Speaker 1: big check, even I'll beg of a check, even if
Speaker 1: it's a mechanical. I'm not doing a mechanical now, you ball,
Speaker 1: I would ride about. I got some friends I could
Speaker 1: call in for the field of his face when he
Speaker 1: see I don't know if I would mess around with
Speaker 1: a real bull, a mechanical bull, easy money, I would
Speaker 1: do it. I've done that at Billy. I would I
Speaker 1: would get on the rule a real bull before I
Speaker 1: got on a bucking horse. Yeah no, that's yeah easy,
Speaker 1: the bucking broncos. No, thank you part of that. Some
Speaker 1: guy won like a couple of million dollars at the
Speaker 1: stadium last year for riding a bull. You can win
Speaker 1: some money, Oh I got there's some money out there. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm over the size limit. Yeah, those
Speaker 1: guys are really should be like, I can't can't do
Speaker 1: any of you a little top heavy, tossed off we
Speaker 1: get to the stroy like, yeah, yeah they're a little yea,
Speaker 1: your arm would just come clean off your body. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't want any parts of that. I respect the
Speaker 1: crap out of the industry though, and the guys they
Speaker 1: get on them stripe the crap. That's some next level
Speaker 1: training to get to that point. You know, they're starting
Speaker 1: to take the training aspect a lot more seriously now
Speaker 1: because imagine, I mean, you think about going up, you
Speaker 1: think about going one on one with Aaron Donald in
Speaker 1: the NFL, and preparing and training to take on a
Speaker 1: guy like that, and even that is a feat in
Speaker 1: its own Right now, you're taking on a literal bull
Speaker 1: seven Aaron Donald's eightable into one one A well. Welcome
Speaker 1: into Talking Cowboys with the Talking Cowboy Isaiah stand back.
Speaker 1: Love the look. It looks fantastic, Sir, you're rocking it?
Speaker 1: Are you gonna wear it on special edition? Why not?
Speaker 1: I can't go for awesome? You're Patrick. Let's get some
Speaker 1: news and notes. What's going on in Cowboys Nation? Cowboys
Speaker 1: have another Trayvon in the building. So not only do
Speaker 1: we have a Tyrone Tyler, Tyler, Tyler, Coyle, t Y,
Speaker 1: now we have Trayvon and Tyvon. It's a lot of ties,
Speaker 1: a lot of teas. It's a lot of teas their partner.
Speaker 1: Cowboys claim successfully claimed Trayvon Mullin off of waivers from
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals, former second round pick of the Las
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders, and he joins the locker room as the
Speaker 1: Cowboys are really trying to figure out that cornerback situation
Speaker 1: in the wake of losing Anthony Brown, which happened a
Speaker 1: few weeks after losing Jordan Lewis Kelvin. Joseph remains the
Speaker 1: starter opposite Treyvon Digs along with the Ron Bland. However,
Speaker 1: you see the Cowboys really trying to stack some veteran
Speaker 1: insurance be at McKinsey Alexander who is also former second
Speaker 1: round pick who is also a Clemson product like Trayvon
Speaker 1: mullin is, and then of course you have Kendall Sheffield
Speaker 1: on the practice squad as well. But incomes some guys
Speaker 1: and out goes some guys. Unfortunately, the Cowboys, as expected,
Speaker 1: did move Terrence Steele to IR his season ending with
Speaker 1: the tour and ACL They did move Jonathan Hankins over
Speaker 1: as well, but Hankins is expected to return for the postseason.
Speaker 1: Per Mike McCarthy and Jerry Jones alike, the Cowboys only
Speaker 1: have four games left. Putting Hankins on IR negates him
Speaker 1: four the last four games of the regular season, so
Speaker 1: that time's up well there so as far as roster
Speaker 1: spots are concerned, and comes Trayvon Mullen, outgoes both Steel
Speaker 1: and Hankins, and that still leaves them at fifty two spots,
Speaker 1: so there's a free spot for one tie. Rod Smith
Speaker 1: was expected to take the field this Sunday per Jerry Jones,
Speaker 1: as long as everything goes well. Injury report, Jake Ferguson
Speaker 1: remains in concussion protocol after suffering the concussion in the
Speaker 1: battle against the Texans on Sunday. A very short list
Speaker 1: of injuries for the Cowboys through the Elier Wednesday walk
Speaker 1: through during so Armstrong suffered to suffered the ankle injury
Speaker 1: on the last play of the game. He left in
Speaker 1: a walking boot, but he was listed as limited and
Speaker 1: yesterday's walk through he has a very good chance to
Speaker 1: play on Sunday. Mike McCarthy says, as long as he
Speaker 1: doesn't reaggravate or there's not a setback. Jayron Curse, he's
Speaker 1: been dealing with the shoulder injury. DeMarcus Lawrence been dealing
Speaker 1: with the foot and a bunch of other stuff. They
Speaker 1: both were listed as limited participants as well. So all told,
Speaker 1: outside of the big losses that we know about Steal Hankins,
Speaker 1: for the most part, the Cowboys injury report this week
Speaker 1: is rather short. Jaguars Trevor Lawrence is dealing with a
Speaker 1: toe injury the turf toe. Did not participate, but he
Speaker 1: is wildly expected to play out. He'd have to ram
Speaker 1: that thing into a coffee table to not play on
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Maybe maybe a little more than that. Get
Speaker 1: it run over in the parking lot. Send up some
Speaker 1: black rifle. I think one can get on that coffee
Speaker 1: table now, Scott, get it to him. I think the
Speaker 1: big one for they had four players who did not participate.
Speaker 1: There was an actual practice Jaguars didn't have a walk
Speaker 1: through yesterday, so there's his more significant. You have Brandon
Speaker 1: Schurff the offensive linean keep an eye on that. Treyvon
Speaker 1: Walker pass rusher did not participate, nor did Darius Williams.
Speaker 1: Now of those four I just mentioned, Treyvon Walker seems
Speaker 1: to be the least likely to play. He suffered a
Speaker 1: high ankle sprain on Sunday. WHOA, Yes, that's a huge,
Speaker 1: huge loss for them. Yes, that's the number one overall
Speaker 1: pick in twenty two. So he suffered a high ankle
Speaker 1: sprain and it is unexpected that he will take the field. Obviously,
Speaker 1: we'll see what the Thursday and Friday practice reports say,
Speaker 1: but it's not looking good for the first overall. You
Speaker 1: talk about dodging a bullet from and he still hasn't
Speaker 1: had He let's say he's a beast production wise's production wise,
Speaker 1: it's not up there with the Hutchinson's right now and
Speaker 1: what he's doing in Detroit. However, he's he is a beast. Yes,
Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker is a dude. He was the number one
Speaker 1: overall pick for a reason. The fact that not only
Speaker 1: does your offensive line, who struggled a little bit last
Speaker 1: week get a break from that if he's unable to go,
Speaker 1: but also think about Tyron Smith going up against the
Speaker 1: edge rusher in Walker there too. I think Tyron Smith
Speaker 1: would win that battle, but in his first game back,
Speaker 1: that doesn't necessarily mean I want him to go up
Speaker 1: against him a guy that's a complete dog who's got
Speaker 1: some physicality to him, and by physicality I mean extra physicality.
