He 17 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: might have been before you left. I don't know. I 18 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: mean that sounds all right. I guess maybe Derek Cannard 19 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: was the guard that I was talking about. They called 20 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: him Big Baby. Nate liked him because he said he 21 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 1: was bigger than him, So he's big. Yeah. Derek Canard, 22 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: he played back in the in the nineties. Yeah, it's 23 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: really not a lot of guys that have worned sixty 24 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 1: in a game. Backup he played. He played in the 25 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: in the middle of the nineties. He was like a 26 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: backup center guard. But he played a lot. He played. 27 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 1: He was a big dude. Uh, I mean, especially bigger 28 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: than Nate. So that tells you a lot. Yeah. Yeah, 29 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: you missed yesterday that we didn't talk about fifty No, 30 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: but dat was on. He was on the show Wednesday 31 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: night up Crosstalk, Cowboys Crosstalk. He was up there so 32 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: talking and so he was. He was a good fifty nine. Yeah, 33 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: he's not alone doing it. He was doing radio in 34 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: sant Antelo. Yeah. I don't think he is anymore. Now. 35 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: I should have listened to the show. Shannon would tell 36 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 1: us what he's doing now or Mickey. That's what I thought. 37 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: I thought he was a restaurant to work to Chick 38 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:20,119 Speaker 1: fil A, And yes, you know that's that's actually that's 39 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: big because I believe if you own a Chick fil A, 40 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: it means you have to work at Chick fil A's 41 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: correct for two years. I mean you have to do 42 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: go through all the steps and stuff like that. Yeah, 43 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that's so. Dat was in there making 44 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: like hey, yeah, get a doctor pepper Chick because of 45 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: Dat can't take your order place. Yeah, something like that. 46 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: I wish I could have just driven up and been 47 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: like that, Hey, how are you doing? Cool? Okay number 48 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: one with fries. Yeah, probably not sponsored, but whatever. And 49 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: I think they tell you where your restaurant has to be. 50 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: You can't like, oh, you don't tell him like hey, 51 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: so you just put in basically say give me all 52 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: the restaurant and they say, okay, we're gonna put your 53 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: this location the general area. And they're like, hey, we 54 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: want to put one here. Would you like to own 55 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 1: that one? Does that make sense? Okay? Can't You can't 56 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: be like, hey, it'd be great spot to put one 57 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: right next. Well, basically what you have to do is 58 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: you have to find a spot. Then you have to 59 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,839 Speaker 1: find the smallest parking lot in the world to put 60 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: it right there with it. That's that's I'm telling you. 61 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: I mean, one of my buddies that said this a 62 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: long time ago. It's one of the funniest things ever. 63 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: He's like, when my son gets old enough to drive, 64 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: I'm just taking him to a Chick fil a parking 65 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: lot and let him, you know, maneuver in there, because 66 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: if you can do it through there, you can get 67 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 1: through anywhere. Good point. That is a good point. All right, 68 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: let's catch up on I would usually we talk about injuries. 69 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: I only think there's one injury we're talking about this week, 70 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: Tyren Smith. What are we hearing and what are you 71 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: expecting to happen come Sunday. I'm start with expecting, Okay, 72 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: I'm expecting him to not be there and play. I'm 73 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: not expecting him to play. Okay. He hasn't done much 74 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: this week, he hasn't done any practicing, but they're still 75 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: that they do. They don't practice today, they practice tomorrow. 76 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: And McCarthy said multiple times today that if he doesn't 77 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: do anything about him or he's not gonna play. But 78 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: they're still sort of holding out hope that he can 79 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: do that. But yes, I guess because it's tiring and 80 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: because of the nature of the injury, I just have 81 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: a feeling he won't play. That's my guess. How guess 82 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: they're they're gonna keep the same line it. Yeah, I'm 83 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: thinking in Spanish, I almost starry speaking Spanish. Sorry, the 84 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: same lineup. I don't if that's good or bad that 85 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: you were going to do that, because it might mean 86 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: you have some really strong opinions there um no, but yeah, 87 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: it sounds like they're gonna keep the same lineup, keeps 88 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: still on that side, which y'all, I really said it. 89 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm not happy with the decision, but don't be better 90 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: than well, that's what I was going to ask you. 91 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: I was actually just gonna ask you that, do you 92 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: think with a week more of work, do you expect 93 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: him to be better than he was last week? We 94 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: know he's not tiring. He's not gonna be tiring. That's 95 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: that's that's not what who he is. But you think 96 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: he'll be better. Obviously he's gonna keep improving game after game. 97 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: But I feel like at this point in a mid season, 98 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: I'm wanting the least changes as possible. You know, when 99 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: something is working, I don't want to mess with it. 100 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: So that's why that's how I see it. Yes, he's 101 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: gonna be fine, he might hold up. He's gonna keep 102 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: improving week after week, but We're at the point of 103 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: the year that I'm like, I'd rather not just put 104 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 1: Lyle on less Lyle unless they did try it in 105 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: practice and he completely butchered the whole day. In let's 106 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: let's focus on that. I mean, I'm not saying that 107 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: that happened, right, but we don't know. But they didn't practice. 