I've been doing a little bit more 37 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: draft stuff on a little behind, but I have a 38 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,759 Speaker 2: chance to Yeah, you know, it's never too it's never 39 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: too early. 40 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 9: But wow, wow, I looked at their offense. 41 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 3: This is trying to be the smartest guy in the room, now, right, 42 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 3: you see that? 43 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 10: Right? 44 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 4: This is a tough match challenge. 45 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 3: This is a tough matchup. 46 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 9: Is a tough matchup. 47 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 6: I don't want to hear that. I don't want to 48 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 6: hear that.

We'll get into all that here in 51 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 4: the second segment. I want to start first, though, with 52 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 4: you still caught on that with injuries. 53 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 3: Let's get the first. 54 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 4: I think there are five injuries that this week Cowboys 55 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 4: fans need to be aware of and keep an eye on. 56 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 4: I'm gonna run down this list. I want you guys, 57 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 4: to tell me what you're hearing about them. Let's start 58 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 4: first with the MANI war It's Warrior. Uh, what are 59 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 4: we hearing about him? After you got hurt last weekend 60 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,239 Speaker 4: in the game versus the Niners. 61 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, saw him in the locker room matter the game 62 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 2: versus the Niners. He was walking around, kind of gone 63 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 2: up to him, Hey, how you feeling. He's like, I'm good, 64 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 2: But you know, that's that's what anybody says right after 65 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 2: after a game. So able to follow up this week 66 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 2: with with some folks, and it sounds like that injury 67 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 2: was a little bit worse than anticipated. He took a 68 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 2: knee straight to the spine, and so there's, uh, there's 69 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 2: there's fear that that could be some extensive time this there. 70 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 2: But the further testing this week and probably furtheraluation will 71 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 2: probably prove a little bit more. I expect to hear 72 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 2: more on that front from McCarthy today. 73 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 4: With all that going on with him, it becomes even 74 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 4: more important what's happening with the others. Let's talk about 75 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 4: Deron Bland and Kaylin Carson. 76 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 2: So today's a deadline for Deron Bland to get activated 77 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 2: off the. 78 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 9: Injured reserve. 79 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 2: List that his twenty one day window is up today, 80 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 2: so they have to activate him today, but that does 81 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 2: not necessarily mean he will play on Sunday. However, I'm 82 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 2: going to go ahead and get jump ahead. I think 83 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 2: Bland and Carson will both be available when we get 84 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 2: to Sunday in Atlanta. That's just me theorizing. I don't 85 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 2: really know anything to that point. I want to make 86 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: sure and clarify that. That's me theorizing. I think both 87 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 2: those guys will be ready on Sunday, all. 88 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 3: Right, and yeah, yeah, great job. By the way of 89 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 3: doing that, I reached out to a couple of different people, 90 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 3: and man, there are a lot of things they're dealing 91 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 3: with over there right now, because and you're asking questions 92 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 3: about like, hey, you know your injured guy is going 93 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 3: to try and give it a go this week practice 94 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 3: and all that, and you get answers back like, well, 95 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 3: that's an in depth question right now. Then we have 96 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 3: too many to decide on. So yeah, that's you know that. 97 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: It's unfortunately though, that this is you know where we're at, 98 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 3: and you know you needed those Maybe a couple of 99 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 3: those guys can come back and help. We'll talk about 100 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 3: Atlanta's offense here in a bit, there are some challenges 101 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 3: and it'd be nice if you could somehow Carson Parsons, 102 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 3: you know, Bland, all these guys. The more guys you 103 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 3: could possibly get back, it would help you to deal 104 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 3: with what you're about to have happen ahead. 105 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 4: It's always amazing to me, and I don't know if 106 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 4: it's I don't know what causes this, but it seems 107 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 4: like in the NFL, and you watch with the Cowboys 108 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 4: up close, but it seems like injuries just seemed to 109 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 4: happen all at one position, all at the same time. 110 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 4: You know, it's like you can't spread them out, like 111 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 4: can you get an injury at one position and then 112 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 4: another position. But it's like this year when it comes 113 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 4: to defensive end, cornerback, it's just the Cowboys have just 114 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 4: been decimated. And it's just I don't know if there's 115 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 4: I don't know why that tends to happen, but last 116 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 4: year was linebacker, right, it just seems like you get 117 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 4: this position and then all of a sudden, you take 118 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 4: a bunch of hits at one position. And it could 119 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 4: be a position that even you think is a string 120 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 4: because I looked when We're going into the season thinking 121 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 4: that pretty good depth there at the cornerback position or 122 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 4: Warrior was not really even a part of that at 123 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 4: the time and has come in and played admirably for them. 124 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 4: And now you got to deal with injuries there. Uh, 125 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 4: let's talk about Rico Dalda. What are we hearing? Is 126 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 4: it at this point? Is he fine? 127 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 3: Is what's told? 128 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 2: He could have played Monday, So yeah, it was just 129 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 2: something that kind of spurred up over the weekend and 130 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 2: obviously didn't play Sunday because his fever had reached into 131 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 2: the hundreds, So just kind of played it on the 132 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 2: safe end as far as that goes. 133 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 9: There's some fever. 134 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 2: There's some conspiracy going around. I want to go ahead 135 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 2: and Claire, he was. 136 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,559 Speaker 6: Trying to come up with some conspiracy theory. 137 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 4: Was not me, for the record, was not me to 138 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 4: address Shaggy, right, he wouldn't. 139 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 9: Be to address me. 140 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 2: There has been some conspiracy going around around, like you know, 141 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: somebody pushed re Go out so Zeke and Dalvin would 142 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 2: have more opportunities. 143 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 9: That's just not the case. In the fact game of 144 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 9: the Believer or you can't that's just not the case. 145 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 2: And what happened I think if there's any blame to 146 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 2: be put on the team, it's the sense that maybe 147 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 2: that we didn't know about this sickness a little bit earlier, 148 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 2: but that that's it. That's I don't I don't think 149 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 2: there's any other blame that needs to be going around. 150 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 3: He talked to folks Saturday night to try and get 151 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 3: a handle on this because there was a lot of 152 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 3: tweets that were going around, and I know Nick was 153 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 3: working hard on it, and I think we all were 154 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 3: working on it. And it never was him being inactive, right, 155 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 3: It never was. It was always going to be they're 156 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 3: probably going to go light on defense. They're probably going 157 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 3: to go a couple of corners here, you know, that's 158 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 3: what probably what they're going to do. It never was that. No, 159 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 3: he was going to be you know, he was always 160 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 3: going to be active. He always was going to be 161 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,559 Speaker 3: active until he got sick. And then once that happened. 162 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 3: Because I I talked to two three guys in the 163 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 3: organization that were like, man, and I was trying to guess. 164 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 3: I was trying to play the game of Okay, well 165 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 3: how about this, this, this and this, Well, maybe me 166 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 3: think about this, this, this and this you know, And 167 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 3: it never was about Rico.

