Speaker 1: the best in studio attendance because you you were show
Speaker 1: up virtually, but you ain't the business studio attended. I
Speaker 1: ain't tripping man. We know we're talking about too. I'm
Speaker 1: all good this. This man had missed so much time.
Speaker 1: He trying to make himself feel good about all that
Speaker 1: time he had missed. But you still you still ahead
Speaker 1: of the class and miss attendants. But it's okay because
Speaker 1: we still love you. It is there, ye, beat is

Speaker 1: We got our team, Danny murch y'all do we? So?
Speaker 1: Not only is the man don't have a perfect attend
Speaker 1: This is back to back weeks of my man. He
Speaker 1: got the most team, Danny murch In. This in this
Speaker 1: room and don't put it on. Here's what I do.
Speaker 1: Got the most that I got something. I got a
Speaker 1: tip for it. What happened? Leave it in the car.
Speaker 1: You're right about it. You told me that before, and
Speaker 1: I should. I saw him last night, but I talked
Speaker 1: about see I'll wear the shirts more than just in
Speaker 1: the studio. That's why I gotta wash them and stuff.
Speaker 1: You'll wear him out, you know in the car. By
Speaker 1: the way, I'm pointing the TV NFL network's got Mark
Speaker 1: Andrews on. I remember talking to Mark Andrews after Texas
Speaker 1: Oklahoma game and I said, I think you'd fit really
Speaker 1: good with the Cowboys. Ain't gonna be behind it too.
Speaker 1: They didn't, you know, spark, spark, but look at it now,
Speaker 1: look at it that I that's when it's when a
Speaker 1: few times, like you know, I thought like that guy
Speaker 1: can play in his league. And boy, he's had a
Speaker 1: nice career up there, and he's on my fantasy team. Man,
Speaker 1: good playing three years of a row. I got Darren Waller,
Speaker 1: so well, it's not gonna be a good week for him.
Speaker 1: I got Taylor out here. No, I mean, I got
Speaker 1: Grunt too, So I might go ahead and make that
Speaker 1: little little switch on that he might want to do that, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I might. I'm thinking about it. Let me tell you something.
Speaker 1: If you have any Raiders players, do not start them
Speaker 1: this week. Why is that? Because the because the top
Speaker 1: two defense that I'm seeing, it's gonna show up. So
Speaker 1: he moving up the rankings this week last fifteen again,
Speaker 1: so I need to sit Josh Jacobson put in Kareem Hunt.
Speaker 1: Then on my face, YE would probably be smart of you. Okay,
Speaker 1: you're the one to send me the PFL whatever we
Speaker 1: top five defense, you saw it. Yeah, but I'm not
Speaker 1: a PFL guy. I learned the hard way. Start my rhyme.
Speaker 1: I am out. You can't do it, okay, Um, pretty
Speaker 1: funny stuff. Funny stuff here, all right? Um, the Cowboys
Speaker 1: uh will play in this Raiders game. And there a
Speaker 1: couple of questions for tomorrow's game that we're trying to
Speaker 1: get kind of nailed down. First one, let's start with
Speaker 1: the offensive line. Tyran Smith has practiced. Tyrean Smith is
Speaker 1: Tyren Smith's gonna play. He's gonna play on the left side,
Speaker 1: thank you. Tyre Smith's gonna play. And I think we're
Speaker 1: gonna go ahead. Look at the other side and see
Speaker 1: um tire steel at right tackle. That's what participate. That's
Speaker 1: what I'm lisipating. Hasn't been saying. Yeah, but I think
Speaker 1: that's the right way to go. Why not. The man
Speaker 1: earned the spot. He earned it. He had his five
Speaker 1: six weeks in there to do what it does. They
Speaker 1: went over the left tackle to see if he can
Speaker 1: perform like that, but he just didn't perform as well
Speaker 1: as he did on the right side. So I don't
Speaker 1: think he should be demoted just because he switched positions,
Speaker 1: because we need needed him to switch positions, and I mean,
Speaker 1: then if you go back to the right tackle spot,
Speaker 1: Collins act, you know you just can't be up in there.
Speaker 1: So to me, I think it's a good move by
Speaker 1: the Gobble. I hope, I hope woman still has his confidence.
Speaker 1: I hope he still has the belief that he has
Speaker 1: the freedom to make a mistake or two right, because
Speaker 1: you know what happens when you have somebody who is
Speaker 1: a possible starter behind you. You feel like that Leasha
Speaker 1: is short, right, So you go out there and you're
Speaker 1: worried about you overthinking making them making a bad play,
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden that stuff trickles down
Speaker 1: and you snowball effect and you start looking like the
Speaker 1: old terrors. Still, so hopefully the confidence is still there.
Speaker 1: The coaches have reassured him if he's starting that it's
Speaker 1: his position, and then I think he'll play well. So
Speaker 1: you then also have Connor mc government. They started him
Speaker 1: last week. I'm anticipating Garna mc government, you're not here
Speaker 1: and playing again, and let's see what you know, let's
Speaker 1: see what they can get done. That. I mean, the
Speaker 1: edges are gonna be under attacked this game because they
Speaker 1: got some they got some dogs over there as far
Speaker 1: as edge rushers, would he go Way and Max Crosby,
Speaker 1: both those guys so Colleville's own indeed local guys, so okay,
Speaker 1: are going to be under the tackle. So you got you,
Speaker 1: You've got that. And that is the chant. That is
Speaker 1: the challenge for this offensive line. Block it up and
Speaker 1: run run the ball. Okay. That that that's that. That's
Speaker 1: That's what I'm asking for you right there? Can you
Speaker 1: put that in the coming box or the complaint box,
Speaker 1: whatever it is. It just middle that thing going up
Speaker 1: to the to the top. What they can do it? Goodness,
Speaker 1: what we should all middle it in like right, like
Speaker 1: thirty of them a piece, so get ninety ninety pieces
Speaker 1: of mild to say and I'll I just say it's
Speaker 1: run on this run. They're gonna be like, why ain't
Speaker 1: it on there? Though? I remember one time when Parcels
Speaker 1: was talking about something he was trying to get Mike
Speaker 1: Zimmer to do Zimmer at the time. It is his
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator, and he said to the meeting at some
Speaker 1: point in time, it's not a suggestion. Listen, you gotta
Speaker 1: do it, and that's that's what needs to happen. As
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy is the head coach. That's what you said
Speaker 1: to the office scorn. This isn't a suggestion. It's what
Speaker 1: he said in this press press conference, I think it
Speaker 1: was two days ago where he said, hey, we the
Speaker 1: thing that I was kind of disappointed about was we
Speaker 1: didn't establish the run. We kind of got away from
Speaker 1: the run too quickly, and we weren't able to use
Speaker 1: that to help our game. In the situations that we
Speaker 1: were in defensive playing well, we helped them out by
Speaker 1: running the ball. Now I'm paraphrasing what he said, but
Speaker 1: he seemed like he had an issue with us not
Speaker 1: running the ball or sticking to the run long enough
Speaker 1: in order for it to become effective. Yeah, I would.
