I don't think I would 25 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: ever say it's such a thing. How is Squattober going? 26 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: Squattober is going well. I actually had to take a 27 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: day off because I have I'm actually proud of myself 28 00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: because I have back issues after football. I have two 29 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: baden disk in my back. So for the longest I 30 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: stayed away from squats. So I've worked my way into 31 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: Squattober and I'm gradually raising my my my weight up 32 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: and adjust my percentages. So I took yesterday off because 33 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: I had a heavy day on Tuesday. But uh, I'm 34 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: ready to get back at it today. Okay, it's lity lit. 35 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: What do you been? I mean, what do you what 36 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: do you squat? What's your max? Right? In max? And 37 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: if I had to guess, probably four hundred were a 38 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: lot less than a lot of these players nowadays. It's 39 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: so you think about I mean you think about the 40 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: I mean, who do we just face? Last week? Jalen 41 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: hurts six hundred, So four hundred pounds for him is 42 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: like his warm up weight, you know. So I mean 43 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: you got specimens in the league like that, now that 44 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: just play around with the weight that I would strain 45 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: and probably I'm not gonna say that. Yeah, you've got 46 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: specimens of Patrick and who I mean, what do we 47 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: squat like fifty? I haven't squatted since college, so I 48 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: couldn't tell. Yeah, it's fair. I haven't maxed out since 49 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:57,239 Speaker 1: probably I still got my trek legs though, so juice, Yeah, yeah, 50 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: I wonder. So I think this weekend I'll get to go. 51 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to borrow somebody. Oh god, a wheelchair 52 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: whenever he gets in here to borrow somebody's built. But 53 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: no belt, No belts allowed, sir, No, you want me 54 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: to Wearing a belt is like wearing gloves in the 55 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: weight room. Gonna need the belt, I'm telling you. For 56 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: the first one back in two decades. I can't get 57 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: an activate the core. I could just imagine like a 58 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: cartoon character. He got like a cartoon character and it 59 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: just snaps. So that's what's gonna happen. So good, all right, 60 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: So normally we do news and notes with Rob Phillips. 61 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: But like we said, we miss our guy Rob. We 62 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: know he's watching. He did promises yesterday that he's gonna 63 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: watch every show, so we will refer to him as 64 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: Rob the listener from here on out. He could always 65 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: call in and WASNA nine seven right like you'd be 66 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: like be from Ohio. Uh. And for those of you wondering, 67 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: we're rolling with these three right now. I mean, we 68 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: don't have any plans to replace anybody. I know. I 69 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: a couple of tweets yesterday about it whenever the Rob 70 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: news broke. But we're rolling with us three at the moment. 71 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: This is your talking Cowboys crew for now. We may 72 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: add a fourth down the line. I would say there's 73 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: a good chance we would add a fourth down the line. 74 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: But right now it is Patrick, it is Isaiah as myself. 75 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 1: We're gonna ride with it. So Kyle's taking application is 76 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: just DM Yeah, yeah, an application, Chris Beam, don't don't 77 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: she's already applied. Actually, see you would like you to 78 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: d M him as well. Let's fill those up. There's 79 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: a reason your dms aren't open all the time, right, 80 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: are they open? Are you looking at me? Yeah, yes, 81 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,799 Speaker 1: we're looking at you. They're closed at the moment. Yeah, 82 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: at the moment. They closed at the all right, but yeah, 83 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: well we're gonna roll with this three and Chris in 84 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: the back, and then we'll probably add a fourth here 85 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: at some point down the line. Now, Patrick, I gotta 86 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: shift the news and notes column to you. So what's 87 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: your first news and notes? The Cowboys back on the 88 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: field yesterday they had a special guest out there too. 89 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: They did so first of all, WWRD. But would Rob 90 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: do okay, Rob, I believe would note that post Malone 91 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: was in fact in the building on yesterday. He was, 92 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: you know, sideline looking at Dak Prescott's throwing session, I believe. So, 93 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: you know, post Malone obviously a massive Cowboys fan. He 94 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: has family ties here as well, and also a huge 95 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: friend of Dak Prescott, so I'm sure he wanted to, 96 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: you know, get an eye or two on QB one. 97 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: But Dak Prescott, for the first time since suffering the 98 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: fractured thumb in Week one, was a full participant on 99 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: the injury report for the Cowboys. Now keep in mind 100 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 1: that was more of a mock game kind of a 101 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: jog through the first actual practice for this week, which 102 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: will also be the largest, biggest practice for this week 103 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: is going to be today, so today is really going 104 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: to be key. But he has been medically cleared per 105 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 1: head coach Mike McCarthy, so that is massive. Everything is 106 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: green lighted as far as him going on Sunday as 107 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: long as there are no setbacks between now and Sunday 108 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: facing the Detroit Lions. So huge news there. Dak Prescott 109 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: is still on track to be the starter against the 110 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: Detroit Lions. Also from the injury report, Dalton Schultz was 111 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: a full participant after missing last week with the reaggravated 112 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: PCL sprain that cost him two of the last three outings. 