Maybe we 176 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 3: could go a little bit lighter at at at cornerback 177 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 3: because we don't have to deal with maybe so much 178 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 3: with all their wide receivers. You know. So there their 179 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 3: their planned. I don't think they were trying to pull 180 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 3: a fast one on anybody. I think legitimately the guy 181 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,239 Speaker 3: got sick and they they it looks the optics doesn't 182 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 3: look great. But I know Saturday night, you know, before 183 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 3: I went to bed at midnight, that there was a 184 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 3: plan of him playing in that football. 185 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 11: Yeah. 186 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 4: There's so many times that because we travel with the team, 187 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 4: we'll start hearing little whispers and things from time to time. 188 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 4: And when I tell you, everybody was like what, Yeah, 189 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 4: you know, because it was not it was not something 190 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 4: that was that was out there or that anybody really 191 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 4: even suspected would happen. I don't even think people on 192 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 4: the team perspected was happening. It was just it was, 193 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 4: you know, one of those situations where the next morning 194 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 4: that the fever spiked and for whatever reason they decided, yeah, 195 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 4: he can't go, and then they put him down. So 196 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 4: I think that's just kind of that's the nature. That's no, no, 197 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 4: not they didn't put him, he just didn't play. But 198 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 4: you know, that's that's the nature of I guess the 199 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 4: world we live in now, there's a lot of conspiracy theory. 200 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 4: Everybody's always wondering what's the conspiracy here. Sometimes there really 201 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 4: just is no conspiracy. It is what it is. All right, 202 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 4: let's real quick. I want to I want to kind 203 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 4: of introduce this Atlanta Falcons team. They are five and 204 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 4: three right now. They have beaten Philadelphia. They've beaten Tampa 205 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 4: Bay twice, which Tampa is a really good team. I 206 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 4: think when they took their injuries last week, I thought 207 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 4: they might fall off, but they've been playing pretty well 208 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 4: throughout the season. They've beaten them twice. They have loss 209 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 4: to Pittsburgh, Kansas City, and Seattle. Seattle really is the 210 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 4: only team that beat him up good. Most of their 211 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 4: games they've lost. If they've lost or if they've won, 212 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 4: it's been an eight point differential between the winner and 213 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 4: the loser, except for that Seattle game where they lost 214 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 4: thirty four to fourteen. They are right now first place 215 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 4: though in the NFC South. If you have to introduce 216 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 4: this team to Cowboys fans, what will be the one 217 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 4: thing you think Cowboys fans need to know going into 218 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 4: this game about the Atlanta Falcons. 219 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 9: Kirk Cousins is not an old man, that is. Yeah, 220 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 9: he is. He is. 221 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 2: He's making everybody around him better. He is making that 222 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 2: offense better, he's making those weapons better. He's making that 223 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 2: team better. And he's he's he's very much a game manager. 224 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 2: But he's like the he's like the Lebron James of 225 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 2: Brock parties. If that makes sense, I don't know, in 226 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 2: the sense of the scale, just like the Lebron James 227 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 2: of game managers. He is, he's he can do it. 228 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 2: He gets but yeah, he gets everybody involved. He he 229 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 2: doesn't try to do too much. He is, uh, we'll 230 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 2: get in some more. I believe in the second segment 231 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 2: just about ways, I think they could attack Cousins in 232 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 2: that passing attack. But he's not an old man. He's 233 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: he's definitely playing up to his value right now. 234 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 3: Quality at running back once again. You know, here you 235 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 3: are with yeah, with b John Robinson and Tyler Algier. 236 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 8: Uh. 237 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 3: You know they they do a really nice job of 238 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 3: of running the football and a lot of it has 239 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 3: to do with the scheme. You know, I think that 240 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 3: when you here's another one of those we seem to 241 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 3: be dealing with all these young play callers, Zach Robertson 242 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 3: has done a really nice job of of taking what 243 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 3: he has with the game manager, but then marrying it 244 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 3: to the running game. You know, they're going to attack 245 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 3: the middle of the field, which that's kind of Kirk Cousins. 246 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 3: He's not going to throw the ball outside the pocket much. 247 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 3: He's going to stand right there in the middle and 248 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 3: he's going to throw. And they've got you know, they 249 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 3: finally have somebody that can get the ball to Kyle Pitts. Uh. 250 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: You know, forever it seemed like that they were just 251 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 3: wasting his talent, the big tight end out of Florida. 252 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 3: Now they've got a guy that can actually, you know, 253 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 3: throw that ball up the scene, attack those seams, and 254 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 3: you know, that's what they've been able to do. And 255 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 3: he's Kirk Cousin's always playing at a high level. The 256 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 3: thing that always kind of affects him though, and Dallas 257 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 3: has played him a couple of times up there in 258 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 3: Minnesota where where pressure has bothered him. And that's where 259 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 3: I think that this and I think that's what Nick's 260 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 3: gonna probably tell us about, is that there's ways to 261 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 3: attack this guy and maybe force him into some mistakes. 262 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 6: Which sounds great. But the one thought that pops into 263 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 6: my head, I'm like, can we can the Cowboys generate 264 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 6: or create some pressures? So that the question that is 265 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 6: a big question there and seeing if they can somehow 266 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 6: try to I don't even know how to change things 267 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 6: up and be able to start generating some of that 268 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 6: because we haven't seen it all season. 269 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 10: Really. 270 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll get into that in the in the second 271 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 4: or third segment as well. Just talk about this Cowboys defense, 272 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 4: some interesting numbers around that. All right, we're gonna take 273 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 4: our first break, We're going to come back. We'll dive 274 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 4: a little deeper into this Atlanta offense. We'll be back 275 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 4: Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio. 276 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 10: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the 277 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 10: cheetah Savannah.

