That was low and you. 0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.480 Do it different every time. I don't know me because 0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:55.760 I'm like one day I'm a harmonized but it's just like, wow, 0:00:55.880 --> 0:00:57.480 you can you pick a different note every time? 0:00:57.480 --> 0:00:59.959 And I'm like, yeah, I trying to say about singing bad. 0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:03.520 You you harm variety. 0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:13.959 Let's try to get to No, it's getting along harmon Jazmine, 0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:16.760 I can't. 0:01:19.240 --> 0:01:23.920 Oh my god, I know my ear started bringing that's 0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:25.959 crazy practice. I had to take that practice. 0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:31.560 Yeah, right now, speaking of practice, guys, yes, we're talking 0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:35.240 about practice. We're absolutely talking about talking about my bad 0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:41.920 Guess what what Brandon Cooks, Marshawn neland designated to return 0:01:41.959 --> 0:01:47.080 to practice today today, they have returned the practice right right. 0:01:46.959 --> 0:01:47.840 Now, Let them cook. 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:52.960 Let them cook, and Marshawn don't have one for. 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:55.680 That, let me think it's fine. I'll think on it. 0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:58.440 The impact that these two guys, well, of course they 0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:02.000 probably won't play this Sunday against the Washington Commanders, but 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.920 their twenty one day practice window has officially started. Just 0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:08.839 having those guys back, what kind of impact. Let's start 0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:12.000 with Brandon Cooks first. That impact of having Brandon Cooks. 0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:12.560 Back, what is it? 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:16.320 Yeah? I mean, honestly, it's a morale boost and I 0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:19.000 think that's exactly what this team needs right now, coming 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:23.320 off of back to back to back to back losses. 0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:27.800 I just had to the point, is you get a 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:30.640 moral boosts from even just saying Brandon Cooks right, The 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.680 impact that he has in that locker room, in that room, 0:02:34.120 --> 0:02:37.760 just his presence alone, his mentorship, him being back physically 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.760 and being able to help coach these guys. Because let's 0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:42.800 keep it a buck here, some of these guys that 0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:45.480 he's around will not be here next year. They might 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:47.600 be free agents, they might go to another team so 0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:49.400 what they can get out of Brandon Cooks for the 0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:51.760 rest of the season will be not just valuable, you know, 0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:53.520 for the rest of the season, so they don't have 0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:56.480 to end it in such a miserable fashion, but it 0:02:56.480 --> 0:03:00.040 could extend past and really get them good tape to 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.919 get them where they want to be an extra whether 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:06.119 that's here or not. So getting a morale boost first 0:03:06.120 --> 0:03:09.280 and foremost. Second of all, you get some consistency here 0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:12.680 as well, from that wide receiver to position that has 0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:15.680 been a question mark really all season. It's kind of 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:19.960 been mixed around. Is it terp is it Jalen Tolbert. 0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:20.600 We don't know. 0:03:20.680 --> 0:03:22.080 But what you do know is when you have a 0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:25.119 Brandon Cooks on the field, you have consistency. And that's 0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:26.640 exactly what this offense needs. 0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:29.200 I'm with just in terms of morale. As far as 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:31.520 what's expect from them on the field, Ideally we would 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:34.239 get the consistency that you're talking about, but considering what 0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:36.040 they're both coming back from, I think we do need 0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:38.040 to wait and see what they do before we put 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:41.800 those expectations on them. However, yesterday, when Mike McCarthy was 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.160 asked about who's been stepping up as a leader on 0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:47.160 this team in the absence of DeMarcus Lawrence and Dak Prescott. 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:50.360 He mentioned that what he's been depending on is guys 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:53.400 to lead by example and show what they should be 0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:55.920 doing as players, and that different guys have been stepping 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:58.560 up at different times, especially when they're designated team captains. 