Trying to get 71 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: that trophy. I don't care about nominations, I know, right, 72 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: we want the trophies. Trying to get that trophy. And 73 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 1: and the bad part about it is we all got 74 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: to work that weekend in Atlanta, so there's a good 75 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: chance that we won't even be able to be there 76 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: to accept our own awards. We'll have to kind of 77 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: do it from Atlanta. Can post your trophy from the 78 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: Graham later in the week. It doesn't matter when you 79 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: get it. It's fine. Yeah, So we'll figure it all out, 80 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: all right. We appreciate you guys joining let's talk some 81 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: Cowboys football. Let's first start with injuries. Yesterday, a few 82 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: things that popped up on the injury report there were 83 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: a little different than Thursday. Tyren Smith did not practice yesterday. 84 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: He was limited the day before. Anthony Brown popped up 85 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 1: on the injury report as a limited participant in practice 86 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: with an injury. So let's start with some of the 87 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: guys based upon the list. I'm gonna throw out a 88 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: few names, and I want you guys to tell me 89 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: what you're thinking and what you're hearing about them and 90 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: the likelihood have been playing. Let's start first with Tyren Smith, 91 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: who did not practice yesterday. I think that's becoming a 92 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: big issue here. We'll find out today how much he 93 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: does because if he misses another day of practice here, 94 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: I think you're starting to say that this is going 95 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: to be a setback. But if they're just figuring out 96 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: ways to man and into this back injury that they've 97 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 1: they've known about for a while, he kind of dealt 98 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: with the training camp. They're just going to figure out 99 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: ways to manage it. Then this is, I think Dave 100 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: said yesterday, is something he's going to deal with probably 101 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: for a long time. But The goal, obviously is to 102 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 1: get him ready for Sunday, and this is kind of 103 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: the way to do that. So I think if he 104 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: doesn't practice today, I think it'll be a little bit 105 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: more telling of how serious this is. If he can 106 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: do something be limited, then he'll probably be out there, 107 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 1: but only time will tell how effective that will be. 108 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: He'll probably have to take like a shot or something. Yeah, 109 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: I think day I'm not worried that he's not going 110 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 1: to play. Do you think he's playing? Yeah, I don't. 111 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: I think that likes This isn't as far as I 112 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: understand it, This isn't disc related and I don't think 113 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: he can make it worse by playing. So he's an 114 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 1: all pro. I think they'll find a way to get 115 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: him ready and then he's got a week off after 116 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: this to get right. So I could be wrong, but 117 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 1: I am leaning toward thinking he'll be there all right. 118 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,799 Speaker 1: Let's move on to Anthony Brown. Anthony Brown was limited 119 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: participant yesterday in practice. He's first first time he's popped 120 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: up on the injury for this week. What are you 121 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: hearing and what do you think's gonna happen? Not? I 122 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: just want to know why these guys keep getting hurt 123 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: in practice. Yeah, it's three doing It's three in a week. 124 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: It happens every Thursday. It seems like they're not on 125 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: it on a Wednesday, but then Thursday they pop up. 126 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, but but those guys, I guess Chas 127 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 1: Green did not play no Byron Jones a few weeks 128 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: ago did And I would imagine Anthony Brown will play 129 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: through this. But if not, you know, you have some 130 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 1: you have a little bit of depth at corner. You 131 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: can figure something out. But I would imagine that he's 132 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 1: still gonna be able to do something in play. I agree. Okay, um, 133 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: let's talk about Shaun Lee. He has not practiced all week, 134 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: did not play last week. You thinking he's out now, Dave, 135 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: I do why? Because this, like this is an injury 136 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: that can't get worse if you try to play on 137 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: it too soon. Hamstring hamstring, And you've got a bye 138 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: week coming up, so he's got a chance to be 139 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: to rest for three weeks and then hopefully this won't 140 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: be an issue as opposed to force him out on 141 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: the field and you get a quarter out of him 142 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: and then it's worse and you don't have him until Thanksgiving. 143 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: I could be and you know, again, never rule you 144 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: should never rule out an All Pro player until he's 145 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,679 Speaker 1: officially ruled out. Those guys have remarkable ways of getting ready. 146 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: But he hasn't done anything in two weeks football wise, 147 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: and it's just I just don't have a lot of optimism. 148 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: And honestly, I think it would be smart to give 149 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: him that extra time, especially with the bye week. So 150 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: I'm your agreeting, is it? I think? Yeah, I definitely 151 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: agree that it's not looking good because for him, he's 152 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: the guy that he needs to practice. You know. Now, 153 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: he's one player who could go out without practicing and 154 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: would be pretty effective because just all the preparation he does, 155 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: but he can't really tell him that he knows that 156 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: he needs to prepare a certain way. And the fact 157 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: he hasn't been able to practice now for almost two 158 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: full weeks, I don't think he would even be comfortable 159 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: going out and playing in a game like this. Now. Again, 160 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: I hate to say it, like let's see what happens today, 161 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: but I mean, if he does something today that shows 162 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: some progress, but if if he's another DNP just did 163 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: not practice, then there's no way he could play. I 164 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't think he would want to play this game, and 165 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys would want him to with a buy coming 166 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: up in a chance to get his hamstring fully healthy. 167 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: Also keep in mind, I do feel pretty confident thanthy 168 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 1: Hintians is going to play this game. So that gives 169 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: you numbers, and it gives you one of your starters backs. 170 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 1: He's been a full participant in practice all week, so 171 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: that certainly does look good for him. I think he's 172 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: gonna play. You know, that doesn't mean they're not gonna 173 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: miss Sean Lee, but actually he's been practicing it will 174 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: He's been playing week side, you know, getting him ready 175 00:08:54,400 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: for dude, that's throughout during training camp. He's the starting mic. Yeah, 176 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: he's been playing well because Sean can't, And so I 177 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: think it would be him and Jalen and Jalen and 178 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: Durant would probably rotate the way they did at the 179 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: start of the year. You know, Anthony Hitchins doesn't Sean Lee. 180 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: I think he would even say that. But that should 181 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: help you a little bit. I don't know that you 182 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: look as bad at linebackers you did last week. If 183 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: he's in there, you think they'd have him in at 184 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: a Nickel give him a full load most definitely. I mean, 185 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: like this is you know, it's kind of similar to 186 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: the tyring Lee thing, Like I don't think this is 187 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: an injury that's gonna get worse. I mean, he's he's 188 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: good to go. That that fractures healed. It's not a 189 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: muscular or soft tissue thing. So if he can play 190 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 1: a figure, he can probably carry a full load, all right. 