When we 12 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: walked into this studio today, Isaiah looked at me, Yeah, 13 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,680 Speaker 1: that's right, and he had this half finished bottle of 14 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: turn Up. Turn Up is a great way to put it. 15 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: Let's the sponsor be careful exactly. I'm not gonna say. 16 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say the sponsor because it was I 17 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: don't think it's anything really even a big name. It's 18 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: about to go crazy. Boys. People in the fitness industry 19 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: know that the name. Uh, he gave it to me 20 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: and was like, finish it. That's right, and it's it's 21 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,559 Speaker 1: supposed to be like pre workout, like I up tick 22 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: and yeah, I finished it. So let's see this is 23 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: this is a social experiment happening right before you're very 24 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: at I finish it. Probably three minutes ago. I chugged 25 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 1: it all in one sitting. He definitely has about eleven 26 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: minutes left before he just started doing the fourth So 27 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: let's thanks start popping like scanners. Let's see what happens zero. 28 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: But the next already kind of late, little jittery to 29 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: me a little bit, Yeah, a little bit. It's probably 30 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: going over the rail here, buddy. It's probably because I'm 31 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: nervous about what I just got into my lley. He's 32 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: gonna start growling at me. Isaiah's up, run to the bathroom. 33 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: We know why. It's time to play the game. Yes, gentlemen, 34 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: how are we doing? Doing fantastic? You gotta keep it 35 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: hot with you, but we're doing well. You know, I'm 36 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: I'm nervous. I'm not gonna lie to you. We're gonna 37 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 1: see how it's going. Because Isaiah can handle that stuff. 38 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: He's got the body mask to do it. I'm just 39 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: I'm over here in the corner. You really did go 40 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: buttoms up on it. I like that. Are you struggling 41 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: like a man? Are you tired? No? I feel I 42 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: actually feel fine. You didn't need a jolt. I've been 43 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: up for a little bit. I've got my coffee in 44 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: this morning, early, I don't even have it with me, 45 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: my black rifle. I had it at home this morning. Uh, 46 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: let's get stuff. Pooky from New Jake City just be 47 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: calling me so. Cowboys Eagles one of the biggest divisional 48 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: matchups that we've seen in quite some time. And we'll 49 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: talk about that coming up in a minute. But Rob 50 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: Phillips hit us with some news and notes early on 51 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys back on the practice field, Yes, back to practice. 52 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: A couple news and notes. Micah Parsons Defensive Player of 53 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: the Week for the NFC. He's only been the best 54 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 1: player in the NFL defensively league. Yeah, say that again, 55 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: Micah Parsons. What was the part after that? He's only 56 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: been the best defensive player in the in the NFL season, 57 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: maybe the pound for pound player period. He really deserved 58 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: this one because he did play three plus quarters with 59 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: a growing injury, and we'll see what his status is today, 60 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: how much work he gets done. I think they feel 61 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: pretty good about him playing this week. One roster move 62 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: practice squad addition at the tight end position Seth Green, 63 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: former Houston Texan former. I think he's from Allen, just 64 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: up the road here. Yeah, went to Houston for college. 65 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: He takes the spot of Tucker Addington the second long 66 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: snap that they had on the practice squad last week. 67 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: They're pretty banged up at tight end. We know that 68 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz only played ten snaps that pc el injury 69 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: flared up on him in the game. UM Jake Ferguson 70 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: was on the injury report last week. Sean mcun's been 71 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: banged up at times. Uh. They need depth at tight end, 72 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 1: so that's something to watch. I can eat some peanut 73 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: butter and make weight, you'll be right back at it. Minimum. 74 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, get minimum one point two. Who oh 75 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: your boy, God me. Now, if you end up getting 76 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: the VET minimum and you sign as a tight end 77 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: over there, I think we need a portion of that. 78 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: We need to cut a chat. So I was talking 79 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: with some of the staff last week prior to the game, 80 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: and they were saying, we maybe shouldn't have played Dalton 81 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: Schultz as much as we did in the in the 82 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: Washington game, maybe we shouldn't have played him as much. 83 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: But he's good to go. This is gonna be fine. 84 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: He's he's back to back to being healthy, back to 85 00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: be and ready to go. And then like Rob just said, 86 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: ten snaps pcl flares up and they had had some 87 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: some things drawn up at a couple of times for 88 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: Peyton Hindershot, for Jake Ferguson as guys in the receiving game. 89 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: It didn't really work out because, like we talked about, 90 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: nobody outside a Ceedee Lamb and Noah Brown had a reception. 91 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: But it's interesting to me to think, now that Dalton 92 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: Scholtz is out, do they really have a struggle for 93 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 1: a wide receiver or at least a pass catcher. I 94 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: should say at tight end because Ferguson hasn't necessarily shown 95 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: it yet as a pass catcher. Hindershot has the ability, 96 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: but he's been limited to this point. I'm going with 97 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: Peyton himnder Shot. I'm gonna call him hymnder Shot. You know, Sholtz. 98 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: We talked about this wind Shots initially got injured pcls. 99 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 1: They need Risks to heal. He missed only one game. 100 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: We also discussed why he would try to manage through 101 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: the pain and get back. Obviously he's under a franchise tag. 102 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: He's got the two young gunners behind him, Ferguson and 103 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: pick Hindershot. You know, okay, But that said, he reaggravates 104 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: Fergie's dealing with a little something. Although Fergie did playing 105 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: sixty four percent of the snaps, but he missed a 106 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: practice because of a knee injury. Hindershot right now, outside 107 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: of the new addition to seth Green is your only 108 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 1: fully healthy tight end and he's proven that he can 109 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: make plays down the field. So does he need to 110 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: improve in his run blocking, Yes he does. But as 111 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 1: far as being able to separate, and I said this 112 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: before when it comes to Hindershot, there is not a 113 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: tight end on this roster. There's not a tight end 114 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: on several rosters that can separate the way that young 115 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: man can separate like his way he breaks out of 116 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: routes and his feet, his quickness, he separates like a receiver. 