Speaker 1: He go to a game, oh gosh, that one that
Speaker 1: was they were Red and Black Georgia Bulldocks. He is
Speaker 1: the one player when you watch the efense. I know
Speaker 1: we're talking about our offense today, right, but yeah, he's
Speaker 1: the one player when you watch their defense that jumps
Speaker 1: off the film. He's he's I mean, he's everywhere. So
Speaker 1: if he's not playing good for the Cowboys, Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: huge Again, And I kind of use that to segue
Speaker 1: as far as what school did he go to because obviously,
Speaker 1: you know, me having a ton of back ground on
Speaker 1: watching him play weekend a week out on Saturdays for
Speaker 1: my dogs out in Athens. If he cannot go, when
Speaker 1: obviously we're not wishing injury on anyone, that's not what
Speaker 1: we do. We want everyone to be held do we
Speaker 1: want you know, facts period science. You don't want to
Speaker 1: be afraid of anybody at all. But if he cannot go,
Speaker 1: then it is quite a break for the Cowboys because
Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker gets after it. He absolutely gets after it.
Speaker 1: So yeah, Tron can hold his own and that that
Speaker 1: goes without saying. But it's his first game of the
Speaker 1: season and we're talking about his first game of the
Speaker 1: season being in mid December, so you don't want him
Speaker 1: ideally going up against a young stood like Trayvon if
Speaker 1: at all possible. So we'll see if if Walker is
Speaker 1: on the field, but it doesn't sound like he will
Speaker 1: be with a high ankle spring. And you mentioned Dorian's
Speaker 1: armstrong being limited. That's good sign because he left the
Speaker 1: locker room on the Sunday in a boot. No longer
Speaker 1: in a boot. He's back out on the practice field.
Speaker 1: That is a huge plus for the Cowboys to have
Speaker 1: him back into the fold and rotating in out of
Speaker 1: that defense. Now, let's talk about that defense. It's the
Speaker 1: Cowboys defense going up against the Jacksonville Jaguars offense. Two
Speaker 1: teams that of course are toward the top path of
Speaker 1: the NFL in each of their respective units rankings. Dallas,
Speaker 1: we know what they that defense can do. We had
Speaker 1: a whole nickname segment on them and how good they are.
Speaker 1: Jacksonville is starting to earn their own nicknames because they're
Speaker 1: starting to figure it out. Isaiah, when you're watching the film,
Speaker 1: what stands out most when you look at the Jacksonville
Speaker 1: offense Trevor Lawrence is his accuracy. Yeah, he's very accurate quarterback.
Speaker 1: He does a good job of moving into pocket. He's
Speaker 1: starting to become less distressed inside the pocket, protecting them
Speaker 1: better when pressure is around him. He's starting to utilize
Speaker 1: his legs a lot more now too. I think they
Speaker 1: you know, I think Peterson has probably gotten his ear
Speaker 1: about that, like, hey, you don't have to just sit
Speaker 1: there and take these hits, like get out of it,
Speaker 1: you know, work your way in the pocket and if
Speaker 1: nothing presents itself, takeoff. Because he can run. He can run.
Speaker 1: He's lanky, he can run, So I think he's utilizes
Speaker 1: his legs. But he had a Russian touchdown in the
Speaker 1: last game. And then he just he pushes it down
Speaker 1: the field. These guys like to take shots and he
Speaker 1: is not alone. Not only is he accurate, this dude
Speaker 1: thro the ball down the field now, I mean he'll
Speaker 1: throw it fifty five yards in the flick of a risk,
Speaker 1: like there's nobody's business. And he will take chances, He'll
Speaker 1: take risks. He'll give his guys the opportunity to make plays.
Speaker 1: And Doug Peterson, what do we know about him? Dallas
Speaker 1: knows him very well, obviously, having previously been with the
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles. One thing we know about him is he's
Speaker 1: going to use his tight ends and he has a
Speaker 1: tight end that he picked up this offseason that just
Speaker 1: it clicked for him last week. And that's that's in
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram. So you got some dudes to worry about.
Speaker 1: They have a lot of great personnel. When you start
Speaker 1: talking about receivers, and obviously Dallas is down a couple
Speaker 1: of dbs, it's it's not the time that you want
Speaker 1: to be facing the team that's pretty loaded at the
Speaker 1: receiver position, but they're up for the task. Will That's
Speaker 1: what immediately jumps out for me is yes, Trevor Lawrence
Speaker 1: is starting to showcase some escapability here recently, but their
Speaker 1: ability to stretch the field can be problematic. I mean
Speaker 1: that pops right off of the film. They have their
Speaker 1: top four targets for for Trevor Lawrence, Christian Kirk, z
Speaker 1: A Jones, Evan Ingram, Marvin Jones. They're all averaging either
Speaker 1: more than ten yards per grab or damn near so
Speaker 1: Zay Jones is nine point six, everyone else is and
Speaker 1: here it is thirteen per grab for Christian Kirk, ten
Speaker 1: point three for Everan Ingram, twelve point three from Marvin Jones,
Speaker 1: and then again Za Jones at nine point eight or
Speaker 1: nine point six. I'm sorry, So that tells you their
Speaker 1: top four guys that he's targeting. They're averaging the first
Speaker 1: down or more every time they touch the ball. You're
Speaker 1: going to be tested down the field against this team
Speaker 1: and what they also do well as they play off
Speaker 1: of that. So when you start to back up a
Speaker 1: little bit, then you'll see Ingram, you'll see et N
Speaker 1: getting it out of the backfield. So you have to
Speaker 1: make sure that you try to This is one of
Speaker 1: those teams where, yes, you have to keep the running
Speaker 1: back in pocket as much as possible, but careful because
Speaker 1: this is truly a due threat team. I mean, if
Speaker 1: you force the entire game on Trevor Lawrence, which is
Speaker 1: what I would hope you to do because it's still
Speaker 1: a young guy. You want him to play hero ball.