108 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: But Lyle missed the whole season last year. He came 109 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 1: back to training camp, came back to preseason games, and 110 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: the first couple of games he hasn't been great at 111 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: his normal spot right which right tackle and left tackle 112 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: is always considered to be harder than right tackle. So 113 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: if he hasn't if he's come back to his normal 114 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: spot hasn't been great, what do you think it would 115 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: look like on the left side. Yeah, and not only that, 116 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: but you factor in the fact that they are telling 117 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: us that this is a shorter term injury. And this 118 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: is what Bucky was talking about earlier this week. If 119 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: you want to get Lyle kind of back in the 120 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: groove on the right side, the last thing you want 121 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: to do is maybe throw him to the left, and 122 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: then Tyrn's back in a week or two, and now 123 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: you got to throw him back to the right. Now 124 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: he's not better at the right. He hadn't worked himself 125 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: back into shape and the right, but he's been trying 126 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: to do the it just gets very, very convoluted. So 127 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: it makes more sense just to say, my swing tackle 128 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: will put him over there, and let's just work with 129 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: whatever we got to work with. But if he doesn't 130 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 1: play well this week, I think you really start you 131 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: have to look at tie and Seki as a possible 132 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: left tackle replacement. Then I'm not sure Tian Seki will 133 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: be any better than the last week, not either, but 134 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just you have to try something. Do 135 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: you think do you think part of the issue is 136 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: also he is on the left side with Connor Williams 137 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: versus being on the right side with Zach Martin. I mean, 138 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: and sometimes the guy that you're beside can help because 139 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: the communication may be better. They may be able to 140 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 1: have the ability to kind of help you out a 141 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: little bit more in tough situations. Probably, Like do you 142 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: think that that's a part of this as well? Yeah, 143 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure, I'm sure it's It doesn't hurt, 144 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: you know, it only helps to have, you know, And 145 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: Zach Martin is is the best guard in the league 146 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: in my opinion, and Carlin Williams is isn't the best 147 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: guard in the league. That's a great analysis right there. 148 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: He's not. He's not the best guard in the league. 149 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: So anymore, there you go. What else? It's so true, 150 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: it's like it's yeah, that's that's good. Nick, that's good. 151 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: All right, let's get into this. We got some storylines 152 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: later in the show. Also, we got Amber's got a 153 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: game for us, so we'll do that a little bit later. 154 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: But let's start with some of these storylines. Here's my 155 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: first question for you guys. What do you think is 156 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: the most important key to Dallas's offense getting back on track? 157 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: After last week where they were uncharacteristically bad, that they 158 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: have not had a game like that all season, what 159 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: do you think is most important key to them getting 160 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: back to where they were? Well? I think for them, 161 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: I mean that you could say, you know, be balanced, 162 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: run the ball, spread it around, you know, all the 163 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: cliche things you say, but but you know, I think 164 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: the most important thing. But after a game like that, 165 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: it's probably just to score early. I'm not saying you 166 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: take the ball to start the game. If you win 167 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: the toss, but I think that you need you know, 168 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: I think the best thing for them is to score early. 169 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: If they can get a drive and score early in 170 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: the game, I think that'll that'll really kind of you know, 171 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: take them to that to that next level. That's that's 172 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: to me, the biggest thing, just that flush is that 173 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: other game out completely. You go, you score, you get 174 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: a lead, you get back on track, so to speak, 175 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: and then I think from there they can they can 176 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: play in downhill. I think, Um, for me, it's hard 177 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: to kind of single one thing out, but I would 178 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: say just what they're doing this week, like refocusing after 179 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: getting slapped in the face that side of their face, 180 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: kind of cooling off and being like, Okay, I don't 181 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: on the other side to be slapped because we have 182 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: seen them being very much capable of overcoming every single 183 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,359 Speaker 1: obstacle and we know they can be a really powerful 184 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: offense in scoring. So it's there, it's there, you know, 185 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: you know they have it. So I think that's just 186 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: it comes down to them being humble, refocused, prioritizing and 187 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: having their game plan figure it out. I trust Kellen Moore. 