I feel like 0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:02.160 everyone sees me every day. Just pull up this chair. 0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:07.120 I was struggling there too. 0:01:07.319 --> 0:01:09.720 Yes, I always feel like I'm the little kid in 0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:12.080 the big person's chair because it's so tall. 0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:15.960 It's funny you say that, because yesterday when I was 0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:18.800 walking in here, I saw your feet dangling there in 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:22.959 the air, and I always made to come out. Let 0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:25.920 me just be nice when I laughed inside, Yes, you 0:01:25.920 --> 0:01:26.600 know it's funny. 0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:28.960 By the end of show my feet asleep. It's the 0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:31.280 whole thing. It's it's uncomfortable. I don't know why we 0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:34.000 decided this high table. Thank you Chris Beam and the 0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:36.400 producer and Scott Purcell and all the people that were 0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:38.920 part of that decision. Y'all should have talked us into 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:39.520 something smaller. 0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:41.960 Anyway, feet are on the ground right now. 0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:44.360 Let me all right. 0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:48.560 I was about to say, yeah, offensive line. All right, 0:01:48.640 --> 0:01:51.120 let's let's talk a little football. We got a lot 0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:53.240 to do today. We got to talk about this upcoming game, 0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:57.760 Cowboys versus Saints. We'll start first with injury updates. There 0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.840 are three guys that are that remain on the Cowboys 0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:03.600 in list as non participants in practice as Jake Ferguson, 0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:07.040 Marshawn Nielan, John Stevens Junior. What are we hearing as 0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:09.000 far as the likelihood that they play well? 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:11.520 Marsha Nieland upgraded to limited yesterday with the with the 0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:14.040 calf injuries, So there looks to be a little bit 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.960 more optimism that Neiland will be able to go on Sunday. 0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:18.919 But I think when you look at the tight end situation. 0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:22.360 I think fans should start preparing for Jake Ferguson and 0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:24.680 John Stevens to not play against the Saints on Sunday. 0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:27.120 So you're looking at Luke scoon Maker to start at 0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:30.080 the tight end position. You're also looking at Brevin span 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:34.000 Ford potentially an elevation for a practice squad member, Princeton fant, 0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:36.280 and then, like we mentioned earlier in the week, Hunter Looky, 0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:38.880 probably with some increased opportunities at the tight end position, 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:42.280 maybe in some pass catching situations. But nevertheless, those are 0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:44.160 the three guys to keep an eye on moving forward. 0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:47.440 There was a couple of guys that rested on Wednesday 0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:50.720 that were upgraded to full on Thursday, but really those 0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:51.919 are the three guys we're looking at. 0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:55.399 When you guys looked at Princeton during during camp, did 0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:58.760 you consider him to be more proficient as a as 0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:00.440 a blocker or as a catch. 0:03:00.800 --> 0:03:03.120 For me, it was as a blocker, and they they 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:06.320 worked him into some very lipkey like roles in training 0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:08.320 camp and in the preseason, lining up at full back 0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:10.799 and kind of being a downhill guy, but also somebody 0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:12.520 that can kind of squeak out of the backfield and 0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:14.360 get some of those pass catching opportunities. 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:16.880 He's an athletic guy. He's a powerful guy. 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:19.200 They call him bull in the in the tight end room, 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:21.560 and you understand why. He's like six foot one two 0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:23.480 and thirty five two hundred and forty pounds. 0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:25.520 He's exactly, He's just a. 0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:27.480 Bowling ball and he is He is not a guy 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:29.040 you want to meet at the point of attack. So 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:33.480 it's not going to be a significant drop off when 0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:36.040 it comes from a blocking perspective. But I think if 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:37.800 Dak is trying to work in the tight ends in 0:03:37.840 --> 0:03:39.640 the passing game, I think that's where you see a 0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:42.360 really big drop off by not having Jack Ferguson and 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:44.080 or John Stevens Junior. 