That's the worst idea I've 30 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: never had your entire I love all the products, but yeah, 31 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not. I'm not a magic Mike and 32 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: you're black Tommy. No, no, no, we're not. Imagine I've 33 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: lost weight, but not then. All right, so here we are. 34 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: It's a week sixteen in the National Football Great slate 35 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 1: of games starting on Saturday that yeah impact the Cowboys 36 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: somewhat and uh and then the big game on Sunday. 37 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: And how you're feeling about things, Brian, you've been breaking 38 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: it down all week. Yeah, you know what, I usually 39 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: save this for the end. But you know, I think 40 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: that my game plan and every week I do a 41 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: thing called Cowboys win if Dallas wins. If this, to me, 42 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: is a game that you have got to just go 43 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: out and it's not about execution and it's not about 44 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: you know, play calling and all that this. You've got 45 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: to go out there and destroy Tampa's will to compete 46 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 1: in this game. That You've got to go out there 47 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: and give them a reason to quit, you know. I mean, 48 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: they've made some changes with Mark Duffner now becoming a 49 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator. They're playing a little bit better there. They 50 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 1: can rush the past, or they got an offense, he'll 51 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: throw it around a little bit. But there's a reason 52 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: why this team is five and nine, and you've got 53 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: to go out there and make them quit. You've got 54 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: to go out and find whatever whatever awful, dark feeling 55 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 1: you had in your stomach when you were three and 56 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: five and bring that back up this week and play 57 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: with that kind of attitude. You know, you you there's Tampa. 58 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: Tampa is looking for a reason. They've got one foot 59 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: in the parking lot right now. Don't give them a 60 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: reason to hang around this game, you know, I mean, 61 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: and you could say, oh, they need to red zone 62 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: and block and this, and no, just go just take 63 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: it to them. Play like you've played the last five weeks, 64 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis game. Indianapolis played that way. They did that 65 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: to you. You need to go out and play against 66 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay that way today to win this game. Take 67 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: out your frustrations from last Sunday on them. You need 68 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 1: you don't need this to go any further. Just go 69 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: go replay what I just told the guys on the fan. Well, 70 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: we didn't have an opportunity to hear that. Don't replay it. 71 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: I see if you can recreate and recreate it without 72 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: I said, go out there and knock the devil out 73 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,559 Speaker 1: of them to start, and let them go find a 74 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: nice soft pill to put their heads out. I agree 75 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: with you. Don't give them a reason to play. Don't 76 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: give them a reason to stick around and say, oh, yeah, 77 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: you know what, we can win one. Yeah we can 78 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: still beat the Cowboys at and T Stadium. Yeah, don't 79 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: give them any reason. Yeah, so it might might. I 80 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: mean my one gift two gifts to the Cowboys on 81 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: Wednesday was Zach Martin played. I think that's going to 82 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: be delivered that's a and the other ones take the 83 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: first drive of the game and go stuff it right 84 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 1: down their throats and score it touchdown. Yeah, not a 85 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: field goal, So you're not deferring. I am taking the 86 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: ball and going down and scoring. M I like, Okay, 87 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: I didn't hear your I didn't hear you say that 88 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: on one oh five three. But I like your attitude. 89 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: I think that's you saved it for here. Yes, I said, 90 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: I said it with a little more. Go ahead, Bryan 91 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: intensity No, Rob, I'm sorry. No, y'all are absolutely right. 92 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: You still have to do the things better that you've 93 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: been doing poorly in recent weeks to win this game, though. 94 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 1: You got to be able to finish drives because this 95 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,119 Speaker 1: is a team that you're playing that can move the ball, 96 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: and Dak Prescott has got to get more protection upfront. 97 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: Those things still have to happen for you to win 98 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 1: decisively in this game, and I think it can be done. 99 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: But they've got some things offensively that they've got to 100 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: show up, and they might win this division by default. 101 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: Who knows, you know, Washington might lose on Saturday, Philly 102 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: might lose on Sunday. He might not matter what the 103 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: result is the odds are still heavily in your favor 104 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 1: that you're gonna make the playoffs. But I'm looking you know, 105 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: if you're looking down to January, there's things they've got 106 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: to fix as well. Yeah, and fix QUI well, look well, 107 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: I think in Zach Martin back is. Yeah. I think 108 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: having an all pro pro bowled guard back in the 109 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: lineup helps. I think suel Philo will help. He had 110 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: a full practice yesterday. I think it's looking good for him. 111 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: Um So getting healthier up front in general, I think 112 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: helps your chances of both those things. And I'm with you, 113 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: I think defensively, I've marked that one as an aberration. 114 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: I think they're much better than what they showed. Uh, mistackles, 115 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: all those things. They can get that cleaned up. Everything 116 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: you're talking about that needs to be fixed was not 117 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: fixed during that five game winning stream. That's why I'm 118 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: kind of going that route myself. Now now that you 119 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: lost one, Oh my god, this in this, in this, 120 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: it's been this, this and this. They were able to 121 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: were coming during the five game winning streak. Yeah, but 122 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: you'll lose one and now everybody's on board. With the 123 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: offensive line. I don't think that's it. They're just on 124 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: board with the red zone that's been going on all 125 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: season long. Now they're on board with the sacks. Oh, 126 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: quarterback can't get sacked that many times. I don't think 127 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: that's it. I think people were very worried by that 128 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: performance because it wasn't an aberration, because it was innuation 129 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: of problems, as you just said, but it was the 130 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: things that have been haunting them all season's. That's right, 131 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: and you're in you're in mid December, late December, and 132 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: it's still cropping up. And what happens when the defense 133 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: has had they won? Nobody would have brought this stuff up. 134 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: I think it's been been talked about on this show. Well, 135 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: I mean, but I'm saying, do you see what's going 136 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: on now? And the press conferences, the questions that he's 137 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: getting those weren't the questions two weeks ago or three 138 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: weeks ago, and those same things have been haunting them 139 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: all season long. I don't know things, Robert, I really don't. Well, 140 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: I just said getting getting Zack back helps, you know, 141 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: so a philo helps? Oh? No, playing with Zach Mark, Yeah, 142 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: clearly a good thing. But you guys are absolutely right. 