Speaker 1: the same way we do. No, definitely not that, whilst

31
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,360

35
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 3: I'm ready to get into this. Do it because Isaia one,

36
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 3: it's great to have you back. I haven't had you

37
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 3: back since your back surgery.

38
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: Bro, you're doing all right. It's these three weeks.

39
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 3: It's been three weeks calling multiple preseason games, calling HBCU

40
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 3: Classic games from Canton, Ohio for the NFL Network, flying

41
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,880

42
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,399
Speaker 3: NFL Network broadcast.

43
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 1: And I'm sure you're just hunky door. You haven't had

44
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: a single lick of pain the whole way. Good thing

45
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 1: you didn't have a major I don't know what I

46
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: was thinking spine or anything.

47
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 4: Bro.

48
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, the whole back surgery thing was crazy. It was

49
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: something that was needed. Everybody's like, why'd you do it?

50
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: Now?

51
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: Because I had to do it at some point. It

52
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 1: was either like do it after the season and be

53
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: miserable the whole offseason, or do it during the season

54
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: and be distracted. Well, you know by the work, you know.

55
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: So I had to get it done. My whole spinal

56
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: fusion was necessary because my spine was collapse. It was

57
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: displaced all the things. So they had to pull my

58
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: spine back in place, raise it up, put an insert

59
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 1: in there, screw it in, went through the front by

60
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: the way. Okay, they went through my stomach, okay, moved

61
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: everything out the way, got to my spine, put the

62
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: insert in, turned me over. Use the robot to put

63
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 1: the screws in through my back as well. So I'm

64
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 1: a half inch taller now, boys, really, how about that?

65
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 1: Yeah that was the real surgery. We need some new

66
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: combound messure. Yeah, yeah, we need comb They had me

00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: week suck. Shout out to my wife Natalie, who literally

71
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: held me down, picked me up, did all the things.

72
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: I'll keep away from some of the stories that we

73
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: have behind the scenes that she had to deal with,

74
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: but she was awesome through that first week. That second

75
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: week got a little bit better. Then I had to

76
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: start traveling, and that was that being by yourself for

77
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,839
Speaker 1: almost week and a half. At least, pull the first

78
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: class on those they take care of you. Yeah, okay, yeah,

79
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: the NFL, NFL network takes care of you know in

80
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: that regardless.

81
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 3: Of just make sure because coach in that scenario with

82
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 3: not that's what I would have Isaiah.

83
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 5: Stand back, we're talking about I'm not getting Ky the

84
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 5: other one way or the other.

85
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: He's in first class. So that was all good. And

86
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: then you know, right before I was able to fly

87
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: out of l A to go to Ohio, something around

88
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: here happened. Yeah that you know, they did it right

89
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,600
Speaker 1: before the Friday show on Good Morning Football. So that

90
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: was awesome being at the table having to address all

91
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 1: that stuff because you know, everybody's like, Isaiah, how about

92
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: them Cowboys? So what did they do? The whole Michael

93
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: Parsons thing. Obviously, I know you guys already covered it,

94
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 1: but that was that was what want you take you

95
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: want my take on it? I, first of all, I

96
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: did not believe that the Joneses would pull that move.

97
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: I and there was nothing in me that would state

98
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: that you have a generational player like that and you

99
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: will actually make the move. Now, is it that team

100
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 1: or is it the moving No, just to move in

101
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: generals move to have it talent like that and to

102
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: let him go, that takes some gusto. That takes some

103
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:07,239
Speaker 1: gusta regardless of whatever reasonings you may have, that still

104
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,679
Speaker 1: takes some cohonas in order to take.

105
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 3: It's a stable Okay, speaking of that, it did if

106
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 3: I was thinking about this maybe a day and a

107
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 3: half ago. And at the end of that documentary, one

108
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 3: of the final I think it was the final episode,

109
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,799
Speaker 3: there's a there's a clip that went viral where Jerry's

110
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 3: talking to Ram's ownership and he said, oh, I just

111
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 3: don't have the cohonas. I don't have the guts to

112
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 3: make the trade that you guys did with Stafford and Golf,

113
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 3: talking about the Ram Stafford Golf trade, and he's like,

114
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 3: I don't have the cohonas to do that, and so

115
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 3: that went viral. Of course, Cowboys, Twitter, Cowboys, everything picked

116
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 3: it up, and then we see a move like this.

117
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I don't know if there's a direct correlation.

118
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: There may or may not be, but I truly believe

119
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: that if you had any question gens as to the

120
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: impact of Stephen Jones and Will McLay on mister Jerry Jones,

121
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: I think this probably was the most impactful, polarizing way

122
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 1: to describe their influence on mister Jones. People forget they

123
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: said unanimous. Yes, And the reason why I say that

124
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: is because you look at you. I don't know that

125
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: they samous. I don't believe that it was completely unanimous,

126
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: but I do think that it was heavily weighted in

127
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: the favor of what they opted to do. I'll take that, Yeah,

128
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 1: but I believe that their influence in terms of especially

129
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: when McClay and Stephen Jones really just take it. Not

130
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: to say that Double J can't make his own decisions,

131
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: but I'm just saying that to be able to say, hey,

132
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: take the motion out of it. Let's take the motion

133
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: out of it. Is take the fact that this dude

134
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: is as an absolute beast of a player. Let's look

135
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: at it strategically. Let's look at it with the mentality

136
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: of we're trying to build this roster, and you can

137
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 1: have a handful of very dominant players, where you can

138
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: have a roster of really good players, right, and when

139
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: we're really good across the board, it's really difficult to stop,

140
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: right because if you have a handful of really good players,

141
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,679
Speaker 1: now we can gain plan that. Now we can focus

142
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: on that player, now we can highlight that. But if

143
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: everybody on your roster is making an impact, then it's like, dang.

144
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: And when you as we get ready to talk about

145
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: the egos, especially their defense, who's the one person that

146
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: you circle on their defense that you're like, oh, you

147
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: better watch out for this guy is really it's really

148
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: I mean, there's one guy that does absolute beast right

149
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: in terms of their d line, But you have to

150
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: respect everybody, everybody like the group, So that harder is

151
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: the headline. Jalen Caller is a headliner, but like, you

152
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: can't just focus on Jaylen Carter because somebody else will

153
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: kill you too. So that's the approach that I feel

154
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: like Dallas is really getting to and I think that

155
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 1: they're coming to that maturity, right. I don't want to

156
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: say that in a demoralizing way, right, but like there,

157
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: I think they've matured over this last year in regards

158
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: to understanding what it takes to put together a full team.

159
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: So I want to give kudos to the front office

160
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: for making for being willing to make the move with

161
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: the understanding that it's going to be painful. But if

162
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: you turn around and do what you can do with

163
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: that space, with the with those draft picks, with the

164
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: players that you acquired, with the player you acquired, then

165
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: you could actually have a much better team. Quick question

166
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: for you, because we've all all answered these questions, but

167
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: the fans of the Best Cowboys podcast on Earth, I

168
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: want to hear your take on this. How are you

169
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: on the compensation package? I think they could have gotten more.