0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:01.400 So when it comes to that leading by example, we 0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:04.200 know Brandon Cooks is one of those people who historically 0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:04.800 has been. 0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:05.320 Very good for that. 0:04:05.440 --> 0:04:07.560 So I feel like him being back at practice, him 0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:09.840 being active during the games, even if he doesn't get 0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:12.480 as many snaps starting off, I think that'll do some 0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:14.720 good things for the offense because you've got guys that 0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:17.960 are still fighting for various reasons. There are some people 0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:21.479 who really want to try to do the absolute most 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:23.320 with these next seven games. There are some people who've 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:25.679 got incentives or they just want to put out good tape. 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:28.919 So I believe that the example that he can set 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:30.960 will be really good for this offense. So we'll see 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:35.000 a morale boost, we'll see lifted spirits, and other than that, 0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:37.000 we'll just have to see how they've recovered and how 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:37.560 they come back. 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:40.680 Yeah, I mean, y'all pretty much said it. All in 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:43.160 regard to the benefit of the him actually being on 0:04:43.200 --> 0:04:48.600 the field, I'm just at a point to where, very 0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:51.839 similar to how y'all said, is that it's too further 0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:54.359 the team and for them to and these guys to 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:58.360 further themselves. Given where you are in the season, I'm 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:02.720 not expecting well, I will say, just me personally, I'm 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:04.880 just glad that Brandon Cooks has some time to get healthy. 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:09.839 This knee was bothering him since training camp, and him 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:13.039 having this time off I think will benefit him as well, 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:15.799 just in his route running and things, because we weren't 0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:17.919 seeing the suddenness of being able to stop on a 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:21.080 dime and go out of his and release and so 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:24.000 him being back to his one hundred percent self. I'm 0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:27.920 happy for the player to have the opportunity to play 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:30.000 fully healthy at this point in the season. 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:31.560 Yeah, I think you have to have you have to 0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:33.800 always be happy about a Brandon Cooks. I mean, you 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:36.440 all hit it on the nail, but being happy about 0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:38.640 Brandon Cooks being back in the fold because you do 0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:41.560 get to learn from him. It's specifically like a guy 0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:45.280 like Jayalen, Tolbert Turpin. They've always spoken so highly about 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:48.080 what he brings to the table, but switching gears to 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:51.160 Marshaw Neeland having him back, and again, this doesn't mean 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:53.560 that they're gonna be playing this week, I would hope not, 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:55.720 because you still have to slowly get them back into 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:58.560 the mix of things. But just having him, a guy 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:00.960 like that back, and even though he's a rookie, having 0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:02.000 him back, what does that mean. 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:02.920 It's I'm ecstatic. 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:06.320 I mean, he's a rookie with a cultural impact. So 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:08.440 I think in a lot of the same ways. Although 0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:10.400 it wasn't as declared because people aren't used to having 0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:13.000 him around as much, but you could tell that, you know, 0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:15.080 the way he approached the game had an impact on 0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:15.840 the rest of the unit. 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:22.160 Yeah, it's relief. It's relief for that really run around 0:06:22.600 --> 0:06:24.279 and this is a room that you know we've talked 0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:27.400 about has been hit time after time this season, a 0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:31.400 very heavily impacted room, starting, you know, with Sam Williams 0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:33.920 going out, and then you had Tank and then Mark 0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:36.400 Shawn and then Micah, Like it was just one thing 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:38.320 after another. So now that you can slowly kind of 0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:41.400 start to build back what I think Mike Zimmer's vision 0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:45.160 was for this D room. It really just puts you 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:47.520 in a good position as far as going forward, you 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:50.000 can start to see more of what the vision actually was, 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:52.200 because I truly believe what you're seeing out of Mike 0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:55.000 Zimmer's defense is not what he had planned given the 0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:59.760 amount of injuries to key significant players younger or older, 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:03.279 a Tank Lawrence or Marshawn Kneeland. When you have both 0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:07.719 ends of those spectrum out, that impacts your vision significantly, 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:10.040 and I think that's kind of what you're seeing now. 0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:14.320 But it brings relief. It brings relief to everybody around, 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:17.360 including the coaching staff who could scheme upon his return. 