Speaker 1: I would. I agree with that because it wasn't like
Speaker 1: the game was just blown out of proportions like they
Speaker 1: were up, you know, twenty one points. We had to
Speaker 1: go in there, we had to throw the ball there
Speaker 1: was always within you know, shooting range right there. You know,
Speaker 1: we're always either seven or ten points down. And I
Speaker 1: don't see that as being too big of a deficit
Speaker 1: to just go ahead and throw away the run game
Speaker 1: and just go straight to the pass game. But maybe
Speaker 1: they just thought, you know, they're more momentum with the
Speaker 1: pass game, that the game was swaying here and there,
Speaker 1: and maybe they thought the pass would be able to
Speaker 1: get them further down the field. But to me, I
Speaker 1: think you gotta establish with Wilson and Brown there dropping everything. Listen,
Speaker 1: take the pressure off of those guys. Man, it's you
Speaker 1: have to be able to I'm no offensive coordinator, so
Speaker 1: you need to be able to adjust. Right if they
Speaker 1: take away one thing or one thing isn't working, you
Speaker 1: have to be able to lean on something else. You
Speaker 1: can't just keep on throwing stuff at the wall man
Speaker 1: hoping it's thick like bro, We've seen this story already.
Speaker 1: We saw this against Denver. We saw it. You got
Speaker 1: away from the run. Now, we did get those two
Speaker 1: trash such ounds at the end, but they stifled us
Speaker 1: and we had nothing else to lean on. And that
Speaker 1: is that has been an obvious problem for us in
Speaker 1: these games where week that we've lost, the Cowboys had
Speaker 1: sixteen rushing attempts for eighty two yards. Not enough. That's
Speaker 1: that's unacceptable. Clyde Edwards Hilaire had twelve by himself for
Speaker 1: Kansas City. Kansas City had twenty six, and that's just
Speaker 1: not what they do. No. Twenty six rushes by Kansas City.
Speaker 1: I don't know how what high that is, but it's
Speaker 1: probably top three and rushing attempts for them this year.
Speaker 1: So that's a game plan that I find unacceptable. In
Speaker 1: terms of sixteen rushing attempts, forty three passes you're split between,
Speaker 1: and that's split between Tony Pollard, Dang and Zeke nine carries.
Speaker 1: I mean, we've seen when this is when this offense
Speaker 1: is at its peak. Powers King, we are blending goodness
Speaker 1: to fuel your greatness. Every blend is crafted to help
Speaker 1: you achieve your health. And he's going to hit you
Speaker 1: with the twenty to thirty yard big gains anymore. But
Speaker 1: he's still gonna be able to wear a defense down
Speaker 1: for three yards in a cloud of us here, five
Speaker 1: yards there, four yards here, And we've seen so far
Speaker 1: this season when that happens in the fourth quarter defenses
Speaker 1: are shining away. They want no parts of Zeke out there.
Speaker 1: So I think as a whole we just I mean,
Speaker 1: we agree on this one. We abandoned the run too
Speaker 1: far or too soon, and hopefully we can get back
Speaker 1: to that balance approach when we go into the Raiders
Speaker 1: on Thursday. So Zeke had nine rushes and six catches, like,
Speaker 1: it should not be even. It should not be that
Speaker 1: close for a for the style of running back that's hill.
Speaker 1: It is right, it should not be that close. It's
Speaker 1: just me be somewhere like twenty and five, twenty and
Speaker 1: five and those five should be screened. And a couple
Speaker 1: of flat routes we have I don't even think we do.
Speaker 1: We throw a little screens. I saw one screen where
Speaker 1: it was a miscommunication when he was supposed to be
Speaker 1: getting the screen, and it just kind of didn't work out.
Speaker 1: I know why because of those early little bubble screens
Speaker 1: and the one shots didn't block. Anybody got a man
Speaker 1: dumped on his head, and I think it was another
Speaker 1: somebody else ended up not blocking at all, So that's
Speaker 1: why I probably, But how does that work for you
Speaker 1: when the team knows you're going to throw or run
Speaker 1: a screen, like you're not running the ball. So look
Speaker 1: at first, it ain't going nowhere with the game playing
Speaker 1: they got. So it's just I don't think it's conducing
Speaker 1: for successful so offensive line with an opportunity to establish
Speaker 1: the run and get that Kansas City loss behind them.
Speaker 1: Also another reason to run the football is your questions.
Speaker 1: A wide receiver Marty Cooper is not going to play
Speaker 1: in this game because of COVID and CD LAMB. It
Speaker 1: is still technically in concussion protocol. So in order for
Speaker 1: him to play, it's got to be cleared by an
Speaker 1: independent doctor to play in this football game. So you
Speaker 1: could be could be without Cooper and Lamb. That means
Speaker 1: you run football. You need gave him ninety meal for
Speaker 1: a reason. You know you gotta lean one, depend on
Speaker 1: your defense and run the ball. Have confidence in your defense.
