16
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 6: I always have trouble with this chair. I feel like

17
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 6: everyone sees me every day. Just pull up this chair.

18
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 3: I was struggling there too.

19
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 5: Yes, I always feel like I'm the little kid in

20
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 5: the big person's chair because it's so tall.

21
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,960
Speaker 7: It's funny you say that, because yesterday when I was

22
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 7: walking in here, I saw your feet dangling there in

23
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 7: the air, and I always made to come out. Let

24
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 7: me just be nice when I laughed inside, Yes, you

25
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 7: know it's funny.

26
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 5: By the end of show my feet asleep. It's the

27
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 5: whole thing. It's it's uncomfortable. I don't know why we

28
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 5: decided this high table. Thank you Chris Beam and the

29
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 5: producer and Scott Purcell and all the people that were

30
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 5: part of that decision. Y'all should have talked us into

31
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 5: something smaller.

32
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 3: Anyway, feet are on the ground right now.

33
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 7: Let me all right.

34
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 5: I was about to say, yeah, offensive line. All right,

35
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 5: let's let's talk a little football. We got a lot

36
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 5: to do today. We got to talk about this upcoming game,

37
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 5: Cowboys versus Saints. We'll start first with injury updates. There

38
00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 5: are three guys that are that remain on the Cowboys

39
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 5: in list as non participants in practice as Jake Ferguson,

40
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 5: Marshawn Nielan, John Stevens Junior. What are we hearing as

41
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 5: far as the likelihood that they play well?

42
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 8: Marsha Nieland upgraded to limited yesterday with the with the

43
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 8: calf injuries, So there looks to be a little bit

44
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 8: more optimism that Neiland will be able to go on Sunday.

45
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 8: But I think when you look at the tight end situation.

46
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 8: I think fans should start preparing for Jake Ferguson and

47
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 8: John Stevens to not play against the Saints on Sunday.

48
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 8: So you're looking at Luke scoon Maker to start at

49
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 8: the tight end position. You're also looking at Brevin span

50
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 8: Ford potentially an elevation for a practice squad member, Princeton fant,

51
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 8: and then, like we mentioned earlier in the week, Hunter Looky,

52
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 8: probably with some increased opportunities at the tight end position,

53
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 8: maybe in some pass catching situations. But nevertheless, those are

54
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 8: the three guys to keep an eye on moving forward.

55
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 8: There was a couple of guys that rested on Wednesday

56
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 8: that were upgraded to full on Thursday, but really those

57
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 8: are the three guys we're looking at.

58
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,399
Speaker 5: When you guys looked at Princeton during during camp, did

59
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 5: you consider him to be more proficient as a as

60
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 5: a blocker or as a catch.

61
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 8: For me, it was as a blocker, and they they

62
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 8: worked him into some very lipkey like roles in training

63
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 8: camp and in the preseason, lining up at full back

64
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 8: and kind of being a downhill guy, but also somebody

65
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 8: that can kind of squeak out of the backfield and

66
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 8: get some of those pass catching opportunities.

67
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 6: He's an athletic guy. He's a powerful guy.

68
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 8: They call him bull in the in the tight end room,

69
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 8: and you understand why. He's like six foot one two

70
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 8: and thirty five two hundred and forty pounds.

71
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 6: He's exactly, He's just a.

72
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 8: Bowling ball and he is He is not a guy

73
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 8: you want to meet at the point of attack. So

74
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 8: it's not going to be a significant drop off when

75
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 8: it comes from a blocking perspective. But I think if

76
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 8: Dak is trying to work in the tight ends in

77
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 8: the passing game, I think that's where you see a

78
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 8: really big drop off by not having Jack Ferguson and

79
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 8: or John Stevens Junior.

80
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 6: In this game.

81
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, the thing with fant Man, I just remember him

82
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 3: in training camp. The one read that in the Rams

83
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 3: game that Trey Lance really missed that where they ran

84
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 3: the flat and then the up with the back. You know,

85
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 3: they they had fan, you know, and they had it,

86
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 3: They had the space, they had everything they needed. All

87
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 3: he had to do was throw the ball that direction

88
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 3: or look in that direction. He probably would have had

89
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 3: a touchdown. But yeah, they're there. Yeah, there was a

90
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 3: thought too about depending and I don't know, maybe not

91
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 3: out of the woods yet. On on Nilan and think

92
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 3: about could you get the two elevations? You know, the

93
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 3: elevation from last week was the linebacker. Nick Vigial was

94
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 3: the linebacker. So you only have two of these per game,

95
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 3: so you gotta be careful. But is this one of

96
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 3: those games we have to think about, well, if Neilan

97
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 3: say it doesn't get worked out, is this where we

98
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 3: see Carl Lawson? You know so? Or is this going

99
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 3: to be about wheat? How do you guys feel about

100
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 3: these elevation things? I mean with the running backs and

101
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 3: stuff like that. I mean, I'm kind of looking at

102
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 3: him every week because you only get three before you

103
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 3: have to before you have to figure out if you're

104
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 3: going to put him on the And so people are like, well,

105
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 3: would just be a good week to see Cook, And

106
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't see them using the running back

107
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 3: elevation until they absolutely think about Okay, the guys we're

108
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 3: playing with right now, are are you know? Okay, we're

109
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 3: probably not going to be We're not good enough with this,

110
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 3: let's say about Cook. But you got to be kind

111
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 3: of careful with these. I mean, when you use them,

112
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 3: how you use them? Did you mean did you have

113
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 3: to use that one? Is it? You know? Because once

114
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 3: you use that third one, once you get to that

115
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 3: third elevation, these guys they're either going to be on

116
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 3: the roster or gone, So you have to be careful

117
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 3: about that.

