But 22 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: I always like this guy named Stepfret Williams. I just 23 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: think that's a cool name to say. Remember, we're just 24 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,040 Speaker 1: we're just not going to pay respects to the legend 25 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: Rico Gathers. We're just gonna do that. I wonder where 26 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: you're going with King Gats. That's where you come in, 27 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: because I don't even think about him at all. How 28 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,479 Speaker 1: how he's one of the most legendary figures in cowboys history. 29 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: I was one of your You were actually all on 30 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: board with getting him, like you were all over the 31 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: Baylor guy. And yeah, you were all over that. Yes 32 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: you are. You were excited, you like you were like 33 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: that idea, they need to get him. My tongue is 34 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: planted firmly in my cheek. But like I mean, as 35 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: far as sixth round picks who caught like less than 36 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: fifteen career passes go, he's probably the most memorable of 37 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: all time. Yeah, I think Marty by two, that's not 38 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: eighty Church just we are distractable. Yeah, anyway, what a shame, 39 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: What a shame? You are another big Reco Gathers fan. 40 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: Weren't you? I don't know what a fan. I it's 41 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: a shame that we didn't get to see them try 42 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: him out at another position. That's why I say, what 43 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: do you want to see him at tackle? I would 44 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: have tried him ound, yeah, something on the defensive line, 45 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: just to see why not a defensive offensive line. I 46 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: would want to try him the defensive line. Okay, back then, Okay, 47 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: I was like, put him out there. He's not. He 48 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: definitely hasn't. I'm having I'm having flashbacks to like actual 49 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: shows that we did, Like we don't. We don't need 50 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: to talk about this. We don't need to talk. I'm sorry. 51 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: I'm sorry for bringing Ricot into boxing or something. I 52 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 1: don't know what he's doing. I was just Hardy should 53 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: have been playing basketball overseas. That's what he should have 54 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: been doing. Good point, make a hell of a living 55 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: in Grease, Turkey, Italy, Spain. Don't have to be an 56 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: NBA to make money in basketball. Yeah, all right, let's 57 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: move on. Let is real quick, real quick. I'm sorry, Dave, 58 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: give me an update on Tony Pollard. Where are we 59 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: standing with his injury? Tony Pollard's gonna try to push 60 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: it at practice today. They're practicing in shells. This they're 61 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: doing a real practice today after just kind of a 62 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: you know, shorts and shirts yesterday. This is a real practice. 63 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: They're outside. He's gonna give it a go. Who knows 64 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: what that means. Take everything you hear from Mike with 65 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: a grain of salt when it comes to injuries and 66 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: stuff like that. We'll see what the injury report says. 67 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: I mean, he's been out there this whole time, so 68 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: like we're gonna go out to practice, he's gonna be 69 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: out there working with britt He's gonna be jogging around, 70 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: and I mean, we have no idea what he's going 71 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: to do in the team period. We'll see what the 72 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,119 Speaker 1: injury report says. It'd be interesting. I'm interested to see 73 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: what happens this weekend with regards to him and with 74 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: Zeke to some degree. And Nick, you weren't here yesterday. 75 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,039 Speaker 1: We did talk a little bit about Zeke and his injury, 76 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: and he says yesterday when he talked to the met 77 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: he's actually feeling like he's got a little bit of 78 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: his explosiveness back. What are your thoughts, Darren, do you think, 79 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: do you think that maybe the Cowboys, for the better 80 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: of him and for the better of the team, should 81 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: take a step that's kind of drastic and sit him down. Well, 82 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: he didn't look explosive to me. I mean he felt 83 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: he felt I guess he said he felt good. I 84 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: was listening to him, going where was that? Like? I mean, 85 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: he was okay, but he was also limping around a 86 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: whole lot now he was. It's a weird injury to 87 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: me because they keep running him and using him and 88 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: he doesn't look right. And yeah, I think sitting him 89 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: might might be. I mean, it's one of those things 90 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: where they're not talking about it at all, like it's fine, 91 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: it's fine, fine, And as soon as they, you know, 92 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: clintse the division, he'll be out, I think, And I 93 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: think that's a smart thing to do. Would you would 94 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 1: you make that this week? Though? Would you make that 95 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: decision relative to what's happening with Tony, Like would you 96 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: say I would only sit him if Tony is back, 97 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 1: or would you say, hey, you got to sit him. 98 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: It's a it's a good thing to do regardless. Yeah, 99 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: I don't want to go into any game without either 100 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: one of them. No, thank you, but no, I mean 101 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: that's crazy talk. Corey Clement played pretty well, all things considered, 102 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 1: But like Corey Clement and Edo Smith and Jaquan Hardy, 103 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: I mean, that was the argument that that I think 104 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: that Isaiah was making yesterdays. He was like, I'd sit 105 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: him both if I think. I know that's what he thinks, 106 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: and I disagree. I mean he did, I said yesterday 107 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: he made a good point. But I mean, I feel 108 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: much better with at least one of those guys available. 