Speaker 1: That's how you're going to get your takeaways. But there's
Speaker 1: a certain line where, um, if it goes sixty forty
Speaker 1: pass run, Trevor can still win this game against you.
Speaker 1: Now if it starts to go eighty twenty, now it
Speaker 1: works in dan Quinn's favor and the defensive takeaways, but
Speaker 1: careful you can get down the field. They present a
Speaker 1: problem because dan Quinn and this defense was starting to
Speaker 1: play a lot of man. Yeah, they were starting to
Speaker 1: play a lot of man coverage. And this is a
Speaker 1: team that I would not with our current personnel. I
Speaker 1: would not. Yeah, I would not be a man because
Speaker 1: all these guys can beat you. What is the difference,
Speaker 1: especially whenever there are so many weapons like that and
Speaker 1: they spread it out. Not one guy is the go
Speaker 1: to guy, which is kind of scary in an aspect
Speaker 1: because they've got four guys that they could really throw
Speaker 1: the football too. You mentioned Ingram, You've got Zay Jones
Speaker 1: on the outside, Christian Kirk got all the big the
Speaker 1: big page, Marvin Jones Junior. Might it sounds like something
Speaker 1: this team here is starting to figure it out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: trying to figure it out. But with all four of
Speaker 1: those guys can can catch the foot ball, they can
Speaker 1: make you pay. Mark. It was Evan Ingram last week,
Speaker 1: it could be Marvin Jones Junior this week. Why is
Speaker 1: that so different for a man to man coverage whenever
Speaker 1: zone you feel like it would be more successful because
Speaker 1: keep it real, personnel wise, they're receivers. They have more
Speaker 1: threats at receiver than you have guys that can stop them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so man to man, I mean, that's just that's just
Speaker 1: pure facts. That's no disrespect, that is just that's just numbers.
Speaker 1: So you have confidence in one area right now, and
Speaker 1: that's treyvon Dix. The other area would probably be Jron
Speaker 1: curse against Evan Ingram, I think will hold it hold
Speaker 1: us on me. But the thing is if you're man up,
Speaker 1: even if you're say you you cover the receivers. The
Speaker 1: only person that I trust at the safety position that
Speaker 1: can cover Evan Ingram is mcquomwell. Because of these it
Speaker 1: has to be a big It has to be a
Speaker 1: big week for mquambo. He has to be able to
Speaker 1: get up there and put hands on Evan Ingram. Evan
Speaker 1: Ingram is a big receiver, call it what it is.
Speaker 1: He's not he's not. He's not power driving any guys
Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage. Okay, but you don't want
Speaker 1: to put a wander back on me because he'll throw
Speaker 1: him at the club. So you have to put a
Speaker 1: bigger guy on him. Jay Ron Curse, as good as
Speaker 1: he's been against safeties, he's good against the traditional safeties
Speaker 1: and right in terms of the earths and the Keil season.
Speaker 1: The guys like that, bigger bodies, guys two hundred and
Speaker 1: sixty plus pound type tight ends. I feel confident with
Speaker 1: him in that regard. Evan Ingram runs routes like a receiver.
Speaker 1: Hey does He runs routes like a receiveres He two
Speaker 1: forty fives. I'm around there, yeah, So I mean this
Speaker 1: guy runs. He's a big receiver, so you don't. I
Speaker 1: think he's too shifty for Hooker, he's too shifty for Curse.
Speaker 1: I think mcquombo has to step up and have the
Speaker 1: game of his freaking life if they want to continue
Speaker 1: to stay with their man to man scheme. Also, who
Speaker 1: are you putting on an island? Well, now you're putting
Speaker 1: on an island. You know our linebackers. So now you're
Speaker 1: asking Damon Clark and you're asking vanderash to play man
Speaker 1: on a ten. And it's just that's just not smart.
Speaker 1: I will say this, um, Curse did have a couple
Speaker 1: of one in particular pass breakup that was key and
Speaker 1: I saw him and and I loved him last week
Speaker 1: last Sunday, I should say against the Houston Texans, if
Speaker 1: they opt to go with Curse, I could see why
Speaker 1: they would do that. It would be more so because
Speaker 1: of the football. Like you, right, is he is still
Speaker 1: a young guy up and coming. He's going against a
Speaker 1: more savvy veteran and Evan Ingram, you would probably prefer
Speaker 1: it because lengthwise and an archetype wise, is he and
Speaker 1: Curse are are similar. But then you toss the work
Speaker 1: right footwork fair enough. But that footwork, while it'll win
Speaker 1: you some battles, will it win you more often than
Speaker 1: not against someone who's as savvy as Evan Ingram. Jroon
Speaker 1: Curse has the veteran savvy to match that, so I
Speaker 1: could see that I'm not gonna have to changeup, right,
Speaker 1: because you're gonna you're still gonna play some man, yea right.
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody you're gonna get smoked. I think
Speaker 1: when you decide to go man, you need to make
Speaker 1: sure that you have somebody who's capable of sticking with him.
Speaker 1: I will say this when it comes to Travis etn
Speaker 1: Um and I know Damon Clark still has to earn
Speaker 1: his rookie lumps, but this between he and LV, my goodness,
Speaker 1: they are really just flying all over the field, so
Speaker 1: you know he's shifted on it. He is. Yeah, So
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that that Travis won't win some some
Speaker 1: battles in space. What I'm saying is seeing Demon Clark
Speaker 1: in space and seeing that speed, I actually perk up
Speaker 1: a bit wanting to see that matchup, Like I want
Speaker 1: to see Travis on a on a screen and Demon
Speaker 1: bearing down to see who can win that battle. Because
Speaker 1: as it stands, i'd go coin toss fifty fifty. Maybe
Speaker 1: Travis hit him wins that one. Maybe Damon Cark blows
Speaker 1: his helmet off. Either way, I'm trying to I'm trying
Speaker 1: to see that in LV as we know, he's playing
Speaker 1: out of his mind right now. He's he's hit you know,
Speaker 1: his pre snap reads, his reaction time, he's not thinking.
Speaker 1: He's just playing football and it's paying off big. So
Speaker 1: the linebacker cord and then at the return of Anthony Barr,
Speaker 1: you saw that big play him and Neville Gallimore on
Speaker 1: that fourth down stop. Bar is back to plane. Looks
Speaker 1: like some good football as he wrapped up from that
Speaker 1: hamstring injury. So the linebacker cord, it's kind of flipp
Speaker 1: because now the linebacker corps, I don't really have concerns
Speaker 1: with it, and the safety cord we don't have concerns
Speaker 1: with because we have a good problem we're talking about
Speaker 1: is he versus j Ron. It's a good problem to have,
Speaker 1: I will say. Side of Diggs that cornerback room and
Speaker 1: to Ron Bland, we got to see what's going on.
