Hello, guys, 7 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: welcome to another episode of The Break. Thank you Derek 8 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 1: for that awesome smile to shine and Brian, this room 9 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 1: up a little more. Anyways, we're gonna have a fun 10 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,280 Speaker 1: show today. First of all, I want to start off 11 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 1: with Dak Prescott and him being nominated by his teammates 12 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:52,879 Speaker 1: as Walter Peyton. I have trouble saying that name Man 13 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: of the Year the Men of the Year award. He 14 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: was nominated and it surprises us to him being chosen 15 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: by his teammates compare us to other guys. Yes, really, yes? Why? 16 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I just I thought it would be other 17 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: other people. I don't know, I wouldn't I wouldn't have 18 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: thought that Dak Prescott would be the guy this year 19 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: for that, but surprised me too. I can't come up 20 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: with it, but I wasn't shocked at all. Surprise is 21 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: not the right word. It's impressive, Like, I mean, definitely impress. 22 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 1: Guys who get nominated for this award are typically long 23 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: time NFL vets, and I know das in his third year, 24 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: but I mean the Larry Fitzes of the world. Jason 25 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: Witten won it in his what tenth season in the 26 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: league something like that, um JJ Watt, who's obviously like 27 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: a household name, and that's in part what helped him 28 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: raise so much money for Hurricane Harvey relief. I mean, like, 29 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: you know, these are usually very established, very uh well 30 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: known name. So to see Dak get nominated for it 31 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: at um what twenty four twenty five, it's not surprising, 32 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: but very impressive and does deserved. I mean he does 33 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: you know, he does a lot of work for cancer 34 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: research and awareness, and you know, it seems like he's 35 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: always doing something in the community. So I think it's deserved, 36 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: but definitely impressive. Yeah, I think honestly, the reason why 37 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: I wasn't shocked is because I think I agree with Dave. 38 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: Typically these are more senior and and vet laden type 39 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: you know award. But anyway, I do think that this 40 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: was a situation where because of kind of how Dak 41 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: hit the scene and hit the scene quickly and just 42 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: immediately rose to this level of stardom, and then on 43 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: top of that his story about his mom and his 44 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: relationship with his mom and his mom dying of cancer. 45 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: I think that took that whole part of him and 46 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: integrating that into his platform, into his career down the 47 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: two kind of became synonymous and and he's done a 48 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: good job I think of using that platform to then 49 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: invest a lot into bringing awareness to cancer research. So 50 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: I think from that standpoint, I'm not really shocked, because 51 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 1: I think it's just it just goes hand in hand 52 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 1: with what he's in a short period of time that 53 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 1: when you really look at it, he would be the 54 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: one guy who, though, who does the most as far 55 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: as like community things and you know, the whole cancer 56 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: thing that you mentioned, and compared to his other teammates, 57 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: I don't think there's anybody else that really does much 58 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: like that. I don't know. There's a lot of guys 59 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: that have foundations and a lot of guys that do 60 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: some great work, and actually they do, but someone that 61 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: you hear about a lot, you know, like for example, 62 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: when Brendan Carr was here. You knew car did a 63 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: lot of that stuff and help out, like reading at 64 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,279 Speaker 1: schools and stuff like that. I'm just saying, like most 65 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: spoken of. Also, I think the fact that with Witten 66 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: not here this year and shaun Lee Hurt and Frederick Hurt, 67 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that it also made more sense 68 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: too for Dak kind of opened the door I guess 69 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: if you will. It's not that he's not deserving. I 70 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: think Alan Hurns would have been a good choice as well. 71 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: But oh yeah about Cavon Frasier. Yeah, I mean, which, 72 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: not to take anything away from Dak, but there are 73 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: quite a few guys on this team that do a 74 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,119 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of cool work in the community. 75 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: Good all right, now moving on to some good alf 76 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: football trash talk and what's fun without some trash talking. 77 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: And this week the Eagles decided to get that started 78 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: their linebacker and helped me out with his name. We'll 79 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: use that term very loosely too. What linebacker? Okay, Like 80 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: that's a little extreme averages three tackles a game. Let's 81 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: let's be a little bit. He's a captain and a starter. 82 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: It's not like I understand it, but I'm saying his 83 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: production says he's not a very valued member of the team. Literally, 84 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: I mean a linebacker that average is three yards, I 85 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: mean three tackle talking right, he's Damian Wilson. But that's 86 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: exactly right. Let's again, Damian Wilson has started. We say 87 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: his name first. Sure, I'm just some people that a 88 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: little extreme to say he's barely a linebacker, like he's 89 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: a player, gets some tackles and him Okay, cool, what's 90 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: his name? Come help me out. I'm Gruzier Hill or 91 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: Jay I'm sure Dave. We'll talk about that. We'll get 92 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: into the defense about his excellent work whatever. That's part 93 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: of the problem, right, that's the problem why he said 94 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: what he said, Because we're sitting here and trying to 95 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: figure out what his name is. He's trying to get 96 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 1: a little pub Yeah, I mean a little bit. Maybe 97 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 1: that's some headlines going. Well here, we're talking about it 98 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: here today because he was a great player and he 99 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: made sacks. But if you know, if you didn't, you 100 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: have to get his name and say it a few times. 