Speaker 1: We talked about this other day when when you watch
Speaker 1: that Kansas City game, it seemed like the offense, whoever
Speaker 1: was calling the players or or the game plan throughout
Speaker 1: the game, didn't have confidence that the defense was going
Speaker 1: to continue to stop Patrick Mahomes. In that offense, it
Speaker 1: was like they were playing pressing, like hey man, this
Speaker 1: is probably the last stop our defence is gonna get
Speaker 1: We gotta go down there and score a touchdown because
Speaker 1: if we don't, they're gonna blow blow this game, wilt open.
Speaker 1: And that just wasn't the case. So half confidence in
Speaker 1: your defense, lean on the running game, and then and
Speaker 1: let that, let that play together. You might get some
Speaker 1: place for specialties. We've been blocking plums like crazy, so
Speaker 1: you have a chance no matter what. So just stick
Speaker 1: to you, stick to your game plan. Your thoughts on
Speaker 1: Michael Irvin who went off on Ari Cooper for not
Speaker 1: being vaccinated, and then you had Jerry Jones on his
Speaker 1: own show saying, hey, that popp us, that pop us.
Speaker 1: But basically this was something we were not expecting here.
Speaker 1: Teammates in the locker room have publicly supported Amari Cooper's
Speaker 1: decision along with the head coach. Totally understand that. I
Speaker 1: think that's the way to go. Got it to him.
Speaker 1: But Jerry and Michael Irvin not happy with Cooper. Your thoughts, Yeah, listen,
Speaker 1: I think I think it's a tough thing. But I
Speaker 1: look at it and say, what else are the players
Speaker 1: are gonna do? Right? Like? You gotta stick together. It's
Speaker 1: it's those guys in the locker room and they try
Speaker 1: to block out outside noise. But I do believe that
Speaker 1: there are some people that are like man, like I wish,
Speaker 1: I wish that he would be vaccinated so we wouldn't
Speaker 1: be missing missing him for this extended period of time.
Speaker 1: But on the other hand, you know, everybody's saying that,
Speaker 1: you know, it's his decision. The thing is they knew
Speaker 1: he was no vaccinated and he still been here and arousal.
Speaker 1: So that's something that is unexpected as it is should
Speaker 1: have been expected at some point in time that like,
Speaker 1: there is a possibility that this could come up, not
Speaker 1: just now, but also it could come up again, So
Speaker 1: don't be surprised with this, all right, So you shouldn't
Speaker 1: be playing accordingly for any of the players that you
Speaker 1: have done to unvaccinated to know that we should have
Speaker 1: a backup playing ready because we have no idea when
Speaker 1: they may miss extended time. Yeah, I mean, I definitely understand,
Speaker 1: like you said, the players, they're gonna have their their
Speaker 1: you know, the brothers back, They're gonna say all the
Speaker 1: supporting things they need, and like you said, the probably
Speaker 1: of them come back in their mind. Like man, I
Speaker 1: wish we had Coop for this game. But it's his
Speaker 1: personal decision, and you know he has all right to
Speaker 1: have that personal decision. And I understand on the other
Speaker 1: side with Jerry Jones, you know why him, why him
Speaker 1: being so upset. We know how he how bad he
Speaker 1: wants that next Super Bowl ring. He wants it. It's
Speaker 1: so bad he wants it he could taste it and
Speaker 1: for he and he also sees how this different, this
Speaker 1: offense is without a Mark Cooper, whether it's out him
Speaker 1: out there catching a bunch of passes getting touchdowns, or
Speaker 1: him being just that guy that's taking up all the
Speaker 1: coverage and he's letting Cede Lamb and letting um, I
Speaker 1: said Wilson, and know those other guys eat. He sees
Speaker 1: a difference when he's in and out and he says,
Speaker 1: and he popped us. It popped us because he was like, man,
Speaker 1: we're right there, We're on the cusp of taking this
Speaker 1: whole thing and maybe even getting that number one spot.
Speaker 1: And then boom, we had a guy get COVID and
Speaker 1: he's gonna miss this game, but he's gonna miss the
Speaker 1: next game because he wasn't vaccinating. And we know how
Speaker 1: the protocols going on that so I understand why Jerry's upset,
Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, it's a Mark
Speaker 1: Cooper's personal decision, and that's how they got a live
Speaker 1: I remember you bringing up a return on investment. Uh
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. Let me tell you something. ROI on a
Speaker 1: couple of these guys that have been on the roster. R.
Speaker 1: ROI on Oleo Collins, ROI on Jayleen Smith and then
Speaker 1: on Cooper. Now Smith is call sunken, calls sucker cous now.
Speaker 1: But I'm just like, like, these guys are getting paid.
Speaker 1: These are some of your high paid players who stay
Speaker 1: on point. In what you just said, and this is
Speaker 1: what Michael Lavin had said. The TMZ said quote, I
Speaker 1: don't know what word to put on it, but I'm
Speaker 1: absolutely hot about it. Are you joking? I got a
Speaker 1: guy named Cedric Wilson catching pastors who makes two million,
Speaker 1: a guy named Noah Brown who makes one million, and
Speaker 1: I got a guy who makes twenty one million on
Speaker 1: the bench at home not playing. It's crazy. That's Michael
Speaker 1: Irvin and how he felt about Amari Cooper not playing.
Speaker 1: He also said, our job as athletes is to try
Speaker 1: to remove any reason for not winning the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: It's why I condition, So fatigue isn't the reason that
Speaker 1: I lose the super Bowl. It's why I go overplays
Speaker 1: a million times, so that a mistake is not the
Speaker 1: reason why I lose the super Bowl. You have to
Speaker 1: try to mitigate any issues that cost you a game
Speaker 1: or a super Bowl, and COVID is one of them.
Speaker 1: You go get vaccinated to try to mitigate it as
Speaker 1: best you can. Now, you can still get it after
Speaker 1: you get vaccinated, but it's a different percentage of you
Speaker 1: percentage chance of you getting it. All I need you
Speaker 1: to do is get that different percentage chance. So I'm
Speaker 1: hot for a Maria Cooper not doing that. This is
Speaker 1: Michael Irvin in his comments on it all Right, Jerry
Speaker 1: Jones said, Amari Cooper is outstanding. He's one of the
Speaker 1: highest character guys that you will ever be around in
Speaker 1: any arena. He's out standing in his introspect and how
Speaker 1: he does things. Nobody is saying he isn't outstanding. But
Speaker 1: this is a classic case of how it can impact
Speaker 1: a team. At the end of the day, this is
Speaker 1: a team. You cannot win anything individually. The point is
Speaker 1: it popped us. This did pop us. That's the quote
Speaker 1: it might not be the last time you get popped.