109 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you have a you have a chance. Like 110 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, though, you have to get away from 111 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: the rams. You just you do. You gotta keep winning. 112 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: You gotta get to the third seat. And you can 113 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: get to the third seat if the pack you control it. Yeah, 114 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: you can. You know, Packers or even Arizona. Now Tampa 115 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: doesn't look likely. They're not gonna lose two times. I 116 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: don't believe in Arizona. All you need to do is 117 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: just beat Arizona. Beat Arizona. You when you're your games, 118 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: you're in the third. Thing he's saying, you probably can't 119 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 1: get a whole lot higher than right, No, yeah, you 120 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 1: can get can you control if Tampa is a tie 121 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: with Green Bay and Dallas, and then you get three 122 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: way tie. Then you can jump all of them. So 123 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: you can't control getting to two or one. You certainly 124 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: can control gett into three, so so control what you 125 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: can control. I would just call them the tag team 126 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: champions right there, Pollered and Z and they just tagging. 127 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: I mean, just like in a game like one one's 128 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: gonna play, one's gonna sit. But I think I'm gonna 129 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: use them that way until they're healthy, until or the 130 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: playoffs until yeah, right, all right, which one it comes first? 131 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: We're gonna go ahead and take an early break here. 132 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: We got Bucky Brooks coming up from NFL Network. He'll 133 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: join us in the second segment. We got some questions 134 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 1: for him about this matchup Cowboys versus Giants.

Bucky Brooks of NFL 196 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: Network joining us right now to talk a little Cowboys 197 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: versus Giants Let's start first with Mike Glennon Uh. He 198 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: has started the last two games for the Giants, replacing 199 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. Uh. He's only completed about fifty percent on 200 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: average of his passes. He's been sacked five times. He's 201 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: passed for under two hundred yards in both games. So 202 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: paying a scenario for me, any scenario where you think 203 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 1: this Giants offense can can get over on the Cowboys defense, 204 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: Like I feel like we had a conversation about this 205 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: like last year where we didn't think that the Giants 206 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: can do anything and it ended up being a game 207 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: in the thirties. I think for the Cowboys, if they 208 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: stay on their ps and qs, this should be an 209 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: offense that they can kind of gobble up, much like 210 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: they were able to gobble up to Washington football team 211 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: for three plus quarters last week. I think the thing 212 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: with the Giants is Freddy Kitchen takes over for Jason 213 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 1: Garrett as the play caller. They're still trying to figure 214 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: out their identity. Say Quon Barkley is not necessarily the same, 215 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: and so they're trying to put all the pieces of 216 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: the posle together. And then you have a quarterback in 217 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: Mike Lennon, who has never necessarily been a high end 218 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: consistent quarterback. And so to me, this is about just 219 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: making sure you don't give them anything cheap, don't let 220 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: the ball flow over your head. Put pressure on them, 221 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: because if you put enough pressure on Mike Glennon, eventually 222 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: he would give up the ball. He'll cough it up 223 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: and be a handful of turnovers. Day'll may all right, Becky, 224 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: A two part question number one, what has happened to 225 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: sa Quon Barkley? Like why is he not the same? 226 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: In two? Who is your favorite wrestler of all times? 227 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 1: For talking about wrestling? Well, let's start with favorite wrestl 228 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 1: of all time. I would say the American Dream Dusty 229 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: Rhodes will probably be my favorite of all time. Um, daddy, yeah, yeah, um, 230 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 1: because because everyone else loved Rick Ferren. I do have 231 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: a thing for the nature Board, but Dusty Rhodes was 232 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 1: always going for him. Uh. The reason Saint Juan Berkley 233 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: isn't the same. I won't say he's not the same, 234 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: but if you go back and look at how he 235 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: was at Penn State, he was always a bit of 236 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: a boom or bust in terms of production. It was 237 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: two yards minus game two yards three yards, fifty yard 238 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: game two yards three yards. So he he had like 239 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: a little Barry Sanders is type production in terms of 240 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: it wasn't always a steady drip. I think with the 241 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: Giants he's not the same now since the injuries. He 242 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: doesn't necessary they have the same. Verse, He's still productive 243 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 1: in Bursto can catch the rock. And then he's also 244 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: playing behind an offensive line that isn't necessarily the best. 245 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: And so when you have those factors, you do have 246 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: these inconsistent moments from a player who was taking second 247 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: overall in the draft. Buck, can you talk to me 248 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: about our guy as Zizojalari the rookie. I know we 249 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: liked him in the draft. Good player. I'm just curious 250 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: how they're using him, I'm guessing. I mean, is he 251 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: like an every down guy or at least a regular 252 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 1: member of the rotation or they using him in sub packages? 