I'm not doing a mechanical now, you ball, 0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:26.799 I would ride about. I got some friends I could 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:28.520 call in for the field of his face when he 0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:31.480 see I don't know if I would mess around with 0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:34.800 a real bull, a mechanical bull, easy money, I would 0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:36.400 do it. I've done that at Billy. I would I 0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:38.320 would get on the rule a real bull before I 0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:42.560 got on a bucking horse. Yeah no, that's yeah easy, 0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:46.280 the bucking broncos. No, thank you part of that. Some 0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:48.320 guy won like a couple of million dollars at the 0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:50.880 stadium last year for riding a bull. You can win 0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:53.600 some money, Oh I got there's some money out there. Yeah. 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:56.600 I don't think I'm over the size limit. Yeah, those 0:02:56.600 --> 0:03:01.800 guys are really should be like, I can't can't do 0:03:01.880 --> 0:03:05.200 any of you a little top heavy, tossed off we 0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:09.320 get to the stroy like, yeah, yeah they're a little yea, 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:12.120 your arm would just come clean off your body.

I respect the 0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:15.480 crap out of the industry though, and the guys they 0:03:15.520 --> 0:03:18.040 get on them stripe the crap. That's some next level 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:20.080 training to get to that point. You know, they're starting 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:22.359 to take the training aspect a lot more seriously now 0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:25.239 because imagine, I mean, you think about going up, you 0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:27.760 think about going one on one with Aaron Donald in 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:30.880 the NFL, and preparing and training to take on a 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:32.920 guy like that, and even that is a feat in 0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:36.000 its own Right now, you're taking on a literal bull 0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:45.280 seven Aaron Donald's eightable into one one A well. Welcome 0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:48.960 into Talking Cowboys with the Talking Cowboy Isaiah stand back. 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:51.880 Love the look. It looks fantastic, Sir, you're rocking it? 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:54.160 Are you gonna wear it on special edition? Why not? 0:03:54.720 --> 0:04:00.480 I can't go for awesome? You're Patrick. Let's get some 0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:03.760 news and notes. What's going on in Cowboys Nation? Cowboys 0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:06.600 have another Trayvon in the building. So not only do 0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:12.560 we have a Tyrone Tyler, Tyler, Tyler, Coyle, t Y, 0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:15.720 now we have Trayvon and Tyvon. It's a lot of ties, 0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:18.000 a lot of teas. It's a lot of teas their partner. 0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:23.480 Cowboys claim successfully claimed Trayvon Mullin off of waivers from 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:26.280 the Arizona Cardinals, former second round pick of the Las 0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:29.400 Vegas Raiders, and he joins the locker room as the 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:32.560 Cowboys are really trying to figure out that cornerback situation 0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:35.320 in the wake of losing Anthony Brown, which happened a 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:38.600 few weeks after losing Jordan Lewis Kelvin. Joseph remains the 0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:42.080 starter opposite Treyvon Digs along with the Ron Bland. However, 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:44.719 you see the Cowboys really trying to stack some veteran 0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:48.080 insurance be at McKinsey Alexander who is also former second 0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:51.440 round pick who is also a Clemson product like Trayvon 0:04:51.560 --> 0:04:54.080 mullin is, and then of course you have Kendall Sheffield 0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:57.960 on the practice squad as well. But incomes some guys 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:01.080 and out goes some guys. Unfortunately, the Cowboys, as expected, 0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:04.760 did move Terrence Steele to IR his season ending with 0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:08.320 the tour and ACL They did move Jonathan Hankins over 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:12.920 as well, but Hankins is expected to return for the postseason. 