188 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: I trust he's what he's been doing this year and 189 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: coming up with creative ways to move the ball. So 190 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: to me is that but if I had to pick 191 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: something specifically in the game, is just mainly what happens 192 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: in the old line, given that the protection he needs, 193 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 1: even because we saw a last game and that's how 194 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: we were talking about, well, the ankle is great because 195 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: he had to run several times he got to Yeah, 196 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: he was running out of the podcast because there was 197 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,719 Speaker 1: no protection there. So I would say if there is 198 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: any kind of hesitation with him trying to connect with 199 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: the guy, is just comes down to the old line, 200 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: just trying to be as solid as possible. Yeah, you know, 201 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 1: the one thing I'll point out if there was one 202 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: thing that changed that they could change from last week 203 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: to this that I think would make the difference, it 204 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: would be Dak and Dak playing at the level that 205 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: we're accustomed to seeing. Dak. We've heard some you know, 206 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: he talked yesterday and talked about how footwork wasn't great 207 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: sometimes throwing off the back foot. Those are the kinds 208 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 1: of mechanics that I think sometimes as as fans, we 209 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: don't always think about when a guy is coming back 210 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: those kind of things. You think, well, they can just 211 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: jump right back in but not having the repetitive motion 212 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: of doing it daily as you've been doing all season, 213 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: all the way back to minicamp. Right getting away from that, 214 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 1: even for a week or two, there's a difference. Your 215 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: body just loses some of that muscle memory, and that 216 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: especially when you're talking about these are split second decisions. 217 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 1: Like literally these guys are like you. They said he 218 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: had We were looking at some of the stats. He 219 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: had a long time in the pocket this games. He 220 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: had three seconds versus two. Think about that, like, you're 221 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: having to make decisions so fast and having to do 222 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: things so quickly that if your muscle memory isn't on 223 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: point to where your body is just reacting versus you know, 224 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: versus you having to think about it and do it, 225 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: that makes a difference. And so I think if Dak 226 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: is better this week, even though there were some drop 227 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: balls last week, I think if Dak is better, there's 228 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: less a percentage chance that even if they have some 229 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: drop balls that they won't connect on some of those 230 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: plays that would have made a difference last week against 231 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: that team. So I think if Dak is better, I 232 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: think they get this offense backrolling. It was a second 233 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: worst completion percentage game of his career and the worst 234 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: when it doesn't snow. I mean, the other one was 235 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: a snowy game against the Giants his rookie year, which 236 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: by the way, they had won eleven straight when they 237 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 1: when they played that game, and so here they are, 238 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: you know, sixth straight. But the big difference obviously with 239 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 1: him coming back from injury and the guy's being out 240 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: and the receivers being out, and it just it just 241 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: was a perfect storm to be terrible all the way 242 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 1: across the board. We're joined by David Hellman coming from 243 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: talking to coach mart Did he give you anything good? Um? Yeah, 244 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: you want to throw some of that out there? Trade 245 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: keep going up on these octaves, trade secrets, trade secrets. 246 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: I'll talk about it in the break. Yeah, there we go. Good. Hey, 247 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: maybe sprinkle some of it in there. No one today, 248 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: what's up? All right? Yeah? I just information sessions, we'll 249 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: call them. They're very useful. All right, Well, I'll throw 250 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: the question of you go through these guys, Uh, if 251 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: you could identify one thing, what would be the most 252 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: important key for Dallas this week for their offense to 253 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: get back on track. I mean, I'm sorry if this 254 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: sounds glib, But how about just like play good football. 255 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: And I don't mean like, I don't mean because they lost. 256 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: I mean they all played terribly. Like Dak's footwork was off. 257 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper dropped his only his first first drop of 258 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 1: the year, first time he's been targeted and didn't catch it. Um, 259 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: you attribute that to focus, So they're more focus focus, rust, 260 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: especially in Dak's case where he can't do or wasn't 261 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: able to do as much because of the calf injury. 