Speaker 1: John Machoda of the athletic Rob Phillips Dallas Cowboys dot

00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: view us as friends. You know, we we we just do.

13
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: You are things, just trying to earn checks and this

14
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: day and age, just trying not to get fired. That's all.

15
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: I'm trying to hold on, man, trying to hold on

16
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: as long as I can. Here, let's go into the

17
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 1: man who provided us some content today in the locker room.

18
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: All of us were in the locker room today, Tank Lawrence. Wow. Nice,

19
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: all right, Michela, you are the tweet machine. I haven't

20
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: read your tweets yet, but you are the tweet machine.

21
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: Would you go with Man, this is the best time

22
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: to be covering the Cowboys as far as I mean,

23
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: aside from I would love to cover them during a

24
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: deep playoff run and they go to the super Bowl

25
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: and all that, but I've never done that before, so

26
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:33,960
Speaker 1: this is the only thing I can compare to. And

27
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: just when the team's playing well, go in the locker room.

28
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 1: There's a little bit of dramas Dak cracks and what's

29
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,039
Speaker 1: he doing? Then you get some good quotes here or there. Man,

30
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,479
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. That might not excite other people,

31
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: but that excites me. But yeah, No, Tank was on

32
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: one today. Man. He at first always it's always when

33
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: you don't want to talk, and then eventually you end

34
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,919
Speaker 1: up talking. And Man, by the fourth maybe fifth question,

35
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: he was asked about Jalen Hurts, and Man, he had

36
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: had it. He was he was already because he was

37
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: getting all these questions about like if he had gotten

38
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: better and things like that, and that that answer, he said,

39
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: how about this, That's the last question I'm gonna hear

40
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 1: about Hurts for real though, because I really don't care

41
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: like you don't. But I'm sure Jalen Hurts is going

42
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: to enjoy hearing that Tank is kind of I used

43
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: Tank as kind of the barometer for the team's mindset

44
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 1: on a week like this, and it kind of it's

45
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: starting to remind me if y'all remember twenty eighteen when

46
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: New Orleans was coming in here with that explosive Drew

47
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: Brees offense and nobody gave them a chance to win

48
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: that football game and take like went off in the

49
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 1: locker room and I don't remember all the quotes. I

50
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 1: was gonna look it up. It's kind of that mindset

51
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: of nobody's buying what look at what we're doing? And

52
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: I think, John, what do I came in late? What

53
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: do you say to some effect like they've they gotta

54
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 1: play us too? That you're talking about them? Are you

55
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: talking about I'm kind of getting that that Saints game

56
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: they went out and shut down Drew Brees and the Saints,

57
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that's necessarily going to happen, but

58
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: they've heard enough about Jay it hurts apparently already. Yeah,

59
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: he was basically saying, you know, you're asking me questions

60
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: like you know, we should be fearing them or they

61
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: have to play us too. I loved it when he

62
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: was like, you know, Weedham Boys, don't forget about it.

63
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: It's almost like this still there's this outside perspective that

64
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: you know, they still haven't proven themselves, and so I

65
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: think the defense is walking around with the chip on

66
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: their shoulder. And to me, DeMarcus Lawrence is the best

67
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: TV bite that there is, especially right now, because they're

68
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 1: rolling and that's fine, but we're also not just making

69
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 1: this up for a cool storyline. I mean, if you're

70
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: going to Vegas right now and you're putting money on

71
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: MVP of the league, not many guys you're gonna have

72
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: over Jalen Hurts. So it's like these are obvious questions

73
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: that we're asking him. I mean, Jalen Hurts has played

74
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: really well. This isn't Week one, and we're just like, hey,

75
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: you know, Hurts the big part of their team. Is

76
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: it going to be different this year? And then you're

77
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: following up at four or five followups like he's been balling,

78
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: So you're gonna you're you're the pass rusher that's gonna

79
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: cause him problems. We're gonna ask you questions about him, well,

80
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: it takes. He's always respectful of the other team, but

81
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: he doesn't like talking about how great the other quarterback.

82
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: And he never he never is every time. He's just like,

83
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: let's let's get the Sunday. He will never give you

84
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: the Tom Brady. Tom Brady rolls out all the platy

85
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: two's about yeah, about every other team, and he goes

86
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: into that that that Dean Smith mode of oh my gosh,

87
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: is like the best team you've ever seen, and and

88
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: he's not gonna do that. And he doesn't want to

89
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: do that because that's where we're talking about Jayla Hurts

90
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: and the way Hurts is playing and he's say, okay,

91
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: he hadn't played us yet, and so it's good. I

92
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: already you know, I already know what I'll be going

93
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: with tonight, you know, Channel four two, Channel Yeah, I mean,

94
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: thirty minutes the Eagles. We're not quite back at thirty,

95
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 1: but you know we're around twenty. But yeah, I mean,

96
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: the Eagles deserve all the credit that are coming their way.

97
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: I just think that de Law feels like, hey, we

98
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 1: got a pretty good defense too, and we've shown that

99
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 1: now through five games. Now, granted, I do think this

100
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: will be the toughest task that they've faced, and we're

101
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 1: going to find out just how good this defense has

102
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: comes Sunday night. One other thing was just that was

103
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: gonna add about him being hurt and he had He's like, yeah,

104
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: I'm hurt right now. He's the only chest issue. But

105
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: like he basically said, if it's not something that you know,

106
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need surgery for, then I'm just going to

107
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: kind of play through it. So and this isn't something

108
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: that he expects that to be, So he's just going

109
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: to stick it out. And as he said, he's a

110
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: soldier and he's going to ride into the sunset. Rus

111
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: has got everybody, man. Everybody's ride, man. It's about righting yep.

112
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: So Tank Lawrence is dealing with an injury. You've got

113
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,359
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons, the NFC defensive Player of the Week, dealing

114
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: with an injury. I think that's big. So Michael, we

115
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: just got the injury report. Michael was upgraded delimited if

116
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 1: not practicing yesterday, and then the biggest story out of

117
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 1: today will be that Dak was upgraded delimited. So that's

118
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: the first time since the thumb injury and he was

119
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 1: kind of coy about what kind of throwing he did today.