101 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: But I love trash talk from good players, Like I 102 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: love when good players say like I loved what Cam 103 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: Jordan said at the end of the of the Saints, 104 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: thing like that that creates intrigue, and remember this is 105 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: all entertainment, So I love that kind of stuff. That 106 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: stuff works for me. I just don't like the guy 107 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: that's you know. To me, it's kind of like the 108 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: guy that you know the elementary school and you're on 109 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: the playground and two kids are kind of, you know, 110 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: squaring off, and he's the guy that puts the stick 111 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: on one of the shows said I bet you won't 112 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 1: knock it off. Like he's the guy that's instigating it, 113 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: but it's not going to really be in the fight, 114 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: Like he's not going to really contribute anything to the fight, 115 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: but he's instigating the whole thing. I just don't Aubrey 116 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: Drake Graham said it best bench players talking like starters. 117 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: I hate it. Yeah, there we go. That's a good 118 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,559 Speaker 1: way to put it. And I don't really like but whatever. 119 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: Loved Bryce Butler well, you know, I mean Bryce was cool. 120 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: Bryce did that. Yeah, but I I didn't like it 121 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: when Bryce. I know, I don't like the guy. Did 122 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: you read the quote. I haven't gotten to it. It 123 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: is good. It's a good bet that anybody that's listening 124 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: to this podcast knows exactly what he said, yeah, but 125 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: feel free to like. But for those who haven't heard it, 126 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: he basically said, look at Dallas history, they always choke, 127 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 1: so we'll go down there and make them choke. Pretty simple. 128 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: But I love the quote. It would sound better coming 129 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: from a good player or a bet Fletcher Cox said 130 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: that I'd be like, all right, let's do it. Gonna 131 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: be fine, let's go, you know, but it was. It 132 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: was still an interesting close. You're here, and I'm sure 133 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: it's gonna be brought back in the locker room and 134 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Not according not according to Jason Garrett 135 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: what he said. He said, I don't know what you're 136 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: talking about, and we're focused on Thursday. We don't do that. Yeah, 137 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: Jason may not, but I'm sure the guys being very factious. 138 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: I don't know this, but I would bet ten dollars. 139 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett plastered the quote up there at the front 140 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: of his team meeting. It won't be the first time 141 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: he ain't gonna tell us that. Yeah, I have a question. Yeah, 142 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: is he wrong? Yes, he's wrong. You don't think he's wrong. 143 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: I mean, here's why Here's why I think he's wrong 144 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: is because if you want to say the history, the 145 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: one thing Cowboys fans actually can put their hat on 146 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: is the history of this team. You want to talk 147 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: about choking, talk about a team that hadn't for how 148 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: many years, hadn't gotten in NFL. Does I know how 149 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: does the guy like he's a young guy that's like 150 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: in there, you know, the history is three years ago, 151 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: four years ago and all that, But which is really 152 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: all that matters because you know, nothing that Ron Jaworski 153 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: did or didn't do or Donovan McNab is gonna affect 154 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: him in this game. Right. So, but I'm just saying, 155 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: is the Cowboys and Eagles, Like I said the other day, 156 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: I've seen this game before. I've seen the Eagles coming 157 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: in as underdogs and they actually you know that they've 158 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: got more to play for, even though it's kind of similar, 159 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: and I still and I've seen the Eagles win this game. 160 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: So that but you've all seen this game. You've also 161 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: seen the opposite. You saw that year when the Cowboys 162 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: had to play them back to back into the season 163 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: and in the playoffs first week of the playoffs and 164 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: destroyed the seeing it right, I know, but I'm saying, like, 165 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: we've seen this one. We've seen this one go back 166 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: and forth. I know, I know, I just think this 167 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: is a dangerous game. Actually, after get the Eagles, forget that. 168 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: I've seen division teams come in here and the Cowboys 169 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: did it. The Cowboys were the underdogs and they won 170 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: four weeks ago, especially after a big win. I mean, 171 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: it all sets up nicely for the Cowboys to have 172 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: a letdown week. You're going to do something that the 173 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: world thought you couldn't do, and then the next week 174 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: you get it handed to you. Like that happens in 175 00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: the NFL. We've seen that happen with many teams. Even 176 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: though he's one of our best players on this team 177 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 1: in this building. But don't you think the Saints fans 178 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: on Saint Talk or whatever, was like, who's de Marcus 179 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: Lawrence again? Well, yeah, yeah, yes, he's actually yes, which 180 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: really well, I saw this play out on heres a 181 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 1: pro bowler, but that there's a lot of Pro Bowlers 182 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 1: that you don't really know. I saw this play out 183 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: on Twitter absolutely because Saints. Twitter went wild with that, 184 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 1: and there were plenty of people saying who and then 185 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: in the comments you're like, uh, this guy was an 186 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 1: All Pro. If you don't know him, you're not a 187 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: football fan, right, Like, I mean, you know it's happened, 188 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: But I wish I could. I wish I could pull 189 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: myself back, because I really it's surprising how a little 190 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: of a household named de Marcus Lawrence is. I completely 191 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: believe that. Obviously that sounds silly on Cowboys break, But like, 192 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: if I'm really just paying attention to the Saints or 193 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 1: the if I'm just a diehard Broncos fan, like do 194 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,199 Speaker 1: I one hundred percent? Am? I just? Do I really 195 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: know about de Marcus? I agree with probably not that 196 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: tackle for the tight is that really good? Remember the 197 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: defensive tackle? Oh oh Darrell Casey. Okay, I mean you know, 198 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: but that's also but that's also a case of a 199 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: fan being ignorant and I don't mean it well and 200 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 1: that dumb. I'm that ignorant as in't just not knowing. 