What does he do really well and where 343 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 4: can you find where can you also challenge him in 344 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 4: areas where where he might be a little deficient? 345 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 9: Go ahead, yeah, I'll start. 346 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 3: Feel free, Yeah, feel free. 347 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. 348 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 9: He loves the middle of the field, Yes, he does. 349 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 9: He absolutely loves the middle of the challenge. 350 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 2: That Week five win against Tampa Bay on the Thursday 351 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 2: night where he threw for a million yards, he had 352 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 2: three hundred and seventy plus yards over the middle of 353 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 2: the field. 354 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 9: Yeah. 355 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 4: Wait, how much he to have the rest of the 356 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 4: field there? 357 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 2: One d and thirty issues Yeah yeah, yeah, So it's 358 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 2: it was a heavy, heavy difference there. So outside the numbers, 359 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 2: if they could start pushing some things to the boundary, 360 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 2: I think in coverage, then you might be able to 361 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 2: find a little success there. However, he has so many 362 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 2: weapons that are just getting better by the week. 363 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 9: Kyle Pitts is on his best four game stretch for 364 00:15:58,480 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 9: his career right now. 365 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 2: He's a guy they've used a high pick on I 366 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 2: believe what was a seventh overall, eighth overall something like 367 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 2: that a few years ago, and he has just not 368 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 2: been able to put it together. They haven't really gotten 369 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 2: him involved in the passing offense quite quite frequently. But 370 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 2: now with Kirk Cousins in the mix, he is getting 371 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: Pits involved and this is the best four game stretch 372 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 2: of his career. But if you're asking what he does 373 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: really well, loves the middle of the field. 374 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 9: I don't want to take too much. 375 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 3: Away, but no, I mean I love when you do that. 376 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 3: That's good. I appreciate you watching that tape. You got 377 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 3: to press these receivers easier said than done. You get 378 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 3: these guys free access to kill you in routes. Yeah, 379 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 3: that's what they do. There's a lot of there's a 380 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 3: lot of movement. There's movement to movement, and so there's 381 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 3: a lot of guys kind of you know, Moody, London, McLeod, 382 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 3: they all kind of they play a lot of eleven personnel, 383 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 3: you know, with the three wide receivers and then the 384 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 3: tight end. But there's a lot of movement within that, 385 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 3: the motions and things. So you kind of deal with 386 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 3: that but when these guys get pressed, they're a different 387 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 3: group of receivers and they and it's not they don't 388 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 3: have as much success. And so when you watch people 389 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 3: play tight on them and make them have to make 390 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 3: contested plays, it's a little bit of a problem for them. 391 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 3: And it's been a little bit of a problem for 392 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins to fit some balls. When I was watching, 393 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 3: I mean, he'll we talk about the middle of the field, 394 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 3: the routes in the middle of the field, the seams, 395 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 3: all those places that he works. He gets pressure, that 396 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 3: ball will come flying out of his hand in a 397 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 3: funny way. And sometimes these receivers, when they're dealing with 398 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 3: bodies on them, will you know, they will struggle to 399 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 3: make the reception or you'll see some type of an interception. 400 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 3: Went back and watched all those interceptions, all seven of them. 401 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 3: You know, a lot of them were attacks to the 402 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 3: middle of the field Pittsburgh early in the game. Week 403 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 3: one was pressure in his face and then you know, 404 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 3: as he's he gets affected by that, ball flies out 405 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 3: of his hands. So that's what you have to do. 406 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 3: Amber's right, how do you get pressure? That's gonna be 407 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 3: some key. I think Dallas has to take a chance 408 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 3: and hopefully you got guys like Bland and maybe Carson 409 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 3: and others back take a chance press these guys make 410 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 3: These guys have to win off the line of scrimmage, 411 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 3: you know, because if you it might be a problem 412 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 3: because if you don't get pressure, maybe a Parsons gets back, 413 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 3: maybe that you could get some pressure there. Because Matthews, 414 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 3: that left tackle has been giving up some pressures here lately. 415 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 3: You know, Lynstrom the right guard has been giving up 416 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 3: some pressures. Yeah, so you know there's ways to do this, 417 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 3: but you just have to be committed to making it work. 418 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 3: And if but if you play off coverage against these guys, 419 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 3: you're playing right into their hands because this quarterback he 420 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 3: will he'll pick you apart. 421 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 4: That way, when you mentioned them playing press, that's a 422 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 4: good way to be able to kind of combat what 423 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 4: they want to do. 424 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 7: Right. 425 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 4: Is that something that you've seen the Dallas defensive backs 426 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 4: do often and or do well. 427 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 3: Play a lot of his own, play a lot of 428 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,360 Speaker 3: his own And that's the thing. I mean, it's you're 429 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 3: trying to think about ways of getting off the field, 430 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 3: and you're thinking about, Okay, what is Atlanta's weakness in 431 00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 3: my opinion, when you watch their receivers play, they in 432 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 3: routes and stuff, they're good, they can make plays, but 433 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 3: when teams get up on them, their catch numbers go 434 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 3: way down. So I'm just I mean, I'm like, I'm 435 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,959 Speaker 3: working on mysteries. I've got some clues, you know, but 436 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 3: I don't I might not have the personnel to do 437 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 3: it either. It's like last week with San Francisco, we 438 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 3: were like, hey, man, if you could just control the 439 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 3: middle of the field, well safeties fall apart. You know. Well, 440 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 3: if you could just well they don't take advantage of that, 441 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 3: you know, I mean, there was That's the problem you're 442 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 3: running into right now. This is a really good offense 443 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 3: because the two backs. I think the wide receivers are 444 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 3: good wide receivers, and the quarterback is capable of making plays. 