0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:44.280 In this game. 0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:48.040 Yeah, the thing with fant Man, I just remember him 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:52.080 in training camp. The one read that in the Rams 0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:56.400 game that Trey Lance really missed that where they ran 0:03:56.800 --> 0:03:59.560 the flat and then the up with the back. You know, 0:03:59.640 --> 0:04:02.920 they they had fan, you know, and they had it, 0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:04.960 They had the space, they had everything they needed. All 0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:06.760 he had to do was throw the ball that direction 0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:08.360 or look in that direction. He probably would have had 0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:11.480 a touchdown. But yeah, they're there. Yeah, there was a 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:15.800 thought too about depending and I don't know, maybe not 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:20.200 out of the woods yet. On on Nilan and think 0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:23.200 about could you get the two elevations? You know, the 0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:29.160 elevation from last week was the linebacker. Nick Vigial was 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:32.080 the linebacker. So you only have two of these per game, 0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:34.680 so you gotta be careful. But is this one of 0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:37.960 those games we have to think about, well, if Neilan 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:42.279 say it doesn't get worked out, is this where we 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:45.240 see Carl Lawson? You know so? Or is this going 0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:47.920 to be about wheat? How do you guys feel about 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:50.720 these elevation things? I mean with the running backs and 0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:52.800 stuff like that. I mean, I'm kind of looking at 0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:54.919 him every week because you only get three before you 0:04:55.000 --> 0:04:56.960 have to before you have to figure out if you're 0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:59.360 going to put him on the And so people are like, well, 0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:01.440 would just be a good week to see Cook, And 0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:04.280 I'm like, I don't see them using the running back 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:08.040 elevation until they absolutely think about Okay, the guys we're 0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:11.960 playing with right now, are are you know? Okay, we're 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:14.120 probably not going to be We're not good enough with this, 0:05:14.240 --> 0:05:16.760 let's say about Cook. But you got to be kind 0:05:16.760 --> 0:05:19.400 of careful with these. I mean, when you use them, 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:22.120 how you use them? Did you mean did you have 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:25.240 to use that one? Is it? You know? Because once 0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:27.000 you use that third one, once you get to that 0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:29.279 third elevation, these guys they're either going to be on 0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:31.960 the roster or gone, So you have to be careful 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:32.520 about that. 0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:35.919 I get the impression that Cook is a insurance policy 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:39.040 to some degree, or at least let's see what happens 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:39.800 with these other backs. 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:43.000 That's what that's That's kind of the impression you guys 0:05:43.000 --> 0:05:43.320 are getting. 0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.680 Is he the break glass in case of emergency guy? 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:48.520 Yeah, Mike McCarthy did talk about earlier in the week. 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:50.200 He was that now he talked about it in a 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:52.360 positive way. He was like, we're going to get him 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:55.320 a really good week of practice next week, and so 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:57.880 that that leads me to believe that I think they 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:00.400 will maybe start looking at elevations with Cook going into 0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:02.320 the next week against the Ravens or the following week, 0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:04.520 the following week against the Giants. 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:06.680 But he's loved his approach so far. He loves the 0:06:06.760 --> 0:06:07.440 veteran presence. 0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:09.400 He says he fits in that room really well, and 0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:11.560 we've seen him working one on one with running backs 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:14.360 coach Jeff Blasco every time we've been out there for practice, So. 0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:16.400 You could see a scenario where he works into the 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:19.000 mix of these backs and not necessarily replace one, but 0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:21.360 he's just another guy that they can throw out there 0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:22.000 with with. 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:24.000 These guys gets. 