extra alignment.
Speaker 1: I do foresee us doing something like that with those
Speaker 1: big packages and bringing and bringing him in and those
Speaker 1: big boys, right, and just beating these guys down and downhill. Um,
Speaker 1: But it's really difficult. It's to catch twenty two. And
Speaker 1: that's why we don't get paid to make those decisions.
Speaker 1: But you know, to take a player who has worked
Speaker 1: his butt off through camp. To take a player who
Speaker 1: has worked his butt off through these first six games
Speaker 1: and say, oh, sorry, the man is back. You go
Speaker 1: sit on the sideline. You've been great for us, that's
Speaker 1: very difficult to do. That's the speech. That's what you want.
Speaker 1: That's the speech. Dude. It happened. It happened to Romo
Speaker 1: and twenty quarterbacks, different quarterbacks, different quarterback. Is still happen.
Speaker 1: It still happened. Agreed, that's different, right, that that position
Speaker 1: is different. When you start talking about we started talking
Speaker 1: about lineman that need continuity with the guys that are
Speaker 1: next to them, being able to communicate, being able to
Speaker 1: pass off blocks, being able to do all those things,
Speaker 1: handle the stunts right, staying in the hit pocket. No
Speaker 1: one of these guys are gonna go away. No, he's
Speaker 1: gonna come to all the different calls. That is something
Speaker 1: that you don't want to mess with. So as we
Speaker 1: talk about protecting Dak right, and you're gonna throw Collins
Speaker 1: in the mix just right now when all he's had
Speaker 1: his practice reps. Yeah, he's a he's a Veteran's I
Speaker 1: hear you about wins the last how many games has
Speaker 1: he played in the last two years? So I said,
Speaker 1: I if Tyren Smith, who's been dealing with the neck issues,
Speaker 1: needs some rest, he goes out. It's not a suspension
Speaker 1: or nothing like that. He just needs some rest and
Speaker 1: tying and sky and still whomever is over there at
Speaker 1: left tackle. Once Smith says that he's healthy enough, and
Speaker 1: even if we win those games, Smith goes back and
Speaker 1: he's starting. There's no question about that. He gets ramped
Speaker 1: up through practice and you start him. I understand maybe
Speaker 1: there's some things happening behind the scenes where they're a
Speaker 1: little upset with him, and rightfully so. But when the
Speaker 1: talent is undeniable for those I'm not saying that the
Speaker 1: continuity doesn't matter either. I'm just saying the talent is undeniable.
Speaker 1: And you know that Leo Collins is a better right
Speaker 1: tackle than Terrence Steele. This particularly when he's healthy, when
Speaker 1: he's healthy, and when he's when he's conditions. When he
Speaker 1: was healthy, he was healthy, healthy against Tampa. He played
Speaker 1: the first game. And how did he miss the next
Speaker 1: five games? Yeah? Right, we understandand happened. Something happened. That's
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. But to take somebody who's been
Speaker 1: doing their job what you've asked of Terrence Steel, he
Speaker 1: has done that. It's not like, oh he's been doing
Speaker 1: an okay job. He'd been doing a hell of a job.
Speaker 1: He's been doing a hell of a job. And yes, Loo,
Speaker 1: And I'm not This is me saying Lyo Collins is
Speaker 1: the better right tackle when he is in shape, when
Speaker 1: he's ready to roll. Is he ready to play right now?
Speaker 1: Is he ready to roll? I can't. I can't sit
Speaker 1: here and say that he is. So I think that
Speaker 1: you work him into the game plan. But I don't
Speaker 1: think that you start the game and say you're a
Speaker 1: right tackle, protect the front side of that or rush. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like giving him a participation in trophy and I
Speaker 1: hate those in little league sports, Like everybody gets a
Speaker 1: rhythm ribbon. Dude, if you didn't win it, you don't
Speaker 1: get a ribbon. You don't get the trophy of the champions. Gip.
Speaker 1: You could say the same exact thing though about Lyo
Speaker 1: Collins right now and do his job. He didn't do
Speaker 1: his job. He got in trouble, got the five game suspension,
Speaker 1: he appealed it, he came back, and guess what, Terren
Speaker 1: Steele's playing better right now. They're not gonna put a
Speaker 1: right tackle out there if they don't believe that's the
Speaker 1: best play for protecting their quarterback. They're not gonna make
Speaker 1: it a political thing. You don't give him the contract
Speaker 1: if you don't think that he's that Kyle they I'm
Speaker 1: not saying Lyle Collins is that or is not that.
Speaker 1: I'm saying Terren Steele is that? Right now I'm saying
Speaker 1: I'm not saying Terren Steele is a better player than
Speaker 1: Lyle Collins. I'm saying in weekend of the twenty twenty
Speaker 1: one season. Terren Steele to their point, if he's out there,
Speaker 1: he's the better player in there, has asked that, right now,
Speaker 1: who's better today, Steel or Collins? Collins today right now
Speaker 1: being without being in game condition. Yeah, today, right now,
Speaker 1: without being in a game shape. I'm not We don't know.
Speaker 1: You don't know. I don't know if it's Oh, I
Speaker 1: know it's not game shape. I know you say for
Speaker 1: five weeks he just completely it's not a game Okay,
Speaker 1: he guess was a game shape. He's better practice shape.
Speaker 1: He's better we talk about games. Damn well, if he's
Speaker 1: just I'm just I'm just being dead serious. Is the
Speaker 1: game and practice two different things? The intensity level is,
Speaker 1: the competitiveness is two different levels. Just don't understand how
Speaker 1: y'all don't see. Maybe he's active as the backup left guard,
Speaker 1: backup tackle, active as the backup Collins and then hey,
Speaker 1: Daniel Hunters out there, see how the game goes. I'm serious,
Speaker 1: I mean, like he's he's there for depth and competition
Speaker 1: at the moment, and we'll see how it goes. I
Speaker 1: don't know where that is. You put Leo out there.
Speaker 1: Let's just say that right, there's nothing nothing wrong with that, right,
Speaker 1: If it's just no, it might take time to get
Speaker 1: him to the level of where he where we expect
Speaker 1: him to be. If you put him out there, I
Speaker 1: don't think he's Jack who stole the man on the
Speaker 1: spot as soon as he steps on the field, right,
Speaker 1: But if you put Leo out there, what does he
Speaker 1: have to do in order for you to pull him?
Speaker 1: I mean, have a dreadful game, and I'm saying, what
Speaker 1: is that though? When you give up sacks um, you know,
Speaker 1: completely miss blocks? Those are those are things that I
Speaker 1: think will get you yank. But when's the last time
Speaker 1: we saw a game where Leo Collins did that? I'm
Speaker 1: just asking a question that guess gave you an answer.
Speaker 1: But then there's that's that's all I'm basing it all.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think talent trump's that And this isn't
Speaker 1: one of those things where we're in high school. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna punsch you for the first half because you didn't
Speaker 1: go to class. I mean, these guys aren't acquired boys.
Speaker 1: And let's come on, man, there's no perfect people out here.
Speaker 1: If you're mad at him because of what he did
Speaker 1: and you feel like he was being irresponsible and there's
Speaker 1: a cast, a bad shadow over the organization. Okay, we've
Speaker 1: had those situations in the past, but let's not punish
Speaker 1: everybody by continuing down this road. We have a healthy
Speaker 1: Leo Collins. Play him, find him if you're mad at him. Yeah. No,
Speaker 1: it's a great point. I don't think the political side
Speaker 1: of it, and I call it politics, but it's more
Speaker 1: of just locker room antics. I don't think that should
Speaker 1: play into it. It needs to be the better player
Speaker 1: that's out there playing. And if it's Lyle Collins, it's
Speaker 1: Lyle Collins. If it's Terrence Steele, it's Terren Steele. There
Speaker 1: can't be any off the field stuff that leaks into
Speaker 1: the starting group. You cannot have that happen no matter what.
Speaker 1: So I'm a little in between both of Get him
Speaker 1: in shape, all right. When we come back, we've got
Speaker 1: I pick him. Say it with your chest. Friday continues