120
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: We saw him after practice again, but it sounds like

121
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: he did some throwing during practice. So that's obviously a

122
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: step in the right direction, and that's going to bring

123
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 1: out storylines of Oh, but could he play on Sunday.

124
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: I still don't think he will, but you know, it's

125
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: trending in that direction where it's going to least leave

126
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,799
Speaker 1: some people wondering. Yeah, I think it's It's a totally

127
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: different injury. Michael Gallup was coming off a much more

128
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 1: serious injury. But this is what the Cowboys do. They

129
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: ramp guys up coming off injuries. And Gallop did some

130
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: individual stuff for a couple of weeks. He worked in

131
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 1: the team and if we take Mike McCarthy at his word,

132
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks back, he said he wants Dak

133
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 1: to have a full week of practice before he plays. Now,

134
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: if you want to define full week for Mike McCarthy,

135
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: you can, But I would say to John's point, I

136
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: think signs point to Cooper rush for another week. But

137
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 1: it's looking good and everything you hear about Dak is

138
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: that there is velocity and pop coming off that hand.

139
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: So it's good. I mean, and honestly, why would you

140
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: bring them back right now? And I mean they are

141
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: four and one. Excuse me, but you know this offense still,

142
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: I think it's just so funny when you hear people

143
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: on Twitter and social media saying they want Cooper over

144
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: Dak and the way they're playing. I mean, you want

145
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: Dak as your starting quarterback. It's great that Cooper's played

146
00:06:58,480 --> 00:06:59,919
Speaker 1: the way he's going to play, but this team is

147
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: going to have to score points more points to win

148
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: football games as the season goes on. So let's just

149
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: throw this out here. I haven't heard this before, so

150
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: the first time, I just throw it out. So he's limited,

151
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: did a little bit. McCarthy's been like, I need to

152
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: see more, say, does limited to more practices? Do you

153
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 1: see him being the backup in Philadelphia? I absolutely do not.

154
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: And Thursday is a huge day. That's when they do

155
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: their padded work. And so with him still being limited,

156
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: that still tells me it's probably another week away and

157
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to bring him out there as the backup.

158
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: And then Cooper Rush, you know, takes a shot to

159
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: the hat or something or gets knocked out on the

160
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: first series, and then now you're going to deck the

161
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: rest of the game, Like, I don't know, it just

162
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: doesn't make a ton of sense right now for him

163
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: to be the backup. I think it'll still end up

164
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: being Will Greer unless they were going to keep three

165
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: quarterbacks active, and that absolutely makes no sense to me.

166
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: They could do that. That's the only way I could

167
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: see it. If I had a guess right now, I

168
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: would say no. Now they've done this before. Two thousand

169
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,679
Speaker 1: and eight. You remember that they went to Saint Louis

170
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: and they played the Rams, dude, and they were the worst,

171
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: the worst team in the league, and they lost, and

172
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: Brad Johnson started, but Romo had a fractured pinkie right

173
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: missed three games. He warmed up pre game and I

174
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: think he was active. And it was a weird scene

175
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: because you thought from the press box like maybe Tony's

176
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: gonna play in this game, and he didn't um and

177
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: they really struggled and they lost the game. But I

178
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: don't think they would do it. I think they're still

179
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: like Mike, still gamesmanship, little gamesmanship, and that's what I think.

180
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: I think that's what people think is happening here. But

181
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: but also I think people genuinely like drama, and so

182
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: people want that to happen because it's Eagles week and

183
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 1: it's kind of okay, So Mike, what are you hiding here?

184
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: I don't think he's hiding anything. I think he's he's

185
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: still in the rehab phase. I think there's still at

186
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: a point where, hey, how do you respond Friday after

187
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: a little more work, like John just said, and they're

188
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 1: still testing out how he's how he's responded to this thing. Also,

189
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: what kind of message does that send? Though? Do you

190
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: guys think if they were to do that if he

191
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: was active? Yeah, yeah, it would be a weird book, right,

192
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: weird dynamic to me, you know, from the outside looking

193
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: in on that, I agree, I think. I just think

194
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush said it a few minutes ago, like he

195
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 1: wants to We'll know he wants to play, and when

196
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: he's ready, he will play. So when he's ready, he's

197
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: the starter. Keep going. What else did Cooper Rush say today?

198
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: That the bag thing I got? You go with your

199
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 1: top five and then I'll go with the next five

200
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 1: most important things that um they need to score more points?

201
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: Is that? Was that one of the questions? I think

202
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 1: I think there was something along the lines of that, Yeah, yeah,

203
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: it's a Sam's point, and like, um, I don't know

204
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: if he's specifically asked that. Zeke mentioned that too. And

205
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: this is I don't know if every week the defense

206
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: can do what they're doing, if there is a week

207
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: And maybe that's why Tank is ticked off, is that

208
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: maybe people are thinking, at some point, all right, they're

209
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 1: not gonna give They're gonna give up twenty plus points.

210
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: You know, well, you talk about some of the like

211
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: d Law and Mica coming off, you know, both of

212
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: nurse injuries. I mean, you talk about this defense being

213
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: you know, fresh, but how long is it realistic to

214
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: think that they can stay sustain that without other guys

215
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: getting banged up? And you know, you hope it's not

216
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 1: an injury where it keeps one of those guys out

217
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: of a game. And the thing is, you also wonder

218
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 1: how long can they go without turning the ball over

219
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: and playing as well as they have on offense in

220
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: terms of not giving their defense short fields they have

221
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: to defend. And then so what happens if they do

222
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: have some short fields have to defend. Our things going

223
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: to start, you know, going in the wrong direction. I

224
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 1: don't think they will because and I go back to

225
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 1: that last game when Cooper Cup goes for seventy five yards.

226
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: If the dam was going to open, it would have

227
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 1: been then. And they literally did not score again after that.

228
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: That was stunning to me, that is, but that will

229
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 1: be one of the most surprising moments for me this season.

