Oh yeah, yeah, I mean we're effective 0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:35.200 definitely tomorrow as far as full oh yeah, full bone talking. 0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:38.480 Me feeling better, it's because twenty four hours has passed. 0:01:38.840 --> 0:01:41.880 I'm starting to emotionally get onto the nick. How's your foot? 0:01:42.319 --> 0:01:45.480 Uh yeah, I'm still in limp mode. Still there. I'm 0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:47.760 still in limp mode and will be for a few days. 0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:50.520 Is it sore today? Yesterday was more pain and to 0:01:50.680 --> 0:01:54.920 dating sore bruised? Yeah yeah, but you know, I'm not 0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:57.600 going on nine our fellas. I'm not know. Every time 0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.280 you talk about the foot, I always think it's guy 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:09.400 going on that we played the stairs. Somebody had had 0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:12.200 another gool yesterday. He tweeted me after the show and 0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:14.160 they were like, it reminded them of that scene in 0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:17.600 the Quiet Place. Oh yeah, on the stairs when she 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:19.160 was going down the stairs. I was like, you know what, 0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:24.920 it was pretty similar, only she couldn't scream. I May. 0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:29.239 That's what I was just about to was the pitch 0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:34.519 so so news and so news. Enough, he just went 0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:38.720 right past. It wasn't like cur It wasn't. It wasn't. 0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:42.440 It wasn't. It wasn't blood curling. But there were plenty 0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:47.880 of expertits was it? Uh? I would say it was Marvesha, 0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:51.120 It's Mark. I mean, first of all, it takes that. 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:53.519 It takes anyone who has stepped on anything shop like 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:55.120 that with a puncture wound. You know, it takes like 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:59.200 a split second for the register in your brain, and 0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:02.079 then when it had registers, you're like, you know, you 0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:04.519 lose it. So like the first like two seconds was 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:07.079 just a void in your voice, like it has left 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:09.560 you and it came in. Yeah, like you lose your 0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:14.520 air force. Second. Yeah, that was That was pretty accurate. 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:17.400 Sorry for everybody listening that has headphones on and it's 0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.680 only listening to the audio. I didn't know your voice 0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:22.959 could get that high, Isaiah. That was pretty impressive of 0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:26.440 my offering. You know, when I was younger, I used 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:29.160 to want to do voiceovers. I still really voiceover. Yeah 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:31.800 what's your name? From Police Academy inspire me? Oh yeah, 0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:34.639 so I always copy everything that he did. Think of 0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:37.600 his name the impressionist. Ye, yeah, yeah, I know what 0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:41.280 you're talking about. Class Isaiah is actually singing the national 0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:47.760 anthem at the game on Sunday. I don't Maybe, all right, 0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:50.440 let's do some news and notes Cowboys, of course, like 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:52.960 you said, off today, and then they will take a 0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:56.600 look ahead to the the Philadelphia Eagles. Let's start with 0:03:56.720 --> 0:03:59.160 Cowboys news, because we've got some Eagles news I want 0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:02.440 to hit as well. There's a big Eagles bomb that 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:07.360 came down yesterday. Let's start with the Cowboys. Though, well 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:10.360 that that sound impression needs something like that, some refinement. 0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:17.040 I'll be Michael Winslows by the way. Okay, so we're 0:04:17.080 --> 0:04:21.400 gonna what would Rob do news and notes? First of all, 0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:24.239 we're not going to discuss it, but it's a news item, 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:26.200 so we're gonna mention it and we'll move past it. 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:28.200 Jerry Jones spoke to one or five point three IF 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:29.880 from the fan this morning. One of the questions he 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:34.400 was eventually asked, obviously, is about OBJ quick and quick out. 0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:38.360 He basically, the optimism sounds like it's leaving the room. 