Speaker 1: I mean, just being real. I mean if you look around,
Speaker 1: uh watching watching any news about COVID and you're seeing
Speaker 1: the cases rising during wintertime, I mean, it's not going
Speaker 1: away anytime. So Lamar Jackson got twice. Yeah, Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: got twice. Case in pointing and you're what you're saying
Speaker 1: here is something to take very seriously. Okay, you're talking
Speaker 1: about wintertime cases going up. When's the super Bowl? When
Speaker 1: the blast January February? So this is this is an issue.
Speaker 1: And so we talked about yesterday when you're out and
Speaker 1: I said, I'm the next question I'd love to ask
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones if you had the conversation with Amari Cooper
Speaker 1: or any other player on your team that's not vaccinated
Speaker 1: about Reek considering their stands. That's a tough one. That's
Speaker 1: a tough one right there, because that's that's a slippy.
Speaker 1: If I owned the football team and you weren't vaccinated, Barry,
Speaker 1: and you you missed a game, I go ask it
Speaker 1: the same thing, Danny, Hey, have you reconsidered it? Because
Speaker 1: as Jerry talked about, I want to five through the fan.
Speaker 1: The league made it punitive. They're trying to make it hard.
Speaker 1: If you don't get hey, you'renna miss some time. You
Speaker 1: can cut a miss some time here. So shout out
Speaker 1: to Michael Galli Man very important these days, got on
Speaker 1: very important these days. Chris Bean, well, he would produce
Speaker 1: on it today. Chris Bean says he's got the quote
Speaker 1: from Jerry here, So so let's hear Jerry on one
Speaker 1: or five through the fan. H This was with Sean
Speaker 1: and R Jay talking about Annamari Cooper again. I said
Speaker 1: it early. You checked me at the door and a
Speaker 1: football team that has nothing to do with the issues
Speaker 1: of masking, not masking, getting vaccinated, not getting back nd
Speaker 1: and if I have a tone, I shouldn't. It just
Speaker 1: has nothing to do with it. The facts are, it
Speaker 1: is a wee thing. When you walk into the locker
Speaker 1: room and anybody is being counted on to pull his weight,
Speaker 1: everybody expects that. They look around at each other. They
Speaker 1: understand everybody's rights. They do, we do. Everybody understands our
Speaker 1: rights and our options as it pertained to those rights.
Speaker 1: But can you if you forget that it's a wee
Speaker 1: thing and how important your part is. Obviously, these guys
Speaker 1: are rewarded. They're rewarded financially. Now, Mark Cooper is outstanding, folks.
Speaker 1: He's one of the highest character guys that you will
Speaker 1: ever be around in any area. And he's outstanding in mind,
Speaker 1: in his introspect and how he does things. When it
Speaker 1: was at the Raiders for a year or two, he
Speaker 1: set up a library for the players to read during
Speaker 1: their break, would say him. So my point is he's
Speaker 1: an outstanding and we're not in any way nobody's saying
Speaker 1: that he is an outstanding. But this is a classic
Speaker 1: case of hack can impact a team when people are
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, this is not individual,
Speaker 1: it is team. You cannot win anything individually. It's really
Speaker 1: clear he's he's upset. No, he's not happy. Now he's
Speaker 1: not happy. And it's two games because of the short,
Speaker 1: short weekend. And now you got lamb who you guys
Speaker 1: have played you two played the game your safeties for
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. It's concussion. Man. I can't see him
Speaker 1: getting because because like you just said, he has to
Speaker 1: get passed by an independent doctor. Right, So if that
Speaker 1: independent doctor passes him and something happens to him in
Speaker 1: the game, isn't on that specific doctor that he said
Speaker 1: it's okay for that got to go in or is
Speaker 1: it just you know, I think the severity of what happened,
Speaker 1: because did he get the concussion when he I think
Speaker 1: the severity of is must be lighting the fact that
Speaker 1: he was at practice on Monday, because usually they try
Speaker 1: to keep you out of out of the lights because
Speaker 1: it kind of affects you. So if he's not having
Speaker 1: any of those residual effects of the concussion, then I'm assuming, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, with how stranger they've been on concussions, that
Speaker 1: that he must be okay to move forward. We'll see.
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty quick. Um. But I also I
Speaker 1: don't know if he would just pulled out of the
Speaker 1: game for precautionary reasons or if he couldn't recite ABC
Speaker 1: you know in one, two three was helping him off
Speaker 1: the field almost time. Man, let's let's trainer, Yeah, let's
Speaker 1: hit a break here. Um, we'll see how this this
Speaker 1: situation transpires, but but let's let's keep an eye out
Speaker 1: on it here. Cowboys have had issues in their last
Speaker 1: two Thanksgiving Day games. We will dive into that one.

Speaker 1: at five, ESPN has Dallas at five, my man Rick
Speaker 1: Gozlin over at the Mayvin, and Sports Illustrate has Dallas eight. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he went Arizona, Tampa, Green Bay, La, Rams, Tennessee, Baltimore,
Speaker 1: Kansas City. Then he went with the Cap Tennessee just
Speaker 1: gets smacked up, But yeah, but they were rolling. Thought
Speaker 1: they was rolling. They lost on a division Gangs of Texas, right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: they lost in the division game. Tyrod Taylor came back.
Speaker 1: They you know, it's one of the things where you
Speaker 1: like hell through four picks because don't there is the problem.
Speaker 1: But the Texas defense has been playing well over the
Speaker 1: last few weeks. I don't believe in the quarterback. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: I was a product of the run game. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: without the Henry because it does a lot when you
Speaker 1: can just fake that, fake that, dad, because you know,
Speaker 1: the whole defense is gonna try to get Henry before
Speaker 1: he gets started, and it does a lot for you.
