Speaker 2: I'm studying, don't bother me, but.
Speaker 4: Bill Jones is an assignment again. It's gonna get done
Speaker 4: with this world series stuff.
Speaker 6: I know.
Speaker 2: Jeez.
Speaker 4: Now they got a parade today.
Speaker 2: I know it's a parade. GotY? I mean, did I
Speaker 2: tell you when we won in New York? We never
Speaker 2: had a parade, no way, We never down never had
Speaker 2: a parade, not down broad That's because Jersey and New
Speaker 2: York were trying to figure out who's gonna foot the bill.
Speaker 2: But then they put it on. Well, you know, we've
Speaker 2: got the war over, and you know we don't we
Speaker 2: don't want to celebrate to.
Speaker 4: The Middle East.
Speaker 2: Yeah, come on, man, that had nothing to do with it.
Speaker 2: And the troops, of course we respect that, but that
Speaker 2: had nothing to do with why we did not have
Speaker 2: a parade. That's I'm still asking.
Speaker 4: That's unfortunate.
Speaker 7: You deserve a parade.
Speaker 2: I do deserve a parade, damn it.
Speaker 4: Well, Arlington is getting the parade, by the way, all
Speaker 4: around the district there between the Globe Life Field and
Speaker 4: at and T Stadium by the way, and it's supposed
Speaker 4: to start in fifteen minutes.
Speaker 7: They're expecting like half a million to people.
Speaker 4: I keep hearing that. They were talking on the radio
Speaker 4: about hundreds of thousands of people are on their way,
Speaker 4: and it's.
Speaker 2: Like, okay, well you don't believe it. Well, it was like.
Speaker 4: Three hundred four hundred thousand people are going to be
Speaker 4: in that area.
Speaker 2: I did the cawital.
Speaker 7: I think it'll happen.
Speaker 2: I think it will. I think it will.
Speaker 4: I can't remember what the number was, pretty big downtown
Speaker 4: Dallas when the Cowboys won the suit.
Speaker 2: It was yeah, yeah, and that was in ninety two, right,
Speaker 2: so here we are now, come on.
Speaker 4: I remember I was part of the I was part
Speaker 4: of these that's only thirty one years ago. I was
Speaker 4: part of the KRLD coverage of that Super Bowl. We
Speaker 4: were broadcasting on a balcony outside one of the rooms
Speaker 4: at the Adolphus Hotel and they were just coming right
Speaker 4: by us. And there was very little security back in
Speaker 4: the day. You know how now they have all the
Speaker 4: security for the Parague guys. The Cowboys were on open
Speaker 4: air I want to say, like open air cars like convertibles,
Speaker 4: and the people are just walking down the street with them. Yeah,
Speaker 4: there was no barriers or anything.
Speaker 2: That's before anybody got crazy ideas.
Speaker 4: I know, a simpler time.
Speaker 2: But I wanted my step mom is there. I don't
Speaker 2: know if I told you guys yesterday. She has been
Speaker 2: the Rangers fan. I mean do a die And I
Speaker 2: called her afterwards, Uh huh and weed. Yeah, so I
Speaker 2: wouldn't be surprised if she wanted to make sure.
Speaker 4: There is a bunch of people out there screaming right now.
Speaker 4: But we will get you ready here on Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 4: dot com for Cowboys Eagles on Sunday. Uh a huge game,
Speaker 4: you know what? And it's a huge game for both teams.
Speaker 4: Everybody's acting like this is a big test for the Cowboys,
Speaker 4: well somewhat of a big test for the Eagles.
Speaker 2: It's no doubt it's a bad test for the Eagle.
Speaker 4: And if you think about I know they're seven and one,
Speaker 4: and I know they went to the NFC title.
Speaker 2: Game, they won the ugly seven and one.
Speaker 4: It hasn't been consistent, right, And you know they talk
Speaker 4: about the Cowboys and how they failed the test against
Speaker 4: San Francisco. It's like, okay, but you know, one of
Speaker 4: their tests so far has been Miami. They did win
Speaker 4: the game, but late in the third quarter, it was
Speaker 4: seventeen seventeen, yes, and so an interception turned that game
Speaker 4: around and set up the what ended up being the
Speaker 4: Eagles winning touchdown.
Speaker 2: I think Tyreek Hills drop also could have changed everything.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I score a touchdown on that drive,
Speaker 2: but they had a chance to score and he caught it.
Speaker 2: All they had to do was just veery in. But
Speaker 2: so he's so dull on.
Speaker 4: Fast, like he was too fast.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. So the ball ended up going out
Speaker 2: of the back of the end zone.
Speaker 4: But yeah, they haven't I mean They've given up thirty
Speaker 4: points both times they played Washington with Sam Hall at quarterback,
Speaker 4: by the way, So yeah, this is kind of a
Speaker 4: big game for them. You know, I keep saying everybody
Speaker 4: I saw somebody mentioned that Philadelphia the two game lead
Speaker 4: on the Cowboy. No, they've got a one and a
Speaker 4: half game. They played one more game, right, they're seven
Speaker 4: and one. The Cowboys are five and two. If the
Speaker 4: Cowboys can win this game, they'll both have the same
Speaker 4: amount of losses. But again, it's a tough place to
Speaker 4: go play. Uh, It's always been a tough place to go.