230
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: I don't care what happens the rest of the way,

231
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 1: I will go back to that play and I just

232
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: I thought for sure the Rams. I didn't think that

233
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: they would win, but I thought for sure that they

234
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: would score at least a field goal another touchdown at

235
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,719
Speaker 1: some point because that play was just so big when

236
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: it happened, and the defense it wasn't even like they

237
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: were phased by it. Internover margin, Cowboys are tied in

238
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 1: the league in that department at plus five. The Eagles

239
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: are number one in that department plus nine. So this

240
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: is definitely a kind of football game. You can't go

241
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: on the road and turn it over. I want to

242
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: just throw this out here. We talked about in the

243
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: last podcast, Players Lounge. This may be the first offensive

244
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: line that they're going to play wherever. They're pretty much

245
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: intact with the guys they want Tampa Bay was compromised

246
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: in Week one. Cincinnati they had offensive line issues that

247
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,680
Speaker 1: continue a week two. The Giants they had in week three.

248
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 1: Then you got the Commanders. That's a mess. And then

249
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: last week you got the Rams. You're center and your

250
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 1: two guards. You know, these were backups. This is really

251
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: one of the It's gonna be an interesting test to

252
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: me when I think about their offensive line Philadelphia being

253
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 1: able to be a strength of the team, because if

254
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: you look at the team right now, in terms of

255
00:11:51,720 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 1: rushing offense, you got twenty ninth. Huh, I thought they

256
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 1: were better than that. Total offense they are, Eagles are

257
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: twenty seventh, But rushing offense, they are twenty ninth. Running

258
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: the ball, there's no way, no, no, no, no, Yeah,

259
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:16,319
Speaker 1: they are seventh. Is that rushing defense? Rushing defense there?

260
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: Rushing defense is offensive rushes. You know what rushing offense?

261
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: Cowboys fifteenth right now, one hundred and fifteen a game,

262
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: and it says Eagles seventy two tenth and rush defense.

263
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: So that's yeah, total offense, total offense. They got the

264
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,959
Speaker 1: Eagles twenty seventh over all, the Cowboys twenty seventh overall.

265
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: So check it. When you say when you say the

266
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 1: offensive line though for the Eagles, the other thing I

267
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: think about is this Cowboys defensive line runs a lot

268
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: of games. That's how they've been getting home. They run

269
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,199
Speaker 1: a lot of different movement things up front to kind

270
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: of throw you off. Those are those are a lot

271
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: more effective against pocket passers than they are against running quarterbacks,

272
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 1: because running quarbacks, when you're running those games, can sometimes

273
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,439
Speaker 1: find little spots where you are weak at that point,

274
00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: and that's what this quarterback will want to do, which

275
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: lends it self too. I know we're talking here to

276
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: day about someone's gonna have to spy I mean, Donovan Wilson, Jaronkers,

277
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: somebody has gonna have to spy Jalen Hurts. And so

278
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: I know Tank doesn't think it's a big deal, but

279
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,679
Speaker 1: I think, I mean, I think we all think that

280
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 1: how they handle Jalen Berry's wall huge deal. How do

281
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 1: you keep him in the pocket? And I don't know

282
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 1: if it would be Mica, depending on how Mike is

283
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 1: feeling physically this week, because Dan Quinn told us, you know,

284
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: second half he was more of an edge rusher because

285
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 1: he's not having to move around as much, go sideline

286
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: to sideline, so one thing to note of with the

287
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 1: Eagles offensive line, though they are banged up. Four of

288
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: their five starters are on the injury report for an injury.

289
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: Lane Johnson did not practice today is a rest day,

290
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: I believe, But other than that, all other four guys

291
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: are kind of banged up. So they've got their line

292
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: intact and it is the best line they will face

293
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 1: this year so far. But that's been kind of a theme,

294
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: like the Cowboys have caught some offensive lines that have

295
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 1: been banged up. It take it when you can get it.

296
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: And when I look at this defense, I still think

297
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,719
Speaker 1: it's incredible that they've only given up a touchdown a game.

298
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: And I think that that's going to end this Sunday.

299
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: I think they're I think that's deep. I just I

300
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: just do I think I think that they're going to

301
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: be battle tested. I just think the Eagles offense, I

302
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 1: think Jalen Hurts and the fact that he's dynamic and

303
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 1: he's a dual threat, and I think they're going to

304
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 1: feel the pressure on the road in a really hostile environment.

305
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,199
Speaker 1: And I'm not I still I picked the Cowboys to

306
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: win twenty four twenty one, But I do think they're

307
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: going to give up more than a touchdown? No, I agree, Yes, sir,

308
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: I completely I completely agree. Not gonna let me forget it.

309
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: Apparently he's writing that down. Okay, ivery I completely agree

310
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: with you on that. I do think they'll give up

311
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: more than one touchdown. And with that being said, if

312
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: they don't, then man, we're gonna get real wild on

313
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: these podcasts because who is then because the Lions doing that?

314
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: Are the Bears doing it? Like, So, while I say that,

315
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: then I think that they'll give up more than one touchdown.

316
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: It's because this is just I think, a very talented

317
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: offense and there's not a lot of offenses that I

318
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: compare to this. So you're not playing the Bills this year,

319
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: not playing the Chiefs. You know, there's just not a

320
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: lot of offenses where you're like, oh, well, yeah, it's

321
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: just gonna be the start of just a downfall. Like

322
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: they can give up two touchdowns here and go right

323
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: back to what they're doing before. But I'm telling you,

324
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: if they don't in this game, and they win this game,

325
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: let's say like they beat the Rams, oh my lord,

326
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: that I mean, I just can't even imagine what it

327
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: would be like. Then what's the story. Say they come

328
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: out of Philly with the win on Sunday night, what

329
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: is the major storyline with this Cowboys team championship contender? Well, well,

330
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: I can tell you this. I can tell you this. Yeah,

331
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: I think so. That will say one hundred percent. That

332
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: will be They absolutely will be talking about them being

333
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 1: championship contender one two. The other key part though, is

334
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: how well does Cooper Rush play? Right? Does Cooper Rush

335
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: play against it like he did against the Rams? If so,

336
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: it'll be like right, if if he plays like he

337
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 1: did danced the Rams, it'll be all about man Dak

338
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: was limited. He's gonna be coming back. They're gonna play

339
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: the Lions and the Bears everything. If he does play

340
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: really well, though, that will increase those people that are

341
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: talking about maybe we need to stick with them for

342
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: another week, maybe just another week that that that fan

343
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: base will grow. I mean it really will though, you

344
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: know it will. I go back to what what what

345
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: Doctor me Haf always told me The finance class depends.