0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:16.240 Per Mike McCarthy and Jerry Jones alike, the Cowboys only 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:19.440 have four games left. Putting Hankins on IR negates him 0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:21.359 four the last four games of the regular season, so 0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:23.640 that time's up well there so as far as roster 0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:27.760 spots are concerned, and comes Trayvon Mullen, outgoes both Steel 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:30.640 and Hankins, and that still leaves them at fifty two spots, 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:34.279 so there's a free spot for one tie. Rod Smith 0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:37.680 was expected to take the field this Sunday per Jerry Jones, 0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:43.360 as long as everything goes well. Injury report, Jake Ferguson 0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:46.919 remains in concussion protocol after suffering the concussion in the 0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:50.480 battle against the Texans on Sunday. A very short list 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:52.840 of injuries for the Cowboys through the Elier Wednesday walk 0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:56.040 through during so Armstrong suffered to suffered the ankle injury 0:05:56.080 --> 0:05:58.520 on the last play of the game. He left in 0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:02.320 a walking boot, but he was listed as limited and 0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:05.080 yesterday's walk through he has a very good chance to 0:06:05.120 --> 0:06:07.600 play on Sunday. Mike McCarthy says, as long as he 0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:11.240 doesn't reaggravate or there's not a setback. Jayron Curse, he's 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.920 been dealing with the shoulder injury. DeMarcus Lawrence been dealing 0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:15.680 with the foot and a bunch of other stuff. They 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:19.919 both were listed as limited participants as well. So all told, 0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:23.799 outside of the big losses that we know about Steal Hankins, 0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:26.599 for the most part, the Cowboys injury report this week 0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:31.160 is rather short. Jaguars Trevor Lawrence is dealing with a 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:34.080 toe injury the turf toe. Did not participate, but he 0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:36.719 is wildly expected to play out. He'd have to ram 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.159 that thing into a coffee table to not play on 0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:43.040 on Sunday. Maybe maybe a little more than that. Get 0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:44.720 it run over in the parking lot. Send up some 0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:48.320 black rifle. I think one can get on that coffee 0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:51.599 table now, Scott, get it to him. I think the 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:55.800 big one for they had four players who did not participate. 0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:57.800 There was an actual practice Jaguars didn't have a walk 0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:00.840 through yesterday, so there's his more significant. You have Brandon 0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:03.120 Schurff the offensive linean keep an eye on that. Treyvon 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:07.320 Walker pass rusher did not participate, nor did Darius Williams. 0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:10.840 Now of those four I just mentioned, Treyvon Walker seems 0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:12.800 to be the least likely to play. He suffered a 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:18.360 high ankle sprain on Sunday. WHOA, Yes, that's a huge, 0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:21.560 huge loss for them. Yes, that's the number one overall 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.760 pick in twenty two. So he suffered a high ankle 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:28.160 sprain and it is unexpected that he will take the field. Obviously, 0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:30.880 we'll see what the Thursday and Friday practice reports say, 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:34.360 but it's not looking good for the first overall. You 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:39.160 talk about dodging a bullet from and he still hasn't 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:43.280 had He let's say he's a beast production wise's production wise, 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:45.640 it's not up there with the Hutchinson's right now and 0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:49.920 what he's doing in Detroit. However, he's he is a beast. Yes, 0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:52.240 Trayvon Walker is a dude. He was the number one 0:07:52.280 --> 0:07:55.920 overall pick for a reason. The fact that not only 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:58.680 does your offensive line, who struggled a little bit last 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:01.680 week get a break from that if he's unable to go, 0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:04.720 but also think about Tyron Smith going up against the 0:08:04.800 --> 0:08:07.880 edge rusher in Walker there too. I think Tyron Smith 0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:10.000 would win that battle, but in his first game back, 0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:11.920 that doesn't necessarily mean I want him to go up 0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:15.040 against him a guy that's a complete dog who's got 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:18.760 some physicality to him, and by physicality I mean extra physicality. 