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:18.000 Yeah. 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:22.280 No, I mean I'm excited for Marshawn Kneelan one of 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:25.120 my favorite players coming out of this draft. I think 0:07:25.160 --> 0:07:27.560 he came out and showed very early why he was 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:30.880 drafted those first few games, just showing that run stopping 0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:34.840 ability and the soundness that he plays with as a defender, 0:07:34.880 --> 0:07:38.120 as a run defender specifically. But he was before he 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:41.120 got injured, starting to show some pass rush ability, starting 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:44.600 to have a pass rush plan, showing that heaviness in 0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:47.520 his hands, and so I hope that he's able to 0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:51.520 continue to build upon that and in regard to Zimmer's defense, 0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:54.520 as you mentioned just, I do think that we are 0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:58.680 seeing this defense make little improvements every week, and one 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:01.000 thing that they are doing well is getting pressure, but 0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:03.960 they're not getting home. And I think that maybe not 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:07.400 right away, but his presence will eventually start helping because 0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:09.880 he can push, he can push the pocket. He's still 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:14.440 very strong, so we'll see how his impact allows Zimmer 0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:16.600 to maybe do some things that he's been wanting to do, 0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:20.400 as you were talking about just and yeah, again, I 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:23.160 didn't want him to miss his whole rookie year, so 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:24.600 I'm happy that he's on the field again. 0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:26.320 It kind of goes back to what you were saying 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:29.360 yesterday about now you kind of just sit back and evaluate, 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:32.880 especially with getting guys back. 0:08:32.760 --> 0:08:33.679 Later in the season. 0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:36.280 And it's unfortunate that they had to deal with injuries 0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:38.640 the entire year leading up into Week eleven. 0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:46.199 But I mean, now, wow, I feel like he just 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:49.160 it feels like he just got injured, and it feels 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:51.320 like the season just started. 0:08:51.840 --> 0:08:55.400 Yes, to me, it feels much longer than it's actually 0:08:55.440 --> 0:09:01.840 been since he got injured, because I was about to 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:12.400 be possitive by faster, a much dark at four PM, No. 0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:16.199 I'm expected every week the practice report came through. 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:22.200 Because whoa, I was waiting for that. All right, here 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:24.760 we go, here, we get here. You already ready for really? 0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:27.720 You already ready? I guess actually ready? 0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:29.640 No, no, no, I need some more energy because that wasn't it. 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:32.359 We're ready. 0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:36.720 It's a little bit better, all right. Doron Bland full participant, 0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:41.959 Brady Cooks limited as expected, too many doga full participant. 0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:45.800 Jake Ferguson did not participate obviously concussion from week eleven. 0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:50.400 UH Tyler Guiden full participant, Eric Kendricks limited, Marshaw Neeland limited, 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:55.160 Seedy Lamb limited, back foot injury, Jordan Lewis limited. He 0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:56.720 did say today in locker room. 0:09:56.600 --> 0:09:57.760 That he feels good. 0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:00.520 He's still expecting to play on Sunday against the Commanders. 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:04.000 Uh Hana Lipke, Zach Martin, Tyler Smith, Nick Vigil did 0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:09.559 not participate in today's practice, So m still another lengthy 0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:13.040 injury report. But who stands out there? 0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:16.360 City's still dealing with the ac joint thing as well, 0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:17.920 because he's been. 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.720 Embrace on it has his back foot. 0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:21.720 Yeah, but I was just wondering if he was. 0:10:22.640 --> 0:10:24.280 He's just he's fighting through it. 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:24.640 He is. 