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:26.839 That's the thing that Brian brings up a good point 0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:28.880 is how do you get those three elevations to a 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:31.359 certain point where you know you're comfortable putting him on 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:33.120 the roster by the end of those three elevations. 0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:34.839 And I think that's who comes off the roster. He 0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:35.760 goes off exactly. 0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:38.400 And maybe that's a situation where it's not hoping for 0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:40.160 an injury guy, but I mean, by the nature of 0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:42.880 the season and how things go, typically about six weeks in, 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:44.760 there's gonna be one or two guys that you know 0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:46.320 you have to put on IR. And maybe it's a 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:48.560 situation where Cook is one of those guys waiting. Because 0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:51.560 I every time that a practice squad is built out 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:53.799 there is a top one or two guys that'd be like, okay, 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:56.560 if and when an injury happens, those are gonna. 0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:57.200 Be our two guys to activate. 0:06:57.279 --> 0:06:59.120 Last year was brock Hoffman, and it happened a lot 0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:01.240 earlier than I think a lot of people expected. But 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:03.400 he got those three elevations and he was immediately put 0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:05.599 on the roster. It was a couple of other guys 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:07.200 in the same sense last year, like once C. J. 0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:09.200 Goodwin went down late and vander USh went down, it 0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:10.880 just made sense to elevate a couple of guys to 0:07:10.960 --> 0:07:14.480 the roster. So I would assume that Nick Vigil and 0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:16.760 Dalvin Cook are probably one of those top two guys 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:18.239 that would be roster candidates. 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:19.640 At the end of the day, you get to deal 0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:21.840 with Vigil. I mean, he was a Special Teams and 0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:26.840 then what happened when Kendricks went out, Nick Vigil went 0:07:26.880 --> 0:07:30.080 into the game. You know, it wasn't Leah Foul or 0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:30.480 you know. 0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:31.560 It was a surprise. 0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.920 It did me too, and maybe it's you know, it's 0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:38.520 and I know they really they trust leaf Oul. I 0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:41.520 know that, but it just seemed odd that all of 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:44.280 a sudden, a practice squad elevation. Who you think is 0:07:44.320 --> 0:07:48.920 a Special Teams player, now he's playing Green Dot. Yeah, 0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:50.960 he's like he's the guy on the field make trying 0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:52.920 to get you out of the game and stuff. So 0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:55.880 I think you have to be careful. I wonder if 0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:57.600 this and I don't mean to bring up so much 0:07:57.600 --> 0:08:01.440 about practice squad, but the running back situation. Do you 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:03.800 think they're trying to figure out what they have and 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:07.520 cook before the trade deadline that they're going to They're 0:08:07.560 --> 0:08:10.200 going to look at all these guys and think, Okay, 0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:11.120 we're good enough? 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:11.920 Deadline again? 0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:14.320 What is it? I always mess this up? 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:16.920 And it's been moved this year, right, it's been moved 0:08:16.920 --> 0:08:20.800 this year. Specifically, I knew. 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:22.160 I was going to look this up before I even 0:08:22.280 --> 0:08:23.720 said this, and then and then. 0:08:23.840 --> 0:08:26.880 November fifth at a four pm Eastern So so it's 0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:28.920 about a week later than usually, it's about nine. 0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:30.520 That's about week nine or so week eight. 0:08:30.800 --> 0:08:34.160 So wow. I mean, I think, do you think you'd 0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:36.439 want to know what's going on with your running back 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:37.760 situation before then? 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:38.640 Well, here's the question. 0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:41.920 Then I would assume you already kind of know what's happening. 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:45.720 I mean, if everyone's healthy and stays healthy, you can 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.719 really evaluate, you know, who are you going to put 0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:50.960 in or who's going to be best. But I wouldn't 0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:53.720 assume by that time you can kind of know already 0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:55.560 what you do have in cook. 0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:57.959 Yeah, it's after week nine, so you're halfway through the 0:08:58.000 --> 0:08:59.080 season at that point, and. 0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:01.360 In your point, Your point, Bryan, is if you're looking 0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:04.400 at it from that standpoint, you're thinking they're they're like, Okay, 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:05.680 we want to make a decision on. 0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:06.880 Do we have the right guy here? 