113 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: We'll see what today looks like, because again yesterday was 114 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: more of a mock game. Today is going to be 115 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: a full workload. We'll see if he's going to be 116 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: listed as full again or possibly limited. Ceedee Lamb was limited, 117 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 1: but no concern there. Lamb was you know, he looked 118 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: great physically against the Philadelphia Eagles, so this is probably 119 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: more precautionary than anything. Quentin Bohannah, who's been battering a 120 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 1: battered lean i'm sorry, battling a shoulder injury. It was 121 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: a full participant as well, so overall as it stands, 122 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: pretty Yeah, how Boys injury report looks fantastic at the moment, 123 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: help is on the way and ahead of the bye week, 124 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: no list that's physically unheard of? Is that A Well, yeah, 125 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: you got a couple of weeks to the bye week, 126 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: so I know that's I'm still yeah, let's knock right 127 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: on that wood, all right. But I think whenever you 128 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: look at Wednesday's participation, how much is it because of 129 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: or influence because of a walkthrough? Are you more likely 130 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: to be a full participant in a walkthrough than you 131 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: are a full practice because today we'll find out more 132 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: about whatever the injury situation looks like on the team. 133 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: I would say probably so. But then you look at 134 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: the situation with Ceedee Lamb. He was listed as limited 135 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: on yesterday, So to that point, why we Lamb have 136 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: not been listed as full as well? So I think 137 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: that there's some credence to that. But at the same time, 138 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: there is something notable to be said in Dak Prescott 139 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: being listed as full as opposed to being listed as limited. 140 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's basically the Cowboys saying, hey, we're aiming 141 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: him right at the Detroit Lions. So Yeah, there's a 142 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: lot to take away or positively from a Dallas standpoint. Yeah, 143 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any question at this point whether 144 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: Deck's playing or not. It's to your point. If he 145 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: has a flare up, then obviously that would set them back. 146 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: But all all signs point to him being the starter 147 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: in this week's game, and it's a great week to 148 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: do so because his defense is trash compost. You want 149 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: to go into it. Yeah, they're not even composted there, 150 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: trash compost. You can take a little bit more quality, 151 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: you know, you gotta you gotta put it in there, 152 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: roll it around, you guys, pure trash. Bottom of the league, 153 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: so worse than Washington because you call Washington compost exactly Washington. 154 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: They're calling these guys, yep, trash and Washington manners have 155 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,599 Speaker 1: allowed one hundred and thirty five points this year. The 156 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: Detroit Lions are sitting at the bottom of the league 157 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: with one hundred and seventy points given up, averaging thirty 158 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: four points per game given up. This year, they've given 159 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: up thirty four points per game. That's on average. That's 160 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: a septic tank. That's that's yeah, we're at the septic Yeah, 161 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: like but like once a week, change it out, like 162 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like there's just like not 163 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: even over the weekend, like not even a couple's not 164 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: dropping off on Friday, pick it up on Saturday. Sprinkles. Yeah, 165 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: this is straight just yeah marinating it gets sprinkle some ridings. Yeah, 166 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: they're trashed. They're trying hard, though, Kyle, they try hard. 167 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: That's good. I mean, Dan Campbell team, you're gonna have 168 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: high effort and valiant effort. You know, good job, guys. 169 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: They're running around, but this is not a good defense man. 170 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: And this is this is this is why Dak's coming 171 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: back this week. This is redemption week for Dack and 172 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 1: Kellen Moorey can't wait to throw the ball seven hundred 173 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: and twenty two times this game. So, by the way, 174 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: PFF's always right whenever it agrees with you, right, I mean, 175 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: it agrees with Isaiah. They are tied for the bottom 176 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: defensive grade in the league with the Arizona Cardinals, and 177 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: they have a fifty. They're getting a fifty out of 178 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: a hundred. That's their grade so far. The top team 179 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: is an eighty five, and that's the Denver Broncos. By 180 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: the way, the Cowboys, just for reference, are in eighth 181 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: place in that grading. So but most most other teams 182 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: have played played six games, Kyle, Yeah, most, I think. 183 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: I don't think other people understand it. Most other teams 184 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: have played six games. There's a handful of teams that 185 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: have had some buys, but they are at the bottom 186 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: of the league with one hundred and seventy points giving 187 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: up through five games. Yeah, they've already had their bye week, 188 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: coming off of their bye week trash and we talked 189 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: about in news and notes. We talked about the Cowboys 190 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: getting healthier. The Detroit Lions are not getting healthier. Look 191 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: at some of these defensive players that were DNP and 192 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: they did not have a walk through yesterday. They had 193 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: an actual practice coming off of their bye. You got 194 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: Chris Board d MP, linebiker. You got who else? John Kaminski, 195 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: he was limited. You got off try off of a bye, 196 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: Charles Harrott, a little bank pass rusher dealing with a 197 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 1: growing injury dnpafon DMP, Bobby Price, DMP. I mean like 198 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 1: ten days off, Yeah, ten days off and those guys 199 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: are still not healed. Yeah, they're banged up and they 200 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: haven't played well. But they've got pieces on that defense. 201 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that they're the same defense that you 202 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: saw last week against Philadelphia, but they've invested picks up front. 203 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: I mean, Aidan Hutchinson was the number two overall pick 204 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: this past day, Browl. He's been playing, he's been decent. 205 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 1: He's still learning. He's not gonna have the same kind 206 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: of impact that you would see from a Michael Parsons 207 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: this year as a rookie, but he's been playing decent. 208 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 1: And you've got Jeff Acuta on the outside, who was 209 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: supposed to have a rebound year and that hasn't necessarily happened. 