143 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: This is I mean, this red zone ranking is a 144 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: season long thing. It's not I think we all as 145 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: a show worry about what could happen to this team 146 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: in the playoffs with no protection, with no ability to 147 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: score in the red zone. You know, yeah, I think 148 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: we're all worried about that. To your of the opinion 149 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: that the red zone fix can happen until there's a 150 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: personnel fix in the off season, I think I think 151 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 1: the thing. I think the Rob was going the right 152 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: way when he was starting to talk about health. But yeah, 153 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 1: I think that I do think that's clearly the case. 154 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: I think they have to figure out whether that's whether 155 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: that's a scheme change, personnel change, coaching change. This is 156 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: something that will be a long, hard study when this 157 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: is all said and done. You're right about that. The 158 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 1: one thing I'll say about the red zones. Every time 159 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: they get down there, I have hope because they have 160 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 1: Zekiel Elliott and because they have Dak Prescott, because we've 161 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: seen those read option plays work for them with Dak 162 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 1: with Zeke. Every time they get down there, I'm like, well, 163 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: they've got there. They have talent to score and score quickly. 164 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: It kind of surprises me every time they stall it 165 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: really does. Maybe I'm maybe I'm a sap, but it 166 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: kind of no. I think we've all I think we 167 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: all believe in Zeke and Travis, Zack Martin and Tyrann Smith. 168 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: We all believe in those guys. It's that we just 169 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: keep we haven't been proven that has been proven to 170 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: us that it can work. But see the problem is, 171 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: and Lenahan finally spelled it out yesterday. Just what you said. Okay, 172 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: we got Dak and we got Zeke, but you know 173 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: what that mother eleven guys know the same thing they're 174 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: key in on twenty one and four, is what he says. 175 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 1: And it's like that that somebody else has got to 176 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: step up in those situations. Somebody's got to get open, 177 00:09:55,720 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: somebody's got to catch the ball, somebody's gotta the second. Yeah, 178 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: you know, but but they're gonna look at twenty one 179 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: and four. We're stopping them now beat us. Now, I'll 180 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: allay my you know my bet on stopping twenty one 181 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: in four. Now, find somebody else is gonna beat me 182 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: from the four yard line. But if you as we 183 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 1: chronicled earlier this week, the last couple of years, they 184 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: were perfectly fine in the red zone. Yes, they were 185 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: third in the league in the red zone in twenty sixteen. 186 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: They were sixth in the league last year in the 187 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: red zone. Seventy two eighty two exactly eighty eight, right, 188 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: makes a big difference, that's right, seventy two eighty two 189 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 1: eighty eight. That that right there in itself, That's that's 190 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: where I talk about where Lenahan is looking at it 191 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,599 Speaker 1: in saying they know the eleven no when eleven no, 192 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: but eleven are trying to stop three other things. I 193 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: didn't even include twenty one. And I didn't include four 194 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: in there, you know, like Mickey was talking about, that's 195 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: five different options that you have right there, you know, 196 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: or well, Travis Frederick being the center. But at least 197 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: I've said this, but even last you didn't have zag 198 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 1: Martin either. What happened, Yeah, what happened? When you know? Yeah, 199 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: they what happened. They run a fourth down play to 200 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: try and get a first down, to try and get 201 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: a fresh set of down to the goal line backdoor play. 202 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: They don't get the guard across. That was no center 203 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: and not your regular right guard playing there. Yeah, So 204 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: are those fixable right now? I mean they are fixable 205 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: if you put seventy back in the lineup, which Mickey's right, 206 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: he's gonna play. He's gonna play for you heard good 207 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 1: things about him yesterday. But again, is it Is it 208 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: gonna be enough when you get into the playoffs. That's 209 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: my worry about this football team. I don't worry about 210 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: the defense. I worry about I worry about what this 211 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: offense is going to do. And the other thing Scott 212 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: Lindhan said yesterday was he thinks guys maybe press in 213 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: a little bit because they've had trouble down there and 214 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: it's like, I don't have that. Here we go again thing. 215 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: You know, Oh, he's got it right now. There's catchable plays, 216 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: you know, Ola, Wally Beasley, Noah Brown. Although that wasn't 217 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: a great throw by Dak because of pressure a few 218 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,439 Speaker 1: games ago, they've had opportunities. You know, these tight ends 219 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: are coming along. Maybe that can help down there. Um 220 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: but you yeah, you said it. It's not the same 221 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: red zone group that. Oh no, We've all said it. 222 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: This is nothing new to us. How many catches have 223 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: the tight ends made in the red zone. It's a 224 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: good question. That's a great question, Bill, Bob, you got it. 225 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: I don't answer. I don't have the answer. I'm trying 226 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 1: to remember the ones that they had that were touchdowns. 227 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: We haven't had any of those. You haven't had Blake. 