201 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: If you google that's very different than Gruiser Hill. If 202 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: you google DeMarcus and there were you know, people on 203 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: Twitter like google him, do it and see what he's 204 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: done us three years, you'll know. Whereas you google Camu 205 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: Gruiser Hill and you're like, okay, I mean, okay, he 206 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: like he's he's Damian Wilson. Good for him, Like he's 207 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 1: on an NFL team. That's about it. And I would 208 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: have caught that fast. Did he dropped a pass? He 209 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: His two biggest moments prior to this quote were dropping 210 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: what would have been a pick six from Dak in 211 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: the first game this year and last year when the 212 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: Eagles put it on the Cowboys at AT and T. 213 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 1: Their kickers suffered a concussion and he was their emergency guy. 214 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: If you remember, it went viral. He missed the net practicing, 215 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: remember he and that was his other claim to fame 216 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: he did have. He did successfully kick off four times 217 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: in that game. Now, yeah, I thought he was pretty 218 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: good as a kickoff. They well, they didn't ask him 219 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: to kick any field goals, but he was pretty good 220 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: as yeah. Yeah, yeah, So, I mean, man, the first 221 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: thing I did when I saw the quote was I 222 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 1: went to look up who he was, and then it 223 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: confirmed to me he's a guy that probably shouldn't be 224 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: making that comment in my opinion. Now, again, you have 225 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: the right to say whatever you want to say. I 226 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: just I think if you're not one of the guys 227 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 1: that's actually going to make it happen. You probably shouldn't 228 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: be talking about other people making it happen. Fans made 229 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: comments all the time. It's just like the difference here 230 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: that he's actually on the team necessarily helping on the field. 231 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: So it's just like a fan guy who's also happens 232 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: to be a player, kind of talking. But nobody takes 233 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: a fan like the fan that says that nobody's gonna 234 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: blow it up and it's gonna be on Sports Center 235 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: right when a player says it. Well, the difference, Yeah, 236 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 1: that's the difference. So I mean, I just kind of 237 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: like dismiss it, like it doesn't really matter because I 238 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: go back to what DeMarcus Lauren said. He said we're 239 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: gonna choke him out too, I mean, and or he 240 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: didn't say we're gonna choke him out. He said this 241 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: is how you win. His was as strong as this 242 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: other guy. But at the end of the day, that 243 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: didn't help the Saints. It didn't help them win the game. 244 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: Their offense played the worst game that they have so 245 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: that doesn't help either way. It just kind of makes 246 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: this if it puts a little extra pep in your 247 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: step fine, that's not gonna mean I will. I mean, 248 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 1: when I first heard it, I was like, I'm exactly 249 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: with you. I'm like, well, if Tank says this, maybe 250 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: you'd prefer he didn't. But he's your best player, Like, 251 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna ride with him. You're not gonna tell him. 252 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:32,079 Speaker 1: What's what this guy? You think? Maybe Fletcher Cox had 253 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: some words for him, like what on earth are you doing? 254 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: Although I'm supposed to say that if anybody's number one, 255 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: I was gonna say a name an Eagles player and 256 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: I'll find something in Cindy or they said about the Cowboys, 257 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 1: they Kelsey said something before the first Kelsey fletch. I 258 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 1: literally um in twenty fourteen. This happened in twenty fourteen. 259 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: Fletcher Cox and Benny Logan were like, we're tired of 260 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: hearing about this offense. They're not that good, and they 261 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: came in here and smashed them. Yeah, they do it 262 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: all the time. They don't. Eagles do not have that 263 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: attention to boringness that Jason Garrett does. Yeah, although I'm 264 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: looking at it, he's he is a captain, he's a 265 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: special team's captain. But maybe he has some cloud in 266 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: the locker room. I mean, I don't follow that team 267 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: the way that Eagles break does, so maybe he does 268 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: have the cloud to say that, but either way, it's 269 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: a talking point. I thought it was really funny. Doug 270 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: Peterson today he called it an unfortunate comment, and somebody 271 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: asked him. He's like, well, are you worried about being 272 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: bulletin board material? And he's like, it already is like 273 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 1: what he might worried about it, he ain't gonna do 274 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: anything about it at this past, so you might as 275 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: well keep going. And it does. It doesn't really matter 276 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: at the end of the day. It's fun for fans, 277 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 1: and fans get into it and it gives them something 278 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: to talk about, but at the end of the day, 279 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: it's not going to change the outcome on the field. Yeah, 280 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: we really won't. The fact that the Cowboys are at 281 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: the situation where now they can choke, you know, because 282 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: they haven't been in that situation. And and and I 283 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,440 Speaker 1: don't think that they feel that way because I know 284 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: they're saying backs against the wall, let's see if they 285 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: play like it, but they are saying that at least 286 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: you can't you can't underest him. I mean, we've already 287 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: said it. But I saw a graphic on Twitter this morning, 288 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: like the difference between if you win and lose this 289 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: game is it's insane any and for the Eagles too, 290 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: like if they lose this game they have a seventeen 291 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: percent chance of making the playoffs, and if they win, 292 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: it's up to like fifty. Like, I mean, this is 293 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: They're all important, Amber, I know, I know, but this 294 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: is a really important game. This is really really important. 295 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: Don't say this to Brian if this game is more 296 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: important than some other games, I'm sorry it is. That's 297 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: the way this works. This is like in a basketball 298 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: game five, you know, with five seconds to go and 299 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: you're down one. I mean, this is this is what 300 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: it is. You make the shot and you win. If 301 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: you miss, you lose. I mean it's not like it's tied. 302 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: We're going to overtime and all that. This is pretty 303 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: much what it comes down to. Now. Can you figure 304 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: out other ways From the Cowboys standpoint, yeah, maybe, but 305 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: they don't have the tiebreakers. If they lose, they are 306 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: not in first place anymore. If they lose the I 307 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: actually think though that the Cowboys Cowboys losing is less 308 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: um less of a death nail than the Eagles losing. 