262 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 1: Probably focused, Probably pressing because the game started off against 263 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: you and you're just scrambling to try to catch up. 264 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: Like I know, like I said, that sounds almost like 265 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: a smart Alec reply, But I don't think anybody on 266 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: the entire offense played a sound game, and I think 267 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: correcting that would go a long way. I am not 268 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: to take too much credit away from the Broncos, but 269 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: they didn't do themselves any favor with their own play. 270 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: All Right, We're gonna go ahead and take our first break. 271 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: When we come back, We're gonna dive a little bit 272 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: more into some of the storylines heading into this game. 273 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: Particularly we're gonna talk about the pass rush and what 274 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboys need to do in order to get some 275 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: pressure on Matt Ryan.

And the 329 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: thing about quarterbacks like this, Matt Ryan and you know 330 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: Eli Manning kind of I mean, they're they're they're they're 331 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: not gonna beat you with their athleticism, but they know 332 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: how to get rid of the ball, So you know, 333 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: I mean, to me, the best, the three guys that 334 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: are gonna help the pass rush of the most are 335 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: gonna be Anthony Brown, Trayvon Diggs, and Jordan Lewis. If 336 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: they can get their guys locked in and not get 337 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: beat early on and force him to make some tough decisions, 338 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: then I think that's going to help the pass rushmore 339 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: than anything. I'm gonna say. No, Matt Ryan is very 340 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: good at getting rid of the ball. Like Nick just said, 341 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 1: like a quarterback who knows where he wants to put 342 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: the ball before it's even snapped is always going to 343 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: be tough to sack. That's why Brady doesn't take a 344 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: lot of sacks historically. I just hope. So. No, I 345 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: don't think they're gonna be able to consistently pressure him, 346 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,199 Speaker 1: but I don't need it all the time anyway. If 347 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,360 Speaker 1: if and I'm looking at Micah Parsons specifically, I'm sure 348 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna use him as a blitzer. I'm sure he's 349 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: gonna do some situational edge rush and I don't even 350 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: need you to sack him. I just need you to 351 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: make him uncomfortable enough that the throw is off or 352 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: he's got to get rid of it, or he's got 353 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: to check it down when he's looking for something else. 354 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: If Micah Parsons can do that a couple a handful 355 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: of times in crunch situations, red zone, end of half scenarios, 356 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: that's good enough considering what they're lacking. But I don't 357 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: think they're gonna be able to consistently pressure him in 358 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: the flow of the game. I guess we'll have to 359 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: tune in on Sunday the game. No, but I just 360 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: don't see any other That's what McCarthy said yesterday. He 361 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 1: was like games at noon. Oh, I'm sorry, Wow, you 362 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,120 Speaker 1: are on one. Did not didn't pick that up at all. 363 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm bad and dumb. I'll go in the corner. 364 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: But I just don't see any other way with like 365 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: them being successful without using the help of Micah and 366 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: everything that Dave said. And I know your Nick is 367 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: not necessarily a fan of that idea, and he wants 368 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 1: it to be you know, here and there, but not fully. 369 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:44,360 Speaker 1: But I just it's it's kind of like pick your 370 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 1: poison type of not pick your poison. What nothing I 371 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: was telling Derek. I want to talk when you're done oh, 372 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: don't be distractable. No, but it depends, okay, which which 373 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: area of the field are you willing to sacrifice a 374 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,360 Speaker 1: little more. You know, these eyes in the backfield are 375 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 1: gonna need help from whatever pressure they can create up front. 376 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: So I would rather create as much pressure as I can, 377 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: even though it's not gonna be easy, but with a 378 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 1: guy like Mica and relieve some of what's been happening, 379 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,959 Speaker 1: you know, some of the all the work on the backfield. 380 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: So other than that, I just don't see how it's 381 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 1: fully successful. I think Dave. I think it was Dave 382 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: that said it best. I don't change my whole tune. 383 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: I don't really care where Parsons lines up. He needs 384 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: to play eighty to ninety percent of the snaps. Don't 385 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: this rotating him at forty to fifty percent like to 386 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: happen in the Charger game. I'm not okay with that. 387 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: He needs to be on the field. There were some 388 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: two point conversions in that game. There were plays where 389 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: he just wasn't out there because it wasn't his turn. 390 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: Now he needs to play lineback if it's almost a 391 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: linebacker and moving around. That's what I want him to do. 392 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: I want him on the field. So wherever that is, 393 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: let's get him on the field. All right, Let's go 394 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 1: onto the next question. How much does the move from 395 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: Zeroline to Hira lah Who Hallelujah hurt your earliest. I 396 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: can't say that. I can't say Hira lah Who because 397 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: I can't say that. I just said it good, not 398 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: the other word. That Christmas word doesn't come out. An 399 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: he can't say it. It doesn't. It doesn't come out. Okay, 400 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: I can't do it. It's terrible. But Hira lah who's working? Yeah, 401 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: we were there like Amber. You just said it right now, 402 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,640 Speaker 1: Hira la Who. We're good. The whole show can say 403 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: Hira lah Who. Yeah, we're all good. I'm good. All right. 