25
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: he was an athletic dude. I mean all you have

26
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,279

29
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: ninety nine to the house he had. He just couldn't

30
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: get his life going right then and all that, but

31
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,320

00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: just been like, I don't think there's been a forty

37
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: one of note in the time that I've covered the team.

38
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: I don't even know if there's been one period, not

00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: Keith last year, which did you see it? To my point,

43
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: and he played two snaps last year. I remember so

44
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: your consternation because you didn't like the fact that they

45
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: weren't at least when I when I when they first

46
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: got we got into the locker room at the stadium,

47
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: at the new AT and T Stadium at the time.

48
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: You know, they like had they had all the players

49
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: up there and they said Charles Waters. And I was like, no,

50
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 1: this doesn't work. Like I had to like finally get

51
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: somebody to get someone, and they finally like redid it

52
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: up in the press in the you know, in the

53
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,200

58
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: I just on and off the price. Let me say

59
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: something about Terrence Newman. You know, the fear about him

60
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: was he's twenty five years old, like he's an old player, like,

61
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: should we draft them? He played fifteen years? Yeah, I

62
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: think he's okay, he's okay. I remember it wasn't a

63
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: guy that was injured a lot. He told me one time.

64
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: I remember him saying, you know, everyone said all that, Well,

65
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: in ten years, I'll be thirty five and I'll still

66
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: be a better athlete than all of these people. And

67
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I probably will, and he was, Yeah.

68
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: Brought us used to every anytime on any episode of

69
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: the Draft Show, when a guy's age comes up, he's like,

70
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: and he can never just say the name. He's like,

71
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: whyon't you tell that to that number twenty three up

72
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: in Minnesota who's still starting games. Yeah, yes, I heard

73
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: a lot about that about number forty one played about

74
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: twelve years here. Now maybe we should shut up about

75
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: the uh anyway, forty one, which like about us? All right,

76
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: let's go. Let's talk a little bit about injuries. Zero

77
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: Lots of guys that are on this injury report and

78
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: some that are kind of interesting. Demante CAZy, he has

79
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: a hip injury, did not practice yesterday. What do we

80
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: know about him and his potential status for Sunday? He

81
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: was feeling it Monday Uh, he was still feeling it

82
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: Wednesday when practice was starting to get ramped up. They

83
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: were like, no, don't do that. Um, McCarthy thinks he's

84
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: gonna rehab today, classic something. Keep an eye on. He's

85
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: a vet player. He probably can't will be. I mean

86
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: if he feels right, I'm sure he can go without

87
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: a lot of practice. It's just something to watch. Tag

88
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: you're in man, Yeah, Donovan Wilson or Well, well is it?

89
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 1: I think it's probably more Malie Hooker. Well, I'm just saying.

90
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: I'm just saying here's another Yeah, Donovan is practicing. That

91
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: seems like a good sign. Yeah, it's true. I meant

92
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: from a Rosters day, Yeah, I got you, I got you.

93
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: Donovan was limited yesterday. What are you thinking that there's

94
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: a good chance he can play this weekend? I don't know.

95
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: I want to see YEA, at some point, when you've

96
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: been gone for so long, you got to get back

97
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: to full. I mean, you can't just be limited. Yeah. Yeah,

98
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: that's not one of those things where you don't practice

99
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: all weekend then you just jump out. He's been out.

100
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: Is not the place to go full for the first time.

101
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: He's been out for a month. I want to. I mean,

102
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: if he upgrades to full today, then I'd be willing

103
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: to say like, yeah, okay, But if he's they might

104
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: just be saying, all right, get some reps and you'll

105
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 1: get acclimated and then we'll have the bye week and

106
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: then you can go full after the bye week. So

107
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: we'll just we'll have to see. Yep. Let's talk about

108
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 1: Treyvon Diggs. He has an ankle injury, did not practice yesterday.

109
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: What do we think at It's not thought to be

110
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: significant per Mike McCarthy. He dinged it in the game.

111
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: He's gonna try to He's gonna try to go limited today.

112
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: That man, I think that's a classic case of like,

113
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 1: let's be smart with our stars. And I think he'll play.

114
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: Same thing with Zeke Elliott Ribbs. Yes, yeah, Zeke's gonna play. Yeah,

115
00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: And he was limited yesterday. On top of that, he

116
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 1: was this week. It was interesting you listen to Jerry

117
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 1: talking about that on the fan and you could tell

118
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: that he wasn't really happy with the fact that there

119
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: was something on the field that his player could land on.

120
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: He was like, you know, the league actually takes a

121
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: lot of time thinking about what is available of what

122
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 1: is on the field that players can run into, and

123
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 1: the fact that this was there, like there's a that's

124
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: a problem, you know, So I don't see what this goes. Yeah,

125
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 1: it seems I mean I I yeah, there's a camera

126
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: in it, Like I said, I assume it's there, so

127
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 1: you can see if a guy got a first down

128
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: or not. But but it's not consistent. You don't always

129
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: see that in all the games. No, you don't, you know,

130
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: I mean maybe is it just the game of the week,

131
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: the Fox game, you know what I mean, Like, it's

132
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,239
Speaker 1: not in every you don't see that on every first

133
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 1: down marker. I don't think you do. No, not that

134
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 1: I'm aware of. So I mean, you you love having it,

135
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: you know, late in the game you need you need

136
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 1: to you know, you need to know if he got

137
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 1: the ball there. I mean think about the game. Was

138
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: it seventeen where they had to put a card to

139
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 1: see if he's there? Yeah, you know that Raiders game?