Speaker 1: think I go ahead and go with the football team.
Speaker 1: And I also I ran out of games that were
Speaker 1: really tight, so we're gonna have to pick this game.
Speaker 1: I feel like this is probably gonna be a clean
Speaker 1: sweep across the board. But the home team has been
Speaker 1: playing well. The Titans on the road at the Colts.
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry one hundred and nineteen rushing yards per game
Speaker 1: in six games as a starter against Indianapolis, so he
Speaker 1: has run all over the Colts defense throughout his career.
Speaker 1: B will let you start on this one he got
Speaker 1: or this one I think gonna be closer than most
Speaker 1: people think. Um, I think I'm gonna go ahead and
Speaker 1: pick the upset and go with Indianapolis on this one.
Speaker 1: Never mind, I do not think this is gonna be
Speaker 1: across the board. Thank you very much, beat good pick
Speaker 1: heck one, Ah, you just said how Derek and Henry

Speaker 1: gonna be basic again. Go with the Titans. Now, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go with the Titans here as well. Would you

Speaker 1: How about to say you didn't run? I came out.
Speaker 1: It wasn't the four ninety three Cooper Rushi definitely wouldn't
Speaker 1: have been that. They don't call him rush for nothing,
Speaker 1: all right, Cowboys. At the Vikings, Dallas leads the NFL
Speaker 1: and points per game in total yards per game this season.
Speaker 1: Unsure whether or not Dak Prescott will play, But there
Speaker 1: is no such thing as an ultimatum on this show.
Speaker 1: It is trade up, win or lose. Pick The Cowboys

Speaker 1: being that we got draft Kings, Draft Kings. You would
Speaker 1: y'all would have to pay out so much money for

Speaker 1: lined it up. That's all. This is actually Barry. It's
Speaker 1: just Church Church. Yes, the bee from Ohio. This is

Speaker 1: I put in pencil? Mm? No, Okay, who you got, Kyle.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do the same thing. I'm just I'm gonna
Speaker 1: pick Minnesota just because of the uncertainty of quarterback. And
Speaker 1: even if Dak Prescott plays, I think stuff game it's
Speaker 1: gonna be tough regardless, and so I think I'm gonna
Speaker 1: stay safe here. Business decision. I'm gonna pick the Vikings

Speaker 1: feeling about this one, but I still felt even with