445 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 3: But you got to be willing to maybe do something 446 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 3: you're not comfortable doing, you know, and maybe it allows 447 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 3: you to do that if you have digs and you 448 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 3: have Bland, and you have Lewis and just you know, 449 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 3: you can get up on these guys and affect him 450 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 3: that way. 451 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 2: A couple of stats to back up the point about 452 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 2: pressure versus no pressure on Kirk Cousins. He has faced 453 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 2: pressure on eighty seven passing attempts so far this season. 454 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 2: He has seven interceptions on the year. Six of those 455 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 2: have come against pressure. Also, when he is pressured, his 456 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 2: passer rating has dropped by nearly fifty points. It goes 457 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 2: from one to eleven point seven all the way down 458 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 2: to sixty eight point five. 459 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 3: So I can only talk about it. Yeah, I can't 460 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 3: help you any other way other than that. Yeah, I 461 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 3: mean it's and it's clear on film. Yeah, it's clear 462 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 3: on film. Because the great thing about this, the next 463 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 3: gen stuff that we have, you can go and separate 464 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 3: all the pressures. Yeah, and now watch him. Now Wat's like, 465 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 3: oh okay, this is how you can watch the normal 466 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 3: tape and you're like, oh, I was a good throw. 467 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 3: Oh there's another good throw. You know, he's gonna stand 468 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 3: right in the middle of that pocket and he's going 469 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 3: to deliver the football and you know where he is. 470 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 3: He's not going to run around. You've played against some 471 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 3: run around dudes. You know that, the dude at the 472 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 3: Ravens run. 473 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 4: Around guy he's party last week. 474 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 3: Well, he's more like the guy that you played in 475 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 3: week two. When you look at you know, when you 476 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,719 Speaker 3: look at car, I mean, he's going to stand there 477 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 3: and deliver the baby. And I know it's a bad 478 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 3: thought about Car, but he but that's kind of where 479 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 3: this guy is gonna be. He's gonna be standing right 480 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 3: there in the middle of that. 481 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 6: Pocket you mentioned pretty last week. I mean, there were 482 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 6: many instances where you're watching he's having all the time 483 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 6: in the world just sitting there in the pocket, and 484 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 6: you're like, oh my god, oh my god. So again, 485 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 6: it sounds great that that's an area where they could 486 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 6: but it's like can they can they? I mean maybe 487 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 6: utilizing some of your linebackers. We've seen overshown he has 488 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 6: that kind of potential. 489 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 3: This is where I want to go next. And Nick 490 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 3: helped me on this one. I meant to ask you 491 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 3: this question last night. Absolutely what you saw with Overshowing 492 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 3: on the Blitz, can you turn him into something like 493 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,360 Speaker 3: what Michael Parsons was, like a poor man's Michael Parsons 494 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 3: for sure. 495 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 12: I think yeah. 496 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,360 Speaker 4: I think when Michael first went down, I think that's 497 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 4: something they can do out there. No, no, no, what I'm 498 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 4: saying is I think it's something we all through out there, 499 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,639 Speaker 4: like maybe that's an option of what they can do. 500 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 4: But I think you're right. I think, but at this 501 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 4: point I'm trying anything I can do, especially against a 502 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 4: team like this. Words so apparent, but hes gonna get 503 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 4: pressure on it. Yeah, if you can get pressure on him, 504 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 4: you can actually force And I think last week you 505 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 4: made the point Nick that you might give up pass 506 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 4: rush last week in order to keep them from gashing 507 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 4: you in the run game. 508 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 3: You played well on the edge against them the tosses 509 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 3: and stuff. 510 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 4: The question becomes, this week, do you decide to maybe 511 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,360 Speaker 4: flip that narrative and say, hey, we'll take a few 512 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 4: more chances and really try to get up field because 513 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 4: we know the quarterback won't take off running on right, 514 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 4: so on obvious passing downs, maybe we go after them 515 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 4: and maybe we really, you know, try to blitz a 516 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 4: little bit more in order to create the pressure that 517 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 4: we need. 518 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, Overshown's an option as well as lea foul. He's 519 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 2: probably not as big and probably can't take on those 520 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 2: one on ones as well as Overshown, but he's a 521 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 2: guy that has been using situational blissing throughout his career, 522 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 2: coming down from the second level. 523 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 9: Get those guys involved, That's what. 524 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 2: And I understand maybe not wanting to in this game 525 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,959 Speaker 2: specifically because because you need well, yes, but you need 526 00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 2: to cover in the middle of the field, like we're 527 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 2: talking passing down. You need to cover the middle of 528 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 2: the field. You need to have all three bodies there. 529 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 4: Which is important. You got those, those linebackers and safeties. 530 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 6: Are what's more important here? What are you trying to do? 531 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 9: You tell me he's not he's not wrong, But you 532 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 9: got no answer. 533 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 3: Like how do you want to die slow death or 534 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 3: a quick death? 535 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 6: I mean, give me the slow one. Maybe the offense 536 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 6: can pick. 537 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 3: It up for talking about yesterday. Then do you make 538 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 3: safety changes? You know, all of a sudden, do you 539 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 3: have a different idea like hooker juan Ye Thomas something. 540 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 3: Do you do something different in the you know, in 541 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 3: the middle of the field, you know, I mean, hell, 542 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 3: I would, I would damn even think about this is 543 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 3: crazy thought. I think about putting Jordan Lewis back there. 