210 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: Number three overall pick from twenty twenty, so this is 211 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 1: his third year in the league. You would think your 212 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: Kuda would already be stepping up. He hasn't looked like that. 213 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: I said this past offseason, I think the ship has sailed, 214 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,559 Speaker 1: at least sailed on a Kuda's stock in Detroit. Now, 215 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: it could be a situation where the young man maybe 216 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: needs a fresh start somewhere else, and I'm sure he'll 217 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: be getting that sooner than later. But as you said, Kyle, 218 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: it was supposed to be a twenty twenty two season 219 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: that potentially saw him start to really realize his potential 220 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 1: and step into that that big ticket role. But it's 221 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: it's just not happen. And obviously, when you're talking about 222 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: the Lion's defense, first and foremost, you have to go 223 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: right to Aidan Hutchinson. But then once you didgate, if 224 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: you're able to negate Adan Hutchinson, there's not a lot 225 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: of support outside of or four eight Hutchinson being on 226 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: the defensive line, the linebacker court, or the secondary. He's 227 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 1: kind of on an island there. So if Hutchinson isn't 228 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: able to get consistent pressure and disrupt the offense, the 229 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: lines are just they're just out there. I like enz alone, 230 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: that's fair. I like him. He saw he reminds me 231 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: of He reminds me of like an AJ Hawk type 232 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 1: of guy, you know what I mean, just like no, no, 233 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: no, no no, no, no, it's not it's it's just relentless effort. 234 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:30,959 Speaker 1: It's just really I mean, he's not as dominant he 235 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: got right, but he has a motor. His motor doesn't 236 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: stop fighting front the time that the whistle starts to 237 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: to the end of the game, that dude, or you're 238 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: gonna have to deal with him giving you one hundred 239 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: percent of what he has. That's not the case with everybody. 240 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: Let's just be real out there, and people play majority 241 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: of the game at about seventy five and then they 242 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: leave a little bit in the tank when they need 243 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: to when they need to go one hundred. That's the 244 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 1: reality of NFL. Sorry people, if you thought it was 245 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 1: one hundred percent every play, it's not okay. But guys 246 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: like him come along every so often and they are 247 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: just empty in the tank every single play. Well, Xavier 248 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: Woods told them that that wasn't the truth. And Xavier 249 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: Woods in the middle of that we read the room 250 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: kind of thing. But I mean, that's a name. There's 251 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: a another notable and Deshaun Elliott. He's another notable guy 252 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 1: you talk about somebody like who. He's tied actually with 253 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: him for the most tackles on the Detroit Lions. They 254 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: have forty combined a piece, and Elliott has the as 255 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 1: one of the only two interceptions for the Detroit Lion 256 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: secondary and that kind of seguays to one of the 257 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: biggest problems for Detroit is they also can't get the 258 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 1: ball turned over. They only have two interceptions through five games. 259 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 1: They only have two forced fumbles and only recovered one 260 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: of those forced fumbles. I guess, okay, fifty percent success 261 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 1: right on the forced fumbles, but you only got two. 262 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: So they're not punching the ball away. They're not taking 263 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: the ball away in the air, they're not getting consistent 264 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: pressure outside of Adan Hutchinson. Why drop it? Because they're velcrow? Okay, 265 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: talk to their veil crow? Was what what was bill? Crowd? 266 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: To Cotton falls off the freaking no, it sticks on, 267 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: freaking God, Kyle, Okay, they're very crow. They're defensive lineman there, 268 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: they're linebackers. I don't know how apparently all right? They 269 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: you never I was thinking like the one. I was 270 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: thinking of the one that like stuck each other. Of 271 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: what happened? Sticks it sticks to Cott? I thought he 272 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: was talking about, like you put it on something that 273 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: just falls off. These guys are like these guys are 274 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: like flex sial in the corner of your top. All right, 275 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: These guys they do not get off blocks for anything. 276 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: They they're aggressive because of who their coach is. So 277 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: they play with high with high motors. Yeah, okay, but 278 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: those high motors run smack into offensive alignment and they 279 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: once they get on, they do not get off at all. 280 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: These guys lock on, they run them back, you know, 281 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: two three yards off the line of scrimmage they're able 282 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: to get they get turned and they don't get to 283 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: their to their assignments, and they ultimately give up a 284 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: lot of big play Sometimes it it could sound like 285 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: that could be a good thing for a defense, but 286 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: can you explain why that's not a good thing. It's 287 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: a good thing to have a high motor. It's a 288 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: good thing to put out, you know, a max effort 289 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: and to go all out. However, if what you if 290 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: that effort is taking you out of your assignment, if 291 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: that effort isn't allowing for you to get off of 292 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: your block so that you can do what you need 293 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: to do in your particular role in the defense, then 294 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: you're now out of position. And if you're out of 295 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: position and everybody else that's next to you is out 296 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: of position, obviously bad things are going to happen if 297 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: you're the Detroit Lions. And that's unfortunately what they're facing. 298 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: And I think they have an identity crisis right now. 299 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: I think they're trying to appease who their coach is 300 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: and what their coaches character is and what he wants 301 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: to character of this team to be, not even just 302 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: his defense, but this entire team. But they're doing so 303 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: at their own demise, right and you know, kind of 304 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 1: circling back. And those are excellent points. And adding to 305 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: that is the fact that their coverage windows and their 306 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: secondary are massive because outside of Hutchinson, they can't consistently 307 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: get pressure. I mentioned the moment ago that Charles Harris 308 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: would still d andp he missed their previous game before 309 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: the bye week. With this growing injury, he's one of 310 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: the only three or four guys who has a sack 311 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: on a defense that only has seven sacks through five games. 