0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:22.480 He go to a game, oh gosh, that one that 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:27.560 was they were Red and Black Georgia Bulldocks. He is 0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:30.400 the one player when you watch the efense. I know 0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:32.880 we're talking about our offense today, right, but yeah, he's 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:35.160 the one player when you watch their defense that jumps 0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:38.160 off the film. He's he's I mean, he's everywhere. So 0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:41.959 if he's not playing good for the Cowboys, Yeah, that's 0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:44.080 huge Again, And I kind of use that to segue 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:46.240 as far as what school did he go to because obviously, 0:08:46.400 --> 0:08:48.679 you know, me having a ton of back ground on 0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:51.959 watching him play weekend a week out on Saturdays for 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:55.600 my dogs out in Athens. If he cannot go, when 0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:58.560 obviously we're not wishing injury on anyone, that's not what 0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:00.240 we do. We want everyone to be held do we 0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:02.400 want you know, facts period science. You don't want to 0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:05.320 be afraid of anybody at all. But if he cannot go, 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:08.400 then it is quite a break for the Cowboys because 0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:12.600 Trayvon Walker gets after it. He absolutely gets after it. 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:15.880 So yeah, Tron can hold his own and that that 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:18.320 goes without saying. But it's his first game of the 0:09:18.320 --> 0:09:21.280 season and we're talking about his first game of the 0:09:21.320 --> 0:09:24.520 season being in mid December, so you don't want him 0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:28.960 ideally going up against a young stood like Trayvon if 0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:30.760 at all possible. So we'll see if if Walker is 0:09:30.800 --> 0:09:32.719 on the field, but it doesn't sound like he will 0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:35.280 be with a high ankle spring. And you mentioned Dorian's 0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:38.520 armstrong being limited. That's good sign because he left the 0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:42.120 locker room on the Sunday in a boot. No longer 0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:44.240 in a boot. He's back out on the practice field. 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:46.679 That is a huge plus for the Cowboys to have 0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:50.800 him back into the fold and rotating in out of 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:53.880 that defense. Now, let's talk about that defense. It's the 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:57.880 Cowboys defense going up against the Jacksonville Jaguars offense. Two 0:09:57.920 --> 0:10:00.440 teams that of course are toward the top path of 0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:04.400 the NFL in each of their respective units rankings. Dallas, 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:06.559 we know what they that defense can do. We had 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:10.760 a whole nickname segment on them and how good they are. 0:10:11.280 --> 0:10:13.960 Jacksonville is starting to earn their own nicknames because they're 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:16.480 starting to figure it out. Isaiah, when you're watching the film, 0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:18.679 what stands out most when you look at the Jacksonville 0:10:18.720 --> 0:10:23.720 offense Trevor Lawrence is his accuracy. Yeah, he's very accurate quarterback. 0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:26.440 He does a good job of moving into pocket. He's 0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:31.079 starting to become less distressed inside the pocket, protecting them 0:10:31.080 --> 0:10:34.319 better when pressure is around him. He's starting to utilize 0:10:34.320 --> 0:10:36.400 his legs a lot more now too. I think they 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:38.480 you know, I think Peterson has probably gotten his ear 0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:40.120 about that, like, hey, you don't have to just sit 0:10:40.160 --> 0:10:42.200 there and take these hits, like get out of it, 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:43.600 you know, work your way in the pocket and if 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:46.600 nothing presents itself, takeoff. Because he can run. He can run. 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:49.360 He's lanky, he can run, So I think he's utilizes 0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:50.839 his legs. But he had a Russian touchdown in the 0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:54.040 last game. And then he just he pushes it down 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:56.760 the field. These guys like to take shots and he 0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:59.760 is not alone. Not only is he accurate, this dude 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:01.680 thro the ball down the field now, I mean he'll 0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:03.560 throw it fifty five yards in the flick of a risk, 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:06.640 like there's nobody's business. And he will take chances, He'll 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:09.680 take risks. He'll give his guys the opportunity to make plays. 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:13.400 And Doug Peterson, what do we know about him? Dallas 0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:16.160 knows him very well, obviously, having previously been with the 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:19.080 Philadelphia Eagles. One thing we know about him is he's 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:21.360 going to use his tight ends and he has a 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:24.000 tight end that he picked up this offseason that just 0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:26.560 it clicked for him last week. And that's that's in 0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:29.960 Evan Ingram. So you got some dudes to worry about. 