228 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: We haven't had the Blake jar when touchdown down there, 229 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: we haven't had a We tried to throw the ball 230 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: earlier to Rico Gathers in a jump ball situation there. Well, 231 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: I got an answer to this question. How many touchdowns 232 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: I'm trying to I was trying to give me some time, 233 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: trying to give you some time. Yeah, I was the 234 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 1: tight ends have I don't think the time they have one. 235 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: They have one one one Jeff Swain, Jeff Swain. Yeah, 236 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: I'm thinking healthy time. Yeah, Jeff's still out. Yeah. Yeah. 237 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: I see a lot of zeros here. And by the way, 238 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: we get we get tweets about questions about Jeff swam 239 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: and when he might be able to return. Anybody got 240 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: any else I do? I was told that he cannot 241 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: even think about playing until the screws come out of 242 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: his wrist. And when I was talking to him Wednesday, 243 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: he said the screws, uh, probably will come out in 244 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: two weeks, so that's the end of the season. And 245 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: then he said I've got to get movement back in 246 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: my hand. There's a rod in there. And he goes 247 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: and he showed me he was doing this. He goes, see, 248 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: I can do this here here I can't. And I 249 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: was thinking he's done. Yeah, he's not going to play again. 250 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: There you go, not this year. Yeah, unless you make 251 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: a long playoff. Maybe by the super Bowl. Well, this 252 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,719 Speaker 1: is this Bill's twelve game. All right, Now, we got 253 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: blown last week, but all right, this is where we 254 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: think about getting the cornerback on it. CJ. Good one, 255 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 1: good one back on back at practice because he yeah, 256 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 1: he's back at practice. But if they're gonna make a move, 257 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to use a roster spot. And it 258 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: sounded like no one whoever else is on. Are Dayton 259 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: Jones not gonna make it? William's not gonna make it back? Yeah, 260 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: if they're gonna activate, if they're gonna activate a guy, 261 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to make a roster spot move. Is 262 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: it gonna come from Swam or is it gonna come 263 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: from David Irving? You know, those are two spots right 264 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: there that you can kind of think about. And they 265 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: want good One back on there for special teams they do. 266 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: They do, so we'll see if they canna have a 267 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: difficult choice this weekend too. It's thinking about their forty six. 268 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: If in fact, the general manager would like to see 269 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: Taco play a little more, you know, he said, hey, 270 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: I'd like to let you know. And every once in 271 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: a while, when the general manager says he'd like to 272 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: see Rico Gathers play a little more, Rico Gathers played 273 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: a little more. So if you're smart, you kind of 274 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: figure that out. You get Taco out there some way. Now, 275 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: that means somebody's gonna have to sit, you know who 276 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: sits in that regard. I mean, I'm sure that's a 277 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: full another thing that we can get into. But and 278 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: here's a positive, because we've talked about a lot of 279 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: things that haven't gone right so far, they're they're pretty 280 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: healthy all things considered. In mid December, as I knock 281 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: on wood, I mean, they're getting healthier. They've got decisions 282 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: to make from fifty three to forty six on Sunday 283 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: because a lot of guys are coming back ready to go. 284 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: I don't know about Tavon. I wouldn't I wouldn't get him. 285 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: He's still he's still limited trying to work his way back. 286 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: He didn't sound like he was, you know, one hundred 287 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: percent last week. But other guys are getting back. Shawn 288 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: Lee's getting back. You know, you can judge that one 289 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: by how Garrett answered the question. Yeah, did we over 290 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: not we Maybe maybe too much conversation about the Shawn 291 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: Lee situation. Maybe that's taking care of itself. Did we 292 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: over over meaning that he's got to play, He's got 293 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 1: to you know, how do you take vander esh off 294 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: the field? And you know all that well wringing of 295 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 1: hands and gnashing of teeth caught me in as being 296 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 1: surprised that he played last week. Yeah, I thought they'd 297 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: give him another week and then this would be the 298 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: week he comes back. Yeah, and basically seven plays. That's 299 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: must have been thinking the same thing I was. I 300 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: think that they're they're thinking well, and and they kind 301 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: of explained it this way that it's kind of like 302 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: training camp preseason for him, working him in gradually you're hoping, 303 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: you're hoping this is a playoff run, and so you know, 304 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: just kind of manage it and get him back. Because 305 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: I was happing a couple different times and and it 306 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: was supposed to be a little more than seven. But 307 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: I think you know, the score got out of hand 308 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: last week. Yeah, I think he came off the field after. 309 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: So we're saying more Shawn Lee this week? Yeah? Or 310 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: are we saying Sean Lee for twelve plays? Yeah? Maybe 311 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: something like that, maybe fifteen just a guess. I don't 312 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: because I'm just asking guys. I mean we, I mean, 313 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: Brian Broadus made a big deal about Shawn Lee needing 314 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: to play, you know, I mean I made a big 315 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: I mean like, hey, once he's back, I mean, he's 316 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: one of your better players, he's what you gotta get 317 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: him on the field. They laughed at me and said, hey, 318 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: you know brought us. No, that ain't gonna happen. I 319 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: think that they agree that they want him on the field, 320 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: but I think that it's how much they cost. Well, 321 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: that's the thing. They've been burned now twice this season 322 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: where he's come back and then been shelved for six weeks, 323 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 1: and so now they've decided okay, And when you look 324 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: at it, even back in the preseason, he didn't play 325 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: in preseason games to work himself in. So now I 326 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,679 Speaker 1: think that they've decided, okay, we got to treat it 327 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,719 Speaker 1: as this is the beginning of his season and we 328 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: have to just gradually get him up to reps. You know, 329 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 1: run it out of games here, aren't we. The encouraging 330 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 1: thing is he said he's good. Yeah, he said he 331 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 1: feels good. Feels like nothing went wrong in the game. 332 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 1: So that was a good thing. And as for Zach Martin, 333 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: when I passed him in the hallway, I said, getting better, 334 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: and he goes better and I said, okay, better. He 335 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: went over there chop blocked you. How he was going 336 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 1: to eat those raviolis? Yeah, lobster raviolies where were excellent. 