544 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 3: I mean, just something something that like if if. 545 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 4: Back at safety, well, yeah, something that. 546 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 3: Some guy that plays with awareness, some guys that sees it, 547 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,239 Speaker 3: some guy that could drive on the ball, you know, 548 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 3: some guy that that's the problem. These teams are just 549 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 3: so comfortable running routes in the middle of the field. 550 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 3: It's just it's amazing. How and that's I don't know, 551 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 3: because in this game you got two backs at average 552 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 3: about five and a half yards of carry, you know, 553 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 3: and that's you know, and here we are once again. 554 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 3: You want to stop these two backs and bar play 555 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,919 Speaker 3: stack box. Put eight down there. They don't. They average 556 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 3: less than three yards of carry when they play. When 557 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 3: teams play stack box against them, you play light box 558 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 3: six or less or neutral box seven or less, they 559 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,400 Speaker 3: kind of they have some success. You put eight down 560 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 3: in there, they have problems. Well, here's Dallas play eight 561 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 3: in the box. Don't play very well with eight in 562 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 3: the box. You know, maybe that's something different. Maybe if 563 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 3: it is eight in the box, maybe there isn't more 564 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 3: about Wilson being down there. Maybe you have to play 565 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 3: a little bit more single high, but that could be death. 566 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 3: But how this guy throws the ball against maybe a 567 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 3: single high look up the seams. 568 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 2: So for you, Brian Broadus, yeah, if you're putting eight 569 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 2: in the box, you have a little bit more confidence. 570 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 2: If Deron Bland is back that you can have success 571 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 2: on one one matches on the outside. 572 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 3: I do see. 573 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 2: I think there could be a little bit more confidence 574 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 2: there because not only will putting eight in the box 575 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 2: help against those two runners, but it also helps covering 576 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 2: in the middle of the field. So it's like I 577 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 2: would almost look at loading up the middle of the field, 578 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 2: loading up the box on almost every day. 579 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 3: That's what we talked about last week, you know, I mean, 580 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,360 Speaker 3: you know, you if if you could, if you could 581 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 3: stop the run, you put eight down there. That's that's 582 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 3: team's answers. That's just how if you get if you're 583 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 3: getting crushed in the running game, you make it an 584 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 3: eight man box and you just say, we got more 585 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 3: than you could block. Problem is you got more, but 586 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 3: they block you with less blockers than they need. And 587 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 3: that's that's the issue. And a lot of it has 588 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 3: to do with the tackling and all. But this is tough. 589 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 3: A couple of different ways you can go, but none 590 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 3: of them are easy. 591 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 2: I'll tell you this, if Kyle Pitts lines up against 592 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 2: Donovan Wilson on that first possession, we wouldn't go ahead 593 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 2: and start writing our stories, yeah, because that's that's It's 594 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 2: going to be very similar to how Kittle had success 595 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 2: against Wilson last week, except the difference here is that 596 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 2: Pitts has longer strides. He can get across the middle 597 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 2: of the field a lot quicker than Kittle can. Kittle 598 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 2: just had a little bit more physicality at times, but 599 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 2: he was still able to run away. 600 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 3: I think I think Kittle can run away from me. 601 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 3: I think Pitts. I think Pitt's. The thing that makes 602 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 3: Pitts tough is he's so damn big. He's tall, and 603 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 3: he's long, and even like some overthrows to him are like, WHOA, 604 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 3: that's a really bad overthrow, you know, I mean defending 605 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 3: that guy his reach and all. But the thing with 606 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 3: Kittle is he's able to scoot. I think Pitts is 607 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 3: a long strider, like Nick's talking about, covers some ground. 608 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 3: But man Kittle could get across, Pitts gets vertically. It's 609 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 3: kind of a damned if you do if damned if 610 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 3: you don't kind of situation. 611 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 2: Now, it's almost a situation when I was looking at 612 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 2: it on film, I was kind of having to posit. 613 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 9: And go, who do you put on this guy? 614 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, because he lines up in the slot, they put 615 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 2: him on the ball as well. So he's getting a 616 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,199 Speaker 2: quick release off the line. Sometimes he'll be lined up 617 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 2: against a nickel, which on his first touchdown against Tampa 618 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 2: this last week, he was lined up against a nickel 619 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,360 Speaker 2: and then at the top of his route, nickel tried 620 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 2: to give him a little bit of a fight and 621 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 2: he fell down wide open, down down the middle of 622 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 2: the field. So if you're putting Jordan Lewis in that situation, okay, Yes, 623 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:14,959 Speaker 2: Jordan Lewis has a little bit of dog to him. 624 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 2: He can fight a little bit, but at the end 625 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,479 Speaker 2: of the day, Pitts is so much bigger And if 626 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 2: you're putting a Donovan Wilson on him, then you're sacrifice. 627 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,160 Speaker 4: For k That's just say, would you he's a he's 628 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 4: a long guy. 629 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 9: Tall guy right overshown would be an option as well. 630 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:29,959 Speaker 3: I might need him rushing. 631 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 4: I'm not saying I kind of need him to do 632 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 4: other things, right, How can he do on one play man? 633 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 4: Just but honestly, I really think that this might be 634 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 4: a game where you use mcgwuamou in that way. He's 635 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:42,239 Speaker 4: got a little toughness in him. 636 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 3: Wait, he'll put him on Kittle, Yeah, he'll put him long. 637 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 4: I think I'd like to see MCWAMU kind of get 638 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 4: a little opportunity to maybe match up there. Yeah, that's 639 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 4: not about think of anybody you got on the team. 640 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 4: I think right now he's say I would feel good 641 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 4: about Yeah, yeah, all right, let's take our first break, 642 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 4: our second break. We'll come back. I do one talk 643 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 4: about these running backs a little bit because they will 644 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 4: be a challenge and of themselves outside of what we've 645 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 4: already talked about, of the challenge to trying to stop 646 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 4: their passing game.