253 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: It just it seems like he's come on, I mean, 254 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: he's got seven and a a half sacks. How's he doing it? 255 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: I mean, look, he's the same going to be sort 256 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: of George. He's an active guy, very athletic, does a 257 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 1: good job with his speed. Verse and energy. They certainly 258 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 1: are mixing him in the rotation and using them with 259 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: a bunch of different ways and allowing him to go 260 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 1: get after the past. And when you really look at 261 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 1: this Giants team outside of him, he's the most dynamic defender. 262 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: Lenard Williams has been good at times. You talking about 263 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 1: Dex and Lawrence all those other guys, but they're not 264 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: necessarily that explosive energizer bunny that you typically like to 265 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 1: have within the rotation. At least Ozelaari gives them that, 266 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: and so he's been good. He's a productive on the whole. 267 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: I would say this Giants defense is the same as 268 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: they've always been. They're rock solid. They're gonna make sure 269 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: they try and take care of the running game, and 270 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: then they're going to change the coverage and do all 271 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: these other things. And you never really know what they're 272 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: going to do prior to the game because Patrick Graham 273 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: comes from the New England tree, and so every game 274 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: plan is a bit like a snowflake, so you never 275 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: get the same thing twice. Bucky, we keep talking about 276 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: the running game, the Cowboys running game with Zeke and 277 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: Paular being injury, I mean, looking at this Giants defense. 278 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: Is this a game that maybe in your eyes you 279 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: think that they could do without both of those running 280 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: backs where they sit them out this week? Well, look, man, 281 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: I think Corey Claiming played well enough that you can 282 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: entertain the possible earlier of him taking on a big 283 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: worth though he had thirteen carries I think last week, 284 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: and it was right down the middle with him and Zeke. Obviously, 285 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: like if Zeke can play, you want him to play 286 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: because what he does in the pass protecting game, he's 287 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: one of the best, if not the best, pass protected 288 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: at the running back position, and so you want to 289 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: make sure that Dak Prescott is protected. But if you 290 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: can lighten his load and not subject him to a 291 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: bunch of collisions and those things, you want to do that. 292 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: I think if Clement shows early in the game that 293 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: he kind of has it going, I think you see 294 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: the skills kind of tipping his favor in terms of 295 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: the workload. Let's talk a little bit about Layton vander Esch. 296 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: Last week, I thought he played better than he's played 297 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: in other weeks. What did you see from him and 298 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: what do you think was it possibly a situation where 299 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: maybe having Mica at lineback or having those other guys 300 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: back on the defensive line maybe helped Layton Vandersch in 301 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: some way to be a better player, more productive player 302 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: than he'd been in some of the past games. This season, Yeah, 303 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: he's a bit of a chameleon. I mean, I think 304 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: he plays better when he's surrounded by better supporting casts. 305 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: I think most players are like that, and the Cowboys 306 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: have their full confident of guys. I mean, look, the 307 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: defense has shown that it's one of the top defenses 308 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: in football. When you put de Marcus Lawrence and Randy 309 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: Gregory and Michael Parsons out there, the energy level picks 310 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: up and you see how everyone kind of raises their 311 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: level of performance. I think Laydon vander Esh was able 312 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: to do that. And then it's also a bit of 313 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: a thing where it's kind of contagious when the plays 314 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: start coming. So when you see Micauls start making a play, 315 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: you see Randy Rick and we make a play early 316 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: in the game, you see the Marcus Lawrence hustling and 317 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: Jason it kind of puts the peer fresh show on 318 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: you to kind of take your game up a notch. 319 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: I think now that everyone is back, Layden Renner's just 320 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: going to play better because one, he doesn't have as 321 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: many responsibilities on his play in terms of having to 322 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: make plays, and now he'll fall into some plays because 323 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: he's just running and hustling and making and just kind 324 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: of fall in the ball. Michael Parsons, We've talked about 325 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: how you know he's can play different spots, but I 326 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: believe he ranks fifth and sacks and ninety ninth and 327 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: pass rushes. When when did the Cowboys start getting some 328 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: criticism if it's not already of like, all right, you 329 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: probably just need to rush the passer more, or do 330 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: you think that he wouldn't be as effective if he 331 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: did rush it more. He probably wouldn't be as effective 332 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: if he was a one hundred percent pass rusher. I 333 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: think what you have now is you actually have the 334 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: best of both worlds because what