191 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: One other guy wanted to throw out there, Stephen Paya. 192 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: Although he's been missing, he's miss practice quite a bit 193 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: during this the first four weeks of the season, he 194 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: still has managed to play. Do you ever get to 195 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: a point where you start to wonder, like is this 196 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: serious enough where really they need to sit him down? Yeah? Yeah, 197 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 1: I've been wondering that. That's I mean not even Tony 198 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: Romo took full weeks off of practice multiple weeks in 199 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: a row. Um, it's weird he keeps playing. I would 200 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: argue he probably hasn't been as effective. He certainly hasn't 201 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: looked as effective as he did at training can rum. 202 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: But it's one of those things where do you manage 203 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: it and play at kind of like DeMarcus Lawrence last year. 204 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: Do you manage it and play at sixty percent, or 205 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: do you sit down and not have one of your 206 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 1: starting caliber guys for a prolonged period of time. Um. 207 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: I heard somebody suggest maybe Ui rhm and bring him back. 208 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: But then Charles Tapper broke his foot this week, So 209 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 1: that's that hurts. That hinders your ability to bring guys 210 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: back from my arc bec as you get too So 211 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 1: he might be one of those you think Taper. I 212 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 1: don't think Tapper's coming back? Well, okay, and that's the case, 213 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: and um Gathers probably isn't either. Yeah, maybe I don't 214 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:57,359 Speaker 1: even know what to make of that, but um, regardless 215 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: either and even all right, even if you're not doing 216 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: the math on bringing him back, you're still he's gone 217 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: for eight weeks, So he's gone until what December? Yeah, 218 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: So Amber, with David Irving coming back this week, would 219 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: you consider the possibility of making David Irving you're starting 220 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: defensive tackle and and that gives you more flexibility to 221 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 1: make the decision than maybe you want to sit Paia 222 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 1: for a week, knowing that you have an extra week 223 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 1: there with the bye well Horn, could you guys refresh 224 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: my memory? Is this the first time that Paya misses 225 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: practice more than once, Yes, during one week ing the 226 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: same week. I think this is the third time he 227 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: I was gonna say that I thought that happened last week. 228 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: It's either a second or well, I know he's missed yeah, yeah, yeah, 229 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: But is this the first time that I thought last 230 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: week he missed multiple? Did he not? I remember fairly, 231 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: I'm fairly confident that he has not practiced since like 232 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: week two or three, at least at all at all. Wow, really, 233 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know he's been on the 234 00:11:55,120 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: injury report weeks now. So yeah, but back to your question, Uh, yeah, 235 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: I think having David Irving back it's gonna be great. 236 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: And I was talking to Malie Collins the other day 237 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: and you should have seen his smile. As soon as 238 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 1: I mentioned David Irvin's name, he gave me the biggest 239 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: smile ever and was so excited to have him back 240 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: on the line. And he was just telling me how 241 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: much of a big help he is, not only I 242 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: mean to everyone, not just in what he does for 243 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: himself specifically, but whatever he does also helps everyone else 244 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: on the line. So I think it'll be good to 245 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 1: have him as a starting guy, and that that may 246 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: give them the flexibility they need to if they want 247 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 1: to sit Pie for a week and give him two 248 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: weeks essentially, I could give him some opportunities there. Cardinals 249 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: game two weeks ago, did not practice, did not practice, 250 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: did not practice questionable, and then played right. And then 251 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: against the Rams, did not practice, did not practice limited 252 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: and then played. So he had multiple practice, multiple weeks 253 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: of not practicing through the week twice so far, and 254 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 1: I guess this week will be three times that he's 255 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: had multiple days of not practicing. So he's played those 256 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 1: other two games. We'll see. But then again, they didn't 257 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: have again, they didn't have Irving at that point. Now 258 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: having Irving will it'll be interesting to see if they 259 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: feel like they have some flexibility now that Irving's back. 260 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: It'll definitely be good for him because he hasn't again 261 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: he has they haven't had enough guys for Paia to 262 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: even take a little break and sit down, you know, 263 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: So it'll be good for them and just put Irving back. 264 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: He's healthy, he's been training, he's been staying in shape, 265 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: so that's to me, that would be the smartest idea. 266 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,119 Speaker 1: All right, great, let's move on. Let's talk about inactives. 267 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: I think we could probably all agree that Cooper Rush 268 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: Darren McFadden are two guys that will be inactive. Let's 269 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: start going through the list of the other guys that 270 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: we think could be. Shan Lee. I know, Dave you 271 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: said you think he's down. Do you guys agree that 272 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: Sean Lee's down? Yeah? I mean, haven't seen anything yet 273 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: to suggest that he's not. Okay, Amber, Yeah, okay, good. 274 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: At three, let's talk about the cornerback position. Ben Abin 275 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: Wickery has been playing. There are two guys that have 276 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: not been playing in Cheetah Woozier and Nolan Carroll. How 277 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: many of those guys you think will be up this week? 278 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: So I guess let me flip that question. How many 279 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:18,839 Speaker 1: of those guys you think are down this week? And 280 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: who do you think it'll be? Because I don't think 281 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: they'll have all three active, I think we can go 282 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: with Ben a Yeah, I've seen we thought he was 283 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 1: going to get cut before the TAP's guy, Nick, Why 284 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: you've been talking about him? Time put him in? Do 285 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: something with him? Well, just I said that when you 286 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: have four corners and two of them have never played, 287 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: and one of us heard, and then you end up. 288 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: You know, do you have a fifth guy there? But 289 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: in this case, now you've got everyone seemingly back, He's 290 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: an easy choice for to be an active I'm trying 291 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: to get that draft pick back. Do you wonder a 292 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: little bit about Carol from last week, because it seemed 293 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: like the way things are going last week that maybe 294 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: he had a shot of playing last week and was 295 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: a was a scratch. Do you think that maybe that 296 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: there was more to that than just d injury. Maybe 297 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: they just made a decision that he wasn't the guy 298 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: they wanted to have up. Um, I don't think so. Uh. 299 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: And listening to Garrett yesterday, he made it sound like 300 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: that they're gonna all play and all of them, Yeah, 301 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: And he made it sound like he didn't want to 302 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: say who's gonna return to the starting lineup, Brown or Carol, 303 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: But he said we're gonna, you know, we're gonna need 304 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: all of them. So I don't I think that Carol 305 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: does come back this week? Okay, so you think benabian 306 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: wickery is down? So now we're at four. The way 307 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: Cheeto was running around the locker room the other day, 308 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: he certainly doesn't looked like his hand father and him right, 309 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: all right, so let's four down. What do you think 310 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: about Noah Brown wide receiver, sixth wide receiver they were 311 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: using him. I mean, he gets out there a little bit. 312 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know if it's if it's smart 313 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: to have six receivers active, But when you have all 314 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: these specialty guys that only do a certain kind of things, 315 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: you know, and I think he does play special team, 316 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: I mean he does. He runs down and does something 317 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: special teams, so you don't you have the guys that 318 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: don't do that. Bryce doesn't do that, and Beasley doesn't 319 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: do that. So you're having your third and fourth receivers 320 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: that don't play special teams. You kind of need that spot, 321 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: you know. And Switzer is kind of he's kind of 322 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: got his own role. Well can we throw Jonathan Cooper 323 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: on there? Yeah? And I guess that's where we're at 324 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: right now. We got four guys. We feel pretty certain 325 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: that there are four spots that will be down. You're 326 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: kind of working for those other three spots between guys 327 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: like Stephen Paia, maybe Chaz Green, maybe Cooper, maybe Taco 328 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: possibly