Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
Speaker 2: Cowboys.
Speaker 3: This He's Talking Cowboys, springing live from the Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 3: World head hours at.
Speaker 2: The Star in Frisco.
Speaker 4: Six second Testcott tis It, Henny Faint touchdown.
Speaker 1: And now your hosts, Isaiah Standback, Nick Harris, John Mashoda,
Speaker 1: and Kyle Yeomans.

Speaker 5: It with Your Chest for Friday.
Speaker 2: Here on Talking Cowboys.
Speaker 5: As Isaiah Standback's ready to go, Nick Harris is ready
Speaker 5: to go. John Matchoda is already laughing at Isaiah. And
Speaker 5: we've got Chris Beam in the back of Kyle Yeomans.
Speaker 5: Welcome in Cowboys Nation as the Cowboys get ready to
Speaker 5: the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football. You've been
Speaker 5: waiting all.
Speaker 6: Off Doug, all right, I have been. I've been doing
Speaker 6: push ups all freaking off season for this. Kyle peculating
Speaker 6: pic trels are ready to go. Wow, Wow, that's right,
Speaker 6: that's just happening.
Speaker 2: This is a normal thing on Talking Guys.
Speaker 5: This is the first regular season Say It with your
Speaker 5: Chest Friday. But here's here's really the premise behind say
Speaker 5: it with the chest Fridays. You bring the energy and
Speaker 5: you don't hold back, right, that's the whole conversation. We
Speaker 5: got to give a ton of energy going into the
Speaker 5: weekend because of course, the Cowboys play actual, meaningful football
Speaker 5: and we.
Speaker 2: Saw some meeting in full football last night.
Speaker 5: How about Dan Campbell and the fighting meal's going and
Speaker 5: getting it from the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 6: New as soon as we saw those guys on the
Speaker 6: schedule for this season, I knew those guys were going
Speaker 6: to be a problem. Yeah, complete problem. I don't care
Speaker 6: you can say, oh, Kelsey wasn't it. I don't care
Speaker 6: what you want to say. That team has been doing
Speaker 6: nothing but building ever since Dan Campbell has step foot
Speaker 6: in that building.
Speaker 7: And kudos to him and his entire staff.
Speaker 8: A g.
Speaker 6: Aaron Glenn, my old teammate from here in Dallas doing
Speaker 6: this thing as well. I mean, those guys, they have
Speaker 6: a heck of a coaching staff. It's really cool to
Speaker 6: see former players being successful as coaches and going back
Speaker 6: and pulling up some of that some of the former
Speaker 6: players as well. So kudos to that, to that coaching staff.
Speaker 6: Until they played Dallas.
Speaker 9: That December stretch has got a whole lot more difficult.
Speaker 10: Well, when you're going from Philly, Buffalo, Miami and now Detroit,
Speaker 10: that's gonna be just as tough for the defense at least.
Speaker 10: So Man, so you're saying we can't drop the energy
Speaker 10: like Canarius Tony?
Speaker 7: Yeah, how about that on my frock?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I started them, y'all started. Yeah, I kind of
Speaker 2: had to.
Speaker 6: I was like, you knew the ball was going to him,
Speaker 6: So it's like it makes sense. You know, he's a
Speaker 6: he's a heck of a receiver when he catches, and
Speaker 6: then he knew he was gonna get the brock last
Speaker 6: night and yeah, he had a poopsies.
Speaker 8: I would say that, I would say this, they look
Speaker 8: like the front runner to make a move for a
Speaker 8: wide receiver at some point.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean you can't.
Speaker 8: There's just too much riding on this on what this
Speaker 8: team has to just be like, well, no, we'll figure
Speaker 8: it out. One of these guys will have to step up.
Speaker 8: But no, to your point that the Lions, though, Man,
Speaker 8: being a native Metro Detroiter, there is a saying it's
Speaker 8: same old Lions. You know everything, It's always same Allions.
Speaker 8: And I'll tell you that Man, these last two games,
Speaker 8: this one and that one at Green Bay, are nothing
Speaker 8: like the Lions that I saw post Barry. They had
Speaker 8: some good years in the nineties with Barry Singiers, but
Speaker 8: post Barry, you know, going in that Matt Millon era.
Speaker 8: I mean, there's so many those games they like last night,
Speaker 8: they lose that game, no no question about it. You know,
Speaker 8: even with the drops, they lose that game. But yeah,
Speaker 8: they're gonna be They're gonna be tough if they as
Speaker 8: long as they stay healthy, that's gonna be. That's gonna
Speaker 8: be a big matchup ats. I think the day before
Speaker 8: New Year's Eve they played Cowboys down Yeah, thirtieth.
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's supposed to be a Saturday night game.
Speaker 2: That'll be fun matchup.
Speaker 5: And I think you look at really the speed and
Speaker 5: the power combination of what the Lions brought.
Speaker 2: I mean, they've got some guys that'll take your ankles.
Speaker 5: They'll snatch those ankles so fast, gives yeah the next level.
Speaker 5: And then you've got like a David Montgomery who's is
Speaker 5: just a battering. He's just gonna run through everybody. Really
Speaker 5: fun game to watch, But of course we don't see
Speaker 5: the Lions for another four months, so we got to
Speaker 5: kind of see how.
Speaker 2: They continue along the way. I think they're legit. I've
Speaker 2: said it all off season.
Speaker 7: I think they're legit. How impressive is that offensive line?
Speaker 6: You get rid of your top two running backs and
Speaker 6: you bring in two more running backs and you have
Speaker 6: the same as Exucis, if.
Speaker 2: Not more, If not more, probably more, honestly.
Speaker 10: And David Montgomery's case specifically towards the end of his
Speaker 10: tenure in Chicago, thanks for a little rough and him
Speaker 10: trying to find some make sure yardage and be a
Speaker 10: good running back. But how much of that was attributed
Speaker 10: to what he had up front? Kind of saw that
Speaker 10: last night. Yeah, he's just as he's just as fine
Speaker 10: between the tackles as he was two three years ago.
Speaker 2: That's a fantasy positive for me yesterday.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's as interesting to see the way that the Bengals,
Speaker 8: you know, they had a chance to draft Penny Soool
Speaker 8: and took Jamar Chase. Obviously that's worked out great for them, sure,
Speaker 8: but with the Lions. Not that Jamar Chase would be
Speaker 8: great on the Lions, but I just feel like the
Speaker 8: Penny Sool thing has been huge for them.
Speaker 6: You know too, that that was a slow start too. Yeah, right,
Speaker 6: but it's turned up as a yeah for sure.
Speaker 9: Hitting on an Almond Rossaint Brown definitely.