170
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: There would go there, we could have gone. That's a

171
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: complete and the reason why is because understanding who you're

172
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: trading with when you receive those first round pixels are

173
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: low first round picks, So that's why I believe that

174
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: you could have gotten more.

175
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 3: I think you needed another player, one another starter, one

176
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 3: more starter, and I think I would have.

177
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: Been okay, And I don't think they would have given

178
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: that up Green Bay. I don't think they would have

179
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: done that. And that's fair. Well then yeah, I mean

180
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 1: next if it was, Yeah, I think there's a handful

181
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: of teams that I probably would have called in regards

182
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,719
Speaker 1: to that. I think one of those to address the

183
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: areas of your concern. Baltimore probably would have been high

184
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: on my list in terms of not having to deal

185
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 1: with them in your in your in your conference, and

186
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: them having some depth at the defensive line position. That

187
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: would have also been late first round. No, no, for sure,

188
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: it would have been late first round. Or but in

189
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 1: terms of teams that have additional guys to where it

190
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,079
Speaker 1: can utilize, yes, in terms of the positional need that

191
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: you have strengthen an exact opponent, Yeah, but I do Again,

192
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 1: I everybody asked them, what do you think about this?

193
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: If they use the draft picks, if they use the

194
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 1: salary cap space, if they use additional money, then it's all.

195
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: Then then the Cowboys as an organization could be looked

196
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: at and you can say, good job on the trail.

197
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: And they did that right the first and first day.

198
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 1: First step they did was go out there, let's secure

199
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: Durn Bland, and I would imagine the next step is

200
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: going to be Tyler Smith, right, and then after that

201
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 1: then you could use those draft picks and say, hey,

202
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: we could either use these draft picks to go acquire

203
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,559
Speaker 1: somebody else as an impact player, because it's hard for

204
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 1: organization to turn down and offer for a first round pick,

205
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: even if it's a low first round pick. If you

206
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: you have a starter on your team, maybe they were

207
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: a former All Pro bowler, and you say, hey, I

208
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: want that guy, I'll give your first round pick. Almost

209
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: every gym is going to be like what you say,

210
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 1: not yet? Yeah they heard first, Yeah, they heir first

211
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: round picks.

212
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 6: Right.

213
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 1: So they're all regardless, regardless of where it's at. Right.

214
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: So I believe especially teams that need to get some

215
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: depth and that have some salary cap issues, right, but

216
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: they want to add some more impact players. So I

217
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 1: think that they are in a really good position. I

218
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,839
Speaker 1: am intrigued and I'm proud of what they've already done,

219
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,679
Speaker 1: but I'm intrigued as to what else they're going to

220
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: do because there are some more holes that they need

221
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 1: to fill.

222
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 3: This is the whole compensation package debate, and it can

223
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 3: be ended by one thing, and that's hitting on whatever

224
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 3: they do next. And that's what Patrick said last week,

225
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 3: That's what Josh echoed last week. We talked about this

226
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 3: at nauseum. So I don't want to harp on Michael

227
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 3: Parsons as much anymore because Eagles got your thoughts.

228
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: But they have hit the first domino. Deron blam. That

229
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: four year deal for your extension awesome for him. I

230
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: love it for Doran.

231
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 3: I mean, I think all of us across the board

232
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,719
Speaker 3: have gotten to know Doron since he was drafted a

233
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 3: couple of years back, and he's one of the salt

234
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 3: of the earth guys in that locker room. Just an

235
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 3: incredible player, super deserving what he's done to work to

236
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 3: get to this point, to overcome adversity to be who

237
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 3: he is now.

238
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: I love this for him, and I don't know how

239
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 1: you can be critical of this move. It's a great deal.

240
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: I don't know how you get critical hits great. It's

241
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: a great deal.

242
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 5: And if you consider, like how much he's guaranteed thirty

243
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 5: six point three you have a potential out in twenty

244
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 5: twenty seven. It's which would essentially be a thirty six

245
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,719
Speaker 5: point three million dollars deal. With thirteen million a dead cap,

246
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 5: something that you could definitely get over. But you also

247
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 5: consider the how many other fifth round picks have been

248
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 5: extended like this, you know, like you have to go

249
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 5: back to twenty twenty when you look at George Kittle,

250
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,439
Speaker 5: who has signed a five year extension seventy five million

251
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 5: dollars in twenty twenty, and then the most recent example

252
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 5: was Diammador Leonore in last year, five year extension ninety

253
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 5: two million dollars.

254
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 1: He one of the few. Yeah, the next fifth round picks, Williams.

255
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 3: I mean, that's probably the next fifth round pick that

256
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 3: gets extended like that, and he's running back, so whatever

257
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 3: that number is gonna look.

258
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 5: Like, Yeah, exactly. The impressive for a fifth rounder.

259
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 3: Though, yeahs amazing and I love the proactiveness We've always

260
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 3: if you're one of the people that are upset with

261
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 3: the Micah trade Andrew upset with Deron Bland, you can

262
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 3: maybe tie those two things together because they're kind of

263
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 3: tied together because of the money that you left over. However,

264
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,199
Speaker 3: if you're one of these people that are upset with

265
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 3: how the Micah situation began and the late start to

266
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 3: the Mica situation and then you're mad about Deron Bland.

267
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: Stop it, because this is this is avoiding that. I

268
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: feel like, do you guys get the same sentiment that

269
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: Dallas fans in general were substantially more upset about the

270
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: Luca trade than they worry about Micah. Absolutely, it shouldn't

271
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: hunt one. Yeah, Luca's trade was far more jarring. Yeah,

272
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: that's far more.

273
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 5: And it's surprising too, because you've seen the sort of

274
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 5: writing on the wall with Micah divorce that has been

275
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 5: kind of a buzzword they've used over the last few weeks.

276
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 5: I mean, Good Morning Football used it. You know, it's

277
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 5: it's something that we were sort of alluding to this

278
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 5: whole time. Granted, it was still very surprising. Michael was

279
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 5: at it.

280
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: What was Luca?

281
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 3: It was a player in two first right now, it

282
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 3: was a twenty twenty nine first and two players and

283
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:16,199
Speaker 3: they also sent Max.

284
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 1: But it was also to Josh's point, it was the

285
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: compensation is not even club, not even, But it was

286
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: also the shock value out of nowhere in the middle

287
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: of the night sports wise. For sports historians, especially NFL historians,

288
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,839
Speaker 1: you will recognize this this comp I equate the Luca

289
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: trade to the Coats in the Mayflower Trucks, parting Baltimore

290
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: in what it felt like the middle of the night

291
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: for that franchise to leave the city. I mean for

292
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: it to be what was like eleven eleven thirty pm

293
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: Central time, and all of a sudden, a meteor hits

294
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: the earth and Luca is traded, just springing back a

295
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 1: bunch of emotions, and then and then on top of that,

296
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: you look at the compensation and you say, and that's it. Also, yeah,

297
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: this is true.

298
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 3: When when my wife told me, because we went to

299
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 3: sleep early that night, we have the kids, you know,

300
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 3: like whatever. So I woke up the next day and

301
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 3: my wife, my wife was like, they traded Luca.

302
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: And I was like, stop it, no they did. What

303
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,199
Speaker 1: are you talking about? And I was she was like, no,

304
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 1: it's real, it's everywhere. I was like, well, then what

305
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 1: did we get? Did we get seven first round picks?