a guy like a Noah Brown if you want 329 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: to get really crazy, maybe a Cavon phrase like, there 330 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: are there are those kind of guys that you have 331 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: to kind of start thinking about it. But you've got 332 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: three spots. So who are those three guys you think 333 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: that possibly end up being down this week? Well, i'm 334 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: I'm I think Cooper needs to sit. If Chaz Green 335 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: is full, he's he's I think he's your better starting 336 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: left guard. I know Aaron Donald wasn't a great matchup 337 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: for anybody, but I also with with Tyrn Smith having 338 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: back and back problems, Byron Bell can't sit. Um, Cooper's 339 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 1: the least versatile of all of those kind of in 340 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: between offensive linemen as far as I'm concerned. Joe Looney 341 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: can play center and guard if something were to happen 342 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: at Chazz And if I mean, if chadz is practicing 343 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 1: full all week, which he is, then I would assume 344 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 1: he can play. So you know, it's not a knock 345 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: against Cooper though it doesn't. But if I mean, if 346 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 1: he's full, then he should play. And if he gets hurt, 347 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: then you've got Joe Looney. Yeah, that's my point. Um, 348 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: I think I would try to go eight offensive linemen 349 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: this week if I could. I think that would be 350 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: my lad. I think I would go Noah Brown down 351 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: before I would I would sit eight. I mean I would, 352 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: I would dress eight offensive linemen this game. I think 353 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: we've been saying that though at least I know you 354 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: and me, I know you think all differently. I mean, 355 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 1: I love knowing him, but again we keep saying that 356 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: and talking about setting him out or making him inactive. 357 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: But the Cowboys aren't. I mean, we haven't seen them 358 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 1: do that. They seem like they would. They've also, I mean, 359 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: I think it's it's because they've had so many injuries 360 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: that they could they could basically keep some guys active 361 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: that but for injury, would probably be inactive. And I 362 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: think Noah Brown's one of those. Now that you're starting 363 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 1: to clear up your injury reports, some I think it's 364 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: going to have to be some hard decisions, and I 365 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: do think Noah Brown kind of falls in that category. Yeah, 366 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: I think he's a nice to have. I don't think 367 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: he's a necessary right, and that's usually the guys that 368 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: didn't know being inactive. You know what you think about 369 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 1: it when you lose two linebackers like they did with 370 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: Hitchens and Sean Lee and get down to four active 371 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 1: guys most teams would have gone to the waiver wire 372 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 1: or somewhere and picked up a linebacker, which would have 373 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: cut a position like that with Noah Brown, so he 374 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: was fortunate, like you said, to be active in getting 375 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: you know. But but they've only had four active linebackers. 376 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: When Hitchings comes back, they'll have five active linebackers, and 377 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: when Lee comes back, they might have six. Right, So 378 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: something's got to give somewhere, you know. And you talk 379 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,360 Speaker 1: about those special team spots, maybe that's one of those 380 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: special team spots. And that does I think when you 381 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: start talking about guys that can come back and play 382 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,719 Speaker 1: special teams, that affects even a guy like Cavon Frazier, 383 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: who I think his best asset that he's given to 384 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: this team right now is in special teams and that's 385 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: been a little shaky at times. So and also he's 386 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: a guy that becomes a little bit expended a little bit. 387 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: And also with the fact that you know, we're starting 388 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: to hear a little bit that Cheetos doing some things 389 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,959 Speaker 1: some at safety, like like we had anticipated when they 390 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: drafted him. That that's the versatility that he has, so 391 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: he can do some things safety standpoint you know, Xavier 392 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: Woods is starting to earn a little more playing time 393 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: and he's versatile, right right, so he can kind of 394 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: drop down a little bit, so that they look at 395 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: this probably differently than we do because of what Xavier 396 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 1: Woods and Cheeto what they could do and say, you know, 397 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: we might they might sit two corners if they wanted to. 398 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: I just don't know who they would be. Well, that 399 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: was kind of the reason why I was getting to 400 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 1: Carol because I think if if Cheeto's back, they do 401 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: have a little flexibility to decide which way they want 402 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: to go. And then remember the last time we saw Carol, 403 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: it wasn't that good. I mean when he played against 404 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 1: Denver in that first part of the game, most of 405 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: the first half, I mean he was he was having 406 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: some struggles out there. So I just think that's something 407 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: worth considering. But the Packers really don't throw the ball 408 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: that well their receivers and quarterbacks, so that doesn't matter 409 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: matchup for him. Yeah, so is let's let's talk tackle Charlton. 410 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: Any chance that tackle ends up being nadd man out 411 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: this week, I would have I would have absolutely said 412 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: that he will probably be inactive. But y'all are talking 413 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: me into sitting down Stephen Paia, which that would be 414 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: nice for him because it gives him away onto the field. 415 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 1: So your your bet would be Paya. And who are 416 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: the other two? You still need two more? Did we? 417 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: Did we rule Noah Brown inactive? Well? Yeah, I'm asking you. 418 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: So you're saying, Noah Brown, Paia? Who else? Who's your third? Carol? Carol? 419 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: You would sit Carol harn't been a whatever. I mean 420 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 1: one of those two probably been a because you can 421 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: save yourself a draft pick and because you paid Carrol 422 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,919 Speaker 1: three million dollars. But I don't have a ton of 423 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: confidence in no one. Carroll. All right? Nick, who are 424 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: your three from that whole group? Um, I would say 425 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: Noah Brown, I'm gonna sit him down. I'm gonna sit Tapper. 426 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 1: I mean not Tapper, I mean Tacco. Tacco say wow, 427 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: Tacos novel idea. Nick, Yeah, said, I got us on. 428 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 1: It works Taco is what I'm say. Uh, they're both 429 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: the same. They haven't really done anything, and they probably 430 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 1: won't this year. But Tacco has a little bit more 431 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: of a chance now. Um he I'm gonna sit him 432 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: for this game. And then I probably would sit Frazier 433 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: do you keep ye. Yeah, yeah, they're I think they're 434 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,479 Speaker 1: just managing him to play these games. He's probably not 435 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: as effective they are. They definitely are. I mean they've 436 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 1: been saying that, but who you're a defensive lineman now, 437 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: But that's what I'm saying, Well, you get now you 438 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 1: have with Irving back, you have Price Irving, and you 439 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: have a Malik, so you really can't have a three 440 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: man rotation without him in the lineup, which they didn't 441 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: have that flexibility before. I don't know if they'll do this, 442 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 1: but I would totally sit Paya and let again. You 443 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: get a bye week after this, so he's got two 444 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: weeks where he doesn't have to play. Right, It's probably 445 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: not gonna make the injury go away, but at least 446 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 1: it'll feel better. Yeah, and if something happens, you always 447 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,880 Speaker 1: still have Crawford you can drop down. So I think 448 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: with three guys in the rotation at defensive tackle and 449 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: another guy that can jump in there if you need 450 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 1: him to, and Taco can play there at times. For 451 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 1: a millionth time, maybe they should try Taco at tackle 452 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: because the end is not it's not awesome so far, 453 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: so well, we just gotta I think people have to 454 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: stay patient with that one, because I mean, you do 455 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: you said even during the draft show, I remember hearing 456 00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: you guys say, this is gonna be a guy that's 457 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: not a ready made You know, I'm not closing the 458 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: book on Taco by any stretch of the imagination. But 459 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: if you could move him to tackle and see if 460 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: he can give you something there might as well. It's 461 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: a long season, it's a long career. Like he doesn't 462 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: have to be a right in exclusively for the rest 463 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: of his career, right Amber, Who are you three? Um? 464 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: I would go with Noah Brown Pie. Yeah, and then 465 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: I would choose to see the Carol and put Benny 466 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: out there. And I don't care about the money. I just, 467 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: first of all, yeah, not my pocket, but I just 468 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: I don't like what I've seen from Carol. I would 469 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: like to see if Bennett could do any better. Yeah, 470 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: So those would be mine.