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 5: So fourth round just to take talking Lions and take
Speaker 5: it right back to talking cowboys. You guys continue to
Speaker 5: talk about just how stout that front is for Detroit
Speaker 5: and that offensive line is for Detroit.
Speaker 2: How's uh, how's the Dallas offensive line looking? Nick Tyrone
Speaker 2: Smith to the injury report? Yeah, what happened? Yeah?
Speaker 10: So, uh, Tyron Smith yesterday limited in practice with an
Speaker 10: ankle issue. Does not sound like it's going to keep
Speaker 10: him out of Sunday night. Oh that's listening to Mike
Speaker 10: McCarthy on the fan this morning. Sounds like he will
Speaker 10: be okay to go on Sunday night.
Speaker 2: As far as.
Speaker 10: Tyler Smith still hoping he can get back on the
Speaker 10: practice field by Saturday in hopes to play on Sunday night.
Speaker 10: So I guess if there's any concerns, let's let's still
Speaker 10: keep them with Tyler Smith, Tyrann.
Speaker 9: It just looks precautionary at this point.
Speaker 8: That's good just to throw this out here as your
Speaker 8: worst case scenario, like.
Speaker 11: Tweeted, I tweeted this yesterday.
Speaker 8: If you were to be without both of them for
Speaker 8: this game, I think you'd be looking at starting True
Speaker 8: Madoga at left tackle and then probably TJ.
Speaker 11: Bass or I guess Austin Richards that left guard.
Speaker 9: Yeah, whichever one they'd feel more comfionent.
Speaker 11: And I say worst case scenario.
Speaker 8: And like you said, Mike McCarthy sounded pretty optimistic on
Speaker 8: the radio this morning, but it's also one of those
Speaker 8: things that you have to prepare for that what if
Speaker 8: during the game the ankle game, yeah, issue happens or
Speaker 8: something like that. So yeah, it's you know, it's we've
Speaker 8: talked about the offensive line depth all off season and
Speaker 8: uh yeah, it could be an issue from week one.
Speaker 5: See, but we've talked about the offensive line depth in
Speaker 5: terms of a seventeen game season, and it's not true.
Speaker 5: It's not it's not going to last a seventeen game season.
Speaker 2: Guys, we're going into week one. We haven't even played
Speaker 2: real football going into exactly. That's That's where I'm at.
Speaker 5: It's like, Okay, is this the warning shot that needs
Speaker 5: to be fired even if both of those guys are available,
Speaker 5: Hopefully that's the case going into Week one, there is.
Speaker 6: Not a lot of options. Then people don't get rid
Speaker 6: of solid offense alignment. That's the problem. There's a lot
Speaker 6: of running backs that you can go grab, there's receivers
Speaker 6: you can always go grab. There's always those skill guys
Speaker 6: that you can bring in to fill a void, But
Speaker 6: offensive linement are just not They're just not out there.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, you're you're definitely right about that. Going back
Speaker 8: to the Chiefs game, they'll find a wide receiver to
Speaker 8: help if it needs.
Speaker 11: To be that nobody steps up there.
Speaker 8: But on the offensive line, you're kind of sat with
Speaker 8: what you have here. And because even if you were
Speaker 8: to get some type of a veteran who hasn't been
Speaker 8: on a rosters and then it's got all that time
Speaker 8: they have to catch up to and the season's already
Speaker 8: here there. You know, the Cowboys don't have time for
Speaker 8: you to catch up and give you two three weeks
Speaker 8: like they need they need somebody. Now.
Speaker 7: That's why Denver was as aggressive as they were on
Speaker 7: day one.
Speaker 6: Yeah, like, get all those guys, pour the bag out,
Speaker 6: because there's only a handful of these guys that can
Speaker 6: really play at that level.
Speaker 5: But we're the Cowboys really in a position to do
Speaker 5: that same sort of deal because at least upfront their
Speaker 5: set and they don't want to pay premium money for
Speaker 5: a six guy on the offensive.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, now it looks great.
Speaker 6: Sure, I don't think that they were in that position
Speaker 6: to acquire those that caliber of office alignment. But don't
Speaker 6: get somebody and now you're late, You're you're kind of
Speaker 6: lading the game. And you know, I'm not here to
Speaker 6: criticize their their timeline because I'm not sure what is
Speaker 6: feasible what wasn't feasible, But I mean, the situation is
Speaker 6: what it is, and it's not good.
Speaker 8: I mean true, Modoga is their most significant off season
Speaker 8: acquisition on the offensive line, and there's a good chance
Speaker 8: that we're going to see a decent.
Speaker 11: Amount of him Sunday night. So maybe we'll find out
Speaker 11: more from him. Maybe maybe he'll look.
Speaker 8: Better in the gas that yeah, surprise, Yeah, maybe he
Speaker 8: looks better in some of the games than he does
Speaker 8: than he has in some of the practices in that
Speaker 8: and maybe, you know, being a veteran who's played in
Speaker 8: that stadium plenty of times, maybe maybe he will play
Speaker 8: well and maybe the game plan will fit with what
Speaker 8: he does and they'll figure.
Speaker 2: It out scale of one to ten. What's your confidence level?
Speaker 7: And you're doing that four?
Speaker 9: Four, and that's maybe high, that's maybe generous. Really I
Speaker 9: love Tuma, but I mean for him.
Speaker 5: To come in and spot duty after dealing with an injury,
Speaker 5: telling about guard to tackle at back.
Speaker 9: Guard, left guard. I do like him more left guard.
Speaker 10: I know I've said that a lot, Like if he
Speaker 10: was playing left tackle, maybe I'd be saying a three,
Speaker 10: But I like him more at left guard.
Speaker 7: So four. So in baseball he's killing it.
Speaker 9: Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 3: Look at that positive, full type of guy.
Speaker 9: He'd be the best baseball player. And now I'll tell
Speaker 9: you that.
Speaker 11: Hey, let's not talk about that exaccurate though. Yeah, I
Speaker 11: think that's pretty I.
Speaker 2: Think I would put a four or five.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm actually decently confident just because he has done
Speaker 5: it before, Because he's been there before. It's not like
Speaker 5: he's you're throwing one of these undrafted free agent rookies
Speaker 5: like a TJ.
Speaker 2: Bass.
Speaker 5: Not that I don't like TJ. Bass, but he's in experience,
Speaker 5: you know, so the confidence level naturally will be a
Speaker 5: little bit lower, at least with the DOGA. He's been
Speaker 5: out there and he's played meaningful hol snaps in an
Speaker 5: NFL game. So I think I would say a four
Speaker 5: and a half maybe a five in that regard.
Speaker 2: What would you.
Speaker 7: Put I give him a four point two seven three?
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, very exactly.
