00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:18,280

00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, nice felt left out yesterday. I getting better at.

26
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 3: This Chris being in the back of Kyle Yeoman's glad

27
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 3: you're with us, all right, Nick, we haven't heard your

28
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 3: thoughts on the Miami lost twenty two twenty yet you

29
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 3: were there.

30
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 4: What happened?

31
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think if we remember back to last week,

32
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 2: I would not. I was not expecting this defense to

33
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 2: play as well as it did on Sunday in Miami.

34
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 2: I think that was probably the biggest surprise. Honestly, the

35
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: run defense was great. It was pretty pretty damn good,

36
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 2: limiting mostered in a chance to the yardage that they had.

37
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: If you told me going in that that was going

38
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 2: to be the case, you were only going to limit

39
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 2: that Dolphins offense to one touchdown, You're going to force

40
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 2: them into some long field goal situations with a kicker

41
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 2: that had missed seven straight fifty plus yard field goals

42
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 2: going into that game. That always told you, oh, okay,

43
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 2: this this Cowboys team that they figured this out. But

44
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 2: that second and third quarter man not being able to

45
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 2: get anything going offensively. Obviously, the fumble on the goal

46
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 2: line from Hunter Lipkey, it's very tough, very tough stuff

47
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 2: to talk about it. Unfortunately, let's pull the band aid.

48
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 2: This is you know, I think I think there's probably

49
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 2: half half blame on both sides between Dak and Lipkey.

50
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a that's a that's a handoff that

51
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: you got to practice throughout the week, and that they

52
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: haven't had that practice throughout the year. Obviously, he had

53
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 2: only had six touches coming into the game. Go ahead,

54
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 2: go ahead, you touch on it.

55
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 5: So going back, how long do you think hunter Lypkey

56
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 5: has been playing the running back slash fullback position in

57
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 5: his whole life? Okay, yeah, so there's certain just mechanics

58
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 5: operation for per se that just just happened every single time,

59
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 5: meaning like arm up, armed down with a little clamping motion, right, Okay.

60
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 5: He had no bottom arm. The bottom arm was was

61
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 5: was non existent.

62
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 2: We all came high.

63
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 6: We talked about it in the in one of our

64
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 6: breaks on yesterday's show about the mesh of you know

65
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 6: when you do like the read option, like the polling.

66
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 6: I wonder if he thought that Dak was gonna pull.

67
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a I just I just don't understand why

68
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 2: they would pull.

69
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 4: Right there, there's no pull.

70
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 5: It's just it was bad mechanics. He didn't have a

71
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 5: bottom arm, there was no bottom bar. It was more

72
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 5: of like was like this, so Dak put the ball

73
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 5: rather high low. It doesn't matter, like that's what the

74
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 5: whole personal base. There's no there's no base, there's no

75
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 5: bottom shelf, right, so the ball is gonna come straight out.

76
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter who you are. So that's just he

77
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 4: was anxious. That's what that's what comes out to.

78
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 5: He was anxious, and he lost his mechanics and unfortunately

79
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 5: and the Cowboys had to pay for.

80
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 2: It four touches on the first drive though, like whenever

81
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: he lined up with the goal line, I was like,

82
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 2: oh my god, here it is.

83
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 5: This is the top.

84
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 2: Of the mountain. And then we just came crashing down

85
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 2: the boulder, came down the mountain and hit me in

86
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 2: the jones boler so bad.

87
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 4: But Nick's running down the mountain.

88
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 2: It's just gonna clamp me. But yeah, ten point swing

89
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 2: right out of the gates. I mean when that happened,

90
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 2: and they came down and kicked the field goal, and

91
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 2: they had two opportunities to have some big shots that

92
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 2: Tyreek dropped the one that would have been a ninety

93
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: three yard touchdown, and then Waddle came back with a

94
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 2: fifty yarder. I was just worried that that defense was

95
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 2: gonna get killed over the top ball game, and then

96
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 2: that didn't happen. The defense held up, and obviously I

97
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 2: have to give credit to that unit for being able

98
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 2: to do that against an offense like that. But man,

99
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: the offense, they're gonna have to come to play in

100
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 2: all four quarters. The third quarter has been the quarter

101
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 2: that has killed in the most this season, but it

102
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,720
Speaker 2: was stacked with the second quarter this season or this

103
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 2: past week. So we'll see against Detroit obviously a really

104
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 2: good opportunity to bounce back. We'll dive into it today,

105
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 2: going back to going back home against a quality NFC opponent.

106
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 2: I think there's still time to write this shit before

107
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 2: the playoffs start. But man, the way Tampa Bay played

108
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 2: this past weekend, this wildcard round isn't becoming such an

109
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 2: afterthought anymore. So they've stacked four wins in a row.

110
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 2: I think that's gonna be probably what we look at

111
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 2: here in a couple of weeks.

112
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 6: But what do you think the key is to on

113
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 6: the teams you've been on when to play well coming

114
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 6: out of halftime. Is there anything that you've noticed, because

115
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 6: you know on the outside there's a lot of the play,

116
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 6: you know, halftime speech and.

117
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 4: Halftime all sorts of stuff.

118
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 5: Honest with you, man, there's there's substantially more talk on

119
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 5: outside looking in than there ever is on the inside.

120
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you only got eight minutes in there.

121
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, this quick, Isaiah's literally.

122
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 3: You walk in the job, you walk in the locker room,

123
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 3: you throw your helmet in your locker for a hot second,

124
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,799
Speaker 3: you go use the bathroom, you sit down, you grab

125
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:41,239
Speaker 3: a drink.

126
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 5: Coach runs in there. Literally, the whole coaching staff runs

127
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 5: into the locker room. They get in front of the

128
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 5: border like all right, boys, listen up, listen up, all right,

129
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 5: this was going on, boom boom, and they hit on

130
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 5: a couple points. And then it's like they have to

131
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 5: run out and get back to the booth like it's

132
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 5: literally no time. So I mean, yeah, you addressed up

133
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 5: the key points, but it's not like you're sitting there

134
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 5: having a whole team meeting, you know what I'm saying

135
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 5: for a half hour like this not that much time.

136
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 4: They're gonna come down.

137
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 5: They're going to tell you exactly what's been going on,

138
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 5: all right, the changes that need to happen really really quick.

139
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 5: And then like it's gone, and then you come out

140
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 5: and you try to execute better. Like that's there's there's more,

141
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 5: substantially more talk. On the outside looking in, it's just

142
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 5: an insight. You're just you're playing, man, you're playing. You recognize, Hey,

143
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 5: things aren't going our way. We've got to make some changes.

144
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 5: But it's not like a come to Jesus meeting where

145
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 5: you have to you know, everybody's sitting there kumbaya and

146
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 5: at halftime.

147
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 2: Would it be comparable to would it? Would it be

148
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 2: comparable to like in between drives having conversations when your

149
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 2: coaches on the sideline. I mean it's the same thing.

150
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 4: Basically, there's there's more time in the game that's on

151
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 4: the drive.

152
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 5: There's more, there's more information that's conveyed in between drives,

153
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 5: and there areas at haveltime.

154
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 6: I do think it's funny because I think on the

155
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 6: outside you look at it as it's like the movies.

156
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 6: You know, it's like any given Sunday, it's like you're

157
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 6: in picturing almost like Mike McCarthy's the only one talking

158
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 6: to the entire team the Niners. I want to say

159
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 6: it was last season. I think it was last season

160
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 6: during preseason game, they let one of our writers at

161
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 6: the athletic go in the locker room. Now the writer

162
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 6: can only write about certain things. But to your point,

163
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 6: it was a lot about how people are broken off

164
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 6: into groups. It's not like this one big like message

165
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 6: rah rah, you know, speech in the middle of the

166
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 6: locker room type thing like I think that maybe you

167
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 6: see in the TV shows and movies.

168
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 3: Everybody take a knee right right, and like you get

169
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 3: the white board and then there's like a soft music underline.

170
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 4: Literally, the coaches.

171
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 6: Are the same for you in college too, same deal

172
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 6: where you break off like that or because it's a

173
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 6: longer halftime. It's the reason I ask.