309 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: I think the Eagles lose, it becomes a lot harder 310 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: because now they're at six and seven. Cowboys would be 311 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: at seven and six. And to be honest with you, 312 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: if you look at the way things will fall out 313 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: this weekend, there's a good chance even if the Cowboys lose, 314 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: they're still in that wildcard spot. I kind of I'm 315 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: so everything's still in front of it. That's why I 316 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: really like that analogy though, that Nick just made, because 317 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: if you make this shot, you win, and if I lose, 318 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: maybe you can foul people and you work your way back. Yeah, 319 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: but it is a great analogy. Just make the shot 320 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: and you'll win, way easier than having to do all 321 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: that crap though, which I love. That's how you put 322 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: it earlier in the week of if you're good, go 323 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: win the game, Like that's the point. You got the 324 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: opportunity to put them away and to cement yourself. Go 325 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: win the game, you know, make the playoffs without winning. 326 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: You've seen hoosiers, right, No, what I haven't either. Wh 327 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: who's the odd ball here? How many ye America? How 328 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: many in America? Jimmy, I think we're really angry with 329 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: Jimmy chit would do you want to make your point 330 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: before we go into breakers? Understand play? Yeah, just thousand 331 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: and they'll get this. Yeah, because they had a player. 332 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: Now you go, are you gonna mess it up for us? No? No, 333 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: because if you haven't seen it after the twenty fifth 334 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: anniversary came out, and if you haven't seen it, you're 335 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: not gonna see it. Jimmy Chitwood the best player they've 336 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: seen around these parts in fifty years. Whatever couldn't miss. 337 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: He was the best player. Took this little team all 338 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: the way to the title. They get down to the 339 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: very end, this is gonna make it a lot more 340 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: sense than you think. And there their coach. They're witty, strong, 341 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: tough coach, Norman Dale. At the very end, last play, 342 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: they're down one. I believe down one, have a chance 343 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: to win it in nine seconds to go, and he says, 344 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: they think you're gonna get the ball, Jimmy, we're gonna 345 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: use you as a decoy and he's gonna shoot it. 346 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: And everybody was like, oh god, really, he's like they 347 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: outthinking themselves, you know, kind of when you get down 348 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: to the four yard line and you don't run, so 349 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: basically what they did was is then all of a sudden, 350 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: they're sitting there, what's wrong with you guys? And he says, 351 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: I'll make it. That's all he said. That's like his 352 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: whole line for the whole show was a random dude 353 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: on the bench. No, no, no, no, Jimmie Chip said 354 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 1: I'll make it. I don't remember, and I like talk 355 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 1: because he's just he's a weirdo. Yeah, sort, he's just quiet, 356 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, it's okay, let's change it up. 357 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 1: You get the ball, you drive, and you shoot and 358 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: you win, and you, you know, have the greatest movie 359 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: of all time that most people haven't seen. I guess 360 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: in this room.

If anything was different than one I saw yesterday. 422 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 1: I got one. Sean Lee, Taylon Austin not playing, yeah 423 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: at all. No, not bled out. I mean well no, 424 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: the team not officially, not officially, but Tavan is still 425 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 1: not practicing. Shawn Lee was maybe doing stuff with the trainers, 426 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: but not practicing, which again, you know Thursday, guys that 427 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: have been out all week or you know, for all months, 428 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: probably not. And you know you saw on Twitter what 429 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 1: I've been saying. No, finally you saw the locker room. 430 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: There's a video of Tavon Austin in locker room. Hilarious, 431 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 1: It's hard. We brought that up to Garrett to day 432 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: and he was Somebody was like, he's been moving around 433 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: a lot better, and Garrett was like, yeah he has. 434 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 1: Garrett saw that. Yeah, well he sees him at practice 435 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: every No, not that he doesn't need to see the 436 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,199 Speaker 1: video on Instagram. He sees him dancing at practice every day. 437 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: So I think Garrett's on Instagram. I really doubt it. 438 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 1: Guessing that, I really although he might have run her 439 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: account just a G seventeen that would be you know 440 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: is um you know what? And I'm not going there, Okay, 441 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 1: Tavon Lee no uh irving Jason. Garrett did say he's 442 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: here today. By the way they heard he heard the 443 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 1: show yesterday, not at practice up and not at practice, 444 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: but he's here, um all the standings. He was like, 445 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: wait a second, who else there was a four yesterday? 446 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: Cheeto's back. He was sick yesterday. He's back. Garrett says 447 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: he's feeling better. Oh and Jeff's I mean Jeff sway movy. Yeah, 448 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 1: he's he's got cast on his own. So I've been 449 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: talking about the offensive line that Tyran was there, was 450 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: there super feeling? Was the feeling like I know that 451 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: they look like they're gonna probably play. Tyreland didn't have 452 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 1: a great game the last game, and I suspect that 453 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: the injury had something to do with that. Yes, what 454 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: how's he feeling? I have not talked to him specifically. 455 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett did say they don't anticipate making a change 456 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: assuming he's feeling healthy enough to play, which it looks 457 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 1: like he is because he's been at practice all week. 458 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: Tyron was doing he was at he was doing offensive 459 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: line drills. We don't get to actually see practice, but 460 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 1: you know the stuff they're doing before practice. He was 461 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: part of it. So it looks like he's ramping up 462 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: his activity. I fully expect him to play, you know, 463 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 1: I was Are we almost there to talk about the Eagles? Sure? Real? 464 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 1: Real quick, real quick. I looked at this stat the 465 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,159 Speaker 1: of the day of a surpri Who do you think 466 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 1: leads the lead, leads the team and penalties called against? 