140
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: Remember that? I mean, like the most surreal moment ever

141
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: that that was. That was unbelieving, which I mean, it's

142
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: just I don't know who he thinks that, Like, I

143
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: don't worry where he finally came to conclusion, oh, where's

144
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: my car. It's just further proof of how stupid this

145
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: whole thing is. And again, I mean Mike McCarthy. If

146
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: I really know anything about him, it's how much he

147
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: loves GPS. He talks about it all the time. They

148
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: can see how many steps you take in a given

149
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: day and how much they need to alter your workload

150
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: because of it. We can chip the damn ball and

151
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: see like, oh, did the ball reached the edge of

152
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: the thirty eight yard line. That's a first down and

153
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: should be known instantaneous. We can just we could get

154
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: rid of like thirty percent of the clutter on the sidelines,

155
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: which should we do that for touchdowns? So just like hockey,

156
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: like if he just gets in, just I would love

157
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 1: that's absolutely right, Like you should know that we have it.

158
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: And then we're all having arguments about whether the forward

159
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: progress was there or if he got thrown back, and

160
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: everyone's like, those are out of the horn, went off town.

161
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: It's fun. Yeah, I love it all right, So let's

162
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: do this. We're gonna take our first break a little

163
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: early here, but we're gonna take our first back when

164
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: we come back. We'll be joined by Bucky Brooks of

165
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: NFL Network're gonna talk about this new England Patriots defense

166
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: versus the Cowboys offensive when we come right back. This

169
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: The crease in his hat, the bend of his brim,

170
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: and his unbending attitude a man. Stetson didn't just protect

171

210
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: now by Bucky Brooks of NFL Network. Bucky, Welcome to

211
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: the show today. Let's first start off with the fact

212
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: that this new England defense they're they're kind of interesting.

213
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: When you look at the numbers. They're fifth right now

214
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 1: in total defense, they're fifth and points allowed with only

215
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: giving up ninety two over five games. What's the strength

216
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: of this defense? It's a total defense. In the scheme,

217
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: they do a great job of playing team defense. It's

218
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: not a collection of stars, but the players fit the

219
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: scheme and the coaches do a really good job of

220
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: conveying to them how they want to play each and

221
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: every week. Some games it's the game where they don't

222
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 1: mind the team going from twenty to twenties, and they

223
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,079
Speaker 1: focus on being great in the red zone. Other games

224
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: just about heating up the quarterbacks. Then they're taking boys turnovers.

225
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: This is just a very sound defense that doesn't beat themselves,

226
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: and so it takes a very patient and deliberate offensive

227
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 1: effort to really light them up on the scoreboard. Bucky,

228
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,719
Speaker 1: Do the Pats have the guts to play man up

229
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,839
Speaker 1: on the Cowboys the way that they have? I think

230
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: I read that they've been playing man coverage more than

231
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: anybody in the league so far. Are they equipped to

232
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: do that? I mean, especially Gilmour's obviously not there anymore.

233
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 1: Just I mean, are are they equipped to do that

234
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 1: to this offense? Yeah, because this is what they do.

235
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 1: They line up and played man to man more than

236
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: anybody else. They're not afraid they play cover one. They

237
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: vary who they put in the whole, meaning the cutter

238
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: on crossing, rousing those things. But they're going to play

239
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: a lot of man to man because that's what they do.

240
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: It's the best coverage to play in National Football League

241
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: because it allows you to put an extra defender in

242
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: the box. You have tight coverage on everybody down the field.

243
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 1: And this is what they believe in. So No, I

244
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: don't think that they're going to worry about who Dallas

245
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: has on the other side. They're gonna play man to man. Now,

246
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: what they will do is they will vary what they

247
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 1: call their brackets. Sometimes they may take the double team

248
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: and put it on Amari Cooper. Other times they may

249
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: put it on CD Lamb And you may never get

250
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 1: a feel for who is being double team. But they're

251
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: gonna play some form of man to man because it's

252
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 1: the basis of their defense. And with all this coverage,

253
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: is Dalton Schultz just gonna go to the Pro Bowl

254
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 1: just because he's just got all that? I mean, no

255
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: one's gonna ever just do a game plan for him

256
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: and he just reaps all the benefits. I mean, do

257
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: you think that's kind of where he's headed. I mean,

258
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,040
Speaker 1: he may be, But if you're Bill Belichick, that's what

259
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 1: you want to do. The Patriots philosophy is to make

260
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: you play left handed. And if Dalton shots can go

261
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 1: for one hundred and fifty receiving yards, what Bill Belichick

262
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: could do is walk across the field and you're safe.