Speaker 2: I hated playing there. I like New York. I like
Speaker 2: playing in New York. I like playing in DC. But
Speaker 2: it's something about Philly. You know, they have it. It's
Speaker 2: something hanging over your head there. You know, it's the anger.
Speaker 2: You can just feel the grittiness when you step into
Speaker 2: the city, you step into the stadium. You know, the
Speaker 2: fans are just I mean, I got flipped off more
Speaker 2: in Philadelphia I got flipped off anywhere else. And that's
Speaker 2: usually the gauge right on how tough the team.
Speaker 4: Is, and you get double barrel right one.
Speaker 2: For me, it's the age. It's the age group too. Right, Yeah,
Speaker 2: you can go down there in thirteen and you're gonna
Speaker 2: get one up to eighty three. You know what I'm saying. No,
Speaker 2: they're they're they're they're very good at.
Speaker 7: That, and they're very passionate.
Speaker 4: I don't see any snow in the in the forecast,
Speaker 4: so there won't be any snowballs thrown.
Speaker 2: At the box coming in or the savannah.
Speaker 8: Well, earlier this week, Nate was telling us a couple
Speaker 8: of different things.
Speaker 7: Uh.
Speaker 8: He told us that they used to have batteries and
Speaker 8: they'd wrap and tossed the snowballs.
Speaker 2: And toothpicks and crap like that.
Speaker 8: Nicky said that when the buses would roll and they'd
Speaker 8: throw stuff at the buses.
Speaker 2: No, not eggs are the buses. But if you call
Speaker 2: Jimmy Johnson was leaving the field. Uh, that was when
Speaker 2: Buddy Lyne was the coach. We were one to fifteen
Speaker 2: that year, so everybody was just stomping all on us
Speaker 2: and uh, Buddy Ryan, he didn't have anyone, but they
Speaker 2: were cursing each other out. He and Jimmy, Well Jimmy
Speaker 2: didn't really curse. He said, fat rear end.
Speaker 4: Get your He got his big fat rare end in
Speaker 4: the locker room.
Speaker 2: Before I can get as Jimmy was trying to leave,
Speaker 2: referees are trying to cover him because the snowballs are
Speaker 2: just coming.
Speaker 4: And then they, I mean they were coming, dumped the
Speaker 4: beer on him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was everything.
Speaker 4: We think it was beer.
Speaker 2: It was yellow, yeah, and there's snow, so it may
Speaker 2: not necessarily be beer. You know, he's talking yellow and snow.
Speaker 2: But yeah, they tried to cover him with their hats.
Speaker 2: It was so few though. I mean, yeah, they didn't
Speaker 2: cover with anything substantial. It was just like you put
Speaker 2: your hat over there. I think that's going to stop
Speaker 2: a batterfield.
Speaker 4: That was the Bounty Bowl or b Bowl. Right after they.
Speaker 2: Took out a kicker. They took out a kick because
Speaker 2: he used to kick for Philly. So I mean, uh,
Speaker 2: that's when you would take That's when you talk about
Speaker 2: taking receipts. Yeah, buddy, Ryan took receipts all year that
Speaker 2: year for the they.
Speaker 4: Were supposedly and I think the supposedly should be in
Speaker 4: lower case because I'm sure it happened. Whoever took out
Speaker 4: the kicker was going to get extra money. Oh yeah, wow,
Speaker 4: a little under the table pay. So yeah, it was.
Speaker 2: It was the kicker how petty.
Speaker 4: Well do you remember the eighty seven game when they
Speaker 4: beat you guys, and then Randall Cunningham did the fake
Speaker 4: kneel down. Yeah, you know, throw a touchdown pass. Hopefully
Speaker 4: it wasn't over you you know it wasn't.
Speaker 2: I don't fall for that. I don't trust anybody. Every
Speaker 2: time a field goes up. I'm looking for a fake.
Speaker 4: Every time the game the game basically was over and
Speaker 4: they were running out the clock and they had kneeled
Speaker 4: to run the time, and they kneeled to run the time,
Speaker 4: and then they did a fake kneel and threw a
Speaker 4: touchdown fan to make it look either.
Speaker 2: Anytime you saw Randall Cunningham having issues in the future,
Speaker 2: I had no sorrow for what's so?
Speaker 4: So anyway, that's where the Cowboys will play on Sunday.
Speaker 4: Huge division matchup and maybe that's why you know, these
Speaker 4: two teams playing each other is huge, But when both
Speaker 4: of them are successful, uh, and it's a game so
Speaker 4: down the road losing whoever loses this game could have
Speaker 4: ramifications on you know, if there's a tiebreaker or a
Speaker 4: home field advantage in the playoffs. So that's why this
Speaker 4: is such a big game. From an injury standpoint, Cowboys
Speaker 4: had Oh I grabbed the wrong one.
Speaker 7: Oh here I'm updated.
Speaker 4: Very good, look at you.
Speaker 8: You take Okay, great, okay. Chuma Doga with the ankle knee.
Speaker 8: He was limited in practice yesterday. They did have full
Speaker 8: pads on.
Speaker 4: Yesterday, and at least he was out there.
Speaker 8: Yes, he was out there. Michael Gallup, he did participate
Speaker 8: in practice yesterday. Jay Ron Curse he was full in practice.
Speaker 8: And Tyrone Smith he did not participate. He was with
Speaker 8: the rehab group still. So we're going to see if
Speaker 8: he was out practice today.