they're able to do 335 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,919 Speaker 1: and what they did against the Watchington football team is 336 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 1: they were able to isolate him on the guard when 337 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: you have Randy Gregor on one side, DeMarcus Lawrence on 338 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: the other side, and you do some of those five 339 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: old pass rushers where you get five guys coming and 340 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 1: you're able to isolate one on one matches, where now 341 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: you can have Michael Parsons go over wall, though, and 342 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 1: we're seeing that his quickness, his burst, his hand skills 343 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: allows him to get to the quarterback, and so I 344 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 1: think it's best to send him from the second level 345 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 1: because he can pick and choose who he wants to 346 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: go against, and it makes it harder for the offense 347 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: to slide multiple blockers to him. And so I think 348 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: the way that using I think the way dan Quinn 349 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: has using them is perfect, and I think it's one 350 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 1: of those things where as they get closer and closer 351 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 1: to the postseason, I think you'll see even more creativity 352 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: from dan Quinn in terms of how he unleashes number 353 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: eleven because as you begin to focus on number eleven, 354 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: number ninety and number ninety four begin to get off 355 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: and then that's when it becomes a lot of fun 356 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: to watch the Cowboys defense because they have it going 357 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: up front. I get that you literally just told me 358 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: Patrick Graham's going to change this thing up, and it 359 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 1: makes it hard to predict the game plan, but it 360 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 1: seems like a good guess, based on the way teams 361 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 1: have been playing the Cowboys, that they're going to clog 362 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 1: the field, try to take away deep shots for the 363 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: passing game, and with the running game not working the 364 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: way that it hasn't been working, which I mean, maybe 365 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: they get it going, that would be great, But if 366 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: it's not, what would your approach be to getting things 367 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 1: going underneath? Because that really seems like it's been the 368 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: problem for the Cowboys. I mean, do you have a 369 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: tip for how they might do that better. I think 370 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: it's not just Patrick Graham. I think it's the league 371 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: why trend where you're seeing more teams kind of park 372 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: their safeties in the parking lot and say we're gonna 373 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: take away the deep ball, and more teams are also 374 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 1: being willing to give up again see rushing yards because 375 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: it's a slower death. You're not going nickel and diamond 376 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: with three and four yard runs and drive the length 377 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: of the field and score a bunch of points. You 378 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: may control the ball, but you won't score a lot 379 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 1: of points leaning on the running game. And so for 380 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, I believe man, Look, they're players, Ceedee Lamb 381 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: and Michael Gallup and Marie Cooper. They're really good catching 382 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 1: run playmakers, and so what I would like to see 383 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: them do are more things that get them the ball 384 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: on the move, crossing routes, things where they can kind 385 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: of catch it, like I know they like to run 386 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: slants in those things, but other things where eighty eight 387 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: and nineteen can get it on the move and get 388 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: up the field. And so it requires a level of patients. 389 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: I think Dad has to be more patient. I think 390 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: he's been impatient trying to go big play, honey. I 391 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: think this has to be a thing where, look, man, 392 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: let's just kind of if we're playing Dominos, Nickel and Dost, 393 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: let's five and tend them down the field and then 394 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: eventually the big plays happened, But you don't have to 395 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: force it down the field because that's when the interceptions 396 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: and the bad stuff happens. Is this a week where 397 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: you're still okay with saying a win is a win 398 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 1: type of win? Or mentally for the Cowboys offense, is 399 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: this a week where they have to get out there 400 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: and actually be dominant and kind of start clicking this 401 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: time around. I mean, ideally you just want to win, 402 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: but I think here's where we have to begin to 403 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: kind of come to grips with like, as Cowboys followers, 404 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: maybe the defense leads the way for this team to 405 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: go deep into the postseason. So maybe Mike McCarthy has 406 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,479 Speaker 1: to talk to Kellen Moore and they have to get 407 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,199 Speaker 1: together and say, look, the best way for us to 408 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: play is maybe a little more complimentary approach. Maybe we 409 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: scale it back and no thought all over the earth. 410 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: Maybe we are a little more conservative. Maybe we do 411 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 1: punt and let the defense create plays, because when you 412 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 1: have a team that is second in takeaways and then 413 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: generating takeaways each and every week, maybe you don't have 414 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: to force and press the issue as much on offense. 