263
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy's hand. If the Dallas Cowboys win, because they

264
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 1: played the way that the Patriots wanted them to play,

265
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: and so what they typically do is they're going to

266
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: take away your first option, your second option, and they're

267
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: gonna make you beat you with the third option. And

268
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 1: if that third option is good enough, they just come

269
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 1: to chart it up and say it's your debt. On

270
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 1: that note, that's been notoriously how they've played defense and

271
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: been successful doing it. If you were advising him, what

272
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: would you say, is the one or two people tactics

273
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 1: whatever that you think you have to try to take

274
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 1: away and force Dallas to beat you without. Well, one

275
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: thing I want to do is I want to take

276
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 1: away the explosive passing game this week because the quickest

277
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: way for Dallas but points up is to air it out.

278
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 1: So I don't want to Mary Cooper and Cede Lamb

279
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: to go crazy in the passing game. If Ezekiel Elliot

280
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: and Tony Poll are running, it's a slow burn. And

281
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: I know that if they run it all the way

282
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: down to the twenty, well, now I can tighten up

283
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 1: and focus on that. So I am willing to concede

284
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 1: the running game, but I'm taking away the passeng yards.

285
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: I'm not letting the Cowboys get excited by seeing big

286
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 1: players go over the top of the defense. I believe

287
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: that's what the pages to do, because typically when they

288
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: look at a team that's balanced like Dallas, they'll say, hey,

289
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 1: we'll let them have the running yards because it's harder

290
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 1: to score a ton of points when you're running the football.

291
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: Can you do that effectively when you're running a cover one,

292
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: especially in situations where that means like if they're moving

293
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: the bracket that I mean, somebody's gonna be in one

294
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: on one coverage, and obviously if Dallas is one on

295
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: one coverage on the outside, they're probably gonna take some shots.

296
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: Is that there is their strategy doesn't work with their scheme. Yeah,

297
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: actually it does work with the scheme because here's what

298
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: they'll do. They will take the best corner and put

299
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: on the second best player. So let's say they deemed

300
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: a Mark Coup to be in the number one and

301
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 1: Cdee Lamb is number two. They may say JC Jackson

302
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: say hey, you go take Ceedee Lamb will double team

303
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: Ormari Cooper. So now we're going to force you to

304
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: throw the Don Schotz or Blake Jordan because we got

305
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: a double team on your number one our best corner

306
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: should be better than your second best receiver. And now

307
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to play on the inside guys to

308
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: find the matchup to win. And that'll be an interesting

309
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: matchup because I think Calid's actually have two number one

310
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: caliber wide receivers. That'll be interesting to see how that

311
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: matches up. But day Buck, I know you know a

312
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: lot of the talker and rightfully so. He's a good player.

313
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: Is on Matthew Judon over there, but I'm curious, especially

314
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: because he took a year off. How's Dante high Tower look?

315
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I think he's one of the most underrated

316
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: defenders in the league over the last decade. Does he

317
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: still look like that guy? I mean, he's a solid player.

318
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: I wouldn't call him a blue chip player, a high

319
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: end top ten talent at the position, but what he

320
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: is is he's a rugged, veteran player. But the high

321
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: I Q he and cal Van Nois do a good

322
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: job of doing. If this was hockey, I would say

323
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: they're the gooms, right, They're the guys to kind of

324
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: deliver the bit kids. They're the guys to kind of

325
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: do the dirty work that needs to be done. Matt

326
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: U John Doe is the guy, and then josh Ucha

327
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: is the one that is coming on like game busses,

328
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: giving them a little boost off the edge. Draft Show Baby,

329
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 1: Michigan Wolverine. Let's go one more question for you before

330
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: we before we let you go, are you content with

331
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: what Beyondish is doing at center or do you think

332
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: that we will see McGovern get some opportunities there at

333
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: some point. Yeah, McGovern has to get some opportunities because

334
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 1: right now, Beyondest is the weak link. And as you

335
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: get down to it and you're building your team to

336
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: get ready for a playoff run, everyone knows that Beyondish

337
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: is the fish. He's the guy that you attack on

338
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: the offensive line because he's having a tough time and

339
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: a surprising that a kid from Wisconsin who exhales at

340
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: run blocking is having such a tough time in both areas,

341
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: but he is, and so at some point his performance

342
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: is going to get him a spot on the bench.

343
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: It's just a matter of time if he doesn't pick

344
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: it up. Is this a week where the Patriots have

345
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 1: someone there in the middle that could exploit be Honish?

346
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 1: Not necessarily. I mean, they're guys, they don't have like

347
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: Evince Willford like they used to have that they would

348
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: put right over top of the head in the center

349
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,479
Speaker 1: and he would beat them up. So they don't they

350
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 1: don't necessarily have that. But if you think about this

351
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 1: team long term, because we're be going to hear the conversation,

352
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 1: right Amari Cooper and those guys talking about the Super

353
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: Bowl with the teams that you have to deal with

354
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: are the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the LA Rams, and some

355
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: of those teams that have dominant people on the inside.

356
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 1: You gotta be able to have an answer because they're

357
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: gonna put their best player over top of the center

358
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,679
Speaker 1: and beat them up, and it disrupts everything that you

359
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 1: want to do in the run game and in the

360
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,159
Speaker 1: past game. All right, give us a prediction. What do

361
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: you think is gonna happen on Sunday? Well, man, I'm

362
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 1: banking on the Cowboys being mature enough to go here

363
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: and hand their business. They're the favorite, and the thing

364
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: is they have to work through the mystique of the Patriots.