118
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 5: I get the impression that Cook is a insurance policy

119
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 5: to some degree, or at least let's see what happens

120
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 5: with these other backs.

121
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 4: That's what that's That's kind of the impression you guys

122
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 4: are getting.

123
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 3: Is he the break glass in case of emergency guy?

124
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 8: Yeah, Mike McCarthy did talk about earlier in the week.

125
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 8: He was that now he talked about it in a

126
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 8: positive way. He was like, we're going to get him

127
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 8: a really good week of practice next week, and so

128
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 8: that that leads me to believe that I think they

129
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 8: will maybe start looking at elevations with Cook going into

130
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 8: the next week against the Ravens or the following week,

131
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 8: the following week against the Giants.

132
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 6: But he's loved his approach so far. He loves the

133
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 6: veteran presence.

134
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 8: He says he fits in that room really well, and

135
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 8: we've seen him working one on one with running backs

136
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 8: coach Jeff Blasco every time we've been out there for practice, So.

137
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 5: You could see a scenario where he works into the

138
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 5: mix of these backs and not necessarily replace one, but

139
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 5: he's just another guy that they can throw out there

140
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 5: with with.

141
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 2: These guys gets.

142
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 8: That's the thing that Brian brings up a good point

143
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 8: is how do you get those three elevations to a

144
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 8: certain point where you know you're comfortable putting him on

145
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 8: the roster by the end of those three elevations.

146
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 6: And I think that's who comes off the roster. He

147
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 6: goes off exactly.

148
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 8: And maybe that's a situation where it's not hoping for

149
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 8: an injury guy, but I mean, by the nature of

150
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 8: the season and how things go, typically about six weeks in,

151
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 8: there's gonna be one or two guys that you know

152
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 8: you have to put on IR. And maybe it's a

153
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 8: situation where Cook is one of those guys waiting. Because

154
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 8: I every time that a practice squad is built out

155
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,799
Speaker 8: there is a top one or two guys that'd be like, okay,

156
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 8: if and when an injury happens, those are gonna.

157
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 6: Be our two guys to activate.

158
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 8: Last year was brock Hoffman, and it happened a lot

159
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 8: earlier than I think a lot of people expected. But

160
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 8: he got those three elevations and he was immediately put

161
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 8: on the roster. It was a couple of other guys

162
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 8: in the same sense last year, like once C. J.

163
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 8: Goodwin went down late and vander USh went down, it

164
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 8: just made sense to elevate a couple of guys to

165
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 8: the roster. So I would assume that Nick Vigil and

166
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 8: Dalvin Cook are probably one of those top two guys

167
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,239
Speaker 8: that would be roster candidates.

168
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 3: At the end of the day, you get to deal

169
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 3: with Vigil. I mean, he was a Special Teams and

170
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 3: then what happened when Kendricks went out, Nick Vigil went

171
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 3: into the game. You know, it wasn't Leah Foul or

172
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 3: you know.

173
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 6: It was a surprise.

174
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 3: It did me too, and maybe it's you know, it's

175
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 3: and I know they really they trust leaf Oul. I

176
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 3: know that, but it just seemed odd that all of

177
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 3: a sudden, a practice squad elevation. Who you think is

178
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 3: a Special Teams player, now he's playing Green Dot. Yeah,

179
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 3: he's like he's the guy on the field make trying

180
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 3: to get you out of the game and stuff. So

181
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 3: I think you have to be careful. I wonder if

182
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 3: this and I don't mean to bring up so much

183
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 3: about practice squad, but the running back situation. Do you

184
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 3: think they're trying to figure out what they have and

185
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 3: cook before the trade deadline that they're going to They're

186
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 3: going to look at all these guys and think, Okay,

187
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 3: we're good enough?

188
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 7: Deadline again?

189
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 3: What is it? I always mess this up?

190
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 6: And it's been moved this year, right, it's been moved

191
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 6: this year. Specifically, I knew.

192
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 3: I was going to look this up before I even

193
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 3: said this, and then and then.

194
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 8: November fifth at a four pm Eastern So so it's

195
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 8: about a week later than usually, it's about nine.

196
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 4: That's about week nine or so week eight.

197
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 3: So wow. I mean, I think, do you think you'd

198
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,439
Speaker 3: want to know what's going on with your running back

199
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 3: situation before then?

200
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 4: Well, here's the question.

201
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 7: Then I would assume you already kind of know what's happening.

202
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 7: I mean, if everyone's healthy and stays healthy, you can

203
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,719
Speaker 7: really evaluate, you know, who are you going to put

204
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 7: in or who's going to be best. But I wouldn't

205
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 7: assume by that time you can kind of know already

206
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 7: what you do have in cook.

207
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,959
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's after week nine, so you're halfway through the

208
00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 6: season at that point, and.

209
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 5: In your point, Your point, Bryan, is if you're looking

210
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 5: at it from that standpoint, you're thinking they're they're like, Okay,

211
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 5: we want to make a decision on.