Speaker 6: I like, yeah, like TJ bass better personally really not
Speaker 6: from the side standpoint, but I think he got that
Speaker 6: dog intown.
Speaker 5: So were we're talking like a four point two seven
Speaker 5: five to a uh to like a four point three
Speaker 5: four point seven five, four point seven, So like a
Speaker 5: point five difference.
Speaker 7: Half a point that major.
Speaker 2: That's a half point major. That's big time.
Speaker 9: Absolutely changes lives already does that changes lives? That's that's
Speaker 9: one hundred million dollars.
Speaker 8: They think TJ is the future, you know, at one
Speaker 8: of their guard spots. I mean, why not throw them
Speaker 8: to the world experience there.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we were talking about this same sort of deal
Speaker 5: with Terrence Steel in twenty twenty, similar.
Speaker 8: Deal but at right tackle, which there was a lot
Speaker 8: of panic at that time too, Yes there was.
Speaker 10: Now there's not forget me about how early did Steel
Speaker 10: come into the to the twenty twenty league.
Speaker 2: It wasn't was one, no, but it was early.
Speaker 11: It is great. How we can just look this stuff
Speaker 11: up like right away, I know it.
Speaker 9: Twenty twenty three.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, gotta love the technology side of it. And
Speaker 5: that's the thing with Steel was I mean, I was
Speaker 5: an outould be the first one to admit this. I
Speaker 5: was not very high on Terrence Steel coming out Strike too.
Speaker 5: I was not very high on Terrence Deal coming out.
Speaker 7: Of Texas Tech.
Speaker 2: I thought his lower body, his footwork wasn't there.
Speaker 5: I thought he was a little off balanced up front.
Speaker 2: He had seventy two snaps.
Speaker 5: In week one, by the way, twenty twenty so yeah,
Speaker 5: I mean he he played the offensive snaps.
Speaker 8: I'm so fascinated by that the whole Like, how do
Speaker 8: these guys go from Like Okay, so you watched a
Speaker 8: lot of them at Texas Tech way more than I did,
Speaker 8: did not, and you have that that takeaway and obviously
Speaker 8: he went undrafted, so others had that same takeaway. So
Speaker 8: what gets a guy to go from that to being
Speaker 8: what he is now?
Speaker 11: Is it just work ethic?
Speaker 8: Is it just that you know, he gets the right
Speaker 8: teachers around him, Like what is the what?
Speaker 2: What?
Speaker 7: What?
Speaker 11: How does a guy do that?
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's definitely a combination.
Speaker 6: I mean, you you could take the same player take
Speaker 6: him out of that, out of one particular environment and
Speaker 6: put him in another, and the coaching staff can be different. Right,
Speaker 6: So the coaches and the influence he has in that
Speaker 6: room to teaching every day. Also the system, the system
Speaker 6: could benefit him more because they do one style that
Speaker 6: fits his you know, his strengths more than and his
Speaker 6: weaknesses did it his previous location. So there's a lot
Speaker 6: of things that in confidence, I don't care. I mean,
Speaker 6: I bring it up all the time, and everybody just assumes,
Speaker 6: because you're a professional athlete that everybody's walking around with
Speaker 6: all this confidence. It's not the truth. It's just not
Speaker 6: the reality. It's not the reality of the situation. Every
Speaker 6: guy has their struggles, every guy has their doubts. You
Speaker 6: have competition out the wazoo. You have people that are
Speaker 6: always telling you what you're not doing right. You don't
Speaker 6: really get a pat on the back for a lot
Speaker 6: of the things that you're supposed to do or things
Speaker 6: that are expected of you. You don't get pats in
Speaker 6: the back for that. And most people look forward to
Speaker 6: those things. They like they get gratification from being told,
Speaker 6: you know, you did a good job, and that especially
Speaker 6: specifically at the office in line position. You really don't
Speaker 6: get that. You know, you get your you get your grades.
Speaker 6: And I don't know if everybody knows that after every
Speaker 6: game you get a you get a multiple sheets of
Speaker 6: paper and it has every play. Right, say you have
Speaker 6: seventy snaps in a game, Okay, every single play you
Speaker 6: have is graded. And if you're an office alignment and
Speaker 6: you grade out at eighty percent, right, most people at
Speaker 6: their job, if they're hitting it out of the park
Speaker 6: eighty percent at the time, they're probably getting raises eighty percent.
Speaker 6: In football, you're probably getting fired at most positions. At
Speaker 6: most positions, eighty percent effectiveness is not enough. So it's
Speaker 6: a high strenuous job. So you're always doubting yourself in
Speaker 6: every aspect. There's always there's always something that you're you're
Speaker 6: nitpicking at Kyle. You know, Kyle gets on me. Yesterday,
Speaker 6: I felt like I had a bad, terrible day in
Speaker 6: the studio. You know, I probably had a I had
Speaker 6: a handful of mess ups. But in my head, I sucked.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. In my head, I sucked
Speaker 6: because I'm like, that's unacceptable, that that level of execution
Speaker 6: is not acceptable to me, Because like I expect myself
Speaker 6: to be at this level, so that carries on in
Speaker 6: all aspects of your life.
Speaker 7: But that is the game of football.
Speaker 5: Can you finish the sentence? You said, Kyle got on
Speaker 5: to me, but you didn't. You didn't finish because.
Speaker 6: Well you got you got on my head. Yeah, you
Speaker 6: got on my head about like not being hard on myself.
Speaker 5: I want I want to go home to realize, just
Speaker 5: k Kyle.
Speaker 11: Bank to your playing days.
Speaker 8: Did you ever uh just completely disagree with your grades
Speaker 8: and like you ain't got angry at the greater?
Speaker 12: Oh?
Speaker 6: Yeah you have questions. Yeah, you definitely have questions. You
Speaker 6: feel like you might have executed something to a certain level.
Speaker 6: There's a lot we can go into some real deep conversations.
Speaker 6: We'll keep your relatively shallow today, but yeah.
Speaker 2: With your chest.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean some some businesses you have a say
Speaker 6: in the grades that you're giving. Some businesses you can
Speaker 6: actually clap back a little bit on what you feel is.
Speaker 7: Right versus what is wrong. This is not one of
Speaker 7: those industries.
Speaker 10: Yeah, going back to the original point on Terrence Steele,
Speaker 10: I think the biggest thing and he talks about it
Speaker 10: a lot. Even today's having Zach Martin next to him
Speaker 10: at right guard and not you know, casing from leveland
Speaker 10: at Texas Tech. So that does a significant difference, can
Speaker 10: allow him to really focus in.
Speaker 5: I brought up my scouting report on Terrence Steele from
Speaker 5: twenty twenty, and I said, Steel is an undeniable upper
Speaker 5: body strength that is ready for the NFL level, but
Speaker 5: its lower half just doesn't seem to keep up enough
Speaker 5: at the moment to make him a piece of the puzzle.