174
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 4: I feel like college was more deliberate in terms of

175
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 4: the team.

176
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 5: Okay, but then you're like the the OC comes, you know,

177
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 5: or your decordinator takes the team. They mentioned a couple

178
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 5: of things that you need to hit on, like okay,

179
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 5: get what your position groups, and like your position coach

180
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 5: comes over to your lockers like all right, look, this

181
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 5: is what we're looking at. This is what we need

182
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 5: to do, and then you're gone. But like in NFL,

183
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 5: it's quick. Literally by the time you come away from

184
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 5: the dog on urinal and come back to your locker.

185
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 5: You can see the coaching staff literally running in like

186
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 5: they're running again. They're like okay, okay, you know, like

187
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 5: hurry up, and everybody knows they only have a hot

188
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 5: second to get across their message, so they get everybody's

189
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 5: tension real quick and they're like okay. They write their

190
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 5: little quick notes on a board, they tell everybody what'll

191
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 5: do it, and they're like all right. Then they're running

192
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 5: back out the door, trying to get back up to

193
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 5: the dog on booth.

194
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 4: Interesting.

195
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you've got you've got moments with your position coach,

196
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 3: and a lot of times those position coach coaches are

197
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 3: on the sideline, so you'll probably get a word with

198
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 3: them as you're on your way in or on your

199
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 3: way out, whenever you're going in the locker room. But

200
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 3: then you've got the coordinators and some of those other

201
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 3: coaches that see it from a different angle than you do,

202
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 3: and they have a different perspective, and so maybe that's

203
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 3: the one time you get the chance to hear that

204
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 3: different perspective. It's interesting to think about because teams, there

205
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 3: are first half and second half teams in any level

206
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 3: of the sport, and so far the Cowboys, at least

207
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,319
Speaker 3: in terms of the first quarter, have been great. In

208
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 3: terms of the fourth quarter, for the most part, have

209
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 3: been pretty darn good. Third quarter has been where they've

210
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 3: been really missing that same level of emphasis.

211
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 4: I think that just comes from a coach's adjustments.

212
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 5: Some coaches are better at not only gaining attaining knowledge

213
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 5: in that first half, but then being able to quickly

214
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 5: convey that information and those changes that need to take

215
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 5: place to your team, and your team being able to

216
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 5: make those alterations and execute them on the field in

217
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 5: the second half. I think that's the more important aspect.

218
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 5: And that's not to say that you know what it

219
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 5: is to say some coaches are better communicators than others,

220
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 5: and then the team has to receive and actually go

221
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 5: out there and apply it. Now, there's different levels of changes,

222
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 5: right there's hey, you know, maybe the coach in the

223
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 5: booth saw something that everybody else on the field didn't see.

224
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 5: It's like, hey, you know, makesure shorten you're split down

225
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,719
Speaker 5: on this, or make sure that you don't overset, you know,

226
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 5: if you're tackled it. Just little cues and pointers here

227
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 5: and there that might that might pay huge dividends in

228
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 5: that second half. But it's not an overtaking. It's not

229
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 5: a hey, we're gonna we're going to change everything that

230
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 5: we're doing now. It's just that's not what it is.

231
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:45,959
Speaker 6: Speaking of some changes, I just want to throw this

232
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,839
Speaker 6: out there, because we didn't talk about yesterday to you guys.

233
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 6: I really liked when they won the toss, they took

234
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 6: the ball, just as it kind of change up. What

235
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 6: did you guys think of that?

236
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 4: I think you have. Yeah, I gotta get out. I

237
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 4: think it's a situational basis, and.

238
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 6: I'm doing it against the Niners two. I don't think

239
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 6: they've had the ball once to start the game any

240
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 6: of those three last three nine Ers games. There's just

241
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 6: something about getting a lead with this particular team. I'm

242
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 6: not saying, like Mike McCarthy loves the double double, the

243
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 6: going into half scoring, having the ball coming out, the

244
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 6: percentage you winning that game are through the roof. I

245
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 6: get that, But for certain teams, I think you have

246
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 6: to change things up. So when they won the toss

247
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 6: and they took it, I really like that. Now, of

248
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 6: course they didn't score, but the way that they went

249
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 6: down the field like that, I liked it. But I

250
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 6: wanted to hear what you guys had to say.

251
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 3: Well, if you have Lipkey hold onto the ball and

252
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,119
Speaker 3: he's into the in zone, and let's say the Dolphins

253
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 3: and the next Cowboys drive end up the exact same

254
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 3: as it would have been anyway as a field goal,

255
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 3: and then see Lamb touchdown, you're up fourteen to three.

256
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 3: I think, completely different ballgame at fourteen to three, and

257
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 3: I think you're And of course it's a butterfly effect.

258
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 3: If Flipkey scores, then you don't know what happens after

259
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 3: that because it's a different ballgame. But let's say that

260
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,559
Speaker 3: that it does stay the same and he just holds

261
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 3: on and crosses the goal line, you're up fourteen to

262
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 3: three on the road. I think this team with an

263
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 3: eleven point lead is a completely different ball club. So

264
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 3: I agree with you in this situation. And I think

265
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 3: in a situation against like per Se forty nine ers, yes,

266
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 3: I would take it. Against San Francisco Philadelphia, I think

267
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 3: I would rather my defense get out there and get

268
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 3: a stop first.

269
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 4: It's just kind of a situational basis.

270
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 3: But I liked it in this game because you thought

271
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 3: you were gonna have to go down and score points

272
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 3: and control time of possession.

273
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 4: You did so you just turned it over at the

274
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 4: goal line.

275
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. I agree. News and Notes, Yeah, let's

276
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 2: do it. Practice report coming out of yesterday. So it's

277
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 2: a short week. Reminder of the game is on Saturday

278
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 2: night this week, so yesterday was treated as a quote

279
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 2: unquote Wednesday here in the building. We could dive into

280
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 2: some injury things here. Jonathan Hankins, we spoke to him

281
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 2: in the locker room last week. Y'all may have touched

282
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 2: on this yesterday when Jerry Jones spoke on the fan,

283
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 2: but there didn't seem to be as much optimism yesterday

284
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 2: morning as Hankins had last week. As far as playing

285
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 2: against Detroit, he was listed as it did not practice

286
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 2: with his knee slash ankle injury. We'll see as that

287
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 2: as the week goes on where he's at with that.

288
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 2: Tyron Smith once again did not practice with his back

289
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 2: injury that kept him out of the game on Sunday

290
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 2: against Miami and then going through some more injury stuff.

291
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 2: Stefan Gilmour he told me in the locker om matter

292
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 2: for the game that he suffered a rib injury during

293
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 2: the game. It looked pretty scary whenever it happened initially,

294
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 2: just because he was kind of writhing in pain, threw

295
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 2: his helmet off really quick, but he was back two

296
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,680
Speaker 2: plays later on the field. He was on the injury report,

297
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 2: but it was for rest reasons. The rib is not

298
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 2: on here, So that's that's a good sign as far

299
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 2: as him going forward this week. And then it's really

300
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: quick to touch on some other ones. Rego Daddle ankle limited,

301
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 2: Brandon Cook's rest limited as well, DeMarcus Lawrence with rest,

302
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 2: Jordan Lewis with rest, Hunter Luke has a thigh injury.

303
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 2: You know, maybe that had something to do. You know,

304
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 2: he was limited, and Molly Cooker with his ankle injury

305
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 2: limited as well. Okay, so and no major concerns for

306
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 2: the Lions either. Brought right backup tight end hip injury.

307
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 2: He was the only one that did not practice yesterday.

308
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 3: So for the most part, whenever you're looking up and

309
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 3: down the roster, it's about the same as what it

310
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 3: was last week, which is, I mean not one would

311
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 3: that's great, but Tyron Smith questionable, Hankin's probably doubtful, And

312
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 3: that's what you've got going on to injury wise, right yeah,

313
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 3: do you think there's a better shot to see Tyron

314
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 3: this week? Do you where would your confidence level meeter be?