Real quick, Nick, you 708 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 4: said you had a couple more quick little nuggets for 709 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 4: us on the passing game before we moved on to 710 00:30:59,000 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 4: the running game. 711 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, of things I just want to point out, and 712 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 2: if you'll have takes on this, feel free to jump 713 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 2: in pre snap motion. Obviously we've talked a lot about 714 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 2: that with this offense throughout the year. So on Atlanta's 715 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 2: first fourteen plays from scrimmage they. 716 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 4: Ran pre in a specific game or just over excuse. 717 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 2: Me last week last week, sorry, they ran pre snap 718 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,239 Speaker 2: motion on ten of those plays. Do you know what 719 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 2: all ten of those plays had in common? 720 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 4: Completions? 721 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 2: They were passing place. So the first ten passing plays 722 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 2: they used pre snap motion. I think it was four 723 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 2: of the first seven or eight rushing plays they did not. 724 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:37,719 Speaker 2: So I think that's just something to kind of keep 725 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 2: an eye on. And typically it's like it's not a 726 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 2: guy crossing formation. 727 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 9: Most of the time. 728 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 2: It's typically like a guy going from the slot to 729 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 2: outside the number, or a guy inside the number coming 730 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 2: outside the number, and more times than not they will 731 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 2: not throw to that guy. So what they try to 732 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 2: do is they like to direct attention to the opposite 733 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 2: side of the field. Hey, you see Drake London moving 734 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 2: over here, be sure an account for him. All right, 735 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 2: we're going this way, ye, So yeah, pit's coming across 736 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 2: the armpit and just bang right there over the middle 737 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 2: of the field. Second thing I want to hit on 738 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 2: this is not a heavy play action team at all, 739 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 2: which is a little surprising given the running attack and 740 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 2: also given the fact that Kirk Cousins has been so 741 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 2: good with play action during his career. So this is 742 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 2: not the only place where there's some question of play 743 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 2: calling sometimes I think I think Kirk Cousins needs to 744 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 2: get a little bit more involved in the play action. 745 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 2: They're only averaging five and a half play action passes 746 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 2: per game, so I. 747 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 9: Think that's quite fascinating. Only wait for three. 748 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 4: That's really interesting, especially a game a team that has 749 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 4: this good of running backs exactly that they wouldn't use. 750 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, wow, it's a little a little surprising. So I 751 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 2: just wanted to point those couple of things out. I 752 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 2: thought both of those were really interesting. 753 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 3: Do you think it has something to do with being 754 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 3: new in a scheme that like when he was in 755 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 3: Minnesota heavy play action, but you're kind of when quarterbacks 756 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 3: turn their back to the defense and then have to 757 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 3: find everybody again. Do you think maybe because Minnesota he 758 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 3: knew where all the routes were going to be in Atlanta? 759 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 3: I mean, I know we're eight weeks into this, nine 760 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 3: weeks into this, but do you think that maybe him 761 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 3: turned in his back and not knowing maybe where all 762 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 3: the routes are going to be. 763 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 9: I think that's a good theory. 764 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 2: I think another good theory would also be maybe there's 765 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 2: not a lot of trust in what he has in 766 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 2: front of them protection wise. 767 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 3: That's that's a fair point too. 768 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 2: I mean, you look at this right side of the 769 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 2: offensive line perspective. I mean, we've talked about Chris Linstrom 770 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 2: over the years being this all world ass beater, and 771 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 2: he has given up twenty one pressures more than anyone 772 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 2: on this offensive line this season. His success is really 773 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 2: come and to run blocking though, but in past protection 774 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 2: it's not been there. Right tackle Caleb McGary sixteen pressure. 775 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 2: So I mean these are guys that have had issues. 776 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 3: Oh they've had Matthews Bergeron Linstrom. Yeah, they've all given 777 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 3: up three sacks. Yeah, I mean they have guys that 778 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 3: have given up three sacks in this you know. See. 779 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 3: So it's not like they're all like, oh, this one 780 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 3: guy's just they're having great seasons. I mean, they'll give 781 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 3: up some pressures. You know. It's interesting about On he 782 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 3: was the guy that was remember to say Draft night, Yeah, 783 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 3: between him and sim and Mazzi. 784 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,879 Speaker 4: Right's interesting because the thing that that's really jumping out 785 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 4: to me here is for everything that you guys are 786 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 4: throwing out there, that's like, this is how you can 787 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 4: beat this team. I don't know if Dallas has the 788 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 4: weapons right now with how much they've been compromised by 789 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 4: Andre to be able to take advantage of it. That's 790 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 4: the hard part. Now, if you get Michael back, yeah, now, 791 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 4: maybe working with something there, but it just seems like 792 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 4: there's there are areas where you literally can't take advantage 793 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 4: of them, and it's just maybe Dallas doesn't have the 794 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 4: horses to do it. 795 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,720 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, might need Michael Parsons. 796 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, all right, let's let's talk about the running game. 797 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 4: B John Robinson, Longhorn, great us. He's been averaging four 798 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 4: point seven yards per attempt this year. But here was 799 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 4: the interesting thing. They are only twenty fifth in the 800 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 4: league in number of rushing attempts. Yeah, they don't run 801 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 4: the ball a lot to say they've got really good 802 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 4: running backs. Why do you think that is? Have you 803 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 4: seen anything that may suggests why they tend to throw 804 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 4: more than their running And do you think this is 805 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 4: a week that where they look at Dallas and say 806 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 4: we need to run the ball. 807 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 2: Yes, on that second point, I believe so. I'd be 808 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 2: surprised if they didn't come out in this game with 809 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 2: Robinson and Algier and try to hammer it through. Because 810 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 2: Robinson obviously a fantastic running back. I'll get into him 811 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 2: a little bit later. But Algier is physical. Yeah, this guy, 812 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 2: he rarely gets stopped behind the line of scrimmage. He 813 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 2: is always gaining positive yardage. I mean, it was a 814 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 2: situation last year was like, all right, we got Bijon 815 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:31,839 Speaker 2: Robinson involved in this offense. We used a high draft 816 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 2: pick on him, We're gonna run him into the ground. 