117 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: If he ever truly adds run blocking and pass blocking 118 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: to his to his Arsenal. He's going to be dangerous, 119 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: but in the immediate it has to be hindershot if 120 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,679 Speaker 1: you're trying to find another receiving weapon for Cooper Cup 121 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: and then eventually Dak Prescott. I don't disagree with you, 122 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: just think that, you know, as you mentioned by the way, Yeah, yeah, 123 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: probably do that. Cooper Rush. I don't disagree with you. 124 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: I actually agree with you. The only problem is, as 125 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: I mentioned that yesterday, Kellen Moore is going to have 126 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: to open up this playbook. The number one priority has 127 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: been keeping Cooper Rush safe and protecting him, which is 128 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: why you haven't seen a whole lot of successful passes 129 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: going on, because these guys have been staying in to block. 130 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: A lot of the passes that are going down the 131 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: field aren't high precision passes or just some drops too 132 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: on some of the balls that he has delivered. But 133 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,239 Speaker 1: there are not a lot of high precision passes because 134 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: you're having to try to push things down the field 135 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: for when you do take your shots, you're blocking it 136 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: up and trying to ensure that he has the time 137 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: to deliver the ball with high accuracy to get back 138 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: to Dallas's office. Yes, they check one box last week 139 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: by rushing the ball over thirty times. That's freaking awesome. Okay, 140 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: now we know what comes off of that. Play action 141 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: comes off of that. Are you willing to let these 142 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: tight ends now that are banged up right and let 143 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:08,239 Speaker 1: Hindershot get out in routes at the exposure their possible 144 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: risk of Cooper Rush being under pressure. That's the question 145 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: that they're going to be posed with because that is 146 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: the response that they they need in order to generate 147 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: some offense here. You can't just run the ball and 148 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: run two main concepts. It's it's not a thing. It's 149 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: not it's not a thing unless you just simply just 150 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: wipe everybody off the planet with your running game, which 151 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: I don't think we're there yet. I think they were 152 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: persistent last week, but they're not too old Dallas Cowboys. 153 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: We just hand the ball off and just and just 154 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: beat them down to an entire game. They're gonna have 155 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: to get out and run some routes, and to do that, 156 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to risk Uber Rush being under pressure 157 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: against this front, which is maybe the best total front 158 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: they will have faced this this whole year. Tom Pellaceo 159 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: from the NFL Network who's also plugged in around here, 160 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: said Schultz didn't have a new injury or damage. As 161 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: long as he gets through the week, he should be good, 162 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: good to go on Sunday. That's something to watch though, Like, 163 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's as severe as the PCL 164 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: that Zeke had last year, but think about how limited 165 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: Zeke was the whole year. Like No, C just said 166 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: it requires rest, and there's no rest. I mean, you 167 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: get a bye week here in about three weeks, but 168 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: other than that, you gotta keep going. So he's gonna 169 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: try to play through it, I'm sure, but yeah, it 170 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: could be Hendershot Ferguson and you know you're probably looking 171 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: at potentially calling up Seth Greener mcun if he's good 172 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: to go to. I just I don't I don't like. 173 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: It's never a good thing for somebody who's been injured 174 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: a lot. Okay, it's never a good thing when somebody 175 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,439 Speaker 1: does something in football and then stops and looks at 176 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: the body part that's actually bothering them. Like you try 177 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 1: to shake it off and he's like, ah, man, that 178 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: something is right, you know, saying you go to the 179 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: sideline and talk to the trainer, talk to the doctor's language. Yeah, 180 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: but when you stop and you start like messing with 181 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 1: your knee, looking at it, like, what's wrong with you? 182 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: What's going on in here? You wish you had X 183 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 1: ray vision because you're doing talking to it. That's airby. 184 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: I mean, we were in the studio watching it. He 185 00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: stopped his route and he's just like looking at it. 186 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: He's messing with his knee, and I'm like, ooh, it's 187 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: not good. It's not good, and I'm I'm hoping that 188 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: the reporters are true, but it's it's It doesn't give 189 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: you a sense of hope, and I hate that for him, 190 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: especially this year. This is a huge year for him. 191 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 1: Not only was it a big hit for Dak to 192 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: go out because he is Dak's guy and he's his 193 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: DA you know, security blanket. We thought that he would 194 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: be Cooper Russians security blanket. Found out that Norah Brown 195 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: is his security blanket. So not only did he have 196 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: that big hit in terms of Dak not feeding him 197 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: the ball for this long duration at the time, now 198 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 1: he's hit with an injury. It's a double whammy for 199 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: kind of going back to what you said a few 200 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: episodes ago, Dalton is definitively Dak Prescott's guy. But now 201 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: when Dak comes back, you were asking if Dalton's gonna 202 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: get his targets not healthy enough? Logically yes, but he's 203 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: not healthy so maybe not. So you know, it's not 204 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: looking too promising for Shot unless he can kind of 205 00:10:55,640 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: heal up on the job. But we've seen as recently 206 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: is Ezekie Elliot in twenty twenty one healing up on 207 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: the job when it's a spring pcl. It's just those 208 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: two things don't marry well. And this is why guys 209 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: hate the franchise tag. Oh no doubt, no, it's true. 210 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: This is why when you when the fans out there like, oh, 211 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: I'll just go out there and sign the contract your 212 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: makeup to make all this money this one year. This 213 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: is why people. I mean it's guaranteed and contracts year 214 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: to year or not guaranteed, but you get that lump 215 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: sum of guaranteed money that is a lot more than 216 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: ten point nine million or whatever he got. So if 217 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: you don't think that he's losing money right now, well 218 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: he at the moment, he's losing future revenue at the moment. Well, 219 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: because you think about it, if you come back next year. 220 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: The Cowboys could tag him, but with his production this year, 221 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: or at least the injuries, they probably won't. They're not 222 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: gonna go and he can't come last year. Yeah, unless 223 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: he just goes on. He's still never had a one 224 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: hundred yard receiving game in his career. He's never had one, 225 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: so to this point