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:40.960 The air is no longer in the sales, you know, 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:42.599 if you go back and listen to it, Jerry Jones 0:04:42.680 --> 0:04:46.520 basically said that every day that passes makes it less 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:49.320 likely that it that it happens. Obviously, that's a complete 0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:52.039 one eighty degree turned from last week when he said 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:54.320 stay tuned, this thing could break any moment. So there 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:57.160 you go. The air is leaving the sales on the 0:04:57.240 --> 0:05:00.880 OBJ boat. We'll see if it happens, but looking less 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:03.240 and less likely as the days go on. Moving right 0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:08.120 past that late In Vanderesh yesterday that we were wishing 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:10.760 the best for Lvee. We sent our prayers and positive 0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:13.280 energy to him and it worked. Ladies and gentlemen, thank 0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:16.080 you for that worst case scenario has been avoided. It 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:18.960 is actually not a Nick injury on late In Vanderesh. 0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:22.320 It is a pinched nerve in his shoulder, i e. 0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:24.040 Shoulder sting or whatever you want to call it, but 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:27.880 it's a shoulder issue. He is expected to return, likely 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:30.720 before the postseason. Obviously that would you know what will 0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:33.239 determine that is can the Cowboys went against the Eagles 0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:35.800 and put themselves in position for the game against the 0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:39.040 Titans and the Commanders to matter. But great news, Lvee. 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:42.040 He's gonna miss this week against the Eagles on a 0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:45.679 short week, but he shouldn't be back this regular season, 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:50.200 but most certainly for the postseason. That is absolutely huge. 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.720 The fact that and dan Quinn even talked about it yesterday. 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:56.000 He is imperative to this defense. Facts, there's a lot 0:05:56.040 --> 0:05:58.040 of things that are built around what Lvee could do 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.200 at the second level. And Isaiah, I know you've seen 0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:02.960 it on the film too. I mean having him back 0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:05.400 in the fold is going to help this team tremendously. 0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:07.880 But I mean it is gonna be a couple of 0:06:07.880 --> 0:06:10.320 weeks You're gonna see a lot of Anthony bard Bone Clark. 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:12.960 Would you classify l v as the most underrated defensive 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:15.760 player in his team? Absolutely, not even not even a question. 0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:19.520 Because Dorn's Armstrong is finally getting his flowers, He's finally 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:22.800 getting the the attention that he deserves. Eight sacks. You're 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:24.480 gonna get that in a check. I don't think l 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:28.440 Vee gets that. Yeah, people, people try to find reasons 0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:32.680 still to devalue Lvgre in the face of obvious evidence 0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:35.560 to the contrary. Those people don't watch the film. I'm 0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:37.160 gonna I'm gonna say it right now. If you're not. 0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:39.640 If you're hating on LVE this year, you're not watching 0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:42.520 the Pelt either you're I'm not watching the film and 0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:47.000 or you're seeing it and you're just still don't like. Nope, 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:48.839 I don't want to eat my vegetables. Nope, I don't 0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:50.600 want to I don't like the peas and carrots. Nope, 0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:54.520 the Isaiah and the offensive line conversation. Eat these pieces 0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:57.600 and carrots. But yeah, so how big is he though? 0:06:57.680 --> 0:06:59.560 To that second level though, he's huge. I mean, he's 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:01.600 the one guy that you asked to come downhill and 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.000 he's a guy that we knew would have a solid 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:06.320 season simply because of all the changes that they made 0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:08.680 on the on the defensive front. They needed to do 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:10.200 it for his health. They needed to do it to 0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:13.160 obviously stop the run. I'm still working that out. But 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:17.320 they're giving him an opportunity now to free flow and 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:20.080 play without always having to deal with a three hundred 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:23.560 pound man grabbing at his chest. So that's why he's 0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:25.680 been productive this year. He's taking full advantage of the 0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:27.840 opportunity that's presented to him on his one year deal. 0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:30.640 They showed him that you got to prove it to 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:32.280 me and he's been doing it just that, you know, 0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:36.880 and and to this conversation and will breeze over after 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:41.040 this to the Philly to the blockbuster Philly News. Now 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:45.080 the question becomes, is Jabril Cox in fact? Ready, ladies 0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:50.680 and gentlemen, the question has been asked weekly, weekly, weekly, weekly, 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:54.200 particularly and my Twitter mentions which leads to insect facts. 