212
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 4: Do we have the right guy here?

213
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 3: Right?

214
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 5: We don't if we've got a really good team and

215
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 5: all we need is a running back or the running

216
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,839
Speaker 5: game is just falling off a cliff, kind of like

217
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 5: what happened when they went out and got a Maori.

218
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 5: They say, let's just go get somebody, and we'll give

219
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 5: up some draft capital to do it.

220
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 3: I think, to me, I'd want to know about this earlier.

221
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 3: I wouldn't wait till November if it was me. And

222
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 3: maybe and that maybe that That's what I'm asking is

223
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 3: if the Cowboys, if it turns into okay, we kind

224
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 3: of understand what we have in Dabble, we understand what

225
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 3: we have in Zeke. By the way, you're gonna need

226
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 3: Zeke in this game. If the Saints, if the same

227
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 3: questions I got on, if the Saints are gonna blitch

228
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 3: you as much as they blitz Carolina, you're gonna need

229
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 3: to pick up guy. But the thing about a wonder

230
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 3: is that do you figure this thing out early like

231
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,199
Speaker 3: they did with Amari Cooper. You know, you got to that,

232
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 3: you got to a point where they were like three

233
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 3: and three and it's like, we can't do this anymore.

234
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 5: But I'll tell you this, Brian, I'm a big believer

235
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 5: in the fact I don't think they're gonna I think

236
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 5: I think I agree. I think that in today's NFL,

237
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 5: you've seen teams be very successful with a more potent

238
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,559
Speaker 5: passing game and runners. A group of runners that can

239
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 5: just be sufficient, that can pick up the blitz right,

240
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:13,839
Speaker 5: that can give you a little bit of spell when

241
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 5: you need it, that can run the ball when they

242
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 5: need to, where if you're committed to it, they won't

243
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 5: just be shut down, but they'll get you a three

244
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 5: to four yards to carry and you'll make that work.

245
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 5: And I think between the running backs they have on

246
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 5: this team, I think they'll that will be sufficient for

247
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 5: what they need. There will be bigger problems than their

248
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 5: ability to run the ball if they're having problems.

249
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like you say. The thing with even with

250
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 3: with Vaughan, I know it's small sample. Week one, special

251
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 3: team stuff wasn't a disaster with him playing on especially

252
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 3: matter of fact that one of the key blocks in

253
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 3: the on the punt return was his first block. So

254
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 3: you know all that, you're like, well he's too short,

255
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,959
Speaker 3: to guys like me saying, oh he's too short, you

256
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 3: can't play them on you know, well, Okay, they're doing

257
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 3: things with them, so you wonder. But you're right, the attrition,

258
00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 3: the injuries. I just don't know if they're gonna put

259
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 3: four backs on a roster, you know what I'm saying?

260
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, where do the carries come from?

261
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 3: With that?

262
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, in that sense, you also have Lopkey factored in

263
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 6: as well.

264
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 5: Sure, there are several guys who are still listed on

265
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 5: the New Orleans injury Report.

266
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 4: I'm gonna throw these names out there, and I want

267
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 4: you guys to tell me.

268
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 3: The one you don't you look, Latimer's the one you're

269
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 3: I think you're the most concerned about it.

270
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 9: Ye.

271
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 3: Maybe here's maybe the guard.

272
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 4: But here's my here's my question.

273
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 5: My question is if you were the one making the

274
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 5: calls for the Cowboys, which of these players would.

275
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,959
Speaker 4: Make you change your game plan if they're there versus

276
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 4: not there?

277
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 5: Latimore, Matthew, Lucas Patrick, that's the guard.

278
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 4: Kaylen Saunders DeMarco Jackson.

279
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 5: Which of those guys would make you change up your

280
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 5: game plan or you feel like there's a greater opportunity

281
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 5: for the team if they're not playing and you can,

282
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 5: you can really take advantage of something.

283
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think I'm with Brian here as far as

284
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 8: Latimore goes, just because I think it's going to open

285
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 8: up a lot of things on the outside. I feel

286
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 8: comfortable with what CD Cooks and or Turpin can do

287
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,439
Speaker 8: from the slot. I think I think there's gonna be

288
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 8: some opportunities in the quick game in the slot across

289
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 8: the middle of the field. But if that can push

290
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 8: outside the numbers as well, and you have a guy

291
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 8: who's you know, filling in for Latimore, I think that's

292
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 8: going to open up a lot of opportunities to be

293
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 8: able to stretch the field and get downfield. But I

294
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 8: think another another injury that popped up yesterday Talies Fuaga,

295
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 8: the starting left tackle, Yeah, a back injury.

296
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 6: He was downgraded to it did not participate.

297
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 8: So if he cannot go, Lucas Patrick cannot go, and

298
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,959
Speaker 8: that's the entire left side of their offensive line that's

299
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 8: going to be dealing with reserves.

300
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go. That was the one that kind

301
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 3: of got my attention yesterday when when he went on

302
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 3: with the back, I'm thinking, oh, if that's something, you know,

303
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 3: we'll see how they they how they will adjust to that.