Speaker 1: I want to I want to go back to the
Speaker 1: j Ron curse conversation because I was curious because this
Speaker 1: isn't the first time he will have faced Evan Ingram.
Speaker 1: They faced each other twice last year and in those games,
Speaker 1: nine total targets, eight receptions, eighty five yards, no touchdowns,
Speaker 1: so or eighty eight yards? Excuse me? No? No touchdowns?
Speaker 1: So each game was four receptions is all he allowed,
Speaker 1: and he was pretty much man up. I'm looking at
Speaker 1: the all twenty two right now, and I'm kind of
Speaker 1: searching through and I'm seeing curse versus Ingram, curse versus Ingram.
Speaker 1: He was the one that was tabbed to mcgate Evan Ingram.
Speaker 1: That's what I go with. Four receptions for fifty five
Speaker 1: yards in Week five last year, four receptions for thirty
Speaker 1: three yards in Week fifteen last year. Hey, those are
Speaker 1: solid numbers for Ingram. Are you okay with that? I'm
Speaker 1: not okay with that this year? Why is it different?
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson? Okay? Explain? Doug Peterson has made every tight
Speaker 1: end he's ever had underneath him at all Pro every
Speaker 1: tight end Goddard, Yeah, I mean every single one, right,
Speaker 1: And he tells how to get those guys the ball.
Speaker 1: We talk about the speed at these at the receiver group. Right,
Speaker 1: you talk about Marvin Jones, about A Jones, you talk
Speaker 1: about Christian Kirk, Right, you know these guys got agnew
Speaker 1: if they wanted to write these guys, I mean, I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean, these dudes can run. These
Speaker 1: guys are fast, right, So with that carrying guys down
Speaker 1: the field, they run a lot of pick routes for
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram, right, So if you want to start carrying
Speaker 1: guys down the field, they're running him underneath or they're
Speaker 1: running him on whip routes where he's running like he's
Speaker 1: gonna run over across the field. He puts his foot
Speaker 1: in the ground, comes back out. And if you are
Speaker 1: staying a man and man covers, then there's that one guy,
Speaker 1: you know, Trevor Lawrence. He's gonna take off on you.
Speaker 1: I'm telling he's he's being taught now to say, hey,
Speaker 1: make these guys respect you so they can put guys
Speaker 1: in zone. So if they do play zone, now we
Speaker 1: can start finding those holes. This is gonna be a
Speaker 1: challenge for Dallas. I'm not gonna get him don Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean then after Donald Dallas Cowboys defense, this might
Speaker 1: be one of their greatest personnel challenges of the year.
Speaker 1: I do agree with that. I truly believe this is
Speaker 1: maybe they have horses. Yeah, they got some. They have horses.
Speaker 1: And I know that as the saying goes, you know,
Speaker 1: shouts out to the tuna. You are what your record
Speaker 1: says you are, and there's a lot of truth in that,
Speaker 1: but I think contextually there's a little bit of fallacy
Speaker 1: to that as well. Uh Jaguars sitting at five minute
Speaker 1: it's because they were trying to get things together in
Speaker 1: the first half of the season. New head coach, got
Speaker 1: some guys coming back, and now they're starting to string
Speaker 1: get together. The winners of two of their last three.
Speaker 1: They then dropped what thirty six in Tennessee on the
Speaker 1: tight Ends who are scratching in Clawn for a playoff
Speaker 1: spot two games prior to that. Yes, they lost to
Speaker 1: the Lions, but we saw the Lions were surging right now.
Speaker 1: They dropped almost thirty points in the game prior. So
Speaker 1: they have horses. Those horses run and they're going against
Speaker 1: the Cowboys team that unfortunately it lost Hankins, it lost
Speaker 1: Anthony Brown, it lost Jordan Lewis. There's a ton of
Speaker 1: youth at a position where the Cowboys can't really afford
Speaker 1: to struggle against a team that has all these receiving threads.
Speaker 1: So yes, it's going to be personnel wise, it's going
Speaker 1: to be a huge challenge. And Doug Peterson does know
Speaker 1: what he's doing. Um, but again, I feel like I
Speaker 1: will always air to the side of dan Quinn when
Speaker 1: it's dan Quinn versus a young NFL quarterback because more
Speaker 1: often than not, Quinn knows how to play chess against
Speaker 1: those young minds. They still have to protect. I mean,
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I mean, whatever team
Speaker 1: you face, no matter what, no matter what horses they
Speaker 1: have out there, they still have to protect up front. Right.
Speaker 1: But but again we saw last week and this is
Speaker 1: a Cowboys team coming off of a game with no sex.