0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:58.080 If you know me, why Jabril Cox inactive? What's going on? 0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:02.040 Why does it lead the insects insect fact facts? Sorry? That? 0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:06.640 Because why when I have repeated myself continually about a 0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:09.280 particular topic, regardless of what the topic is, I just 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:11.520 turned to insect facts and start educating the masses on 0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:14.280 whatever random insect fact I want. We could talk about 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:17.720 butterflies and wings and dragonflies and you know how much 0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:19.640 an ant can lift? Yeah, I mean you might as 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:22.720 well get educational with it, right, So yeah, those who 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:25.960 are listening and follow me on Twitter and start set 0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:32.080 the insect facts situation. Sobrial cox um Michae McCarthy said, one, 0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:35.199 what is the strongest insect? An army? End? Yeah? I 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:36.640 was about to say it's an ant? And you try 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:40.760 those search sciences what I do? Okay, Like Michael Parsons 0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:44.680 does national geograph. Yeah. Um. Mike McCarthy said on yesterday 0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:48.240 that Brill Cox is quote unquote ready um. With the 0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:52.160 Cowboys having recently released a wave Malik Jefferson from the 0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:54.520 practice squad to make room for Anthony Rush in the 0:08:54.559 --> 0:08:58.280 wake of Jonathan Hankin's injury for nose tackle depth, they'd 0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:02.440 have now no linebackers on their practice squad, so they 0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:05.240 have two on the active roster as far as backups 0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:07.440 are concerned, because you're top three now you got Micah 0:09:07.840 --> 0:09:12.280 Damon Clark and Anthony Barr behind them, it's Luke Gifford 0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:14.520 and it's Jabril Cox. That's who you got. And we 0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:17.079 both know Luke Gifford is a special team's ace. That 0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:19.439 being said, we don't know how much they're gonna be 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:22.040 willing to risk him in the defense of capacity, but 0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:24.000 I don't think they really have a choice. If Luke 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:28.439 Gifford best Jabril Cox this week for those reps, that's 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:30.080 so I think you should give it to And if 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:33.199 Jabril Cox best Luke Gifford, And though you know this 0:09:33.320 --> 0:09:35.439 practice these practices this week, then you give it to 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:38.839 Jabril Cox. But however you slice it looks like Jabril 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:42.400 Cox is up. Is it possible he's just not moving 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:45.400 the same way they anticipated when he was coming back 0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:47.160 from his injury. I know it's been a long time 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:50.000 since he technically returned. It was training camp when he 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:52.600 was back into the fold, but he was known as 0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:56.760 a coverage lineback. Yes, he's somebody who changes direction in 0:09:56.960 --> 0:10:01.640 order to play at least to his strength. So if 0:10:01.720 --> 0:10:04.640 he's unable to change direction, maybe he's not as good 0:10:04.920 --> 0:10:07.600 coverage wise. Is that a possibility. I know it's it's 0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:10.920 a long way out, but maybe the injuries affecting him 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:12.360 to this point in the year, or is he just 0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:15.960 not good enough to make the roster? Tell me now 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:19.120 I'm asking. We're talking about jabro Cox. Is a Cox yet? Yeah? 0:10:19.440 --> 0:10:22.360 The injury affected him, Okay, no doubt about it, and 0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:25.120 it's unfortunate he had, But he had an a cl 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:29.880 in an ACO. Typically for most individuals, most humans, affects 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:33.120 your ability to be as agile as you once were. Um, 0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:37.200 there are certain individuals who were created and not born 0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:40.079 that come back from acls and they're just as productive 0:10:40.080 --> 0:10:43.040 as they were before the injury, but typically you lose 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:45.319 a little something with it. I would feel like with 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:48.600 each injury, you lose a little something physically and mentally. 0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:53.880 And what we've seen so far is it's affected him 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:59.000 tremendously and it's it's I think it has put a 0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:02.520 huge burden and wait over in a cloud over his 0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:06.760 confidence on the defensive side of the ball. Being confident 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:09.240 in your role on special teams being confident in your 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:13.360 role on defense are two separate entities, two completely separate entities. 