365
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: The Patriots aren't a great team, but if you don't

366
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 1: play well, they're good enough to beat you. I think

367
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: the Cowboys understand what's at stake. I think they find

368
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: a way to get it done. All right, Bucky Man,

369
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: we appreciate you. We'll see you next week. Actually it'll

370
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 1: be the bye week, so actually we'll see the week

371
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: after that at when the Cowboys start getting ready for

372
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings. We're gonna take our final break and

373
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 1: we come back. We got some questions for these guys.

374
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: We've got some fan questions that I pulled from you

375
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: guys off Twitter lasts. Ask these guys some of those

376

Speaker 1: a little bit. It's it's kind of getting interesting around here.

424
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,159
Speaker 1: You actually missed all the fun because this team is

425
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: kind of rolling right now. All the fun, huh, all

426
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: the funds over, like she missed all that was all

427
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: fun going on while she was. Hopefully there will be

428
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: more and hopefully she'll get to be a part of that.

429
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: But yeah, this, if it stops being fun, you gotta go. Exactly,

430
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: they were cool, We're booting her out of here. I'll

431
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 1: be fine with that. I'll be fine. No, I'll be

432
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: saying this whole time, do you guys seem mere? Okay, yeah, okay,

433
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: this sounds kind of loud on my phone, on my headphones. Anyways,

434
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 1: I've been staying super Bowl, super Bowl, super Bowl, Let's go.

435
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: But I'll be kind of pissed actually a little bit

436
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: if they make it too. If they decided to go

437
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl this year, it's just the decision now, yes,

438
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 1: because I'm not traveling this year, So if that happens,

439
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be kind of not kind of pretty pretty

440
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: upset because I've been through a lot of suffering since

441
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: I started this job. So they better. I mean, we're back, baby,

442
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 1: We're back. It's always something with this team, huh to

443
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: me emotionally, you know, it's like I can never be

444
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: fully happy, like on hope right now. But then it's

445
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: like I'll be kind of mad too, you know. It's

446
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 1: mixed feelings, but I'm excited to be back. Good. We're

447
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 1: happy to have you back. And I'm sure you've got

448
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 1: so many, so many opinions that you've been bottling up

449
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 1: over the last few months while you've been away. Actually,

450
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: it's been pretty relaxing feeling wise. You know why, because

451
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 1: I watched the game, so I don't keep up. Really,

452
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: I haven't had time to keep up with everything that

453
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,639
Speaker 1: happens on the day too. But those who don't know,

454
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 1: I ever had a baby, so she's been busy. She's

455
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 1: been a little busy. Yeah, go ahead. So I don't

456
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 1: keep up what happens on the daily basis during the week,

457
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 1: which is why I feel like, to me in years past,

458
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: that's when I get pissed because we watched them every day.

459
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: We were very connected and plugged in. So I guess

460
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: I've been like a casual fan that just turns on

461
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 1: the TV young game days, watches it here, and then

462
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,959
Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, Wow, they're doing good, you know. But

463
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: then I feel like now that once I'm back here,

464
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: kind of getting back in the two things and getting

465
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 1: emotionally attached I'll probably be getting up said here and there. Yeah,

466
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: be Idish was making me kind of upset last game,

467
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: but well, the good thing. It'll be good to see

468
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,360
Speaker 1: who we've been he's been making us. I don't want

469
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: to upset, but I mean it's been an uneasy position

470
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 1: that we've talked about for months now. Yeah, but I

471
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: was gonna say something that I always remember. Nick said

472
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: it a while back, how important the center is, and

473
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 1: that snap to me. I never really thought of it,

474
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: but when we were talking about okay, a rookie guy

475
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: coming in and then versus having an actual veteran and

476
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 1: you were saying with Andy and Andy he remember he

477
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 1: made some comment about it, and it was like, oh,

478
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,879
Speaker 1: that's interesting because I never thought about it. But now

479
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: we're actually seeing it. Yeah, I mean it's I don't

480
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:48,439
Speaker 1: know if McGovern you don't know if it'll be any better. Yeah. Um,

481
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 1: but or Connor Williams, like they're they don't have a

482
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: real good option right now. I mean it's kind of

483
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: holding them hostage. To use Bill Parcel's old term, Yeah,

484
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 1: if only they had done something every time we have

485
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 1: this stuff, this topic, That's what Dave ends up is like,

486
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: if only they would have foreseen this problem as a

487
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 1: problem and taking done something about it. But what else

488
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 1: is there to say? It's it's it's almost like the

489
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: time but three years ago, when they're like, we don't

490
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:17,360
Speaker 1: need a number one receiver, fine with these guys right here,

491
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 1: hold on, let's trade for Mark Cooper, Like that's that's

492
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 1: kind of what this feels like. I don't think the

493
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: wheels are falling off if they're not gonna wake up

494
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: from my flight home from New England like Frank Rack,

495
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: now I should. Yeah, Dave's like, what's going on? It

496
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 1: was interesting to me when they were earlier this week

497
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,160
Speaker 1: when Jerry had his call with the fan uh here locally,

498
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: he actually was asked about the snaps and he was

499
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: he admitted like, that's it's a bit of a problem,

500
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: which was kind of a shock to me because they

501
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: don't always coaches Jerry whoever, don't always just go out

502
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: and talk about problems with a player something that's specifically

503
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: a player. But I was kind of shocked to hear that.