Speaker 1: Oh they want it. Yeah, And I'm just saying, but
Speaker 1: you have to also take into account what the Levi
Speaker 1: Smith show last week. A way to stop him, a
Speaker 1: way to stop there that out fast. Philadelphia showed a
Speaker 1: way to stop that pass rush. Right you start so
Speaker 1: you start seeing some of these instances, is like, Okay,
Speaker 1: these teams Levy Smith had a great game plan, Philadelphia
Speaker 1: had great game plant and personnel. All right, let's let's
Speaker 1: start piecing these things together. So do you see these
Speaker 1: offensive coordinators, especially when you have these creative minds like Peterson,
Speaker 1: they are gonna be challenging Dallas in that regard. Can
Speaker 1: they get home if they can get home. This conversation
Speaker 1: is no and void if they can't get home and
Speaker 1: gonna find out about these dbs. Bring them down when
Speaker 1: you get home. Yep, yeah, got to. And with that
Speaker 1: being said, there's an offensive line for Jacksonville that's been
Speaker 1: better over the last couple of weeks. Can they keep
Speaker 1: that momentum going? We'll talk about it on the other
Speaker 1: side of the break, because I want to know, are
Speaker 1: we bringing the heat or is it extra guys, or
Speaker 1: are we sitting back and trying to cover a little
Speaker 1: bit more out of that front? Seven given the answer,
Speaker 1: even though Isaiah's already given you the answer, and we

Speaker 1: back here with Patrick, Isaiah Chris. I'm Kyle glad you're
Speaker 1: with us. Isaiah. You brought it up that front seven
Speaker 1: for Dallas. Do you want them to pin their ears
Speaker 1: back and roll potentially leaving some holes in coverage for
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence to throw the football into. Or do you
Speaker 1: drop back a little bit and you play it safe,
Speaker 1: you rush on only three or four guys up every play,
Speaker 1: mix it up. But I would like to pressure to
Speaker 1: crap out of him. Okay, I would like to let
Speaker 1: the dogs go. Let him out the cage. Let them
Speaker 1: boys go eat. They got dogs in the outside. We
Speaker 1: have dogs up front. Let our dogs go go get
Speaker 1: their meal first. When you look at this offensive line
Speaker 1: for Jacksonville, does anybody stand out that does anything over
Speaker 1: the top. I mean, the grades right now aren't great,
Speaker 1: but that's also from a season long. It's kind of
Speaker 1: goes back to the record. This team is better than
Speaker 1: what their record shows right now. I think their best
Speaker 1: guys probably Robinson left tackle. He's been getting torched too. Yeah, Tostito,
Speaker 1: so he hasn't been in our plaza, just straight towards
Speaker 1: the Totos. I'm looking. I want to see our guys
Speaker 1: put some pressure on them. I don't think that. I
Speaker 1: think Trevor Lawris is getting more comfortable because he's getting
Speaker 1: more confident in his Doug Peterson's system. I want to
Speaker 1: blow that up. I want him to question the cause
Speaker 1: that Peterson is making. I want him to be arguing
Speaker 1: with coach on the sideline because these guys are running stunts,
Speaker 1: because Dallas is getting to the quarterback. I want to
Speaker 1: see what Dallas did a couple weeks ago when they
Speaker 1: were just getting home at Bay. That's what it should
Speaker 1: look like. In Duvall. They didn't do a whole lot
Speaker 1: of stunt work against the Texans. Dallas didn't. No, there
Speaker 1: wasn't a whole lot of movement. You're getting the ball
Speaker 1: out quick, yeah, and that that was why do you
Speaker 1: bring that back? Here? Does who bring? Does Dallas bring
Speaker 1: back the stunt work? Or think they have to? Okay,
Speaker 1: they have to. I think they saw what could happen
Speaker 1: and when they don't and I don't think dan Quinn
Speaker 1: liked it. Do you think they can get home even
Speaker 1: though Jacksonville is gonna get the ball out quick? You're
Speaker 1: gonna I think they can, but you've gotta be quick.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to be quick. And like I said,
Speaker 1: Israel mcquomwo is going to need to play the game
Speaker 1: of his life because the outlet is going to be
Speaker 1: is going to be a Travis Etn and is going
Speaker 1: to be Evan Ingram. Those are the outlet guys, right,
Speaker 1: they's gonna they're gonna try to get the ball in
Speaker 1: Etn's hands outside on a quick little swing route to
Speaker 1: outleverage you when you're trying to blitz, and they're gonna
Speaker 1: try to get the ball underneath to Ingram when you
Speaker 1: when that second level decides to come and you bring
Speaker 1: that the pressure from the second level, He's gonna try
Speaker 1: to get that dump off real quick. And if you
Speaker 1: disrupt that timing at the line of scrimmage, all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, you take away his outlets. That's what's scaring
Speaker 1: me the most, Patrick about this whole thing is the
Speaker 1: fact that, yes, you've got guys on the outside, Jones,
Speaker 1: Chew and your Jones. You've got Kirk, three guys that
Speaker 1: you can throw the football too. Oh and by the
Speaker 1: way out of the backfield, here's a wrink call called
Speaker 1: Travis etn Junior and Evan Ingram, those two guys compounding.
Speaker 1: That's what's worrying. And that's why I would and not
Speaker 1: hear what Iris is saying, but I would be concerned
Speaker 1: trying to run stunts against this Jaguars team because there's
Speaker 1: just speed on this offense for the Jaguars, and you
Speaker 1: know that Lawrence is trying to get the ball out quickly.
Speaker 1: And in the time it takes you to try to
Speaker 1: execute that stunt, you're exposing yourself in two ways, both
Speaker 1: down the field because well slants, I should say, which
Speaker 1: will set up down the field down, you know, as
Speaker 1: the game goes along, But you're also just basically inviting
Speaker 1: Trevior's ATM to run up those gaps that no longer
Speaker 1: has Jonathan Hankins sitting right there to save you as
Speaker 1: as a safety net. So for me, you still got
Speaker 1: to get the pressure. But it's this is not one
Speaker 1: of those games where you pin your ears back and
Speaker 1: you're just blitzitlit splits. But it's also not one of
Speaker 1: those games that you don't want to blitz it all.
Speaker 1: So I risk makes a fantastic point. You want to
Speaker 1: mix it up and be as unpredictable with it as possible.
Speaker 1: And I was looking for some NW miracle science just
Speaker 1: out of curiosity, because you know curious minds. Kyle. Sure,
Speaker 1: So when Trevor Lawrence is pressured and you can reduce
Speaker 1: his his pocket time to two point two seconds, He's
Speaker 1: been sacked twenty three times this season through thirteen games,
Speaker 1: so they want to get the ball out quick but quickly.
Speaker 1: But if you shrink that window that much more so,
Speaker 1: you have a fantastic opportunity to get your hands on
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. Now here's the key. Can you bring him down?
Speaker 1: Because on those same pressures. He's been pressured at ninety
Speaker 1: times twenty three. He has scrambled on eighteen of them.
Speaker 1: He's averaging eight point eight yards per scramble when he's
Speaker 1: blitzed and you don't get home on him. So mix
Speaker 1: up the blitzes because they can be effective against him,
Speaker 1: this young quarterback, because you're shrinking this window and you
Speaker 1: can get hands on him. But when you get hands
Speaker 1: on him, bring him down, because this is a Justin
Speaker 1: Herbert type guy where it's like, okay, right, you know
Speaker 1: he can escape. He's a big boy. If you think
Speaker 1: you're just gonna get bring him down one and two? No,
Speaker 1: nupe drive through. Okay, Well, don't don't body flop. Let
Speaker 1: me ask you this. Then you're talking about mixing things up, right,
Speaker 1: mix things up, Mix things up. Both of you are
Speaker 1: on the same page there, right, Okay. There have been
Speaker 1: five hundred and thirty snaps this year with one Micah
Speaker 1: Parsons on the line of scrimmage as an edge rusher.