337 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: He's he's Jason witten Man. He's if he can but 338 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: if you win, he can move. He win this game. 339 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: You have a you have a unique situation that you 340 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,199 Speaker 1: could take advantage of of him resting, take advantage of 341 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: the runner. I'm I'm all for the win. This game 342 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: would be huge just for the runner, just to give 343 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 1: him a chance. You know, he's putting on this face 344 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: of give me the ball, give me the ball, give 345 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: me the ball, and we're all like, yes, give him 346 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: the ball, give him the ball, give him the ball, 347 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 1: Start the ball to him, give him the ball. More 348 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 1: you know, and now and now he's just like he's 349 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: this poor. You know, it's like watching an endurance race, 350 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 1: like a lament, you know, where the cars at the 351 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 1: end have gone nine hundred and seventy laps and they're 352 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: just banged up and beat up and they're trying to 353 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: finish a race to win a trophy. You know, he's 354 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 1: touched the ball three hund that's my racing reference for 355 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: the day, three fifty eight time. Yeah, there you go 356 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty eight times. You might have to 357 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: four hundred times. This guy might have to touch the 358 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: football for you. So that's like twenty about twenty four 359 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 1: twenty five times a game, and every one of those 360 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 1: hits is like just he's like, especially lately, he's hitting people. 361 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: Do you think you think he's taking hits because he's 362 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 1: not speedy, not quick, can't avoid. I think he's taking 363 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: hits because he's stubborn. Yeah, there's that's a good answer, Mickey. 364 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: He thinks he's gonna run everybody over, And Mickey's got 365 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 1: the right answer there. I was thinking that maybe he's 366 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: just he's so banged up he can't he can't run, 367 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: he can't run away from get just quite get away. 368 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: No one thing he does. He talk about the offensive line, 369 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 1: kind of setting the tone for the team when the 370 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: offensive line is healthy. And you know, he has that 371 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 1: toughness about the way he is. He's for that entire 372 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: yeah type offense that they want to have, right and 373 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 1: he is the bit between his teeth gap. He he he 374 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: wants you, He wants the ball, as long as that 375 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: official didn't come running in from fifteen yards behind the 376 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: play and throw a flag. Oh, you're being too rude, Zeke, 377 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,479 Speaker 1: You're being too rough. All right. I have a question 378 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: this is going forward next week. Let's say the Cowboys 379 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 1: win over Tampa Bay hallelujah, and then you want to 380 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 1: rest Zeke and not play Zeke or a limited number 381 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: of the next win the rushing title. Well, okay, it 382 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 1: might mean money for him too. How many backup running 383 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: backs do you have? Well, you really you have. You 384 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: can use Ola Wally as a single back and you 385 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: can't use Hey, and you could use Rod Smith as 386 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: a back obviously Smith Smith giant killer. Okay, remember yeah, 387 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: last time? Yeah, okay, So my question is running in receiving. 388 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: My question is next week and when you're looking at 389 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: the roster and so forth. Yeah, Jackson, I mean that 390 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: can you afford to bring him up? That's my question 391 00:20:55,760 --> 00:21:00,120 Speaker 1: is unless you want a story on the Mickey David 392 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 1: I guy. Yeah, I are David Irving, ir Swam, I 393 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: are all the guys that were gonna be inactive. So 394 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: my question is, can you play a game against the 395 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: Giants with only Rod Smith as you're running back? Right? Yeah? 396 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: I think those are those would be your two backs. 397 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: And yeah, Rod get ready for thirty carries. I'm sure 398 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 1: he would love that, you know, he would love that. Yeah, 399 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: I like your idea. What do you want to bring 400 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,919 Speaker 1: somebody up? If if I'm gonna put somebody on ir oh, okay, 401 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 1: thank you, Okay, right, if you can do the ir trick, 402 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: I'm all for yourself. You're worried about too too much 403 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: work for yeah, yeah, I mean because just because you 404 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: don't want to Smith, but you get you getting the playoffs. 405 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: There's no tomorrow. Yeah right, there's no tomorrow. Let's let's 406 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: let's be honest there. But this is the same way 407 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,400 Speaker 1: the Cowboys used to do it with him at back 408 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 1: in the nineties. I remember he's going into late in 409 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 1: the season and I mean they basically all they had 410 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: on their roster at running back one guy him at Smith, 411 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 1: Darryl Johnston and Derek Hammy ag. Yeah, they didn't even 412 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: have a backup running back. They had two fullbacks, you know. 413 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: And then they would sign up Blair Thomas late in 414 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: the season, you know, just to have somebody whatever. Yeah, 415 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: you know, and they've had the luxury of cutting Curvin Richards, 416 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: well you might, you might do it to bring the 417 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: runner up just so you don't have to deal with 418 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: that in the off season if you want to keep them, 419 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: you want to keep him. Yeah, you're kind of throwing 420 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: him the other thing. You're throwing it the other art. 421 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: If you're throwing them a bone there by putting him 422 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: up on the rostery, give him a little bit more 423 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: money that way. Now you have to make the decision. 424 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 1: Is he gonna be on your playoff roster? Yeah, you know, 425 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: that's that's the decision you have to make. Hopefully, those 426 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: are decisions the Cowboys will have to make next week, 427 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 1: I hope, and we continue with more Talking Cowboys and 428 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: take your phone calls and when we come back.