Speaker 5: It'll be interesting to see what sort of approach that
Speaker 5: offensive line coach at the time, Jim tom Sula, will
Speaker 5: take when looking to improve his foundation. While the change
Speaker 5: of direction and agility needed uptick, a simple change in
Speaker 5: footwork could be enough to make a considerable difference in
Speaker 5: an organization that has had some added tackle depth this
Speaker 5: offseason with the signing of Cameron Irving.
Speaker 2: It'll be a solid it would.
Speaker 5: It will take a solid summer for Steel to make
Speaker 5: the as active ross.
Speaker 8: Who was you, said Tim Schuell, He was the defensive
Speaker 8: plank coach. Who was their offensive plank coach?
Speaker 2: I think it was.
Speaker 8: It was the same, it was it was still see
Speaker 8: I can picture his face right now. It came from
Speaker 8: the Packers.
Speaker 2: He Oh my god, it is blanking. I know it wasn't.
Speaker 2: Jim Tom Sue.
Speaker 5: I think I've had a typo in that back in
Speaker 5: twenty twenty on my guy Darned Kyle.
Speaker 7: The fact that you type that up for every player, absolutely, yeah,
Speaker 7: that is wild.
Speaker 5: But that that was actually that was only the summer,
Speaker 5: and I've also got details on the This.
Speaker 7: Is why I don't right, because yeah, he's cool. Yeah,
Speaker 7: he played nice exactly.
Speaker 10: So do you feel more confident in TJ Bass right
Speaker 10: now than when you wrote that kind of yes, sir.
Speaker 2: Actually I do. I do too. Yeah, I had a
Speaker 2: fifth round grade on TJ. Bass.
Speaker 5: I really liked Bass, and I feel far more comfortable
Speaker 5: with him stepping into the fold in week one in
Speaker 5: a Terrence Steele esque situation at guard than I did
Speaker 5: it Terrence Steele at right tackle going up against the
Speaker 5: I believe it was the Rams that year as the
Speaker 5: first game of the season.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think it's a considerable difference either way.
Speaker 5: You want your starting five available, but at least that's
Speaker 5: something that you can look forward to having, at least
Speaker 5: in a.
Speaker 2: Chum Adoga situation or at TJ. Bass, you feel much
Speaker 2: better about it overall.
Speaker 5: Now, if both of those guys are out, then I
Speaker 5: think the confidence level shifts because now TJ.
Speaker 2: Bass is playing next to Chumah Adoga as opposed to
Speaker 2: Terrence Steele playing next to Zach Martin.
Speaker 9: That's where it changes. That's where it gets really tough.
Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, we'll take our first break here on
Speaker 5: say it with you, Chest Friday and Talking Cowboys presented

Speaker 6: they're awesome, very nice. I like to put a little
Speaker 6: cranberry in there, put a little brown sugar.
Speaker 2: Good stuff.
Speaker 9: Was it a superfood?
Speaker 2: No, super trusted superfood, that's what it was.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Yeah, had Quaker oats. There you go.
Speaker 2: Tonight, send us a pack.
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying here, I think I have
Speaker 5: another case of those black rifle coffees upstairs, by the way,
Speaker 5: so you're hoarding them. Maybe I'm not gonna admit to him,
Speaker 5: but maybe maybe that's the case. All Right, Cowboys versus Giants.
Speaker 5: We've got predictions coming up in the next segment. If
Speaker 5: you want to be our guest picker, give us a
Speaker 5: call at eight eight eight eight five five.
Speaker 2: Two two nine seven.
Speaker 5: You might want to get on the phones right now
Speaker 5: to be the first in line. Eight eight eight eight
Speaker 5: five five two two nights said about this. They don't,
Speaker 5: but they will. They'll know about it. We won't have
Speaker 5: to tell them going into the next segment. But surprise,
Speaker 5: I want you to. I want you to give me
Speaker 5: one player on offense. Let's start on offense to watch
Speaker 5: this week. Who are you keeping.
Speaker 2: The most eyes on Isaiah and.
Speaker 5: Why going into the matchup against the Giants offensively, It's.
Speaker 6: Not gonna be a popular vote, but I'm going to
Speaker 6: go with Jake Ferguson. Okay, Jake Ferguson, I think that
Speaker 6: his effectiveness in the Running Game will dictate his ability
Speaker 6: to get receptions.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I like that assessment. I like that assessment a lot.
Speaker 10: We're talking about guys, the number one guys we're excited
Speaker 10: to see here, the number.
Speaker 2: One guy you're excited to see.
Speaker 9: Okay, then I would go, I go Rico Dubdele. Just
Speaker 9: the Running Game works.
Speaker 10: So well with Pollard and Zeke last year, and it
Speaker 10: really opened up the entire offense at times. I don't
Speaker 10: think Pollard can be relied upon as a single guy.
Speaker 10: So like, for me personally, I'm just really excited to
Speaker 10: see what dawdyll can bring to the Running Game. But
Speaker 10: like sure, Brandon Cook's dak CD, all these guys I'm
Speaker 10: super excited to see.
Speaker 9: In the offense. Cook, especially Cooks, especially.
Speaker 8: One hundred percent Cooks for me, Yeah, yeah, I just
Speaker 8: I thought that. I think that they are on the
Speaker 8: same page right now. But it's not a game. So
Speaker 8: let's see what they do in a game sense. And
Speaker 8: then also just I expect a lot of coverage to
Speaker 8: be rolled over to ceedee Lamb.
Speaker 11: So I just think Cooks is gonna have a lot
Speaker 11: of opportunities.
Speaker 8: Dak seems real comfortable with him, and so who's going
Speaker 8: to be that guy you know that kind of takes
Speaker 8: that role of you know, we're Dalton Schultz is kind
Speaker 8: of a safety blanket type thing. I think Brandon Cooks
Speaker 8: could get a lot of those targets. And then obviously
Speaker 8: I want to see Deucepawn get out there.
Speaker 11: Yeah he can do, but I'm not not as much
Speaker 11: as Cooks.
Speaker 8: Cooks just because if we would have seen some precent
Speaker 8: games might not say that, but just because we have
Speaker 8: not seen this first team offense play against another team,
Speaker 8: I just I don't know. Cooks has made big plays
Speaker 8: since the beginning of training camp. It just seems like
Speaker 8: he's very sure handed. And it's to me from what
Speaker 8: I've seen, it's not just like you see a lot
Speaker 8: of his highlights and deep balls and things like that,
Speaker 8: like man he red zone drills. They work on things
Speaker 8: like that, making grabs like you have one the other
Speaker 8: day in the back of the end zone that I mean,
Speaker 8: he plays bigger than his size for sure.