Last thing is you know all right, 540 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 1: I'm gonna want to talk college basketball, like you know 541 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: how Roy Williams does it call the time out and 542 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: he goes straight through with the clock is taken. He 543 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: doesn't stop for the defense to set itself. Um, this 544 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,959 Speaker 1: cook core leads to too many dream at the end 545 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: when in a playoffs great game, when Dak closed the 546 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: ball the first down, he he stopped the clock. And 547 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: last week he stopped the clock. He killed the downs 548 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 1: for us. And it wouldn't it be better if they 549 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 1: had something in their hip pocket him and Dance to 550 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: get something out of that first down, in and out 551 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: instead of just clocking it taking a shot because clusing 552 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: that down, I'm really killed the secured us from a 553 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: playoff game. And Terry kicked that ball and he killed 554 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: us last week, but really optimistic. I love you, treaking 555 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: me to last to this Friday. The baby latist manow Right, 556 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 1: Thanks for the call. I picked my mood up. Can 557 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: you just tell me him? What was the last thing 558 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: he said? I think it was in Spanish. What did 559 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: he say? Did you're here? Right at the end? I couldn't. 560 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 1: I couldn't understand what he said. Well, he's very knowledgeable 561 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 1: of the shows, and of all the shows. I mean 562 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: just just the Tommy John reference and the Joe from 563 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: flower Mouth. He's watches all the shows. I agree with them. 564 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: One hund about the clock in the ball um. I 565 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 1: said it to Rob or somebody on the field, I said, everybody, Yeah, 566 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: I thought it was the people in the first row 567 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: heard you. I don't think it was that big a deal. 568 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think I was like that upset 569 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: about it. But I just kind of was like, hmm 570 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: about that. I even thought about that Packers game. Now, 571 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: it might have been Dave sitting next to me, and 572 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: I was like, I don't, I don't know about that. 573 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: Because of that very reason. You're trying to go get 574 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: a touchdown. All you need is to be around the 575 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: twenty yard line, and so you can throw it into 576 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: the end zone. You need to get where the Buccaneers 577 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: got last week, I mean last night, to throw it 578 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: into the end zone, and so you need all the 579 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,719 Speaker 1: downs you can get. And I agree with that. And 580 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: if they need to come up with something on that situation, 581 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: some kind of quick out back shoulder fade, and that's 582 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: a perfect time for a back shoulder fade. You don't 583 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: have to be get the goal line to throw that. 584 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 1: Sell it like you're going deep, which is something you 585 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: can't do at the goal line. Sell it like you're 586 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: going deep. Throw it back shoulder fade, try to get eight, nine, 587 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: ten yards to get a bounce. I don't disagree, but 588 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's very hindsight as twenty twenty especially, 589 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 1: you know, as great as he was last year and 590 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: as good as he is and as great as he 591 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: can be, Deck's still a young quarterback. He's twenty four. 592 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: He's that what was his twentieth start or something like that. 593 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: I mean, this isn't you know, even Jamis Winston's in 594 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: his this is third or fourth season in the league. Yeah, 595 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,479 Speaker 1: something like that. I don't know. And then you know, 596 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: obviously you know, the Aaron Rodgers is of the world 597 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 1: can obviously pull that off. Tony Romo had fourteen years 598 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: of experience under his belt by the time he retired, 599 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: so he'll he'll get there. That's you know, if if 600 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: you want your second year starter to spike the ball, 601 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: to get the best play call in mind and just 602 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: figure everything out, it doesn't bother me. I think ideally 603 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 1: you would handle it differently and maximize your opportunities to 604 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: move the ball. But all of that considered, I'm not 605 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,239 Speaker 1: going to kill them for that. I think he's I 606 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: think Deck's boiled a bunch of people because he played 607 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: so well in his rookie year. I think people forget 608 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: he's just in his second year and the maturation it 609 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: still has to happen in order for him to become 610 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: an elite quarterback. Well, that's it's still vast. That's what 611 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: made this That's what made the storylines all offseason so interesting. 612 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: Is how are you going to follow that up? Yeah? Um, 613 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: and unless you're elite, it's hard to follow that up. 614 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: He is a victim of his own success. No, I 615 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: do not feel sorry for him. He was awesome last 616 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: year and that's you know, you set that standard for yourself. 617 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: He has high expectations for himself. I don't think he's 618 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: moping about it. He made a funny joke the other 619 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: day where he was like, you know, somebody was like, 620 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: did your phone blow up because you escape from Aaron Donald? 621 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: And he was like, no, nobody loves you when you lose. 622 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: Like you don't get any text messages when you lose. 623 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: That's the way it works. Yeah, I've been saying that 624 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: all week. It comes with the dinner, like, expectations are high. 625 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: Nobody feels sorry for you when you don't meet him. Obviously, 626 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: I do think he's a victim of his own success, 627 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: but that's that's part of being the starting quarterback for 628 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Feel sorry for Nuke Folk? Oh wow a 629 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: little bit? Yeah, I mean why because that sucks. Like 630 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: that's on him. He can control that. At the end 631 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: of the day, He's still a person, and I'm sure 632 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 1: he feels terrible about it. Like, yeah, yeah, he absolutely does. 633 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: I'm not disputing that. But but you gotta do your job. 634 00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 1: I mean, when you're a kicker, you got one job. 635 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 1: If I don't do my job and I get fired, 636 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: you can still put all the blame on me and 637 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: still feel sorry for me because I'm going through some 638 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: rough things. I'm losing my job. I gotta you know, 639 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: I got all this stuff to figure out. I probably 640 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 1: don't feel very good about it. Yes, okay, so let 641 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: me let me rephrase that as a human being, I 642 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: feel sorry for him that he's not doing job well 643 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: as a kicker. But as a kicker, you gotta do 644 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: your job. Like you were saying about the quarterback, you 645 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: just gotta do your job. It's part of it comes 646 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 1: with the with the mill. You know, when when I 647 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 1: was when back in like the eighties, when I was 648 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 1: still you know, watching young Cowboy fan and Joe thiseman 649 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: got in the booth like he's horrible, like not like 650 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: Joe thisman mainly because he was just the quarterback of 651 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: the Red Skins. It doesn't matter if he was good, 652 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: Phil Sims, no one liked him because you didn't really 653 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 1: like him as a quarterback. So if you don't really 654 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: like the Cowboys and didn't like Tony Romo, then you 655 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 1: probably don't like Tony Romo as the announcer. But if 656 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 1: you watch the last night, the last drive of the game, 657 00:32:56,200 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 1: like you can see exactly what a quarterback is thinking there, 658 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: And I thought it was brilliance. I mean, I thought 659 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: him saying, okay, they're they're fine, They're fine, They're gonna 660 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 1: spike you with three seconds to go, and it was 661 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 1: already twelve and by the time Winston finally got it 662 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 1: down his three seconds exactly. You know, he's sitting there 663 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: calling everything. You just you got into the mindset of 664 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: a quarterback in the two minute drill, which was something 665 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 1: that Tony did very well. That was something he was 666 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: really good at. It was probably the best time the 667 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator was calling plays when he was there, because 668 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: he was the offensive coordinator, And I just thought it 669 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 1: was amazing. Now, if you don't like Tony and all that, 670 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: then you're probably gonna be like, dah, this guy he 671 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: talks too much and he tries to be too smart 672 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,719 Speaker 1: and all that. But I thought it was great last night, 673 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 1: that last drive of the game. Did you see that? Yeah? 674 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: I mean, to be honestly, I think the whole game. 675 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: I love listening to here. Yeah. He's really good to 676 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: take because it again, you're what I like about it 677 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 1: is he takes you inside the game and gives you opinions, 678 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: and I don't think everybody does this well. Gives you 679 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: opinions that you wouldn't know otherwise about what's happening on 680 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: the field in the huddle as there, what the quarterback seeing, 681 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: and what he's thinking, you know, those are kind of things. 682 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: I think that's an extra dimension to him being a commentator. 683 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 1: I thought the two minute drill stuff was fantastic. I 684 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: think his obvious his expertise is amazing, and he definitely 685 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: teaches you stuff about the game. I think he probably 686 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: needs to learn not to like step all over the 687 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 1: rest of the broadcast because he and I think he 688 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: just gets so excited like that's experienced. Though. I think 689 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: he likes what he's doing and it's fun, but he 690 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:28,720 Speaker 1: can kind of dominate it at times where he doesn't 691 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: need to. And what was the other thing I was 692 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: going to say, Oh, I get that. It's really impressive. 693 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: I'm not saying I could do it like I don't 694 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 1: need you to predict every play well, and not only 695 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: like he's wrong sometimes he kept doing it. On the 696 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 1: last drive last night for the Patriots, he was like, 697 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 1: all right, they're gonna motion a guy. This is going 698 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: to be a screen and then Brady took a shot downfield, 699 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: and I was like, all right, you're not always right, 700 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,360 Speaker 1: and honestly, I don't care that you know what's coming. 701 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 1: I want you to explain why they did it after 702 00:34:56,400 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 1: it's over, right, or explain why you think this is 703 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: this would be a good play right here, because not 704 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: necessarily as a here I'm predicting the play. Let's play 705 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: predict the play, right, I get what you're saying, so 706 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 1: right when the snap's going on, right to be talking 707 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 1: over it like that, I mean, just like at a 708 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: time out. All right's third and seven. What are you 709 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 1: thinking here? I think you know, say it there. That's great, 710 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: but not like based off what he sees and you know, 711 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 1: and he's considering that he's a month into the job, though, 712 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,839 Speaker 1: I think he's fantastic. Yeah, he'll learn a lot over 713 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: this season. He will get better. NANCE did kind of 714 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 1: call him out on one because there was like a holding. 715 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,759 Speaker 1: Looked like there's a flag on a punt return, which 716 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 1: is always coming back, but in this case, it was 717 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: a It was a call on the kicking team, and 718 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,879 Speaker 1: Brady goes up to the ref and Brady's pointing this way, 719 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: you know, So then Tony's like, you know what I'm 720 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,720 Speaker 1: gonna say. This is gonna be against the bait, against 721 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 1: the Bucks. And Jim Nance was like, you know, I 722 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: see that too, Tony. I can see Brady, You're not 723 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,840 Speaker 1: that smart. If I was not that smart, Nance in 724 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,720 Speaker 1: week one was probably like this is incredible. He predicts everything, 725 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: and by week five he's like all right, all right, Tony, cool, 726 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: thank you. Let me write this down predicting what so 727 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,919 Speaker 1: what's going to happen here? Yeah, all right, let's let's 728 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: get to some more questions. We got a call from 729 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: Isaac and Houston. Isaac, what up, Hey guys, good morning. 730 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 1: I just wanted to talk about Zeke for a moment. Obviously, 731 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 1: you know, with this whole legal case surrounding him, it's 732 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: easy for US fans just a few players as you 733 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 1: know NFL Madden character. But if you think about it 734 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 1: from obviously, he's a human being who deals with this 735 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,359 Speaker 1: legal situation outside of his regular work schedule, which is 736 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: probably insane. That being said, his performance over the past 737 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: you know, four weeks has obviously been a lot lower 738 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: than it was last year based upon simply performance, not 739 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: necessarily you know, Zeke's reputation, etc. Would it be a 740 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 1: fair argument to say that it might have been and 741 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 1: almost better to simply have Zeke serve his his suspension 742 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: right at the beginning of the season versus drag on. 743 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: Now he's you know, it's impacted him at least it 744 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: looks like it's impacted him throughout this part of the 745 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: season so far. So I'll hang up and less of 746 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: the answer. Hey, Isaac, Isaac, real quick before you go, 747 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: So are you are you asserting that you think that 748 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,240 Speaker 1: most of the problems in the running game are because 749 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 1: of Zeke and not because of the offensive line? Um? No, 750 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 1: I definitely wouldn't say most of them. Um, but I 751 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 1: do I do in my opinion, it does look somewhat like, um, 752 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 1: it has been his because we have seen um last year. 753 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 1: You know, he would break some tackles even behind the 754 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and gain at least two or three yards. Um. 755 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: But there may have been somewhat of a factor that 756 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 1: played into this legal situation, him just being exhausted. All right, 757 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 1: thanks for the carmen. You guys agree. Yeah, I'm gonna 758 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and label that a pretty big stretch. 759 00:37:57,800 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 1: First of all, and this goes back to what we 760 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: used to argue about a training camp. You know, it's 761 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 1: funny because the caller said, you have to think of 762 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 1: players as more than real life Madden players. But as 763 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,360 Speaker 1: far I mean, as far as we are to understand it, 764 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 1: the whole reason he's not suspended right now is because 765 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: he's adamant that he didn't do anything wrong, and so 766 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: he's fighting this literally, I mean, he's taking this into 767 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: other states and the federal level to try to fight 768 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: for what he thinks is right, which is that he 769 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,720 Speaker 1: didn't do anything in the NFL's investigation process was flawed. 770 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 1: So to just say, you know, take the suspension, sit down, 771 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: don't worry about this, just admit that you did all 772 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 1: these heinous things, and then come back and this won't 773 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: be a problem, which, first of all, that's absurd because 774 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 1: this will still be a problem. You'll still have that 775 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 1: following you. If you admit to it and serve your suspension, 776 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: you will be a pariah in the media, in the 777 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: fan base, so it doesn't just go away because you 778 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: sit down for six weeks. On top of that, how 779 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: absurd do you sound in August saying well, maybe the 780 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: team will just be better if Zeke sits down and 781 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,720 Speaker 1: doesn't play. I mean, even as much as the running 782 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,840 Speaker 1: game has struggled, he's still one of your five best players. 