312 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: They can't get home, they can't consistently get pressure. And 313 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: that's going to allow that the Cowboys second or passing attack, 314 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: which now features again Dak Prescott. It's really going to 315 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: give them an opportunity, Dak Prescott to go through his reads, 316 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: go through his progression and say, hey, okay, well a 317 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: Coula might have this might have won this particular battle, 318 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: but guesshood, I got two other three other guys I 319 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: can go to, and I got time to do it. 320 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: So the Detroit Lions are going to be really up 321 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: against it. Even though we don't completely expect that Dak 322 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: Prescott's going to hit the ground running. I mean, don't 323 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: be surprised if he does against this defense. Here he's hitting, 324 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: He's hitting the treadmill at while one miles power. His 325 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 1: footing is not gonna have any problems. This is not 326 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia's Eagles where you got these guys. The treadmill's 327 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: going twenty miles power. You gotta catch the riff. This 328 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: dude's gonna go on that thing, just be stroller striding 329 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: like he's at the dog on the mall at six am. 330 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: I was thinking about it last night more and more, 331 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: and I was like, you know what we there. There's 332 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: a lot to be said for the likelihood that Dek 333 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: Prescott still needs to get his timing back. Mike McCarthy 334 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: keeps talking about it, you know, and now it's a 335 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: new look wide receiver Corps. Obviously he has some history 336 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,439 Speaker 1: with Noah Brown, but not to the point he had 337 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: with Cedric Wilson. So some things need to be worked 338 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: out there. But you couldn't be you couldn't go against 339 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: a better defense as far as the matchup school if 340 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,199 Speaker 1: you're trying to get your offense back on track. So 341 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 1: just yeah, it temper your expectations for Deak Prescott's return 342 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 1: to action. But if that goes out, I just wouldn't 343 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 1: be surprised if that goes out there and throws three 344 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: touchdowns one to three different receivers against this defense. And 345 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: that's exactly what the Cowboys hope will happen, so that 346 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,479 Speaker 1: he can build on that time and that confidence going 347 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: into the Bears game and then the bye week and 348 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: so forth and so on. That's the blueprint hopefully. Yo, 349 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: you said that word. I was already about the tease 350 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: going into the break. Why is this note? I want 351 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: to know why this is different than the Broncos last season, 352 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: because that game was the blueprint for the Cowboys. I 353 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: want to mention it a little bit more because the 354 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: more I look into it, the more this game reminds 355 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 1: me of that game because we're talking about it the 356 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 1: same way we talked about that game too last year. 357 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 1: When we come back here on talking Cowboys, I want 358 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: to talk about how to avoid the blueprint on the 359 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: other side from Detroit when we come back right after this. 360 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: When you build, you start with the foundation and homeownership 361 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: is a foundation of a stable future.

Isaiah Standbackpatrick nose Walker, I'm Kyle Yeoman's 404 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: glad you're with us, oh Man, I just keep going 405 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: back to this game from last year? Why and Patrick? 406 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: And the break was like, why are you bringing up 407 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 1: old stuff? Going to post? Why do you bring it up? 408 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: Because because I don't want history to repeat itself. That's why. Okay, 409 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: that's why. Because those knowledge history. If you don't want 410 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: history to repeat itself, correct, those who don't know history 411 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: are doomed to repeat it, right. I mean that's why 412 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: I'm bringing it up. I'm not bringing it up for 413 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: an emotional attachment. I'm not bringing it up because I 414 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: think it's going to happen. I want it to not 415 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: happen because last year you overestimated or underestimated excuse me, 416 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos coming off of a Sunday night football game. 417 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: You won that game. So it's a little bit different 418 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: and kind of like what we talked about yesterday with 419 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy, he was asked if this was a trap game. 420 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: This is not a trap game in his eyes, which 421 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: is fine. I'm okay with that because it's a real 422 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: game in his eyes. How is this different, Isaiah? This 423 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 1: year with the Detroit Lions, young pieces on defense, a 424 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: lot of no name guys running around there in the 425 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: back level as well, and some firepower on offense to 426 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: the pact where they come into AT and T Stadium. 427 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys always got a target on their back no matter what. 428 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: How can Dallas avoid the repeat of twenty twenty one Denver? 429 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: I can't say without a shadow of a doubt that 430 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: they can avoid it, but it's not as probable. You 431 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 1: think about the defensive coordinator for Denver last year, it 432 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 1: was Fio. Well, Fangio was a head coach. Oh yeah, yeah, 433 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: he ran a defense, so he has a lot of 434 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: wisdom in that regard. He's been he's a proven defensive 435 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: coordinator and he picked apart the offensive Dallas. All right. 