504
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 1: And so if he's says that, and certainly there's something,

505
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,359
Speaker 1: I mean we have to think about, like and maybe

506
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 1: they're looking at this and saying what are our options here,

507
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 1: you know, I mean everyone remembers, Oh remember the time

508
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: Romo the ball went over his head and he kicked

509
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: it and he ganged back and he ran and got

510
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,920
Speaker 1: a four yard first sound yeah against the Rams play.

511
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 1: I mean Andre Gerard's the five time pro bowler, was

512
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,120
Speaker 1: the one that airmailed it over his head. I mean,

513
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 1: like like, and he had some misues sometimes with with

514
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,640
Speaker 1: you know, but he was also pretty good at blocking

515
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 1: and he got he got that under control. But I mean,

516
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 1: it mean, it happens, it just can't happen on a

517
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 1: regular basis. Yeah, And I do think that Duke made

518
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 1: some really good points. Duke manny Weather, who we had

519
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:37,400
Speaker 1: on earlier this week. I think he made some really

520
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 1: good points about what you have to consider and I

521
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: saw these on Twitter. He was talking about a center

522
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 1: and what all they have to do, and it is

523
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: a tough job. It absolutely is a tough job. And

524
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: you're talking about a guy that hasn't even had a

525
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: full season yet in the NFL as a starter. So

526
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: I think when you when you consider from that standpoint, yeah,

527
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 1: he's got some learning to do. There are some things

528
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: that he's not great at. Uh, there's some things he's

529
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 1: going to have to develop at and that's where the

530
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,959
Speaker 1: Cowboys have to kind of find their balance. If you

531
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: look at Steel last year, most of us thought he

532
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: can't play. They continue to develop him. This year, they've

533
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 1: seen the benefits of that, so maybe this is one

534
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 1: of the situations they just have to keep developing him.

535
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 1: Hindsight's twenty twenty and you, I mean, you can't put

536
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 1: that toothpaste back in the tube anyway. But that does

537
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 1: make it curious. We've talked about it. Tyler struggled with

538
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: the shotgun snaps last year. That's part of the reason

539
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: why Joe Looney was put in there. But it does

540
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: make you one And that's the balance between, Like there's

541
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: people that say you need to be tanking for a

542
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 1: draft pick. You can't do that, but you can keep

543
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 1: an eye on the future too, And I want like

544
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: they knew they had a chance to win the division

545
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: last year, and I'm sure that's part of the reason

546
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: why Joe played. But at the same time, it's like,

547
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: maybe we should be making this work with the young guy,

548
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: knowing that he's the future and its matter for him.

549
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 1: If we have some bad snaps on a crappy five

550
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: and nine team. That's just the breaks. Sorry, Andy, that's

551
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: the hand you've been dealt. And that's why it's a balance, right, like, yeah,

552
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 1: try to win the division and because you I mean,

553
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,640
Speaker 1: if you make the playoffs, who knows what could happen.

554
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 1: But at the same time, don't get so wrapped up

555
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: in what that means that you're not thinking about the

556
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,959
Speaker 1: big picture. And maybe that's kind of what happened last year.

557
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: Ill said Lenny really ready for retirement or was it

558
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 1: one of the things I have Shoot, he was here,

559
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: he was here last night. Should have asked him. I

560
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 1: don't know. It makes me wonder because I know his

561
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 1: family is here, so I don't know. If it was

562
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: kind of like the Cowboys didn't call me back, And

563
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: if the Cowboys had really wanted Joe back, I think

564
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: he would have been here. Yeah, I mean they still

565
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 1: wanted him back. Now, he'd probably consider it, I would, well,

566
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 1: I mean he can't now he retired as a New

567
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: York Giant. They happen rights, Yeah, it'd be a question

568
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: of whether he could get out of that, which I

569
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: would assume he probably could. But who knows, Well, I

570
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,399
Speaker 1: mean why division rival, maybe not just maybe eat their ass.

571
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: Maybe not, maybe not. I mean I don't think it's

572
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 1: a coincidence, and the Cowboys don't think it's a coincidence

573
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 1: that the signed him and he retired with them and

574
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,560
Speaker 1: all that. I mean, but I remember back in March,

575
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, talking to some people about Okay,

576
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: free agency started. You know, you always got to get

577
00:27:58,080 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 1: on the phone and figure out what's going on. Who's

578
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 1: going to sign, And it was like, yeah, this guy

579
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 1: will probably sign him, Joe will probably resign. Cool, and

580
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: then I was kind of waiting on that. I don't

581
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,439
Speaker 1: know if I wrote that story, but I had. We

582
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: were kind of getting ready, we were we were prepared

583
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 1: for a Joe saw him. I saw him at the

584
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: Star District and I'm talking to him and he was like, yeah,

585
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna sign. Just gotta go over there and get

586
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,400
Speaker 1: it done. I mean, I thought it was a done deal. Yeah,

587
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,920
Speaker 1: they didn't give it. They didn't give seventy three to anyone,

588
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 1: and like, this is happening. Even Kellen Moore mentioned didn't

589
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 1: remember that he mentioned it in the training camp. I

590
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,639
Speaker 1: think Joe's not with us right now. I was like, okay,

591
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 1: and then he signed with the Giants like the next day. Yeah,

592
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 1: so I think he was always sort of in the

593
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 1: mix to return, just didn't he left other than signed

594
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 1: on the show with Shannon and Nate. It's definitely weird.