304
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 3: If he in fact doesn't go And you mentioned the

305
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 3: whole left side of their offensive line would be now

306
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 3: in a bind very similar to what you had last

307
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 3: week with the Browns and the trouble they had. I

308
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 3: think with Latimore is that I particularly do not want

309
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 3: Ceedee Lamb running routes against him, you know, And I

310
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 3: say this Latimore against Latimore, and to me, Taylor who

311
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 3: plays in the slot, Alante Taylor, who plays in the slot,

312
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 3: is a guy that gets picked on.

313
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 6: A lot, younger guy.

314
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, he I mean he and he had a bunch

315
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 3: of sacks. He might be he might be an edge

316
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 3: for all I know. I mean, the guy had three

317
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,719
Speaker 3: sacks in the game the other day. But the thing

318
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 3: that you he he gets picked on a lot and

319
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 3: teams have success throwing the ball in it. But the

320
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 3: thing with Marshall Latimore and I mentioned that they played

321
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 3: against him in twenty twenty one and he limited against Lamb,

322
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 3: but he had an interception and Lambley had one catch,

323
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 3: So if you're if you're taking him out of the equation.

324
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 3: Mckissory is a rookie who we all liked on the

325
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 3: Draft show from Alabama. You know, they've got they've got

326
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 3: some guys that are good, but not the level what

327
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 3: you were facing last week. Yeah, last week was no separation,

328
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 3: you know, really not much going on. You did a

329
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 3: nice job in the first half, but this group might

330
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 3: be a lot different if Lattim War is not playing

331
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 3: in this football game.

332
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,480

438
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:54,160
Speaker 7: of someone? From football personnel, the Jones, any coaches or players?

439
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 7: Mm hmm, Tint.

440
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 8: My My natural sense is whenever I have an embarrassing moment,

441
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 8: I just try to wipe it from my brain and

442
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 8: pretend it never assisted. So this is tough to like recall,

443
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 8: but I know I've had at least one or two.

444
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 8: I know I had one at training camp that was

445
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 8: specifically bad.

446
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 4: Does have to be Cowboys player or coach.

447
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,879

Speaker 5: show them this video that we got for after the game.

457
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,440

00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 5: He's like, what's up, guys, and just keeps walking and

474
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 5: we all like, what's up?

475
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, okay, back to it now.

476
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 3: When they beat HI, we're gonna show him this video.

477
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 5: So that was probably the most embarrassing moment that that

478
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:33,400
Speaker 5: I've had.

479
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,400
Speaker 8: I think I have one of the tom My head

480
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 8: And this is such a me story too. So Tyron

481
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 8: Billy Johnson, he was on the practice squad last couple

482
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 8: of years. He's a New Orleans native and he went

483
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 8: to Warren Easton High School.

484
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 6: And if you know me, I'm.

485
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 8: Always on top of the you know, the high schools

486
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 8: where these guys are from. And I did a lot

487
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 8: of work at Warren Easton back in my day's working

488
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 8: in college football recruiting, so I know a lot of

489
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 8: his former coaches and things of that nature. It was

490
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 8: the first day that he was in the locker room,

491
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 8: and I was going to like introduce myself and uh,

492
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 8: you know, kind of make the connection that you know

493
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 8: I I've I've been to his high school many times,

494
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 8: but it just slipped my brain and I was like,

495
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 8: so you went to end a car, right, which is

496
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 8: like their direct rival. And when it's when I say rival,

497
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 8: these two high schools hate each other, and uh, he

498
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 8: was like, nah, I went to I went to Easton

499
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 8: and I was like, oh.

500
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 6: That's what I meant. And it was just a horrible

501
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 6: first interaction. It was awkward.

502
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,199
Speaker 8: He never made eye contact with me, and I just

503
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 8: never talked to tyring Billy Johnson ever again.

504
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 6: So that that was a tough one.

505
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:29,919
Speaker 8: That was a tough one because I really had an

506
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 8: opportunity there and I just swung and miss.

507
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 6: That was embarrassing.

508
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 3: My story. We were talking about the parcels deal in

509
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 3: the locker room. Embarrassing for whom it was embarrassed for him, right,

510
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 3: I was embarrassed, like you know that. It's like and

511
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 3: my man got totally nude in front of me and

512
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 3: like he did it on purpose.

513
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 4: That doesn't sound good and yeah, and.

514
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,359
Speaker 3: I'm like going and I'm like this really happening And

515
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 3: I just couldn't I could he make eye contact, couldn't anything.

516
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 3: And then my man gave it the Captain Morgan Po's

517
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 3: and all that, you know, and I just I walked out.

518
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 3: I was embarrassed. I was clarified, Brian.

519
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 4: Yea, because the picture you're panting is I think a

520
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,120
Speaker 4: little different than he was talking to you about football.

521
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 4: He had just gotten out of the shower.

522
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,880
Speaker 3: No, he started taking his clothes off in front of him,

523
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 3: and he was coming from the show. He would know

524
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 3: he was. He was It's like blue sweat top pants, grays,

525
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 3: and I'm like, he's not doing this? Is he?

526
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 5: When you were talking football, it was like he was

527
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:32,919
Speaker 5: talking check out these ads?

528
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 3: It like that I was talking. He was talking f

529
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 3: And then it got to the point where I'm like, whoa, whoa,

530
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 3: what a? What are we doing? Like just you can't

Speaker 3: just sit there and tell me what you know. And

532
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 3: now I'm like it's like you know sometimes old men

533
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 3: when they go and if you're ever in a gym,

534
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 3: old men walk around with nothing on all the time,

535
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 3: and you're like, why why there's always walking around like,

536
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 3: you know, with nothing on. And I was just sitting

00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 3: He moved after that. You didn't appreciate it. I was embarrassed.