Speaker 1: Five hundred and thirty snaps only been one hundred and
Speaker 1: seventy with him at linebacker. Is this a game where
Speaker 1: you see more of an even split? There? You see
Speaker 1: more of him back, because then you could bring him
Speaker 1: up the middle, not on a stunt, but on a
Speaker 1: blitz out of a linebacker spot from the inside, and
Speaker 1: then have him on the outside, and you kind of
Speaker 1: have that go to back and forth with him off
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage him on the line of scrimmage,
Speaker 1: completely messing up the thought process of Jacksonville offensively and
Speaker 1: a young quarterback trying to read a defense. There's an
Speaker 1: argument for that, and I want to say yes. I
Speaker 1: really want to say yes to that, but then I
Speaker 1: start thinking, well, if you look at it contextually last week,
Speaker 1: I just break it down. Yes, he was defensive in
Speaker 1: for the large majority of the game, if the entirety
Speaker 1: of the game. But who is he going against. He
Speaker 1: was going against Larrmy tuns a lot. There's no Laramie
Speaker 1: Tunsil on the offensive line film just to Cam Robinson.
Speaker 1: That's fair. I like that. So here's where I'm going
Speaker 1: with it. You give him a healthy amount of snaps
Speaker 1: that defensive end because he's not going up against Larry Tunsil. Yes,
Speaker 1: he will face up against Cam Robinson time and again,
Speaker 1: but to make sure that it's not the entirety of
Speaker 1: the game. Now, we're talking, Kyle. Yes, you want to
Speaker 1: mix it up as well. I don't know if I
Speaker 1: go perfect fifty fifty split. I try it heavy on
Speaker 1: the D on the defensive end at first, to see
Speaker 1: how he matches up against Robinson, see if I need
Speaker 1: to move him around, maybe have some fun. Maybe put
Speaker 1: Tank off of the field just a couple of times,
Speaker 1: because he's one of your better players. So not a lot,
Speaker 1: but just enough to keep the Jaguars guessing. But I
Speaker 1: hesitate to lean heavily towards Michael doing a lot of
Speaker 1: linebacker work because of what we talked about with how
Speaker 1: Damon Clark is ramping up bars return. He's playing well
Speaker 1: and Lv's playing like a maniac. So you want to
Speaker 1: be careful that you don't disrupt that linebacker corps in
Speaker 1: a game where again Tunsio's not playing, and that's no
Speaker 1: to Cam Robinson because Robinson can get after it. But
Speaker 1: Tounso is still a whole dude. Yeah, a whole dude.
Speaker 1: And Robinson has shown at times that he can be had.
Speaker 1: So yeah. And in the last two weeks for Michael Parsons,
Speaker 1: by the way, up against Indie, he had fifty snaps
Speaker 1: as an addresher one as a linebacker forty four last
Speaker 1: week against Laramie Tunso and the Texans, compared to three
Speaker 1: on the back level. Do you keep him up front
Speaker 1: or you kind of mix it up? You know, historically,
Speaker 1: where I've always been in terms of Michael, you know,
Speaker 1: it's always been put him at the second level and
Speaker 1: use it as a m on the front line. Yeah,
Speaker 1: in this game, I want them all at the defense end.
Speaker 1: So the opposite of what you're normal what I normally say, Wow,
Speaker 1: week the weekly, Yeah, it's a week weekly. It's all
Speaker 1: about it's all about matches. I think Damon Clark and
Speaker 1: Vander esh can handle things at the second level in
Speaker 1: this game against this team, because this team is not
Speaker 1: coming downhill at you. This is not gonna this is
Speaker 1: not gonna be a line it up handed to James
Speaker 1: Robinson and let him just come downhill. He's not They're
Speaker 1: not gonna play to do that. They're gonna be going
Speaker 1: sideline to sideline and going down the field. They are
Speaker 1: going to take their shots. This team has their back
Speaker 1: against the wall. They have nothing to lose, so why
Speaker 1: would they not try out everything that's in their back
Speaker 1: and that that point you just made and you're one
Speaker 1: hundred percent correct. They're going to attack the edges and
Speaker 1: they're going to try to stretch your defense horizontally. That's
Speaker 1: why I would try to steer away from running stunts,
Speaker 1: because you're helping them burn the edge. Basically, it's what
Speaker 1: you're doing. And because the time it takes for your
Speaker 1: stunt to occur, that guy and the hole has to
Speaker 1: break out. Their holes opening up and at n speed,
Speaker 1: all gas, no breaks for this offense from from Jacks.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I think I'm on the
Speaker 1: opposite side. I think I want to see him at linebacker,
Speaker 1: and I think I do. I really I wanted to
Speaker 1: be mixed and match. Really, if if I'm being honest,
Speaker 1: I wanted to be a fifty fifty splace you could
Speaker 1: hit crossers like they used to when I was playing.
Speaker 1: I would say, put them at linebacker, but you can't hit,
Speaker 1: can't do it anything more. Yeah, So at that point,
Speaker 1: like what do you you just have them sitting sitting
Speaker 1: in space? What what it's better than him getting washed out.
Speaker 1: I don't see him getting washed out against see but
Speaker 1: he's got He's had two weeks against two bad teams.
Speaker 1: I know Larry me Tonsil is one of the best
Speaker 1: offensive tackles in football, so I understand that that's the case.
Speaker 1: Last week, however, two bad teams, he's had ninety four
Speaker 1: to four snaps as an edge rusher compared to linebacker.
Speaker 1: How many sacks has he had in the last two weeks?
Speaker 1: Zero zero, But how many pressures as he had? You
Speaker 1: look at the scheme of the offenses that you face
Speaker 1: the last few weeks, but what you're about to face,
Speaker 1: he's had five pressures the last two weeks. By the way,
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson wants to push the ball down the field.
Speaker 1: When he's not pushing the ball down the field, he
Speaker 1: wants to get in e Ingraham towns underneath, right, And
Speaker 1: that was what those are designed pick routes. Okay, some
Speaker 1: about three receivers comeing across on over rows and he's
Speaker 1: running unders okay, or he's running a little short, little
Speaker 1: whip rows or something quick to get his head. That's
Speaker 1: why I say mcauamadi's made the line of screams with
Speaker 1: his hands on his chest. Okay, okay, But they want
Speaker 1: to push the ball down the field. So being that
Speaker 1: they want to push the ball down the field, you're
Speaker 1: going to have opportunities to get home. Even though they'll
Speaker 1: have some things doctrined up based upon Livy Smith, based
Speaker 1: upon what they've seen on the Eagles. They're gonna mix
Speaker 1: it up based upon what works, what has worked against
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. But in terms of what their identity is,
Speaker 1: their identity is take shots. So let me let me
Speaker 1: ask you this. I'm curious cow um two part question one.
Speaker 1: Would you be good with a sixty forty split d
Speaker 1: E to LB. Yeah, I'd love that it's more than
Speaker 1: fifty to one. They stop it. No, that's too much.