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.200 They have a lot of great personnel. When you start 0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:34.520 talking about receivers, and obviously Dallas is down a couple 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:37.199 of dbs, it's it's not the time that you want 0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:38.800 to be facing the team that's pretty loaded at the 0:11:38.800 --> 0:11:42.160 receiver position, but they're up for the task. Will That's 0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:45.880 what immediately jumps out for me is yes, Trevor Lawrence 0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:51.280 is starting to showcase some escapability here recently, but their 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:54.520 ability to stretch the field can be problematic. I mean 0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:56.719 that pops right off of the film. They have their 0:11:57.040 --> 0:12:01.520 top four targets for for Trevor Lawrence, Christian Kirk, z 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:05.800 A Jones, Evan Ingram, Marvin Jones. They're all averaging either 0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:09.400 more than ten yards per grab or damn near so 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:11.760 Zay Jones is nine point six, everyone else is and 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:14.600 here it is thirteen per grab for Christian Kirk, ten 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:17.439 point three for Everan Ingram, twelve point three from Marvin Jones, 0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:19.520 and then again Za Jones at nine point eight or 0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:22.280 nine point six. I'm sorry, So that tells you their 0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:24.920 top four guys that he's targeting. They're averaging the first 0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:27.520 down or more every time they touch the ball. You're 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:30.360 going to be tested down the field against this team 0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:32.880 and what they also do well as they play off 0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:35.760 of that. So when you start to back up a 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:39.880 little bit, then you'll see Ingram, you'll see et N 0:12:40.240 --> 0:12:42.880 getting it out of the backfield. So you have to 0:12:42.920 --> 0:12:44.559 make sure that you try to This is one of 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:46.880 those teams where, yes, you have to keep the running 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:51.960 back in pocket as much as possible, but careful because 0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:54.360 this is truly a due threat team. I mean, if 0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:57.920 you force the entire game on Trevor Lawrence, which is 0:12:57.920 --> 0:12:59.520 what I would hope you to do because it's still 0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:01.160 a young guy. You want him to play hero ball. 0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:03.040 That's how you're going to get your takeaways. But there's 0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:07.120 a certain line where, um, if it goes sixty forty 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:09.880 pass run, Trevor can still win this game against you. 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:12.120 Now if it starts to go eighty twenty, now it 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:14.760 works in dan Quinn's favor and the defensive takeaways, but 0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:17.400 careful you can get down the field. They present a 0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:20.520 problem because dan Quinn and this defense was starting to 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:22.599 play a lot of man. Yeah, they were starting to 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:24.120 play a lot of man coverage. And this is a 0:13:24.120 --> 0:13:26.600 team that I would not with our current personnel. I 0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:29.040 would not. Yeah, I would not be a man because 0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:31.560 all these guys can beat you. What is the difference, 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:34.600 especially whenever there are so many weapons like that and 0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:38.640 they spread it out. Not one guy is the go 0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:41.360 to guy, which is kind of scary in an aspect 0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:43.439 because they've got four guys that they could really throw 0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:46.240 the football too. You mentioned Ingram, You've got Zay Jones 0:13:46.280 --> 0:13:48.400 on the outside, Christian Kirk got all the big the 0:13:48.440 --> 0:13:52.080 big page, Marvin Jones Junior. Might it sounds like something 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:54.840 this team here is starting to figure it out. Yeah, 0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:57.679 trying to figure it out. But with all four of 0:13:57.679 --> 0:14:00.559 those guys can can catch the foot ball, they can 0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:03.600 make you pay. Mark. It was Evan Ingram last week, 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:06.480 it could be Marvin Jones Junior this week. Why is 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.079 that so different for a man to man coverage whenever 0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:12.160 zone you feel like it would be more successful because 0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:16.960 keep it real, personnel wise, they're receivers. They have more 0:14:17.000 --> 0:14:20.120 threats at receiver than you have guys that can stop them. Yeah, 0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:21.880 so man to man, I mean, that's just that's just 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:24.760 pure facts. That's no disrespect, that is just that's just numbers. 