306
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 3: Because first round picks in the NBA are not even

307
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 3: close to the equivalent of first round picks in the NFL.

308
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: They're completely weighed differently.

309
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 3: And even with that, the Cowboys got more for Michael

310
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 3: Parsons than the then the MAVs got for Luca. And

311
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 3: that was before the lottery and that whole thing, and

312
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 3: of course Cooper flag whatever. This is not the same

313
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 3: and one is not the same. Let's move on to

314
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 3: the fact that Doron Bland is now a cowboy. He's

315
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 3: locked up over your corners.

316
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: Expected to be available in week one?

317
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 7: You know who else might be expected to be Oh yeah,

318
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 7: let's talk about it, fellas there's an injury or another

319
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 7: first team all no less Yeah, and Trayvon Diggs, dolly

320
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 7: kind of important, kind of important.

321
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: He was a full participant in yesterday's practice. Was that

322
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: where the cow full full full, not limited, not limited

323
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 1: to one hundred percent full full? So why he's playing

324
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: like completely? We asked him, We asked him about in

325
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: the locker room, and he did say, in his words,

326
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: he's a seventy five eighty percent. Basically what that is

327
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 1: is he doesn't want to step over the training staff.

328
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 1: He doesn't want to step over the medical staff. Not

329
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: showing the cards, right, he still has to be cleared.

330
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 1: I mean, if you say seventy five percent, you just

331
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: showed did you say he showed respect to the training staff?

332
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: He did? Whoa he did? You're talking about Trayvon Diggs? Yeah? Absolutely, wow,

333
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: Which is in the first time felt because last week

334
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: I believe he you know, he showed full respect to

335
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: Britt Brown and jimmar and the trending staff. So yeah,

336
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: I know, right, narratives funny how that works. So so yeah,

337
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: or before after Michael Drake, this was before that was

338
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: before he said my team clock it. So Trevon Diggs

339
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 1: full participant, says seventy five to eighty percent chance he

340
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 1: plays against the Eagles. I view it as barn to

341
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: set back over the next day or so. I think

342
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 1: Trayvon Diggs is on the field. Question is is he

343
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 1: on a pitch count?

344
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 8: Is he not?

345
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: But I think he takes my field. That would be

346
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: absolutely huge for the Dallas Cowboys. What did we talk

347
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 1: about timing? Again, which position was in arguably the most

348
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: dire straits? It was cornerback. You didn't know if Trayvon

349
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: would be ready. You didn't know, you know what where

350
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: they would play, deron, so forth and so on. So

351
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: what you do you make sure Dron's locked in, he's

352
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: fully healthy, unlike last year he had the fractured foot

353
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 1: that came out of nowhere. He's going to be on

354
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: the field. Treyvon Diggs well ahead of schedule. Looks like

355
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: he's going to be on the field. Great kyer elam

356
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: coming off of a great training camp. So your top

357
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: three guys are looking real crisp right now. Crisp again.

358
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 5: Treyvon Diggs hasn't played in a while, and no bigger

359
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 5: litmus test than we can one against arguably the best

360
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 5: of the best.

361
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: Surf here it comes in and then flipping to the

362
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: offensive side of the ball. We had another full participant

363
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: that is tracking a little bit ahead of schedule, Tyler

364
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 1: guiding your starting left tackle. I like that guy as

365
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: it stands, it's trending toward taking the field against the

366
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles, and I love what Nate Thomas has shown.

367
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: And I don't know that we talk about pitchcuns. I

368
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 1: don't know that Tyler Goyton will be fully unleashed, but

369
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 1: he is taking full participation in team drill, so it

370
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: looks like he could be on the field as well,

371
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 1: and it could be a combo of he and Nate

372
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:33,719
Speaker 1: Thomas out there trying to trying to stop the good news. Well,

373
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: the good news is is when it comes to the Eagles,

374
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 1: as we foreshadow, the Eagles, when it comes to the Eagles,

375
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 1: they're not the Giants when it comes to the edge rushers.

376
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: They're not some of the better edge and edge rush

377
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: team as far as depth is concerned. Right right, you

378
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,880
Speaker 1: don't point at the Eagles, And Isaiah makes a good point.

379
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: There are guys that you're like, Okay, Jalen Carter is

380
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 1: the headliner, and there's like a Zach Bond and okay,

381
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: those guys can impact games. But at the edge, there's

382
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: no one that you look at and say, oh, that's

383
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 1: that dude, right like you will on the interior. So

384
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,199
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's going to be an easy goal

385
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys on the edges at all. What I'm

386
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: saying is this at the edges may not be as

387
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 1: as difficult a game as if you go against it.

388
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 1: Just week one from last year exactly at that position.

389
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, so you know we'll see Tyler got in

390
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: full participant, Treyvon Diggs full participant, Cowboys training in the

391
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: right direction healthwise. Now, unfortunately, Perryon Winfrey did mispractice with

392
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 1: some back tightness, which now does matter however you feel

393
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 1: about the Michael trade, good, bad, or indifferent. This Kenny

394
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: Clark addition might have just been became extremely fortuitous.

395
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 3: You're saying, Okay, it's like, wait a second, look at

396
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 3: let's not hold no death standpoint.

397
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, So if Perryon Winfrey is not on the field,

398
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: and you already have questions about what Mozzie Smith can

399
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: or cannot be, if Kenny Clark is not in the

400
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: building and Perryon Winfrey is not on the field, do

401
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: I have to finish this comment? Like how much more

402
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: concerning could that be? So what I'm saying is it

403
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: was alright. I'm just saying the timing of because we

404
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: talked about Kenny Clark does upgrade the defense as absolutely

405
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 1: so he went from then That's what I'm saying. Fine,

406
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: but if he's not here and perry On Winfrey is

407
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 1: unable to go, is my point? Now you go from

408
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: bad to you know, holy sugar, honey beam. I'm not

409
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: going to finish the statement because I learn that. All right,

410
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 1: I'm going a little QB vision. We are so done

411
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 1: your studying? Is that a real question?

412
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 9: Yeah?

413
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: So bad? All right?

414
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 3: When we come back here on talking Cowboys, it's time

415
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 3: to preview the Cowboys offense up against that Philadelphia Eagles defense.

416
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: I hate the Eagles. Isaiah breaks it down when we

417
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: come back right after this.

00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 5: play Oh I should I told get that for those

468
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 5: that are the visual at home, but to officially you

469
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 5: have to have to do the voice.

470
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 3: Guys.

471
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 1: Well we're back week one. No, really excited about this matchup,

472
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 1: you guys. Obviously the Philadelphia Eagles, as much as you

473
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: might despise them, you got to put some respect on

474
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 1: their name. No, they are the defending champions. These guys

475
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: return argus arguably the best defense from last year. As

476
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: a Dallas Cowboys now approach them. They're not the same

477
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: defense and Dallas do not have the same offense. So

478
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 1: we can look at last year's film all we want to.