Speaker 1: So then the question is, but you're you're dan Quinn
Speaker 1: right now? Yeah, in order to achieve that sixty forty
Speaker 1: when it's when you're feating that forty part of the
Speaker 1: equation which linebackers coming off the field Anthony Barr. But
Speaker 1: you need him to continue ramping. Nope, sure you can
Speaker 1: ramp up next week. Yeah, he'll be fine. Next week.
Speaker 1: Mica is gonna be at the d E against Philadelphia,
Speaker 1: plain and simple, that's what that's happening. But it'll be
Speaker 1: back next week. He'll be fine. He'll be a rappy
Speaker 1: Nope against It's fine. He'll be healthy. He'll be fresh legs.
Speaker 1: It'll be fine. And the thing about Mica too, to
Speaker 1: keep in mind, if you're trying to get into the
Speaker 1: flats with Travis CTN, with Evan Ingram and company, who
Speaker 1: is the quickest linebacker to hunt those guys down? It's
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. Michael Parsons is the quickest guy on your
Speaker 1: defense up front. That's it playing simple. Is that actually true?
Speaker 1: Or are you just making you know? We've seen it? When?
Speaker 1: When did you see it? You're saying Demon Clark is
Speaker 1: faster than Michael Parsons. I've seen it in real life.
Speaker 1: I'm about forty times, Mike. I'm pulling up at forty times.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you what I'm seeing it, pulling those uh
Speaker 1: the get off drill that they have. Sure, Okay, well
Speaker 1: you know who's in the league. In the league is Demon? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Parsons say that when Demon first got activated. Yeah, Michael
Speaker 1: told you. I think I remember him saying, and then
Speaker 1: you saw, well who to this point who has the
Speaker 1: top speed of any linebacker is next gen? In chasing
Speaker 1: that you remember the Chicago Bears game when you chased
Speaker 1: down Justin Fields and he registered almost twenty three Miles
Speaker 1: by the way, Micah FO three nine and Demon Clark
Speaker 1: four five seven. It's like, that's the actually point forty
Speaker 1: two playing speed and and and this is good. This
Speaker 1: is to tell me Mica doesn't play fast. I'm talking
Speaker 1: about him. I'm talking about what about chasing down? What
Speaker 1: about chasing Twitter? The tight end against where Detroit not
Speaker 1: saying Mica is slow? What I say uns, that's what
Speaker 1: Now you know what I'm saying. I'll stand on. I'll
Speaker 1: stand on there with my hat on and your hat
Speaker 1: and I'll say I trust theman Clark in space more
Speaker 1: than I trust Michael. The moan is faster, and I
Speaker 1: think he's more at y'all in turns of the ability
Speaker 1: to change direction. I think Mica is nice, straight line.
Speaker 1: I'll take Micael running out Michael. I just don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about against an etn Junior. I'm taking them on.
Speaker 1: I want them on. But I will say this, Michael
Speaker 1: has give me. Michael can change the ration. He can
Speaker 1: break some mankles. No, I'm care, but just so we're
Speaker 1: clear for all the listeners and watchers, because we know
Speaker 1: how Twitter gets, it's gonna be fire, said Michael Slot.
Speaker 1: That is not two people comparison between two insanely fast
Speaker 1: human beings, the faster of the two insanely fast. It's EO.
Speaker 1: Barthon versus Barry Allen. Okay, what I'm saying is Barry
Speaker 1: Allen is Deman Clark and EO Barton. The reverse flash
Speaker 1: is Michael Parsons. If they're both insanely fast. But who
Speaker 1: gets the edge Deman Clark. And that's not me getting
Speaker 1: I've seen it. I've seen it. I've seen it. That
Speaker 1: want y'all to ask them after practice today? Oh well,
Speaker 1: both of them go to one of them will speak
Speaker 1: because one of them is the better player, and he
Speaker 1: is probably quicker in one of those one is the
Speaker 1: better player. Mica is the better water right now, better
Speaker 1: at it? All those things I'm not pulling us. Isn't
Speaker 1: the host. I'm just saying, Michael Parsons being compared to
Speaker 1: Deman Clark right now is a speed bad idea, say
Speaker 1: speed one category. I still don't don't expand the point.
Speaker 1: I still don't expect. I don't agree. All right, let's
Speaker 1: take our break. When we come back, I've got a
Speaker 1: stat to back up what Isaiah was saying in terms
Speaker 1: of pushing it down the field and how Jacksonville is
Speaker 1: one of the best at doing so. When we come
Speaker 1: back with more talking cowboys. Todd thought it would be
Speaker 1: secure to jog in the cheetahs Savannah. Todd believed the
Speaker 1: big Cat repellent he bought online was reliable. And now
Speaker 1: Todd is trying to be faster than this cheetah that
Speaker 1: can run eighty miles per hour. But the good news
Speaker 1: is Todd has AT and T five G. It is fast, reliable,
Speaker 1: and secure, and he learned the best thing to do
Speaker 1: is stop running and toss her the backpack with the
Speaker 1: beef stew At and T five G. Fast, reliable, secure,
Speaker 1: It's not complicated. Five G requires compatible plan and device.

Speaker 1: segment a couple of minutes of talking Cowboys, presented by
Speaker 1: Black Rifle Coffee, the official coffee of the Dallas Cowboys. Gentlemen,
Speaker 1: you were talking about how Jacksonville wants to push it
Speaker 1: down the field. They want to push the ball ten
Speaker 1: yards plus down the field. Trevor Lawrence is the best
Speaker 1: quarterback in the league at doing so so far this
Speaker 1: season on throws of ten plus passing yards since Week nine,
Speaker 1: so halfway through the season. He is graded first in
Speaker 1: the league in terms of overall QBR. He is rated
Speaker 1: first in passer rating like I just said, PFF grade
Speaker 1: also rated first. He also is thirty six of fifty
Speaker 1: three for seven hundred yards, six touchdowns and no interceptions.
Speaker 1: He has not thrown a pick ten yards down the
Speaker 1: field in the last five I guess that's like what
Speaker 1: a month and a half now by this point. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is a team that wants to push it down
Speaker 1: the field, but he also hasn't faced the team that
Speaker 1: provides pressure the same way the Cowboys. And I think
Speaker 1: that's where the Cowboys are really going to have to
Speaker 1: win this battle. And I'm and I kind of mentioned it,
Speaker 1: and I wasn't joking. I was having fun with it
Speaker 1: when I said, go get him Donald, Go get him Donald,
Speaker 1: because that extra guy being sent down is what's gonna
Speaker 1: help keep Trevor Lawrence in the pocket. And hopefully, if not,
Speaker 1: Donald's the one that gets home. It's gonna help a
Speaker 1: guy like Michael Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence get home and
Speaker 1: hopefully you like to see Nevil Gallimore continue to play
Speaker 1: well because Nevil Galimore has really him and also Dick Gizula.