Hey? 517 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: My concern is I don't want to watch another defensive 518 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: effort like we just saw. So I'm going to ask 519 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,679 Speaker 1: you if we're watching the same thing against the Bucks 520 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: and their gashing this with the inside trap all day 521 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: and we can't rally to the underneath, throw and make 522 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: the tackle, what is the schematic answer. Do you walk 523 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: up the backers, do you go with a nine man 524 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 1: front and man at press fan outside? What do we 525 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: do to give an injection to the defense and get 526 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 1: them going again? I just don't want to watch us 527 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: continue to line up the same way and continue to 528 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: let the same thing happens. Thanks for taking my call. Guys, 529 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: thanks lady. When I was talking about the sky fallen, 530 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: yeah that I had. We had had a defensive question 531 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: in a while. Have we sky's falling to? Are you 532 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: concerned about what you saw last week against Indianapolis? Only 533 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 1: if we play Only if we play Indianapolis's offensive line 534 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl you go unless Yeah, the team 535 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 1: a comparable team to that would be the Saints. The 536 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: Saints offensive line, doesn't you know. But Dallas did a 537 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: great job of attacking that front. You know, I nobody 538 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: wants to watch that to me, and I think I 539 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: think I think it wasn't about scheme last week. I 540 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: think it was about the physicality of the of the Colts. Now, 541 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett will tell you that they had some bad 542 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: run fits. They'll tell you that they got you know, 543 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: they got beat up a little bit up front. The 544 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: coverage stuff we knew going in. I mean, we talked 545 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,479 Speaker 1: about this guy's I thought the whole show, A lot 546 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: of the shows in the breakdown the Colts was they'll 547 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: try to nickel and Dimei to death. You know, that's 548 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 1: and they got protection and they were able to hit 549 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 1: some routes and but I think it was more about 550 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: what the Colts were able to do up front than 551 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: it was more about the cowboys inability to scheme. I 552 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: haven't seen anybody this year man handle them like that. 553 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 1: So I'm going on, I'm going on, what fourteen games 554 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: of work here? Body of work. I think I'm okay 555 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: with this defense. Now. If something happens, I'm sure they'll 556 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: have to make some adjustments. But I don't see Tampa 557 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: coming into this game and doing to them what the 558 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: Colts did to them. I just don't. Jalen Smith talked 559 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: about playing the right way yeah, yesterday, and I think 560 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: they to me, I took it as they got out 561 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 1: of doing what they normally do. And a lot of 562 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: that's just being fundamentally sound. Some of it is the Colts. 563 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 1: Quinton Nelson's fun to play, Yeah, Clinton, Nelson, Kelly, those 564 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: guys are no fun to play. That's a team. It's 565 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: no fun to play, especially with that front. That front's 566 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: only gonna get better. That's a young front, you know, 567 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: so especially when they've got the lead on you. Oh yeah, 568 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: and they got a quarterback that sits there, and he doesn't, 569 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: you know, at the end of the day, he hands 570 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: his uniform back to the equipment. Man, I don't worry 571 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 1: about washing that one. You know, I'll wash that one. 572 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: I didn't get touched today, you know. So I think 573 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: it's more about them. The way that the way that 574 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: Tampa can hurt you is with the chunk plays. That's 575 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: what can hurt you. Yeah, And if you don't, if 576 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: you don't handle their ability to throw the ball down 577 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,479 Speaker 1: the field, then you're gonna have problems. Then you're then 578 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: you're Jument's gonna be like, Okay, what do you do 579 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: on the line? You play zone, you play man? Do 580 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: you do you deny them on the h do you 581 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: deny them on the line of scrimmage? Do you blitz guys? 582 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: You know? I think that's how hell that the Cowboys 583 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: blitz people last week and couldn't get home. I kind 584 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: of told you about what what happened to them in 585 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: that football all right, let me ask you a question 586 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: that I was asked by our former intern here with 587 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys Dallas Cowboys dot com. Casey Phillips, Ye, 588 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: that with Tampa Bay Bucks dot com. Okay, I was 589 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: on with them and we did a little crossfire, and 590 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: so she would posts some questions. Who's going to have 591 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: the better game on Sunday, the Tampa Bay defensive line 592 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: or the Dallas defensive line? Wow, because both teams are 593 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: a little compromise when it comes to blocking, you know, 594 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,479 Speaker 1: And I feel like that it's interesting when you hear 595 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: it from the Tampa Bay or or any opponent's perspective. 596 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: We focus so much on yeah our no, no, no, 597 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: absolutely absolutely, it's interesting here in their perspective on their players. Yeah, 598 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: they they they've got some they've got some issues. I 599 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: think a tackle, but you've got an issue at guard, 600 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: maybe left guard, maybe a little bit at center. You know, 601 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 1: it's been you know, compromised a little bit, maybe with 602 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: the left tackle. Right now, you're facing a guy, a 603 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 1: young guy with a lot of size and a lot 604 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 1: of quickness. Yeah, and he's finally coming around. I saw 605 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: where last week he had his I assume you're talking ya, Yes, 606 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 1: he had his career high nine tackles ye last week, right, So, um, yeah, 607 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: he's pretty tough, and you know he missed a lot 608 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 1: after tearing his calf muscle right in training camp. So 609 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: they have gotten better since since they've made the switch, though. 