467 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 1: You already tell me Lyle Collins. Okay, he's got huh, 468 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: he's got ye, there's somebody with more. No, he's he's 469 00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 1: the leader and Tyron Smith has four and the second 470 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 1: most guy is Byron Jones with five. Okay, they throw 471 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: at him, yeah, PI A lot of his come on 472 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: special teams. You know, I would say it, well, I 473 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: would say zero zero penalties called against Cheeto. That that 474 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 1: seems weird to me. I mean, I thought i'd seen 475 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: I thought i'd remember to penalty by him, but it 476 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: might have been declined. It doesn't even that's not even 477 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 1: on the list either, like the client is on the 478 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 1: on the really zero all the way around. But that 479 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: that kind of goes back to what we've been saying 480 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: about Cheeto, doesn't. It is like he's not getting burned, 481 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: he's not getting flagged. His coverage is good. It just 482 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: it just isn't good enough sometimes because it's the NFL. 483 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: Like I firmly believe that he has had he has 484 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: he hasn't had a good seat. He has played well 485 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: this season for the most part, and it just doesn't Well, 486 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 1: you don't think he's had a good season. No, I'm 487 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: I'm saying he's played well, but he doesn't have the 488 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: stats to show for it. He doesn't, you know, neither 489 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: does Byron though. I mean, well, but that's the thing. 490 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: About it. How often have you seen a guy that 491 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: people are actually saying, this guy's having in he has 492 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: zero interests. That is. That's the crappy thing about playing corner, though, 493 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: is if you're not picking off balls, nobody's given you credit. 494 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: But at least Byron, like the pffs of the world 495 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,959 Speaker 1: and the people who watch tape are like, this guy's 496 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 1: doing this, Like Michael Thomas only have five catches for 497 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 1: forty yards. Byron's only allowing one completion per ten targets, 498 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 1: like you can chart that type of stuff, Cheeto. I 499 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: still think he's playing well, but he's giving up the 500 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: catches in the yards like because nobody wants to throw 501 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 1: a buyer. And that's again, it's such a thankless position 502 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 1: because I think he's played really well and he just 503 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 1: the resume doesn't indicate that he has you know what 504 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: I mean, It doesn't look like it, But I think 505 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: he's played well. It's I said this on a show before. 506 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: It reminds me of Felix Hernandez. Like Felix Hernandez was 507 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: the best pitcher in baseball for like two years and 508 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: you wouldn't have known it because his team was so terrible. 509 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: That's why they always say stats. Lie didn't mean just stats. 510 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: Bring up the Seattle Marry. No, it's all good. Now, 511 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 1: let's tell me about this defense and what's different this 512 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 1: time around. And I thought about when I was doing 513 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: this evaluation, which I mean, it's the team we just 514 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: played a month ago, so it's not the first time 515 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: I'm looking at him. But remember last year, how much 516 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: credit we and everyone else gave the Eagles for weathering 517 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: their injuries, And I mean, it happens every year, they 518 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: had a lot of them. Last year, staying healthy is 519 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: such a big key in the NFL. But then you know, 520 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: the Eagles bucked that trend, like they were banged up 521 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: and they still won the Super Bowl, and everybody's like, 522 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: we'll see no excuses look at the Eagles. Well, it 523 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,400 Speaker 1: just goes to show how freakish the NFL is because 524 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: the same thing's happening this year and they're not handling 525 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 1: it well specifically in there. I mean, I really think 526 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: the decimation of the Eagles secondary is probably why they're 527 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: in this boat in the first place. Rodney McCloud, really 528 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: good safety has been out for most of the year. 529 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: Jalen Mills was out the first time they played. He's 530 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: your preferred, one of your preferred starting cornerbacks. He's been 531 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 1: hurt for a large chunk of the year, won't play 532 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: in this game. Most likely Ronald Darby towards ac in 533 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: the first Cowboys game. So all right, three of it. 534 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 1: That's their top three. Three of your top four defensive backs. 535 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: Malcolm Jenkins is still there, but three of your top 536 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: four preferred dbs are out and have been out. Mcloud's 537 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: been out since like Week three or you know, very 538 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 1: early in the season. And it shows like these you know, 539 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,199 Speaker 1: this is a talented defense that just can't hold up 540 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:25,360 Speaker 1: against the pass. Because they're asking guys who I've You've 541 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: never heard of Camu Gruiser Hill, I've never heard of 542 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 1: any of these guys. I remember Sidney Jones, whom he 543 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:36,120 Speaker 1: was the Washington corner who tours Achilles during a pro day. 544 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: So he's in his second season, but it's his first 545 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: season playing NFL football. He is now you know, he 546 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: was their nickel going into the season and now he's 547 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 1: one of their starting boundary corners. Avante Maddox is another guy, 548 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: young player, guy they were not leaning on. He's starting 549 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: at your other corner spot. Malcolm Jenkins is still there, 550 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 1: and now they're saying a guy by the name of 551 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: Cravon LeBlanc might start at safety this week for lack 552 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: of a better option, Like they're just I mean, imagine 553 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: if imagine if Tyree Robinson and Donovan Olumba had to 554 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: be your starters for this defense. Like that's what we're 555 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: talking about here. Look pretty good in training camp at moments, 556 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: not in the games, not in the preseason games. So 557 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: that's that's really the big thing for me, because the 558 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 1: rest of this stuff is the same, Like Mike Michael 559 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 1: Bennett's still there, Brandon Graham's still there. They flip flop 560 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: it in. Fletcher Cox is still a beast. Helodi Nada 561 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 1: seems like he's been playing for twenty years. The fronts 562 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 1: still the same. Jordan Hicks might not play in this game. 563 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: He's hurt as well. Like again, they just they are. 564 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: They are banged up, and they're not handling it as 565 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 1: well as they did last year, and arguably they had 566 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: they had more at least name type guys that were 567 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 1: hurt last year. We think about their left tackle in 568 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 1: their quarterback, that was the big one, no doubt. So Yeah, 569 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: it's the fact that they're not handling as well. This 570 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: year seems to be a bit challenging. But it might 571 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: also because they've lost all those guys at one position. 