Speaker 1: So let's do this. So so two out of last
Speaker 1: three weeks they've had huge wins because they won without
Speaker 1: did Henry, and two out of the last three weeks
Speaker 1: we have horrible losses. So I can understand why Tennessee
Speaker 1: would be ahead of us at this At this point
Speaker 1: in time, like I said, they ran into like Tyrod
Speaker 1: Taylor and them, we were surprised at how will they
Speaker 1: were playing before he got hurt. And then at the
Speaker 1: beginning of the season Brandon cooks us out there going crazy.
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor was playing well at quarterback as he always
Speaker 1: does when he steps in in that role. And they
Speaker 1: ran into Tennessee, and Tennessee thought it was gonna be
Speaker 1: a Kate walk for the Bronco like any given something
Speaker 1: to look at them okay ride, yeah, oh yeah, justice
Speaker 1: for Ahmad Abrey today the plays Amard Aubrey and praying
Speaker 1: flood his family because that's a tough situation. But there
Speaker 1: was a guilty verdict today, So shout out to that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: without a doubt. I thought many said something was pretty
Speaker 1: pretty interest. He said, it's accountability but not justice because
Speaker 1: this man's life will never be restored, or just so
Speaker 1: many things that have happened in this that is there
Speaker 1: really justice when when this happens and you say guilty
Speaker 1: verdict and I have gotten to the point where, Danny,
Speaker 1: I don't celebrate guilty verdicts. I look at what's the
Speaker 1: sentence in because we've seen a whole lot of folks
Speaker 1: get like sentences. Gotta start somewhere, though, because we've seen
Speaker 1: a lot of not guilty verdicts, So you gotta you
Speaker 1: gotta start somewhere. I'm gonna celebrate this that one piece
Speaker 1: until we get to the next one and then if
Speaker 1: I got to be upset about it, I will. But
Speaker 1: as of today they were found guilty of all charges. Right, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: I mean really how I mean that how the self
Speaker 1: defense work, even even the cameraman. But I think they
Speaker 1: were talking about it. In the state of Georgia. Everybody
Speaker 1: that is involved, if you was driving, if you was riding,
Speaker 1: if you was recording, you are an accomplice as well,
Speaker 1: so you will be charged as the other ones will.
Speaker 1: And all three of them got all the same charges.
Speaker 1: The saddest part for me is I used to live
Speaker 1: out there in that city and Brunswick. Brunswick is part
Speaker 1: of the whole Savannah, Georgia region over there at Brunswick.
Speaker 1: So he've been in Brunswick, you know, many a time,
Speaker 1: and that that you see something like that and just
Speaker 1: shake it. It was just about two years ago I
Speaker 1: went back there. I had to. I was doing something
Speaker 1: for Pembroke Peach Bell comm Okay, and I had my dad,
Speaker 1: my mom. Dad met me and my dad was stationed
Speaker 1: at Hunt Army Airfield in Savannah, Georgia, and I wanted
Speaker 1: him to take me back on. I can't go on
Speaker 1: on a military base. Um, I have to have him
Speaker 1: because he still has a military idea, so I have
Speaker 1: to go with him. So went down there, just drove around,
Speaker 1: you know, the city in the area, just wanted to
Speaker 1: reminisce having grown up down there for for four years.
Speaker 1: And when I saw that, it just it just hit me,
Speaker 1: like you know, you you lived in an area, you
Speaker 1: lived in this area, could be you. You know, somebody
Speaker 1: decides one day that they just think you're suspect or
Speaker 1: something that that that part of it just hit you,
Speaker 1: like you know that could. First of all, people don't
Speaker 1: realize they can say whatever they want to as as
Speaker 1: a black man. When when when I saw that happen,
Speaker 1: even though I knew I was staying in Frisco, Texas
Speaker 1: and I it was COVID, I was jogging around at
Speaker 1: the town and it was still on the back of
Speaker 1: your mind, like you like, all of a sudden, this
Speaker 1: became something that could possibly happen to you. So I'm
Speaker 1: like run, I'm jogging like man, I don't I don't
Speaker 1: know what. So it can affect you, It can affect you.
Speaker 1: So that that's rough. Cowboys have lost their last two
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving their games. You guys have played in Thanksgiving? How
Speaker 1: do you make sure you get this game because you've
Speaker 1: got the advantage because you're at home. Yeah, you don't
Speaker 1: have to travel. Your crowd is going to be behind you.
Speaker 1: This is an event game for the Cowboys. Fans are
Speaker 1: coming out there. I got five, bought five tickets. I'm
Speaker 1: going out here taking the family to the game. So
Speaker 1: I mean this is an event. How do you make
Speaker 1: sure this is not a loss and in fact, not
Speaker 1: back to back losses if you're the Cowboys. First of all,
Speaker 1: you got to come in here with the right mindset,
Speaker 1: all right, because you know, I think it's two weeks
Speaker 1: when we played Denver, we slept walking here. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: we came out last week and it ain't no sleepwalking.
Speaker 1: We got out played. So you need to come in
Speaker 1: here with the mindset of taking this upon it seriously
Speaker 1: and knowing that this is a game that you need
Speaker 1: to win. Playing as a complete team offensive coordinator, knowing
Speaker 1: your game plan, knowing what you have and don't have
Speaker 1: one offense, with your offensive line in your and your receivers,
Speaker 1: lean on the run game and let everything else will
Speaker 1: work off of that defense. Come out here and play
Speaker 1: like you've been playing. Continue to get better, but keep
Speaker 1: bringing the heat, Michael Parsons, do what you do. Dbans,
Speaker 1: try to go out there and get some get some takeaways,
Speaker 1: don't press, but make sure that you go out there
Speaker 1: and play the game that you know you can play,
Speaker 1: and you'll be okay. It's simple, it's simple to win it.