Speaker 10: There's a good chance he goes up against a rookie
Speaker 10: corner too, whether it's Trite Banks or Trey Hawkins. So
Speaker 10: that's gonna be either. I think it could be a
Speaker 10: big day for to Steels.
Speaker 9: I think it could be a very great day for
Speaker 9: breaking Gook.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I definitely think so.
Speaker 5: I think it's interesting my number one, since I'm not
Speaker 5: gonna go with any of your guys, I would probably
Speaker 5: say Cooks, but I'll say Dak just because similar thing
Speaker 5: this offense.
Speaker 2: I want to see how much it runs.
Speaker 5: I want to see how they command the offense. Are
Speaker 5: they going to push the pedal to the medal a
Speaker 5: little bit?
Speaker 2: Probably not.
Speaker 5: They're probably going to slow this thing down and let
Speaker 5: it ride. Because I know you're big on this with
Speaker 5: the West Coast offense.
Speaker 2: What is impair in games like this?
Speaker 7: Got a big ball? Possession?
Speaker 2: Time of possession?
Speaker 7: That's right.
Speaker 5: What do you think the over under needs to be
Speaker 5: for time of possession? Do you just need to win
Speaker 5: the battle?
Speaker 6: I think thirty five twenty five, thirty five twenty five
Speaker 6: twenty five okay, yeah?
Speaker 5: Why why is time of possession so crucial in a
Speaker 5: West Coast scheme.
Speaker 6: Because it's all about moving the chains, so you're not
Speaker 6: going to have as many your your big plays. Your
Speaker 6: big plays in a West Coast style offense come off
Speaker 6: of play action, which is why I say Ferguson is
Speaker 6: going to be very instrumental to this system. I mean,
Speaker 6: everybody's looking at CD and Cooks and Pony Tony Poller.
Speaker 6: A lot of that stuff won't go the way that
Speaker 6: everybody hopes if Ferguson doesn't take care of business, because
Speaker 6: you won't be able to run the ball effectively on
Speaker 6: the outside of the box. You won't be able to
Speaker 6: get your your play action either off of that if
Speaker 6: you don't have him balling out.
Speaker 7: So in the West Coast.
Speaker 6: Side, if you can get that, if you can get
Speaker 6: that line of scrimmage established and get him out in
Speaker 6: the flask and get those quick little hitters, you can
Speaker 6: start bringing those safeties down a little bit because now
Speaker 6: they have to respect it right. You can get those
Speaker 6: guys who really start coming up because you're taking the
Speaker 6: four yard players, you're taking the five yard players, and
Speaker 6: you're moving the chains, and you're having three down you
Speaker 6: know sets and then reset the you know, reset the
Speaker 6: downs and you're going three downs again, Reset the downs,
Speaker 6: and it's it's wearing the defense out and they're tired
Speaker 6: and they're won the substitute, and all of a sudden
Speaker 6: they start being desperate and desperation starts settling and setting in.
Speaker 6: And when desperation starts.
Speaker 7: Setting in, whoopsies over the top.
Speaker 2: Exactly right.
Speaker 7: It's kind of a load of you to sleep type
Speaker 7: of offense. That's my expectation.
Speaker 6: Now it might be something totally different on Sunday night,
Speaker 6: but I expect it to be slow, slant quick out screen,
Speaker 6: move the chains, reset, run the ball, screen slant quick
Speaker 6: like you know what I'm saying this real simple, simplistic,
Speaker 6: not a lot of flash, and people kind of kind
Speaker 6: of get a little bored with it. And then here
Speaker 6: comes a big splash play. Here comes Dak getting out
Speaker 6: the pocket. Here comes be Cooks coming off the off
Speaker 6: the fake, fake crossing route all the way to the corner.
Speaker 6: You knowing the big players are gonna happen, and then
Speaker 6: you're gonna see the two tights come in and then
Speaker 6: ain't gonna run the ball and then you know, so
Speaker 6: it's gonna be like that real style in the You know,
Speaker 6: you look up and that was a fourteen play drive
Speaker 6: seven and a half minutes, taking off the clock. That's
Speaker 6: what you're looking for. And then you put your defense
Speaker 6: out there and let them go eat.
Speaker 8: You can make the argument there's there's nothing on the
Speaker 8: offense that isn't going to be interesting to watch. Terrence
Speaker 8: Steele coming back from the knee injury, the interior offensive
Speaker 8: line going against this monster defensive you know, interior defensive
Speaker 8: line that they have, Uh, Michael Gallup now two years
Speaker 8: removed from the injury, Jalen Tolbert stepping up in the
Speaker 8: number four role.
Speaker 11: Uh, you know, there's just all across the ball.
Speaker 2: On the group of tight ends.
Speaker 5: Tony Pollat is the number one running back, Rico Daddle
Speaker 5: and Douce Fawns speak for themselves back behind.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, you're right, Smith.
Speaker 9: Still lead Like there's there's a lot.
Speaker 6: List goes on, and certainly don't want to see any
Speaker 6: of those writers a writer's dream.
Speaker 8: Yeah, you certainly don't see any of those Cadarius Tony
Speaker 8: plays where it's a perfect pass hit someone in the hands,
Speaker 8: bounced up.
Speaker 6: But you know that's what we're talking about yesterday That's
Speaker 6: exactly what we were talking about yesterday. Those are the
Speaker 6: type of plays and that was actually I mean the
Speaker 6: ball that he dropped was a perfect play.
Speaker 8: Yeah. Yeah. The still frame that they have out there
Speaker 8: of it, like right, and the sad and say, you know,
Speaker 8: like someone tweeted out like this turns into a pick six,
Speaker 8: like and just the way it looks in there, You're
Speaker 8: just like, there's no possible way like it just like
Speaker 8: the cleanest and you know it is the gloves are
Speaker 8: out like looks like it just like the perfect throw
Speaker 8: to them, boom, game changer. I don't think there's any
Speaker 8: way the Lions when they came without.
Speaker 2: That play, No, not at all. So there's the offensive side.
Speaker 5: I'm want to go to the defensive side, and I'll
Speaker 5: start with you Nick, one defensive player to look at,
Speaker 5: because if the Cowboys offense does their job and they
Speaker 5: go out there and they take that time of possession,
Speaker 5: this defense should be fresh, This defense should be well rested.
Speaker 5: Then you pin in your years back and then you
Speaker 5: could argue that there's not a part of this defense
Speaker 5: that you're not going to be excited about.