572 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: When you get decimated at one position and one that's 573 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 1: so critical as cornerback, that can really really kill you. Also, 574 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 1: you remember their their ballyhoo'd run defense. It's taken a hit. 575 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously the Cowboys exposed that, and it hasn't 576 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 1: been a whole lot better the last two weeks the Giants, 577 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: which the Giants gashed him for one twenty six on 578 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: only eighteen carries, which is seven yards per carry, and 579 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: it was a close game, like the Giants. Actually, now 580 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 1: that I think about it, the Giants got murdered because 581 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: I think sae Quon Barkley touched the ball four times 582 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: after halftime in a game that they had a lead 583 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: in they had like a big run. Yeah, there are 584 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: a lot of people talking about that on national media. 585 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: Makes how could they do that? Absolutely no sense, clear, 586 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: I mean, eighteen carries when you're averaging seven yards a 587 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: pop makes no sense to me. And then obviously Washington 588 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,959 Speaker 1: they had one hundred and forty yards on fourteen carries, 589 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: ninety of which came on one busted. You know, Adrian 590 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: Peterson went to the house from ninety yards away, still 591 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: seven point four yards per carry. They've dropped from second 592 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: to tenth in rushing defense since the last time these 593 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: teams played. So they're hurting especially I mean this secondary 594 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: and I know Brian saying the same thing, like you 595 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: got to be able to take advantage of them with 596 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: the pass. That is part of that is part of 597 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: the problem that they're they're dealing with trying to stop 598 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: the run because maybe they're filling extra pressure to get 599 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: pressure on the quarterback. They're rushing maybe a little bit 600 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 1: more on discipline because they don't want to leave that 601 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: secondary back they're having a cover for too long. Well, 602 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: you also, you can't stack the box. I mean that's 603 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: basically what it is. I mean the teams to try 604 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: to stack the box. Its good running backs. You can't 605 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: do that. When you that that leaves your secondary exposed. 606 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: You got to give them help and then therefore you know, 607 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: getting gashed. I mean, it's just simple. They do have 608 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: five sacks the last two games. That's a really good point. 609 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: I mean, if Jordan Hicks can't play in this game, 610 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: then that's your best linebacker two. So we've I mean, 611 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: I know the front gets the credit, but linebackers are 612 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: such a big element of run defense. That's what we've 613 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: seen it here. So this is just a short staff defense. 614 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: So so what's the area that the Cowboys offense should 615 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: be most concerned with. I would say their pass rush 616 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: because this offensive line and Dak have struggled so much 617 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: with that. Five sacks in the last two games thirty 618 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: first on the year is their middle of the pack, 619 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: which doesn't sound that great, but they're right behind the Cowboys. 620 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: Like Cowboys only have thirty three, So I think we 621 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: would all agree the Cowboys pass rush has been good 622 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: more often than not. So that's what I mean, that's 623 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: what you're dealing with here. I mean, Michael Bennett and 624 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: Brandon Graham coming off the edge with Tyrone being Gempi. 625 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: And again, the Cowboys have thirty three sacks. Their defense 626 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: has has a thirty SAgs have sacked thirty one times. 627 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: What you're saying the Eagles defense has thirty one sacks 628 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: on the year and the Cowboys have thirty three. Sorry, 629 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: So I mean you're talking about comparable units. That's my 630 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: point right, Um, I don't know that anybody. I don't 631 00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: think they have a guy that's as good as de 632 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: Marcus Lawrence. But combine you know, Graham and Bennett move around. 633 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: I think you know, if if Tyron's struggling because he's heard, 634 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 1: I think they'll put their better rusher on him. Take 635 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: your pick. Obviously, if Xavier sue A Filo is still 636 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: dealing with an ankle, that doesn't sound great when you're 637 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: dealing with a guy like Fletcher Cox. I know he 638 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 1: did great in the first game, but if he's injured, 639 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: so their pass rush for sure, and they got after, 640 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: they got after Colt McCoy and Mark Sanchez in that 641 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: game on Monday, so that is that's what bothers me. Yeah, 642 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 1: I think if they get him into situations where Cowboys 643 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: are forced to have to pass a lot, that's when 644 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: this game really changes. Because as long as the Cowboys 645 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 1: can keep balance, I think the Cowboys can have a 646 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: field day with this against this defense, just because again 647 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: the challenges they're having stopped in the run and the 648 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: pale challenges are having on the back end. I think 649 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: if there's balance, I think you can do well. If 650 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: you get him in a situation where you have to throw. 651 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 1: Now that pass rush gets even more fierce, and I 652 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 1: think that could be more of a problem, which you 653 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: never want to have to throw because you're trailing obviously, 654 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: But like I wouldn't be downs like down a distance, 655 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't be opposed to them passing to set 656 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 1: up the run. I know that goes contract, but like 657 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: we've I mean, I'm no longer I no longer think 658 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: that they can't throw the ball because they've been able 659 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,959 Speaker 1: to since Cooper got here, and with I mean Sidney 660 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: Jones is your best corner right now, and he is 661 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: basically a first year player. He hasn't been terrible, but 662 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: he's by no means a match for Mary Cooper. Is 663 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: basically what I'm saying, Yeah, I think you can get 664 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: chunks against these guys and open things up for your 665 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: run game, which that sounds all kinds of fun. Like 666 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: if you can play a defense where they can't afford 667 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: to focus on Zeke, then you just shouldn't have a problem. Yeah, 668 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: But I just I guess the point I was making 669 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: is even in down in distance, if you're getting in 670 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: a lot of second and law, it's a lot of yea. 671 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: And it creates a scenario where the defense knows you 672 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: have to pass. Now it's not even a decision they 673 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: have to make of whether they're going to bring that 674 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: safety down or not. They definitely keep that safety back, 675 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: and the rushers know we're going to get the quarterback. 