0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:26.840 So you have confidence in one area right now, and 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:29.960 that's treyvon Dix. The other area would probably be Jron 0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:34.200 curse against Evan Ingram, I think will hold it hold 0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.240 us on me. But the thing is if you're man up, 0:14:36.360 --> 0:14:39.320 even if you're say you you cover the receivers. The 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.000 only person that I trust at the safety position that 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:46.520 can cover Evan Ingram is mcquomwell. Because of these it 0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:47.760 has to be a big It has to be a 0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:49.400 big week for mquambo. He has to be able to 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.880 get up there and put hands on Evan Ingram. Evan 0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:54.400 Ingram is a big receiver, call it what it is. 0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:57.320 He's not he's not. He's not power driving any guys 0:14:57.320 --> 0:14:59.440 at the line of scrimmage. Okay, but you don't want 0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:01.200 to put a wander back on me because he'll throw 0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:03.160 him at the club. So you have to put a 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:05.760 bigger guy on him. Jay Ron Curse, as good as 0:15:05.760 --> 0:15:09.160 he's been against safeties, he's good against the traditional safeties 0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:11.440 and right in terms of the earths and the Keil season. 0:15:11.480 --> 0:15:13.640 The guys like that, bigger bodies, guys two hundred and 0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.000 sixty plus pound type tight ends. I feel confident with 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:18.720 him in that regard. Evan Ingram runs routes like a receiver. 0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:21.360 Hey does He runs routes like a receiveres He two 0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:24.280 forty fives. I'm around there, yeah, So I mean this 0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:27.280 guy runs. He's a big receiver, so you don't. I 0:15:27.320 --> 0:15:31.120 think he's too shifty for Hooker, he's too shifty for Curse. 0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:33.160 I think mcquombo has to step up and have the 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:35.200 game of his freaking life if they want to continue 0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:38.280 to stay with their man to man scheme. Also, who 0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:40.200 are you putting on an island? Well, now you're putting 0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:43.480 on an island. You know our linebackers. So now you're 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:46.320 asking Damon Clark and you're asking vanderash to play man 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:48.440 on a ten. And it's just that's just not smart. 0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:52.480 I will say this, um, Curse did have a couple 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:55.440 of one in particular pass breakup that was key and 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:57.440 I saw him and and I loved him last week 0:15:57.760 --> 0:16:00.280 last Sunday, I should say against the Houston Texans, if 0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:02.600 they opt to go with Curse, I could see why 0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:05.360 they would do that. It would be more so because 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:08.920 of the football. Like you, right, is he is still 0:16:09.040 --> 0:16:11.080 a young guy up and coming. He's going against a 0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:13.880 more savvy veteran and Evan Ingram, you would probably prefer 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:17.320 it because lengthwise and an archetype wise, is he and 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:20.600 Curse are are similar. But then you toss the work 0:16:20.840 --> 0:16:24.760 right footwork fair enough. But that footwork, while it'll win 0:16:24.800 --> 0:16:27.120 you some battles, will it win you more often than 0:16:27.160 --> 0:16:30.520 not against someone who's as savvy as Evan Ingram. Jroon 0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:33.120 Curse has the veteran savvy to match that, so I 0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:34.720 could see that I'm not gonna have to changeup, right, 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:36.560 because you're gonna you're still gonna play some man, yea right. 0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:40.120 I don't think anybody you're gonna get smoked. I think 0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:42.600 when you decide to go man, you need to make 0:16:42.640 --> 0:16:44.960 sure that you have somebody who's capable of sticking with him. 0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:46.840 I will say this when it comes to Travis etn 0:16:47.080 --> 0:16:49.520 Um and I know Damon Clark still has to earn 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:54.160 his rookie lumps, but this between he and LV, my goodness, 0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:56.160 they are really just flying all over the field, so 0:16:58.080 --> 0:17:00.800 you know he's shifted on it. He is. Yeah, So 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:03.240 I'm not saying that that Travis won't win some some 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:07.240 battles in space. What I'm saying is seeing Demon Clark 0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:10.239 in space and seeing that speed, I actually perk up 0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:13.560 a bit wanting to see that matchup, Like I want 0:17:13.600 --> 0:17:16.800 to see Travis on a on a screen and Demon 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:19.080 bearing down to see who can win that battle. Because 0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:23.040 as it stands, i'd go coin toss fifty fifty. Maybe 0:17:23.119 --> 0:17:25.680 Travis hit him wins that one. Maybe Damon Cark blows 0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:30.280 his helmet off. Either way, I'm trying to I'm trying 0:17:30.280 --> 0:17:32.240 to see that in LV as we know, he's playing 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:34.520 out of his mind right now. He's he's hit you know, 0:17:34.680 --> 0:17:38.880 his pre snap reads, his reaction time, he's not thinking. 