point, even if he were to 226 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: come in and explode, it would be for like eight 227 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: catches eighty yards and maybe a touchdown, maybe two if 228 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: he gets lucky. So that's not even ms. Yeah, in 229 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: terms of the ceiling that we've seen from Dalton Schultz, 230 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: he would have to really go off to even get 231 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: close to the numbers he had last year, which is 232 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 1: what he was pushing for contract wise. Anyways, you brought 233 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: something up barely. This is a league wide conversation, but 234 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 1: scoring is down in the NFL at the moment. You're 235 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: at forty two points per game, which is about five 236 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: or six points less than it is normally on average, 237 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,319 Speaker 1: and that's combined points per game, not just per team. 238 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: So scoring is down across the board in the NFL, 239 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: and a big reason for that has been the lack 240 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: of play or the lack of effectiveness in offensive line play. 241 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: Throughout the season, offensive lines, not only Withoud the Dallas Cowboys, 242 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 1: but across the league have not been good. And that's 243 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: a byproduct of college football in the way that the 244 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: spread offense is gone for the last ten two or 245 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 1: five to ten years or so in college ball, and 246 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: now all those guys are making it into the NFL 247 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: and they're having to relearn the position and doing it 248 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: do it a different way. Good point. So with that 249 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: being said, we're seeing a lot of tight ends around 250 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: the league having to max protect, having to come in 251 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: and block more than being a receiver. Where it seemed 252 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: like with the Kelsey's and the Kittles and the Wallers 253 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: of the world, we're moving the tight end position into 254 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: a past catching heavy situation. Feels like this year that's 255 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: reverted backwards and you haven't seen those high end tight ends. 256 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 1: Even Kelsey the other day he had four touchdown grabs. 257 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: He had like five catches, like that was it. It 258 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: was all in the red zone. That was the only 259 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: time he was targeted. Is this a change in the 260 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: NFL this year that we're seeing that's going to continue 261 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 1: forward because of the lack of offensive line depth in 262 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: the NFL, and tight ends are having to make up 263 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,959 Speaker 1: for that. That's probably part of it. I think we're 264 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: seeing it magnified here, and Isaiah spoke about it just 265 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: because of the situation the Cowboys are specifically and without 266 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 1: Dak and without Tyrann Smith, and they have a young 267 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: player at left tackle and Tyler Smith. I also think 268 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: I think defensers are just adjusting in general to what 269 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: this style of offense, the more spread out stuff. They're saying, Okay, fine, 270 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 1: I mean we saw what the what defenses did to 271 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: the Cowboys last year. What defensives are doing to the 272 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: best quarterbacks in the league at the Pat Mahomes, the 273 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: Justin Herberts, it's like, fine, we're gonna we're gonna zone 274 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: it up, We're gonna keep everything in front of us. 275 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: We're not gonna give you great stuff down the field. 276 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: And it's forcing offenses to be more plotting and methodical, 277 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: and it's not as fun. It's not as fun. But 278 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: that's been the defensive adjustment I think in general that 279 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: we've seen from defenses around the league, and that's to me, 280 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: that's one reason why scoring is down, and and that 281 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: does put more emphasis on your running game and having 282 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: to be more effective that way to get yardage because 283 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: this stuff over the top, it's kind of boring, but 284 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: I mean it's in a league that that is tilted 285 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: more towards the past. Defense has got to do something. Yeah, 286 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: I mean I have two things to say to that. One, 287 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: that shirt is phenomenal. That Peach, the way it just 288 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: jumps off that blue was just fantastic. Feels kind of 289 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: make sure but really bring out your eyes. Yeah, I 290 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: just had to put it out there for those that 291 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: are just listening to the audio only, check out YouTube video. 292 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: You got to see rob shirt. It's just it's fantastic. Um. 293 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: But to that point, I think it's everything in the NFL, 294 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: and and all you guys can agree, particularly as said 295 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: here having played in the league. Everything is cyclical, right, 296 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: So it went through a phase where offense was just shreddened, 297 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: defenses just all over the place. You know, the rules 298 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: helped legislate that into place as well. You can't really 299 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: touch a quarterback list not that's a whole different conversation, Christian. 300 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: You can't, you can't put hands or receivers, etcetera. So 301 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: eventually what was going to happen is what we're seeing 302 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: happening now is to Rob's point, defenses and defensive coordators. 303 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: They started to adjust for an offenses and started to 304 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: adjust and whom they bring in personnel wise via of 305 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: the draft and free agency to account for these high 306 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: powered offenses. The Patrick mahomes is of the world and 307 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: and you know Green Bay when Davante Adams was there, 308 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: those types of offenses. But so yes, to answer your question, 309 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: it's going to, I believe, continue for the foreseeable future. 310 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: But again it's cyclical. Eventually offenses will then adapt and 311 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: then it will again become an offensive driven league. But 312 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: for right now, is that happens this year? Yeah, I 313 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: don't know that it will happen as soon as this year, 314 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: because you're talking about defenses like the Cowboys, the forty 315 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: nine Ers, I mean the Eagles for example. I mean, 316 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: there are several teams in the NFC alone that can 317 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: shut down some of these high powered offenses. So I 318 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: think it's going to take a couple more seasons or 319 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: so before we see that the needles start to move 320 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 1: back in the opposite direction. Agree, look at the Chargers, 321 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: even like their defense, there's guys on every level of 322 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: that defense. The Chargers are real effects defensively and they're 323 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: like the twentieth ranked defense in the league right now. Yeah, 324 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: I mean it happens, and it's not because it's their fault. 325 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: They actually have decent numbers, but just defenses are starting 326 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: the shift and they're they're covering these tight ends.