676 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: We don't have to be as disciplined in our lane. 677 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 1: So I just think to Cowboys can stay if they 678 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,479 Speaker 1: could stay ahead of the change, if they can keep 679 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,479 Speaker 1: them off balance and use both the pass and run, 680 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: I think I think offensively they'll be able to do 681 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: the things they want to do. Let's go ahead and 682 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: take our final break, and then we'll dive into some 683 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: NFL fantasy football. Yeah, we got Steve Buchanan coming up 684 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: here after the break. They when we come right back. 685 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 1: While the player can look good on paper, it's one 686 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: he's out on the field that you really find out 687 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: what he's made of. That's why the Cowboys rely on 688 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: more than just stats and scouting reports when building their team. 689 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: When picking a tractor, it's why you should rely on 690 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 1: more than just specs and features. You've got to take 691 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: it out and put it to the test. The Cowboys 692 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: did when they name John Deer their official tractor experience 693 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: one for yourself.

Sometimes they do, sometimes they 733 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,240 Speaker 1: do not. And when you sell nearly four million parent 734 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: of underwear, that that shows that the stats mean that 735 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: they've got a good product.

Steve, 747 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: what's up? How's it going, guys? The only time stats 748 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: why is when the productions don't go all right. That's 749 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 1: the only time when what you wouldn't know anything about 750 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 1: that though, would you. No, no, I never tell us 751 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 1: a little bit about this Cowboys Eagles matchup. Give us 752 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: a give us, give us one or two matchups in 753 00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: this game that you that you think from a fantasy 754 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: standpoint can have a big impact, but also just from 755 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: a fan standpoint, can have a big impact on how 756 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 1: this game is gonna go, how it's gonna play out. 757 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 1: I mean, man, it's hard not to love the Cowboys 758 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 1: offense in this game. Already. Men, we saw what they 759 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 1: did to the Eagles defense, as you want to call 760 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 1: him that already. You know, just a few weeks ago 761 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,879 Speaker 1: in Elliott absolutely ripped them apart one hundred and fifty 762 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,320 Speaker 1: one rushing yards. Since that game, actually, the the Eagles 763 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,720 Speaker 1: have allowed over one hundred rushing yards in four straight 764 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 1: games since they played the Cowboys. Before that, they had 765 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: only allotted one in the first eight games. That's just 766 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: been a huge area that they haven't been able to 767 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: defend as a play. And then from the other side 768 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: to Golden Taste, to getting more involved when the Diagle's offense. 769 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,239 Speaker 1: When he first played against the Cowboys and we ten, 770 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,760 Speaker 1: he only played on twenty three percent of their snaps. 771 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: But he's been so much more involved in the song. 772 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: Last week he caught seven of his seven targets with 773 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 1: for eighty five yards. And man, that's the years that 774 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 1: I worried about for the Cowboys this week because you know, 775 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown is usually the one that they're covering the flood. 776 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,919 Speaker 1: He's just scored on twice in the last two weeks, 777 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 1: so I would if that's a they're going to exploit, 778 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 1: but just a liverall this this is such a smash 779 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: spots for the Cowboys against the Eagles. One question that 780 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: I have, and I know that the fantasy football that 781 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: that you're dealing with with DraftKings, is is it the 782 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: daily where you you have a signed number for or 783 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: value for the guy? Where does zach ERT's rank among 784 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 1: offensive players? I guess Gurley would be number one, but 785 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: I mean is Earth's in that group? I guess because 786 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: he catches so many passes? Yeah, I mean he has 787 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty one targets on the season. I 788 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 1: mean he just gets a map of a number over 789 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: ten a games for them, and he's been their biggest 790 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: playmates or even with the addition of Faith and he's 791 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 1: still been the guy that Carson Wentz hasn't going to it. 792 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,840 Speaker 1: You know, even with Wayne's having some struggles of the 793 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: past couple of weeks, you know, Earth is still getting 794 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: nine touches, seventy touches, gets fourteen against the Cowboys. I'm play, 795 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 1: but I mean he's amongst one of the best, especially 796 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 1: at a tight end position. That just feels like it's 797 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: really fallen off the season. You know, just buy my 798 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: home team, Rock Grontowski. He's been almost a non factor 799 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: the entire season. And that's somebody people used to rely 800 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: on weekend and week out. So Eart along with probably 801 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,359 Speaker 1: George Kennell, some of the talk tight ends of the week. 802 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 1: Right now, what are you saying from Josh Adams that 803 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 1: tells you that he either is a guy that can 804 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:15,919 Speaker 1: have a big day or a guy that that won't 805 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 1: really do much against this Cowboys defense. See, the problem is, too, 806 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: is that they want to utilize out of the tour. 807 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: He's had over twenty carries the past two weeks. But 808 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: the problem is there's just so many mouths to seed 809 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 1: in that offense. It's hard to rely on him weekend 810 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 1: and week out. And even though we had twenty carries 811 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,760 Speaker 1: last week had eighty five yards and that was about 812 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: the end of it. You know, for fantasy perspective, that's 813 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,360 Speaker 1: not that creative a game. We're not scoring touchdowns and 814 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,439 Speaker 1: you're not catching anything out of the backfield. He doesn't 815 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 1: really get any carded. He haven't seen more than six 816 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: since he started really getting going in a