Speaker 4: And they were doing a walk through and Mike McCarthy
Speaker 4: said he thought he would do the walkthrough on Friday
Speaker 4: and then they would judge what he was able to
Speaker 4: do on Saturday when they have it's a non padded practice,
Speaker 4: but it kind of a spirited, upgraded walkthrough on Saturday.
Speaker 4: They least get their helmets on. So tomorrow when they
Speaker 4: do that Saturday practice member day.
Speaker 2: Today they have like half of them have helmets on
Speaker 2: and half don't.
Speaker 4: Yeah, today today is a true walkthrough and then tomorrow
Speaker 4: is what you guys used to do on Friday. And
Speaker 4: he's decided that he wants to keep them engaged on
Speaker 4: Saturday and not have them be two days removed from practice.
Speaker 4: So yeah, so that was important. So we'll see tomorrow,
Speaker 4: probably will find out when we get on the plane
Speaker 4: how they're going to list him. I'm guessing he's going
Speaker 4: to be questionable that way, if it doesn't turn out
Speaker 4: well on Sunday, then they don't get fined fudging the
Speaker 4: injury point. And I think, uh the Eagles had their
Speaker 4: cornerback was Brad Bradley Roby had a shoulder and he
Speaker 4: has not practiced this week, So we'll see where that
Speaker 4: one goes.
Speaker 2: Sidney Brown, would that be his replacement?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I think that's right. That's their their nickel guy.
Speaker 4: Uh so. Uh So, anyway, from an injury standpoint, that's
Speaker 4: where the Cowboys stand right now. The Eles and that's
Speaker 4: the one that I saw as they've got two of
Speaker 4: their backup tight ends have one of them didn't practice
Speaker 4: Calcataria he has been out with a concussion, but he's
Speaker 4: one of the backup guys. Jordan Davis their defensive tackle,
Speaker 4: and Jalen Carter their other defensive tackle. Carter practice fully. No,
Speaker 4: uh he practiced fully and Davis was limited, so they're
Speaker 4: in pretty good shape at this point going forward.
Speaker 2: So no excuses then for me to side.
Speaker 4: That's right, Yes, and Uh, as we've been talking about,
Speaker 4: we mentioned the bills not here because of the parade. Uh.
Speaker 4: Jerry Uh was asked about, you know, the Rangers, you
Speaker 4: know on his one oh five point three segment this
Speaker 4: morning with K and C Masterpiece, and I thought we'd
Speaker 4: play you at cut on what he thought about the
Speaker 4: Rangers and how that might affect the Cowboys, you know,
Speaker 4: inspiration going into the Philly game. So let's hear what
Speaker 4: Jerry had to say.
Speaker 6: You couldn't have red blood in your veins and have
Speaker 6: the chance to compete for some thing, especially if it
Speaker 6: involves sports, and not be additionally inspired by the Rangers,
Speaker 6: And I'm inspired by their manager, I'm inspired by their ownership.
Speaker 6: I'm inspired by the numerous guys that stepped up to
Speaker 6: make all that happen. It's the consummate consonant definition and
Speaker 6: description an example of a team, and it shows how
Speaker 6: many things have to come together to make it hit
Speaker 6: just right. And then it's like catching a falling star.
Speaker 6: It's hard to have it fall together, but I'll tell
Speaker 6: you one thing. Give me these Roague Warriors and I'll
Speaker 6: take on about anything in sports or out of sports.
Speaker 6: If they'll play the way these Rangers did on the road.
Speaker 4: There you go, maybe he needs to use that. That
Speaker 4: was before the game, the team meeting tomorrow, right road. Yeah,
Speaker 4: how about.
Speaker 8: I will say, if the Rangers winning the World Series
Speaker 8: this week and bringing that momentum to Dallas, if that
Speaker 8: doesn't inspire you, I don't know what well.
Speaker 7: I mean, it's just.
Speaker 8: Great energy going into this game on Sunday. And then
Speaker 8: yesterday we talked to Dak after practice and he said,
Speaker 8: congratulations to the Rangers to see what they've done in
Speaker 8: this turnaround the last couple of years. The faith and
Speaker 8: trust in one another is what I took from it.
Speaker 9: Trust right, trust and and you know, if you look
Speaker 9: at how they won this World Series eleven straight wins
Speaker 9: on the road, which no one has ever done in
Speaker 9: MLB playoff history, it's.
Speaker 4: It's hard to do that in the regular season, let
Speaker 4: alone in the playoffs playing the best teams. But you know,
Speaker 4: and you know, Ceedee Lamb talked about it about you know,
Speaker 4: and Dak has gone to the game, so they're quite
Speaker 4: aware of what's going on right about now that parade
Speaker 4: should start in. We should We should have got Bill
Speaker 4: to call in a live feet from a reporter mix shots,
Speaker 4: But we will continue talking Cowboys and Eagles, and I'm
Speaker 4: gonna explain to you why this game is so big
Speaker 4: to the Eagles. Next here on mickshots, I'm.
Speaker 10: Dak Prescott, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 5: And they snapped the press scout who looks right, it's
Speaker 5: not there. He escapes left. He'll want a perch down.
Speaker 10: Just like football, when it comes to crypto, it's important
Speaker 10: to have a team you can trust. With blockchain dot Com,
Speaker 10: I know I'm in good hands. Since twenty eleven, they've
Speaker 10: been trusted by millions around the world to buy, sell,
Speaker 10: and trade crypto currency.