I'm trying to get this roo rodeo 401 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: boy all right. Eagles offense thirty eight points in week one, 402 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 1: twenty four points in the next two weeks. They put 403 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: up twenty nine against Jacksonville, and then last week they 404 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: held on late against the Arizona Cardinals twenty to seven. 405 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 1: Team is the final score? They are five and zero. 406 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: Jalen hurtson Company look legitimate, but so does this Dallas defense. Right, 407 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun. This is the matchup. I think 408 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: everybody will have circled the Dallas defense versus the Philadelphia offense. Isaiah, 409 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: your initial thoughts on what you're seeing from Philadelphia and 410 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: how dangerous are they really even based off of some 411 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: of the schedule they've played so far, I feel like 412 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: Bart Scott right now, Okay, can't wait. I'm looking forward 413 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: to it. These guys there, everybody talks about their defensive lining. Yes, 414 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: their defensive line will not allow you to run the ball. 415 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: That's concerning because they have the big boys in the middle. Obviously, 416 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 1: with big I call them baby Davies, Big baby Davies. 417 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: I know that was a basketball player. But I'm gonna 418 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 1: call them big Baby Davies and in big Fletcher Cox. 419 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,239 Speaker 1: They got hardgrow over there. They got me, they got 420 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: they got some dudes right in the middle that won't 421 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: allow you to really be as successful as you like 422 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: to be on the ground game. We know that is 423 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: very important for Dallas' success to be able to establish 424 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 1: the ground game because they haven't been throwing the ball 425 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: the way they've wanted to. So that's a little bit 426 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: concerning Their defense doesn't scare me. The Dallas Is defense. Dallas' 427 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: defense scares everybody, and they should. Philly's defense does not 428 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: scare me. But they almost like their patient. They're very patient. 429 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: They just chill. They do what they're supposed to do. 430 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: They don't necessarily make a big bunch of big splash 431 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 1: plays unless you throw it up to them. If you 432 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: throw it up Slay Gardner, Johnson and all them guys, 433 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna make you pay for it if you put 434 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: it up in the air, if you try to run 435 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 1: the ball on the ground. Fletcher Cox, big Baby, They're 436 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: gonna remind you that they're in there. We're previewing Dallas 437 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: defense versus Philly off I'm sorry, man, I pulled a piece, 438 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: all right, So all right, let's flip it to the outside. 439 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 1: Das defensive No, no, no no, no, exactly the whole thing. 440 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 1: So Dallas Dallas's defense is very is very explosive in 441 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 1: the sense that these guys will try to get after 442 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: obviously the offense of Philadelphia, but Philadelphia has a lot 443 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 1: of options that they provide in a lot of leverage problems. 444 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: Dallas's advantage is that they're so explosive and they make 445 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: big plays, and that the personnel groupings can obviously take 446 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: advantage of that of Philly, even though they have some dudes, 447 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 1: Dallas Dallas has better personnel matchups overall. The thing that 448 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: concerns me is that they're so overly aggressive, not from 449 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 1: the sense of dan Quinn putting them out of position 450 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 1: in terms of blitzing and things of that nature, but 451 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,199 Speaker 1: from the sense that these guys like to make plays. 452 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 1: And that's an amazing thing, as we've seen this year, 453 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: until you start having leverage problems, until you're slowed down 454 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: by the options that Philadelphia provides in terms of the RPO, 455 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: and most people think RPO are either going to run 456 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: the ball or gona passes in one place. No no, no, no. 457 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: Philadelphia's rpo is I can run the ball right here 458 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: because we have the numbers in the box and we 459 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: have bigger guys on your smaller guys, and we have 460 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 1: six five for six, whatever it might be, right, they 461 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 1: feel good about there in the box running schemes, so 462 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: they can do that. That's a run option. Or I 463 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: think can running with Jalen Hurts. That's another option. Or 464 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 1: we have three guys out to the bunch up top 465 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: and we could run a screenplay because we have three 466 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: guys blocking your two guys. Or we have Dallas Goddard 467 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 1: down here and he's matched up, you know, him and A. J. 468 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 1: Brown have one on one match up when we can 469 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 1: run a screen down here as well. They put your 470 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 1: defensive ends, your outside linebackers, at a disadvantage because they 471 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 1: put you in no man's land. Whatever decision that you 472 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: would like to make from your defensive position, they can 473 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: make you wrong even though you're doing your assignment. You're 474 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: doing what dan Quinn told you to do, but they 475 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 1: still can make you wrong because they have three or 476 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 1: four options that they can go with based upon the 477 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: look that you give So that's the problem, and that's 478 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: the thing that's concerning to me, because like even if 479 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: Dallas does what they're supposed to do defensively, you still 480 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: could be in a bad predicament. I'm gonna I'm gonna 481 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 1: let up ticket Nix because I did some homework on 482 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 1: the Eagles, specifically Monday night and then again last night, 483 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 1: and I got some some numbers here that I want 484 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: to tell us out. Okay, Yeah, just real quick to 485 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: piggyback on what Isaiah said, if you go back and 486 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 1: watch this Cardinals game, they didn't they didn't blow you 487 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 1: away offensively. They at twenty points in the game. But 488 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: like you said about options like if you want to 489 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,199 Speaker 1: load up up front against them, there was a lot 490 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: of screen actions at a lot of stuff that got 491 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 1: here quick outside and he can get yack for you. 492 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: We know about DeVante Smith, we know about A. J. Brown. 493 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: I just think we asked the question, I think on 494 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: Fan Tuesday by a fan, like, can can the RPO 495 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 1: stuff and the run games slow down? The Cowboys rushed 496 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,640 Speaker 1: and in some since, yes, it can. That's what That's 497 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: what RPOs are designed to do. They're designed to make 498 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: you freeze first A second, figure out what you're supposed 499 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 1: to do. So I do think that is a concern 500 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,679 Speaker 1: because they're so good at it, and Hurts is so 501 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,159 Speaker 1: good at it, and Hurts has also become just a 502 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 1: better overall passer too as part of that threat too, 503 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 1: he is, he has really developed. I've been a fan 504 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: of his since it came in the league. I know 505 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: some people haven't. I'm one of those people. I'm not 506 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 1: a crazy Hurts well they I think he can win, 507 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: but I don't think he's a great quarterback lead put 508 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,880 Speaker 1: it out. They've done a hell of a job designing 509 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:34,199 Speaker 1: an offense around his strength. But he's also he's just 510 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,640 Speaker 1: impressed me since Alabama just he constantly gets better. He's 511 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 1: such a pro. But they have such and they've done 512 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 1: such a good job of adding players. I mean a J. 513 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 1: Brown is a great addition to this defense or offense. 