Speaker 10: Yeah, my honorable mention is to funk Gilmore just because
Speaker 10: I'm really excited to see him on the field. But
Speaker 10: my answer is Michael Parsons because he's gonna he's gonna
Speaker 10: be going up against Andrew Thomas, who finished the year
Speaker 10: really strong last year. He's had a really good camp
Speaker 10: in New York, so it's a really fun battle for him.
Speaker 9: Week one.
Speaker 10: I think it's I have a matchups to watch article
Speaker 10: coming out later today. That's gonna be the headliner. I'm
Speaker 10: really excited for. That's that's like the heavyweight main fight
Speaker 10: on the main card. We're going to be I'm gonna
Speaker 10: be locked in on that one.
Speaker 2: I like that.
Speaker 10: And he's right behind you too, screaming at you, Thomas.
Speaker 2: I hope, Yeah, he's excited about it.
Speaker 8: What do you think, John, Yeah, I mean those are
Speaker 8: both two great ones for sure. That those very very
Speaker 8: high on my list as well. I'm probably gonna go
Speaker 8: with Trayvon Diggs. I just I just have this vivid
Speaker 8: memory of him being the last person in the locker
Speaker 8: room up in San Francisco not getting a chance to
Speaker 8: pick off that pass that he probably picks off nine
Speaker 8: out of every ten times. He just I think there's
Speaker 8: a bad taste in his mouth and I think with
Speaker 8: the pressure that this defense is going to put up front,
Speaker 8: and then having Gilmour on the opposite side and Drohn
Speaker 8: Bland and these guys out there, I just think that
Speaker 8: this could be an opportunity for Trayvon Diggs to have
Speaker 8: a big game.
Speaker 11: I'm interested to see how he plays.
Speaker 5: M I like that Trayvon Digs and it's just one
Speaker 5: of those those moments where I mean, it happened with
Speaker 5: his brother Stefan Diggs a couple of years ago, where
Speaker 5: it was him looking at the Chiefs celebrating on the
Speaker 5: field of the AFC Championship game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe not the same impact and same public.
Speaker 5: Idea of the whole thing, but for the most part,
Speaker 5: same sort of deal. Where's he's the last one in there.
Speaker 5: He's kind of soaking it in. He takes that as
Speaker 5: motivation going into the season. I have three guys, that's okay, yeah,
Speaker 5: that's fine, just take them off. One guy from It's
Speaker 5: got time.
Speaker 6: Never Gallimore. I think we'll have a day. On the inside.
Speaker 6: Really it's interesting, Okay, yep, I think Never Gallimore will
Speaker 6: have a day. He's actually done relatively well against the
Speaker 6: Giants in the past, and I foresee that continuing. I
Speaker 6: also think that with the restructuring his contract, he should
Speaker 6: be a little bit pissed off because they took some
Speaker 6: money out of his contract and said, well, you have
Speaker 6: an option, you have you can earn it back. I
Speaker 6: would be a little pissed if I was him. Yeah,
Speaker 6: So I think he'll have a little spark, you know.
Speaker 5: I do think it's funny how in our players to
Speaker 5: watch segment on a team where Dak Prescott, Michael Parsons,
Speaker 5: Trayvon Diggs, Tony Pollard, Ceedee lamb or all on this roster,
Speaker 5: Stefan Gilmore all on this roster, You've picked, Jake Ferguson
Speaker 5: and Neville Gown.
Speaker 7: I'm talking about guys that have to have an impact.
Speaker 5: We need it, the type of in depth analysis able
Speaker 5: to need.
Speaker 6: You need interior pressure. You need interior pressure. You need
Speaker 6: a disruptor on the inside. I think Hankin's going to
Speaker 6: do a good job of consuming. I'm not sure that
Speaker 6: he's a disruptor.
Speaker 5: Do you think Mazi can be a disruptor at some point,
Speaker 5: just at some point?
Speaker 2: Maybe not this, yeah, but point I hope.
Speaker 6: I honestly haven't seen enough of him to make that
Speaker 6: stance be on the side to say yes regardless of
Speaker 6: where he was drafted. That's just my opinther So, now
Speaker 6: Gallimore is my my d lineman, interior defensive linement, and
Speaker 6: I'm looking forward to see second level DeMont Clark, You're
Speaker 6: a mad man, mad man. I think his confidence is
Speaker 6: just skyrocketing right now. I think he's remembering who he
Speaker 6: was and I'm looking forward to him continue to grow.
Speaker 6: And then I think Mollie Cooker gets a pick. I
Speaker 6: think with the the style of offense that New York
Speaker 6: has where they like to take shots down the field
Speaker 6: off of play action to sprint outs and things of
Speaker 6: that nature, I think that he's gonna have an opportunity
Speaker 6: to go to get some balls.
Speaker 5: I hope everybody at home that's like a gambling nut
Speaker 5: is taking those because I am not over over under.
Speaker 5: None of us are over under Malie cook to get
Speaker 5: a pick zero point five and they're gonna all check
Speaker 5: the box and then they're gonna get onto Isaiah later on. Uh,
Speaker 5: I will stick with the secondary. Give me jay Ron curse.
Speaker 5: I think Curse against Darren Waller is gonna be a
Speaker 5: fun matchup because I think he's still gonna be matched
Speaker 5: up with him, even with the injuries at the second
Speaker 5: level to guys like de Marvi and Overshown, and then
Speaker 5: of course Donovan Wilson at.
Speaker 2: The third level still banged up.
Speaker 5: Whether or not he plays going into Sunday Night, I
Speaker 5: think jay Ron Curse is going to match up against
Speaker 5: some of these tight ends and that's going to be
Speaker 5: a battle because Waller's gonna be wanting to set the
Speaker 5: tone just as much as what Isaiah was saying about
Speaker 5: Neville Gallimore.
Speaker 7: He got the bag.
Speaker 5: He got the bag, but he's on He's in a
Speaker 5: new franchise and a new city with a similar amount
Speaker 5: of expectations, if not more.
Speaker 7: It's New York, so and he's a new person. Yeah,
Speaker 7: he's he is a new person.
Speaker 6: I'm not sure if you guys have had opportunity to
Speaker 6: watch like the Pivot or I don't want him, you
Speaker 6: know whatever, But they did a good interview on him,
Speaker 6: and you get say he is totally in a different
Speaker 6: mind space from some of the things that he's battled.
Speaker 6: He's gone through some stuff, so kudos to him and
Speaker 6: overcoming his demons and continue to do so. But when
Speaker 6: you're when you've had when you've renewed yourself in that reguard,
Speaker 6: you're able to be out there and play free.
Speaker 7: So j j Ron, strap it up, buddy.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think he's gonna have a really big a
Speaker 9: beer of battle.