315
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 2: I right now, I think he plays on Saturday. I mean,

316
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 2: he hasn't practiced first day of the week at all

317
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 2: this season. They're not going to practice in the first

318
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 2: day of the week when he's battling something. So I'm

319
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 2: not I'm not concerned yet about Tyron. Ask me Friday

320
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 2: and we'll see. But as of right now, I don't.

321
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 2: I think there's a little bit more concern with Hankins,

322
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 2: if you're tsking me specifically.

323
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 6: But so, Tyron was walking around the locker room yesterday

324
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 6: and so for two things why that stood out to me.

325
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 6: One he was moving better than he was last week

326
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 6: during the week, and two is that when Tyron I'm

327
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 6: not saying this is a fact, but there's oftentimes I

328
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 6: would see Tyron not being in the locker room at

329
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 6: off he didn't think he was going to play. Yeah,

330
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 6: they're just the fact that he walked, he walked through there,

331
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 6: was at his locker for a little bit. Normally he

332
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 6: would you just wouldn't even see him in there. So

333
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 6: I thought that was a pretty positive sign. Again, that's

334
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 6: just some reading between the lines. But yeah, I would

335
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 6: agree with you. I think he plays in this.

336
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 2: Of course the one day I missed Tyron Smith.

337
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 6: Of course, dude, I will say, though I've been covering

338
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 6: this team since twenty eleven, if you were to miss

339
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 6: a day, yesterday was the day. Yeah, and like there

340
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 6: was just nothing going on there. It's it was the

341
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 6: least productive locker room day of any time any my

342
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 6: entire time covering the Cowboys there. So yeah, including those

343
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 6: times when you go in there after a season ending loss,

344
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 6: you know for the locker room they get out pretty bad. Yeah,

345
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 6: but no, this was there was just not a lot

346
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 6: of guys there. So that means that today will be

347
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 6: very busy. Everybody will be talking the word.

348
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 3: There's nothing to read into there, right with what based

349
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 3: off of two straight losses.

350
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 6: No, it's because the way they flipped this practice.

351
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wanted to put it out there because everybody

352
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 3: at home is probably like said, like, no locker.

353
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 2: Room probably, No, it's worse than a season ending loss.

354
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 6: No, no, no, no, they flipped the they flipped these practice schedules.

355
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 6: So that's why it's like that. So the locker room

356
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 6: available at least early in the morning when like guys

357
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 6: are either just getting there or all the guys you

358
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 6: don't see everybody at their locker because they don't have

359
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 6: to go there. So that's the reason. It's not because

360
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 6: of this loss or anything like that, because I thought

361
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 6: this loss after the game too, remind me a lot

362
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 6: of the Philadelphia game, where it was a loss, but

363
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 6: I didn't get the sense that it was like, you know,

364
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 6: after the Buffalo Niners game, We're like, we got major

365
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 6: things that we need to fix here, and then I'll.

366
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 2: Say this, I think there was a little bit more

367
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 2: frustration in the locker room after this loss to any

368
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 2: of the other four or five. It was similar to

369
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 2: Arizona in that sense where it's like why did this happen?

370
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 2: Like how did we not come out with the win?

371
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 2: And little kind of like the vibe I felt.

372
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,239
Speaker 6: And a little bit of more officials for sure.

373
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 2: But Micah dofinitely would stand off the record.

374
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 3: Absolutely, I could see that because there's a there's a

375
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 3: frustration with man. They they had every opportunity and they

376
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 3: let it slip because of the lip key fumble and

377
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 3: plays down the stretch and things like that. Didn't get

378
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 3: a stop at the end. From your defense, it felt

379
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 3: like Dallas had every opportunity to win that game and

380
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 3: they didn't, And so I could sense a little bit

381
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 3: of frustration. But you're right from the way that they

382
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 3: answered questions, and for what we could see from here

383
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 3: at the Star and looking at postgame reaction, it was okay,

384
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 3: we've we can learn from this, but we have a

385
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 3: bit of confidence on the road in a way in

386
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 3: a loss like this.

387
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 4: Not a moral victory, but still something to grow upon.

388
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 4: All right, when we come back, we're gonna preview.

389
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 3: The Dallas defense versus the offense of the Detroit Lions.

390
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 3: There are some weapons here, is the speed comparable.

391
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 4: To Miami, And what do they do well with Jared

392
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 4: Goffic quarterback? We'll talk about it when we come back.

393
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 4: More talking cowboys.

394
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 7: Right after this, Todd thought it would be secure to

395
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 7: jog in the cheat of Savannah. Todd believed the big

396
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 7: Cat repellent he bought online was reliable. And now Todd

397
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 7: is trying to be faster than this cheetah that can

398
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 7: run eighty miles per hour. But the good news is

399
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 7: Todd has at and T five g. It is fast, reliable,

400
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 7: and secure, And he learned the best thing to do

401
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 7: is stop running and toss her the backpack with the

430
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 11: Welcome back into Dear Doctor, the show where I answered

431
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 11: life's questions with an ice cold can of doctor Pepper. Sheila,

432
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 11: let's hear from my next caller.

433
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 6: Would you, Dear doctor?

434
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 3: My friend supported me during a tough time.

435
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 12: But what's the right gift that says thanks for being

436
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 12: a soldier? To cry out?

437
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 11: Okay, this one's easy, I say, give her a delicious

438
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,879
Speaker 11: doctor Pepper. Nothing says thanks good better than one of

439
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 11: a kind soda. Yes, any Doctor Pepper flavor will do. Now,

440
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 11: Just a reminder that I don't need to be a

441
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 11: real doctor to know that Doctor Pepper is the one

442
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 11: you deserve.

443
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,720

452
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:03,439

453
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 4: They would agree with that. The preparation was off today.

454

Speaker 4: Yeah all right.

458
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 3: Detroit Lions eleven and four, fresh off of their first

459
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:31,640
Speaker 3: division title since nineteen ninety three, Isaia, where were you.

460
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 4: In nineteen ninety three? Dude, that was nine years old?

461
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 4: Nine years old?

462
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 6: Where were you eleven man Diehard Liones?

463
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 4: Wow? Yeah yeah, So do you remember that?

464
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 11: Yeah?

465
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 4: Oh yeah yeah. Did you get the T shirts and everything?

466
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 4: They didn't really do a whole lot.

467
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,239
Speaker 6: I got, well, I went and well after they won

468
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 6: in ninety one, after they beat the Cowboys and that

469
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 6: was the first time they had won a playoff game.

470
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 6: They had like some of the players like Lomas Brown

471
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 6: air cream or some of the guys at like autograph

472
00:19:58,119 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 6: signing or something like that. So I have a picture

473
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 6: of like I was, I don't know, like nine ten

474
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 6: years old with Eric Kramer because it was like the

475
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 6: biggest deal. Because I mean, to be honest with you,

476
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 6: this isn't just a Detroit Lions thing. I mean you

477
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 6: see what the Pistons are going through right now, the

478
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 6: Red Wings, the Tigers, they've all had like the worst

479
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 6: seasons like any franchise can have. So when there is

480
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 6: any type of like what's going on right now, that's

481
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 6: what I'm telling you. There's gonna be a lot of

482
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 6: Lions fans a game Saturday night. I mean, like, yeah,

483
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 6: I got four or five friends coming down because of

484
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 6: the one. You think it's going to be better weather

485
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 6: than it is in Detroit. It's fair New Year's Eve,

486
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,479
Speaker 6: It's a Saturday Marquee game, and your team is finally

487
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 6: good and they're playing another team that's good.

488
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 4: So yeah, we've talked about that before too.

489
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 3: Of with AT and T Stadium being a destination stadium,

490
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 3: absolutely fans across the NFL want to go to Arlington

491
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 3: to see the stadium, and I don't blame them.

492
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 4: Every time we walk in there, it's it's insane.