436 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: He took advantage of Kelly Moore Aaron Glenn as a 437 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions. I love ag. Ag 438 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: was my teammate when I first got here, have a 439 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: high regard for him as a player, but I haven't 440 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: seen it as a defensive coordinator yet, so I don't 441 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 1: think that they have the personnel that Denver had. I 442 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: also don't think that they have the wisdom from the 443 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: person who's calling the plays yet. And I think that 444 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: combination favors the Dallas Cowboys and highly makes it highly 445 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: likely that they are not going to repeat or highly 446 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,959 Speaker 1: unlike that they're going to repeat what they're what they 447 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: did last year. You just think from a scheme standpoint, 448 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 1: Glenn doesn't have the same firepower. And I mean they've 449 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,199 Speaker 1: got the Denver's defense last year was more talented than 450 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,199 Speaker 1: this Lions defense straight up on paper, person because they 451 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 1: had Justin Simmons, they had Patrick's Ertan and guys like that. 452 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: But you've got young pieces here too. But you think 453 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: it's the scheme that's different. Yeah, because you had the 454 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: scheme up to beat the Cowboys offense a year ago, 455 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 1: but the offense isn't as good this year though, correct, 456 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: And I'm into yes, you're absolutely correct, So I stand 457 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: behind those those comments. However, I did mention yesterday, I 458 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: believe or to day before that this is the most 459 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 1: prepared that the Detroit Lions will be for an opponent 460 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 1: aside from Game one of the season, because I've got 461 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: two two weeks to prepare. So even though AG, you know, 462 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: Aaron Glen, that's what we would call him, AG does 463 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 1: not have the wisdom of a fangio this, he does 464 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: have time on his side to go ahead. And if 465 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: there are any kind of weaknesses or any kind of 466 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 1: tendencies that they can find on film from Kelly Moore 467 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 1: in Dallas Cowboys offense, they would have found them by now. 468 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: The disadvantage to them is that you're getting a dack 469 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: that you haven't seen a lot of this year, and 470 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: you can go back to recent years, you can go 471 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:11,959 Speaker 1: back to whatever you want to and look at what 472 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,680 Speaker 1: was right, But in terms of this season, they only 473 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 1: have one game to go back and watch. For me, 474 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: it's it's just different emotionally more than anything. Uh, it's 475 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: a Cowboys team that's not only is it you know, 476 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: going to be charged up because it's getting QB one bag, 477 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: which was not the case last year. They're they're coming 478 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: off of a lost versus as you mentioned, they were 479 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: coming off of a win in Minnesota. Yeah, against the 480 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. But even more so than that, going into 481 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: the Broncos game last year they were won a six 482 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: game winning streak and that included and a thrilling overtime 483 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,880 Speaker 1: victory against New England. And New England. You're super charged, though. 484 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: You then go to Minnesota, you beat Minnesota. Oh we 485 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: got it. Here comes feeling themselves. Yeah yeah, here comes 486 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 1: the Broncos and it's like, okay, well we'll just blow 487 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: past these guys. Oh hold on, now that's right. What happened? 488 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 1: All right, let's ride right. So you had that, but 489 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 1: if you compare it to now you went into Philly 490 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: and you didn't just lose the Philly you basically gave 491 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 1: them the game. So walking through the locker room yesterday 492 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 1: talking to guys like Jay Ron Curse for example, talking 493 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 1: to guys like George Lewis, like, these guys are pissed, 494 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: like that, Lay Vanderess, that's not having it exactly, Lady Vanderess. 495 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 1: Another one, Anthony Barr, these guys are pissed. When Dan 496 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 1: Quinn said it a couple of days ago, it was 497 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: validated when I walked through the locker room yesterday and 498 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: I'm talking to guys like jay Ken, you talked to 499 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 1: lv and and you know and the other defensive guys. 500 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: They want to get back on this field asap, pronto. 501 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: They're not looking at the Lions and saying okay, well 502 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: you know they're no, they're looking at it as this 503 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: is the next op and we got to run through 504 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: them because we're pissed off about the last game. So 505 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 1: that's that's, you know, a couple of key variables. But 506 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: also keep in mind you mentioned Fangio's defense. Fangio was 507 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: not good at offense, but the Broncos defense in twenty 508 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: twenty one was quite a bit better than this Lions defense. Yes, 509 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: they both still had some young pieces, and that's that's 510 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 1: really where the comparison halts. Yeah, because the scheme was 511 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: better in the Broncos than it is with the Detroit Lions. 512 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: Between Fangil versus Aaron Glenn and look at the health 513 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: of the Lions are like the Rove come into this game, 514 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: particularly on the defensive side of the ball. You look 515 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: at the inability to take the ball away, the inability 516 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: to consistently get pressures. It's only the same in that 517 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: in my eyes, and that the Cowboys are coming off 518 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 1: of a Sunday night game. That's the only thing that's 519 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: really similar, coming off of a Sunday night game, going 520 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: against what supposedly is a team that's not going to 521 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 1: be a good team because they're not a good team. 522 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,239 Speaker 1: You are what your record says you are. Shouts out 523 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: to Tuna. But at the end of the day, emotionally 524 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: it's different. This is not a six game win streak. 525 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:55,719 Speaker 1: This is four and two. You just lost to your 526 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 1: division rival in primetime in Philadelphia. You have a huge 527 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 1: distaste in your mouth. It's just sour on your tongue. 528 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: Right now, you're going you're back home. You're going against 529 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,360 Speaker 1: the team that's thirty second in the league. And if 530 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 1: there was a thirty third, they'd be thirty third in 531 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 1: the league. I mean, to your point, it's it's septic tank, right, 532 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: So that those are the differences for me. I think 533 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: this is a Cowboys team that's just mentally they're laser focused. 534 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 1: They're not right high on a six game win streat. 535 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 1: They know that if they dropped the four and three, 536 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: albeit it won't, it would be the end of the world. 