479
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: The reality is last year Dak Prescott did not play

480
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia Egos. He did not at all. The

481
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 1: reality is last year they had a dude in the

482
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 1: middle of named Milton Williams. He's no longer there, former

483
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 1: LA Tech Bulldog. So they have some pieces. They don't

484
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,400
Speaker 1: have big play Slagh who wasn't necessarily a big play

485
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 1: guy nomore. They don't have a handful of guys. However,

486
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: this is Johnson Eagles team returns, and those guys that

487
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,440
Speaker 1: you mentioned are some of the three of the five

488
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 1: guys that are not returning. For these guys as starters,

489
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 1: they had seventeen returners of twenty two. When I say

490
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,120
Speaker 1: that they let's get to what they want to do. Okay,

491
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 1: what they want to do and what they have shown

492
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 1: against you in the past is these guys want to

493
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: be a single high team. They will show two high safeties.

494
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: And the reason why this is important, listeners, is because

495
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 1: that is the first thing that the quarterback identifies when

496
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 1: he comes to the line of scrimmage. Where are the safeties?

497
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 1: So if I find my safeties, those guys are back there,

498
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,959
Speaker 1: they look like they're playing too high. All right, Now,

499
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: I work my way down towards the line of scrimmage.

500
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 1: When a line of scrimmage, you guys heard it. I

501
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys listen to the our dot

502
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 1: com Dallas Cowboys dot Com a lot of great interviews,

503
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: but Dak Prescott is on record saying that they don't

504
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: show a lot, they don't do a lot, and that's

505
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,440
Speaker 1: very true. These guys play are very simplistic vig fangio

506
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:21,959
Speaker 1: fungo defense. However, they are very selective and effective at

507
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 1: what they do. The big fellas upfront allow for them

508
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: to play simplistic. They allow for them to play fast.

509
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: And when I say the big fellas, let's talk about

510
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 1: it Jalen Carter ninety eight, you gotta find him. You

511
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: gotta know ezactly where he's at, and you better buckle

512
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: up your bootstraps and tighten up your belt because he

513
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: is coming downhill. He's a big force who not only

514
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: can stuff the a gaps, but he also can pass rush.

515
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 1: He's a problem. He is the problem on the defense

516
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: for the Philadelphia Eagles. There's another dude who necessarily hasn't

517
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 1: played up to the level. I feel he's capable of

518
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 1: playing that. But he's a house in Jordan Davis that's

519
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,400
Speaker 1: gonna be playing right next to him. Those two big

520
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: fellas in the middle are huge. They allow for their

521
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: linebackers to run and hit, and their linebackers are active.

522
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,719
Speaker 1: Their linebackers are very smart, and their linebackers are very

523
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 1: physical Zach Bond is a problem. Nolan Smith, who actually

524
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 1: had an opportunity to get to know a little bit

525
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: this offseason by being on GMFB. He might be the

526
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 1: one of the most passionate football players that I've met.

527
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: Go dogs, I wasn't going to. I wasn't going to.

528
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 6: Like.

529
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: The only other, only other player that has given me

530
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 1: that feeling in their presence is Demo. Oh cool, likes

531
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 1: he's like that, like like super passionate, wants to learn

532
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 1: this one of our guys, Yeah, for sure, for sure.

533
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: But those guys and the reason why I say you

534
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 1: have to highlight those two guys. You highlight those two

535
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: linebackers and then you have to obviously go straight to

536
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: Cooper Degen. Cooper Degen from to me is like another

537
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: even though he's a cover nickel and all that stuff,

538
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: he likes to insert himself into the box along with

539
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,439
Speaker 1: read blanker ship as well. Huh he has hands too.

540
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: But those guys, the reason why I bring those guys

541
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: up is because that front line doesn't allow your offensive

542
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: line to get past them. Right. So if you're blocking

543
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 1: these guys up front, you have five offensive linemen, but

544
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: two of those guys are taking up your middle three. Now,

545
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: the defensive ends, your tackles are responsible for those guys.

546
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,959
Speaker 1: Last time I checked, that's five on four. And if

547
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 1: it's five on four, then who can get up to

548
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 1: those three guys at the second level. Nobody. That's when

549
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: it's a problem. Nolan Smith is fast and he is decisive.

550
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: Zach Bond, we know what he's able to do. He's

551
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,640
Speaker 1: able to force turnovers by being physical. He's a smart,

552
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:48,360
Speaker 1: intellectual guy. So that front seven presents a problem. There

553
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 1: where I think that they are exposed now in twenty

554
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: twenty five is in their secondary. Because these guys want

555
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: to be a single high team. They'll show too high,

556
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: but then they'll rotate their safety down into the box

557
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 1: for run support because they want to take away that

558
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 1: element of your game. They want to get you passing

559
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 1: the ball. They can no longer do that. That's our

560
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: assumption before we see our non Villanella version of this offense.

561
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 1: The assumption is that they have to now make some

562
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,399
Speaker 1: business decisions with their secondary. The offensive line has to

563
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,880
Speaker 1: deal with those guys up front. That's your own problem, okay,

564
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 1: and you got to figure out how to establish some

565
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 1: kind of run game and get up to the second

566
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,680
Speaker 1: level combo blocks all that thing. You have to establish

567
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: a run game. If you are able to establish a

568
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,160
Speaker 1: run game, now can they roll Can they truly roll

569
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: that safety into the box and do what they want

570
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 1: to do with a vic Fangil defense. Whenever he blitzes,

571
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 1: he blitzes off the edge. It is not really Oh

572
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,920
Speaker 1: that's really scary. You know where it's coming from, the

573
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: reason why that's a problem for them potentially is because

574
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,680
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is back. He can identify what you're doing.

575
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 1: Jake Ferguson is back, and you have to have somebody

576
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 1: who can cover him. And if you're either going to

577
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,959
Speaker 1: cover him with a safety or you're going to cover

578
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: him with one of those high intellectual linebackers that we

579
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: talked about, do you really want to use one of

580
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 1: those linebackers to stick Jake Ferguson or do you want

581
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,120
Speaker 1: those guys in the box coming downhill? I've read those

582
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 1: guys be in the box, okay, So if those guys

583
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,479
Speaker 1: are in the box, then who's responsible for Jake Ferguson? Right?

584
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 1: And if you want to play single high and have

585
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: a safety playing Jake Ferguson, now you are now forcing

586
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 1: a position. Last time I checked to have one guy

587
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 1: sticking CD Lamb and one guy sticking George Pickens. Yep,

588
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:33,680
Speaker 1: business decisions, business decisions. If you are able to keep

589
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 1: them honest, keep your receivers out there. You line up

590
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 1: CD Lamb on one side, you line up George Pickens

591
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: on the other side, You line up Jake ferguson right.

592
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 1: And these guys want to stay too high. You have

593
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 1: to run the ball absolutely like it is beyond important

594
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 1: that Dallas finds a way to have enough somewhat effective run.

595
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that you got to rush for one

596
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five hundred. You have to be able

597
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: to get three yards a pop.

598
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 5: What is a tall task When you're saying that the

599
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 5: defensive line is always pushing down, getting past that first

600
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 5: level is going to be tough to begin with. But

601
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 5: I think you need to get your guys out in

602
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 5: open space, yes, which I think is what when you

603
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 5: can lean on a Cavanti turpin out in space.