493
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 6: And there is that like you look at some of

494
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 6: the questions that their players are asked, Like I saw

495
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 6: Jered GoFish say like at the end of his press conference,

496
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 6: was asked about the whole, like so what do you

497
00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 6: think of the whole mystique of whole like America's teams

498
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 6: that still lives. Yeah, you know, so that adds to

499
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 6: it too, because when you said that, the first thing

500
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,479
Speaker 6: I thought of was Vegas. That's going to be a

501
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 6: destination I see for a lot of teams going forward

502
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:10,479
Speaker 6: because they're fans. You can go to Vegas and then

503
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 6: to your team play the Raiders. But there is something

504
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 6: about Dallas, the Cowboys. If you've never been to Texas,

505
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 6: most people I would think, because I know I was

506
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 6: like this, you think of like Texas like is football,

507
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 6: you know, So there is that part of it too.

508
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 6: And then again, like you're thinking December, Texas, the weather

509
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 6: probably be decent, especially if you're from Michigan.

510
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 4: You know, yeah, yeah, this weather. It's supposed to be

511
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 4: cold on Saturday, but it's not supposed to be like Detroit,

512
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 4: Detroit cool. That's not happening.

513
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 3: But with all that being said, I mean, the Lions

514
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 3: have been playing very good football and the offense of course,

515
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 3: run by Jared Goff. You've got some weapons, David Montgomery,

516
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 3: Jamir Gibbs at the running back position. Sam Laporta, who

517
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 3: was a draft target for the Cowboys, went a little

518
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 3: bit too high in the second round for Dallas to

519
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 3: even have really a shot at him at the tight

520
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 3: end position. He's had a phenomenal rookie season. And you've

521
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 3: got like the trio on the outside of Jamison Williams,

522
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 3: a Monas, Saint Brown, Josh Reynolds, Donovan People's jones that

523
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 3: are that are out at wide receiver. It's mostly Saint

524
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,679
Speaker 3: Brown and Reynolds that have kind of been the guys

525
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 3: this year.

526
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 8: Uh.

527
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 3: With with this offensive line too, and the offensive line

528
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 3: with Pinney Suel, they don't allow a whole lot of pressure.

529
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 2: This offensive line is really good. Yeah, it's it's it's

530
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 2: kind of the core of what they do offensively. It's

531
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 2: why they've been able to run the ball so well

532
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 2: with multiple guys in the backfield, even when Montgomery gets

533
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 2: hurt or Gibbs gets hurt, they can throw other guys

534
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 2: in there and they still have success. It's allowed Jared

535
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 2: Goff to really settle in in the pocket and have time,

536
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 2: and when when Jared Goff has time and we see

537
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 2: what he did in the Rams offense, he's starting to

538
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 2: do that here in Detroit as well. They got two

539
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 2: guys up front. You can make the argument three guys

540
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 2: up front that are Pro Bowl, all Pro type caliber guys,

541
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 2: Frank Ragnow at center and Pine Seol at tackle, and

542
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 2: then the third is Graham Glasgow at guard.

543
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, this offensive line is up there in terms of

544
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 3: what Dallas has had to go up against. But Isaiah,

545
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 3: when you look at Jered Goff in the way that

546
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,360
Speaker 3: this passing game rolls, is it is it predicated off

547
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 3: of the same type of play action, the speed, the

548
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 3: motion that we saw.

549
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,119
Speaker 4: From Miami or is it completely different.

550
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 5: No, it's more simplistic. I think they're running more base

551
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 5: concepts offensively. But the one thing that kind of sticks

552
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 5: out from the film that I have seen is these

553
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 5: guys are their patient.

554
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 4: They're super patient.

555
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 5: They're they'll they'll try to push it down the field

556
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 5: from time to time, but ultimately these guys are perfectly

557
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,359
Speaker 5: fine just throwing underneath. If you want to play soft covers,

558
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 5: they will they will dump dump, dump, you know, quick pass, quick,

559
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 5: pass underneath and then ren the ball like they're they're

560
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 5: not in a hurry. You don't get the sense that

561
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 5: they're like they feel like they have to have a

562
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 5: big play. They are perfectly content on having long drives.

563
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 5: And it shows really their maturity and their and their

564
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 5: coaching staff and that and and that's that's kind of

565
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 5: the sense that I get, like these guys are mature,

566
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 5: They're confident in who they are, and they want to

567
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 5: just date. They like beating you up, like they like

568
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 5: the physical aspect of long drives, like they take they.

569
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 4: Take joy in that. So you don't like Miami is

570
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 4: more so like hey, they'll run it.

571
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,719
Speaker 5: They'll beat you up and running the ball, but ultimately

572
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 5: they want a big play like they they love the

573
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 5: big play this team. You don't get that sense like

574
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,400
Speaker 5: they're just they're just they're prying fifteen play drive cool

575
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 5: like they they like it.

576
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 2: It's it's similar to Dallas in that sense that they

577
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 2: want to win the time of possession battle, and if

578
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 2: they win the time with possession battle, then they're cons

579
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 2: hit with whatever happens on the following on the on

580
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 2: the back side of it. So uh, that's that's probably

581
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 2: the biggest thing you look at when both teams are

582
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 2: on offense on Saturday.

583
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 3: It's impressive how much they've gotten out of their young

584
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 3: guys too, how much of the impact they've gotten. I mean,

585
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 3: just look at this draft class. And I know we're

586
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 3: talking about the offensive side of the ball, but Sam Laporter,

587
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:44,120
Speaker 3: Jamier Gibbs both key cogs and their offensive attack. First

588
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,719
Speaker 3: round pick on Gibbs, second round pick on Laporta. They

589
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 3: also had another first and second round pick. And they're

590
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,959
Speaker 3: on the defensive side. Jack Campbell as you're starting linebacker,

591
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 3: and then you've got Brian Branch, who's your nickel at

592
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 3: the moment, who is a second round pick, And all

593
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 3: those guys are making impacts from this youth, which makes

594
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 3: me think that this team has a chance to build

595
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 3: moving forward.

596
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 4: This is only the beginning of the.

597
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 3: Lions window of what they're doing winning football games. And

598
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 3: I think, John, whenever you look at what the Lions

599
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 3: have done this year, there's an excitement around it, but

600
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 3: there's also a bit of an experience there that Dallas

601
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 3: could possibly take advantage of.

602
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, oh there is for sure, And I will say

603
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 6: I mean that it's very popular saying is same Old Lions.

604
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 6: You're always just waiting for the bottom to fall out.

605
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,959
Speaker 6: And so you mentioned that draft, and it looks good

606
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 6: right now, but I can tell you when it was

607
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 6: being drafted, there was a lot of criticism of like

608
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 6: running back, linebacker, tight end, that's we're using these premiing positions.

609
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 6: This is an organization that thought they were going to

610
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 6: be ahead of the curve and go Charles Rogers, Roy Williams,

611
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 6: Mike Williams at wide receiver and put all these guys

612
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 6: around Joey Harrington and it was a huge disaster. I

613
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 6: mean it led to that all and sixteen season that

614
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 6: they had. And so to see them actually have success

615
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 6: doing this, it makes you feel like, oh, you know,

616
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 6: something's different here. This isn't the same old Lions. There,

617
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 6: I will say, them building through the offensive line, having

618
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 6: those high draft picks. They're just things about the way

619
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 6: this team's built that remind me a little bit of

620
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 6: the twenty sixteen Cowboys, where Dak was NFL Rookie of

621
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 6: the Year, but Dak wasn't asked to do what he's

622
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,120
Speaker 6: being asked right now, like Jared Goff certainly not a rookie,

623
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 6: but he's also not being asked to just win these games.

624
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 6: It's like, hey, we got a good offensive line, we

625
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 6: got a good running game, you got a really good

626
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 6: receiver you can count on an I'm ran Saint Brown.

627
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 6: And so the next step is them trying to get

628
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 6: Jamison Williams to take you know, play like a first

629
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 6: round pick. He has got thirteen targets the last two games,

630
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 6: but it's been like a slow bill. It just doesn't

631
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,440
Speaker 6: seem like him and Golf had been on the same

632
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 6: page for a while, and so maybe they're getting there,

633
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 6: but no, it is certainly a young team that you

634
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,400
Speaker 6: know a lot of people are excited about, for sure.