415 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 1: And I think we came into the year thinking that 416 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: the offense was going to protect the defense. Maybe it's 417 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: flipped in the middle of the year where the defense 418 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: is kind of protecting the offense and you have to 419 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,719 Speaker 1: kind of change and call the game accordingate and real 420 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: quick before we get your prediction for the game. I 421 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 1: just want to get it. I'm just interested to know. 422 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: Let's assume you have a vote, and you might actually 423 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 1: have a vote for defensive player of the year. If 424 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: you have to cast that vote right now, with what 425 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: you've seen through thirteen games, who's your defensive player of 426 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 1: the year. I mean, I feel like it's a loaded 427 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: question because Michael Parsons has done everything that you want 428 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: to do. When you throw his numbers, you threw his 429 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: numbers up against everybody like I mean, look, the production 430 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: is ridiculous, sack production, tackles, quarterback, pressures, everything that he's 431 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: doing like, you just don't see players do that, particularly 432 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: a first year player. And so when people get mad 433 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: about the comparisons to Lawrence Taylor, it's not about their 434 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: playing style being similar. It's about the impact. I believe. 435 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 1: Now you're going into games and you're having to say 436 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: where is number eleven at? We got to make sure 437 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: that we have eyes on him. That's the impact and 438 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 1: to me, that's the value that a defensive Player of 439 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,199 Speaker 1: the Year brings. And look, man, I'm gonna say this, 440 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: Like we talked about Michael Parsons to the draft and 441 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 1: it was how should they I don't know, there's another value. 442 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: I think they have lucked up and got a player 443 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: that is one for the ages. He is a dominant player, 444 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: even better than we ever could have imagined, considered he 445 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: didn't play his last year Penn State. Imagine if he 446 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 1: had played and he actually had didn't have to shake 447 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: off the rust. I mean, he is a phenomenal player 448 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: he would have been picking. I think anybody could have 449 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: expected he would have been picked number one or two. Right, 450 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 1: he would not have been there for them at that point. Yeah, 451 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,919 Speaker 1: I think. I think Bucky's point when he was answering 452 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: the question before you asked it, when he was said 453 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 1: that now the Cowboys can lean on the defense maybe 454 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 1: instead of the offense. Just think about how weird that 455 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,400 Speaker 1: would have sounded in the offseason or even last year. 456 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: I think that reason alone is why he should be 457 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year, because he has changed the 458 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: culture of the team just his presence alone. All right, 459 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: Bucky Man, we'll let you go out. Know, you gotta 460 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: get out of here. We appreciate you. John Us.

They don't they 521 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 1: don't understand their own name. You know, all the rule 522 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: I don't know all the stuff they're trying to factor 523 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: in wells because we can vote for a president in 524 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: one day usually, but it does get it can't take 525 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: the time to figure out that's the plan at least, 526 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: And uh, yeah, you're right. I mean it is kind 527 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: of weird when you think about, well, this is the 528 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 1: time where the games really matter. Let's put all the 529 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: division games at the end. Let's let's let them go 530 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 1: vote down. Let's let the cream rise to the top. 531 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 1: They can't, they can't have a digital iron Man announced 532 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: the names on on Disney Plus at eight pm on 533 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 1: Tuesday night. If they don't get it done now, you know, 534 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: they got to get all their graphics in order and everything. 535 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 1: That's true, sorry, kind of true. Well, what is your 536 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: question though, because you were gonna ask you, well, I 537 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 1: was gonna I was gonna ask you, guys, if you 538 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 1: could only pick one offensive and one defensive player for 539 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl this year from the Cowboys who they be. 540 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 1: I think it's pretty clear. But I want to see 541 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 1: what Mica defense easy done. And that's the I'm sorry, Trayvon, 542 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: Sorry Trayvon, but that's interesting, Like Trayvon's like leading the 543 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: league in interception. I said, I'm sorry, it's a testament. 544 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: What more do you want you're making me? You said one, Yeah, 545 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 1: Mica is the one offense. I would probably say, Zach, 546 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: Just go with Zack, and that's the easy one. That's 547 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: the Yeah. Just that's a cop out, is what that is. 548 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean those are the two well I'm 549 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 1: thinking of that's not a cop I mean, well, it's 550 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 1: just I mean there are guy, there are plenty of 551 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 1: guys on offense that have had good seasons, but they've 552 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: just nos dived so much in the way. Who you 553 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: think is gonna go? Let's quit answering around me. Who's 554 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 1: gonna make the Pro Bowl? Who do we think? Let's 555 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 1: just let's just see. I'll tell you who. I'll be 556 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: disappointed if they don't think there's gonna be eight guys 557 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: make it? You do, Okay, I don't even know. I 558 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 1: just that's just my number eight. You just threw out 559 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: a number. I don't think Dak. I don't think Dak's 560 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 1: gonna make it. No, I kind of don't think. I 561 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: don't think Rogers Brady and Kyler Murray. Yeah, now you 