595
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: I having said all of that, I'm not ready to

596
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 1: close the book on Tyler Beatis. I mean, yeah, either

597
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: this is they've played five games, so that he's started nine. Yeah, yeah,

598
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: see what happened. But watch they've been winning games right now, right,

599
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, you can't afford. You can't afford

600
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 1: to make these mistakes against better teams like that happened.

601
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 1: Of course, one play and they lose the game because

602
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 1: of that. Honestly, I mean, that's that's what it'll be.

603
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: It'll be that that drive against the Chargers going, you know, going,

604
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: gotta get five more yards, ten more yards, got to

605
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: get in field goal range and then all of a sudden,

606
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 1: snap is low and he couldn't get it up and

607
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: threw it and incomplete. Now they had to kick a

608
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 1: fifty nine yard field goal and they missed, and it's

609
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: gonna come back. And yeah, I mean they haven't been

610
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 1: in those games yet, you know, really were other than

611
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: that game right there where I guess Tampa. They were

612
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: they were driving for that, for that, so they've been

613
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 1: in those games. But like she said, that's when it's

614
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 1: gonna it's gonna happen. And honestly, I'll say this, if

615
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 1: it happens once, I'm not necessarily gonna be like, oh,

616
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 1: they gotta get rid of him. I mean again, that's

617
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: a part of the growing pains. And I personally am

618
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 1: a believer in once you show me that you can

619
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: do it, I believe you can. And what I'm what

620
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 1: I'm getting at with that is they've now shown me

621
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 1: that they know how to develop at least one offensive lineman.

622
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna trust the fact that this is a guy

623
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 1: that they're going to continue to develop until I'll see

624
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 1: it being a problem. That's that's a consistent problem. Now

625
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: if you go two or three weeks in a row

626
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: and he is the reason why you're losing, now, it's like,

627
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 1: all right, I know you want to develop him, but

628
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: right now you got a team that can go far.

629
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: You can't afford to let him hamstring you. And just

630
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: then and snapping just seems like such a correctable issue.

631
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: It's muscle memory. And again, I've never played center, but

632
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 1: I can imagine if you're not one hundred percent confident

633
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 1: that you can handle the guy in front of you,

634
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: that's probably taking up a lot of space in your brain. Right, So,

635
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 1: between the muscle memory and just getting more comfortable with

636
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: the speed of it, Like in the long term, I'm

637
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: way more worried about Tyler getting carried into the backfield

638
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: than whether or not the snaps are Like I just

639
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 1: I feel like that can come as you get more

640
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: confident and comfortable with what's going. I've never seen Dak

641
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: play basketball, but I bet he's pretty good, because that's

642
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 1: what you have to do, to just gather the ball

643
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: in like that. You know, that's roma was really good

644
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 1: at it. You take bad snaps and you you scoop

645
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: it up quickly, and you know, and that's what that's

646
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 1: all it is. The ball's not always there, but you

647
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: just at your handles. And so I bet you that

648
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 1: is probably pretty good at it, because you know, when

649
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: you're an NFL quarterback, you're probably pretty good at everything.

650
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: I'm guessing, even though I've never heard him, does he

651
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: play golf. He picked up golf when we went to

652
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: Mississippi State to do that movie about him. He like

653
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 1: that was like the first real time he'd messed around

654
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: with golf, and like by the end of the trip

655
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: he was like, yeah, I'm gonna start doing this. And

656
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 1: last time I heard he was pretty good, which is

657
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 1: again not surprising, right an NFL athlete. Exactly. I taught

658
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 1: Turns to Newman how to play golf. Brought us used

659
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: to say that, yes, now that you mentioned it, yes

660
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: I do. I brought us show. All right. So so

661
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: here's what we're gonna do. We got some questions for

662
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 1: you guys. Let's start first. This is a question I

663
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: asked Bucky and his answer was kind of interesting to

664
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 1: me because I kind of want to see where this

665
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 1: plays out, and I'm gonna be watching very closely on

666
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: Sunday to see how it plays out. But obviously, the

667
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 1: tactic for Bill Belichick has been for years defensively, he's

668
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 1: going to take away the best thing that the opposing

669
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,320
Speaker 1: team does offensive le He's gonna force them to beat

670
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: him with beat them without it. Um. So, if you

671
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 1: were advising Bill Belichick, what would you say on this

672
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: team would be that one thing tactic player that you

673
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 1: would think you need to try to take this away

674
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 1: If you can. I can't get over the me advising Belichick.