Speaker 1: Feed Zeke and feed Tony Pollard. I mean, that's what
Speaker 1: we got to do. Like you just said, we're out
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper. We may be without Lamb. I know gallups
Speaker 1: the hell of a player, but I don't think he
Speaker 1: could do it by seven. And you guys said Wilson
Speaker 1: nor Brown and those people, but we have got to
Speaker 1: lean on this running game. We know when Black I
Speaker 1: said earlier, when this offense is at his best, were
Speaker 1: extremely balanced. So Kellen Moore, I mean, we know he's
Speaker 1: been in this bag lately, but these past two games
Speaker 1: has been a little shaky. Feed Zeke, keep it going,
Speaker 1: let this defense rest a little bit, and then they
Speaker 1: come back and they can do what they do. But
Speaker 1: then quinning this defense on that side of the ball,
Speaker 1: they got to continue to find ways to make get
Speaker 1: pressure back there. I mean, he's done an amazing job
Speaker 1: of doing it without his two top dogs Lawrence and
Speaker 1: Gregory out there, but he has to make sure we
Speaker 1: continue to get after the quarterbacks. That's making the secondaries
Speaker 1: job a lot easier and that's how we're getting these takeaways.
Speaker 1: So if we can do that, and if Kellen Moore
Speaker 1: can go ahead and just feed Zeke, I think we
Speaker 1: should go ahead and wipe up, wipe the Raiders out,
Speaker 1: because I mean, if we're full healthy, our talent a
Speaker 1: loan should be able to overmatch the Raiders out there.
Speaker 1: This team is in free fall right now. This team
Speaker 1: is in outer freefall with all the stuff that's going
Speaker 1: on over there. They're an utter free fall. So feed Zeke,
Speaker 1: get this game knocked out quickly. What scares me about
Speaker 1: this killing Moore situation is the game plans. So far
Speaker 1: this season, we've been able to be talked out of
Speaker 1: running the ball, like we went in the Tampa game
Speaker 1: of like they talked the side of a based off
Speaker 1: what they did last year. Yeah all right, So I'm like,
Speaker 1: I feel like defensive coordinators are able to say, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, if we don't want them to run it,
Speaker 1: this is how we have to line up. And I
Speaker 1: hope that that doesn't make us start throwing all those
Speaker 1: quick screens and the extended running game like college where
Speaker 1: you got guys catching bubble screens every every other play.
Speaker 1: Run the ball, traditional run. Don't let them get you
Speaker 1: out of there. It is eight in the box, man
Speaker 1: on man, see see what you got? All right? Do
Speaker 1: you think there should be you know, more forced run
Speaker 1: calls instead of you know, dak at the line of
Speaker 1: scrimmage being able to check out the run to the past.
Speaker 1: So make sure there's more forced there's no different automatic
Speaker 1: because because the defensive coordinators are going to give you
Speaker 1: to look to make you check into what they want.
Speaker 1: That that is, that is I told that's what Rob
Speaker 1: Ryan used to do it us. All right, we have
Speaker 1: automatic formation shack right because we knew it. We lined
Speaker 1: up in one thing, they were gonna motion out to
Speaker 1: something else, and we had that specific call for that
Speaker 1: specific offense. Right, So, yes, they're gonna line up, they're
Speaker 1: gonna bring eight in the box, and they're gonna say, oh,
Speaker 1: they're gonna watch the Yeah, he's gonna check out of this,
Speaker 1: and it's usually gonna be whatever route and then we're
Speaker 1: gonna be stuck in that all game. Let's not do
Speaker 1: that as we are doing this uh podcast right now.
Speaker 1: They've got the Chiefs Cowboys game airing on NFL Network
Speaker 1: right right here. I've got a pretty interesting statistic that
Speaker 1: I want to get to you about Dak Prescott here.

Speaker 1: you know what I'm doing. There's a Dallas County Routy,
Speaker 1: there's a College County rod Terran County Ride, there's a
Speaker 1: Parker County Rody d Ridy about to make all these trips.
Speaker 1: I'm about to go all this money. He's about to
Speaker 1: spoil the whole rowdy experience for kids who want to

Speaker 1: But dog on it, I'm about I'm about to bring now.
Speaker 1: I don't know what Roddy costs, but I'm telling you

Speaker 1: put me in charge of some business aspects with Jerry kids.
Speaker 1: I want the original rowdy. It's crazy to do it
Speaker 1: think Jerry ain't thought of this already. But there's only
Speaker 1: one rowdy Newly, there's only one rowdy bro one row.
Speaker 1: That's a smart idea, though, Man, that's a smart idea. Man,
Speaker 1: I got I got maximized rowdy. Man, how much for
Speaker 1: new to play? Never? You might get crazy to think
Speaker 1: that Jerry Jones has not thought of this idea already.
Speaker 1: See see here immediately is my thought. People are booking
Speaker 1: these things. It takes forever in a day sometimes to
Speaker 1: get get across this large metroplex. Man, an amount of time,
Speaker 1: So what time it is? It depends just saying. Man,
Speaker 1: you know, I can't believe y'all not read into this,
Speaker 1: But that's cool, all right, would leave that y'all is
Speaker 1: going over y'all head like that. Donovan Wilson is on injured,
Speaker 1: reserved to mix the next three games. Your thoughts on
Speaker 1: the Cowboys safety there John. You know, you know, it
Speaker 1: sucks for him personally, but um, you know, I don't
Speaker 1: think it's that huge of a loss. I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: he was he was, he was rotating in there as well.
Speaker 1: It was Kazy and Curse the main two in there.