514 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, the RPO stuff. I'm curious where Micah Parsons 515 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: goes because both these games last year were blowouts. Not 516 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 1: everybody played in the final game. In Week three, it 517 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: was a Cowboys blowout and they barely Eagles barely ran 518 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: ball because it was such a lopsided game. Is it 519 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: better for Mica to play on the edge or play 520 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 1: off the ball and be able to survey survey things 521 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: a little bit more. To me, that's part of the 522 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 1: chess match too that I want to see. Okay, so 523 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: here's some science on on the Eagles. Yes. Yes, the 524 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: more I dug into this this team, the less impressive 525 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: they became in one particular aspect, and that's the passing game. 526 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: You have to love how they've designed their offense as 527 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: far as personnel wise. You know, they went and got 528 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 1: a J. Brown. It's crazy because their offense is irreally 529 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: similar to Dallas is when Dak is a mix right, 530 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 1: because a J. Brown is the same building type of 531 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:47,439 Speaker 1: player as Michael Gallup. For the most part, I did it. Um, 532 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,479 Speaker 1: DeVante Smith, Cite Lamb have the same skill set. You know, 533 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 1: shifty guys can make plays, Um, But the word explosive 534 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: keeps getting thrown around, right, And I was guilty of 535 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: it as well until I started really digging into them. 536 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 1: On Monday. Hurts has only four touchdowns, four passing touchdowns, 537 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: and he has two interceptions. Cooper Rush has four touchdowns 538 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: with no interceptions. That means Hurts is on pace for 539 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: less than fourteen touchdowns this season to seven interceptions like that, 540 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: those are bad numbers. That's not even par like that's 541 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 1: so par. In passing zero passing touchdowns in three of 542 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: their five games three of their five games, Hurts has 543 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: not been able to find a receiver in the end zone, 544 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: be a Goddard or Brown or Vantae Smith or whomever. 545 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: It's so lopsided. This is what I was referring to 546 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: during the breaks. It's so lopsided. They are explosive as 547 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: a run offense, explosive, you gotta contain that. But as 548 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: a passing offense, they are so not great as far 549 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: as pay dirt. What they do well, it's what It's 550 00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: kind of matches what the Cowboys allowed to be done. 551 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: How boys like Ben don't break. They rack up. They 552 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: being the Eagles, they rack up a lot of yards 553 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 1: in between the red zones. And yet Godard, for example, 554 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: two hundred Goddard has two hundred and eighty yards after 555 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: the catch, he leads all NFL players in there that 556 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: this is going to segue too. We'll get the key 557 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: matchups later in the week, but a one of my 558 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: matchups to watch, it's going to be Curse versus Goddard 559 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: and you know we set on media match. They were asking, well, 560 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: will you know how do you stop hurts in the 561 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: run game. Well, what you do is for me, you 562 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 1: don't blitz. You. You assign your three or four man 563 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: front to win their their matchups as they have been 564 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: and then you keep a particular spy. But I don't 565 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 1: think to answer your question, I wouldn't use Mica as 566 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 1: the spy coming off of a growing injury, because first 567 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: of all, I wouldn't even love him practice this week. 568 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: I said that in media match yesterday's DNP, DNP, DMP 569 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 1: or limited Limited Limited rehab, Rehab rehab, and then hey 570 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: see you on Sunday. But I still wouldn't use Mica there. 571 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: I would use anth Ny bar because I love what 572 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: I saw from Anthony Barr against the Rams. As far 573 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: as his sideline to sideline, I saw two separate occurrences 574 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 1: where he knifed in on what do we just talked 575 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: about with theys do well screen passes? Okay, On two 576 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 1: separate occasions, Anthony Barr red recognized, closed, knifed in and 577 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: blew up two screen passes. One would have been a 578 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: huge played by Tyler Higbee. This is what you need 579 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: from bar in this particular game, and I think that's 580 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: how you help contain a Jalen Hurts. If Jalen Hurts 581 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 1: beat you in this game by throwing forty times but 582 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,719 Speaker 1: only rushing for twenty yards, then so be it c AT, 583 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 1: AT and T in a few weeks. However, I don't 584 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: believe Jalen Hurts can beat you by throwing forty times 585 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: and only rushing for twenty yards. So it's a very 586 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: one dimensional offense. It's just that that one dimension is explosive, 587 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: but the Cowboys have the personnel to limit that really quickly. 588 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 1: I wanted to add to a couple of points that 589 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: you had there from your science lab. But Philadelphia fourth 590 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: in the NFL and rushing yards per game for one 591 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty yards per pop. Then you've got their 592 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: seventh in the NFL and passing yardage, so they're still 593 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: pretty high up there in terms of throwing the football 594 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: as well. If you wanted a comparison, Dallas is fifteenth 595 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: in the NFL and rushing and their twenty seventh and passing, 596 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: so they get a lot of it's it's your yardage 597 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: is different. You're right, And then you said Michael Gallup 598 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,479 Speaker 1: and A. J. Brown. I just wanted to debunk that 599 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: one me too. Michael Gallups two hundred pounds, two different 600 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: room classes and A J. Brown's two twenty five on 601 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 1: a bad game. The way they played, they played violent. 602 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: I agree with that. That's what I was going to 603 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: add that to it. They're both guys that go and 604 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 1: have that contested ball downfield. They can go up and 605 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: make a grab different way. Class didn't say they have 606 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: the same momay the same way, and he wanted to 607 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: get that out there before Twitter got out there. That's 608 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: a good point about Micah because dan Quinn even told 609 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 1: us on Monday they put him on the edge in 610 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: part as a situational pass rusher in the second half 611 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: because he was limited physically. So we'll see how he 612 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: does this week. Hurts does average eight point five yards attempt. 