week eleven, 817 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 1: and then it went down to one and didn't even 818 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: didn't see one last week again for red skin. So 819 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: he definitely has the talent. I think they just really 820 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: need to rectify what they're going to do in that 821 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,800 Speaker 1: backfield because he's getting some decent amount of carries, but 822 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 1: he doesn't get to to as much. You talked a 823 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 1: lot about targets, and then earlier this week, Dave was 824 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: sort of talking about his fantasy teams, thinking Michael Gallup, Um, 825 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: is he where does he factor in on this? Is 826 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 1: he a guy that's starting to get a little bit 827 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 1: more play? Oh? Absolutely so. I mean you've seen thirteen 828 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 1: targets over his last two games, and this little bit, 829 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: you know, seems like Dak is really getting him a 830 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: poor with I mean, you look at you know, obviously 831 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,439 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley's been man forever, but Beasley seems be falling 832 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 1: more and more out of this bottense. I mean, Down's 833 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: seeing seven targets last week six the week before. You know, 834 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: we'd like to see him get in the end zone 835 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 1: a little bit more, but you know we've got Amari Cooper. 836 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 1: You know, you don't really need to take Calvin that 837 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,280 Speaker 1: spot there. But yeah, he's doesn't get a lot more involved, 838 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,879 Speaker 1: at least on Draftking he's Chiefs this week. He's only 839 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 1: thirty seven hundreds, So I'm not gonna cost you want 840 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,320 Speaker 1: to take a chance with him, but's really any receiver 841 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: and that's on the field for the cowboy has only 842 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 1: a chance against this ego secondary was throwing out guys 843 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 1: out there. I think they're just grabbing up three at 844 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 1: this point if he's thirty seven hundred, Like what what 845 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 1: what is Zeke? What's the comparison there? Yeah, so Zeken 846 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,720 Speaker 1: this week is one of the most expensive aged six hundreds. 847 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 1: So it's a massive, massive different. Hey, real quick, we 848 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,000 Speaker 1: got James you Cannon from Draft Kings onwards before we 849 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:11,800 Speaker 1: let you guys, did have one question that's a bigger 850 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,879 Speaker 1: NFL question. A lot of teams entering the playoffs this week, 851 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: a lot of teams that are entering the playoffs probably 852 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 1: have James Connor. Which way do you go on that? 853 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,320 Speaker 1: Do you go with a guy like Jayalen Samuels or 854 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:24,800 Speaker 1: do you go with Stephen really or do you just 855 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 1: stay completely away from that. See, the thing with Samuels 856 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:29,879 Speaker 1: is that I think he has more upside, at least 857 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 1: in a Stanity perspective, because he was basically used as 858 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 1: a tight end in college. I mean, he is just 859 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: absolutely a beast when it comes to catching out of 860 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: the backfield. So I think they'll mix in Wiley. But 861 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 1: I mean, we haven't seen Whitley play a snap since 862 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 1: I think Week ten at this juncture, so I can't 863 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: imagine all of a sudden he gets thrusted into this 864 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 1: role is going to be good for you know, fifteen carries. 865 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: You know, Samuels has been hasn't been as involved as 866 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,239 Speaker 1: they haven't needed to, but he has some really good hands. 867 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 1: He's a fast guy. I think they're gonna feature him 868 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: more if at the end of the day, if you know, 869 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 1: Michell doesn't come back, is going to be their main guy. 870 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 1: Saniel should be that second guy next season. I think 871 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna take a look and what he has this 872 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: week all right, Steve Man, we appreciate you taking some 873 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:11,480 Speaker 1: time with us today. We'll have you back next week. 874 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:14,400 Speaker 1: Talk a little more fantasy. That was just certain you 875 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 1: Cannon from Draft Kings. Never bet against an LSU Tiger. 876 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 1: It's all I'm gonna kid Rid Stephen Ridge. Really, who's 877 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 1: the you gonna rush for a hundred yards and Michael 878 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 1: Gallups find at Michael Gallops finding the end zone this week? 879 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:37,359 Speaker 1: You heard le Collins. I mean that's all I got. 880 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:42,320 Speaker 1: So what so what he leaves the team and starts 881 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 1: My great point with he leads the team and starts 882 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 1: at right tackle too, So okay, there's a lot of 883 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 1: guys that lead and starts at their posis. I bet 884 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 1: they would have won in the seventh overtime. We want 885 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 1: to bring that up. I don't know why we had 886 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,800 Speaker 1: to do that. What that has to do with anything, nothing, 887 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 1: It doesn't. It's just that if I was off his 888 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: boy Lyle, I'm just kidding, like he's he's playing, but 889 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: it I mean, it's I think that they're finding out 890 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 1: over there that I mean, it's you can go after him, 891 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, he's that's that's what the league is. 892 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: I mean you're gonna pick your poison. You're gonna go tiring. 893 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 1: Are you gonna go up against Lyle? It's one of 894 00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 1: the more disappointing storylines of this season. I mean, he 895 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 1: hasn't been just awful, but he played. I just I 896 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 1: thought the world of how he played from like the 897 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: bye week until the end of the season last I mean, 898 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 1: he handled Khalil Mack, he handled you know these Redskins 899 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,359 Speaker 1: path he I just he was great and it has 900 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 1: not translated as well as you would have hoped this year. 901 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,600 Speaker 1: I was expecting a Pro Bowl caliber year. Absolutely, I agree. 902 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 1: He hasn't. He hasn't had an injury, has he? Like if? 903 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 1: I mean he's playing with something though, isn't he Everybody 904 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 1: in the league. Yeah, yeah, but nothing like major where 905 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,399 Speaker 1: you would know he played it on the injury type 906 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: of stuff. I mean, he had a back thing that 907 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 1: was pretty serious by the end of last year. But 908 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 1: as far as I know, there's nothing terrible bothering to 909 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 1: get one because that's when he was playing great last year. 910 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 1: Knock on wood, don't get injured. But i'mber saying he 911 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:10,000 Speaker 1: played really yeah, really good. Don't get hurt, Elsie, don't 912 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,319 Speaker 1: get hurt. All right, Well, that is all the time 913 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 1: we have for today.