Speaker 5: Prescott's gonna run this himself, run it up the middle,
Speaker 5: and he scores.
Speaker 10: Whether you're new to crypto or an active trader, They've
Speaker 10: got you covered.
Speaker 2: What are you waiting for?
Speaker 10: Gets started at blockchain dot Com.
Speaker 11: You know that sound anywhere. It's the crisp crunch, that
Speaker 11: first nacho chip with its perfect cheese to sour cream ratio,
Speaker 11: sitting atop a layer of delicious beans. It's a sip
Speaker 11: away from perfection. That's what we're looking for. Add a delicious,
Speaker 11: refreshing pepsi, and we've achieved absolute nacho nirvana. Because while
Speaker 11: you can pile those nachos high with every spicy, cheesy,
Speaker 11: savory topping, there's no topping.
Speaker 7: Of fool pepsi.
Speaker 11: Finish nachos better with pepsi.
Speaker 2: That's what I like.
Speaker 12: The Medal of Honor is our country's highest military award
Speaker 12: for valor in combat. More than forty million individuals have
Speaker 12: served in the armed forces since the Civil War. Fewer
Speaker 12: than four thousand have received the Medal of Honor. The
Speaker 12: National Medal of Honor Museum will be a place to
Speaker 12: preserve these legacies and inspire America. It's being built right
Speaker 12: next door to the Dallas Cowboys in Texas. Help us

Speaker 8: K Post Roofing and Waterproofing, the official roofer of the
Speaker 8: Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 4: And we continue here on Mixed Shots with Mickey Savannah
Speaker 4: and Everson Walls. And I saw an interesting story today
Speaker 4: that made me think of you ever since. Jackson State,
Speaker 4: one of the HBCU schools, has a full time female kicker.
Speaker 2: Really, yes, the football team has a sum kicker. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so how she doing.
Speaker 4: I didn't read the rest of I don't know if
Speaker 4: she was making a dating, but I saw.
Speaker 7: That Jackson State, Jackson State of believe.
Speaker 2: I mean it would have to be new because I
Speaker 2: mean they would have said something early in the season, correct, right, Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's Dion's We're going to find out that's Dion's old school. Savannah,
Speaker 2: I guess you knew that. And so yeah he just left.
Speaker 2: See what show stats? What's the status.
Speaker 4: She's actually kicking?
Speaker 7: You're going to find out.
Speaker 2: That is pretty cool.
Speaker 4: But here is why this game. Think think about this
Speaker 4: So the Eagles are playing the five and two Cowboys
Speaker 4: next up after their bye, they got to buy next week.
Speaker 4: So like, if the Cowboys can win this game and
Speaker 4: win next week against the Giants, when the Eagles come
Speaker 4: out of the by, they'd be tied for first place
Speaker 4: in the NFC East at seven and two. But here's
Speaker 4: what the Eagles have after their bye. They have to
Speaker 4: play Kansas City, Buffalo, San Francisco, the Cowboys again, and Seattle.
Speaker 4: So if you include the Cowboys game this Sunday, they
Speaker 4: are next six. Opponents are thirty one and fourteen, so
Speaker 4: they've got a tough stretch coming up, and that is
Speaker 4: why this game is so important to them too. It's
Speaker 4: a big game for them. It's not just a big
Speaker 4: game for the Cowboys. It's a big game for the
Speaker 4: Eagles too. And one of the things that the Cowboys
Speaker 4: have to deal with is aj Brown. Right now, he
Speaker 4: has sixty receptions, which is fourth most in the NFL,
Speaker 4: for nine hundred and thirty nine yards, which is second
Speaker 4: to Tyreek Hill. After eight games, he's number two, and
Speaker 4: he's tied for fifth with eight eight touchdowns. Yeah, typed
Speaker 4: for fifth. So he's been awfully good and My question
Speaker 4: to you is what makes him so good?
Speaker 2: Well? Number one, he's got the biggest back I've ever seen.
Speaker 4: I mean think that's bad.
Speaker 2: I mean did you see him in his uniform? I
Speaker 2: mean it's his shoulders are out here. You know, his
Speaker 2: uniform is extremely tight. But yet this guy is he
Speaker 2: doesn't run tight. He was great routes. He's very very
Speaker 2: precise in his routes. And that's Jalen's goal. That's Jalen's
Speaker 2: go to God. Just like what CD wants to be
Speaker 2: that for Dak, he is that for Jalb.
Speaker 4: So is it his size, his speed? Both?
Speaker 2: That is both because he is extremely strong. So when
Speaker 2: you're talking about getting the ball to him, not just
Speaker 2: in space, because in space means that you could be
Speaker 2: matched up with a guy want on one as he
Speaker 2: comes towards you. They like to catch him going through
Speaker 2: the seams, and once you catch him at full speed
Speaker 2: going through those scenes, no one can bring him down.
Speaker 2: It's like I try to bring down Jerry Rice like
Speaker 2: that one time, and he's not really that big. But
Speaker 2: when you're going against the grain, when you have that
Speaker 2: momentum going for you, it's hard to bring someone even
Speaker 2: if he's smaller than you, It's hard to bring him
Speaker 2: down like that. He's very in tune to what Jalen
Speaker 2: Hurst wants and when he's when Jalen's in trouble, he
Speaker 2: looks directly for Brown. First of all, he's a great athlete.