817 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 2: And then they're like, wait, we can really split these 818 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 2: carries up with this guy because this guy never loses yardage. 819 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 2: This is a This is a really balanced attack with 820 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,320 Speaker 2: two different style running backs that can both gain positive 821 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 2: yardage on a consistent basis. 822 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 9: Why they don't run them more? I don't really have 823 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 9: an answer. 824 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 3: They they got this scroup has twenty three yard twenty 825 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 3: three carries of ten yards or more, and they don't 826 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 3: And they just don't lean on it as much. I 827 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 3: know watching tape, I felt like Beijon Robinson was better 828 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 3: running to his left and and then and Algiers was 829 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 3: better going to his right. Which I was trying to think, Okay, 830 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 3: what why is there some rhyme or reason here, But 831 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 3: it's just kind of the way that the plays kind 832 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 3: of the broke that broke out. Like I said, I 833 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 3: went back and I started watching, like, Okay, give me 834 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 3: the run stuffs, give me the plays. Give me why 835 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 3: when they didn't have success, why was it? And it 836 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 3: was it was the eight man box stuff. Count the guys. 837 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 3: Stop the tape. Count them eight guys there, because when 838 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 3: they Robinson is only averaging two point six yards of carry, well, well, 839 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 3: well Algiers is two point seven. So teams are just 840 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 3: this is against eight man boxes. I was like, Okay, 841 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,799 Speaker 3: tell me how they stopping these guys, because if they're 842 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 3: averaging five and a half yards of carry, there's got 843 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 3: to be some runs where they weren't very good. And 844 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 3: the common theme and thread was count of Brian. There's 845 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 3: eight of them up there, and that's where that's kind 846 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,279 Speaker 3: of where I was saying, Well, if Dallas is you know, 847 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 3: if you're gonna sell out, play the press, play the 848 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 3: eight man box if you can, and then and then 849 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 3: hope for the best. And like I say, this quarterback, 850 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 3: you know and past the Cowboys have played him well 851 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,879 Speaker 3: when he was at Minnesota. They've caused him turnovers, they've 852 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 3: they've got sacks on him before you know, he'll stand 853 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 3: there and hold that ball and you know he's not 854 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 3: going to move around stuff. But to the running back point, man, 855 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,359 Speaker 3: it's it's gonna be about it's gonna be about can 856 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 3: you get enough can you get enough bodies in there 857 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:25,879 Speaker 3: to defend the run. 858 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 2: It's even more interesting too that they don't run them 859 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 2: as often, because with a rushing attack like this, you 860 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,720 Speaker 2: would think that the Falcons would be trying to control 861 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 2: the clock every single game time in possession battles. They've 862 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,760 Speaker 2: only won the time in possesion battle twice all season. 863 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 2: So it's it's it's interesting that they have these guys. 864 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 4: It's not. 865 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 2: It's not they want to find a big play. They 866 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 2: want to get all of these weapons involved. I think 867 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 2: with a with a fair share or fair split Darnell Mooney, 868 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 2: they have really been able to isolate his speed on 869 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:57,360 Speaker 2: the outside against guys. You saw that on a touchdown 870 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,160 Speaker 2: throw that Cousins overthrew, just a bit of a leve. 871 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 2: It was in the second quarter last week against Tampa Bay. 872 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,319 Speaker 2: But Mooney he can get out and if if he 873 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 2: can get lined up against a guy like Treyvon Diggs 874 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 2: and where he can really use his speed against Diggs, 875 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 2: that's a problem. And then London possession opportunities in the 876 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 2: red zone, that's a problem. I mean, they really do 877 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 2: a good job of getting these weapons this team. 878 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 3: They're their best pass plays and this is where drives 879 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 3: Cowboy fans nuts is the hitch plays. They they go 880 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 3: up and curl back inside and then and then and 881 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:29,240 Speaker 3: Cousins just bound those them and you look at Drake London, 882 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 3: you look at Moody. That's their primary those are the 883 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 3: plays that they're they're really really big on, you know, 884 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 3: so they're gonna try and get the ball out, but 885 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,879 Speaker 3: they're like their receivers or they do a really good 886 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 3: job of running those routes. I just was kind of 887 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 3: just curious too, London. I was looking at him the outs, 888 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 3: the hitch, and the slant, with the three top routes 889 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 3: that he ran. So if you're going into the game, 890 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 3: you're thinking, Okay, I mean this is the three I'm 891 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 3: gonna get. I'm gonna get some type of an out route. 892 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 3: I might get that that curl back in like I 893 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 3: was taut, the hitch route and then that slant, and 894 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 3: you know, it makes a lot of sense. Moody's routes 895 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 3: I looked at were the out the screen is one 896 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 3: that they're really really big on with him, and then 897 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 3: the hitch and the crossing route. So he's kind of 898 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 3: the crossing route guy that they that they used. So 899 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 3: if if they attacked the middle of the field with 900 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 3: the crosser, then it might be it might be number 901 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 3: one doing it. 902 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 6: Are they pretty good like moving the chains right off 903 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 6: the bat from beginning like first quarter. 904 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 3: I didn't feel like that they got stopped at the 905 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 3: first half. Absolutely. 906 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 12: Yeah. 907 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 2: Last week. Yeah, last week they were moving and they 908 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 2: have been moving the ball. They didn't play well against Seattle. 909 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 3: No, Seattle got after them. 910 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 2: I had pretty good, unfortunate error of watching that game 911 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:39,360 Speaker 2: in the entirety a couple of weeks ago when we 912 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 2: had the Sunday off and they couldn't get the ball 913 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,319 Speaker 2: moving at all. But aside from that game, they can 914 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 2: move the ball. 915 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:46,760 Speaker 4: What did what did? What did you see from Seattle 916 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:47,800 Speaker 4: that was so effective? 917 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 2: I need to go back one hundred percent, honest, I 918 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 2: need to go back and see a little bit more. 919 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 2: I think their interior generated pressure, you know that right 920 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,680 Speaker 2: off the top, and their secondary is physical, and they 921 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 2: were able to press. 922 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 3: Like Brian said, yeah, they got beat up in that game, 923 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 3: you know, and they got beat up on the defensive 924 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 3: side of the ball too. You know, Atlanta's defense got 925 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 3: beat up a little bit there. But the thing that 926 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 3: they that Seattle was able to do was the inside pressure. 