0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:16.719 And I'm not sure from what I've seen that he 0:11:16.880 --> 0:11:19.640 has that confidence back yet defensively. And the only way 0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:23.240 you get that confidence back with reps by playing, get 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:25.120 out there and start hit it. And he's going to 0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:27.760 be tasked with doing that on this coming Saturday against 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:30.839 a very good Philadelphia Eagles team, regardless of who the 0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:34.920 quarterback is, regardless which is there, Wait, what are you 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:38.319 talking about? Regardless Jalen Hurts is the quarterback, past Walker, 0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:43.280 I mean, he's all right, he's an MVP. Conversation With 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:46.839 that being said, Jalen Hurts reportedly suffered a shoulder strain 0:11:47.040 --> 0:11:49.360 in the Eagles victory over the Chicago Bears in the 0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:54.319 third quarter. Did play through that um and yeah, well, 0:11:54.360 --> 0:12:00.360 throwing shoulder. Actually it's conflicting reports because some reports say 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:03.080 that it's the throwing shoulder, but then there's one particular 0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:08.160 report of Jeff McClain, Philadelphia, inquired word inquired. He's right there, 0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:10.040 boots on the ground, and he says it's his left 0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:15.720 non throwing shoulder. Yeah, he landed on it looked like right. 0:12:15.880 --> 0:12:19.000 So I'm no trainer, but I got eyes. But I 0:12:19.120 --> 0:12:21.839 have eyes. I've had my share of injuries together. That 0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:25.000 looked like an AC joint spring old. Isaiah's about it, 0:12:25.320 --> 0:12:32.280 educated on injuries and yeah, so for those that don't know, 0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:35.760 it's a little bone right hill, Yeah right, And when 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:40.120 you get driven into the ground, it's literally literally something. 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:42.400 Depending on how severe it is, can look like Looney 0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:46.560 Tunes where it's like and it raises up. You guys, 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:49.840 You guys remember Anthony Fassano, of course, yes, And they 0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:53.800 Vossanos separated his his ac joint and kept playing peace. 0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:56.160 Never seen nothing like it. I remember Jim and those 0:12:56.200 --> 0:13:00.760 guys making taking dipads and molding them to his shoulder. 0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:02.760 He was out there looking like thriller like this, right, 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:05.400 And I'm here my last game for the Dallas Cowputs 0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:08.480 before I got released and went to to New England. 0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:11.040 I had an acy joint spring and that joint is 0:13:11.240 --> 0:13:14.640 tender rony at somebody tries to reach out and say 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:16.400 what's up, and you're like, don't, don't, don't, don't touch it, 0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:18.520 don't get out. If I'm not mistaken, I believe it 0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:22.160 was twenty twenty. Dak Prescott dealt with that that injury. Uh, 0:13:22.760 --> 0:13:24.360 you're talking about the brain shoulder that he had to 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:26.760 fight through the month of December. I believe it was 0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:28.520 a couple. It wasn't twenty twenty. It would have been 0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:31.480 twenty nineteen. OK, sounds because twenty twenty was heard sound. 0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:34.360 When you're throwing either shoulder, it sucks because if it's 0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:37.280 it's non throwing shoulder, you still have to pull with 0:13:37.440 --> 0:13:39.640 that army. If it is a throwing shoulder, then that 0:13:39.679 --> 0:13:41.559 boy's gonna be on something. If he does play, he's 0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:43.840 gonna be on some magic. Right now, the Philly passing 0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:46.640 to decide it if he's going, oh yeah, the magic 0:13:47.080 --> 0:13:50.679 check haven't Philly, haven't. Philly has not decided as of 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:53.559 yet if Jalen Hurts will be on the field. Obviously, 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:56.480 they just need to win one more than they clinch 0:13:56.760 --> 0:14:00.240 both The NFC and the NFC East. If they leave 0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:02.880 Gardner Minshew can walk into AT and T Stadium and 0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:05.400 get it done, then they will likely put him on 0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:07.640 the field. Mike McCarthy said that the Cowboys are preparing 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:09.880 for both quarterbacks. And it's not as if the Cowboys 0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:12.880 have not seen Gardner Menshoe. They played against him in 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:16.439 January of this very calendar year in the final game 0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:18.959 of the twenty twenty one season, and here was his 0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:21.400 stat line nineteen. Well, first of all, it was the 0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:25.080 fifty one point explosion yet against Philadelphia fifty one twenty 0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:27.360 six with the final, but it was Gardner Minshue went 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:31.040 nineteen for thirty three, only one hundred eighty six passing yards. 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:34.000 He did have two passing touchdowns, but he had an interception. 