Speaker 2: The guy can jump, he can run. So if you
Speaker 2: talk about a fifty to fifty ball, most likely aj
Speaker 2: Brown's gonna come up with it. Those fifty to fifty
Speaker 2: balls are extremely important. You see the way Jalen throws
Speaker 2: the ball deep, He throws it high. He done through
Speaker 2: a far. He throws it high because he knows that
Speaker 2: his receivers have the athletic ability to go up and
Speaker 2: compete against the dB.
Speaker 4: So in two games last year against the Cowboys, he
Speaker 4: had eleven receptions for one hundred and seventy yards and
Speaker 4: one touchdown. So what do you do with a guy
Speaker 4: like that. You're the corner and they tell you, Okay, Everson,
Speaker 4: you got.
Speaker 2: A man, a man. I Am not going to let
Speaker 2: him build up his momentum. I'm going to have to
Speaker 2: press him every play, and you have to be careful
Speaker 2: with that because you're going to be the guy that's
Speaker 2: on the stress. If you're a defensive back. You miss
Speaker 2: him at the line, he's gone, So you have to
Speaker 2: worry about not letting him get the momentum. So I'm
Speaker 2: going to squash that and press technique at the line
Speaker 2: of scrimmage so that, in nothing else, he's going to
Speaker 2: have to come through me. I'm not going to open
Speaker 2: the gate for him because that gives it momentum. He's
Speaker 2: going to have to come through me to get into
Speaker 2: his route. Hopefully that would throw us to throw off
Speaker 2: the timing between he and the quarterback. And also, I
Speaker 2: wouldn't mind having a little help over the top. Every
Speaker 2: once in a while, we're.
Speaker 4: Gonna ask you little help over the top? Can you
Speaker 4: do that with the guy on the other side? With
Speaker 4: Dante Smith?
Speaker 2: You can do that on both sides. But then what
Speaker 2: you worry about now is ken your boys up front
Speaker 2: handle to run right? Do you need the safety down there?
Speaker 2: Let's hopefully you don't, and then we could be comfortable
Speaker 2: back here and not necessarily have to take any unnecessary chances.
Speaker 2: I don't mind being hooked up with the number one
Speaker 2: wide receiver, that's okay, But if we don't have to
Speaker 2: take those chances, then.
Speaker 4: Why yeah, because then DeAndre Smith Swift has been pretty
Speaker 4: darn good for him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm hoping my cornerback. You know, we got
Speaker 2: good cornerbacks on both sides. We got good wide receivers
Speaker 2: on both sides. So the matchup is going to be exciting.
Speaker 2: But you don't always have to put your cornerback in
Speaker 2: a stressful situation just so you can say I want
Speaker 2: the matchup, you want to win the game. I don't
Speaker 2: worry about the matchup.
Speaker 8: And I think what's going to be key is getting
Speaker 8: to Jalen Hurts as quickly as possible. Dallas is the
Speaker 8: highest pressure rate in the league. It's forty six point
Speaker 8: seven percent. Nice, So I think it's going to be
Speaker 8: up to our defense at the start to get hurt.
Speaker 4: Yeah. They got it at the front, you know, And
Speaker 4: everybody tells me, how do you cover these guys when
Speaker 4: you put pressure on.
Speaker 2: The Jalen's been having problems. Yeah, he's been having problems
Speaker 2: this year. He's not nearly as sharp as he was
Speaker 2: last year because now you're the team to beat, right
Speaker 2: and they they've been checking out whatever his weaknesses are.
Speaker 2: I remember we were talking about the last matchup he
Speaker 2: and Dak had back in the day. You said the
Speaker 2: game was too fast for him, and I said the
Speaker 2: game was too fast for his offensive line because he
Speaker 2: never had help. But if you look at the potential
Speaker 2: that he has, you look at that touchdown that he
Speaker 2: threw his last touchdown in that game. I came in
Speaker 2: talking about it the next day. He's falling out of
Speaker 2: bounds and he heaves it to the end zone and
Speaker 2: all of his receivers. I think he went up and
Speaker 2: got it fifty to fifty ball, right, He went up
Speaker 2: and got it over three defenders, So that was it
Speaker 2: was an old by the way touchdown. But it was
Speaker 2: all about the potential that he has. So you want
Speaker 2: to make sure that he does not live up to
Speaker 2: his potential at all, and he hasn't been so far
Speaker 2: because everyone's been coming at him with everything that they had.
Speaker 4: So going back to Brown, he's got six consecutive games
Speaker 4: of at least one hundred and twenty five yards. First
Speaker 4: time I think anybody's done that in the NFL. Wow,
Speaker 4: that's incredible. Yes, right, not, so, no one's really figured
Speaker 4: out how to handle him.
Speaker 2: He beat a double team. It was clearly a big
Speaker 2: play in the game. And he beats a double team
Speaker 2: and what you do as a big receiver, you can
Speaker 2: run down the field and create your own space if
Speaker 2: you're bigger than the DV right, you know your stability.
Speaker 2: You know his like I said, shoulders, his muscle structure
Speaker 2: up top allows him to be more stable running down
Speaker 2: the field. If I'm running with a guy down the field,
Speaker 2: the strongest guy most likely is going to get the
Speaker 2: advantage for those fifty to fifty barsnest he's the strongest
Speaker 2: guy going down the field.