604
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: I know he's a receiver.

605
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 5: Now they're putting more of an emphasis on him as

606
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 5: your third guy, but get him out in space.

607
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: If you can get if you can make them cover, Yeah,

608
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: once you're in eleven personnel, right, and whether that's Jalen

609
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: Tolbert or whether that's Cavante Turpin. Let's say, for instance,

610
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 1: you put Cavante Turpin out there as your slot receiver.

611
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 1: Now you're in a position to get these guys again,

612
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: it goes back to the run. If you can establish

613
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: a run, now you can do your play action. And

614
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: if you can do your play action now Jalen Carter

615
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 1: right now, big Baby Davis, all those guys have to

616
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 1: do what they have to run sidelined to sideline. That's

617
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: not what they want to do. They don't want to

618
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: go sideline to sideline. They want to go forward. And

619
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: if you can get these guys going with a run scheme,

620
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 1: going linearly right towards the sideline, and now they have

621
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: to respect that. And now all of a sudd Dak

622
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 1: Prescott boots out. Now you have Jakes Ferguson in the flats,

623
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 1: you have Cavante Turpin at the second level. You have

624
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb or George Pickens, two of the best deep

625
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 1: ball threat, high contested catch guys in the league, going

626
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: out there on deep posts and deep goal routes. These

627
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 1: guys safeties have to give, they have to respect that.

628
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of space in the middle for

629
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 1: Ferg and Turp or Ferg and Tolbert to work. That's

630
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 1: what you want to get to. That's how you can

631
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 1: hurt these guys. But it all starts with your ability

632
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: to run for three or four yards of pop. Yeah,

633
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: and if you can do that and successfully is ideal.

634
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: Obviously you want to run successfully successfully, but if you

635
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: can at least establish the thread of it, force them

636
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: to respect him consistency. Consistency then, and we talked about

637
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: this with Dak Prescott in the locker room. It was

638
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: an off the cuff, off the record conversation, but Dak

639
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: was basically saying the same thing. He was like, man,

640
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: you would love to see Dak hitting CD and pickings

641
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: on every play. He was like, but we got to

642
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 1: establish this run so that we can play off guess

643
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: what the play action and go from there. Because if

644
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: you can play off of the play action, I'm gonna

645
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: tell you right now, there's a reason that Nick Fangio

646
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: hasn't named his starting defensive backs just yet. Yep, you

647
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 1: because it doesn't matter, sir ye Cooper Degenie and good

648
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: luck buddy, who else? Right, QUINNYA. Mitchell, He's not. He

649
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: doesn't have the stripes, the stripes on the wall. He

650
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: doesn't have the skins on the wall. Okay, and he

651
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: has some coverage issues. And I'm gonna tell you say,

652
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 1: go dogs. Okay. For as much as we know what

653
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: Jalen Carter is and Jordan Davis can be and Nolan

654
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: Smith can be. I said this before the draft, and

655
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to stand here and say it again. Ringo

656
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 1: is toast, absolute toast. He doesn't stand a chance. However,

657
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 1: there's a chance that he's going to be one of

658
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: the starting boundary corners when the Cowboys take the field.

659
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 1: I'm taking CD and or George Pickens against most cornerbacks

660
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: most of the time, against Mitchell and Ringo. If you

661
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: establish this run holy and established. And I know people

662
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: listen when I say established. I can't speak for anybody

663
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,480
Speaker 1: else when I say established the rent. I need three yards.

664
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,080
Speaker 1: I need like most people are gonna say I need

665
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: five or six. No, no, no, no, let's be realistic.

666
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 1: If I can get three yards on first down, if

667
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 1: I can get three yards on second down, third and four,

668
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: I'll take third and four all day. Long with the

669
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: weapons that I have at the receiver and tight in

670
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: position third and four is not bad. It's not because

671
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: it still gives you several options. You everything.

672
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 5: You just can't get behind the line on first you

673
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 5: cannot and get yourself in second and long situations. That's

674
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 5: just time and time again. What we were faced with

675
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 5: with the Mike McCarthy era and now this offense, what

676
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 5: it has going for it is the fact that it's

677
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 5: not like that. It can be disguised in other ways.

678
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 5: What did Breton Choannenhimmer say in is very first press

679
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,719
Speaker 5: press conference, It's like, we can do that, we can

680
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 5: add motion, we can hide things. The biggest thing that

681
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 5: the Cowboys have going for them is the freaking the

682
00:32:58,600 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 5: glasses with the nose on it.

683
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 1: They're disguised, right They have the what do you got

684
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 1: going on over here?

685
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 4: About? Like they can do that all day. That's why

686
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 4: they've been vanilla this whole preseason. It's because of this

687
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 4: game right here. I hope so, and I hope that's

688
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 4: the plan. I hope that's the master plan because we

689
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 4: kind of felt that way about McCarthy in his first year.

690
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 1: That first game was rough. Good difference, being though to

691
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 1: your point, tell the difference being the league had plenty

692
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 1: of years of film on McCarthy as a play caller.

693
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: How much film do they have on Schottenheimer as a

694
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: play caller. Not I'm not say not much. But to

695
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: that point, they have that Jackson, they don't have that

696
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 1: with this. You're right, You're right. So my point, there's

697
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 1: Dak curks not a lot of data that that cook.

698
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 1: But before you let that cook establish the run, you

699
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: have established the run. Because Schottenheimer did say one of

700
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: his first press conferences as head coach, he said, kind

701
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: of tongue in cheek, Unfortunately he let Russ cook a

702
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 1: little bit more than he would have liked because he

703
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 1: kind of bought into the hole the fandom want let

704
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: Ross cook in that whole mantra, and he kind of

705
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 1: let Russ do a little bit more than I think

706
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: he's learned from that and he understands that, hey, setting

707
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,240
Speaker 1: up the run, established in the run will free up everything.

708
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 1: And Isaiah has said it time and time again on

709
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 1: this panel the Best Cowboys Podcast on Earth, it I

710
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 1: mentioned that, Yeah, I Dak Prescott plays the best when

711
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: he's playing off of play action.

712
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 3: There I got a couple of stats for you here.

713
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 3: This is just cold hard stats, like, so this is

714
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 3: factuald So if you want to disagree with it, then

715
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 3: go ahead, but it's factual. Dak Prescott is four and

716
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 3: one versus the Eagles since twenty twenty one, effectual two

717
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 3: and one when Philly plays Jalen Hurts. So you can't

718
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 3: even throw that out there that he hasn't played Jalen Hurts.

719
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,720
Speaker 3: He's won two of the three games. Only starting quarterback

720
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 3: with multiple wins versus the Eagles since that twenty twenty

721
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 3: one season.

722
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 1: The only one you want to.

723
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 3: Know his stats in those games one with it four

724
00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 3: and one record, Like we said, tasty completion percentage seventy

725
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:06,240
Speaker 3: delightful passing yards per game, three oh five passing touchdown

726
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:07,399
Speaker 3: to interception ratio.

727
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,839
Speaker 1: This is where it gets interesting. Sixteen to one oh

728
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: passer seven and a half.

729
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 3: What if we said all off season about this weaponry

730
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:20,240
Speaker 3: around Dak Prescott.