610 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: I mean the record isn't better, but the defense has 611 00:32:54,560 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 1: played better. Yeah, they've gotten more pressure, they've gotten more sacks. Know, 612 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 1: that's the thing I always worry about with the Cowboys. 613 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: Mickey's got me worried too, about us having a drive 614 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: of the football. You know. Okau's the answer to the question. 615 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure it out because I don't think Tampa. 616 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 1: I don't think Tampa. I think Tampa can make just 617 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: as many mistakes as you can. You know, I think 618 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: if you said player for player, you would, okay, Tyron 619 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: Smith for you know, Tyron Smith for Donovan Smith. Okay, 620 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Tyren Smith, Ali Marpett for the guard 621 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 1: for Suefilo. I think I'm gonna take Ali Marpett there. Okay. 622 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: Ryan Jensen hasn't lived up to where he was. He's 623 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: a ten million dollar year center. I don't think he's 624 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: lived up to that. But if you said, okay, who 625 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: gets paid more? Ryan Jensen gets paid more? Is he 626 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: playing better than Looney? Probably not? You know, maybe that's 627 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 1: a wash right there. You know, beck Knock I Ben 628 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: Knock Im Caleb Bennock. I don't know was a tackle 629 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: their guard? I mean he yeah, I mean he I 630 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: watched him. I don't I'm not overly impressed. And then 631 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 1: I told you about DeMar Dotson. Yep, with what he's done. 632 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 1: I think he's a slow footed guy. I think that 633 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: if you want, if people are excited about about maybe 634 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence getting some pressure, it will just be a 635 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: good opportunity right here. So maybe the question should be 636 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 1: which offensive line can play better? Yeah, which is capable 637 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: of playing? I see my answer yesterday was different than 638 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: what my answer would be today because yesterday I had 639 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 1: Zack Martin out because practiced yet, and I've got Zack 640 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: Martin in and so I would Yesterday my answer was, 641 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,879 Speaker 1: I think Tampa Bay will have their defensive line will 642 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 1: have more stats, more success in the game, just because 643 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: of the cowboy depleted that Cowtany's offensive line. But with 644 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 1: Zach Martin back, I feel a little bit better about that, 645 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: don't you. Yeah, it's which quarterback is going to play better? 646 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,959 Speaker 1: Which quarterback would you trust in this game? Da? Yeah? 647 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 1: Because I think this game could come down two turnovers 648 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 1: and which guy takes care of the ball better? And 649 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:08,800 Speaker 1: I know Dak has had some some turnovers, but I 650 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:10,799 Speaker 1: think over the course of his career, he's been better 651 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,439 Speaker 1: protecting the ball. And it may come down to who's 652 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 1: you know, who's not giving it away and Tampa Bay 653 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 1: has given it away all season long. Is Dallas capable? 654 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: Is Dallas capable of accepting turnovers? Are we accept Are we? Yes? 655 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:30,280 Speaker 1: We okay? You mean capable of ball skills? Making a play? 656 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 1: Are we are we? Are we capable of this? Or 657 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: we just holding our breath every time the balls tipped 658 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 1: in the air. And Byron Jones playing at a Pro 659 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 1: Bowl level this this year, making the Pro Bowl without 660 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 1: an interception. It's the first time since two thousand and 661 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: ten that a player has been voted into the Pro 662 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 1: Bowl without an intercept. It was that there were two 663 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 1: in two thousand and ten. Seriously, it was. I was 664 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: thinking it was forever. Yeah, I went back when I 665 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:56,880 Speaker 1: started looking, and then I got back, oh, two thousand 666 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: and ten. There it is. Now he's got a chance 667 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: if he gets a pick right the next two games. 668 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 1: You know who it is? Yes, there's two. One lived 669 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 1: on an island, vas yep. And the other one was 670 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 1: with the Raiders. Oh oh, Woodson Woodson, No, No, now, yeah, 671 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: same year they did neither one of them an interception 672 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: and made the Pro Bowl. Was freaking it never happened. 673 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,320 Speaker 1: I better never happened in Cowboy. He said, Okay, so 674 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make this easy and everybody, because everybody's trying 675 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 1: to come up with something to worry about, right, I mean, 676 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: that's fair. Here's my worry. That's what coaches do. And 677 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 1: and Rob's gonna help me with this. Oh, because it's 678 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: a basketball analogy. You know how you fall behind in 679 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 1: a basketball game by twenty points and then you have 680 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,840 Speaker 1: to rally, and then you work like the devil to 681 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 1: catch up, and you catch up and then you got 682 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: nothing to finish? Are you worried that three and five 683 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 1: and you had to work like the devil to get 684 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: to eight and five? And how do you have anything 685 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 1: left to get to the finish line? Don't be so logical, Niki. 686 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: Do you have the intensity, you have the will, the 687 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: physicalness to get to the finish line? Because it happens 688 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: in basket. We've seen it, especially in the NBA. Right questions, 689 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 1: I've seen that so many times covering those Mavericks game 690 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,239 Speaker 1: back in the eighties. It's like they work like heck 691 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: to get back in the game, and it's now, you 692 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: got it a one point game? Are you are? You 693 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: tie it? And it's like you climb the mountain and 694 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 1: you kind of take a breath and then the other 695 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 1: team of of a sudden it hits the pedal. Yeah, 696 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 1: send you right back where you came. Yep. That's if 697 