346
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: It depends. Yeah, no, you bring up that question. It depends.

347
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: Do you win and Cooper completes ten passes and the

348
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 1: defense gets to pick six sword, they running back and

349
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: I mean, it depends on how this thing goes. Is it?

350
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: You know? Is it some flags and get thrown and

351
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of luck. They go to how

352
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: does this thing happen? But I'm also one of those

353
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: I don't watch first take, I don't watch Skip show.

354
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't watch. I don't want David Hellman, No, no,

355
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: I'll see clips on Twitter, all right, no, when you

356
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: tweeting the clip clip, But no, I don't. I don't watch.

357
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: Then again, how many people really are watching any of

358
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: those shows from beginning to end? I think seeing clips

359
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: as how most people are consuming that. But it's just

360
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: the whole premise of I know where they go. They

361
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: go to the extreme because they're not here. And when

362
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 1: I get these people call me like, hey, you know what,

363
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 1: you think I gotta do something Philadelphia later on today.

364
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: But let's be you're saying that, like if they win

365
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: in Philly, that you're not going to think that they're

366
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: not a legit championship contender five and one without Dak

367
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 1: knocking off this the only undefeated team and then winning

368
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 1: in Philly Sunday Night football, who was better than them?

369
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 1: I've done something that you you and you have not

370
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: done here actually covered a team that won a Super

371
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: Bowl around here. Okay, I've seen it happen. So what

372
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: is I'll tell you what. The locker room. You've never

373
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: seen a better locker room. Yeah, gosh, I mean everyone

374
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 1: could talk which one, which team it was? It was,

375
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: it was the last one Jimmy had. Okay, let me

376
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: just speak on that real quick. Okay. I understand that

377
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: you were there and we weren't therever that we're also

378
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 1: in a way different time in the NFL a lot

379
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,400
Speaker 1: more parody. Like those teams are juggernauts, and you can

380
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: just go into like, hey, this is the way the

381
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 1: way that those teams felt, you can't even feel that

382
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: way today in the NFL. Nobody feels like that anymore. Literally,

383
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: two years ago, I thought the Chiefs were on that trajectory,

384
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden they don't have key players.

385
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: You just got to keep rolling. It's a league of

386
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: parody across the board. And so when I say that

387
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,400
Speaker 1: they're a championship contender, I don't mean that they're gonna

388
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: be like nineties cowboys, like everybody buckle up, because we're

389
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 1: just gonna be riding for the next five years, but

390
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 1: for this year, based on what's going on. Yeah, who

391
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: else is in the league? Are you just like, well,

392
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: they're not as good as that team. I'm not. I'm

393
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: not ready to start crowning anyone. Well no, I mean

394
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,360
Speaker 1: they're a contender. But they beat the Eagles. They're a contender.

395
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 1: This is why because sorry, let's take okay, let's take

396
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 1: a break. We'll come back. We'll come back. Hold it,

397
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: hold it in. Everybody's ready to be be good. And that's good.

398
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: I like that. This is the media match with Sam

399
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,199
Speaker 1: Gannon The Fox or Rob Phillips Dawascowboys dot Com and

400
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: John Mashona of The Athletic. I mean, with scrugs, this

401
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 1: is medi mash on Dawascowboys dot Com Radio. Todd thought

402
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 1: it would be secure to jog in the Cheetah Savannah.

403
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought online was reliable.

404
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 1: And Todd is trying to be faster than this cheetah

405
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: that can run eighty miles per hour. But the good

406
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 1: news is Todd has at and T five g. It

407
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: is fast, reliable, and secure, and he learned the best

408
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: thing to do is stop running and heard the backpack

409
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: with the beef stew at and T five G fast, reliable, secure,

410
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,840

443
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: This is funny for me. I like doing this stuff. Yes, yes, okay,

444
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: let's let's pick up where we left off here. Rob

445
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,199
Speaker 1: Phillips rare and to go. I had to get the

446
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,959
Speaker 1: break in here so so proceeds with the if they

447
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 1: beat Philadelphia, they are a contender for a championship. Talk.

448
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 1: I'm going to defer to Sam because I interrupted Sam, No,

449
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: go ahead, No, I was going to say. You know,

450
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 1: Troy Aikman had some comments John, I know you listened

451
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,199
Speaker 1: to them too, just about the whole quarterback controversy thing,

452
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: the potential of it, because obviously this all got started

453
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: when Jerry made those comments. Obviously he meant that you

454
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 1: want that situation to happen because that means your team

455
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: is winning. But when you look at this organization, I

456
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 1: don't think there's any question on who the future quarterback

457
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: is of this franchise, is right, I mean Stack, Yeah,

458
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,400
Speaker 1: I agree. I just I found it interesting that Troy

459
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,120
Speaker 1: said that, to be honest with you, but then he said,

460
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: it becomes interesting. Those questions become interesting and like you said,

461
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: depending on if they were to win, how are they winning?

462
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: You know what I mean in that whole conversation. Yeah,

463
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 1: I just I just think the difference is number one

464
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 1: is smaller sample size than in twenty sixteen when Dak

465
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 1: got rolling and they were like eleven and one that

466
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 1: on top of it, with Dak was making a ton

467
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: of plays too. He was He was not a bus driver.

468
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: Not that Cooper Rush hasn't just been a bus driver either,

469
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: But I think Dak was more of a productive quarterback

470
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: than even rushing the stretch. And I'm not taking anything

471
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 1: away from Cooper. He's gonna hell of the job. But yeah,

472
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 1: I don't think there's anything to it. I really don't.

473
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: But on the subject of contenders, if they win this game,

474
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: absolutely that's gonna be the talk. And it's because this game.

475
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 1: If the Cowboys win this game, I don't think anybody

476
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,880
Speaker 1: expects it to be a thirty five thirty type of game.