542
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 3: He wasn't embarrassed. I was embarrassed because I'm like, yeah,

543
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 3: to do it.

544
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, I guess mine is not as funny. I guess

545
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 7: the most recent one was at training camp when I

546
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,760

567
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 3: the heck out of Mickey, but Mickey and I would

568
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 3: kill each other. We would. We would, absolutely he would.

569
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,159

570
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 3: would say something, and then he would jump up and

571
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 3: hit me right in the face with his fist. Jump up.

572
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:49,240

00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,359

00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, trying to get away from this.

604
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 3: Right, who would.

605
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:13,840

Speaker 7: not think of my answer? Who would? I? Hm? Hmm,

607
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,800

608
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 3: Is this is beam counts.

609
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 7: Really, you know what I since he's probably listening in.

610
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 6: The back job camera.

611
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 7: He's always just pushing my button. So I think we

612
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 7: would just yeah, we would just fight each other. He

613
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,640
Speaker 7: would be on one end of the island and I'll

614
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 7: be on the other half.

615
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 4: Josh is out to lunch.

616
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 6: Sorry.

617
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 7: Okay. Who has been the most difficult player to work with?

618
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:00,479
Speaker 9: Mmmm?

619
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 3: EMMITTT. Smith? Okay, Emmitt Smith was? I think Emmitt Smith

620
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 3: to me is a and I've it's funny because his

621
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 3: daughter was my son's cheer buddy, and I tried to

622
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 3: get him get to really kind of know him the

623
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 3: family at Greenhill. He just never very friendly to me

624
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 3: for some you know, and and even when I was

625
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,239
Speaker 3: in player personnel, and I would say it he just

626
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 3: never he comes off as this really, really nice guy,

627
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 3: but to me, he's really not very nice. So I

628
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 3: guess I'm being honest here that I tried to be

629
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 3: friendly and it didn't work out for me, so I

630
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 3: kind of now keep my distance. He was a tough

631
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 3: one to work with though, he really was.

632
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 8: I Uh, I'm gonna give kind of a funny answer

633
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 8: here because we just had a moment this past off

634
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 8: season where you know, he kind of ticks me off

635
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,120
Speaker 8: a little bit, but we've talked about it and we're

636
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 8: cool now. So there was a moment in the off season.

637
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 8: Ceedee Lamb had a camp going on down down in

638
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 8: Round Rock. It was a youth camp, and he had

639
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 8: tweeted out the day before like hey, I'm not talking

640
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 8: about any contract stuff, so don't come with contract questions,

641
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 8: and I was to get in the back of my brain,

642
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 8: I was like, there's a lot more to talk about

643
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 8: the just contract stuff, Like I will go talk about

644
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 8: his off season regimen. You know, what he's been up to.

645
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,959
Speaker 8: Where has he been for the last six months. I

646
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 8: was like, well, okay, I'll drive down and get this story.

647
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 8: Talk to some people had an understanding that I would

648
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 8: go down and get an interview, and when I got

649
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 8: down there, he declined the interview and I was like, really,

650
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 8: like you no, I dropped down here from Dallas and

651
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,400
Speaker 8: he's like no, man, you know, he like didn't even

652
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 8: make eye contact, and he's like, no, I'm not doing it.

653
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 8: I was like okay, And so, like literally last week

654
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 8: in the locker room, I was like, you know, you

655
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 8: owe me one, right, He was like, yeah, yeah, my bad.

656
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 8: You know they told me not to talk to me.

657
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 8: I was like, yeah, they told you. I was like,

658
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 8: but you owe me one souh But yeah, that's uh.

659
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 8: That was probably my most frustrating moment probably since since

660
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 8: I've been around the beat.

661
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I can't really answer that from the standpoint of

662
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 5: just individual. I will answer from the standpoint of our group.

663
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 5: I would say, probably there's been snapper, Well, yeah, there

664
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 5: was some. Yeah, but I was gonna I was gonna

665
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 5: say Roy Williams' safety and it's actually really cool now,

666
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 5: but Nickel Nick Nichol need to tell you the story

667
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 5: because he did not like our team. He didn't like

668
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 5: what we did, the standpoint and stuff we run and stuff.

669
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 4: Like that.

670
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 5: And I know he and Nick had some moments and

671
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 5: they've since had a good conversation and kind of has

672
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 5: gotten better and uh and he actually even did a

673
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 5: documentary with UH. So it kind of worked out on

674
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 5: the other end. But Roy didn't like our group for

675
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 5: whatever reason. He did not like what we did and UH,

676
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 5: and that made it very difficult. He was one of

677
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 5: the key players on the team at that time. So

678
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 5: when you got a key player that doesn't really want

679
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 5: to do stuff with you, doesn't want to kind of

680
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 5: engage with you in that way, it's it makes it

681
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 5: really really tough.