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: I had to worry about something. Where did you come 698 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 1: up with this? I like last night it was like 699 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 1: they expended spending so much energy get where they where 700 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 1: they are? Yew, can you finish? Yeah? Now, if you 701 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 1: want on something to worry about, worry about that. But 702 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: don't they they don't have anything left in the tank. 703 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. But that's it's different than a basketball analogy 704 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 1: because is that's through the course of one game. This 705 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: is every week, I know, get a little break at 706 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: the same kind of but hey, win this one, like 707 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 1: we've been talking about, and you might get a chance 708 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 1: to get your breath. I know. So I'm with you. 709 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 1: But they've I think about the energy they've expended over 710 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:23,919 Speaker 1: these five wrong three two games on the road, three 711 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:29,320 Speaker 1: and twelve days, grind away for sixty minutes against the Saints, 712 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 1: and then the next week you got to go overtime 713 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 1: to win. That's a lot of energy he's got mentally strong. Yeah, 714 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 1: he's got to hope they got something left and that 715 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: last week wasn't an indication of I think they took 716 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 1: a deep breath last week. But I think they, especially 717 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 1: with the makeup of the roster and what we've talked 718 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 1: about the health of the roster relative health of it, 719 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: that they've got enough to get it back to. Going 720 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: to Nicky's point, but they're a young team, right, right, right, 721 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 1: And maybe they don't know better. Yeah, maybe in a 722 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,839 Speaker 1: it's more I think about I'm thinking, and Mickey's making 723 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 1: a damn good point there. They need to get the 724 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 1: shirts out, finish the fight. Yeah. And then and then 725 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,479 Speaker 1: I'm and then I'm thinking, well, maybe it's a young team. 726 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,879 Speaker 1: They're young. This is not a veteran team that's had 727 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 1: to battle back, you know what I'm saying that had 728 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 1: they they've It's not a it's not one of those 729 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: teams where it's a bunch of Jason Witten's and guys 730 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: like that. It's it's it's young guys. They're all in 731 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 1: their twenties, mostly early twenties. Maybe maybe that's your saving grace, Mickey. 732 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 1: Maybe that's as good as your point is. But maybe, 733 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't think about that way. But maybe 734 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: that's your saving grace is the fact it is such 735 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 1: a young team. But I think I think you're I 736 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,879 Speaker 1: think the problem you run into is your war out 737 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 1: in a couple of positions where you don't need to 738 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: be war out, mainly that running back. There is a 739 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: season in Cowboys history, a couple of seasons in Cowboys 740 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:02,280 Speaker 1: history that kind of plays to your point. In ninety two, okay, 741 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 1: they stubbed their toe against Washington in Week fifteen and 742 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 1: then came back and finished strong. Okay. In ninety three, 743 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: of course, they dug a hole to start the season 744 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 1: with the Emmett holdout, and he wasn't there the first 745 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 1: two games, so they started ohing two and they rattled 746 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 1: off seven straight wins, and then they had stubbed two 747 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: to two toes, including the leon let on Thanksgiving Day, 748 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,799 Speaker 1: and they were even though they battled all the way back, 749 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 1: they were strong enough mentally to close that season strong. 750 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: Course that was a great team too, Yeah, no, you know, yeah, 751 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 1: young team though, wasn't it ninety four still. Yeah, yeah, 752 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: ninety four though they had the coaching change and they 753 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 1: reeled off. I mean they were but ten and two 754 00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 1: at one point and then lost two of their last 755 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,839 Speaker 1: three and you know what happened sure after that. Yeah, 756 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 1: they had fourth and one in Philly in December, and 757 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,760 Speaker 1: then they were able to salvage get in the top seed, 758 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 1: and we're able to have enough gumption about them to 759 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 1: make the total run to survive the Super Bowl. Survive. 760 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,359 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what though, that's I like what Mickey's saying, 761 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 1: but I just feel kind of feel like that. I 762 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: feel like it's a young team that we're getting ready 763 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,239 Speaker 1: to find it. Yeah, if if, if they get into 764 00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:33,279 Speaker 1: this game, this is this would be my biggest fear. 765 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,360 Speaker 1: And I'll take it a step further if they lose. 766 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:41,400 Speaker 1: If they lose, now, I'm really worried about a young team. Now, 767 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 1: I'm really worried about a young team going to New 768 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 1: York and win in a game. That's where I would 769 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: That's where I would say, Okay, I'm trying. I see 770 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,320 Speaker 1: Mickey's point. Now I'm gonna take it a step further, 771 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:53,359 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna put it. I'm 772 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 1: gonna tie it to the young team. I think, you know, yeah, 773 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 1: that's fair. They also could they don't they don't have 774 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: the energy and they don't have the experience. Well, they 775 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: also could still back into this thing. But yeah, but 776 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 1: I hear you, moving forward even if they backing in 777 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: doesn't bode well, no, I know, moving forward, No, right, 778 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think if they back in, nobody's 779 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: gonna favor them against Seattle or anything. Right, And if 780 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 1: they if they back in, then what tests the championship 781 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: medal of this team is how they do in the postseason. 782 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 1: Right now we're testing it, and but they still need 783 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: to do in the postseason. But first things first, they 784 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 1: need to take care of business on Sunday.