635
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 6: But to Isaiah's point from earlier in the year, though,

636
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 6: a lot of really disappointed people that about the whole

637
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 6: not making a move of the deadline, especially when you

638
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 6: saw what Chase Young, what you had to give up

639
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 6: to Chase Young in San Francisco, because you had Chase

640
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 6: Young to this it takes everything to doing next, you know,

641
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,879
Speaker 6: Tiers so kind of like the Cowboys, they didn't make

642
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 6: any real big moves that like shake things up during

643
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:01,639
Speaker 6: the deadline with a lot of people are like, let's go,

644
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 6: let's go for it right time, four the move, and

645
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 6: maybe to your point, I think they didn't because they

646
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 6: do think this is just.

647
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 3: This is the beginning of the window. And I mean

648
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,919
Speaker 3: they've got three you mentioned high draft picks on that

649
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,120
Speaker 3: offensive line that has been very, very good this year.

650
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 3: You got three first rounders and two second or two

651
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 3: third rounders.

652
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 4: That's it. I mean, everybody is a top one hundred

653
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 4: pick on their offensive line. That's what they've got.

654
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 3: And then they've got some guys behind them that could

655
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 3: kind of fill in where it need be. Just kind

656
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 3: of pieces like that. So if they continue to stay healthy,

657
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 3: their offensive line is dangerous and that's gonna be something

658
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 3: that's going to challenge Dan Quinn in company. But when

659
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,960
Speaker 3: you look at this defense from the Cowboys side of

660
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 3: things and where they're banged up, Nick, do you have

661
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 3: any specific spot where Dallas is.

662
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 4: Going to have to bow up against this Lion's offense.

663
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 2: I mean, even though the run defense was really strong

664
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 2: this past week against Miami, it's another two headed monster

665
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 2: that you have to go up against. So yeah, it's

666
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 2: that defensive interior once again, especially when you factor in

667
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 2: the matchup that Mauzi and Neville Gallimore will have this week.

668
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,959
Speaker 2: Compared to last week against a reserve and Lester Cotton,

669
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,479
Speaker 2: and both of those guys were able to win some

670
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 2: reps against him and kind of force things to be

671
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,399
Speaker 2: a little bit of ray in the middle. Now you're

672
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 2: going up against an all pro center, all Pro caliber center,

673
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,439
Speaker 2: and it's only going to be more difficult. You got

674
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 2: two different style of backs. I think that's also something

675
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 2: a little bit different from Miami. You got Montgomery who's

676
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 2: going to be the thumper. He's going to come in

677
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 2: right down the middle of the defensive line and make

678
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 2: things difficult. And then Jamier Gibbs, he's going to be

679
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 2: the outside tackles guy, and he's going to make your

680
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 2: life hell in the receiving game as well. So it's

681
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 2: a multiple game that they run out of the backfield.

682
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 2: And that's what I worry about, is this defensive front

683
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 2: can't hold up.

684
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 3: What did you think about the interior defensive line against Miami.

685
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 2: I thought they played well, but I think more so

686
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 2: the running game and being able to limit that was

687
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 2: more of an effect of DeMarcus Lawrence being able to

688
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 2: seal off the edges. Michael Parsons did a really good

689
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 2: job of that as well. Even when he was put

690
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 2: back into the second level. And then I have to

691
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 2: credit Malik Hooker as well. He's sneakily one of the

692
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 2: better run defenders on this team, which is strange coming

693
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 2: from the level and typically he's coming from that high

694
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 2: safety look as well, which is also strange. But he

695
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 2: diagnoses those things so fast and he never bites on

696
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 2: play action. He typically knows it's it's It's quite impressive,

697
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 2: and so he's he's been able to make a significant

698
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 2: impact in the run game since he's been back, or

699
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 2: I guess just the Miami game since he's been back.

700
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, what do you think which part about the

701
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 3: interior defensive line?

702
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:23,479
Speaker 4: Uh, service ball.

703
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 5: I mean, they obviously took care of business in comparison

704
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 5: to the Buffalo game. I think obviously the Buffalo game

705
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 5: was mostly the edges that were really soft, and obviously

706
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 5: you miss Jonathan Hankin's presence. But you know, holistically, these

707
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 5: guys they had a relatively good game.

708
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 4: But to your point, you know, this is gonna be

709
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 4: a huge challenge for them.

710
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 5: This is a Miami was really efficient, you know, stat

711
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 5: wise coming into the game. Dallas took care of business

712
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 5: and met the match. This team is one thing you

713
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 5: know about them is their character is running the ball

714
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 5: like that the that's the literally the ethos of this

715
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 5: team is physicality. And if there's anybody outside of Buffalo

716
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 5: and outside of San francisc that it's going to test

717
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 5: you is it is freaking Dan Campbell. If there's any

718
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 5: there was any personality in his league that was gonna say, hey,

719
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 5: what we saw on film, let's see if that's true,

720
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 5: Like make them prove it. Like this is the guy

721
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 5: that's gonna say go downhill, downhill, downhill, and this game

722
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 5: might be over in sixty minutes on one side of

723
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 5: the ball or the other. You know, if coach McCarthy

724
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 5: or Dan Campbell, I think both of them gonna try

725
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 5: to take the air out the ball and really try

726
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 5: to try to try to meet physicality with force, and

727
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 5: you're gonna find out what you have.

728
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 4: You're saying, Tony Poller is gonna get more than twelve touches.

729
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 5: I hope, man, I freaking hope. But I think Dan

730
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 5: Campbell's definitely gonna try to prove a point in this game.

731
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 5: I was reading some of his comments and how excited

732
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 5: he is about about this game and coming to town

733
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 5: and oh yeah, and it's the Jimmy game and he's

734
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 5: he's ready, He's ready, and this office on line is

735
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 5: obviously they saw some they've seen some things multiple times

736
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 5: now that they're like, all.

737
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 4: Right, let's see. I mean, there's no different Do you

738
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 4: think there's maybe a factor here for for Mazzie Smith.

739
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 4: I mean we've talked.

740
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 3: About how there have been flashes, but that's about it

741
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 3: from Mazzi this year. I mean from Southfield, Michigan, Hope

742
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 3: into Michigan.

743
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 4: That's my hope. Can he have something similar happen this week?

744
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 2: My hope that's home.

745
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 5: No, I don't know, I don't I don't know what

746
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 5: his trigger is. Everybody has a trigger, Yeah, every person

747
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 5: walking this earth has a freaking trigger. And I'm hoping

748
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 5: that his competitive bug is triggered this week, not only

749
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 5: by Detroit coming to town, but also the fact that

750
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 5: there's another Michigan boy on the opposing side that might

751
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 5: just get a little bit more attention than he does

752
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 5: Aiden Hutchinson. Yeah, I'm hopeful that that that just pushes

753
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 5: his easy button and just turns him into the monster

754
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 5: that we know he can be.

755
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 4: But he just hasn't shown since he's been here.

756
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 6: And it is funny to say that though, because I

757
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 6: just think of being from Michigan. I'm not a Michigan

758
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 6: football fan, but those two guys are just like the

759
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 6: face of the turnaround to buy, like Michigan's in there

760
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 6: the third straight college football playoff. Like those two guys

761
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 6: right there, Hutchinson and Mazzie Smith, that like helped change

762
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 6: everything for them.

763
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 3: Do you think do you remember Mazi maybe being a

764
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 3: a Lions fan. Did that ever stick out to you,

765
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 3: like growing up or anything. I've never asked him that question. Oh,

766
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 3: I I don't know if from back from draft process now,

767
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 3: I don't.

768
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 6: I've never heard him talk about anything like that. Jhonathan

769
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 6: Haangens though last week certainly sounded like he like, this

770
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 6: is the game he was targeting. He wanted he's from

771
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 6: Detroit two he wants to get back for and I

772
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 6: mean to next point. There was just a lot of

773
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 6: stuff about how he would help out in this game

774
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 6: so much if he could play, because he knows that

775
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 6: they want to run the football.

776
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 2: Oh, Mazzi's not a fan of football, remember that's yeah,

777
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 2: that's right, Like he likes hitting people.