562 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 1: could still make it. Yeah, but we're talking about when 563 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 1: they announced the team. It's not six weeks from now 564 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 1: when somebody opts out K has a better chance than Dak. 565 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: He hasn't been playing well. I don't think, honestly, I 566 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: don't think either one of them are going to make it. 567 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: That's my I know it's only a third of the formula, 568 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: but Zeke was the leading vote getter among NFC running backs, 569 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: ranks third and rushing right now behind. I think Zeke 570 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: makes it now. Four Nett's having a good year, in 571 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: Connor's having a great year. Two just doesn't have a 572 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: lot of numbers, but it's got touched it. He's got 573 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: a twenty, not that many. He's got Zeke, Tyring, zach Um, 574 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: cd C, I think cd cd Um, Micah trey Von. 575 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: I would like, I see, I would like to make it. 576 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: I would like. I think he deserves it, but it's 577 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: so much about name power, and nobody outside of the 578 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: Cowboys fan base really knows that what he's doing. That's 579 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: also where I think the other two thirds of the vote, 580 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: which is coaches, players, That's why I hope, I really 581 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: hope Jayron makes it, and Randy deserves to make it, 582 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 1: and it's the NFL's fault if he doesn't. Yeh Yeah hopefully, yeah, 583 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: hopefully the coaches and players aspect overrides the fan vote 584 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: in that regard. I mean, honestly, the guy who deserves 585 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 1: it is just as much as anybody really is, is Anger. 586 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: Brian Inger has been great. Numbers are outstanding. His numbers 587 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: are on pace to actually break Cowboy franchise records. Really yeah, 588 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: net average. I mean he's been he's been phenomenal this year. 589 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: It's just, you know, you don't think of offense. It's 590 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: supposed to be good like this. Who cares about the putter. 591 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: But the putter has flipped the field several times for 592 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: them this year, and I think he's been really good. 593 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: He's been awesome. I just sorry, I don't pay enough 594 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,479 Speaker 1: attention to punters to know how he compares to some 595 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: other guys. In the end, wouldn't rule out Schultz either, 596 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 1: I mean tight ends got numbers. Sorry, sometimes what's happening 597 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: in my brain kind of just shows on my face. 598 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,479 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Derek and I are Dalton Schultz fantasy owners, 599 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 1: and we disagree. We disagree. I'm not very happy with 600 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: him right now. I know I am the same. And 601 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: that's not fair, I know, because you know, players don't 602 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: they don't. They didn't pick themselves for your fantasy team. 603 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 1: You picked them, so don't be mad at them. But 604 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: just he looked he was looking like the steel of 605 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: the year. You know, there's always a player that's like 606 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: picked him off waivers and he won me a championship. 607 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: That's what Dalton Schultz looked like at like Halloween, and 608 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 1: I would's crazy. It's like, I'm still so amazed at 609 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: how quickly things can change. Like how we were talking 610 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: about the Cowboys offense beginning of the year the first 611 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: half of the season. Two were there are now. I 612 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: mean I think that then back then, we would have 613 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: been like, Okay, who doesn't make the program. But we 614 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: didn't have cow bites two years ago because yours would 615 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,239 Speaker 1: have been like, well, he needs to be cut, and 616 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, agreed, Yeah we all thought. I 617 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: mean I didn't think he was gonna make the team. 618 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: You know, I went back and watched the game. Yea, um, 619 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: this last game, and yes, the pick was terrible by Dak. 620 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: You don't need to be side arm that interceptions on 621 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: him On Schultz, Helts just stops. He's supposed to keep going, 622 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: keep clearing. That's the play. He just sits and stopped. 623 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: But even at that, it still would have been an 624 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: intercept if he kept running. Like the way Dak threw 625 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: that ball, I just don't think he saw the line. 626 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: He didn't see him, but Choltz had to. I mean, 627 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna throw it, he's gonna he no, I don't. 628 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: I don't agree if you go back and watch it, 629 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,719 Speaker 1: because if Schultz keeps running, then there's no way Holcom 630 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: catches him. That I noticed that. And then also I still, 631 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: for the life of me, has anyone figured out why 632 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 1: on the play that La l got in the fight, 633 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: why that wasn't a first down for the Cowboys because 634 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 1: Marker caught the ball. Yeah, they called it, and then 635 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 1: the ref said after the play seventy one, so it 636 00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: should have been first down. And if you said that 637 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: in the press box, and I got a lot of 638 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 1: people on Twitter hid and be like, hey man, why 639 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: why didn't they get the first down? And nobody really 640 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: talks talk about it. He caught it ated to catch everything. 