927 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 3: That that was a big They They really struggle when. 928 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 4: Whether the defensive tackles or were they blitzing up tackles. 929 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 3: The tackles they were you know, Seattle. Seattle's got long 930 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,760 Speaker 3: ends long, tall ends and they got they got inside 931 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,799 Speaker 3: presence with push and that's what they were able to do. 932 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,839 Speaker 3: They beat up the Atlanta's offensive line pretty good in 933 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 3: that game. 934 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 6: I feel like I was just gonna say, I feel 935 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,399 Speaker 6: like in all of these games, most of the games 936 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,720 Speaker 6: that we've seen from the Cowboys so far this year, 937 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 6: the defense tends to usually do just enough in the 938 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 6: first half of the game for your offense to kind 939 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 6: of pick up the pace. But they that's the problem 940 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 6: that the offense doesn't do that. But I feel like 941 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 6: right off the bat, the defense tends to start pretty 942 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 6: good and just do what they can and to manage 943 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:59,320 Speaker 6: the game and stop the offense like the opposing offense. 944 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 6: But if this is an offense that right off the 945 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 6: bat they're pretty good at like moving everything and getting 946 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 6: to the end zone, that could potentially be a big 947 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 6: problem for this Cowboys team. 948 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 4: Is this the best offense the Cowboys will have seen 949 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 4: this season so far? 950 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:16,240 Speaker 9: I don't. I don't believe. 951 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 2: So. 952 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 3: Okay, Detroit, so I think of Detroit, Detroit. Detroit's have 953 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:20,880 Speaker 3: built Baltimore Detroit. 954 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 9: I think of when you got New Orleans in Week two, 955 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 9: when they. 956 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 3: Were helping you played New Orleans. Now you you probably run. 957 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 9: That, right, But I don't know. 958 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 2: I think i'd put this Atlanta offense over week to 959 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 2: New Orleans. I think it was just the way the 960 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 2: Dallas attacked them. 961 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:34,280 Speaker 3: It's just a team with these two backs. 962 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:35,240 Speaker 9: Now, it's tough. 963 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like Detroit, it was hard to deal with. 964 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 3: And you got a quarterback. You mean like Detroit's got 965 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 3: a veteran quarterback. Atlanta got a veteran quarterback. You know 966 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 3: you've got you know, Detroit has a tight end, Atlanta 967 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 3: has a tight end. There's I don't know, I think 968 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:56,719 Speaker 3: that I think Detroit's wide receivers are better than this crew. Yeah, yeah, 969 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 3: so I would I would say that. But man, they're 970 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:02,239 Speaker 3: they're they're very you know. It's like I say, they 971 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,879 Speaker 3: do a good job of getting some explosive plays out 972 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 3: of this group. 973 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 2: One interesting point, and I'm curious to get all of 974 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 2: your takes on this. In that loss against Seattle, Bejon 975 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 2: Robinson had his best day of the season, and Seattle 976 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 2: seemed content allowing him to get his but and and 977 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 2: they were they were trying to just lock down that 978 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 2: passing attack and not let any of those weapons get 979 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 2: get free. 980 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 4: I'm with you that, yeah, like let him run. 981 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 9: Are you willing to do that? 982 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 3: Yeah? 983 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 4: I mean here's the thing, here's the thing, here's the thing. 984 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,879 Speaker 4: Though he might have a great day anyway, So if 985 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 4: you're going to look at it from that standpoint, and 986 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,400 Speaker 4: I will tell you this, this is what worries me 987 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 4: the most about stopping this running attack. They've got one 988 00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 4: running back who's extremely elusive, they've got another one's extremely aggressive. 989 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 4: And what have we said about this Dallas defense in 990 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 4: a lot of games this season. They have a hard 991 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:54,760 Speaker 4: time tackling at times, Like I'm not a good tackling 992 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 4: team at times when you're going up against a guy 993 00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 4: who is very aggressive that takes you more than one 994 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 4: guy to get him down. And then you got another 995 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 4: guy who's really elusive that can make you look foolish 996 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 4: in the open field. That doesn't help your tackling ability. 997 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 4: Like those are things that directly make your tackling ability 998 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 4: to go down a bit. So that's the part that 999 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,879 Speaker 4: worries me most about this particular running attack is you're 1000 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 4: facing two backs that are going to be very difficult 1001 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:20,879 Speaker 4: to take down even if you were a good tackling team. 1002 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 4: And Dallas has showing signs this year that at times 1003 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:24,480 Speaker 4: they don't tackle. 1004 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,280 Speaker 3: Well, tell me if I'm wrong here. I'm more worried 1005 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 3: about them throwing the ball to their backs, then maybe 1006 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:35,799 Speaker 3: their running game, because they don't miss. 1007 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:37,360 Speaker 9: I see where you're coming from, but they don't. 1008 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 3: Miss I mean the running game. Yeah, it's scary, but 1009 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:44,759 Speaker 3: to me, getting those guys getting if you look at 1010 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 3: separation stuff like that, these backs they don't miss. This 1011 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 3: quarterback does not miss throwing the ball in the flat 1012 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 3: or throwing the ball to these backs. You know, you 1013 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 3: talk about get them in space. How well are they 1014 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 3: going to tackle? I just worry about their passing game 1015 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 3: to these backs that Dallas doesn't handle the screens or 1016 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:06,320 Speaker 3: the flat plays, you know, the balls thrown in the 1017 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 3: screen to Robinson. Here comes Wilson, he misses. Now it's 1018 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 3: a you know, I mean I can't check how many times, Yeah, 1019 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,360 Speaker 3: I mean times it was a It could have been 1020 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:17,919 Speaker 3: a three yard game. Instead it's a thirteen yard game 1021 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 3: because of their inability attack. They this these two, these 1022 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 3: two running backs only run the ball well, but many 1023 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 3: they catch the ball well too. I worry about that 1024 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:28,960 Speaker 3: all right, big time. 1025 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 4: That's a wrap. We'll be back tomorrow. We'll jump into 1026 00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 4: the Atlanta versus the Cowboys offense and we'll see how 1027 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 4: that plans out, because, honestly, with all the injuries that 1028 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:41,719 Speaker 4: the Cowboys have sustained as in past weeks, I think 1029 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 4: this game is really going to come down to how 1030 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 4: good can the Cowboys offense be. So we'll get into 1031 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 4: that tomorrow and we'll see how what we think of 1032 00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 4: that matchup. Until then, for Nick Harris and Brian brought 1033 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 4: a Snamburgarcia. I'm Derek.