477
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,120
Speaker 1: It's gonna be another defensive struggle. And if they do that,

478
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: it's like John said, if they win that game with

479
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: the defensive struggle against this Philly offense, which is terrific,

480
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 1: who is stopping them defense? Who is stopping this defense?

481
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,120
Speaker 1: And then you're getting Dak back eventually too, the absolutely

482
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: should be considered contenders. Yeah or not, whether it's too

483
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: early or not, that's gonna be the story. No, I

484
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: was thinking during the break, I was gonna ask you,

485
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 1: so I think that you know you still look towards

486
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: for me because of Mahomes I so Putin's always put

487
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,199
Speaker 1: Cane City up there as long as Mom's healthy. And

488
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 1: I look at the bills, but I look at that NFC.

489
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: If you tell me the Cowboys go and win Sunday

490
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: Night in Philly, why don't you go ahead and tell

491
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 1: me who you think is better than the NFC. I

492
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: can't wait. I've to quote quote the great George W.

493
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 1: Bush fool me once, shame on you fool me. I

494
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: can't be fooled again. You know that you said that

495
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: song too, by the way, you said it a little

496
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 1: bit quicker than he said it. And I've just I

497
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 1: can't get fooled again. Yes, I understand. Oh, I mean

498
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: they went two and old Dak. You know it was

499
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,959
Speaker 1: a two or three years ago. Bool me. I know

500
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 1: where it goes. And I've seen the ending of this

501
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: movie too many times, especially having seen the end of

502
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 1: the movie when it was the happy ending and they

503
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 1: won and they were champions, then let down too many times.

504
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: So louis in your mind because obviously you guys have

505
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: covered the team way longer than me. But at what point,

506
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: as long as they keep going, what point does that

507
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: become a discussion and a storyline in your mind. Let's

508
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 1: talk in November. Let's talk in November. Preferably you've seen

509
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 1: that too, because shouldn't be to back up what you're saying,

510
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: then you shouldn't be able to say it until they

511
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: win multiple playoff games. Yeah, oh, you can't say November

512
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,719
Speaker 1: because you've seen November before. You're right, I've seen I've

513
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 1: seen eleven game winning streeps. I've seen all that. You

514
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 1: want to talk about nineties, then you must need to

515
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 1: see multiple playoff wins when it comes to people who

516
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 1: were going to call me and talk about Super Bowl,

517
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: because I'm just like, stop, I call them about to

518
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 1: stop it. You come off before I didn't even go further. Yeah,

519
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 1: Rodney Harrison was we were driving yesterday, So nui if

520
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:36,119
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush wins is I said, stop it? No, you

521
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 1: didn't let me finish. I don't need to know. There's

522
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: your Cooper rush is going back to the bench as

523
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 1: soon as Dak is ready to go. Stop this, Rodney,

524
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: You of all people, sit no better. You're not them

525
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: out there, Rodney. Don't let them turn you into them.

526
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: You're playing this game. No, no, no, no no, no,

527
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 1: um am I jaded? Yeah, I mean yeah, I'm jaded

528
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: that I don't sit around here and believe the contender

529
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: talk because the contender talking year goes so next level.

530
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: And you're the biggest fan base in sports. Of course

531
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: it's going. And so so I don't going as far

532
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 1: to say they're I'm just saying that from what they've seen,

533
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 1: the sample size that we're going, oh if they if

534
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 1: they do, and so so you and I go through this.

535
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: So if they win, oh hey we need you in

536
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 1: the early shows online, Yeah, okay, we needs you four

537
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:25,119
Speaker 1: or five six need like you're like, oh, yeah, you're

538
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: the league, You're in the eight blankets. They they they're

539
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,919
Speaker 1: they won a game. I mean, you know they're not

540
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: crowning anybody. And we go way overboard man, and then

541
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 1: and and and you know this from from the phone

542
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: calls and create, Hey John, this is so so Portland.

543
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:42,880
Speaker 1: Can you do a hit with us on the coup?

544
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: I mean it's and I'm just saying, I will John

545
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 1: open for business, and and it just goes into overdrive,

546
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 1: and I just like a couple people, can we can

547
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: we it's October. Even if they win, it's October. There's

548
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff to go. You're talking about your

549
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: two best defenders players right now that are hurt and

550
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: and I'm sorry, I gotta I gotta see it happen.

551
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 1: You're you're not wrong about any of that, because there

552
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 1: I think there's a segment of the fans that, after

553
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 1: what happened against San Francisco last year, it's like John

554
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: just said, like show me in January. Yeah, show me

555
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 1: until I don't care about anything else until we get

556
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: to the first second round of the playoffs. But the

557
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: trains coming down the tracks. Okay, if they win this game,

558
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 1: that's all I'm saying, because then if they were to

559
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 1: win this game, every the storyline is gonna be you

560
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: got winnable games against Detroit and Chicago at home, both

561
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: at home. Right, Yeah, bye week this McCarthy back to

562
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:41,160
Speaker 1: Lambeau at seven and one. Potentially, that's that's the big

563
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 1: pictures storyline. Everybody's gonna be looking. So you tell me

564
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: I was wrong. I mean, yeah, I don't. I don't

565
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: know that you've seen a defense like this, I mean,

566
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 1: for you in this building or in this organization, in

567
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: this building. Yeah, they had a pretty good defense. Actually,

568
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 1: they super bow twenty seven at the number one defense

569
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: in the league. The youngest football team, and they came

570
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 1: back right next year, dealt with some injuries, but they're

571
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: they're really good. They're really good team. Yeah no, but

572
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 1: I'm talking since you're I'm talking about since the super

573
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 1: Bowl is like nothing, that's and that's a difference. And

574
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,439
Speaker 1: that reason I say that is because I'll give you

575
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 1: that's what can win on the road, you know, that's right,

576
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: Like I get annoyed about people talking about you lose

577
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 1: this game where you are in the NFC's. I don't

578
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: care about where you're in the NFC's because I don't

579
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 1: care about winning a NFC East. I don't care about

580
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: any of that because of exactly what you've said. I've

581
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 1: seen plenty of that. Just get into the dance. And

582
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,880
Speaker 1: I based on what happened last year too, Right, Okay,

583
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy won a Super Bowl in twenty ten. That

584
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: Packers team was a wild card. They won all those

585
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,479
Speaker 1: games on the road. Very injured team too, yet right,

586
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,439
Speaker 1: I think he would know how to navigate that. And

587
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 1: when you have a defense like this, that's the thing

588
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 1: that can win on the road. So go have to

589
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: win on the road. Maybe that's what breaks this curse

590
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 1: of twenty seven years, today's October thirteen, and look at

591
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: look well, look at where this show is detoured into

592
00:27:56,359 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 1: what will be they need to win, then maybe we

593
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 1: can go there, but we're already to what could be

594
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 1: in one game. I think it's part of it too.