Speaker 4: So to put in context of what he's doing along
Speaker 4: with by the way, Tyreek Hill the single season yardage
Speaker 4: record for receptions Calvin Johnson of the Lions nine and
Speaker 4: sixty four yards. And if you remember before the season started,
Speaker 4: Tyreek Hill said I'm going for two thousand this year,
Speaker 4: right yes, well, right now, Tyrek Hill has one thousand,
Speaker 4: one hundred and fourteen receiving yards in eight games.
Speaker 7: So he's on track.
Speaker 4: So that means he's got nine games left, right right,
Speaker 4: Your math is very good, Savannah, because he is on
Speaker 4: pace for two thousand and fifty yards. But aj Brown,
Speaker 4: with the amount of yards I just said he had,
Speaker 4: he's on pace for one ninety five yards. So both
Speaker 4: guys are on pace to break the single season record.
Speaker 2: Right Nowags, I don't care about one player, I really don't.
Speaker 2: I mean, we can let aj Brown go off, right
Speaker 2: and we can still kick their asses. So that's the
Speaker 2: way I look at this. This is this is a team.
Speaker 2: This is a game that's going to be more than.
Speaker 4: About started what Jerry was talking about.
Speaker 2: There's gonna be a bunch of different factors in this
Speaker 2: game that's going to add to winning it well.
Speaker 4: And the key thing, obviously for the Cowboys is well, okay,
Speaker 4: if they're going to score, you got to score.
Speaker 2: You gotta score.
Speaker 4: And I noticed that the Eagles defense that everybody makes
Speaker 4: a big deal about, they're ranked twenty sixth in pasteas right.
Speaker 4: They've been giving up two hundred and forty seven and
Speaker 4: a half yards game. And in the last two games
Speaker 4: Dak Prescott against the Eagle, so it have been one
Speaker 4: last year and then one back in twenty twenty one
Speaker 4: because he missed the first game in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 4: In these last two games, I mean for the Cowboys,
Speaker 4: Dak has completed forty six of sixty one passes. That's
Speaker 4: a seventy five point four percentage completion rate. Five touchdowns,
Speaker 4: one interception, and he has a one twenty four point
Speaker 4: seven quarterback rating. So the coaches, the Eagles coaches have
Speaker 4: been all talking about how well Dak's playing and that
Speaker 4: they've got to try to do things. Sirihani said, we
Speaker 4: got to try to confuse him because once he gets going,
Speaker 4: you know, he's.
Speaker 2: Will they will, they will press obviously.
Speaker 4: And tried got right. Yeah, and right now, Dak's completion
Speaker 4: rate for the season is seventy one percent. He's number
Speaker 4: two to Josh Allen who's seventy one point seven percent.
Speaker 4: So what what's got to happen here is Dak needs
Speaker 4: to play like Dak and you gotta love his confidence
Speaker 4: after the game. I can't remember if we talked about
Speaker 4: it early tonight after the game against the Rams, when
Speaker 4: they were talking Jerry didn't want to poke the bear
Speaker 4: and he said, if I'm fighting a bear, go ahead
Speaker 4: and pour honey on it. Yes, So I think that
Speaker 4: was and that wasn't him bragging. I think that was
Speaker 4: to kind of show his teammates, Hey, we got confidence,
Speaker 4: we can do this right right, We're not tippy toeing
Speaker 4: uh into this game.
Speaker 2: We talked yesterday now that that that front had that
Speaker 2: those those guards. Yeah, that little little threesome right there.
Speaker 4: They got to play.
Speaker 2: They gotta play. They got to keep him out of
Speaker 2: his face, because you're not gonna be I don't care
Speaker 2: who the quarterback is. First of all, he's not tall
Speaker 2: enough to see above all of these guys coming in
Speaker 2: his face, right. And if you got them coming around
Speaker 2: the outside behind him, and then they are in his
Speaker 2: face as well, there is no escape but to try
Speaker 2: and go retreat even further, and we've seen that it
Speaker 2: doesn't work. He's better when these guys are stifled at
Speaker 2: their line and he can go out this way or
Speaker 2: escape that way. That's when. That's how we see Dak
Speaker 2: at his best, and he's been conscious of that lately.
Speaker 2: You can have it there for you all the time,
Speaker 2: but lately I'll go I don't know who talked to him,
Speaker 2: but Dak has been conscious of that escaping Okay, that route,
Speaker 2: he's been conscious of that as he keeps his eyes
Speaker 2: down the field. He didn't have that in San Francisco.
Speaker 2: He still could have escaped, but as he did escape,
Speaker 2: he didn't seem to be in tune to his receivers
Speaker 2: down the field. I don't know what they've been working on.
Speaker 2: But he not just Seeee Lamb, but all the receivers
Speaker 2: Tony Pollack included. They seem to be able to find
Speaker 2: open space while dak is escaping.
Speaker 4: One of the neat drill. And I didn't see it
Speaker 4: as much this summer as much as I saw it
Speaker 4: last summer. They would when they were in offense, they
Speaker 4: would call a scrambling session. So basically you take the
Speaker 4: snap and you kind of sit there for a while
Speaker 4: and then you start scrambling and then your wide receivers
Speaker 4: got to scramble with you. And that was one of
Speaker 4: the things.