Speaker 1: Those two players on the interior have really been disrupting
Speaker 1: opposing backfield. So as long as they continue to get
Speaker 1: pressure on the interior and then maybe you bring down
Speaker 1: Donald every once in a while, which has been the
Speaker 1: formula for successful that that safety unit and why they're
Speaker 1: getting the sex that they're getting this Donovan Wilson, then
Speaker 1: that makes it easier for a guy like Malik Hooker,
Speaker 1: Israel mcquamo, Jay Ron Hurst to do their job on
Speaker 1: the back in the backfield, Treyvon Diggs, de Ron Bland,
Speaker 1: and that will take a lot of pressure off of
Speaker 1: Kelvin Joseph Nashan Wright. We'll see if trayvon Mullin plays
Speaker 1: in this game. Probably not, but we can't say for
Speaker 1: sure because being claimed puts your only active roster automatically.
Speaker 1: We don't know if he will be an inactive though.
Speaker 1: So pressure is going to be the name of the game.
Speaker 1: You just, like Ira said, you can't go in saying well,
Speaker 1: we're gonna blitz ninety five percent of the time. That's
Speaker 1: going to backfire. You just have to make sure that
Speaker 1: you pick your spots and when you pick your spots,
Speaker 1: because you're gonna have opportunities when you pick these spots.
Speaker 1: Bring him down. I can't stress it enough. Bring him down?
Speaker 1: Nine sounds like radio station. Was that a country station?
Speaker 1: Is that? Is that a point nine country station? That's
Speaker 1: maybe gave me on get him down. Man, he's a
Speaker 1: big boy. He's a big boy that he'll get that
Speaker 1: can run. Yeah, he's a big boy that could run.
Speaker 1: He's very Josh Allanish in that regard. Yeah, he really is. Okay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it's something to keep in mind because he
Speaker 1: has been weaponizing his legs more so recently than he
Speaker 1: has so it helps open things up down the field.
Speaker 1: The fact that he can kind of extend the play
Speaker 1: and even take it over a play anybody running and
Speaker 1: accurate throwing on the run. That's that's something he's had
Speaker 1: since he came out of as a rookie. He's been
Speaker 1: good at that because, I mean, there's some quarterbacks that
Speaker 1: can hurt you with their legs and when they get
Speaker 1: out the pocket, like you know what, they're doing they're
Speaker 1: taking off. This guy's still looking to throw. And that's
Speaker 1: why you can't commit as somebody who's covering a man
Speaker 1: down the field who's running. You know the the you know,
Speaker 1: breaking the pocket protocol, you know the scrambled drill. Usually,
Speaker 1: if you're running, if you have a close route, you're
Speaker 1: supposed to go deep. And a lot of times the
Speaker 1: deep the defender is able to come off of their
Speaker 1: guy and come down hill and play the quarterback. You
Speaker 1: can't do that against him. Yeah, you can't fully commit.
Speaker 1: You have your antennas though, but you can't fully commit
Speaker 1: because he'll dump it right over the head accurately. I mean,
Speaker 1: you go back to the last game that they play.
Speaker 1: This dude was throwing dimes. There were some they were caught,
Speaker 1: some that weren't caught. He was dimes. He's you could
Speaker 1: see his confidence bruin. He's starting to get back to
Speaker 1: how he was confident wise when he was in Clemson
Speaker 1: and escar It's a three set game for the Cowpboys. Three.
Speaker 1: Let me just go ahead and say it with my chess,
Speaker 1: give me four, four, give me four with Dallas coming off,
Speaker 1: with Mike is coming off five sec game with two
Speaker 1: missed sac opportunities because he escapes. So you feel confident
Speaker 1: enough that this team that Dallas could beat Jacksonville with
Speaker 1: only three sacks? Yes, yes, yes, yes yes yes. Uh
Speaker 1: Mica gets a sack off the second level. No, because
Speaker 1: hear what I'm saying. Speed, I think it's a five
Speaker 1: sec opportunity. Two of those he will escape, but one
Speaker 1: of those will turn into a bad play, which turns
Speaker 1: into a takeaway. So I mean we're getting oddly specific
Speaker 1: with our predictions because I like it. You need more
Speaker 1: than three secs. I'm saying with my chest, you need
Speaker 1: more than three for the additional tool of pressures, and
Speaker 1: the pressures I e. Disruptions can create opportunities for takeaways.
Speaker 1: So that's what I mean. Like he's going to escape, yes,
Speaker 1: one or two of these sac opportunities. I just feel
Speaker 1: like the Cowboys will get at him often enough, whereas
Speaker 1: those that minus two, as far as him escaping, they
Speaker 1: will still have enough opportunities to take them down. So
Speaker 1: give me three sex one of those two one margin. Yeah,
Speaker 1: say it real quick. I want to. I wanted to
Speaker 1: be clippable, so whenever it happens or doesn't happen, we
Speaker 1: can come back. Three sex plus two takeaway margin for
Speaker 1: the Cowboys plus two do that a force fumble in
Speaker 1: recovery if you're an interception, if you tell me that
Speaker 1: right now, that's a win. If you can do that,
Speaker 1: that's a winaways that's necessary. We'll save the predictions for tomorrow.
Speaker 1: But three SAT game for the Cowboys, two takeaways, one fumble, recovery,
Speaker 1: one interception. But not an easy matchup, is what we're saying.
Speaker 1: This is not the Houston Texans, This is not the
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. This is probably the best team you've played
Speaker 1: in the last four weeks of your regular season US.
Speaker 1: So just look at their records now, and you know what,
Speaker 1: this is a great time to play this team, right
Speaker 1: before you have to go against the Philadelphia It's true, Yeah,
Speaker 1: perfect time to play, it's no doubt, and the perfect
Speaker 1: time to maybe get a wake up call from Houston,
Speaker 1: because if you beat Houston the way you were supposed to,
Speaker 1: maybe that wake up call comes this Oo, ladies and gentlemen,
Speaker 1: you should probably read Science Lab thirty because Kyle basically
Speaker 1: just dropped an easter rig without even realizing. Yeah I
Speaker 1: didn't realize it, but I will be reading Science Labs
Speaker 1: on Dallas Cowboys dot Com. That's gonna do it for
Speaker 1: us today. We've got to get out of the way.