0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:37.400 He was sacked three times, rating was eighty one point one. 0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:40.200 He took off and ran with the ball five times, 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:42.640 but average only two yards per carry for a total 0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:45.440 of ten combined yards and no rushing touchdowns. And this 0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:48.320 was without Michael Parsons and Trevon Diggs on the field. 0:14:48.720 --> 0:14:51.720 So yes, different weaponry for the Eagles with A. J. 0:14:51.840 --> 0:14:54.960 Brown and Devantae Smith. That is absolutely accurate. But again 0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:57.840 Michael Parsons Trevon Diggs weren't on the field when this 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:00.560 stat line occurred. So I'll call at a wash for 0:15:00.600 --> 0:15:02.760 the most part and say that this is the film 0:15:02.800 --> 0:15:05.880 the Cowboys are pulling from to get Garda manshoes tendencies. 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:09.880 And you know it's not it's not an unfamiliarly said 0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:12.120 I'm common upon it, but he's not unfamilve. I've always 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:14.000 liked him as a backup quarterback. Yeah, I mean he 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:16.960 you know what I said yesterday someone used the wrong 0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:20.640 adjective for that guy. They said he was formidable. False. 0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:24.080 He is serviceable. Yeah, that's why he's eight and fourteen 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:26.080 as a starter. That's why he got put back in 0:15:26.240 --> 0:15:30.080 in Jacksonville but then got benched immediately, etcetera, etcetera. He's serviceable. 0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:33.000 He can win games at the NFL level. Jalen Hurts 0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:38.800 is formidable. That's formidable. Patrick Mahomes formidable, Josh Allen formidable. 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:42.080 Let's let's be careful with how we you know, right, 0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:45.400 so throw throw words out there. Yeah, gardamnshoe. He can 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:49.720 step in and win a game if you underestimate him. 0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:53.920 But if you estimate him correctly, then you can repeat 0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:55.520 the stat line of Isaiah has been a big fan 0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:59.280 ahead since he was at Washington State Stand Washington Stable. Yeah, 0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:02.400 I think it was wise. That's a player though, I 0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:04.200 do I always have. I think I like his fight, 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:06.560 like I kind of wanted him. It sounds like you 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:08.960 want to get some credits from Wazoo. I like that 0:16:09.800 --> 0:16:13.280 about this is about it. Any complimences Wazoo player, whatever, credit. 0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:16.320 I think he's a competitor. I mean, you're not. You're 0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:18.640 not putting him you you don't want to depend on 0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:21.720 him for multiple games. But in terms of playing filling 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:24.560 in from a game, he's very service that regard, and 0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:26.520 he's a he's a little lightning bowl. He is. But 0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:29.280 it also if he is the starter, it's going to 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:33.120 wildly change how Syrianty has to call this game. Now. 0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:37.120 The best run rushing attack in the NFL becomes not 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:39.800 so much. Now they will still be able to get 0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:42.720 at you and run the ball um, but more traditional. Yeah, 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:45.280 I Jalen Hurts on the ground versus Garden Minshew on 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:47.720 the ground. That's not a conversation, that's not a comparison. 0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:51.080 So it would work in favor of the Cowboys, and 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:53.280 that it would be more of a drop back and 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:55.800 throw game for Menshoe than it would be for Jalen Hurts. 0:16:55.840 --> 0:16:57.560 So it does change how they would have to prepare it. 0:16:57.640 --> 0:16:59.760 But like I said, Mike says that they're working on 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:02.920 and I mean he's been around that system for two 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.879 years now because he was the second year with Philly. 0:17:06.040 --> 0:17:08.080 So with that being said, he knows the playbook. It's 0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:11.359 not like the playbook shrinks any with him in the fold. 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.440 It may shrink a little bit just to Tad because 0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:16.960 he hasn't run certain plays, but in terms of the 0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:20.720 knowledge Gardner Minshoe's ready to go. So it's a big 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:23.280 news story. I don't think it's as big this week 0:17:23.359 --> 0:17:25.920 as it would have been last week. They put it 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:28.760 this way, if Dallas wins against Jacksonville, this might be 0:17:28.840 --> 0:17:31.480 the biggest story of the year outside of the Cowboys building, 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:37.159 because not only would it be prior to this matchup, however, 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:40.760 it would be with three weeks or left in the season. 