Speaker 1: So you know, hopefully it gets back, gets healthy and
Speaker 1: uh you know, it gets back on the field. But
Speaker 1: I don't see it being that huge of a loss. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's tough for him. We would really like to have depth,
Speaker 1: depth at the position because you never know what's gonna
Speaker 1: happen in the game. But I feel comfortable with the
Speaker 1: guys that we that we have left, that we have
Speaker 1: on the roster. Uh, they've all been playing well, including
Speaker 1: Donovan Wilson. So I think whoever's in the game is
Speaker 1: gonna play well. Darian Thompson's too on the roster. Yes,
Speaker 1: I think he's on the so yeah, yeah, he's still
Speaker 1: a Cowboy. Yeah. Cooy okay yea brother man, shout out,
Speaker 1: keep keep rolling? Did that? We need to get into
Speaker 1: the predictions, gentlemen, Cowboys Raiders. Raiders are a set even
Speaker 1: and a half point dog coming here to at and
Speaker 1: T Stadium. It is the third a should say the
Speaker 1: second of three Thanksgiving Day games always the secondary slot
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. Three twenty five is that time, man,
Speaker 1: I think it's the perfect time for thanks again for
Speaker 1: me because he got Okay, if I want that twelve,
Speaker 1: you want that that this? I think it. The line
Speaker 1: is in the eleven. I think it's early. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: take that. Get back. You get to the crid when
Speaker 1: you get the pick first winner, winner of the week, winner,
Speaker 1: winn at chicking dinner. This is this Raiders and this
Speaker 1: this Cowboys game. He said, there's seven and a half dollars,
Speaker 1: seven and a half man and a half dogs. Man,
Speaker 1: this Raiders team is in free fall. So off the rip.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say the Cowboys gonna get the dub off
Speaker 1: the rip. It may be a tad bit closer than
Speaker 1: uh than uh most people think, because I think I
Speaker 1: don't know Josh Jacobs. He's healthy, right, he's healthy for
Speaker 1: the most part, all right, and they got some weapons
Speaker 1: out there. But I'm gonna say Cowboys win thirty one
Speaker 1: twenty one. Get my ten point up, okay, all right?
Speaker 1: Because I got twenty seven twenty Cowboys. I think this
Speaker 1: is gonna be a stellar defensive performance. I think we're
Speaker 1: gonna continue to rise, rise up. I think we're gonna
Speaker 1: run the ball really really well. Um yeah, and I
Speaker 1: see us not covering. But seven point win? You putting
Speaker 1: curse on Waller? No, I mean Hi said like, I
Speaker 1: mean traycause because we've seen Trayvon Diggs cover pits. We've
Speaker 1: seen Traymon Digs cover Kelsey. So I think we're going
Speaker 1: to continue to see Trayvon Diggs be the guy who's covering.
Speaker 1: If if you run a cover one, I believe that
Speaker 1: Trayvon Diggs will be covering days if the number one option,
Speaker 1: even if he's attached to the line, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: he's say if he's put it split out at any
Speaker 1: point everybody. If he's yards attached, weird cover one, I
Speaker 1: believe that tray is gonna be on the But yeah,
Speaker 1: if they're running something where yeah, like twenty one person
Speaker 1: and I don't want no piece of that seven point
Speaker 1: win for the Cowboys. Four seventeen always win. The Cowboys
Speaker 1: try to get get rid of this bad taste. Tyrans
Speaker 1: Smith comes back here and allows the offense to do
Speaker 1: do the things that they want to do. I think
Speaker 1: the offensive line rebounds from this performance, especially against what
Speaker 1: they saw against Kansas City Chiefs. I just think the
Speaker 1: Raiders have so many issues going on right now that
Speaker 1: I just I think it's going to be hard for
Speaker 1: them to win. UM. Shout out to our guy Rich
Speaker 1: besides you, who who we think is a phenomenal human
Speaker 1: being as well as being an excellent NFL coach. He's
Speaker 1: just been put in a horrible situation, man, horrible situation.
Speaker 1: But I just think that the Cowboys will respond. They've
Speaker 1: always responded pretty well. Here. This is something that I
Speaker 1: got from Rick Goslin which I found pretty interesting about
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, and he writes, Dak Prescott has played eighty
Speaker 1: one NFL career games. He has not committed a turnover
Speaker 1: in thirty six of his starts, and the Cowboys have
Speaker 1: won twenty nine of them. Prescott has committed at least
Speaker 1: one turnover in another four five starts, and the Cowboys
Speaker 1: have a twenty one and twenty four record in him.
Speaker 1: Prescott just suffered his fourth three turnover a game of
Speaker 1: his career and last Weekend's lost to the Chiefs. So
Speaker 1: pretty easy, Yeah, don't turn a ball over. Turn the
Speaker 1: ball over. We in trouble since you said that. I
Speaker 1: think I saw stat that said we're like fourteen and
Speaker 1: fifteen when timers Smith doesn't play. I mean it's pretty
Speaker 1: on point with Dak Prescott and the turnover still the
Speaker 1: most important. How this team looks. You need a guy
Speaker 1: in the game bro twenty nine, game fifteen you lost,
Speaker 1: he didn't playing, and and look, I um, I go
Speaker 1: back into this, and to me, I think it's really
Speaker 1: really simple. You got an all decade left tackle. What
Speaker 1: quarterback is not going to have some some security When
Speaker 1: you've got, you know, an outstanding player like that out there,
Speaker 1: I think any to any anybody is going to be affected.
Speaker 1: And at times I think we can forget because you've
Speaker 1: seen hire and play so well for so long, just
Speaker 1: how good this guy is. And Terrence still is a
Speaker 1: guy who start for basically any other NFL team, Same
Speaker 1: thing with Lell Collins, but they're not that guy. That
Speaker 1: guy is that good. And because he can handle his matchups,
Speaker 1: it allows you to do other things. Yeah, bas Moore,
Speaker 1: time for the receivers to get open, time for Dad
Speaker 1: to do what he gotta do. But let me ask
Speaker 1: you a quick question. If my government, let's say he
Speaker 1: struggles again in this game, do we think about putting
Speaker 1: in the Collins at that left guard spot or we
Speaker 1: just got to ride with him? Now, this doesn't look
Speaker 1: like they're open to put my man in there at
Speaker 1: the guard position. Like so, I'm not sure because you
Speaker 1: can't go back to Connor Williams or you can't go back.
Speaker 1: You can't go back. One could be where you can.