613 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: That helps when you've got a Davante Smith on your team, Yes, 614 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: and you can you can press the ball down the field. 615 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: He has six rushing touchdowns and there you go. Leads 616 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: his team in it, leaves his team in it. He's 617 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: right up there in terms of the NFL rankings, and 618 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: he averages over thirteen yards of Carr, he's their best 619 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: ball carrier effect and in a good offensive good ball carrier, 620 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: he's averaging almost four and a half first downs per 621 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: game on the ground hurt his Why what do you mean? Why? Because? Why? Why? 622 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: Why does this happen? What's it's always it's always going 623 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: to be a myriad, But go ahead. It's because of 624 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: the fact that the defenders are left in no man's 625 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 1: they are laying and it's that's what I'm talking about, 626 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: Like it's no matter if you're doing your assignment. They 627 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: make you wrong. They don't give a dog on how 628 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: they get to the to the red zone. They don't 629 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: give a dog on how they get to the end zone. 630 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 1: They want to just they are patient, Like there's not 631 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: many teams in this league that are patient. These guys 632 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: will jump, They'll run five screenplays in a row, different looks, 633 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: totally from the looks. They'll give it dout the Goddard, 634 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: they give it out to j. Brown, to give it 635 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: out the Smith, they give the mouse Sanders. They don't 636 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: give a dog on long as they're beating you down, 637 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: keeping your offense off the field. My fear. Okay, I 638 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: think Dallas defense is the best in the league, hands down, 639 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: most explosive, most best personnel, all that jazz. However, these 640 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: guys will test the run defense. We keep talking about 641 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: the run defense, and have we've been tested? This team 642 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: not the most traditional run defenses run offenses, okay. And 643 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: the reason why I say that is because they will 644 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: rush the ball with Miles Sanders, they will run option 645 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 1: with dog on Jalen Hurts, or they'll use the screens 646 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: as rushes. Look at the film and how many one 647 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,959 Speaker 1: on one matchups these cornerbacks of the Dallas Cowboys are 648 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: gonna have to come up, be physical and win. Not 649 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 1: gonna be able to come up and hit. Look at 650 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: me and break how many tackles they break out of 651 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: screen place? They take hits all day long. Freaking Buddha 652 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: Baker was coming up laying hat and guess what, not 653 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 1: making a tackle? Right? Those are those well as players 654 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: were there one on one A J. Brown swallow, A J. 655 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 1: Brown is out there lined up, okay, and he's out 656 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: there one on one. You got a cornerback pain seven 657 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 1: or eight yards off and you throw it out to him. 658 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 1: They are perfectly fine taking four yards from that and 659 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: using that as a run play. They don't need Jalen 660 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: Hurst thrown the ball down the field. They don't care 661 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 1: if Jaleen Hurst throws the ball down the field. Their 662 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: plan is to wear you down and have you so 663 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: concerned and honed the end on your assignments in terms 664 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: of run defense that all of a sudden you start 665 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: creeping up and then what, oh crap, I forgot they 666 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: had to MOUNTE Smith and A J. Brown. That past everybody. 667 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: They're looking for that one or two plays. That's all 668 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 1: they care about, because in reality, everybody thinks that you 669 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,399 Speaker 1: have to have this amazingly explosive offense, you need two 670 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 1: plays a game. But I just don't to that point, 671 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 1: they've addressed that point. I don't think dan Quinn is 672 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: going to creep up because dan Quinn's offense is totally 673 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: fine giving you the underneath, and then when you get 674 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 1: towards the red zone, then he says, figure it out. 675 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: I dare you to get into this end zone and 676 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: team's time and again cannot get into the end zone. 677 00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: Teams that can't run the ball. That's fair. So that's 678 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. That's that's where's a little bit different. 679 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: So trust me, I'm saying that I wholeheartedly. Some good 680 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: run games that haven't been good against you. I mean 681 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: Joe Mixon was tearing people up this year. Yes, he has. 682 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,839 Speaker 1: He's been good this year. Joe Mixon's been running the ball. 683 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: He's on my fantasy team. He hasn't done crab He's 684 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:21,319 Speaker 1: still find most of the league. I hear you, But 685 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:25,080 Speaker 1: I'm saying these and again I'm gonna keep saying I'm 686 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: gonna yeah, I'm sorry. There has not been a team 687 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: Antonio Gibson hasn't been Gibson this year. They're running there 688 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 1: in the Officie fifty against das So. To your point, 689 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 1: but these these are very traditional running teams, and I 690 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 1: need people to understand that it's different. It's not just 691 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: line up, come down. Hell, I'm gonna I'm also a 692 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: Digi Zula, I'm Nevil Gallimore. I'm gonna come up here 693 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: and just run you off the ball. These guys will 694 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 1: use leverage and if you choose one side, they're going 695 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: the other way. Michael Parson needs to play defensive, and 696 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,800 Speaker 1: why because he needs to be able to take away 697 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 1: the running game and be able to get out to 698 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: the screen to stop that from you're coming from the 699 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: inside out. That's where he needs to play this game. 700 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: I have never said that in life, but this is 701 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 1: the game that Micah needs to be on the edge. 702 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,400 Speaker 1: This is the game that Sam Williams needs to be 703 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: on the opposite edge, because these guys need to be 704 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: able to build up. You condense the dog one running game, 705 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: running lanes, and get out to the dog on screens 706 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 1: because this team is going to scream Dallas to death. 707 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 1: And I hope that these guys come up and hit 708 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 1: and tackle because that is how they're going to be tested. 709 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: I'll say this and I'll accentuate your point. It's not 710 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: specifically just that the Cowboys have struggle because, like like 711 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 1: Cal said, they've going against some good run running teams. 712 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: Not the Rams put some good running teams in Joe 713 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: Mixon for example, in the bengalsum. But it's and I've 714 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 1: said this two weeks or so ago going into the 715 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:45,800 Speaker 1: game at MetLife, mobile quarterbacks, more specifically than the run attack. 