783 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,239 Speaker 1: Nicko will argue that he's your best player, So that 784 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:16,240 Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Yes, the run game has struggled, 785 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 1: it's like middle of I didn't even realize it was 786 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 1: as bad as it's been. It's the middle of the pack. 787 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: But let me ask you this question. If it's fourteenth 788 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: in the league, I mean, the numbers are there, you 789 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: can go look at it. Yeah, I get that. I'm 790 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 1: just saying. And my point I was gonna make is 791 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: if Denver is not included in that, because that number 792 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 1: takes that average down so much. No, no, no no, no no. 793 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: It's the difference between an average and a median, right. 794 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: That's why you do the two different calculations. It's because 795 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: you're trying to look at outlies and say how much 796 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: did the outlier effect. You're the guy, You're the guy 797 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: that hates when the fan takes I'm not saying take 798 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:50,760 Speaker 1: it out. That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying 799 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,400 Speaker 1: is when you factor in the fact that that was 800 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: such a low production, My question is has the Running 801 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: game been bad overall or did you have a really 802 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 1: bad game there? That's my question. Even in the games 803 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: where it hasn't been that bad, it hasn't been on 804 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: the level it was. Okay, that's fair, but I don't 805 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,280 Speaker 1: know that it's been as bad as saying the running 806 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 1: game has struggled. I think it had a game with 807 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,640 Speaker 1: a running game struggled. I think last game they ran 808 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: the ball really effective. And you were the one personally, 809 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:16,319 Speaker 1: you were the one that has said over the last 810 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 1: couple of weeks that you look at those other three 811 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 1: weeks and overall this running game has been pretty good. 812 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure you were the one to say it 813 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: has been effective. It was second best in the league 814 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 1: last year. Come down there. No, I'm just saying like 815 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 1: he doesn't appreciate that I called him out for doing 816 00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 1: what he called that guy out for to day. That's 817 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: not calling me out. I'm saying that you're the one 818 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 1: that said the running game has been good, it has 819 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 1: been effective. It has not been dominant. It was no, 820 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,880 Speaker 1: you just said it was ineffective. It was. It has 821 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:45,880 Speaker 1: not been up to the level that you expect of it. 822 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 1: It has not been up to the level that it 823 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 1: needs to be for this team to be a playoff 824 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 1: target target. It's not a moving target. If the if 825 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: this team and this offense are going to reach the 826 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,280 Speaker 1: level they need to the point where they're winning ten, eleven, 827 00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,440 Speaker 1: twelve games and going to the playoffs, it has not 828 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:03,800 Speaker 1: been affect. It has been good too, better than good 829 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: on an NFL level. But this team was vastly better 830 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 1: than that at running the ball last year. Would you 831 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 1: agree with that? Yes, I agree with all right, that's 832 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: not what you said at first, but I agree with 833 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 1: that they have struggled again. You can take this back 834 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 1: to the deck thing. They have struggled up to what 835 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: the level of expectation was. I think you can place 836 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 1: the blame on a lot of different people for that. 837 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,840 Speaker 1: I don't really and I'm sure the legal thing is 838 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 1: weighing on Zeke, but I don't really buy that, like 839 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: he's not breaking tackles in the backfield or he's not 840 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 1: hitting the hole the right way because he's so exhausted 841 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: from the legal thing. If I know anything about athletes, 842 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 1: he probably blocks that out the minute he gets to 843 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 1: the stadium on Sunday. That's not what it's about. Always 844 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,720 Speaker 1: It's not always about getting to the stadium. It's about 845 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 1: are you doing what you need to do on Wednesday 846 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: night to stay up here and look at the tape 847 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 1: and watch what the Broncos are doing? And are you 848 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 1: just saying you know what everyone else is leaving, I'm leaving, 849 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: I'm good and I'm good, or I gotta go run 850 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: over here, I gotta go meet with my cart or whatever. 851 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 1: I've said it a thousand times. I mean, teams don't 852 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 1: get beat on Sunday. They could beat on Wednesdays and Thursdays. 853 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,880 Speaker 1: And you're running back. I mean, is he Is he 854 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,399 Speaker 1: preparing everything that he needs to prepare? And I think 855 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 1: that there's no way that this thing is not weighing 856 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:17,959 Speaker 1: on him. But I don't understand the caller really to say, well, 857 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,239 Speaker 1: what should they have done things differently? Or is it 858 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: just was it? More like do you think it would 859 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,879 Speaker 1: have been better to get it knocked out? But at 860 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 1: to Dave's point, you don't believe that you should be there. 861 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,360 Speaker 1: If you don't believe you should be in this situation, 862 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 1: then you are going to fight it. We saw yesterday 863 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 1: in the day before things matter, you make a decision 864 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 1: and you think you're being funny or whatever, and it matters. 865 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:45,720 Speaker 1: It matters to sponsors. And so that's for that comment. 866 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 1: Talking about new about cam Newton's comment and how one 867 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 1: of the sponsors and one of his sponsors dropped him. 868 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: So what do you really want to put if you 869 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 1: do think you're you're not guilty of domestic violence and 870 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 1: domestic you really want to put that on you just 871 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 1: because I want to get this out of the way. No, 872 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 1: that doesn't work like that, Okay, And I get all that. Sorry, 873 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 1: I get all that, But at the same and I 874 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 1: don't know how the whole legal thing works out, how 875 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 1: the process is and all that, but once it's submitted 876 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 1: to a court or something, there's nothing more you're really doing. 877 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:24,359 Speaker 1: You're waiting for a response. So it's not like he's 878 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 1: sitting at home or whatever, going every day, just sitting 879 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 1: and this whole thing is waiting on him. Well, I 880 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,279 Speaker 1: don't know about that. I mean, there's still strategy that 881 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 1: they have to talk about it and he has to 882 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,320 Speaker 1: deal with his attorneys on Okay, So if this happens, 883 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna do this, and there's this briefing that we 884 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 1: want to file, and we think that the NFL is 885 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 1: going to do this, or if they do this, then 886 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 1: we're gonna do this. Yeah, before it's out right now, 887 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 1: I mean, how much of that are you still doing? Well, 888 00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:51,919 Speaker 1: they're still preparing. They still have a case that they're 889 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 1: preparing for because if the court says, Okay, we're gonna 890 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:57,440 Speaker 1: keep this stay in place, whether they say it that 891 00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,320 Speaker 1: or not, they're still going to at some point a 892 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,919 Speaker 1: court is going to hear this case. So the leg 893 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,799 Speaker 1: the legal guys are still having to be preparing for that. 894 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,720 Speaker 1: And I would assume, I would assume that that Zeke's 895 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 1: at least somewhat a part of that, because he wants 896 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 1: to know what is his legal defense, Like what are 897 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:14,319 Speaker 1: y'all want to say? Say, I'll try to get me 898 00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 1: out of this. I mean, I know he has to 899 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 1: deal with him, but at this point, how much do 900 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 1: you really think he is involved in those conversations. I 901 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 1: don't know. All I could say is, if it were me, 902 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 1: i'd be very involved because this is my life. If 903 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 1: it was you, yeah, that's say. I can't speak for him. 904 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know even well, even if 905 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:33,799 Speaker 1: he's not a part of this at all, And this 906 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 1: week of all weeks. I mean, the federal court is 907 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: weighing this decision right now, and even if he hasn't 908 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 1: met with his attorneys and weeks, that's something I'd be 909 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 1: thinking about a lot, be worried about it. Yeah, it 910 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 1: would keep me up at night for sure, because that's 911 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:50,399 Speaker 1: something that affects my livelihood, it affects my personal reputation 912 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:52,719 Speaker 1: like that would be a hard thing to deal with, 913 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 1: I think personally for me, just having to deal with 914 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 1: that mentally of not knowing and knowing that this court 915 00:44:57,760 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 1: is deliberating on it, and I get that. I just 916 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 1: think if it's something that's I mean, at this point, 917 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:07,359 Speaker 1: it's out of your hands. So when it's like that, 918 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 1: are you really going around the whole day with that 919 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,320 Speaker 1: whole thing just circling your head twenty four to seven. 