731
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: Man, it's the what the.

732
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 3: It's been in quite some time, if not ever ever,

733
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 3: maybe ever maybe ever still yet to be seen. And

734
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 3: that's not factual yet, but we'll get on paper. It'll

735
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 3: get there on paper. I don't have any concerns about

736
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 3: the offense. I think the offense will be just fine.

737
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 3: Will the running game is a little bit of a concern,

738
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 3: and I'd.

739
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 1: Say, you haven't seen Vane Williams. I've been concerned on

740
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 1: that all year. I'm not concerned the passing game.

741
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 3: I'm fine because but I think the passing games will

742
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 3: open up the run game. It's kind of vice versa

743
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 3: than what we've always thought.

744
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 5: But I think in the chemistry the offensive line, you

745
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:58,439
Speaker 5: haven't necessarily seen that yet.

746
00:35:58,719 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 1: At full force.

747
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 3: There's gonna be some learning curve, absolutely, but I'm not

748
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 3: totally worried about the offense. However, No, yeah, when we

749
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 3: come back, Yeah, I am a little worried about the defense.

750
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,319
Speaker 1: Let's talk about it when we come back with more

751

00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 8: let's hear from my next caller.

776
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 10: Would you, Dear Doctor, My friend supported me during a

777
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 10: tough time.

778
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,839
Speaker 1: But what's the right gift that says thanks for being

779
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 1: a soldier? To cry out?

780
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 8: Okay, this one's easy, I say, give her a delicious

781
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,840
Speaker 8: Doctor Pepper. Nothing says thanks good better than one of

782
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,680
Speaker 8: a kind soda. Yes, any Doctor Pepper flavor will do.

783
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 8: Now just a reminder that I don't need to be

784
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 8: a real doctor to know that Doctor Pepper is the

785

Speaker 3: Josh Rodriguez, Isaiah Stanback, Chris Beam in the back of

798
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 3: Kyle Yeomans. Cowboys Defense versus Philadelphia, and then we've got

799
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,239
Speaker 3: our pick them just for this game to day. We'll

800
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 3: pick the rest of the games on Friday when we

801
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 3: come back. But what position group will be challenged the

802
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 3: most by this Philadelphia offense?

803
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,479
Speaker 1: Because they can win in a number of different, number

804
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 1: of different ways. Answer, just them, all of them, all

805
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 1: of them think about it. I mean they, I mean

806
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: it goes without saying Sakwon Barkley can do Saquon Barkley

807
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,239
Speaker 1: things in that offensive line. See if Landon Dickerson, which,

808
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,840
Speaker 1: by the way, injury update, Landar Dickerson did not practice yesterday,

809
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: so we'll see if he takes the field. He was

810
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,240
Speaker 1: kind of a similar timeline of GUEI yes, I remember

811
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: correctly where they fought, almost quite literally, they thought it

812
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: was going to be a season ender.

813
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 3: He gets carted off during an open practice at Lincoln Financial.

814
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,320
Speaker 3: People are saying it's the end of his season, and

815
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:20,400
Speaker 3: then all of a sudden it comes back.

816
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 1: It's like four to five weeks. Yes, there's a chance

817
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 1: he misses the game, but I mean Sakwon Barkley is

818
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: going to do his thing with or without Landon Dickerson. Obviously,

819
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 1: without Landon Dickerson they take a slight step back, but

820
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 1: offensive line still one of the best in the league.

821
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:40,319
Speaker 1: And then aj Brown, DeVante Smith, Dallas Goddard. Yeah, those

822
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 1: guys are kind of good at what they do.

823
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,360
Speaker 5: The secondary is a big question mark for me. I mean,

824
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 5: if you're looking at Trayvon Diggs, who hasn't necessarily played

825
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 5: in a while coming back from injury, and you look

826
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 5: at dron Bland, who had a bad offseason, he got

827
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:56,799
Speaker 5: his contractstention, so I mean he's he had a down year,

828
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:57,319
Speaker 5: let's say.

829
00:39:57,920 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 1: I mean he lost almost half the season exactly.

830
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 5: And then you're looking at it guy like kyer Elam

831
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,479
Speaker 5: who has been, for me, like the best defensive player

832
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 5: you've had since OTAs.

833
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, just amazing. I don't see who could argue that

834
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,120
Speaker 1: he needs to be that dude on Thursdays. He needs

835
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 1: to be that dude I put that. We've seen I

836
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 1: pretty yer above Maris.

837
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:24,240
Speaker 5: But speaking of Mares, is he going to spy Jordan

838
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 5: Jalen Hurts all game?

839
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 3: Like?

840
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 1: Are we going to have a spy for Jalen Hurt?

841
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: That's a good question.

842
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 3: I know in Isaiah in the past you've said you

843
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 3: don't want to spy Jalen Hurts because they can hurt

844
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 3: you in different ways.

845
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: Right. Yeah, last year, if you go back to the

846
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 1: first game of last year, Dallas actually did a pretty

847
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,760
Speaker 1: good job up front of kind of keeping him contained

848
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 1: for the most part, but then he got out right

849
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 1: when when he got out of the pocket, if he

850
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 1: was able to escape because the Marvin Overstaan was on

851
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 1: his tail in that game, once he got out, there

852
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 1: was nobody responsible for him. So like his his ability

853
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: to extend drives with his legs and getting out the pocket,

854
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 1: like that killed Dallas in that first game. It really did. Yeah,

855
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,399
Speaker 1: So I mean, I'm not a big fan of using

856
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 1: somebody to spying because they have so many other weapons.

857
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 1: Whenever you spy, you're taking that person out away from

858
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 1: a coverage. But at the same time, if he's able

859
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: to escape the pocket some way, if you're not able

860
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 1: to collapse that pocket and not allow him out, if

861
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 1: he does get out, then he'll hurt you. But I

862
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 1: will say I do think Marris is going to impact

863
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 1: this game in a major way. I think the linebackers

864
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:29,280
Speaker 1: are really going to be featured heavily in the outcome

865
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: of this game as far as Cowboys linebackers are concerned.

866
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,840
Speaker 1: Because Cowboys are still trying to figure out the defensive interior.

867
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: They need to figure out what the post Micah era

868
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 1: looks like as far as rotation on the ends. So

869
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 1: it looks like Dante's going to get the start. Sam

870
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 1: Williams going to get the start opposite Dante Williams, and

871
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 1: then of course you have Esroko and Kneeling. Those young

872
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 1: guys will come in and hopefully they can those that

873
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: four pack, which is a mix of proven ability in

874
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 1: Dante and very high ceilings and the three young guys

875
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:00,839
Speaker 1: I just talked about. I'm calm fitting in those guys

876
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 1: and they can kind of get off the ends. But

877
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 1: that defensive tackle position is Kenny Clark going to hit

878
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,280
Speaker 1: the ground immediately for the Cowboys. I'm confident OsO Diggi

879
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 1: Zula and I love what Solomon Thomas has been in

880
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 1: training camp. Looks like he under my Matt Eberflus, looks

881
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 1: like he's ready to cook. But that nose tackle position

882
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,440
Speaker 1: has me a little bit nervous until I see what

883
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 1: Kenny Clark looks like in the mix. So that means

884
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,720
Speaker 1: the linebackers are going to play a huge part. Marist

885
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:25,879
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna eat well. Kenneth Murray will see

886
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 1: what Jack Sambourne can do. And Damone Clark. Don't don't

887
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:31,920
Speaker 1: go sleeping on Damon. He has He's coming off the

888
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: best offseason of his career.