0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:43.160 You're only down by one game as opposed to three games, 0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:47.040 and so the length of the injury could really hurt 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:50.760 some people think hurt Philadelphia, right, and that I'm glad 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:53.000 you said that. The last point because that's what also 0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:56.119 comes into play. It's it's bigger than just will Jalen 0:17:56.160 --> 0:17:58.840 Hurts be available versus the Cowboys. There are reports that 0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:01.840 he could miss the remainder of the regular season. Now 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:05.640 obviously that's risk versus reward for the Eagles, trying to determine. Okay, well, 0:18:05.760 --> 0:18:09.880 if we the Eagles lose against the Cowboys, how confident 0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:11.960 are we that we're not going to lose out if 0:18:12.119 --> 0:18:16.840 we choose to sit Hurts for protectionary reasons until the postseason. 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:18.159 So they got a lot of decisions to make. But 0:18:18.200 --> 0:18:19.720 for the Cowboys, you need to win this game. You 0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:23.200 and that not under any circumstances allow Gardner minshoot the 0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:26.119 Eagles period, even if it's jayaln Hurts, but particularly if 0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:28.919 it's Gardener minshoot a backup quarterback come in and clinched 0:18:28.960 --> 0:18:32.159 the conference and the division on your turf. Nope, Nope, 0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:35.400 not going to happen. New Orleans, New Orleans and New 0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:39.840 York the Giants or the two that Philly has after Dallas. 0:18:40.119 --> 0:18:44.080 So those are two you talk about serviceable, two serviceable teams. 0:18:44.119 --> 0:18:45.880 I mean, the Giants are probably one of the playoffs. 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:48.680 The Saints are fighting to get into a playoffs spot. 0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:51.800 So if Jalen Hurts is not available for the final 0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:54.280 two weeks of the regular season as well as against 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:57.440 the Cowboys on Sunday, once again, that's not final. It's 0:18:57.520 --> 0:19:00.440 just expected that you're expected to see Gardner Minshew on 0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:04.480 Saturday rather if he's not able to go for the 0:19:04.840 --> 0:19:08.240 remainder of the regular season. That's a significant storyline, But 0:19:08.359 --> 0:19:10.800 it also feels like a missed opportunity because of what 0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:13.760 happened yesterday, what happened on Sunday. Of course it does, 0:19:14.080 --> 0:19:16.240 but it also sets and you're not but but and 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:18.199 it also sets the stage for what could be an 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:21.440 explosive into the regular season because if the Cowboys defeat 0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:23.840 the Eagles go on into Nashville and defeat the Titans, 0:19:24.520 --> 0:19:27.080 and let's say, Garden Minshew is the start of this 0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:29.840 weekend next week and the Eagles lose drop these two. 0:19:30.359 --> 0:19:33.480 Oh we're talking about week eighteen. It's coming down to 0:19:33.640 --> 0:19:36.879 all the marbles, yea, all the marbles. So yeah, an 0:19:36.960 --> 0:19:41.200 interesting turn of events here in the NFC and NFC East. 0:19:41.440 --> 0:19:43.399 All right, let's take our first break when we come back. 0:19:43.440 --> 0:19:47.080 We're taking your calls talking Tuesday eight eight five five 0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:49.719 two two nine seven. We'll talk to Cowboys Nation when 0:19:49.760 --> 0:19:54.800 we come back. When you build, you start with the foundation, 0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:58.080 and home ownership is a foundation of a stable future. 0:19:58.440 --> 0:20:01.600 The Bank of America Community Ownership commitment has helped over 0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:04.200 thirty four thousand people lay the ground work so far 0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:06.239 with up to ten thousand dollars. So it's your down 0:20:06.320 --> 0:20:09.120 payment or three percent of the purchase price, whichever is less. 0:20:09.240 --> 0:20:12.560 The satisfaction of owning your own place can become a reality. 0:20:12.880 --> 0:20:15.560 Visit Bank of America dot com slash homeowner to learn more. 0:20:15.760 --> 0:20:17.560 What would you like the power to do? Bank of 0:20:17.600 --> 0:20:19.720 America an a equal housing lender, credit and collateral as 0:20:19.800 --> 0:20:21.480 if up to approval restrictions apply. This is not a 0:20:21.520 --> 0:20:24.680 commitment to lend this sweet. Did you get to work 0:20:24.760 --> 0:20:27.480 on time? Yeah? But I just realized it's Sunday. Little 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:30.760 sweets his head on home. Doctor Pepper's on its way. 0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:37.280 Maybe there's nothing better. I bet you've probably done something. 0:20:39.640 --> 0:20:44.159 You investtionistic in NFT and I don't even know what 0:20:44.240 --> 0:20:52.480 that is. It's a non functable token something at Todd 0:20:52.520 --> 0:20:54.280 thought it would be secure to jog in the cheetah. 0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:57.320 Savannah Todd believed the Big Cat repellent he bought online 0:20:57.480 --> 0:21:00.200 was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be faster 0:21:00.400 --> 0:21:02.600 than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hop. 0:21:03.200 --> 0:21:04.879 But the good news is Todd has at and T 0:21:05.000 --> 0:21:07.680 five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he 0:21:07.840 --> 0:21:09.840 learned the best thing to do is stop running and 0:21:10.160 --> 0:21:12.639 toss her the backpack with the beef stew at and 0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:16.720 T five G. Fast, reliable, secure, It's not complicated. Five 0:21:16.760 --> 0:21:18.720 G requires compatible plan and device. Five G may not 0:21:18.720 --> 0:21:20.640