Speaker 10: I saw the I went back and watched the one
Speaker 10: preseason drive again last night that the Giants offense had,
Speaker 10: and it was just feed Darren Waller in the first
Speaker 10: four plays, boom boom, boom boom, and he he got
Speaker 10: receptions out of lining up at natural tight end, in
Speaker 10: the slot and out wide, and he was running different routes.
Speaker 10: He ran an angle route out wide, like came to
Speaker 10: the sideline and came out like I was like, what
Speaker 10: are we doing here?
Speaker 2: So I wait a second.
Speaker 9: Yeah, but it's he's going to be fed early and often.
Speaker 8: The early and often, and then we also got to
Speaker 8: throw out DeMarcus Lawrence usually plays pretty decent against the Giants.
Speaker 8: We've got ten se and fifteen games against them, like
Speaker 8: dang for something and then fresh or you know, early
Speaker 8: in the season. I think he could be a potential
Speaker 8: game record too. You think he could also Always on
Speaker 8: the other part with me too is I will always
Speaker 8: remembering up at Met Life when that cat ran on
Speaker 8: the field.
Speaker 11: Marcus Lawrence is standing there. It's just Marcus Lawrence in
Speaker 11: this picture and.
Speaker 8: The cat, and he's just pointing at like, okays, there's
Speaker 8: a cat on the field. I will always remember remember that.
Speaker 8: I always feel like he plays well against the giants.
Speaker 5: Oh man, that that there have been some weird moments
Speaker 5: at met Life between cowboys and giants. I'm excited to
Speaker 5: see that continue to grow as we uh as we
Speaker 5: get into week one again. I mean, it's always it
Speaker 5: always feels like that's an early matchup too.
Speaker 2: You know, during the year.
Speaker 7: I'm gonna get on a d Law train as well, because.
Speaker 2: I feel like, do you want to just pick the entirety?
Speaker 5: Absolutely, you've already picked four guys.
Speaker 2: I like, we'll pick the other seven.
Speaker 6: I like the fact that d Law much like Waller, right,
Speaker 6: but talking cowboys here, he's in a different mind space
Speaker 6: as well. Yeah, and you really get the sense that
Speaker 6: a couple of years ago he felt like he needed
Speaker 6: to be the spokesperson for this defense.
Speaker 7: And now he doesn't have to be. No, now he
Speaker 7: doesn't have to be, and I feel.
Speaker 6: Like still got to be a leader. He's still a leader,
Speaker 6: but he don't leaders don't have to always talk. Yes,
Speaker 6: So I think that he likes that space. I think
Speaker 6: he likes being quote unquote kind of the forgotten man, underdog,
Speaker 6: so he could just go do what he does, and
Speaker 6: that might be dangerous for opposing teams for somebody who
Speaker 6: doesn't get a lot of the attention. Mike got It
Speaker 6: has the attention now, Yeah, you can have it.
Speaker 7: Goa go ahead.
Speaker 6: I'm gonna be on the other end over here just
Speaker 6: wrecking these other cats, especially.
Speaker 8: With the cow It seems like they could get exhausting
Speaker 8: after a while, having all that pressure on, you know
Speaker 8: what I'm saying, like and always be in the face
Speaker 8: of it. Like, I'm sure it's fun for a while,
Speaker 8: but I could just see it getting kind of exhausting,
Speaker 8: especially with social media and everything.
Speaker 10: I really want to see that same energy from Tyron
Speaker 10: Smith this year. I really hope that he can get
Speaker 10: back confident not only in his ability, but being able
Speaker 10: to stay durable on the field and have that same
Speaker 10: kind of mentality as to Marcus Lawrence, because they have
Speaker 10: a very similar mentality in the fact that they just
Speaker 10: kind of lead by example. They do what they do
Speaker 10: and everyone just kind of follows. So I would love
Speaker 10: if he can kind of get back in that bag.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, guess what we're gonna do.
Speaker 5: Whenever we come back, We're gonna get in our bag.
Speaker 5: It's time to say it with your chest. We have

Speaker 5: I'm gonna run it down so we started this.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's actually very very close.
Speaker 5: Twenty twenty are talking Cowboys standings and Pick Them champion
Speaker 5: was Rob Phillips.
Speaker 2: Wwrd, what would Rob do? He won that one.
Speaker 5: I won in twenty twenty one by convincing fash long
Speaker 5: ago seven games on top of heck Ma Harrison in
Speaker 5: that twenty twenty one talking Cowboys standings. And then last year,
Speaker 5: for the first time ever, yes, isaiahs stand back won
Speaker 5: the Pick Them Standings by.
Speaker 2: One game over the fans. For me lately, one game
Speaker 2: I need to get your ring or something to do it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, one game he went fifty seven and twenty nine,
Speaker 5: which was impressive.
Speaker 7: I forgot about that drop.
Speaker 5: That's Isaiah by the way, Yeah, he was out. He
Speaker 5: was wearing a cowboy hat during that. Isaiah went fifty
Speaker 5: seven and twenty nine. Overall last year, the fans went
Speaker 5: fifty six and thirty one game.
Speaker 2: And this is how tight it was.
Speaker 5: One game back by behind the fans was Patrick, and
Speaker 5: three games back behind Patrick was me. So I came
Speaker 5: up in the rear. We stopped counting Rob's about halfway.
Speaker 2: Through the season whenever he left the show.

Speaker 17: me wrong. I love I love Prime. Yeah, they're gonna
Speaker 17: win again this week. They're going to be Nebraska.
Speaker 2: There you go. How about that?
Speaker 5: He's got his first pick in Yeah, I already got
Speaker 5: we already got one down.
Speaker 2: All right, here's our first game.
Speaker 5: It's the first overall draft pick, Bryce Young and the
Speaker 5: Carolina Panthers on the road against Bijon Robinson and the
Speaker 5: Atlanta Falcons. I'll start with Nick Harris, who got.
Speaker 2: On that one.
Speaker 10: That's a fun one. I'm gonna take Carolina. I think
Speaker 10: Bryce Young comes out with a statement. I like what
Speaker 10: Ryce Young has around him and his rookie year, I'm
Speaker 10: not saying they're gonna make the playoffs, running a division
Speaker 10: or anything, but I like what he's got.
Speaker 2: All right, I'm gonna take the Falcons in this one.
Speaker 5: Give me Bjeon, Robinson and desbon Ritter at home to
Speaker 5: win this one over the Panthers.
Speaker 2: I just don't think they're ready yet. Give me the Falcons.
Speaker 11: What do you think, John, Same same deal.
Speaker 8: I just think Bjon is gonna have a monster year.
Speaker 8: I don't think the Falcons are gonna be great, but
Speaker 8: in this matchup at home, Yeah, give me the.
Speaker 2: Falcons, all right?
Speaker 5: Isaiah Carolina going Panthers Panthers? Man, you're way too confident.