595
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: It's they've also what they've done the last four weeks

596
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: is someone notable, isn't it. That's a pretty big story

597
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: if it's in Jacksonville, much less Dallas. All right, So

598
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 1: so four way games? All right, so let me write

599
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 1: you down. I got Sam Cowboys winning twenty four twenty.

600
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,959
Speaker 1: Cowboys aren't winning the games we're talking about, if I know.

601
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 1: But I'm like McCarthy twenty seven, Mike, Mike, okay, twenty seventeen,

602
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 1: Eagles twenty seven, twenty okay, twenty So two touchdowns? You

603
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 1: give two touchdown? Or is it going to be a defense?

604
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 1: No? No No, no, it'll be two touchdown. Okay, Okay, Okay,

605
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 1: you're wrong last week. By the way, I don't, I

606
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 1: don't know you. You have to wait because you've got yours, right, yeah, yours.

607
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: I can wait yet, I have a question, Well, what's yours,

608
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: mister Newey? I have not put in my final score yet, Well,

609
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: when will you are you gonna be tweeting it out?

610
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 1: It's gonna change between today and and tomorrow is Sunday

611
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: Morning News. I thought the Morning News requires Wednesday for

612
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 1: you news. Actually the Morning News required Tuesday. But we

613
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 1: have a pick in already. It hasn't. Were you right

614
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 1: last Monday? See we give our picks on our show

615
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: on Thursdays. It should it should be released. I think

616
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: we need. We're waiting on like either David or or

617
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: Gilkin to finishes, but it should be released later on today.

618
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 1: Where did you guys think? You know? When Dak went down,

619
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: we knew we was going to be out multiple weeks.

620
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: I never I never stopped believing I was right here

621
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: with I thought maybe they'd be five hundred. Yeah, five

622
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: hundred would be at that time. Maybe a best case scenario, right,

623
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 1: I mean, what did you guys think? Never had it down.

624
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: I thought they'd be right. I never thought they would

625
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 1: beat the Rams. I never thought they would beat Cincinnati.

626
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 1: I thought they had a pretty good chance against Washington

627
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: and New York. And obviously I'm picking against them this week,

628
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 1: so I guess, yeah, i'd have them having been Dak

629
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: coming back against maybe Detroit with them, I'm only having

630
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: two wins. Yeah, well yeah, I think on our show

631
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: we talked about it. If they could split these four

632
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: games and be at two and three and maybe Dad

633
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: comes back for this game that that was in week two,

634
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 1: that would have been a great scenario. Let's keep in

635
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: mind how he expected this. Yeah, let's just keep in

636
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 1: mind here, we're not going off of Well, the last

637
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 1: time I saw them was against the forty nine ers

638
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 1: in the playoffs in January. Now, I saw them opening

639
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: night with their starting quarterback. And so for anybody that

640
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: wants to sit out there right now, bay, I saw

641
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 1: this coming. I'm like, okay, cool, Well you didn't watch

642
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 1: the opener, so we know that. Okay, next question, like

643
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: that opener was bad. Let's get the break in here.

644
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 1: Break do we have to new? Hey, Chris Beam wants

645
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 1: he's bills paid, so so we've got to take a

646
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 1: break here. But we do have Sam picking the Cowboys

694
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 1: We are on at about ten forty. I'm actually off today. Okay,

695
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: look at you living the good life. Cowboys have won

696
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 1: eight straight eight switched. Yes, yeah, I think you slip.

697
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 1: I know Cowboys what eight straight games in the NFC.

698
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 1: So at some point in time it's it's it's gonna

699
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: be a challenge. It will be tough to get to nine.

700
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 1: And know the Cowboys are underdogs in this game. The

701
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 1: last time they played in Philadelphia Dallas fifty one Philadelphia

702
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 1: twenty six, they swept the Eagles. Last year, the goofy

703
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: head coach came out with the beat Dallas T shirt

704
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 1: on there. I'm not so hold on him as a

705
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 1: head coach. I still need to see some war. Though

706
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 1: his team is playing good, the GM has definitely given

707
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 1: him some talent here in this game. Let's talk about

708
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 1: third down. Third down offense for the Cowboys right now

709
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: is thirty point nine percent. That's twenty ninth in the league. Philadelphia,

710
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 1: on the other hand, they're converting at a rate of

711
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 1: forty three point eight percent, number six in the league.

712
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 1: You win games in the National Football League by getting

713
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: off the field. Cowboys have to improve and they've got

714
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 1: to be better, especially on the road Sunday night. In

715
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 1: that department, Rob Yeah, for sure, and they were. I

716
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,840
Speaker 1: think there were five of fifteen on third down against

717
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 1: m LA last week, and the week before that they

718
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,839
Speaker 1: had six negative runs against Washington, which affects you down

719
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,439
Speaker 1: in distance as well. It's it's just been a problem

720
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: upfront and this is I think this is the most

721
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: complete front seven that they will efface so far, this

722
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 1: this Philly defense. And they've got a mix of new

723
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,799
Speaker 1: guys Jordan Davis, who I think we all love coming

724
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 1: out of college. Fletcher Cox has been there forever. It's

725
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 1: just going to be a challenge. And I wonder, I

726
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 1: wonder if schematically they're gonna try to just load up

727
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: against the Cowboys run knowing what the Cowboys want to do,

728
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: and say Cooper Rush beat us on the outside, that

729
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: that's that's the chess match. I'm wondering about what I've doing. Yeah, yeah, no,

730
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 1: that's and that's what they will do. Ye make may

731
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 1: make Cooper Rush beat us through the air. They've been

732
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 1: they've been given up runs I think five yards a

733
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: pop they've been allowing Philly. Yes, I just yeah, I

734
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: think that they will sell out to just don't let

735
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard or Zekiel A wreck this game. Make Cooper

736
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 1: Rush have to throw for two hundred and fifty yards

737
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,479
Speaker 1: and multiple touchdowns. And if that happens, then you tip

738
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: your cap. But yeah, that's I envisioned them being forced

739
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 1: to stop the run, and then the other side that

740
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 1: they're going to just try and do everything they can

741
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: to run the ball at the Cowboys defense. I think that,

742
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I know it sounds like a basic strategy,

743
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 1: but it fits perfectly for the way that these two

744
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 1: teams are built. So, Sam, are you going up here Philly?