537 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,880 Speaker 1: Dropped the four and three against the Detroit LANs team 538 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: at home and it's going to feel real bad. And 539 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 1: now you're going to drop that much further in the 540 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: NFC East race. Yeah, there's something to play for here 541 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: when there is a battle like this happening in the division, 542 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: when you do have not just one team you're going 543 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 1: up against with Philadelphia, but you've got this surprise team 544 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 1: in New York that's playing really well and it's five 545 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: and one at the moment. How many times does how 546 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: does that play into your preparation and your energy and 547 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: emotion throughout a week whenever there are a couple of 548 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: teams that you're trying to compe again, there's no room 549 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: for error. You can't afford to drop one, you know, 550 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: to the point that you just made and see, you 551 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: can't afford to drop one. And if you do drop one, 552 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: you're putting yourself in a pretty dicament and you can't 553 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 1: be end up pretty decaments. And it's in his covers 554 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 1: right now because these teams are playing well, and you 555 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: know that those two teams that are playing well that 556 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 1: you are your opponents in this division are going to 557 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: continue to improve. You know who Philadelphia has coming up? 558 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 1: Their schedule is just about as easy as the Dallas 559 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys is in terms of on paper, so they foresight, 560 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: they're probably not going to drop too many games over 561 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 1: the next five or six games. Then you look at 562 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: the New York Giants and they're going to continue to 563 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: get better, to have a brand new coach who is 564 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: only going to improve as the season goes on. He's 565 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,719 Speaker 1: going to continue to put powerma more onto their offense, 566 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: and that and Danny Dimes and those guys gonna continue 567 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: to get more COFID. They're gonna score more points, so 568 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: they're gonna get more dangerous. So you can't afford to 569 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: put yourself against the wall. You've had enough against your 570 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,719 Speaker 1: enough of having your back against the wall this year. Already, 571 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: you drop week one, you lost your qby you picked 572 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: it up, you pasted it together. You know what I'm 573 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: saying you. You went ahead and you got your Elmer's 574 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: glue when you you put all those pieces together, and 575 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: now you're sitting back and you're looking at you like, Okay, 576 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: what what can I do with this? And he's like, 577 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: oh crap, I didn't see these pieces over here, and 578 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: that's Dak's coming back. So now you get to put 579 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: all your pieces together, and now you get to go 580 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:14,719 Speaker 1: out there and play the best ball that you can 581 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: possibly play. And there's an added aspect to it because 582 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: we're talking about the NFC. In the race in the NFC, 583 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: in the NFC East, you're hoping to split with the 584 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles, and if it comes out that you need 585 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 1: a tiebreaker at the end of the at the end 586 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: of the season the Detroit Lions. Guess what, that's a 587 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: that's a like opponent that you know, that's a common opponent, right, 588 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: common opponent goes into that as well as far as 589 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: potential tiebreakers. So you need this when the Cowboys know 590 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: they need this winning again, they're not righting high off 591 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: of any kind of wind streak right now. They're they're 592 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: kind of feeling that sting from Sunday when you walk 593 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: into the locker room. You said that you felt them 594 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: being pissed off. Now you felt them being a little 595 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 1: bit angry. Yeah, what were they angry about? Were they 596 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: angry that they lost? Were they angry about how they lost? 597 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: Were they angry that they didn't do their best? Like? 598 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: What were they angry about? It? Give us the third one. 599 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: I think it was a combination combination because lay and 600 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: Vander esch May very clear that he felt that they 601 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 1: could do better. He kept saying, obviously we have things 602 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: we can clean up. You see it, you saw what 603 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: it was. And I think he was referencing like the 604 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: mistackles and things like that. Actually, so there was an 605 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: accountability there was. That's what it felt like, a ton 606 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: of accountability speaking kind of off the cove with jay 607 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: Ron Curse and basically Jarron Curse was saying, hey, we 608 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: gave them that and that can't happen. But and he 609 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: kept saying, they got to come to the crib in 610 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: the same so they're anxious to correct the errors. They're 611 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: not saying, yeah, they're not saying we're upset because we 612 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: went up there and they beat us. They're saying that 613 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: we're upset because we went up there and we lost. 614 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: And I love to hear that, Yeah, I love to 615 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: hear that, because, well, we've been hearing a lot of 616 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: fans this week. Right, We've seen it in the past. 617 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 1: We've seen it in past years where there was a 618 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: lack of accountability. Right, we heard the wee movement and 619 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: all that jazz, and you know there's guys, there were 620 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: guys that didn't want to admit that they took the 621 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: ail whatnot the wee wee the pause pause, Yeah, he swiping, 622 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: no swiping. But there was a lack of accountability here 623 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: for a while and dan Quinn has obviously changed that culture. 