778
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was thinking about that the other day, like

779
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 3: that's a quote from training camp that whendn't happen.

780
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 4: Everybody's like, oh, yeah, that's like he's a maller. And

781
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 4: now everybody's kind of like.

782
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 3: Thinking about that quote and it's like, oh, maybe that

783
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 3: wasn't Yeah, maybe.

784
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 2: He was serious.

785
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 4: He was genuine, He was totally genuine.

786
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like hidding people.

787
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, sweet Mazzie.

788
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 2: That when he said that, we were just like.

789
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 4: I hope he finds it.

790
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 3: I do, I really do. And I haven't given up

791
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 3: on Masi yet. I still think he can be a

792
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 3: valuable piece of the interior defensive line for a long time,

793
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 3: become it.

794
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 4: Just it hasn't hit yet.

795
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,479
Speaker 3: It hasn't hit yet, And like you said, maybe it

796
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 3: takes a trigger, Maybe it takes a flip of the switch,

797
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 3: and maybe that comes.

798
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 4: This week against Detroit. All right, let's take our second break.

Speaker 7: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per

839
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 7: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

840
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 7: toss her the backpack with the beef stew at and

Speaker 4: I don't want to mess up my day. All right, Well, here.

856
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 6: We'll get through this real quick. So there's a gentleman

857
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,319
Speaker 6: from the Chargers by the name of Sebastian Joseph Day,

858
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 6: a defensive tackle who probably would help a lot of

859
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 6: teams run defense. And he was released and free to sign. Well,

860
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 6: he was put on waivers. I don't think it. No

861
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 6: one claimed him, so he's free to sign with any

862
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 6: team he wanted. So it seems like that would be

863
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:32,360
Speaker 6: a potential fit for the Dallas Cowboys.

864
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 4: Wasn't he a captain?

865
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 6: He was? He was one of their captains.

866
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:35,919
Speaker 4: Ye in great leader.

867
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 6: Then yes, and so and so he was available within

868
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,799
Speaker 6: the last few days and he did not sign with

869
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 6: the Cowboys. He signed a one year deal with the

870
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 6: San Francisco forty nine ers, of course, and so the

871
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 6: rich get richer, and they have added a key piece,

872
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 6: much like they did right before the trade deadline with

873
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 6: Chase Young. So, yeah, Isaiah, what are your thoughts.

874
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 4: How many defensive lignment have they acquired? Now, have any? No? No,

875
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:05,439
Speaker 4: let's think about it. They haven't.

876
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 5: They acquired an entire starting defensive line as their backup

877
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 5: defensive line.

878
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:12,879
Speaker 2: That is what I think. Go through Chase Young, Randy Gregory, Sebastian, Joseph.

879
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 4: Day, somebody from Philly maybe.

880
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 6: Uh oh, you're talking about Jovon Hargrave.

881
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 4: Oh that guy.

882
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're talking like off season, just in general, Yeah,

883
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:23,919
Speaker 2: just a general. Then yeah, there's a couple more guys

884
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 2: in there as well.

885
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,320
Speaker 4: I'm pulling it up. Give me two seconds.

886
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, So they've they've acquired a starting defensive line

887
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 5: as supplemental defensive line.

888
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 3: Farrell or Clellan Farrell, whatever his name is, from Las Vegas,

889
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:41,439
Speaker 3: Chase Young, Javon Hargrave, Eric Armstead. That was a draft

890
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:47,280
Speaker 3: day Gregory Gregory, Sebastian Joseph Gregory.

891
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 5: Young as your d NS Okay, and Day and Hardgrave

892
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 5: as your d tackles.

893
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:54,280
Speaker 4: Correct, that's been acquired.

894
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,399
Speaker 2: I'm running for two hundred yards myself on that D line.

895
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's been acquired. That was added this year. It's over.

896
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,919
Speaker 4: That was a buffalo issue. Yeah added. That wasn't there

897
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:05,839
Speaker 4: on the roster last year.

898
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 2: You know what that makes me thinking? I was thinking

899
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 2: about this yesterday whenever it came down that he had

900
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 2: signed with forty nine ers. I wonder if they're there's

901
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,719
Speaker 2: not a lot of confidence in the group that they have,

902
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,360
Speaker 2: or if they just they just love having rotational guys

903
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:18,840
Speaker 2: and they want as many bodies as possible up front. Like,

904
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 2: I don't get it. I don't get why they need

905
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 2: to add so many more. I don't get it. How

906
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,880
Speaker 2: hurt they have? How does it hurt if you have

907
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 2: a guy like Sebastian Joseph Day that you can't put

908
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:29,280
Speaker 2: on the field in a starting situation.

909
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:30,280
Speaker 4: Isn't that a great situation?

910
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, but like it's that a.

911
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 6: Great I wons out the physical style they play usually

912
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,520
Speaker 6: by the end of this when you get into playoffs,

913
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 6: they are usually missing some guys because of that, you

914
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 6: know that they allot of people like to talk about

915
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 6: that physical style play, how it you know, how it

916
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 6: adds up for the opponents and how bad opponents play

917
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 6: the following week because of that. I think that they're

918
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 6: loading up because they're like, hey, if we need somebody else.

919
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 2: They probably are loading up. We're saying that they don't

920
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 2: have confidence, but yeah, it's.

921
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 5: Just I definitely don't think it's a confidence issue. I

922
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,879
Speaker 5: think it's more so about Hey, guess what, you're great?

923
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 5: You great, You're great? How about I just limit you

924
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 5: to fifteen plays a game? How great could you be?

925
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:10,359
Speaker 4: Then I wouldn't say I would not say that.

926
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:12,280
Speaker 6: I would not say that works for everyone.

927
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 2: Though not everybody.

928
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,840
Speaker 6: I think there's a lot of guys that elite of

929
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,279
Speaker 6: the elites. I think you need to leave them out there.

930
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,840
Speaker 5: So I agree, and Boast is not coming off the field,

931
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 5: But when he does, there's a young and a Gregory

932
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 5: that come in.

933
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 6: It's nice, it does sound nice and real.

934
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 4: It's wild. Yeah, a couple of guys like that.

935
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,760
Speaker 6: All is it Cleveland Cleveland? Cleveland Cleveland?

936
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:33,360
Speaker 2: I don't know.

937
00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 4: I don't either. I've never been able.

938
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 6: That was a very that was a very typical Detroit

939
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 6: Lions draft pick. When the Raiders took him where it

940
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 6: was like the whole like I think he took him

941
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 6: like four or something. It was real high. It was

942
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 6: just one of those whole back away, we know what

943
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,680
Speaker 6: we're doing. You're just like, yeah, but you're not really

944
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 6: the organization that is usually on the cutting edge and

945
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 6: this stuff you're sure about it. I want to say

946
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 6: it was it might have been John Gruden's first pick

947
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 6: when he took over his head. It was up there

948
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 6: because it was him and Mayak we're running that draft,

949
00:39:57,560 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 6: and I just remember when they when they took him

950
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 6: to everyone was just kind of that's kind of early there.

951
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:02,760
Speaker 5: I just I shook my head while I was watching

952
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,840
Speaker 5: that game the other night, the San Francisco versus Baltimore

953
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 5: and when Lamar Jackson had that intentional grounding in the

954
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 5: end zone. Who are the two guys that were chasing him?

955
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:16,279
Speaker 5: Young and Jos was it? I thought it was another guy,

956
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:17,279
Speaker 5: Boson Young.

957
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 4: I know he was Young because he was the one

958
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 4: they showed like running off the field. Yeah. And the ref,

959
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 4: I mean the ref got in the way to the

960
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 4: REFF definitely got in a way that was embarrassing. Yeah,

961
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 4: good talk.