745
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 1: I am not going on this road trip. Will be

746
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 1: my colleague Jeff Cole in Philly. Yeah, yeah, And I

747
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: want to go to this one, man, I would have

748
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 1: loved I want to see I want to see the

749
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 1: Eagles fan base in person. I want to see the

750
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 1: crazy stuff that happens when the buses pull up. Yeah,

751
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: I want to hear the all of it. So I

752
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 1: enjoyed that part of it. But no, we brought up

753
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:12,439
Speaker 1: a good point yesterday. See, unlike you guys, we get

754
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 1: to just sit in the press box that's classed in.

755
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 1: You if you're gonna go have to go outside and

756
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 1: have to do like a live shot or something like that.

757
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 1: Those fans could get nasty if they know that you're

758
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 1: from Dallas. Oh I'm sure. So that's the part where

759
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 1: they like, I'm ready for it. You wanted to take

760
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:29,360
Speaker 1: it all in, you know, Yeah, and that might be fun.

761
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 1: But but but there's a there's a very fine line

762
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 1: between fun and then dangerous that oh yeah, no, no no, no,

763
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: we don't want to get into all that. No. I

764
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,600
Speaker 1: think when you get fined, when you get the youthful

765
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 1: lizzy and then some and then someone throws an egg

766
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: at you, you know because as pack in my hair. No. No,

767
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 1: So when you go there, like the Fox four shirt

768
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 1: you were wearing on the air yesterday, I know, like,

769
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: you don't wear that there, you you don't wear any

770
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 1: they'll look me up or something and they post first off,

771
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:58,759
Speaker 1: the liquored up and they know they know who's not

772
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 1: the local media. I remember he showed up and we

773
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: were just getting our stuff out. Hey, goods, were you from, man,

774
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: We're from Delaware. I mean, were just trying to lie

775
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,359
Speaker 1: like we're not. We're not from these parts because they

776
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,919
Speaker 1: are looking to harass and they're the local media because

777
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 1: we're in the parking lot where as close as they

778
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 1: can get to the place. So it's it's fun. Man,

779
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,399
Speaker 1: he shows up in a cowboy hat. I was gonna say,

780
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 1: what if Sam were like a Hurts jersey or something,

781
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: you know what. I was fun when you were at

782
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 1: you were asking Ceedee Lamb about crazy eagle stories, and

783
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,319
Speaker 1: you could tell he had one, but he wasn't going

784
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 1: down that road. They didn't want to give any ammunition.

785
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 1: I thought all of them were kind of playing a

786
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 1: little bit more cooi, maybe becase they didn't want anything

787
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 1: getting out there. No. They I mean, look, those guys,

788
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 1: those fans show up with a biography of you. They

789
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: they they know who mom is and you, they know

790
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 1: everything about you. Mean, they are ready to go and

791
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 1: get into you. But just from the local media standpoint,

792
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 1: we took the mic flags off, We wore nothing that

793
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: is smart. Just don't so if you when you do go,

794
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 1: make sure you you protect yourself because they're they're those

795
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,399
Speaker 1: kinds of people. They want to get after you as

796
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 1: a fan base. And I know a couple of people

797
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 1: from Philly that aren't. You know, they're diehard Eagle, but

798
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 1: they're not. You know what I think happens though, But

799
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: I agree with you, But I think what happens is

800
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 1: that when you get everybody together, you know, like the

801
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 1: people you're talking about, you probably can sit there and

802
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 1: watch a game with them, five or six Eagles when

803
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: everyone's together, and then it's a Sunday night, so we

804
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 1: have all day to kind of get all day. I

805
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 1: mean during the day on Saturday, you're gonna have a

806
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a playoff game, a baseball playoff game there,

807
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: Like I just I don't know. I think that's Adrea

808
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: wrapped up. And then when everybody gets together for a

809
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 1: Sunday night game and they there's nothing they hate more

810
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,879
Speaker 1: than the Cowboys. Oh, that's just not a great look.

811
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:46,359
Speaker 1: I'm glad Pat done, he's going back. Everybody just calling down.

812
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,799
Speaker 1: Let's all be friends. It's all pray for a good

813
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 1: fun game. They all pray with man, no I'm not

814
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: I'm I'm no. No, I've I've learned my lesson. True

815
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: nothing happened to me. But it's like what I watched.

816
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 1: I was like, man, this is no truthfully though, Like

817
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,760
Speaker 1: to Sam's point, like going to Philly, I think Philly's

818
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,319
Speaker 1: a nice like they're nice people there. It's just the

819
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 1: stadium environment is just a different level. It's another level.

820
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,919
Speaker 1: It just is I've been there. It's just the most

821
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 1: Is it the most wild atmosphere? Would you say in

822
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 1: the NFL? Because I haven't covered obviously all, Yeah, I

823
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: would say it is doing old Oakland. Yeah, I was

824
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 1: gonna say, ok, it's the one where I think it

825
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: might be a little more dangerous. But they were fun.

826
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,280
Speaker 1: It was fun. Yeah, were fun, Pete. They weren't being people.

827
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 1: Um I was gonna go more on the Where would

828
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 1: I When I think of it, I think of it

829
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: going as a fan and wearing the other team's jersey

830
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 1: and umkand you would go to Oakland. I've just heard

831
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 1: some stories about the old some weaponry being brought out.