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:29.280 I mean, nothing really surprises me on that, nothing really 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:31.600 stands out. What I did like to hear was Doron 0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:34.880 Bland being a full participant. That's who you know I 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:38.840 have been waiting to see and and not just me, everybody, 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:42.160 And honestly, if any room needs relief, we're talking about relief. 0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:45.680 It is that cornerback room and Deron Bland. You know, 0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:47.720 I think they'll kind of inch him in a little bit. 0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:50.160 They're not really going to full blown put you out 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:52.199 there every single snap. You know he's coming back from 0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:55.319 an injury. But to get that relief out there and 0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:58.680 just have that name again, that respect on the field, 0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:01.160 coming off of a record for making season last year, 0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:04.480 that makes people question what they're doing. Especially when you're 0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:05.400 talking about a rookie. 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:07.320 Quarterback coming in this who. 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:12.000 Is going to get saying you don't necessarily have the 0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:14.440 rookie to pick on anymore. If you have a Darn 0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:16.559 Blend and a Trayvon Diggs side by side, you don't 0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:18.840 really have a week side anymore. If you will, And 0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:21.000 not to say Kayling Carson is week I'm just saying 0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:25.000 there's a different respect that quarterbacks and opposing offensive coordinators 0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:26.840 do not have for Kayling Carson yet. 0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:30.360 I'm gonna say yet because it will come. Was he 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:31.120 on injury repoor? 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:33.640 He not on her? 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:34.000 No? 0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:38.120 Okay, why because he will? 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:41.640 I don't know if you had like no, no, you 0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:45.000 just didn't know if the shoulder was Yeah, because I 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:48.360 was trying to figure out the decision to start Israel 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:49.320 mccombell last week. 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.480 I mean, is that again, is that a corners are 0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:55.800 like kickers if the feelings get hurt. If I had, 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:58.720 they got to bounce back. He seemed fine and lockery. 0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:01.880 He's not sure, he's fine. I he that's the type 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:04.360 of person he is. I'm not worried about his confidence. 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:08.080 I'm wondering if they're trying to figure things out or 0:12:08.640 --> 0:12:11.000 or they just throwing things at the wall trying to 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:13.840 figure things out at this point. And also, Israel mcuomo, 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:16.400 if I'm not mistaken, is on his last year. He 0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:19.360 iss so maybe they're trying to give him an opportunity 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:19.920 as well. 0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:22.599 I also think he's earned it at this point. I 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:25.120 think is he's been patient, He's waited until his number 0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:27.800 has been called and his whole crew, and I really 0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:30.920 think at this point in the season, when you're down 0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:32.880 to your last wire. Why not give the guy that's 0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:35.840 earned it and busted his tail to always be there 0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:39.240 the shot. I mean, Kaitlyn got his shot, and yes 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:42.280 it's been rough, but I think it was here. 0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:48.559 Next year exactly, he's gonna be here exactly. Yeah, yes, sure, 0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:51.120 what year does he know he was? He went in 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:53.640 the fish? Yeah, you know he went in the fish. 0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:56.400 Oh yeah, yeah, he'll be here. 0:12:56.240 --> 0:13:00.360 Next fifth round. Players don't get the same opportunity you're 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:01.000 going to be here. 0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:02.520 That's fair. 0:13:02.679 --> 0:13:05.280 But I also think looking at the the laundry list 0:13:05.320 --> 0:13:08.200 of free agents, and you're right, think he has a 0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:10.160 better shot being here than he'll be fine something. 0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:12.040 That's a guy like Al Harris in his corner who 0:13:12.040 --> 0:13:13.960 absolutely loves him in this room. 0:13:14.760 --> 0:13:17.560 So guy's going to reserve my enthusiasm on Deron Bland 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:19.360 just because he's been a full participant before. 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:21.199 That's very true, and that is true. 