962
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 6: The other one I wanted to bring up was just

963
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 6: because we visited this couple weeks ago, but it was

964
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 6: the whole NFC South. If the Cowboys don't win the division,

965
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 6: likely having to go on the road to play against

966
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 6: the NFC South. And I remember when we talked about

967
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 6: it a couple of weeks ago that was like, Oh,

968
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 6: I have all those teams, I think you'd most want

969
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 6: to play the Buccaneers, and I'm starting to think that

970
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 6: that isn't the one. And so I remember I said

971
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 6: the one that I thought was most hairble was the Buccaneers,

972
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 6: and that I thought the one that you wouldn't want

973
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 6: to go to is the super Dome. But now I'm

974
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:00,759
Speaker 6: thinking the Buccaneers might be the last one of those.

975
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 4: I might have said the same thing. I think New

976
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 4: Orleans was the better.

977
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 5: Was a team that I would much rather face, but

978
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,439
Speaker 5: not the environment that you want to go into.

979
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:13,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's that's my case as well, And

980
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 3: that's what it was, but now it's now I think

981
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 3: I would rather go to the Superdome than face a

982
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,720
Speaker 3: red hot Buccaneers offense.

983
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 4: This baker's been balling. You could joke about it as

984
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 4: much as you want. He's been balling. Uh who'd you

985
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 4: rather face, nick I?

986
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,799
Speaker 2: Falcons? Yeah, the Falcons, but they would they would need

987
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,240
Speaker 2: the Buccaneers to lose one. That Buccaneers control their own destiny.

988
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 2: If they went out, then they're in.

989
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 4: So isn't that nice to be an imposition?

990
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 2: It's also not I mean the Cowboys were in the playoffs.

991
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 4: I didn't say anything. I just did it's nice to

992
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 4: be in that position.

993
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's all the dig I saw the dig a

994
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 2: little bit. But yeah, I the Saints would need to

995
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,279
Speaker 2: win out. The Falcons would need to win out, and

996
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 2: they would hope that the Buccaneers drop one at some

997
00:41:58,239 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 2: point or drop two.

998
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 3: Actually, the Falcons have the Bears this week and the

999
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 3: Niners next week, or excuse me not the Niners the

1000
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,440
Speaker 3: Saints next week, so they could win out.

1001
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 4: Falcons could totally went out.

1002
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 3: The Buccaneers have the Saints this week and then they

1003
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:17,399
Speaker 3: have the where to go Oh, the Panthers next week,

1004
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:18,759
Speaker 3: so they can definitely went out too.

1005
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 2: Actually, the Buccaneers can lose to the Saints this week

1006
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 2: and still be okay. And still make the playoffs. So

1007
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 2: I guess they only really need one win to clinch

1008
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,359
Speaker 2: the NFC South. It's looking more and more likely that

1009
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,719
Speaker 2: that's going to be the four seed. So yeah, man,

1010
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:34,440
Speaker 2: it's interesting.

1011
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 4: Love that great one.

1012
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:40,879
Speaker 6: Other one was the Chiefs and their downfall. I still

1013
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 6: think they're in the mix. I still wouldn't count them out.

1014
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 6: And you guys feel like they're done.

1015
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 2: No, absolutely not, not as long as he's quarterback and

1016
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 2: young and healthy and yeah, with that coach, with that coach,

1017
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 2: it's they need a receiver so bad, they need like

1018
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 2: five receivers, actually so bad.

1019
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 3: Even their safety blanket that has been Travis Kelcey, and

1020
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 3: of people want to make the joke about Travis Kelcey

1021
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:03,360
Speaker 3: and it's Taylor Swift.

1022
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,359
Speaker 4: No, it's it's the fact that this is year ten

1023
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 4: in the league.

1024
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,239
Speaker 3: And he's played a physical brand of football forever and

1025
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 3: so at some point he's going to see a bit

1026
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:12,359
Speaker 3: of regression and bad.

1027
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 4: He said, what, he doesn't have a supporting cast. He

1028
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,040
Speaker 4: has zero around him.

1029
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 3: Zero, Like it's not even like a supporting cast. It's

1030
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 3: like if I would have showed up today and put

1031
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 3: on the mic and none of you guys would have

1032
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 3: showed up. That would have been the worst show of

1033
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:25,640
Speaker 3: all time because I can't do it all but time.

1034
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 5: I think that's another team that historically has not been

1035
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 5: aggressive in off season. I think that's going to change

1036
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:31,839
Speaker 5: for them this year.

1037
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 2: I think, well, I think they I think they move

1038
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 2: up to get a receiver in the first round, and

1039
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 2: I think they might even go try to pull a

1040
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:42,000
Speaker 2: receiver from somewhere, like honestly, like a Michael gallup in Casey.

1041
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 2: Who knows like that, that's hype Michael g type receiver

1042
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:46,839
Speaker 2: in Casey. That would be fun.

1043
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 6: So you guys don't think that. I'm not saying just

1044
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,400
Speaker 6: a Taylor Swift thing, but just his popularity with everything

1045
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 6: hasn't benefactor at all, distraction.

1046
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:59,480
Speaker 4: To a certain extent. So man, they're just not doing well.

1047
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:01,400
Speaker 6: He was to start the season two. He might not

1048
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 6: even be healthy. Yeah, remember he didn't even start this

1049
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 6: They when they played the Lions at the beginning the year.

1050
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 6: That was one thing else I was gonna say. It's

1051
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 6: about the difference between the Lions and the Cowboys. The

1052
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,720
Speaker 6: Lions like they're on everyone's happy because they're the direction

1053
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 6: they're heading. But like if you look at their schedule.

1054
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 6: If that was the Cowboys schedule, nobody would be sitting

1055
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:19,359
Speaker 6: here going yeah. But the Cowboys got that road win

1056
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,320
Speaker 6: against Kansas City to start the year because that was

1057
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,160
Speaker 6: a big kickoff to the season for the Lions. Where

1058
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 6: it's like they didn't have Chris Jones, they didn't have

1059
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,880
Speaker 6: Travis Kelcey. This isn't the chief scene you thought was.

1060
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 6: And then they've beaten the Bucks on the road. And

1061
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:32,439
Speaker 6: if the Cowboys had done that, I don't think we'd

1062
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 6: be sitting here going yeah.

1063
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:34,120
Speaker 4: I know.

1064
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 6: I understand they didn't beat the Bills or Dolphins, but

1065
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,319
Speaker 6: remember when they beat the Bucks, Like, I don't think

1066
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,319
Speaker 6: we would say they went in Tampa Bay and beat

1067
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:40,760
Speaker 6: the Bucks.

1068
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 4: What worries you most about Detroit's offense?

1069
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:49,680
Speaker 6: The run game is going and then they're just eating

1070
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:53,520
Speaker 6: clock and keeping Dallas' offense off the field. I think

1071
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,959
Speaker 6: that that would be the biggest one. And then Dallas

1072
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 6: has to play from behind, and then you got eight

1073
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 6: and Huches and pin his ears back and that kind

1074
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 6: of stuff. So I think that if the running game

1075
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:04,720
Speaker 6: got going, I think that would be the biggest concern.

1076
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 6: What about you you want to get you would love

1077
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:09,399
Speaker 6: to get in a high scoring game against this team.

1078
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:14,360
Speaker 5: I feel if you're the Cowboys, yeah, a shootout, yeah yeah,

1079
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 5: I worry about them just eating a clock, yeah, and

1080
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:18,759
Speaker 5: then playing a physical brand football on opposing So I

1081
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 5: mean they took out tight end for the You're worried.

1082
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 3: They buffalo you like James Cook And now it's Montgomery

1083
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,680
Speaker 3: and Gibbs and it's just boom boom, boom boom, down

1084
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 3: the field, down the field down, Yeah, because their style

1085
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 3: of offense, like they would They're okay running at seventy

1086
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 3: percent at the time, am throwing at thirty But they're

1087
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 3: okay with that now they are perfectly fine with that. Yeah,

1088
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:45,919
Speaker 3: and like that from that sense, how calm they are

1089
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:50,839
Speaker 3: in their operation, it's it leads me a little.

1090
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:55,360
Speaker 4: Little bubba gouddy, not bubble guppy, but bubble gouddy, you know. Yeah,

1091
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 4: you say that, and I agree with you. I think

1092
00:45:58,600 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 4: they do.