716 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 1: It's mobile quarterbacks that tends to give this team hell. 717 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones was and he proved me right, he was 718 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 1: giving them some hell hurts is infinitely more mobile and 719 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 1: Danny Danny Diames heard him on Broken Place, right, these 720 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 1: are going to be behind So to to incituate your point, yeah, 721 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,479 Speaker 1: it's it's not simply the run offense. It's the fact 722 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: that it's an extremely mobile quarterback, and it's a quarterback 723 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: that depends on his mobility to defeat you. But then 724 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: the brig gets sliced both ways, right, Because while that's true, 725 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: it's also true that it makes them infinitely more one dimensional. 726 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 1: So in that one dimension, there's there's levels to this, right, 727 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,399 Speaker 1: So in that one dimension, are you talking about like 728 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 1: like doctor Strange dimensions or are we talking about lights 729 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: like dimension? Because my biggest people, and we'll talk about 730 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:38,879 Speaker 1: this in film, I know, we gotta go to break 731 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,800 Speaker 1: go back to go back on film again for Dallas 732 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 1: and look at the cutback lanes. Oh there's a lot 733 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: of it against everybody against not even just the Rams. 734 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 1: Go back to New York. How did it break run? 735 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 1: So there has only been one running back who's been 736 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 1: capable of making that cut? Is that a product that 737 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: should have been? That was a broken I mean that 738 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: was a mistacle too. So for a reason, yeah, I 739 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 1: mean for a reason. He markly you had hands on him. 740 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 1: He's so now you're talking about you know how you're 741 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 1: talking about h Jalen Hurts, who squat six hundred pounds. 742 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So like I'm just saying, 743 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,280 Speaker 1: there are some things that have shown up on film 744 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: that you're going to have to show up otherwise this 745 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 1: team will make you freaking pay. Is that a product 746 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: of a defensive line that is so aggressive? And that's 747 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: what I want to get to that. I want to 748 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 1: talk to that when we come back, because that's how 749 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: the Giants had their highest rushing attack so far. It 750 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,280 Speaker 1: was the edge. It was the edge outside the tackles. 751 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 1: That's how teams have rushed against the Cowboys. Let's talk 752 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:36,320 Speaker 1: about this. Continue this on the other side of the 753 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: break you're on talking Cowboys. Todd thought it would be 754 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 1: secure to jog and the cheatahs savants. Todd believed the 755 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: big cat repellent he bought online was reliable. And now 756 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 1: Todd is trying to be faster than this cheetah that 757 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 1: can run eighty miles per hour. But the good news 758 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: is Todd has at and t five g. It is fast, reliable, 759 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,239 Speaker 1: and secure, and he learned the best thing to do 760 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:57,800 Speaker 1: is stop running and toss her the backpack with the 761 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: beef stew at and T five G fast, reliable, secure, 762 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: It's not complicated.

Let's do 794 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 1: it about the outside of the Cowboys defense. Outside the tackles. 795 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: That's where they've been hurt. That's where New York hurt you. 796 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:19,440 Speaker 1: Whenever Washington had success, where do they hurt them on 797 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: the outside? It was outside the tackles? J Or what 798 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: was it JD. McKissick. And then they had Gibson who 799 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 1: was the third running back, number forty one Robinson er 800 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 1: I can't even remember his name is yeah, whatever it was. 801 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 1: He had a big reception on the outside forty one Williams. 802 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:41,200 Speaker 1: So how does Dallas take that aggressiveness that this whole 803 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 1: defense is just intertwined with and then dial it back 804 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 1: a little bit to make sure that they have the 805 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:51,320 Speaker 1: gap assignment and they're able to read these options. Well, 806 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 1: they have to not be what they've been to date. Unfortunately, 807 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: they have to slow down. You have to slow down 808 00:41:58,080 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: because if you're flying around the way that you've been 809 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 1: flying around, you're not concerned about the what ifs. If 810 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: you're not concerned about the what ifs, that's when you 811 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 1: get bit. That's what this whole offense is structured around, 812 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,839 Speaker 1: slowing you down. Their offense that they have, it's been 813 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: successful against some not so successful against others. But I 814 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: honestly think like this offense is made for the dan 815 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 1: Quinn type of defense, with the type of the dan 816 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,479 Speaker 1: Quinn personnel. Like you want to you want to play fast, 817 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 1: you want to get up here cool? Right, come on, 818 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: come on, Dan wants to get it on. Yeah, Dante Dan, 819 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,359 Speaker 1: Mike Tyson, this is freaking Frasier, you know what I'm saying, 820 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: like patient versus not patient. Like So, I think that 821 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: the defense end positions specifically or outside linebackers, however you 822 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 1: want to look at it, these guys an have to 823 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,799 Speaker 1: slow their role. You're going to have to slow your role, 824 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to read not saying that these 825 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:51,000 Speaker 1: guys can't be themselves, but you can't play as fast 826 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 1: as you've been playing from that position, because you think 827 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,240 Speaker 1: about it, these guys either been running to the sideline 828 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 1: or they've been running down here at the quarterbacks. Okay, 829 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,360 Speaker 1: they haven't had to be Oh do I do I 830 00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 1: come down here and take away the run? But if 831 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 1: if I go down too much down the line of scrimmage, 832 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 1: then Jalen Hurts is gonna pull it, and then I'll 833 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,319 Speaker 1: also have to be concerned where if he might fake it, 834 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,080 Speaker 1: might pull it and throw it out to the tight 835 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 1: end or to run the receiver out on the outside. 836 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 1: So these guys got to make not only just one decision, 837 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,359 Speaker 1: they gotta make it between choose between one to three 838 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,800 Speaker 1: decisions on what do I do? On any given play. 839 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 1: The challenging spot for this defense is going to be 840 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 1: the second level, the linebackers, because the guards of the 841 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 1: offensive line for Philadelphia get up to the linebackers, and 842 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 1: how do they do that because of the boxes that 843 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,399 Speaker 1: are formed right, the linements that are there, a lot 844 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,359 Speaker 1: of times if their guards or not, if they don't 845 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 1: have anybody standing over them, they have an easy track 846 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 1: straight up to the linebacker. Bar vander Ash, You're gonna 847 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: have to have a game of your life because you're 848 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:43,840 Speaker 1: gonna be stuck there trying to figure out what direction 849 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 1: do I go? And you talked about it earlier, Robbie, 850 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 1: that one little pause, that one second pause allows these 851 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 