Speaker 2: It has to be effort. Yeah, I don't care one person,
Speaker 2: three people that it has to be a coordinator coordinate
Speaker 2: effort on what are you going to do CD to
Speaker 2: find my whole for us? If I'm do Michael Gallop
Speaker 2: to find the whole for us? If I'm going this way,
Speaker 2: you want to come come to the sideline. I don't
Speaker 2: want to go back to the middle too often, you know,
Speaker 2: So you try to be get open, but you want
Speaker 2: to be safe about where you get open because the
Speaker 2: defenders are smart too.
Speaker 4: And you know Washington. The Eagles beat Washington in this
Speaker 4: past week thirty eight thirty one. So Sam Hall through
Speaker 4: for four touchdowns against that defense, So they've got to
Speaker 4: be somewhat thinking we're pretty susceptible. Well, I'm to the past.
Speaker 8: I mentioned yesterday too. So the Eagles secondary has they've
Speaker 8: given up twelve touchdowns this season. That's at a ninety
Speaker 8: six point nine percentage rate, So that's twentieth in the league.
Speaker 8: So if you are giving up you know that amount
Speaker 8: of touchdowns, and like we saw with Washington, there's an opportunity.
Speaker 8: It's just a matter of fact of Dak being able
Speaker 8: to get the ball out and get somebody that is open.
Speaker 2: Are they a good running team? A running defense?
Speaker 4: They were? Where's that at here? They were eighth against
Speaker 4: no first against the run.
Speaker 2: I was going to say first against the.
Speaker 4: Run with those twenty six against the pass. Yeah, so
Speaker 4: maybe you just say, no sense banging my head against
Speaker 4: the wall trying to run. Let me just go against Tapa.
Speaker 2: Remember Tapa come away.
Speaker 4: And we will continue here on mix shots. We've got
Speaker 4: our picks and picks to click coming up next.

Speaker 4: Oh it's gone. I walked in. I walked into CVS
Speaker 4: this morning to get something, and the last time I
Speaker 4: was in there they had all the skeletons for Halloween.
Speaker 7: Think now, oh, it's all Christmas.
Speaker 4: Now it's a Christmas. We just skipped it. We just
Speaker 4: skipped it, right, There was no turkeys in the CVS.
Speaker 2: What's out?
Speaker 4: You just, I know, be careful.
Speaker 7: Christmas starts earlier every year.
Speaker 4: All right, Well, we should probably get going on our
Speaker 4: picks and picks to click. Bill was supposed to check in,
Speaker 4: but I'm sure he's uh up to his knees and
Speaker 4: parade right now.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I gotta say we we should go over
Speaker 2: last time, last week's pick to click.
Speaker 7: We can't we have it right here?
Speaker 2: I bet you do. Miss.
Speaker 4: By the way, not only is he the NFC Special
Speaker 4: Teams Player of the Week, he ended up getting the
Speaker 4: NFC Special Teams Player of the Month award.
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 7: That's great.
Speaker 2: So Savannah, you picked you had? That was your pick
Speaker 2: to click right there? That was your guy, That was
Speaker 2: your guy, Spags, you had Fouler.
Speaker 4: I didn't show that that didn't work out?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Bell? I had Bill out there, but he didn't
Speaker 2: force a fumble, but he was he was who the bill?
Speaker 2: Have you had that?
Speaker 4: Bell had a good game? He had like seven tackles?
Speaker 2: Yeah he didn't for we had to force I have
Speaker 2: for Yeah, come.
Speaker 4: Here, and who got the score closest?
Speaker 2: Well, Bill thirty seven.
Speaker 4: Well we won't tell him, no, we won't since he's
Speaker 4: not he's not here, he doesn't he doesn't get clicks
Speaker 4: to pack. Well, Savannah, do you want to start us
Speaker 4: off or do you want.
Speaker 2: To use you go first step back, Savannah, all Right,
Speaker 2: I am looking at since I've been talking about him
Speaker 2: all week and how he needs to protect himself and
Speaker 2: how he has been protecting himself last two games. I'm
Speaker 2: looking at Dak being my pick to click guy. I'm
Speaker 2: looking at him having two touchdowns passing and one rushing touchdown.
Speaker 2: He's been using legs a whole lot these days. He
Speaker 2: understands that that's his way of survival, so he's he
Speaker 2: trusts his lineman, but only so far because he knows
Speaker 2: he's going to have to escape. So that's why I
Speaker 2: have the one rushing that he's going to have. All Right,
Speaker 2: And I look at the score, and I know I'm
Speaker 2: giving that defense a lot of credit, but I think
Speaker 2: we're going to expose Hurts for his lack of good
Speaker 2: passing ability this year. Thirty to twenty.
Speaker 9: Cowboys, all right, thirty to twenty Cowboys Europe.
Speaker 8: Savannah, Okay, I am going to go with Michael Gallup
Speaker 8: from Mike Day.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 8: Yes, Now, I know that there's been many conversations about
Speaker 8: mister Gallup not doing the most in some of these games. Yes,
Speaker 8: ever since I think that his time is coming, and
Speaker 8: I think it will be on Sunday.
Speaker 7: I think he's going to.
Speaker 8: Get the ball more, finally get some yards, and I
Speaker 8: believe he's going to get at least a touchdown this game.
Speaker 8: So I'm going to go with Michael Gallup for my
Speaker 8: click to pick, and I'm going with the Cowboys twenty
Speaker 8: seven to twenty all right, And so you got me.