0:17:39.240 --> 0:17:41.679 He's just playing football and it's paying off big. So 0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:44.000 the linebacker cord and then at the return of Anthony Barr, 0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:47.359 you saw that big play him and Neville Gallimore on 0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:50.400 that fourth down stop. Bar is back to plane. Looks 0:17:50.400 --> 0:17:52.159 like some good football as he wrapped up from that 0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:54.840 hamstring injury. So the linebacker cord, it's kind of flipp 0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:57.800 because now the linebacker corps, I don't really have concerns 0:17:57.800 --> 0:18:00.880 with it, and the safety cord we don't have concerns 0:18:00.880 --> 0:18:02.680 with because we have a good problem we're talking about 0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:04.720 is he versus j Ron. It's a good problem to have, 0:18:04.920 --> 0:18:08.520 I will say. Side of Diggs that cornerback room and 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:10.439 to Ron Bland, we got to see what's going on. 0:18:10.600 --> 0:18:11.760 I want to I want to go back to the 0:18:11.840 --> 0:18:14.760 j Ron curse conversation because I was curious because this 0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:17.000 isn't the first time he will have faced Evan Ingram. 0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:20.800 They faced each other twice last year and in those games, 0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:26.119 nine total targets, eight receptions, eighty five yards, no touchdowns, 0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:29.000 so or eighty eight yards? Excuse me? No? No touchdowns? 0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:32.320 So each game was four receptions is all he allowed, 0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:34.199 and he was pretty much man up. I'm looking at 0:18:34.200 --> 0:18:36.119 the all twenty two right now, and I'm kind of 0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:40.480 searching through and I'm seeing curse versus Ingram, curse versus Ingram. 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:43.879 He was the one that was tabbed to mcgate Evan Ingram. 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:46.280 That's what I go with. Four receptions for fifty five 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.320 yards in Week five last year, four receptions for thirty 0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:53.560 three yards in Week fifteen last year. Hey, those are 0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:55.960 solid numbers for Ingram. Are you okay with that? I'm 0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:59.000 not okay with that this year? Why is it different? 0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:04.280 Doug Peterson? Okay? Explain? Doug Peterson has made every tight 0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:08.760 end he's ever had underneath him at all Pro every 0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:12.919 tight end Goddard, Yeah, I mean every single one, right, 0:19:12.960 --> 0:19:14.640 And he tells how to get those guys the ball. 0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:17.560 We talk about the speed at these at the receiver group. Right, 0:19:17.560 --> 0:19:19.800 you talk about Marvin Jones, about A Jones, you talk 0:19:19.840 --> 0:19:22.520 about Christian Kirk, Right, you know these guys got agnew 0:19:22.560 --> 0:19:26.200 if they wanted to write these guys, I mean, I mean, 0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:29.160 I mean yeah, I mean, these dudes can run. These 0:19:29.160 --> 0:19:32.160 guys are fast, right, So with that carrying guys down 0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:34.680 the field, they run a lot of pick routes for 0:19:34.680 --> 0:19:36.639 Evan Ingram, right, So if you want to start carrying 0:19:36.680 --> 0:19:38.880 guys down the field, they're running him underneath or they're 0:19:38.920 --> 0:19:40.679 running him on whip routes where he's running like he's 0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:43.000 gonna run over across the field. He puts his foot 0:19:43.000 --> 0:19:44.800 in the ground, comes back out. And if you are 0:19:44.800 --> 0:19:46.720 staying a man and man covers, then there's that one guy, 0:19:46.760 --> 0:19:49.200 you know, Trevor Lawrence. He's gonna take off on you. 0:19:49.640 --> 0:19:51.560 I'm telling he's he's being taught now to say, hey, 0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:53.880 make these guys respect you so they can put guys 0:19:53.880 --> 0:19:56.159 in zone. So if they do play zone, now we 0:19:56.160 --> 0:19:58.000 can start finding those holes. This is gonna be a 0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:00.000 challenge for Dallas. I'm not gonna get him don Yeah, 0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:04.800 I mean then after Donald Dallas Cowboys defense, this might 0:20:04.800 --> 0:20:07.520 be one of their greatest personnel challenges of the year. 0:20:07.920 --> 0:20:10.200 I do agree with that. I truly believe this is 0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:12.920 maybe they have horses. Yeah, they got some. They have horses. 0:20:12.960 --> 0:20:15.320 And I know that as the saying goes, you know, 0:20:15.359 --> 0:20:17.600 shouts out to the tuna. You are what your record 0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:19.479 says you are, and there's a lot of truth in that, 0:20:19.720 --> 0:20:22.600 but I think contextually there's a little bit of fallacy 0:20:22.680 --> 0:20:25.399 to that as well. Uh Jaguars sitting at five minute 0:20:25.400 --> 0:20:28.760 it's because they were trying to get things together in 0:20:28.800 --> 0:20:31.760