682
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 3: Jay Ratliffe was hard to Yeah, I'm talking about all

683
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 3: these older players, like when when I first started with

684
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 3: with you guys with dot com and stuff, And you're right,

685
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 3: there are a lot of these players that felt like

686
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 3: that because and the way this is set up that

687
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 3: Derek and the Jones family have it set up is

688
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 3: you know, we report, we say what we say, you know,

689
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 3: we're you know, we do what we see, and you know,

690
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 3: we interact that way. And a lot of these players

691
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 3: are like, wait a minute, we're all to be on

692
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 3: the same team here, and and a lot of times

693
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 3: you are, but there's a lot of times you have

694
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 3: to be critical. Players don't They don't get that, and

695
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 3: they just do not And it's tough because we do.

696
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 3: We live with them every day and when you get

697
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 3: on a plane or something like that, they look at

698
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 3: you like, oh, here's the guy that's supposed to be

699
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 3: on our team and he's not on our team. You

700
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 3: know that that part of it was difficult.

701
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, it makes it tough, and so there there have

702
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 5: been times when players just so like, but it's the

703
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 5: best job.

704
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 3: Best site in professional sports because of the being able

705
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,160
Speaker 3: to be objective about how the team's cover. And I

706
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 3: get it.

707
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 5: I think the way they look at it is kind

708
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 5: of like your two faces like you're on the team,

709
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 5: but then you're being critical and uh. And what what

710
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 5: I've always when I've had those conversations, what I've always

711
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 5: told him is, man, if we're ever wrong, let me know.

712
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 5: We will retract if we're wrong, but otherwise it's our

713
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 5: job to give you give an honest assessment of what

714
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 5: we see.

715
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 4: And and I know you know sometimes film, Yeah, I

716
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 4: mean we have to.

717
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 5: And and by the way, that puts a lot of

718
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 5: that puts a lot of it that puts a lot

719
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 5: of pressure on us because you have to make sure

720
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 5: we're right.

721
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 4: All the time.

722
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 14: Right.

723
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 3: Uh oh. But Jason Witten mf me one day for

00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 3: staff that brought him here, drafted him. He came up

00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,040

Speaker 7: Well, you give a really long answer.

750
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 3: I was too talking too long too.

751
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 4: Bryan's just taking drink. Answer question and take a drink.

752
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 7: Okay, Okay, what is what has been the most creative

753
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 7: excuse you've used to get out of something or get

754
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 7: away with something at work? Huh, we know we've all

755
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 7: kind of don't shake your head, Derek, because I know

756
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 7: you've this is this is just you that doesn't Yeah,

757
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 7: this is every should start answer.

758
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 6: The last one you should start.

759
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, you go first.

760
00:32:56,680 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I'm trying to think the most.

761
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 4: Make sure I get to take some notes for your.

762
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 3: The most creative way to get out of work, Derek,

763
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 3: you still always textas and say, hey, if it's icy

764
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 3: out there, you don't have to come into work. And

765
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 3: the weather report never called for ice, so I thought

766
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 3: that was pretty creative a lot of the time.

767
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 4: No, you know, me or a chance of ice on

768
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 4: the road.

769
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,479
Speaker 3: I'm like, there were some days where Derek don't take

770
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 3: any chance. Derek would say I don't feel like working today,

771
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 3: and he would call he would call in the weather

772
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 3: report and then like I drive in. I'm like, man,

773
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 3: it's not.

774
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 4: Bad, no, Brian. What Brian calls it a feats of strength.

775
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 5: So what Brian does is Brian looks for moments to

776
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 5: put his life in danger and he's like, I'm about

777
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 5: to conquer this. And so he looks for ice and

778
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 5: he's like, I can drive through this ice. He looks

779
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,800
Speaker 5: for bad situations, like I will go through this just

780
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,479
Speaker 5: because I want to prove I can go through this.

781
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 5: And I'm like, and I want the other text. I'm like,

782
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 5: if it's ice, I'm like, I don't want. Here's what

783
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,040

00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 3: I say this in admiration. I don't say it in

00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 3: like whoa, whoa. I say it in how you're able

823

824
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 3: to work and they do that. They show up and

825
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 3: they don't they don't bag out and all that. I mean,

826
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 3: I say it in admiration.

827
00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 5: We've had we've had some times when we've gone out,

828
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 5: like as a group, yeah to you know, we had

829
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 5: meetings and then we'd go out to dinner and it

830
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 5: would I'd be like feeling it. And literally the next

831
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 5: morning when it was time to get up and we

832
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 5: had meetings, they were first ones right there, ready to go.

833
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:12,960

839
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,839
Speaker 3: I cannot, I cannot wave this one off. I've got

840
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 3: to go.

841
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 6: You know, whenever we.

842
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 8: Have assistant coach availability, it's great because it's you don't

843
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 8: get to talk to these guys very often. But it's

844
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 8: kind of a drag because there's fifteen of them and

845
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,320
Speaker 8: they're all coming like a three at a time, and

846
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 8: it's it's a.

847
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 6: It's a lot going on.

848
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 8: The last two times that we have had assistant coach availability,

849
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 8: it has been the morning after an event that we've done.

850
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 8: So two times ago, it was the retreat that we

851
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 8: had our little department retreat and we got back, you know,

852
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 8: early that morning, and then we walked right over to

853
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,799
Speaker 8: practice to do the assistant coach availability and everyone's just like,

854
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 8: you know, kind of all disoriented. And then this last time,

855
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 8: it was the night after NOBU at training camp, and

856
00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 8: so it's it feels like the assistants no whenever, we're great.