889
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 5: One of those things that, at least defensive wise, that

890
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 5: concerns me is Sam Williams starting at edge. To me,

891
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 5: I mean, it's been a while since we've seen Sam

892
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 5: Williams play, and when he did, he was getting a

893
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,399
Speaker 5: lot of flags. It was very undisciplined for He talked

894
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,959
Speaker 5: about it. He talked about it yesterday, and you hope

895
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 5: that the maturing process has begun and you know it's

896
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,800
Speaker 5: set here with him now. I'm concerned that something like

897
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 5: that might creep up. I'm concerned it might not be

898
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 5: a clean game. I'm concerned of the flags that have

899
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 5: sort of alienated the Dallas Cowboys amongst other teams in

900
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 5: the NFL over the past few seasons. I mean, for

901
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 5: as long as I've been watching him, the flags have

902
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 5: been an issue. So it's concerning there. The start for

903
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,880
Speaker 5: him is huge. I hope he's able to capitalize and

904
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 5: keep that spot.

905
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 1: I think that really quickly. On the penalty point, I

906
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:22,400
Speaker 1: find it refreshing that Sam, when I was speaking to

907
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 1: him yesterday in the locker room, that he proactively mentioned

908
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: penalties on himself. So I asked him, I said, hey,

909
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 1: you know, it's been eighteen plus months since you've taken

910
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 1: the field. How hungry just to describe your hungry. How

911
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 1: hungry are you? He said? Very? But I'm being patient

912
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:40,560
Speaker 1: because if I allow myself to get too hungry or

913
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:42,919
Speaker 1: to get too anxious about it his words, he said,

914
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: that's when Sam starts getting penalties. He's very self aware now,

915
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 1: more so than he's ever been in that capacity. So

916
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 1: I would like to see it translate into lack of flags.

917
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,239
Speaker 1: But the first step is to be aware, and it

918
00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 1: sounds like he's very aware of I'm concerning about the

919
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: D line as a whole. As a whole, I'm not.

920
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 1: I'm there too. I'm not confident in the I think

921
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 1: you need one more piece in the interior defensive line.

922
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: You he made a huge stride forward, obviously by bringing Canny,

923
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 1: but but then that's a step back at your edge,

924
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 1: rushers your edge. I'm not. I'm not very confident in

925
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: the edges in terms of run stopping ability. Oh okay,

926
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 1: I was going to say, I think they'll get after

927
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 1: him just fine, But I don't think it will be

928
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,319
Speaker 1: the same though, So the reason and it the same,

929
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:30,800
Speaker 1: that's the same. I'm not. I'm not making that comparison

930
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,480
Speaker 1: at all. I'm just I'm I am on a wait

931
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 1: and see with Sam Williams. I from what I've seen

932
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:39,799
Speaker 1: from Sam Williams, his PAD level is way too high.

933
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,879
Speaker 1: I'm not convincing his variety and his ability to pass rush.

934
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: I'm just not. I hope, I hope, but you know,

935
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,719
Speaker 1: we say it all the time. Hope is not a strategy.

936
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 1: But I have not personally seen enough from Sam Williams

937
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 1: to feel comfortable and confident that he's going to make

938
00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,280
Speaker 1: an impact. That's how I to with Marshaw Kneeland. Marshaan

939
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 1: Kneeland to me, Marshaon Kneeland to me, as an interior

940
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 1: D lineman, that's just undersize. That's what he is to me.

941
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,879
Speaker 1: That's what he's been since he's gotten here. I've said it, Yeah,

942
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:07,759
Speaker 1: but he's an undersized interior D lineman. It could they

943
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:09,880
Speaker 1: call him a d n all day long. He's not

944
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 1: a pass rushing d n ye, So you know he

945
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 1: is though, he's a run stopping d well. That's what

946
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 1: he's supposed to, That's what's supposed to be. He hasn't

947
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,879
Speaker 1: been that. So as you're concerned about the edges being yeah,

948
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: Kneeland is one of the best of that four pack,

949
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 1: and I think we're gonna see more three four than

950
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 1: we than we expect. I really think that was a

951
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:30,320
Speaker 1: huge reason why Kenny Clark was such a huge addition.

952
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:33,480
Speaker 1: I think adding him, now you have a true nose, right,

953
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,080
Speaker 1: you have a true multiple and now right your your

954
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 1: deepest room to me, right now is a surprisingly linebacker. Right,

955
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:44,280
Speaker 1: so prosely, now after the trade, right, you're this surprisingly linebacker.

956
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: So now that's your deepest room, and that's where you

957
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,479
Speaker 1: have the most guys that can play. Then Kenny Clark

958
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:54,680
Speaker 1: knows also tackle. Solomon Thomas tackle, and you have two

959
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 1: stand up ends you could put. You could put Dante

960
00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:00,719
Speaker 1: Feller Junior, you could put Aery, put Sam Williams, or

961
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 1: you can put you know whoever.

962
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 5: I was gonna ask you about that. Do you think

963
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 5: he's gonna provide more for you than Sam Williams.

964
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:08,800
Speaker 1: Yes, in past rushing ability.

965
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 8: Yes.

966
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 1: I think It's gonna take a while for him to

967
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:10,839
Speaker 1: get going.

968
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's gonna have his and that's probably why he's

969
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:12,839
Speaker 5: not starting.

970
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:14,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's gonna have to learn. But I think that

971
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,720
Speaker 1: his ceiling is substantially higher than no shot at Nyland.

972
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:19,319
Speaker 1: I just think that he's a more I think he's

973
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 1: more athletic. That's just call it what it is. That

974
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 1: first step is insane. There's not there's not one thing

975
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,480
Speaker 1: that I point. So when I look at impact players,

976
00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:27,800
Speaker 1: I look, I say, hey, what's the one thing that

977
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:29,920
Speaker 1: I that I feel fully confident that you can go

978
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: be pretty dominant at no matter who you line up against? Right?

979
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,280
Speaker 1: And I don't know what that is for Sam Williams,

980
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 1: And I don't know what that is for Marshawn Neland

981
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: that's fair because the only one that's proven in that

982
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 1: four pack is Dante Felt. Yeah, yeah, Dante Falla, Go

983
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,279
Speaker 1: get quarterback, Go get QB. So you know that, right,

984
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:45,359
Speaker 1: go get after it. But like when you go down

985
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,840
Speaker 1: the line, what are the things like Son and Thomas

986
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 1: also DIGGI zu, both of you guys are pretty much

987
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 1: the same guy. Go get vertical right holding the fourth

988
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:54,480
Speaker 1: don't necessarily know that, but you guys can get in

989
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 1: the seams and get vertical and create some some internal pressure,

990
00:46:57,719 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 1: go all the way across the line. And so what's

991
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 1: your one thing that you do? What's how can you

992
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,279
Speaker 1: impact us tremendously on this game? I'm not sure that

993
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,680
Speaker 1: you can circle that for every player on that front.