675
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 1: Yeah you do that. I laughed when you said it

676
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: to Bucky, and I'm definitely laughing now, So I actually

677
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: forgot what you were asking. So go ahead to start

678
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: with Dave because I just can't get over the whole, like, Hey, Bill,

679
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 1: Hey come here, nice nice hoodie, but I have to

680
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 1: tell you something here watch out. Yeah, I do think

681
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: it's I And so we talked about this earlier this week.

682
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 1: Somebody's got to be willing to really commit to stop

683
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: the run. And if Bucky's right, maybe it'll be Bill Belichick.

684
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: And if he's got what what well, But Bucky, Bucky

685
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: went opposite on that. He said, if I were telling

686
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: him what to do, I would actually say stop the

687
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: big play on the outside, which means I'm not not

688
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: what Buck. He said. He would do what Bucky thinks

689
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 1: that they're going to do, which is played cover one

690
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: and trust those guys. And that'll be interesting because we

691
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 1: haven't seen a team willing to do that very much

692
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,719
Speaker 1: yet this season. And then I can't wait to see

693
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: what that looks like. J C. Jackson really underrated player.

694
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 1: For as much as we rave about Digs, j. C.

695
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 1: Jackson has like fourteen picks over the last two plus seasons.

696
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: This year he got two. This year he had nine,

697
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: the year before he had nine and twenty twenty and

698
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: five before that. I mean, he's he's got ball skills. Um,

699
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: what I'm interested in. We know Jalen Mills, we know

700
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,239
Speaker 1: his work, and we know that should be we know

701
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: that should be a mismatch unless you're committed to always

702
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: giving him help. Like if I'm the Cowboys, I'm if

703
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 1: I'm Dak Prescott, I'm just like waiting for my opportunity

704
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: where they let him try something one on one. I'm like,

705
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: this is where we're going to get our money, right here, Eagles.

706
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: He played for the Eagle, right for you. I mean,

707
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 1: if I'm Dak, I'm looking at this and saying, if

708
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna play cover one and I'm always looking for

709
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: whoever's the single coverage guy I feel like. And he

710
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 1: said they like to put their best guy, best corner

711
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: on your second best receiver. Who is that? Like, Well,

712
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. I understand that CD is like

713
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: we still give deference to a Cooper, but um, I

714
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 1: think CD's pretty good and so if you're gonna put

715
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,879
Speaker 1: him against your top corner. I still think, man to man,

716
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:24,800
Speaker 1: he's probably gonna win a lot of those. I agree,

717
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 1: and then and I also think maybe I'm wrong, but

718
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: I don't. It's it's never that easy where it's just

719
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 1: always j C. Jackson alone and then bracket the other guy.

720
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm saying, like a handful of times,

721
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:39,399
Speaker 1: you'll probably have an opportunity where Jalen Mills is asked

722
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,360
Speaker 1: to handle something by himself, and that again, that's where

723
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: my radar goes off if I'm Dak Prescott. And then

724
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,760
Speaker 1: that doesn't even mention the interior matchups that that presents

725
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: if they really do that, I mean, if they're really

726
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 1: going pure cover one like that, then should be favorable

727
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 1: for Dalton Schultz, should be favorable if they ought to

728
00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,839
Speaker 1: go crazy. These logos weren't on the helmets. I mean,

729
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 1: this looks like a twenty point win for the Cowboys.

730
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 1: It really does. I mean I don't think it will

731
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: be because they're not they're not giving yeah, I mean,

732
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: but they're not scoring that many points either. I mean

733
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,879
Speaker 1: I looked at the average scoring per game and it's

734
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 1: like thirty five to nineteen Cowboys to the Patriots. I

735
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,839
Speaker 1: just I looked at the weather. I showed Dave the weather,

736
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 1: I mean, because that's another thing that's not supposed to

737
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 1: be the Yeah, So I just I don't know. Belichick's

738
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: not gonna play so like a small window. And we

739
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,360
Speaker 1: saw it in this past game. You know, they started

740
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 1: the game kind of sloppy, and I think we saw

741
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 1: that we're going around quite a lot but one of

742
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: those and they were able to pick it up. But

743
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 1: also the Giants they weren't doing much either, So I

744
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: think that's that helped the Cowboys. Can I get back

745
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: on track? And that's if I had to think of

746
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 1: something that may be concerning other than snapping and you know,

747
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: the center and all that, it's that aspect. They cannot

748
00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: start a game sloppy or kind of take them while,

749
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 1: because then we go back to last year and like

750
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: previous years where it doesn't go their way when they

751
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 1: do that kind of thing in the first half of

752
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 1: the game. So that's one thing I would want to

753
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: be careful or like for them to be sure that

754
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,359
Speaker 1: they do not do that kind of stuff, because once

755
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,839
Speaker 1: the opposing team starts scoring a point, then you lose

756
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: that momentum and then it's really hard to catch up,

757
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,840
Speaker 1: and as we know, they don't always they're not always

758
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,839
Speaker 1: able to catch up on time, even when Dak picks

759
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 1: it up in the second half of the game. No,

760
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 1: I would love to have Mac Jones down fourteen to nothing. Yeah,

761
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:36,400
Speaker 1: like that's I'll take that, because that not just him.