920 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 1: I don't know. That hasn't happened to me. I'm just 921 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. That's just my assumption of things. I 922 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 1: don't if I'm trying to put myself into that situation, 923 00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,759 Speaker 1: and at this point, I don't think I would be 924 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 1: going around all day thinking about that. I would try 925 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 1: to focus on the support in the game, try to focus. Yeah, 926 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,839 Speaker 1: I would, but I will, I will go back to 927 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 1: you and give you credit to what you just said 928 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 1: a minute ago, which is and I know right, and 929 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't mean this to sound condescending or 930 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 1: dismissive toward fans, but we just answered this on the 931 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 1: mail back to you, know Lyle Collins at right tackle 932 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,840 Speaker 1: like he hasn't played like an all pro, so a 933 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 1: lot of people want to move him back to guard. Yeah, 934 00:45:56,760 --> 00:46:00,279 Speaker 1: and it's just that it's that quick turnaround attitude where 935 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 1: it's like, well it's it doesn't look as good as 936 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 1: it did, so fix it. Move it back to what 937 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 1: I think it might be so that it can look 938 00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 1: good again. Fix it now, now, now, now, now, now, 939 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,280 Speaker 1: whatever has to be done to make it look better, 940 00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 1: now do that. As opposed to it's this is a 941 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,160 Speaker 1: hard league to play in. You got to grind some 942 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 1: stuff out, You gotta figure some things out. This line 943 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 1: has to figure out how to work with each other, 944 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 1: because two fifths of it is not the same. You're 945 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 1: running back has all kinds of baggage that he's trying 946 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:30,360 Speaker 1: to sort through right now. Maybe he's distracted, maybe he's 947 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,399 Speaker 1: not all there, Maybe he just isn't seeing it as well, 948 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:35,719 Speaker 1: maybe defenses are doing things that he's not used to, 949 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,680 Speaker 1: and all of that considered, they are still running the 950 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,319 Speaker 1: ball fairly well compared to most of the teams in 951 00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:45,799 Speaker 1: the league. It does not look as amazing as it 952 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:48,279 Speaker 1: did last year, and I think which is hard to 953 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 1: do because they had a phenomenal year. Everybody would agree 954 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 1: that that's kind of a bummer because it's a lot 955 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 1: of fun to watch them run for two hundred and 956 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:57,919 Speaker 1: thirty yards per game. But the fact that they're only 957 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 1: running for one hundred and forty year, whatever it is, 958 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:03,880 Speaker 1: that's not the end of the world one month into 959 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:07,920 Speaker 1: a sixteen game season. So you know, as much as 960 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 1: it might that knee jerk reaction to say fix it, 961 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,840 Speaker 1: change it, whatever you got to do, like, that's usually 962 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 1: not the best way to go about these things. The 963 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 1: best way to go about these things is to evaluate it, 964 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,839 Speaker 1: keep working at it, give everybody some time to kind 965 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 1: of let it come together and just take some breaths. 966 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:27,960 Speaker 1: All right, let's take our final break. When we come back, 967 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,399 Speaker 1: we're gonna get some more questions. The numbers two, one, four, 968 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 1: eight seven to twenty one h two or hit us 969 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 1: on Twitter at Cowboys break will also get to our 970 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 1: crazy predictions and our predictions for the game.

Let's uh, let's get to some crazy predictions. 1038 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 1: We only have about eight minutes left from the show 1039 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:14,759 Speaker 1: and hopefully we'll get some predictions from some fans. You 1040 00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:17,399 Speaker 1: guys call us two one four eight seven to twenty 1041 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,480 Speaker 1: one O two or hit us on Twitter at Cowboys Break. 1042 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 1: Let's start with Amber today. Amber, give us a crazy prediction, 1043 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 1: and what's your prediction for the game. Let's see, um, 1044 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:35,080 Speaker 1: let me go hi forty three forty Packers. My crazy 1045 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:40,920 Speaker 1: prediction would be that the Cowboys win. And she's hedging 1046 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 1: her bets. You can one of them, right, yeah, one 1047 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 1: of them? Right? Better? Blue? I mean okay, moving on, um, 1048 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 1: crazy prediction Cowboys win? Does Bryant catches eighty five percent 1049 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:00,840 Speaker 1: of his passes. He scores two touchdown, one gets called back, 1050 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 1: but the last touchdown he gets that's a winning touchdown 1051 00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. So you think the Packers are gonna win, 1052 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:12,560 Speaker 1: but you think yes, But I'm going to my crazy prediction. 1053 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:16,560 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Okay, this is my final score. Predictions contradict 1054 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:18,319 Speaker 1: each other. You're just trying to make sure you'll be 1055 00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:21,280 Speaker 1: right one way or the other on Monday. Okay, Amber 1056 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 1: ed Vegas, red black. That's what you do. That's what 1057 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,840 Speaker 1: I learned. Yeah, you put him on most sides. Do 1058 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 1: you get something? All right? Look all right, Dave Um. 1059 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 1: This is a good segue since we just wind about 1060 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:41,839 Speaker 1: the running game for ten minutes before the break. I 1061 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 1: think this will be the most Cowboys like the Cowboys 1062 00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:48,919 Speaker 1: running game will look or has looked all year. I'm 1063 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 1: thinking one one forty one for Ezekiel and something like 1064 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:56,839 Speaker 1: you know, one eighty or one ninety. As a team. 1065 00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 1: I don't think it will be enough. I think Aaron 1066 00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,640 Speaker 1: Rodgers is special, and I think the Packers will win 1067 00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 1: thirty one twenty eight, right all right, Niki? Now I 1068 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 1: think um crazy prediction is that Jeff Heath will have 1069 00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:28,760 Speaker 1: another interception off of Aaron Rodgers and we'll be like, man, 1070 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: he needs to face him all the time, because if 1071 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 1: you face him, you'll get it picks. I think you'll 1072 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:37,920 Speaker 1: get an interception. I do think the running game will 1073 00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,759 Speaker 1: will will fare well in this game, and I think 1074 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,760 Speaker 1: the Cowboys are going to win. I'm gonna say twenty 1075 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 1: seven to twenty one, and that's a later touchdown by 1076 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:53,120 Speaker 1: the Packers. I think the Cowboys are gonna control the game. 1077 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,080 Speaker 1: They're gonna win. I think injuries are going to be 1078 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 1: an issue for Green Bay more than they will be 1079 00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 1: for Dallas. And I think you'll see some energy and 1080 00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 1: that's the a and we have not seen. We definitely 1081 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:04,319 Speaker 1: didn't see last a week. But they didn't give them 1082 00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:06,120 Speaker 1: any reason too. I think this will be a big game. 1083 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 1: A lot of Packer fans, there are a lot of 1084 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:09,839 Speaker 1: Cowboy fans. It'll be exciting. I think Dallas will win 1085 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 1: it all right. My crazy prediction is this Cowboys defense 1086 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 1: will get five sacks with the return of David Irving. Prediction, 1087 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:19,960 Speaker 1: they will get a ton of sacks and it will 1088 00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:23,320 Speaker 1: feel like they are just beating up on Aaron Rodgers. 