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:07.320 Right? 0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:09.880 We don't if we've got a really good team and 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.800 all we need is a running back or the running 0:09:12.920 --> 0:09:14.839 game is just falling off a cliff, kind of like 0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:16.320 what happened when they went out and got a Maori. 0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:19.480 They say, let's just go get somebody, and we'll give 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:20.880 up some draft capital to do it. 0:09:21.000 --> 0:09:23.200 I think, to me, I'd want to know about this earlier. 0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:25.640 I wouldn't wait till November if it was me. And 0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:28.560 maybe and that maybe that That's what I'm asking is 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:31.920 if the Cowboys, if it turns into okay, we kind 0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:34.000 of understand what we have in Dabble, we understand what 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:35.440 we have in Zeke. By the way, you're gonna need 0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:37.920 Zeke in this game. If the Saints, if the same 0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:40.360 questions I got on, if the Saints are gonna blitch 0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:42.360 you as much as they blitz Carolina, you're gonna need 0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:44.880 to pick up guy. But the thing about a wonder 0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:48.280 is that do you figure this thing out early like 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:51.199 they did with Amari Cooper. You know, you got to that, 0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:52.640 you got to a point where they were like three 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:54.720 and three and it's like, we can't do this anymore. 0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:57.040 But I'll tell you this, Brian, I'm a big believer 0:09:57.120 --> 0:09:58.760 in the fact I don't think they're gonna I think 0:09:58.800 --> 0:10:01.360 I think I agree. I think that in today's NFL, 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.920 you've seen teams be very successful with a more potent 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:09.559 passing game and runners. A group of runners that can 0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:12.080 just be sufficient, that can pick up the blitz right, 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:13.839 that can give you a little bit of spell when 0:10:13.840 --> 0:10:15.280 you need it, that can run the ball when they 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:17.880 need to, where if you're committed to it, they won't 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.160 just be shut down, but they'll get you a three 0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:23.000 to four yards to carry and you'll make that work. 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:24.840 And I think between the running backs they have on 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:27.320 this team, I think they'll that will be sufficient for 0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:30.440 what they need. There will be bigger problems than their 0:10:30.520 --> 0:10:32.480 ability to run the ball if they're having problems. 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:36.199 Yeah, I like you say. The thing with even with 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:39.720 with Vaughan, I know it's small sample. Week one, special 0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:43.160 team stuff wasn't a disaster with him playing on especially 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:44.880 matter of fact that one of the key blocks in 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:47.880 the on the punt return was his first block. So 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:50.000 you know all that, you're like, well he's too short, 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:51.959 to guys like me saying, oh he's too short, you 0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:54.320 can't play them on you know, well, Okay, they're doing 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:57.400 things with them, so you wonder. But you're right, the attrition, 0:10:57.559 --> 0:10:59.960 the injuries. I just don't know if they're gonna put 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.320 four backs on a roster, you know what I'm saying? 0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:03.720 Yeah, where do the carries come from? 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:03.920 With that? 0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:06.640 Yeah, in that sense, you also have Lopkey factored in 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:07.000 as well. 0:11:07.040 --> 0:11:09.960 Sure, there are several guys who are still listed on 0:11:10.040 --> 0:11:11.480 the New Orleans injury Report. 0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:13.040 I'm gonna throw these names out there, and I want 0:11:13.040 --> 0:11:13.760 you guys to tell me. 0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:17.120 The one you don't you look, Latimer's the one you're 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:18.640 I think you're the most concerned about it. 0:11:18.720 --> 0:11:18.800 Ye. 0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:19.840 Maybe here's maybe the guard. 0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:21.160 But here's my here's my question. 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:23.680 My question is if you were the one making the 0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:27.480 calls for the Cowboys, which of these players would. 