762
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 1: Their offense isn't really designed to just like, all right,

763
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:40,759
Speaker 1: let's go track meat, let's go up and down the

764
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 1: fielding like Cowboys can do that. But if it gets

765
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: in one of those third quarter and it's like thirteen

766
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 1: to ten or whatever, we've seen those games up there

767
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 1: like that, then then yet anybody's game. So I think

768
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 1: if Cowboys start out fast, and I think that those

769
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:59,399
Speaker 1: should be in good shaper. Yeah, the Pats have only

770
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 1: hit twenty points against New York and Houston, right, just

771
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 1: I know that's That's why I've looked at who they

772
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 1: played and who they've beaten. I mean, MATC. Jones has

773
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 1: not defeated a team with a veteran quarterback he's beaten.

774
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 1: They've beaten two teams. They both started rookies, you know,

775
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 1: I mean, and the Cowboys, I mean Dak is rolling

776
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 1: as well as any quarterback in the league right now.

777
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,000
Speaker 1: But does it not give you pause how well they

778
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:27,360
Speaker 1: played against Tampa Like they they didn't Tampa didn't just

779
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 1: run roughshot over them and they There are a lot

780
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: of people that think that they they had Tom a

781
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 1: little confused in that game. Seditions in that game sucked,

782
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: get it? I get that, absolutely so. But again, maybe

783
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:44,080
Speaker 1: knows Tom knowing like he's familiar with it. Right, But

784
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:45,799
Speaker 1: by the way, but by the way, I think that's

785
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 1: probably any question. Belichick has been doing it so long.

786
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,359
Speaker 1: There's not a quarterback that he doesn't have a book

787
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 1: on and know. Okay, here's what I think I want

788
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: to do to this guy to make it hard on him, right,

789
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I would suspect that he's got a pretty

790
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 1: good handle on what he thinks of Dak Prescott and

791
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,479
Speaker 1: where he thinks the best chances are to keep Dak

792
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,399
Speaker 1: from the things that he likes to do and force

793
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 1: him to do things that maybe he doesn't like to do. Yeah,

794
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 1: that just means that they forced him to run the

795
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: football with that those two offensive linemen that are great

796
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 1: at as high as anybody in the league, and that

797
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 1: running back and the backup running back that are. I mean,

798
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,319
Speaker 1: you know, two top ten running backs are coming into

799
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: the Fawksboro. I mean you've got you've got, and Tony

800
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: Pollard is leading the NFL, or leading all running backs

801
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 1: in average per carry. Zeke's third. I mean they're they're

802
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 1: Roland so so yeah, you can. You can do those

803
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 1: things that Dak is uncomfortable about. But I mean he

804
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: hands the ball here and pitches the ball there, and

805
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: it's tough to beat. So he's he's he's the goat

806
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 1: for a reason, and he's going to have his work

807
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: cutout for him obviously. This week. I mean, Bucky sends

808
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 1: his blue chip players. He sent me six this morning,

809
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 1: six of them. One of them. The only blue chip

810
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 1: offensive player is Mac Jones, who I don't think is

811
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 1: really that he's not a blue He's right teal, Yeah,

812
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 1: I mean he has developed their baby blue is what

813
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 1: he is. I get there someday, but I don't think

814
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: you call him blue. I mean he's got he's got

815
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 1: Nick Folk on there, He's got Matthew Slater, special teams

816
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 1: defensive guys. I'm like, are they gonna scorny parts? Yeah,

817
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:17,280
Speaker 1: there's turns that's I mean, it's it's all Dallas offense

818
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 1: first Patriots defense. I just can't I can't imagine the

819
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 1: Patriots scoring more than like eighteen points, and I can't

820
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 1: imagine maybe it'll happen. I can't imagine the Cowboys is

821
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: being held for of course they happen. I know, I know.

822
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I remember the Jets game just as well

823
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 1: as the next guy. I get it. But again, I mean,

824
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 1: you're just looking at game. You're just looking using all

825
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 1: of the tools and information available to you. Anything can

826
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:49,399
Speaker 1: happen on Sunday, but just looking at it analytically, that's

827
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,759
Speaker 1: how I feel. And frankly, we haven't seen the Cowboys

828
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,800
Speaker 1: do that this season. What we've seen is they play,

829
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: they do what they're supposed to do against bad teams,

830
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: and I would qualify this team as a I don't

831
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:02,839
Speaker 1: know if I call them bad, but they certainly are

832
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 1: at the very best their average, and the Cowboys have

833
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,959
Speaker 1: destroyed bad teams and have done pretty good against everybody else,

834
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 1: and the good teams they play well. So the Cowboys

835
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 1: haven't shown that tendency yet this year. This would be

836
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: the first time if they were to lose this game,

837
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: because I think that's not something they've been doing so

838
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 1: far this year. All Right, we appreciate you guys joining us.

839
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: We're back tomorrow. We'll get you guys ready for Cowboys

840
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,800
Speaker 1: versus Patriots. Till then, For Nicki Mcdave Hellman and Amber Garcia,