994
00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:11,520
Speaker 3: Seven Yet, Yeah, time to pick who do you feel

995
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:17,320
Speaker 3: like is gonna win Week one against the Dallas Cowboys

996
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:18,520
Speaker 3: in the Philadelphia Eagles.

997
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 1: I'm saying it very subdued here because I feel like

998
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:23,360
Speaker 1: it's gonna.

999
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 3: Be a tough one either way. We're gonna come back

1000
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,520
Speaker 3: on Friday and the Cowboys are either gonna win the

1001
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 3: super Bowl or they're gonna be seven.

1002
00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:32,359
Speaker 1: There's one of the other. Got there one more fun

1003
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 1: fact out there that we're not talking about enough, right there?

1004
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:38,319
Speaker 1: All right, this offense has a new play caller. Yep,

1005
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: Kevin Patulo. Okay, I don't know if that's how to

1006
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 1: pronounce it, but Kevin Patulo higher or how you want

1007
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 1: to say it. Anyways, this is a sixth center. This

1008
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:49,400
Speaker 1: is a sixth play caller in six consecutive years. And

1009
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts His ear hasn't been a problem yet though

1010
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 1: not yet. But this dude has never called plays. He's

1011
00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,360
Speaker 1: never called play So that that's a portion of this

1012
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 1: game that you have to take into consideration because he

1013
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 1: is going to try to now imitate what he has

1014
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:08,920
Speaker 1: seen before. Right, He's either a gonna try to put

1015
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:11,839
Speaker 1: his own flare on it, or he'd be gonna try

1016
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 1: to imitate what Kellen Moore did previously. You have to

1017
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:16,880
Speaker 1: he has to figure out who he is and what

1018
00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 1: what they are as an offense. There. I would imagine

1019
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,279
Speaker 1: he's going to try his best to imitate because you

1020
00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 1: don't want to mess up that formula that they had.

1021
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 1: But that's something to pay attention to as the game

1022
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 1: goes on as well, because if there is some high

1023
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,400
Speaker 1: level competition early and they're not being dominant like they

1024
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,440
Speaker 1: probably assumed that they would be, then what does that

1025
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 1: oc start to do? What does he do?

1026
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 3: What?

1027
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 1: What bag does he does? He going to the Kellen

1028
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,120
Speaker 1: Moore bag and say, well, Kellen Moore would do this.

1029
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,080
Speaker 1: He says, no, screw this, this is my offense. Now

1030
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,359
Speaker 1: what we're doing something to watch? I'll jump off. I'll

1031
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,200
Speaker 1: jump off the porch with it. Man, this this is

1032
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,480
Speaker 1: going to be It's gonna be a dog fight. I'm

1033
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 1: seeing a lot of you know, the Eagles are going

1034
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 1: to basically walk the Cowboys out of the state. I

1035
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:01,680
Speaker 1: don't feel like that's going to be the case, especially

1036
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:04,759
Speaker 1: when you look at the Cowboys offense and we talk

1037
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: about that versus the secondary in Philly, and yeah, you

1038
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 1: have some issues with Saquan and aj and Davante and Jalen. Yeah,

1039
00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:17,000
Speaker 1: but I think that this offense just absolutely finds a

1040
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 1: way to exploit the secondary. I don't think it's going

1041
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 1: to be an explosive game, but I think it'll have

1042
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 1: explosive plays for the Cowboys. I think Cowboys finished with

1043
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:28,759
Speaker 1: twenty seven points and I think they win on the

1044
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:32,160
Speaker 1: leg of Brandon Aubrey. I think twenty seven to twenty

1045
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:34,840
Speaker 1: four and it goes to the wire sixty four. So

1046
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:40,760
Speaker 1: you're picking the coutek one. Yeah, that's true, but hopefully

1047
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,359
Speaker 1: not because if you depending on the sixty four yarder

1048
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:45,320
Speaker 1: to win the game means you didn't move the balls

1049
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 1: easy down the field. It's easy money, but don't look

1050
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 1: easier money forty thirty, you know what I mean. So, yeah,

1051
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:55,160
Speaker 1: I think Brandon Aubrey gets you this game at the

1052
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:57,399
Speaker 1: at the buzzer quickly because we have to go yep.

1053
00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:02,439
Speaker 5: I'm going to say Dallas twenty Philadelphia twenty three.

1054
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:06,280
Speaker 1: Wow, So we're picking to win two Cowboys.

1055
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:10,880
Speaker 3: I see this game almost like what Baltimore was last year.

1056
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,320
Speaker 3: You remember that Week three match up against Baltimore. It

1057
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 3: was it was at home, but going into it, Dallas

1058
00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:19,240
Speaker 3: was not playing well. They had just gotten their doors

1059
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 3: blown off by New Orleans and Baltimore was was trying

1060
00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,040
Speaker 3: to figure their things out. But they were the better

1061
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:28,439
Speaker 3: team across the board, and I thought they were gonna

1062
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 3: get run out of the gym, and they didn't.

1063
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 1: They fought back.

1064
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:32,800
Speaker 3: It was twenty five to twenty two as the final.

1065
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:34,880
Speaker 3: They just fought and fought and fought, and they were

1066
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,000
Speaker 3: never really out of it. I think that's gonna be

1067
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:39,279
Speaker 3: the case this time. I think they're gonna be right there.

1068
00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 3: They need to make one or two big plays, but

1069
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,200
Speaker 3: they just probably won't get it. In Week one, I

1070
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:46,399
Speaker 3: think they fall thirty four to thirty one.

1071
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:47,880
Speaker 1: On the road. That's a lot of points.

1072
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:49,719
Speaker 3: Well, I do think it's gonna be a lot of Again,

1073
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:51,920
Speaker 3: here we are. I think I think the offense is

1074
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 3: going to click. Yeah, I think the offense is gonna click.

1075
00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:56,600
Speaker 3: I think Philadelphia is just gonna click a little bit

1076
00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 3: more interesting.

1077
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,040
Speaker 1: I don't know who the Cowboys are yet, that's fair.

1078
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 1: I know who the Eagles are. Fair. There are a

1079
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 1: number of players that we have to see. Who are

1080
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:08,720
Speaker 1: you going to be your impact players, specifically on defense,

1081
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 1: and until we have that answer, I have to give

1082
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: the nod to Philadelphia for that reason. I think it's

1083
00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:19,759
Speaker 1: gonna be twenty seven to twenty one Philly, And just

1084
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,759
Speaker 1: because I know who their guys are, we're sitting here

1085
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 1: with question marks over our head in terms of who

1086
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,360
Speaker 1: those guys are. For Dallas, Pickens gets at least one touchdown,

1087
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:28,840
Speaker 1: and I think he's going to be one of the

1088
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,399
Speaker 1: huge determined effectors in the Cowboys getting us.

1089
00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:33,680
Speaker 3: Hopefully so hopefully so either way, we're gonna be back

1090
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:35,600
Speaker 3: on Friday to break it down, win or lose for

1093
00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:42,240
Speaker 3: opinion on his back to show up today?

1094
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,160