I think 959 00:51:57,560 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 1: there's a chance they don't have to. We'll see what 960 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,879 Speaker 1: happens because Washington and Filler are both playing good teams. 961 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 1: We'll see what they do. But I just think this defense, 962 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,279 Speaker 1: more than anything, gets back to doing what they do. 963 00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,279 Speaker 1: I think it's DeMarcus Lawrence kind of a game where 964 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,800 Speaker 1: he's going to impact the game defensively and kind of 965 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,920 Speaker 1: lift up the other guys around him, and they win 966 00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 1: their style of game, something like twenty four seventeen Cowboys 967 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 1: and the guy I'm looking at pick a click is 968 00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 1: in the secondary. Jeff Heath has eight career interceptions and 969 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:31,560 Speaker 1: three against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a couple of 970 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: different games. He always seems to come up big against 971 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 1: those pirates. Erry did research. Yeah, yeah, and yeah. He 972 00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 1: has multiple interception games on his ledger. In his career. 973 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,359 Speaker 1: He's just so you're going to a two pick game? Maybe, yeah, 974 00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 1: why not? Why not? Why not? Cowboys win the East? Eric, 975 00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:54,439 Speaker 1: get your hat, get get your hat ready. Cowboys twenty seven, 976 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay twenty Oh, Mickey another seven point after a 977 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 1: show it out, it's your pick. My pick is gonna 978 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 1: be one. Ezekiel Elliott like it. I mean yards he'll 979 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:18,760 Speaker 1: have combined two hundred yards two hundred from scrimmage. Okay. 980 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:23,600 Speaker 1: Bill Jones is the now newly crowned gut feeling champion 981 00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:29,400 Speaker 1: picking games for Dallas Cowboys dot com because why you 982 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,839 Speaker 1: still two games left? But if I pick something, you're 983 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,479 Speaker 1: just gonna pick the same. Right, You're you're not gonna 984 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 1: win this championship, Robert, You're not gonna win this championship 985 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:42,239 Speaker 1: on my watch. It's our staff predictions, staff predictions. Give 986 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,680 Speaker 1: me the Cowboys in this one, twenty six to twenty. 987 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna say this is gonna be a big 988 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:50,800 Speaker 1: one for your quarterback. This quarterback, this team has. The 989 00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 1: Buccaneers have a good rush, but I think there's some 990 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:56,200 Speaker 1: plays to be made. I always say this when you 991 00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:58,319 Speaker 1: watch sometimes a second this team will play some zone 992 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:01,360 Speaker 1: coverage against you if they get in some zone coverage, 993 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:03,360 Speaker 1: they get some too deep coverage. Dack's gonna have to 994 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 1: take advantage of that. Give me the quarterback in this 995 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:08,719 Speaker 1: game and not calling it like a game like Philadelphia 996 00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 1: where he's throwing you know, fifty some odd passes. I 997 00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:15,360 Speaker 1: think he's gonna be efficient. I think he's gonna be accurate, 998 00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:17,560 Speaker 1: and I think that he's gonna the difference will be 999 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:19,440 Speaker 1: a couple of touchdowns. I do. I have the Cowboys 1000 00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:22,560 Speaker 1: winning this one, Mickey, twenty six to twenty. About that, 1001 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:24,759 Speaker 1: I went one point off yours. I'm gonna give you, 1002 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:26,520 Speaker 1: but I wrote it down. I wrote it down earlier. 1003 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:29,759 Speaker 1: But that's yeah, twenty six twenty Cowboys, get your hat, 1004 00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:32,719 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, enjoy it, and then let's figure out how 1005 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 1: to get things rested up for the playoffs. I'm gonna 1006 00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:39,320 Speaker 1: give Dak sixty yards rushing. Oh oh, da'sna but he 1007 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:44,360 Speaker 1: got Bill Jones all right. I recall a Cowboy Buccaneer 1008 00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:49,040 Speaker 1: playoff game in nineteen eighty two. Okay, you're gonna have 1009 00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:53,360 Speaker 1: Doug Williams playing quarterback, and that nineteen eighty one season, 1010 00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 1: those Orange eighteen eighty one season, it was January second, 1011 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:02,680 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty two, and the Cowboy always the Bucks stopped here. Shutout, 1012 00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 1: wasn't it? It was a shutout? Yeah, it was thirty 1013 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:10,400 Speaker 1: eight to nothing. And I'm going with a duplication of 1014 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 1: that game, the Cowboys thirty eight to nothing over the 1015 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:20,080 Speaker 1: years Byron Jones, Pro Bowl cornerback Byron Jones gets not 1016 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:24,960 Speaker 1: one but two interceptions of Jamis Winston. He's gonna shut 1017 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:27,879 Speaker 1: down Mike Evans. He's gonna win some jump He's gonna 1018 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 1: win at least one jump ball. So Bill's just taking 1019 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:32,920 Speaker 1: that snow globe and just turning it upside down. Everything 1020 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:37,880 Speaker 1: that's been going wrong or different. Yea, all problems fixed. 1021 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:40,880 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna go download that play by play, so 1022 00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:43,359 Speaker 1: I have to refer to when the game's over. There 1023 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:45,200 Speaker 1: you go. There it is. I just as I was 1024 00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:47,719 Speaker 1: sitting here, I had actually thirty eight to ten, and 1025 00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:50,279 Speaker 1: then I thought, no, wait a second, they you seek 1026 00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:53,520 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay way back when I think it was a shutout, 1027 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 1: and so I just picked it up. Thirty eight to nothing. 1028 00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:59,440 Speaker 1: That the first round game. That was a divisional playoff game, 1029 00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:03,279 Speaker 1: yeen eighty one. And then the next week they went 1030 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:07,560 Speaker 1: to San Franciscisco. Yeah, yes, yeah, but no one remembers 1031 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:11,000 Speaker 1: that thirty eight. I was some reason they remember what 1032 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 1: happened the following week. I did remember at ten six 1033 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,600 Speaker 1: Buccaneer win it at the at the their place. That 1034 00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 1: when fifteen.

Well, what was that? 1038 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,640 Speaker 1: They had a weird score.

Then they have a 1042 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 1: weird score and it was it two thousand and one 1043 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:45,840 Speaker 1: or two thousand and two with Quincy Carter at quarterback 1044 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,600 Speaker 1: and they got beat like ten to six.