624 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: That's one of the main things that he's done. So 625 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: it's great to hear that guys are in the locker 626 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 1: room after a loss and they're saying, yeah, we messed up, 627 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: Yeah we gave this, Yeah we did this, because guess what, 628 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 1: who's in control of that them. It's a lot different 629 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: when you hear that type of talk versus oh, you 630 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: know the referees. We heard that how many years or 631 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: two years ago? Right, Oh, it was the referees. You 632 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 1: know the referees when we're playing against all these guys. 633 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: There's a little bit of that at the beginning of 634 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: last year game, there's a little bit of and they 635 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: guess what, that's just that's kind of trickled away. So 636 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: it's it is very encouraging to hear that these guys 637 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: are taking up for their mess ups because they are 638 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: correctable in it's heapaning, they're absolutely taking accountability. And from 639 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 1: my ears from walking around and being in the scrums 640 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: and talking to the guys. There was not a single 641 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: question about officiating that was posed or answered. These guys 642 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: are looking inward good going into the Detroit Lions game. 643 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: The only time I've heard about the officiating from the 644 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 1: Philly game was it Mike McCarthy's Monday, And basically they 645 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: asked They asked about the pick play where Tavante Smith 646 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: was kind of coming over and he ran a quote 647 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: unquote rud route, but it was a pick and it 648 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,719 Speaker 1: allowed A J. Brown to score on the touchdown. And 649 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: he was like, I mean, he was visibly upset by that. 650 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: And he was like, well, you got to check the 651 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: rule book because a lineman or five down the five 652 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: yards downfield, they're blocking downfield. Oh, and there was a 653 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: pick play and all this sorts of stuff. So he 654 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 1: kind of made some excuses on Monday, But no player 655 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: in that locker room has made a single excuse. That's 656 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: the correct thing to think. I don't want to hear 657 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 1: any of that. All right, let's take our second break. 658 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll continue to look deeper into 659 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: the Cowboys offense. Could they maybe utilize Ceedee Lamb and 660 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: Kavante Turpin in a different way This week now that 661 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is back in the fold, when we come 662 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: back with more talking Cowboys present presented by Black Rifle 663 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: Coffee Company, Todd thought it would be secure to jog 664 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 1: and the cheetahs. Event Todd believed the big Cat repellent 665 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: he bought online was reliable. And now Todd is trying 666 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 1: to be faster than this cheetah that can run eighty 667 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: miles per hour.

It is fast, reliable and secure, 669 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: and he learned the best thing to do is stop 670 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: running and toss her the backpack with the beef stew 671 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: at and T five G.

Nope, I'll be happy there it was, it was. 711 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 1: I'll be happy if there's one. There's one, you know, 712 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: but there is going to be at least one. No, 713 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,319 Speaker 1: there's one at least out there. And then I'm sure 714 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: we'll probably try and push for the playoff game too 715 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: if we get to that point. If we get to 716 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: the playoffs, if we get to that point, you have 717 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: to play. And I mean you got a plan. Third 718 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 1: place in the division, Yeah, you got a little bit 719 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: of work to do. Got a little bit of work today. Work. 720 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:10,359 Speaker 1: They'll get there though, you think, So? Okay, I like it. 721 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 1: Tiger milk, tiger milk. I'm wearing my shirt tomorrow. By 722 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: the way, Rob do, what would Rob? He drank tiger milk? Yes, 723 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 1: he would all day long. He already texted us, and 724 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: I was watching all right, So I got this question 725 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: on Twitter. Uh, Robert asked us on Twitter. He said, 726 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: please ask Isaiah, ask the man. Why does the Cowboys 727 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: offense not use crossing routes with our receivers and let 728 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,280 Speaker 1: them get the yards after the catch? I think Turpin 729 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 1: and Lamb could excel at this. You know what, You're 730 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,439 Speaker 1: not wrong, sir, and you will see that most likely 731 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: beginning this week, simply because of what the Detroit Lion want. 732 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: Let me back up. Number one. You haven't used three 733 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: receivers that much this year because you've been trying to 734 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 1: protect Cooper Rush, so you haven't seen many crossing routes 735 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: because you just can't run crossing routes with two man 736 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: concepts up. So you'll start seeing that again this week 737 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 1: off of the play action. If they can establish a 738 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 1: running game and gets Detroit, which I don't see that 739 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 1: being a problem, You're gonna get the Dallas Cowboys getting 740 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: back to play action. You're gonna see the Dallas Cowboys 741 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: getting back to crossing routes because these guys like to 742 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 1: play man to man for whatever reason, and they're not 743 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: very good at it. And you'll start seeing Norah Brown. 744 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 1: You'll start seeing gallup get to get some of these 745 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: crossing routes CD man, they will try to get CD down. 746 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 1: They'll use Gallop down the field CD, Nora Brown crossing, 747 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,839 Speaker 1: and you'll start seeing somebody's pick plays that of Coach 748 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 1: McCarthy didn't like last week. You'll start seeing Dallas use 749 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:38,439 Speaker 1: that to their advantage. Agreed. I mean it's while they 750 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:43,520 Speaker 1: didn't shrink the playbook for Cooper Rush, they also didn't 751 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 1: explore as deeply into the playbook as as they will 752 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 1: with Dak Prescott in the lineup. So hopefully they stick 753 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: with the runn attack and continue to lean on that. 754 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 1: But my point being, when it comes time to pass, 755 00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 1: some of those passing concepts that weren't accessible for Cooper 756 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: Rush will be reaccessible for qu One. It's like it's 757 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: like a book, man. If I'm reading the book and 758 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 1: I have a bookmark in there right now you're like, oh, 759 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: I want to see where you are you reading. I 760 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 1: take the bookmark out as give it to You're gonna 761 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 1: start back at play one. You know, you're gonna start 762 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: back at page one. So that's where they did with 763 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,600 Speaker 1: with Cooper Rush. They went back to page one, and 764 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 1: now they're gonna go back and Dak had he had 765 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: a little elephant here once. Yeah he had. Yeah, he 766 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 1: had a little elephant here and there. You didn't see it. 767 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: Now he's gonna open a book back up to the 768 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 1: middle and he's like, oh, okay, this work picking back 769 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: up at this Yeah, so it opens it up a 770 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: significant amount more. But you look at you look at 771 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: just the pure arm talent from Dak Prescott and how 772 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,800 Speaker 1: it differs from Cooper Rush. And we talked about it previously. 