641 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 1: We talk about it a lot, but like when you're up, 642 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: especially especially at FedEx where you can't see anything else, 643 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: and like, nope, nobody's helping us, Like we don't have 644 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: the graphics and the play by play, so barely get 645 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: that down in distance. Yeah, that's why it's it's a struggle, 646 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: but we do get it there. But when people say 647 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: and then they say it wrong and then they come 648 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 1: back and say, no, that's there's got to be a 649 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: better way. There's just got to be a better way 650 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: than that, because honestly, I feel like I'm the reason 651 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 1: why Jordan Lewis got that force fumble. I really do, 652 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: because I said to Joe. I was like, Joe, oh yeah, 653 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: they're calling a force fumble on curse or somebody, you know, 654 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: like that's not right. Yeah, And then Joe told him 655 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: and they were like, oh yeah, So I mean it's 656 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 1: just it's like we look at the stats. I mean, 657 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: this is the Bible. Every every Monday, We're like, here's 658 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: the stats, and what I realize how they actually he 659 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: comes up. But I did find the best job in 660 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 1: the NFL. There's one lady in there. Her whole job, 661 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: the whole day. All she did was say shotgun, shotgun, shotgun. 662 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, that is the best job in the NFL. 663 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: So easy, Hey, honey, while you do how was your day? 664 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: How was the game? Shotgun? Just shotgun? That's all she 665 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: has to say. Probably would have been a lot easier 666 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: fifteen years ago, you know, probably right? You only say 667 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: it once every game? Yeah, maybe five times a game? 668 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 1: All right, real quick? I did want to go a 669 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: little deeper on that tight end discussion though, I was 670 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: David and I were talking about this yesterday evening and 671 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: check this out. In Week five versus the Giants, Scholtz 672 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: let the team with six receptions. He also had seventy 673 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 1: nine yards on the six receptions. In the first six 674 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: games of the season, he averaged five receptions a game. 675 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: Over the last seven, he has averaged three. His production 676 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: is down. I don't even know. I think it's targets 677 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: are down as well. I don't know the numbers on 678 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: those right off, fan, but I'm pretty sure they are 679 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 1: down as well. What do you think is happening with 680 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: the tight end? Is this an issue of um or 681 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: A better way to put it is is this a symptom? 682 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: Or is this more of a cause of why the 683 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense isn't clicking? It could be Gallop, you know, 684 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 1: it could be you know, having your your past catching 685 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: options are you know, now he's he's taking some of that. 686 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: And I don't mean he's taken the same role because 687 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 1: they don't play the same position, but you know from 688 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 1: formation and where they line him out, that could be 689 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,879 Speaker 1: one of them. Um, I don't I don't really know, 690 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: Like if something else was was awesome then you could 691 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: be like, well, to pick your poison and they're gonna 692 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,240 Speaker 1: take this. But but nothing, nothing, nothing else is awesome, 693 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 1: which is that's it's incredibly frustrating because like simple math 694 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: suggests that one of these guys should be getting great 695 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 1: get getting great looks, like okay, if you're gonna clog 696 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 1: and cover and double and take away the receivers, like 697 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: Dalton Sheltz should be getting great looks against linebackers and 698 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 1: whoever else, and it's just not happening. And I'm I 699 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:58,879 Speaker 1: wasn't on the show on Monday, so I didn't get 700 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 1: to bring this up, But like, why why does it 701 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz should be getting the looks that Zeke has 702 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: been getting, like throwing a wheel route to the fricking 703 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: goalpost for Zeke, who's been he's had good hands this year, 704 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 1: But why are you throwing that ball to any running back, 705 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: especially hobbled Zeke, Like they took like three shots down 706 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: field to him in that game. And I get it, 707 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: you go where your read takes you, but like why 708 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 1: even like throw that out? Why are like why are 709 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 1: you sending Zeke right the whole different thing? He's hobbled, well, 710 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 1: not only that. But like and like I said, Zeke 711 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 1: has made some great catches this year, But why are 712 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: you asking him to make this like alligator arm type 713 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: of catch? Like that's you don't ask You didn't ask 714 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,880 Speaker 1: Jason Witten to do that stuff, same thing. You know. 715 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 1: It's like put it in my bread basket. That's what 716 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: I do. And and you would just think that you 717 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 1: could scheme those types of looks for your tight end, 718 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,879 Speaker 1: who I would assume is not getting focused on when 719 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 1: you have three such good receivers. I don't understand it, 720 00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 1: um and I have a hard time believing that they're 721 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:04,399 Speaker 1: just like freaking eighty six is not catching a damn 722 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: ball today. It's not happen. Nobody's saying that, no offense, Dalton. 723 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,359 Speaker 1: But there's no way that that's what the meetings are 724 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,720 Speaker 1: about in the other buildings. So let me ask this question. 725 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 1: This is a question comes from Twitter from the Pragmatic Vetter. 726 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: He says, is Jarwin's present miss presents missing on this offer? 