1: guards to get up to the next level. And if 852 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: they're able to do that and get their hands on you, 853 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:56,400 Speaker 1: it's trouble. So bar vander Ash, hit go, hit your 854 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,359 Speaker 1: bench press, get your narrow grip on because you're gonna 855 00:43:58,360 --> 00:43:59,800 Speaker 1: be punching people in the chests all day long. I 856 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: loved this part of the conversation because I think all 857 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,360 Speaker 1: of us, in some way, shape or form, Kyl and 858 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,080 Speaker 1: the mail Bag yesterday and us on social media have 859 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: tried to clarify this for fans. The issue with the 860 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,359 Speaker 1: run defense for the Cowboys, it's not the interior. It's 861 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,359 Speaker 1: not the interior. It's not the interior. Those that are 862 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,879 Speaker 1: having success against this defense on the ground, they're doing 863 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 1: it on the edges. Be it one game, it might 864 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:23,759 Speaker 1: be the left edge, one game, it might be the 865 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 1: right edge. An example would be what Mixon was able 866 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: to do and his successful runs, the one that he 867 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,880 Speaker 1: got five or more yards on were towards the Cowboys 868 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 1: right side of their defensive line. I just pulled up, 869 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 1: say kuon Barkley. All four of his five or more 870 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 1: yard runs were to the right side of the offensive line. 871 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: He got stone wall in the middle, stone wall on 872 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 1: the left. It seems like it's one or the other. 873 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 1: So it's not the interior, it's the outside on any 874 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 1: given week. But it goes to your point. Linebackers have 875 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:57,360 Speaker 1: to remain disciplined and be ready to step up and support, 876 00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 1: and we can't stress it enough. That's what's going to 877 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 1: help contain a guy like Jalen Hurts and Miles Sanders, 878 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 1: because you're gonna have to maintain your your mental discipline. 879 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 1: More than anything. Their whole goal, their entire goal is 880 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,799 Speaker 1: to make you think. For that split second, and that 881 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 1: split second makes you react in the wrong way or 882 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: not react at all. And now you're chasing your breath 883 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 1: as far as chasing hurts this direction or that direction. 884 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,840 Speaker 1: So this is going to be a big test for 885 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 1: the linebacker coors as far as can they support the 886 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,359 Speaker 1: Cowboys defensive line on the edges to stop the run 887 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 1: before you throw over the rod p one thing I 888 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 1: know we're saying, not interior defensive linement. I'm going to disagree. 889 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: In this game, the interior defensive linement got to have 890 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: the game of their life because their centers do so much. 891 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:46,720 Speaker 1: Their center pulls, their center reach block by the way, understood, understood, 892 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 1: But they're not going to change their scheme because of right. 893 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 1: So it might be a level versus hear you personal 894 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:56,359 Speaker 1: this center, but the interior desa no Gallimore Tristan Hill. 895 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:58,879 Speaker 1: You have to get vertical because this center is either 896 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 1: going to try to reach block you, and if he 897 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 1: can reach block you and cut you off, it's easy 898 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:05,279 Speaker 1: to kick a defense in in out. Okay, So if 899 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:08,400 Speaker 1: the center can cut off the front side defensive tackle 900 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,319 Speaker 1: and their right tackle, left tackle whatever it is, can 901 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 1: kick out the defensive end, that's usually lined up outside. 902 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:15,760 Speaker 1: That's why they're to end. Then you're have your guard 903 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,280 Speaker 1: working up to that linebacker and now you have holes. 904 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 1: So that's why I'm saying, these guys are gonna have 905 00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:22,879 Speaker 1: to be sure ups up front in the middle. Those 906 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: guys have to dominate this game. And yeah, real quick 907 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,320 Speaker 1: before we live it over there, Quentin Bohanna. Keeping on 908 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: on Quentin Bohanna as far as to injury report this 909 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 1: week because if he can play, that'll be huge. Ye 910 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 1: one thing real quick to add to no. See, in 911 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:38,959 Speaker 1: the Commanders game, they attack the edges, they burn the edges, 912 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 1: and they went at Michael Parsons too, and that's that's 913 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,759 Speaker 1: that's something to watch too if he's on the edge, 914 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 1: because they're trying to wear him down. You're trying to 915 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 1: wear him down over the course of the game. Uh. 916 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,800 Speaker 1: You mentioned Quentin Bohanna on the eagle side. You mentioned Kelsey. 917 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 1: He's playing. He started one hundred and twenty seven straight games. 918 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 1: He's gonna play that he's gonna play. But they are 919 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 1: banged up. I don't know if we mentioned that Malata 920 00:46:56,480 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 1: Landon Dickerson, Kelsey, there might be an other injury on 921 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 1: this offensive line. It seems like it's a theme against 922 00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 1: the Cowboys defense. But that's something to watch for Philly. 923 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: They are not healthy upfront. Yeah, so that's one thing 924 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: that may be in Achilles Hill, But even then, there's 925 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 1: not a whole lot of it. Jaw jaw dropping stat 926 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 1: to end us out here on talking Cowboys today. The 927 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:22,080 Speaker 1: Eagles are one of two teams since nineteen forty with 928 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 1: twelve rushing touchdowns or more or two fewer giveaways in 929 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 1: their first five games of the season. The only other 930 00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 1: team to ever do that was the nineteen sixty Cleveland Browns. 931 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 1: The Browns that year were led by quarterback Milt Plum. 932 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 1: That's not a name you're gonna remember. But then you've 933 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,319 Speaker 1: got two Hall of famers that ran the football that year, 934 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: Jim Brown and Bobby Mitchell. That was the last team 935 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 1: to ever do what the Eagles have done through their 936 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:51,600 Speaker 1: first five teams of the first five games of the season, 937 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 1: one of two. He's only one of the best ever, 938 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 1: if not the best. They're also the only team in 939 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 1: the NFL this season with two players with over two 940 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards rushing and two rushing touchdowns this year, 941 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: and that's Hurts and of course in the backfield it's 942 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 1: Miles Sanders. So this offense is dangerous, but goodness gracious, 943 00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: so is this defense is also dangerous. So keep that 944 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: in Mark Scott, all right, that does it for us. 945 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 1: You're all talking to Cowboys. Tomorrow, we'll flip it to 946 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:26,320 Speaker 1: Isaiah's other favorite matchup, the Cowboys offense versus the Philly defense, 947 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 1: and we'll see what's gonna happen this this week here 948 00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:33,640 Speaker 1: for the Eagles and the Cowboys. For Chris Beam, Rob Phillips, 949 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 1: Isaiah Stanback, Patrick nose Walker und Kyle Yelmans. We'll see 950 00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,399 Speaker 1: you tomorrow with more Talking Cowboys. Presented by Black Rifle 951 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 1: Coffee Company.