Speaker 4: A pick for Bill? No, Bill, he's out, he's out,
Speaker 4: all right, here we go. My pick to click is
Speaker 4: going to be DeMarcus Lawrence. I think they will get
Speaker 4: after Hurts, and not only get after Hurts, but do
Speaker 4: a good job of getting some pressure on their running game.
Speaker 4: And as we know, it's not all about the sacks.
Speaker 4: DeMarcus Lawrence pretty good at playing the road. So I'm
Speaker 4: gonna go with him, and I'm gonna go with Cowboys
Speaker 4: thirty one the Eagles twenty four. Okay, And by time
Speaker 4: we get through next week, we're gonna have a tie
Speaker 4: first in the NFC East. So yeah, I just think,
Speaker 4: you know my and some of my reasoning is last
Speaker 4: year they split right right, Eagles beat the Cowboys with
Speaker 4: Cooper Rush, and then the Cowboys beat the Eagles without
Speaker 4: Jalen Hurts exactly and so this is the rubber match,
Speaker 4: the one that I was pulling for in the playoffs
Speaker 4: last year, and the Cowboys didn't get there. And then
Speaker 4: Philadelphia ends up beating San Francisco, which beat the Cowboys,
Speaker 4: but they ran out of quarterbacks, ran out of guys
Speaker 4: that could throw the ball in that NFC title game.
Speaker 2: And what I remember about the difference between when we
Speaker 2: played San Francisco versus when Philly played San Francisco, we
Speaker 2: couldn't do anything with their defensive line. We couldn't do
Speaker 2: anything they will run or pass. They were giving us
Speaker 2: all kind of hill. Oh yeah, and I recall the
Speaker 2: first drive by Philadelphia against San Francisco. I saw all
Speaker 2: kind of holes opening up. They did not have a
Speaker 2: problem blocking that forty nine the defensive line at all.
Speaker 2: So to me that obviously that's where it's going to be.
Speaker 2: The game's going to be warm there. But you have
Speaker 2: to show some type of competence against this defensive line
Speaker 2: to have any chance of winning this game.
Speaker 4: Right, No, absolutely, And they're awfully strong defensive line. So
Speaker 4: if they can at least hold them up so Dak
Speaker 4: can operate in the pocket, I think if Washington score
Speaker 4: thirty one, I think the Cowboys should be able to
Speaker 4: score thirty one and this will be a great, I
Speaker 4: think game for the fans to watch. And before we close,
Speaker 4: we're going to go back to one more Jerry Jones
Speaker 4: quote about the Rangers and what they did for their
Speaker 4: fans by being able to win this World series on
Speaker 4: mix shots.
Speaker 8: Maybe well just passed by.
Speaker 2: Up the program.
Speaker 4: Hopefully somebody is in there listening to me right now.
Speaker 2: Did they notice they did?
Speaker 4: Jazz knew it was coming.
Speaker 2: She's scrambling right now, I can hear.
Speaker 4: Right, yeah, trying to find it.
Speaker 2: Hell, what did he say?
Speaker 4: Well, basically he was talking about how sports inspires people, uh,
Speaker 4: and and that you know, for for a fan base, uh,
Speaker 4: it's huge to be able to uh celebrate like this
Speaker 4: and talked about how in his his career that sports
Speaker 4: has meant so much to him that it's helped him
Speaker 4: get where he is today.
Speaker 2: It was he was he was a national champion, were
Speaker 2: national champions at Arkansas? Yeah?
Speaker 4: So yeah, it was, it was. It was really good. Unfortunately,
Speaker 4: I think we're running out of time right now. I'm
Speaker 4: kind of scared to end the show because don't we
Speaker 4: usually end it with no, no, no, We don't end
Speaker 4: it with anything, Okay, just me saying okay, thanks, thanks
Speaker 4: for being with us. So Jazz, is it okay if
Speaker 4: we in mix shots here this? Oh so it's okay?
Speaker 4: All right, Well, well we'll go out strong here, Cowboys.
Speaker 6: Rough times that you have with Spore, everybody has, everybody.
Speaker 6: You can't really play unless you have some hard times.
Speaker 6: But it is the absolute glory hole to have that
Speaker 6: elusive win, to be the champion. And I'm so proud
Speaker 6: for every fan is out here that's edded that way
Speaker 6: and the ones that are at home. I'm proud for
Speaker 6: every one of them. And it has really been, I
Speaker 6: might say, one of the reasons that I wanted to
Speaker 6: spend my every day in life in the world of sport.
Speaker 6: Obviously there are a lot of hard days, a lot
Speaker 6: of days that didn't go your way, but I've always
Speaker 6: known that given a chance, there's millions and millions of
Speaker 6: people that would like to be in your shoes. If
Speaker 6: you're a participant, so that gives your responsibility to it.
Speaker 6: So bottom line is this, I'm so proud for our fans.
Speaker 6: I know are players, the players of the Rangers feel honored,
Speaker 6: the management, the whole team feels honored to have this
Speaker 6: kind of support, but they earned it. That's hats off
Speaker 6: to them, and it is inspirational life. There's no way
Speaker 6: I could have in any way done some of the
Speaker 6: things that I've gotten a chance to do, as lucky
Speaker 6: as I've been, There's no way I can could have
Speaker 6: done it without the inspiration of sports.
Speaker 2: Go Cowboys.