857
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, all right, well we're super late on the break,

Speaker 4: Let's start with you.

929
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 3: Brian Dallas twenty six Saints thirteen. Again, I think I

930
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 3: did this last week. I think went twenty three thirteen.

931
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna go Cowboys twenty six Saints thirteen. I

932
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,879
Speaker 3: think Cowboys will play some good defense in this game.

933
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,400
Speaker 3: I think that the Saints were going to try and

934
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 3: probably nickel and diming to death. They're probably gonna try

935
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 3: and give you a lot of eye candy. It's gonna

936
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 3: be about stopping Alvin Kamara. Chris o' lobby. You know,

937
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,240
Speaker 3: we'll see how he plays in this game. Foster Morose.

938
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 3: The tight ends a little banged up. They're throwing the

939
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 3: ball at the tight end. It's got to cover him

940
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 3: a little bit. Their offensive line might be another one

941
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,239
Speaker 3: of those messes. When we get to this thing. I

942
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 3: think Dallas at home, the offense seems to click. I

943
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,280
Speaker 3: bet you they get the running game going against this bunch.

944
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 3: So I was twenty six Saints thirteen. Yeah.

945
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 8: I see a similar structure here between the Browns last

946
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 8: week and the Saints this week. The only difference being

947
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 8: that there's a lot more coming out of the pack

948
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,959
Speaker 8: field for the Saints. So I'm gonna give the Saints

949
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 8: a little bit more offensive credit than I gave the

950
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 8: Browns last week, but I still have the Cowboys twenty

951
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:16,839
Speaker 8: seven to twenty one.

952
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 6: I think the defense gets.

953
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:20,359
Speaker 8: After it, like you said, especially if the left side

954
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 8: of that offensive line is out. But on offense, I'm

955
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,240
Speaker 8: definitely looking at that Ceedee Lamb and Dak Prescott connection.

956
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 8: They only connected on fifty percent of targets last week.

957
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 6: That was their second lowest in the last two years.

958
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,279
Speaker 8: So I want to see a little bit more connection there,

959
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 8: a little bit more chemistry there. If those two guys

960
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 8: can get on the same page, this offense can take off.

961
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 7: On this defense, I have a similar score twenty seven

962
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 7: twenty three Cowboys win. I think that after last week,

963
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 7: they're gonna come back here at home and just have

964
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:55,879
Speaker 7: the good vibes for it They're gonna I think the

965
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 7: defense is just gonna do the same thing right off

966
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,479
Speaker 7: the bat, come out strong, and go put pressure all

967
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 7: throughout the game. I do see the running game kind

968
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,479
Speaker 7: of being a lot better this week than last week,

969
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 7: so I do see that happening as well, and with

970
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 7: a passing game, I mean, I'm expecting them with a

971
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:17,320
Speaker 7: score like that. That's not just Brendan Aubrey kicking field

972
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,840
Speaker 7: goals that it's actually the offense scoring points and getting

973
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 7: into the en zone.

974
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 5: You know, I'm interested to see this week. What we

975
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 5: knew about or what we thought we knew about Cleveland

976
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 5: going into that game was that they had a really

977
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 5: good rushing attack from the previous year. They really didn't

978
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:33,920
Speaker 5: do much on the ground against the Cowboys, and I'm

979
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,720
Speaker 5: interested to see was that a function of the game

980
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 5: or was that a function of this defense really having

981
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 5: being fitzim or fixing the run defense for the Cowboys.

982
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 5: We're about to find out in this game, because they

983
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 5: got two formidable running backs that they will be facing

984
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,759
Speaker 5: this week. And I want to see if the Cowboys

985
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 5: a defense can be just as good against the run

986
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,400
Speaker 5: as I think they were last week. And so I

987
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 5: do think that'll happen. I think the Cowboys will run

988
00:42:57,680 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 5: away with this one. I think they win thirty one

989
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 5: to seven. Te I don't think it'll really be a

990
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 5: particularly close game, but I think Cowboys will win big.

991
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:06,880
Speaker 3: Nothing better than a noon home game.

992
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 8: Yeah, let me tell you, you're out of there by

993
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 8: what six six thirty to go home at a good

994
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 8: time in bed by you you.

995
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:15,319
Speaker 5: Can actually get to watch the Sunday night game.

996
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:16,399
Speaker 6: Great vibes.

997
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, real quick, before we end the show, I did

998
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 5: want to ask this question.

999
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 3: Everybody picked the Cowboys.

1000
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 5: I'd still everybody wanted to everybody picked the Cowboys.

1001
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 4: If the Cowboys, If the Cowboys don't win this week,

1002
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 4: what will be the reason why Nicholas start with you?

1003
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 8: I would say, I would say offensive consistency. I think

1004
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 8: we saw that problem kind of rear its head in

1005
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 8: the second half last week. And I think if we

1006
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 8: called back to last season, Yes, it was the first

1007
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 8: year under Mike McCarthy. Yes, there were some some things

1008
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,719
Speaker 8: that were still trying to work out. Terrence Steele was

1009
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:52,439
Speaker 8: getting back on the field for the first time since

1010
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 8: his injury, Tony Pollard as well, But there was a

1011
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 8: lot of offensive inconsistency we saw in the first six

1012
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 8: weeks last season. Was that a product of playing in

1013
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 8: the preseason as well? That's a question you might ask.