773 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: He could do so many different things. And yes, he 774 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 1: opens up the playbook from a play calling standpoint, but 775 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: he also does it from an opportunity to throw the 776 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 1: football down the field standpoint. So does the deep threat 777 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: kind of help open up the underneath? The underneath stuff 778 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,840 Speaker 1: like Ceedee Lamb and Kavante Turpin and even Michael Gallup 779 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: that they wanted to use him underneath. Does the pure 780 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,800 Speaker 1: threat of Dak Prescott throwing down in the field is 781 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 1: that going to open things up in the medal? It can, 782 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,360 Speaker 1: but I don't think that's what teams fear. Ok. I 783 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 1: think teams fear the run, and I think they fear 784 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,880 Speaker 1: the play action. If you can stop Dallas's run, you 785 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: negate what they do because now, all of a sudden, 786 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: history says, if you can stop the run and stop Zeke, 787 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 1: stop TP, now all of a sudden days, yeah, you 788 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 1: stop the Cowboys and Dak has a throw for forty 789 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,799 Speaker 1: plus times a game. That's what history says, and that's 790 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: what teams would rather have, especially when him coming off 791 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 1: of a thumb injury, right, I think yes and no. Yes. 792 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,799 Speaker 1: Theoretically speaking, the more teams have to play on their 793 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,879 Speaker 1: heels in the secondary and the second the second level 794 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 1: of linebacker and even at the defensive line front, the 795 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 1: more likely you're going to have the second level open 796 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 1: up for those slants that you'd be looking forward for 797 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamming and Kavante Turpin. And I think that for 798 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,959 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. You HARKing back to Week one, which 799 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: was to me, the worst outing of Dak Prescott's career. 800 00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,479 Speaker 1: I don't see that happening again. He didn't have Michael 801 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,400 Speaker 1: Gallup to help stretch the field, so he didn't have 802 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: a Marta Cooper and didn't have Michael Gallup. He really 803 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 1: only had one of his former thousand yard receivers and 804 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,280 Speaker 1: he had Noah Brown. Things still need to be figured 805 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: out going against the Detroit Lions and moving forward. He 806 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 1: does have that deep physical threat in Michael Gallup who 807 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 1: can't take the top off of an imposing defense. So 808 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 1: the Lions are going to have to respect that because 809 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup is in fact on the field, So that 810 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: is in fact going to help the underneath the routes. 811 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: That's going to help the run game. And but then, 812 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 1: like Isaiah saying, one thing plays off of the other, 813 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 1: you're going to have to make sure you're establishing the 814 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: run game so that they can then continue to fear 815 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,359 Speaker 1: that and that's going to bring them forward. So then 816 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 1: you throw it over their head, be a complete or incomplete, 817 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 1: so then they start to play backward and then you 818 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,359 Speaker 1: get to run again. So it's kind of that yo 819 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,799 Speaker 1: yo effect. So do you think the Cowboys offense gets 820 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: back on track this week, Yes, you think they do. 821 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 1: See what would what would be getting back would you 822 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: want me to say, yeah, see week yah? What what 823 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 1: would getting back on track constitute? Like? What would that 824 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 1: look like? For me? That will look like three offensive 825 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 1: touchdowns if you can get uh, you know, twenty one 826 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: points from your offense, you're back on track now if 827 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: you get And how how different is that bar just 828 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: a year ago. You have to adjust with the times 829 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,839 Speaker 1: and when you're right. I agree, but just that's just 830 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 1: a crazy thing to think about. But if they can 831 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:26,839 Speaker 1: get three offensive touchdowns against the Detroit lines are just period. 832 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 1: If they can get three offensive touchdowns one Sunday, um, 833 00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 1: and the biggest error is maybe one interception, you clean 834 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,760 Speaker 1: up the rest of the mistakes, no pre snap penalties, 835 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 1: then for me, the offense will not necessarily be back 836 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 1: on track, um, but it will no longer be derailed, right, 837 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 1: so it'll be close. It will start to approach the 838 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 1: right destination and then they can kind of build steam 839 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,399 Speaker 1: from there, hoping, you know, going forward into the bye week. 840 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 1: What would it look like for you? I was like 841 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: three hundred fifty yards of offense, Okay, I mean, I 842 00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 1: mean you have to take it into content. You're playing 843 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: against the worst defense in the league, So I gotta 844 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,320 Speaker 1: put up numbers. You gotta put up the number four hundred. 845 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: I wanted to say four hundred eight. I want to 846 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 1: say Friday. Friday, I gave a little moorrow tomorrow. You're 847 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 1: a little buffer there, Okay, I went. I was in 848 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,479 Speaker 1: my head. I was about to come out say hundred times. 849 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. But I got to pull 850 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 1: it back a little bit and pull it back. Yeah, 851 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 1: so three fifty, I take three three, give me two 852 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: fifty out of dag. I need one hundred underground. But 853 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,279 Speaker 1: in reality, I wanted about one twenty five on the 854 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 1: ground and I need another you know, two sat in 855 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 1: five or so in the air. I like it. Gosh, 856 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 1: that's I still feel like if that was happening last year, 857 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: you would be like that game and now you're looking 858 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 1: at it like, oh my gosh, can we please just 859 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 1: get there? But luckily this defense is as nasty as 860 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 1: they are. This defense is fantastic. We're gonna preview both 861 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: sides of the football a little bit more in depth 862 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:51,759 Speaker 1: tomorrow as well.