0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:29.959 Make you change your game plan if they're there versus 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:30.400 not there? 0:11:30.760 --> 0:11:35.480 Latimore, Matthew, Lucas Patrick, that's the guard. 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:37.520 Kaylen Saunders DeMarco Jackson. 0:11:37.880 --> 0:11:40.000 Which of those guys would make you change up your 0:11:40.040 --> 0:11:42.840 game plan or you feel like there's a greater opportunity 0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:44.640 for the team if they're not playing and you can, 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:46.120 you can really take advantage of something. 0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:47.560 Yeah, I think I'm with Brian here as far as 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:49.440 Latimore goes, just because I think it's going to open 0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:51.760 up a lot of things on the outside. I feel 0:11:51.760 --> 0:11:55.800 comfortable with what CD Cooks and or Turpin can do 0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:58.439 from the slot. I think I think there's gonna be 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:00.880 some opportunities in the quick game in the slot across 0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:02.880 the middle of the field. But if that can push 0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:04.800 outside the numbers as well, and you have a guy 0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.280 who's you know, filling in for Latimore, I think that's 0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:09.040 going to open up a lot of opportunities to be 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:11.679 able to stretch the field and get downfield. But I 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:16.520 think another another injury that popped up yesterday Talies Fuaga, 0:12:16.559 --> 0:12:18.680 the starting left tackle, Yeah, a back injury. 0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:20.760 He was downgraded to it did not participate. 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:23.679 So if he cannot go, Lucas Patrick cannot go, and 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:25.959 that's the entire left side of their offensive line that's 0:12:25.960 --> 0:12:27.040 going to be dealing with reserves. 0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:29.160 Yeah, there you go. That was the one that kind 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:32.120 of got my attention yesterday when when he went on 0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:35.200 with the back, I'm thinking, oh, if that's something, you know, 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:38.320 we'll see how they they how they will adjust to that. 0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:40.680 If he in fact doesn't go And you mentioned the 0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:43.640 whole left side of their offensive line would be now 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:46.040 in a bind very similar to what you had last 0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:49.040 week with the Browns and the trouble they had. I 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:53.840 think with Latimore is that I particularly do not want 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:57.440 Ceedee Lamb running routes against him, you know, And I 0:12:57.520 --> 0:13:02.120 say this Latimore against Latimore, and to me, Taylor who 0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:05.559 plays in the slot, Alante Taylor, who plays in the slot, 0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:07.400 is a guy that gets picked on. 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:08.640 A lot, younger guy. 0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:11.040 Yeah, he I mean he and he had a bunch 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:12.880 of sacks. He might be he might be an edge 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:14.360 for all I know. I mean, the guy had three 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:16.719 sacks in the game the other day. But the thing 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:20.280 that you he he gets picked on a lot and 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:23.160 teams have success throwing the ball in it. But the 0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:25.760 thing with Marshall Latimore and I mentioned that they played 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:31.640 against him in twenty twenty one and he limited against Lamb, 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.240 but he had an interception and Lambley had one catch, 0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:39.240 So if you're if you're taking him out of the equation. 0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:42.400 Mckissory is a rookie who we all liked on the 0:13:42.480 --> 0:13:46.520 Draft show from Alabama. You know, they've got they've got 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:49.560 some guys that are good, but not the level what 0:13:49.640 --> 0:13:53.120 you were facing last week. Yeah, last week was no separation, 0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:55.880 you know, really not much going on. You did a 0:13:56.000 --> 0:13:58.679 nice job in the first half, but this group might 0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:01.440 be a lot different if Lattim War is not playing 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:02.520 in this football game. 0:14:02.679 --> 0:14:04.480 Yeah, all right, we're gonna take our first break. 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:06.959 We will come back and uh Amber's got a little 0:14:07.000 --> 0:14:08.079 bit of a game for us. 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:10.480 Oh, we'll see how shades on. 0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:12.640 Face. 0:14:13.120 --> 0:14:15.320 But we'll see if you guys are up for We. 0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:16.719 Got a fun little game coming up. 0:14:16.880 --> 0:14:19.640 And then the final segment, we'll do some some questions 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:21.440 just about this patchup.