Speaker 1: You could play worse. Yeah, you got penalties and stuff,
Speaker 1: but you can you can get beat like a drum
Speaker 1: to be like, man, looky, there's nothing we can do
Speaker 1: because that's the quickest path to the quarterback right at
Speaker 1: the game, Like they got Travis Frederick there, who's also
Speaker 1: a little little shake on. It was like up in
Speaker 1: the top of for the rankings of a fan voting
Speaker 1: a little Pro Bowl, how Zach Martin Black Prescott, Ezekiel
Speaker 1: Elliott And be honest, that's easy. When the Cubs are winning,
Speaker 1: a lot of people in baseball for the All Star
Speaker 1: Game vote clubs. Are they vote Yankees? Until here the
Speaker 1: Cowboys are winning, you should never be surprised that Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboys players are going to be voted there. I mean,
Speaker 1: Travis Frederick had you know people were voting families, it's
Speaker 1: it's it's your favorite, it's it's the most popular team
Speaker 1: in the country. They're winning. You got a ballot and
Speaker 1: you just start checking up. You see us, you're having
Speaker 1: a lot of Pro bowlers. And let's be honest. Okay,
Speaker 1: how many fans know who centers are? Not a lot?
Speaker 1: You know? I even mean right now in the division?
Speaker 1: Can you name another center in the division? Kelsey? But
Speaker 1: that's just because his face is all over you and
Speaker 1: because of his brother right right, So him, that's it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: who's the center for the Giants? I have no idea
Speaker 1: it's a Marray Cooper or CD Lamb going to the
Speaker 1: Provo this season? No? Maybe CD? Maybe CD mayby CD,
Speaker 1: But I think no, I don't think Marian. He's putting
Speaker 1: up decent numbers, but I don't know. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: just so many other receivers out there that are balling
Speaker 1: right now. Is he going to the Provo this year? Nah?
Speaker 1: Not splitting carriers like that, I don't believe. So if
Speaker 1: he don't go to the pro BO, I'm not blaming
Speaker 1: it on him. Kill him, block him up. I listen.
Speaker 1: I love it, but I'm so tired of the highlight
Speaker 1: of Zeke's game being Oh, man, you see that block
Speaker 1: that he picked up? Gave that some time, Like, Bro,
Speaker 1: that's not what he's here for. Yeah, you got a
Speaker 1: new pass pro, but that ain't it that ain't he
Speaker 1: competing with Dalvin Cook, Aaron Jone. We're trying to get
Speaker 1: him to be the best running back and Lisa in
Speaker 1: the NFC. He's a high paid lambing on our team. Goodness,
Speaker 1: let help five man show you playing some love blocking
Speaker 1: old dog day they're splitting carries. No, he he's a
Speaker 1: heck of a blocker, but we should not be showcasing
Speaker 1: his skills for blocking nine. But we are. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: that's where the head coach has to get in and
Speaker 1: have a conversation with the with the coordinator. So just
Speaker 1: just off the top of my head, just looking at
Speaker 1: we talked about Pro Bowl here. Cooper Cup for sure.
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup for sure. I mean one thousand, one hundred
Speaker 1: forty one yards right now. Deebo Samuel has had a
Speaker 1: really good year. Stefan Diggs, you've got you got Devanta
Speaker 1: Adams has to be out there, Um quiets kept justin Jefferson,
Speaker 1: ain't the quiet about what he's doing to break the
Speaker 1: road level right now as someone who who's has is
Speaker 1: a fantasy manager and had justin Jeff and seen. Okay,
Speaker 1: I mean this games like the Dallas game, Kirk, what
Speaker 1: you're doing, Um, the quietest kept is the feeling on
Speaker 1: that squad because my man just continues to rack up
Speaker 1: touchdown done that rans On. I'm telling you every year,
Speaker 1: every year. You already know Adam Celand is going to
Speaker 1: catch a lot of touchdowns every down. So it's gonna
Speaker 1: be just just looking at something. It's gonna be tough
Speaker 1: for a Cowboys player to get there. Mike Evans has
Speaker 1: ten touchdowns. Yeah, it's gonna be hard. I mean Evans
Speaker 1: got ten, I mean Feeling has eight. DK DK Metcalf
Speaker 1: has eight touchdowns. D Hop who's only played in eight games,
Speaker 1: has seven touchdowns. It's as So to answer your question, yeah, defensively,
Speaker 1: I think only probably Parsons and digs. So maybe when
Speaker 1: you start talking about alternates, man anybody somebody or something
Speaker 1: like that. But you know, right now, if you're if
Speaker 1: you're getting three got you right down three names right now,
Speaker 1: there's not a cow Wait player that you put in
Speaker 1: that list. And receiver wise, now, yeah, it's too tough
Speaker 1: right now when you're just kind of looking at what
Speaker 1: you're seeing right here. We know Zack Martin to be there,
Speaker 1: Zaly Smith. Smith would be that he can stay healthy.
Speaker 1: But he's not healthy. It's just a thing. But as
Speaker 1: long as he's healthy, he plays with Dach will be
Speaker 1: in there, Parsons, Dicks, maybe Randy Gregory if he comes
Speaker 1: back balling that keep dropping these games. Yeah, you say
Speaker 1: what you want about it. Listen, it's it's some quarterbacks
Speaker 1: in the NFC that make it hard for you to
Speaker 1: get Tom Brady is usually a shooting Stafford. Staffords had
Speaker 1: some booboo, I mean along the way right now. All
Speaker 1: of them have had some games. We just say, but
Speaker 1: I still go back into this for Dak Prescott. You
Speaker 1: play enough games and National TV and you win some
Speaker 1: you win those games, that's going to be a swing
Speaker 1: from let them ball out of the things giving people
Speaker 1: gonna forget all about it. There's that Tom Brady and
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers are gonna be sitting there all the time,
Speaker 1: take taking votes away from my man. Dang all right,
Speaker 1: So I just want him to get back on trek
Speaker 1: and consistently be that guy. Because we know, we know
Speaker 1: he's that guy. We just I don't like to see
Speaker 1: those games. And look at this point in time, where
Speaker 1: as we're looking at these players, someone's one of them
Speaker 1: is going to be in there. You know. We look
Speaker 1: at the top six guys, right, no one's gonna be
Speaker 1: in a super Bowl. So that's going to lead to
Speaker 1: a spot being open being open there. But yeah, we'll see.
Speaker 1: Let's see Aaron Rodgers talked about having the whole foot issue.
Speaker 1: Let's see where he goes. They just got beat by
Speaker 1: Minnesota here. There's there's a lot of football to be
Speaker 1: left here. All right, we gotta get out of here.