1014
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 8: And then they come out last week in the first

1015
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,480
Speaker 8: half barrage. You know, it looked like they were just

1016
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,439
Speaker 8: picking up right where they left off, and the second

1017
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 8: half hard stop, zero for five on third down. I

1018
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 8: believe Dak ended up with only twenty three yards in

1019
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 8: the second half four of twelve passing. Those numbers are rough,

1020
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 8: but it was around those numbers. If that carries into

1021
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:24,919
Speaker 8: the first half against New Orleans, and I'm officially looking

1022
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 8: at this early season problem that they've had over the

1023
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 8: course of the last couple of years and being able

1024
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 8: to just find consistency on the offensive side of the ball.

1025
00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 8: And I think whenever you look at the problems that

1026
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 8: this offense is facing in a vacuum in twenty twenty four,

1027
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,319
Speaker 8: it's Ceedee Lamb getting back into a rhythm. It's trying

1028
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,800
Speaker 8: to figure out this running game with Ezekiel Elliott, Rego Dubell.

1029
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 8: What does that distribution look like in this case, in

1030
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 8: this specific game, Jake Ferguson, if he cannot play, how

1031
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:49,279
Speaker 8: did they factor that in and how do they make

1032
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:49,799
Speaker 8: up for that?

1033
00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 6: Just a couple of things.

1034
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 8: I think if offensively they cannot find consistent rhythm, then

1035
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 8: I think New Orleans can beat them in these games if.

1036
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 3: It turns into an Arizona game. Last year, we're all

1037
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 3: of a sudden, Arizona was making a huge place, you know,

1038
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 3: running plays, pass plays, and Dallas really didn't have an

1039
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 3: answer for that day. You know there's some big, big

1040
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 3: plays that were giving up in that game and that

1041
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,440
Speaker 3: won it for Arizona. And if Dallas doesn't, if Dallas

1042
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 3: gives up a bunch of big plays allows car to

1043
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,960
Speaker 3: feel comfortable a lot of they has some catches all

1044
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,839
Speaker 3: of a sudden, that running back looks like the all

1045
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 3: Pro he can be. Then this could be a repeat

1046
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 3: of Arizona because they're capable of making some big plays

1047
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 3: in the running game and also throwing the football.

1048
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,840
Speaker 7: I would say if there were to lose this game,

1049
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 7: I could see it because of lack of creativity on

1050
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:39,799
Speaker 7: the offensive side of the ball, but also penalties, like

1051
00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 7: creating some penalties that just put you in a really

1052
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 7: bad position at really bad time. So that wouldn't my answer, right.

1053
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 8: If I could two streaks to keep an eye on

1054
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:52,720
Speaker 8: when it comes to this game specifically, Yes, the Cowboys

1055
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 8: did lose at home to the Packers in the playoffs,

1056
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,320
Speaker 8: but if we're talking about regular season home winning streaks,

1057
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,799
Speaker 8: the Cowboys have won sixteen in a row. That is

1058
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:03,480
Speaker 8: only two off of the franchise record. So if they're

1059
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:04,800
Speaker 8: able to get to win this week and against the

1060
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 8: Ravens next week, then we're officially starting to talk about

1061
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,279
Speaker 8: franchise record setting numbers, but they are tied with the

1062
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 8: New England Patriots for twelfth all time, as well as

1063
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 8: the Pottsville Maroons.

1064
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 3: The Maroons were good. I'm still approgram Bulldog Turner good

1065
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:20,279
Speaker 3: center for them.

1066
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 6: The other the other streak to keep an eye on.

1067
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,720
Speaker 8: Twenty three straight times the Dallas Cowboys have lost whenever

1068
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,439
Speaker 8: they have scored less than twenty points. The last time

1069
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:32,440
Speaker 8: that they did win against the Saints thirteen to ten,

1070
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 8: that Thursday night game back at twenty eighth Lewis Yep,

1071
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,040
Speaker 8: Jordan Lewis game. Jalen Smith had a big game in

1072
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 8: that in that one as well, but that was the

1073
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 8: last time that the Cowboys scored less than twenty in

1074
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 8: one game.

1075
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 5: All Right, we appreciate you guys joining us. I will

1076
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,680
Speaker 5: say real quick, there are two players for the Saints.

1077
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 5: I think you got to keep an eye on Rashid

1078
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,360
Speaker 5: Rashid Sure, I'm sorry.

1079
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 4: Rashid Shahed that's tough. And Chris Olave.

1080
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 5: Both those two guys for different reasons, but I think

1081
00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 5: they're big play type receivers and if we I think

1082
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,759
Speaker 5: if the Cowboys do lose this game, we will look

1083
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 5: up and those two guys will have made some big plays.

1084
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:08,319
Speaker 5: Because I think right now, what we don't know is

1085
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 5: Caylen Carson looked pretty good last week. I think this

1086
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 5: is a different type of challenge this week. So we're

1087
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,399
Speaker 5: gonna get a chance to see him against some speed guys,

1088
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:18,319
Speaker 5: some guys that can get down feel real quick, and

1089
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,280
Speaker 5: we'll find out how well he plays in those situations.

1090
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 4: All right, we'll be back on Monday.

1091
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 5: We'll tell you what and right and wrong for the

1092
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 5: Cowboys till the inf Nick Carris Brian brought us in Amergarcia.