727 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: I think so? And that sounds silly to say, Now 728 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 1: you guys think so. I mean I feel like I 729 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 1: thought it was no big I became a Shultz fan 730 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,800 Speaker 1: and then forgot about Blake Jarwin. I don't think he 731 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: got answered, but whatever, gohead. But I'm saying like you 732 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,839 Speaker 1: guys started seeing what Schultz could do and then y'all 733 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 1: were all on board like, oh yeah Schultz, which yes, absolutely, 734 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,280 Speaker 1: to be fair, but I don't. I don't think Blake 735 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 1: Jarwin is the reason why the offense went from amazing 736 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 1: to not good. But they Kellen Moore loves twelve personnel. 737 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: Like the last time I looked, it was like twenty 738 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 1: eight percent of snaps. Blake Jarwin is not an amazing blocker, 739 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: especially in space, but like he's good enough at that. 740 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:07,800 Speaker 1: I think it's a big part of why the running 741 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 1: game is not as effective. You got two guys. He's 742 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: better than mcun as a block Yeah, I just I 743 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 1: think he's a better all around player. And again, he's 744 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: not this amazing. He's not Marty b He's not this 745 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 1: like amazing run blocker. But he's also a hell of 746 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 1: an athlete that you have to account for. Like, this 747 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 1: guy can hurt us downfield. He only has ten catches 748 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 1: this year, but that's his scouting report. You can go 749 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: look at it. Hey, they're playing the Giants. He's he's 750 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 1: a giant killer. I mean, so he's a guy that 751 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: we're against the Giants this year, I don't and he 752 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 1: has one touchdown? Which game was it that Schultz had 753 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 1: good numbers but sucked? Remember that? Remember the game where 754 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 1: he fumbled like four times? Oh yeah, Carolina? Maybe it 755 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:48,800 Speaker 1: was either Carolina the Giants. It was at home and 756 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 1: it was about that time, and I think it was 757 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,399 Speaker 1: Carolina and he dropped a touchdown, right, yeah, I would 758 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: be touchdown game. He fumbled like twice, the rest kept 759 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: bailing him out. It was like, I just I do 760 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 1: Jarwin's skill set it a specifically twelve personnel because it 761 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,280 Speaker 1: wasn't really starting anyway. But like, he's a plus blocker 762 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 1: who helps in the run game, who also gives you 763 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,439 Speaker 1: something a defense has to account for in the passing game. 764 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,359 Speaker 1: I do think that they miss him. I don't think 765 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,040 Speaker 1: that's why they have forgotten how to do their jobs, 766 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 1: but I think it's a sneaky loss. I think what 767 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: I was just gonna say, what's weird is with the 768 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 1: struggles that Dak has been currently having. We've seen in 769 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 1: the past where when the Cows didn't have this group 770 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: of wide receivers be this great or all together. We've 771 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,760 Speaker 1: seen them rely on the tight end position and how 772 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 1: good that combination there helps Dak and he had he 773 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: has found success in the past relying on the tight 774 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 1: end and then now that you see what's happening to me, 775 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 1: that position has become so forgettable. Like I'm watching the 776 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 1: game and there are so many other things happening that 777 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,319 Speaker 1: I don't even think about, Oh, what's the tight end 778 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,400 Speaker 1: do and where is he? Like it doesn't even pop 779 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: in my head because I'm too busy looking at the 780 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 1: old line or the running game is in work gold, 781 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 1: here's Dye running and then there's not a catch happening 782 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 1: or whatever. It's just to be on his art times 783 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,839 Speaker 1: that he's just I forget that there's even such thing 784 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 1: as a tight end position. I can't tell you a 785 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: good moment from the tight end position in the last 786 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 1: like five weeks probably, And he had a decent number 787 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 1: of catches in the New Orleans game, but I just 788 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 1: don't remand the Raiders, Yeah, he played well against the Raiders. 789 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: I think he picked up some third downs. I mean 790 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: was that See that doesn't register with me. It was 791 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: more of a great pass you know by Dak. So yeah, 792 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 1: is there is there a chance. I don't even remember 793 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 1: what Jarlin's injury was. Is he out for a year? 794 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,800 Speaker 1: He's not. They're not ruling him out, but it's definitely 795 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,439 Speaker 1: one of those things where if he comes back, it's 796 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,319 Speaker 1: you're probably talking about like end of the year, maybe 797 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 1: even playoffs for him to be available at COVID too. 798 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 1: That's he missed two weeks of his rehab and that's unfortunate. 799 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 1: He was out there, not yesterday, but last week. He 800 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 1: was out there working with Brits, I mean courts. Yeah, 801 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,399 Speaker 1: and good not in not in uniform. Yeah, but that's 802 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:10,840 Speaker 1: still good. You know he's working. He traveled to the 803 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 1: game and yeah, so that mean that that means that helps. Yeah, 804 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: he's not done, but I just like I said, you're 805 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 1: you're not. You're probably talking about Philly or maybe the playoffs. Yeah, yeah, 806 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 1: which again that's good. I give one more option. Yeah, 807 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: I know. All right, appreciate you guys. You We'll be 808 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 1: back tomorrow.