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:24.120 I mean, I'm just excited to see consistency in the 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:27.480 full participancy here, and not to say we don't know 0:13:27.520 --> 0:13:30.000 what's gonna happen com Sunday, but to see it consistently 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:31.800 happen to me, that's always a really good sign that 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:33.280 you're on an upward tick to returning. 0:13:33.360 --> 0:13:36.440 I don't know what his rehabits look like, but I 0:13:36.440 --> 0:13:39.880 do understand like in how he plays and the agressives 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.440 that he plays with, being able to have confident in 0:13:42.480 --> 0:13:45.800 that foot, to plant, to drive, to go to turn 0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:48.000 his hips, all those things is something that's going to 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:51.640 take time. So I just want to see him. I'll 0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:54.120 be watching him very closely if he does get to play, 0:13:54.800 --> 0:13:58.360 his movement, his body language is all those things about him, 0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:02.040 because it's kinda will make some special like that to me. 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:04.320 It's kind of what makes them special is the footwork, 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:07.040 is the ability to take some risks that other people 0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:09.880 maybe can't do. And so I'm looking. I'm just gonna 0:14:09.880 --> 0:14:12.000 be paying attention to that, letting him slowly but surely. 0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:14.160 Foot injuries are serious. Have y'all stumped? Y'all's told you 0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:17.200 thought you was gonna die. Imagine fracturing something in there. 0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:23.560 So the O, yeah, you want to you want to fight? 0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:29.480 I did literally tell you trying to box whatever you 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:30.240 hit your toe on. 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:33.520 So imagine squaring up with the track. 0:14:33.800 --> 0:14:35.360 I almost did. So. 0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:39.120 Just imagine having a broken foot. It is so the 0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:41.040 bones in your foot are so delicate. I'm sure you 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:43.240 know that. So it's like it is gonna take him 0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:46.320 some time. So I'm with them and the muscle sister. 0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:57.320 So whenever he decided anything and insane, uh wait till 0:14:57.320 --> 0:15:00.320 he comes back, goes to words. 0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:01.440 DeMarcus Lawrence. 0:15:01.440 --> 0:15:09.200 He was seen in the building today.

He ain't letting 0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:24.920 no injury yeah deter him. 0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:27.880 Well, he's a free agent next year, so exactly will 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:28.440 he be back? 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:30.520 All right, let's not think about that right now. 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:32.640 I'm but no. 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:35.600 Yeah, it was just good to hear from DeMarcus Lawrence 0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:38.520 and the fact that he's just kind of taken his 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:40.880 time and rehabbing.

You 0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:41.840 look at the NFC standings, and the Cowboys right now 0:18:41.880 --> 0:18:43.560 are five games behind. 0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:44.760 The Eagles, who are first. 0:18:45.080 --> 0:18:47.400 Then you look at second sitting at seven to four, 0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:51.200 seven and four as the Washington Commander. So the Cowboys 0:18:51.200 --> 0:18:57.160 are now three games behind the Washington Commanders. Let's start 0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:59.159 with what a win I mean. You look at the 0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:02.840 Cowboys record three and seven. Would a win right now 0:19:03.720 --> 0:19:04.600 mean anything? 0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:07.960 This is just a question, okay, but what it mean 0:19:08.240 --> 0:19:10.000 for the Cowboys a. 0:19:10.000 --> 0:19:14.280 Win considering because they considering what they would have to 0:19:14.320 --> 0:19:16.959 do to win, a win would actually mean a lot 0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:19.439 right now. It would mean that the players still have 0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:21.440 a high enough morale to actually go out there and try. 0:19:21.520 --> 0:19:24.240 Because while the Commanders, they're not perfect by any means, 0:19:24.560 --> 0:19:27.200 but they have done some impressive things this season. Like 0:19:27.320 --> 0:19:28.280 Jayden Daniels has. 0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:29.080 Looked really good. 0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:31.959 It sounds like he's bouncing back from that rib injury. 0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:33.280 So it. 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:36.080 From what I'm hearing, it sounds like the Commanders are 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:37.800 expecting this to be somewhat of a get right game. 0:19:37.800 --> 0:19:40.600 They're on like a two game losing skid, you know, 0:19:40.920 --> 0:19:43.160 and they're looking to correct some things against the Cowboys. 0:19:43.240 --> 0:19:46.359 So if the Dallas Cowboys are able to approach this 0:19:46.440 --> 0:19:49.480 game with the mindset and the work ethic that's required 0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:52.000 to go up against a team who feels like pretty 0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:54.040 much like they should be able to win this game, 0:19:54.119 --> 0:19:56.080 and that they can use this game to correct some 0:19:56.119 --> 0:19:58.840 of the things that they haven't been getting right, it 0:19:58.840 --> 0:20:02.200 would mean that they they've gotten a consistent run game going. 0:20:02.200 --> 0:20:04.440 It would mean that the defense is stopping the run. 0:20:04.480 --> 0:20:06.520