832
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 1: It's one thing to get hit with this hit with.

833
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 1: But the twenty eighteen environment was a fun one. I

834
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,759
Speaker 1: thought when Cowboys went out there was a night game. Yeah,

835
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 1: and that was a great game too. It was December.

836
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 1: I was a big, a real good game, right that

837
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 1: right there in the end zone. I mean, they are

838
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 1: fired up in more ways than what I remember that

839
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 1: game for. Jeffie. Yeah, I remember them from bringing out

840
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: that card, bringing that to get that first down, just

841
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 1: to look on his face like, oh, I'm just gonna

842
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:10,719
Speaker 1: weazzle around with this camera and I'm gonna segnal first down,

843
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,439
Speaker 1: like oh yeah, just but the goat made the winning play.

844
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 1: And by the way, the violence in both you know,

845
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 1: to a fans fighting, they'll go fight at both places.

846
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 1: I'm just saying those are the those are the two

847
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 1: that come to mind. If someone was like, I'm gonna

848
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: go to this road game and I'm gonna wear my

849
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 1: whatever jersey, those are two spots, right, Yeah, don't I

850
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 1: would definitely say don't, don't, don't. No, no, no. I

851
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:32,320
Speaker 1: would actually think it's like that now in Vegas for

852
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: the readers, I would do it. I shouldn't do it.

853
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,359
Speaker 1: It's not it's not worth the aggravation. And then if

854
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 1: you're taking some family members with you, don't no, Yeah, No,

855
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 1: it's just it's just not worth it. But with that

856
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 1: being said, there will be a lot of Cowboys fans

857
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,440
Speaker 1: there Sunday night. There will be There'll be a section.

858
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: There's always a section. No more than don't be a

859
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: blessing man? Good ye man? Yeah, oh, they'll be there.

860
00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:58,879
Speaker 1: Power to the people, man. No, I'm not going. I'm

861
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: not going, but just broadcasting. I have a question for

862
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 1: all of you actually, okay, just something that Mike and

863
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 1: I discussed. Do you think Mike McCarthy deserves more credit

864
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: for where this team is because if it was the

865
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 1: reverse and what their record is, like let's say they

866
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 1: were one in four, we'd be talking about Rob's a

867
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: nice guy. Let you positive Rob, Rob? Yeah. I think um.

868
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 1: And you're seeing this online a little bit too, people

869
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:26,879
Speaker 1: talking and it's early, like new he's saying, but after

870
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 1: five games, if you're looking at potential Coach of the

871
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 1: Year candidates, I think he has to be on that

872
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: early list. If you go four and oh with your

873
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: backup quarterback, that automatically, I think gets you in that range.

874
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 1: And I think he I don't know if he gets

875
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 1: enough credit for keeping the team positive, keeping the team

876
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: focused through this a lot of He has a great staff.

877
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 1: He has a great staff, great coordinators, great position coaches.

878
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:50,799
Speaker 1: That's a big part of it. But yeah, I mean

879
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,400
Speaker 1: he's got the pulse of his team, no doubt, he's

880
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,200
Speaker 1: probably not getting enough. But to your point about the

881
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 1: how much he would be getting blamed if I'd say

882
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,879
Speaker 1: they were one in four, Yeah, that that just comes

883
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 1: with the dinner. Whether you're a coach or you're a quarterback,

884
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 1: you just do you live life like that that you're

885
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:10,279
Speaker 1: probably gonna get not enough credit when you're winning, and

886
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,319
Speaker 1: you probably get too much blame when you lose, and

887
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 1: so especially and I believe that that is on a

888
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 1: pretty high level, whether you're you're talking about college coaching,

889
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,279
Speaker 1: any sport, whatever, but I think it's ratcheted up to

890
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 1: the highest level when you're the Dallas Cowboys coach. Obviously,

891
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 1: when Cooper Rush went down and so many people thought

892
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,320
Speaker 1: the season was over, and Mike McCarthy had told stood

893
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: in front of us the Median set, you know, there's

894
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,359
Speaker 1: a lot of football to go, he was positive, kept

895
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 1: his team positive. For me, the thing I appreciate about

896
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:41,359
Speaker 1: Mike was watching how many bad decisions we've seen from

897
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 1: head coaches the past couple of weeks. You see Josh

898
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 1: McDaniels going for two four minutes to go when all

899
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 1: you need to do is kick the extra point to

900
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: tie it up. Jim Harball has lost two games at

901
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: home for the Ravens with stupid calls. Brandon Staley's atrocious

902
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:57,799
Speaker 1: at game management, and that's been the thing that Mike

903
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,520
Speaker 1: McCarthy came from Green Bay with Duke can't the game.

904
00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: You know what, people have surpassed whatever they thought about

905
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy in terms of making some bozo decisions. Here,

906
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,400
Speaker 1: nobody manages a game in terms of I'm gonna let

907
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,280
Speaker 1: you beat yourself. Then Belichick he's gonna let you beat yourself.

908
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 1: He's won two Super Bowls watching two head coaches beat themselves.

909
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy's done a very good job, So you're correct,

910
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 1: he deserves the credit. But you know, it's still the Cowboys,

911
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 1: and ultimately this fan base is going to judge him

912
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:28,720
Speaker 1: by what he does in the playoffs. Yeah, he's carrying

913
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 1: the weight of Jason Garrett, Wade Phillips, Bill Parcels and

914
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,759
Speaker 1: and the other guys who've taken the Cowboys to the

915
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 1: playoffs and haven't been able to get them to the

916
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:37,719
Speaker 1: super Bowl. And if he did get them to the

917
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,840
Speaker 1: super Bowl, he can pretty much just walk to Canton.

918
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,280
Speaker 1: Because you win a Super Bowl with the Dallas Cowboys

919
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 1: and the Green Bay Packers, go ahead and try and

920
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: keep that person out of Canton. Yeah, and I can recall. Okay,

921
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 1: that's great, that's great. I'm just I'm being seriously. I

922
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 1: hear you. I hear you. I hear you. I hear you.

923
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 1: But boy, we go end it right there. I'm just

924
00:43:54,480 --> 00:44:00,560