Speaker 5: It's my favorite animal, so I'm rocking with it.
Speaker 10: Bryce Young versus Bejon on the same weekend that Texas
Speaker 10: plays Alabama.
Speaker 9: That's I hate that.
Speaker 2: That is kind of interesting what you do there?
Speaker 9: How about that?
Speaker 15: Well?
Speaker 2: Who you picking? Texas or Alabama?
Speaker 9: Go Texas?
Speaker 2: Let's go Alabama, all right?
Speaker 7: Bias?
Speaker 2: Such an emotional pick, bias, Brian Panthers.
Speaker 17: Are Falcons, the dirty dirty birds Falcons all the way?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 5: Well, the Jordan Love lead Packers at the Bay in
Speaker 5: a divisional round matchup up North Packers at Bears in Chicago.
Speaker 2: Isaiah, I'll let you start.
Speaker 6: Well, the Packers aren't packing their hamstrings apparently, so I'm
Speaker 6: gonna go with the Bears.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 2: A couple guys dealing with some stuff. Brian, who you got.
Speaker 17: I like the Packers. The Packers are gonna win their division.
Speaker 17: I don't care what happened last night. Winning the division.
Speaker 2: That's a bold statement from up there in Colorado, John.
Speaker 11: Yeah, Packers. I just don't trust the Bears.
Speaker 8: Maybe maybe I'll be proven wrong, maybe Justin Fields will
Speaker 8: tear them up. But yeah, I think there's just something
Speaker 8: about the Packers owning the Bears lately that I think
Speaker 8: that keeps rolling.
Speaker 9: Give me the Bears there, give me the Bears too.
Speaker 5: I think I'm going with Chicago. I don't trust the
Speaker 5: Bears either. I just think Justin Fields could be electric
Speaker 5: in that game.
Speaker 7: And that should be funny. Put some dues around here,
Speaker 7: all right.
Speaker 2: These next three games are awesome For this first week.
Speaker 2: I'm really excited.
Speaker 5: Miami at Los Angeles, the Battle of the Coast Chargers. Yeah,
Speaker 5: it's Dolphins at Chargers. To a tongue of I loa
Speaker 5: and that speedy Dolphins offense, versus Kelling Moore versus Kellen Moore,
Speaker 5: Justin Herbert and company and the Chargers. John, I'll get
Speaker 5: you to start this way.
Speaker 7: I'm going Chargers.
Speaker 11: Miami is gonna be great.
Speaker 8: Don't get me wrong, but for a lot of these
Speaker 8: games comes down to like where the game is being
Speaker 8: played at and because of that, not that the Chargers
Speaker 8: have some great home field, but I just think they'll
Speaker 8: probably be more comfortable in that environment starting out the season.
Speaker 11: Give me, give me Herbert and the Chargers.
Speaker 9: I'm gonna take the Chargers. Yeah, I think.
Speaker 10: I think it is a perfect marriage between Kellen Moore
Speaker 10: and Justin Herbert and what they're going to try to
Speaker 10: do there.
Speaker 9: I think they'll start off hot too.
Speaker 2: Brian, who you got.
Speaker 17: Yeah, I gotta lean the home home team here, Chargers,
Speaker 17: give me the Fins.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take the Finns on the road to get
Speaker 5: it done in week one, Miami.
Speaker 8: I mean that's been like some dark horse like Super
Speaker 8: Bowl pick a.
Speaker 2: Lot of people. Yeah, yeah, what do you think, Isaiah?
Speaker 7: It's tough. Both of these guys have good defenses, yes
Speaker 7: they do.
Speaker 8: But I think, man, you think there'll be any hangover
Speaker 8: from the way that they lost that playoff game.
Speaker 7: No, nobody care about that. Players aren't players, I mean
Speaker 7: players don't. It's a new year for them. Chargers.
Speaker 2: I wanted you to make the dolphin.
Speaker 7: Noise and I love I love the Dolphins.
Speaker 2: He does, He makes the dolphin noise go for you. No,
Speaker 2: you didn't pay.

Speaker 9: Yeah, you we should almost put a line on.
Speaker 2: What do you want to put a line on?
Speaker 9: Oh, Brian, you drafted Cooper Cup. I'm feel so bad.

Speaker 5: But give me the Jets to beat the Bills and
Speaker 5: really start things off with a bang.
Speaker 2: And NFL twenty twenty three to man, this is.
Speaker 9: A coin flip. It is interesting. I think the weather
Speaker 9: is also going to play a really big factor into
Speaker 9: this one.
Speaker 2: Give me the Bills, though supposed to rain.
Speaker 10: I need to see that offense and what it looks
Speaker 10: like on the field before I before I'm picking them
Speaker 10: against one of the best teams in the league.
Speaker 11: John Bills are my Super Bowl pick, So I'll go
Speaker 11: to the Bills.
Speaker 7: Okay, I'm not going against a Ron.
Speaker 8: A lot of people Aron in the playoffs last few years.
Speaker 7: He hasn't had this much weapon, this many weapons around
Speaker 7: him in a while.

Speaker 7: You're right, he's been figuring things out.

Speaker 5: Yeah, Lilayahuasca, little meditation, all right, Cowboys at the Giants.
Speaker 5: It's an NFC East battle, of course, made for the ages,
Speaker 5: and one that has started the NFL season for both
Speaker 5: of these teams quite a few times. Dak Prescott and
Speaker 5: company looking to continue their dominance in the division to
Speaker 5: see if they can come out on top. They may
Speaker 5: not have a couple of offensive linemen, but things will
Speaker 5: get down and dirty at MetLife Stadium.

Speaker 2: give me a score prediction.
Speaker 9: Cowboys twenty three seventeen, twenty three seventeen.
Speaker 8: Yeah, twenty eight seventeen Cowboys. That's with I think I'm
Speaker 8: Tyrone Smith playing. I think there's a chance Tyler will
Speaker 8: play too. I would pick the Cowboys to win this game,
Speaker 8: even if they had to start Truma and TJ. Bass,
Speaker 8: Like I just really I think the Cowboys just have
Speaker 8: the Giants number.
Speaker 2: So I think so too.
Speaker 5: My score prediction would go or it would vary depending
Speaker 5: on if oh, tyn and for sure whoever's playing on
Speaker 5: the left side of the offensive line, whoever plays there,
Speaker 5: my score prediction would go.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say one of the two guys is out,
Speaker 2: but the Cowboys.
Speaker 5: Still win twenty seven to thirteen final score at MetLife Stadium.
Speaker 6: Who you got, Kyle, Well, Cowboys are weak on the
Speaker 6: interior offensive line, Giants are strong an interior defensive line.