1093
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 3: They run the ball effectively, and whenever they've had Jared

1094
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 3: Goff held underneath thirty five attempts, they're undefeated. They are

1095
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,320
Speaker 3: six and zero whenever he's held under thirty five passing attempts.

1096
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,640
Speaker 4: So I mean a lot of that is cause I mean,

1097
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,400
Speaker 4: it's because you're playing from behind, you throw it a

1098
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 4: little bit more.

1099
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,839
Speaker 3: He's thrown it at least twenty five times in every

1100
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,719
Speaker 3: single game this year, all but three, he's thrown it

1101
00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:27,279
Speaker 3: at least thirty three times, and he has four games

1102
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 3: where he's had forty or more passing attempts. So they

1103
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 3: will throw it around like that's not out of the

1104
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 3: question either. They've thrown it forty times against Minnesota in

1105
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 3: a win, forty four times against Tampa Bay in a win,

1106
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,680
Speaker 3: forty four times against Green Bay and a tight loss,

1107
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:42,319
Speaker 3: and then he threw a fifty three times in a

1108
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 3: blowout game against Baltimore, so that one's kind of a loss.

1109
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 4: But they'll throw it around every would you say their

1110
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 4: approach was to Dallas last year?

1111
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 2: Offensively, I don't remember what half for dinner last night.

1112
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 4: I Saydah, do you remember where you were last night?

1113
00:46:56,200 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 2: I do, I do. Fortunately, gosh, do not remember that

1114
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 2: game at all?

1115
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:02,840
Speaker 4: Coming back, I'm getting to that game at all. I

1116
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 4: just remember the physicality. It was very, very physical.

1117
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 2: That is what I worry about when I look at

1118
00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 2: this game, is because you look at the teams that

1119
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,000
Speaker 2: have been on paper more physical than the Cowboys this year.

1120
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 2: They've given them issues even at home, Like there's been

1121
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,520
Speaker 2: a couple of instances where they've they've been given issues

1122
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 2: in Dallas.

1123
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 5: I feel like Dallas matched the physicality of this week

1124
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 5: in Miami.

1125
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:21,520
Speaker 4: I really feel that.

1126
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, but Miami I don't feel like has.

1127
00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:26,640
Speaker 4: Agreed agree terrible physicality agreed.

1128
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 5: But it's a it's a mentality thing, right, It's a

1129
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:33,399
Speaker 5: decision to enforce your will. So I told I'm not

1130
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 5: gonna argue with you on that one. Miami is not

1131
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,799
Speaker 5: detroit when it comes to physicality. But I like the

1132
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,439
Speaker 5: fact that they matched it right. Even though it wasn't

1133
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,439
Speaker 5: at that level, they still they didn't They didn't bow

1134
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 5: down or back down from it like they brought it right.

1135
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:48,759
Speaker 5: You talk about Millie Hooker like he brought it, you know,

1136
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 5: d Law, he brought it. Like those guys, they had

1137
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:52,600
Speaker 5: an attitude to them on that side of the ball.

1138
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,080
Speaker 6: But I think we would all have been surprised if

1139
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:57,000
Speaker 6: they didn't coming off that Buffalo game. The way they

1140
00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 6: played against Miami is exactly how expected because we have

1141
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 6: a long track record. Like when I talk about the Lions,

1142
00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:03,280
Speaker 6: it's a lot more of it is about this season

1143
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 6: the Cowboys. This is like a building off of we're

1144
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 6: a third season now of team making the playoffs, a

1145
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 6: good football team, and so because of that, it's just

1146
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 6: it's a little bit different of a thing where I

1147
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:15,319
Speaker 6: feel like you can count on like, well, they just

1148
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 6: played that game against buffal There's no way they're going

1149
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:19,920
Speaker 6: to show up this week playing that poorly. Their run defense,

1150
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:23,560
Speaker 6: no way, now, dan Quinn in this defense, they got

1151
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:24,799
Speaker 6: too much skins on the wall for that.

1152
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:25,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1153
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 3: Last year's game for Detroit, Jared Goff twenty one of

1154
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 3: twenty six passing, but he had two interceptions, no touchdowns.

1155
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,319
Speaker 3: They lost, of course, twenty four to six. Had the

1156
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:36,960
Speaker 3: two field goals in the first half and they were

1157
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:38,759
Speaker 3: shut out in the second half. Michael Parsons had a

1158
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 3: couple of sacks. Donovan Wilson had a sack. They were

1159
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 3: running is whether they were I mean, they were running

1160
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 3: away is what they were doing for sure, and that

1161
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:47,960
Speaker 3: was the game plan survived.

1162
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:49,680
Speaker 2: The difference too, is they had neither of those running

1163
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 2: backs that they're going to bring to the field on Saturday.

1164
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,440
Speaker 2: There's a lot of weapons on that offense that they did.

1165
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 2: James Williams, Samuel Porta. I mean it's a completely different look.

1166
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 4: Williams was there leading rusher last year. I forgot his

1167
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 4: first name, Jamal Williams. Jamal Williams was their leading.

1168
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:10,319
Speaker 5: Rusher fifteen seventy nine. To improve their offense this year,

1169
00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:13,879
Speaker 5: oh yeah, definitely, that's what those picks on them.

1170
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:17,399
Speaker 6: It is crazy, though, how much this Lions team has

1171
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 6: turned around. And I don't think enough is said about this.

1172
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 6: From the day that they traded TJ. Hockinson. It makes

1173
00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:27,360
Speaker 6: no sense because you're talking they trade Hockinson and they're

1174
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,759
Speaker 6: maybe like two one and six, two and six. They

1175
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,760
Speaker 6: look like you're just waving the white flag or whatever,

1176
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 6: and they went on this run after it happened, and

1177
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 6: it doesn't make any sense because he's obviously a good player.

1178
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 6: So I honestly, I don't understand it at all. But

1179
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,520
Speaker 6: they obviously that was That's what I'm saying, just a

1180
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 6: different team than they were when they played the Cowboys.

1181
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 3: Well, they were one and five after they lost to

1182
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,440
Speaker 3: the Cowboys last year. They lost the week after that

1183
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 3: to the Dolphins, and then since then they've absolutely taken

1184
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 3: off and they've won I mean most of their game

1185
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,600
Speaker 3: since then, after losing to Miami, they won all but

1186
00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:57,879
Speaker 3: two of their remaining games.

1187
00:49:57,920 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 4: So what is that.

1188
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:00,920
Speaker 3: That's eight and two down the stretch, and then of

1189
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 3: course they're eleven and four this year, eleven fours. That's

1190
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 3: an incredible season. It's incredible season. It'll be a fun

1191
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 3: one to see on Saturdays.

1192
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:09,640
Speaker 4: That tied for the best in the league.

1193
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:14,239
Speaker 3: Right now, who is Baltimore's twelve and three? Okay, yeah,

1194
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:16,680
Speaker 3: best in the NFC. It's tied for best in the NFC.

1195
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 6: And they've got a chance, they've got play Baltimore. Man,

1196
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:22,799
Speaker 6: that was not even I mean, that was embarrassing, Like

1197
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,440
Speaker 6: the Liones were destroyed by Baltimore. It was during the

1198
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:29,319
Speaker 6: Cowboys bye week, and that Baltimore did the same thing

1199
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,359
Speaker 6: they did in San Francisco, where you just look at them,

1200
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,719
Speaker 6: you're like, man, maybe this is by far the best

1201
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:34,359
Speaker 6: team in the league.

1202
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, thirty eight to six was that final score. It

1203
00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:37,960
Speaker 3: was in Baltimore.

1204
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:39,920
Speaker 2: It's a noon game. I remember it was just bloody

1205
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 2: for at the very beginning.

1206
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, all right, that's it for us today here

1207
00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:45,040
Speaker 3: on talking Cowboys.

1208

1209
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 3: We'll take a look at the offensive preview for the

1210
00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:51,400
Speaker 3: Cowboys offense going up against the Detroit defense. Can the

1211
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:54,600
Speaker 3: Detroit defense match the physicality of what their offense will

1212
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 3: bring to the table on Saturday for Chris be Isaiah

1213