1089 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers will still do his thing, but they're gonna 1090 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 1: They're gonna get a lot of sacks on him. And 1091 00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:29,520 Speaker 1: I actually think the defense will score this week. I 1092 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:32,319 Speaker 1: don't know if it's an interception or fumble or what, 1093 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 1: but I think defense is going to score. And I 1094 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: think that's going to be ultimately how the Cowboys win 1095 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:39,879 Speaker 1: this game. It's because they're gonna need some help from 1096 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 1: defense and our special teams to win this game. I 1097 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 1: think they end up winning though at home thirty eight 1098 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 1: thirty three over Green Bay. If I will say this, 1099 00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:52,239 Speaker 1: if the Cowboys win this game, it is because this 1100 00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:55,680 Speaker 1: pass rush really gets after this Green Bay line, which 1101 00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:59,080 Speaker 1: looks like it will again be depleted. Aaron Rodgers is 1102 00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:00,799 Speaker 1: gonna get rid of the ball quick, so they gotta 1103 00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:04,319 Speaker 1: be good. Um, I think you know. I'm sorry. I 1104 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,319 Speaker 1: think the secondary is probably better than it gets credit for. 1105 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:09,200 Speaker 1: But they're not gonna beat Rogers and these receivers head up. 1106 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 1: So if they're If the Cowboys win, um, it's because 1107 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 1: the pass rush doesn't give Rogers any room to do it. 1108 00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:16,360 Speaker 1: And as a part of that, if they can force 1109 00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 1: him into some bad decisions or hit him and make 1110 00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:21,240 Speaker 1: the ball come loose and right. That's how you beat 1111 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:23,640 Speaker 1: this team, is that you're gonna have to really harass Rogers. 1112 00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:25,880 Speaker 1: Because even with that, Rogers still gonna do his thing. 1113 00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:28,120 Speaker 1: He's still gonna get yards, he's still gonna get touchdowns. 1114 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,319 Speaker 1: But they're gonna have to harass him enough to where 1115 00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 1: they slow him down on some of those drives and 1116 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,480 Speaker 1: get a short feel for the offense. At times, I 1117 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 1: do think the offense is gonna better. I'll give you 1118 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:38,400 Speaker 1: nick on that. I think this is gonna be a 1119 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,600 Speaker 1: good game for the offense. So for a four person show, 1120 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:44,239 Speaker 1: we have three picks for the Cowboys and two for 1121 00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:49,080 Speaker 1: the Packers. That's true, four persons show person show. Didn't 1122 00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:51,000 Speaker 1: think that was possible, but hey it is. It can happen. 1123 00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:53,040 Speaker 1: Let me think can happen on this show. We know 1124 00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:57,360 Speaker 1: one person's gonna be right on the money, and she 1125 00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:00,319 Speaker 1: will brag about it. Oh yeah during the I'm sure 1126 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:01,840 Speaker 1: in the press box. We won't even be out of 1127 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 1: the press box yet she's gonna be already like this. 1128 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,360 Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, this is a game that I have 1129 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: struggled to pick. Who's gonna win. Clearly, yes, clearly, clearly 1130 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:19,160 Speaker 1: I just again, just going up against Aaron Rodgers, that's 1131 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,600 Speaker 1: gonna be really difficult to beat him, just because of 1132 00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:24,920 Speaker 1: everything that he can do. But at the same time, 1133 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:29,760 Speaker 1: I think that the Cowboys, they're looking better health wise. 1134 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:34,839 Speaker 1: They they can do things to stop them. But I 1135 00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:39,360 Speaker 1: just don't think it'll be enough. I don't That's why. Whatever, 1136 00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:44,879 Speaker 1: So you're picking the Packers. But crazy prediction is okay, reality, 1137 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 1: she's kind of reality is Packers win? Crazy prediction here 1138 00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 1: if we get yeah, that's crazy she's got. She's standing 1139 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 1: on top of the fence and just like waiting to 1140 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 1: see which side she needs to jump over on it, 1141 00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 1: and she'll do it after the game. I just said 1142 00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:03,960 Speaker 1: it reality now in a in a crazy world, in 1143 00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:07,320 Speaker 1: my head, I would go with the Cowboys. This sounds 1144 00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 1: like the Cowboys are like I don't know that, like 1145 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,480 Speaker 1: expected to lose by like two touchdowns, which they are 1146 00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:16,520 Speaker 1: still favored, just still favorite by two. I thought about 1147 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:19,439 Speaker 1: that though they're favored by two, which means there's home 1148 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 1: field advantage typically gives you three or four points. So 1149 00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 1: the oddsmakers are saying the Packers are a little bit bad, 1150 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:28,760 Speaker 1: and what what people forget? The oddsmakers don't set that 1151 00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 1: based upon necessarily who they think is gonna win. No, 1152 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:33,520 Speaker 1: that's the odds based on what'll make you get people 1153 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 1: to bet right. So this could be one of those 1154 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:38,560 Speaker 1: situations where they know, hey, yeah, you favor the Packers. 1155 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:40,560 Speaker 1: Not many people are necessarily going to bet on that 1156 00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 1: you favor the Cowboys. You might get a lot more action. 1157 00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:45,320 Speaker 1: So who knows. All right, let's uh real quick, let's 1158 00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:47,919 Speaker 1: get one more question. We gotta call from Rob in Vegas. Rob, 1159 00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:53,000 Speaker 1: what up? Rob? You there? I'm here, all right? What 1160 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:57,840 Speaker 1: you got crazy? I think the Cowboys win thirty four thirty. 1161 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: I think this is uh. I think it's a very 1162 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:02,040 Speaker 1: important game for the Cowboys just to show that they 1163 00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 1: could beat a good team. I mean, you beat the Giants, 1164 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:07,439 Speaker 1: they haven't won a game, and you beat Arizona, which 1165 00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:10,200 Speaker 1: isn't good. So I think they have to proof to themselves. 1166 00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:12,840 Speaker 1: They're at home. Let you let the fans down. And 1167 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:15,439 Speaker 1: I think he gave one away last week. I think 1168 00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:18,480 Speaker 1: the defense is better prepared to beat them this year 1169 00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:21,800 Speaker 1: compared to lash year because of I think they got 1170 00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 1: more athleticism in the back end, and I think they 1171 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,439 Speaker 1: got a better pass rush, and I disagree with David. 1172 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 1: If this team, if Zeke has one hundred forty yards 1173 00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 1: rushing and they lose, then you really better be concerned. 1174 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 1: But I think this is a game where Zeke is 1175 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,400 Speaker 1: going to do just about everything catching the ball. I 1176 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 1: think he's in better shape now. When he first started, 1177 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:43,480 Speaker 1: I think he was a little heavy, you know, a 1178 00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:47,280 Speaker 1: week one, week two, he looks then a little more explosive. Hey, 1179 00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:49,400 Speaker 1: you know a lot of stress. Some people lead, who knows, 1180 00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 1: And I just think I think the Cowboys need this 1181 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:54,960 Speaker 1: game just for them their mind going to the buy. 1182 00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:57,520 Speaker 1: And that's my predictions. Thirty four thirty All right, thanks 1183 00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:00,800 Speaker 1: for the call. We will see this. They ran for 1184 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:03,520 Speaker 1: one ninety against the Rams and last year so oh no, 1185 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:05,840 Speaker 1: m yeah, and lost. But you know, here's the other 1186 00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:07,919 Speaker 1: thing I just thought about as he was talking. If 1187 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 1: at the beginning of the season somebody told you after 1188 00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 1: the first five weeks Cowboys would be three and two, 1189 00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:14,920 Speaker 1: would you say that's realistic, that's probably the way it's 1190 00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 1: going to go. Ish, Yeah, that's you look at the 1191 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:19,840 Speaker 1: first month and I wouldn't have said that one of 1192 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:21,560 Speaker 1: the losses would come to the Ram. But yeah, I 1193 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,800 Speaker 1: guess the point I'm making is he said you gave 1194 00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:26,400 Speaker 1: away one of the Rams. Well, I think most people 1195 00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:29,520 Speaker 1: probably agree that. They think they thought that if there 1196 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 1: were going to be games that they would lose in 1197 00:59:31,040 --> 00:59:33,760 Speaker 1: this first in the first five games, the Packers would 1198 00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 1: be one of them. So you have an opportunity maybe 1199 00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:37,640 Speaker 1: still won back if you have that mindset. I guess 1200 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:39,919 Speaker 1: I wrote that in my column yesterday, is you gave 1201 00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 1: away one that you should have won, which means you 1202 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:43,720 Speaker 1: have to step still one you're probably not supposed to. 1203 00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:46,920 Speaker 1: But talking about the first five or six games of 1204 00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:48,520 Speaker 1: the year, you didn't know you were going to have Zeke, 1205 00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:52,360 Speaker 1: so I didn't If you didn't have Zeke, what were 1206 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:55,880 Speaker 1: you expecting three and two, three and three? I don't know? 1207 00:59:56,400 --> 00:59:58,640 Speaker 1: All right, we will find out on Sunday kick time 1208 00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:01,720 Speaker 1: round three thirty or so. Check it out.