404 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: So how much does the move from Zeroline to Hira 405 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: La affect Hira lah who affects Dallas on special teams? 406 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: And I'm talking about field goals, talking about extra points 407 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: and I'm talking about kickoffs, canny watermelon, I mean, can 408 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: he do that? Does he has to? It's not gonna 409 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: be good. I say, I hope he doesn't need to, right, 410 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: I mean, that's it's another McCarthy. We'll see will I mean, 411 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: how can you do this guy's never kicked. He's never 412 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 1: kicked a game, he never kicked in an NFL game, 413 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: he's never kicked in America, I mean, like in the NFL. 414 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,359 Speaker 1: But a position like that, how much does it really 415 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:11,479 Speaker 1: really change to practice? Okay, but my point is when 416 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: you're looking at a position like that, you know, because 417 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: we can talk about receivers, tackles, but oh, it's very 418 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: very different compared to practice when you're in a game. 419 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: But then for a kicker, how much does that really 420 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: change when like comparing practicing game in high school people, 421 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: you had to do a speech, you did it in 422 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: front of your mirror, you rocked it, and then you 423 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: stood up there in front of twenty eight people, and it's, oh, 424 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 1: this is a guy that has but this is not 425 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: the same thing. But this guy has six years of 426 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: experience in the CFLs Day said, like, I didn't look 427 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: up the numbers, but you said, get a decent number 428 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: of people at those stadiums fifty sixty thousand people. So 429 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: this is not something that he's unfamiliar with when it 430 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 1: comes to even the crowd aspect. Right, But true, all 431 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: that is true. I just know that every year they 432 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 1: don't just take the All Star kicker from the CFL 433 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: and put him in the lead. It just doesn't happened. 434 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: There's always an All Star kicker. It doesn't always move 435 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: to the NFL. It's gonna be different. And I think 436 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: we're fooling ourselves if we don't think it is. But 437 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: we'll see. He might just he might just go out 438 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: there and rocket. Those numbers are good. Those are good numbers, 439 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: I think more than more than the crowd. Conditions for 440 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 1: a kicker matter more. And so he's kicked through that. 441 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: I like what There are no conditions at AT and 442 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 1: T Stadium pretty much. I mean can be if they 443 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: decided they want to open the doors, and they might 444 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: actually again, I mean that's what That's what they banked 445 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: on last year was that, you know, help with COVID 446 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: and all that has opened those doors, get the air 447 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 1: going through. They haven't always done it this year, no, 448 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: I think they've done it twice. It did last game, 449 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: they did it last week. Never opened the roof though, 450 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: most gorgeous day you could ever ask for, But they're 451 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,640 Speaker 1: not going to open them. They don't even when it's 452 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: a beautiful day like I thought that would be the norm, 453 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: and when a beautiful day, they'd open it. I just 454 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: that's just not It's not a thing. They don't like 455 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 1: the roof open for whatever reason, only if they get 456 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: asked by ESPN or NBC for a night game. Yeah, 457 00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't know if the roof's ever 458 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: been open for a day game. I'd have to look 459 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: that up. I don't know that it has because you 460 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: can tell by the by the sunlight on there. It's 461 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: there's been some That's what I like about it is 462 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: it looks like Texas Stadium when they do well what's 463 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 1: I figured they'd open it a lot to make it 464 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 1: look like Texas Stadium. But whatever. Um, I'm curious about 465 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 1: the kickoff aspect with Lerim. I don't know if he's 466 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: got the leg strength to consistently banging out of the 467 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: back of the end zone. And Cordarrel Patterson has Hall 468 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 1: of Fame credentials as a kick returner, so fearless, he's 469 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: I mean, he's great, he will, he will if he 470 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 1: gets to eight yards deep. He's coming out right pretty much. 471 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,479 Speaker 1: He's always done that. He's not afraid. And I if 472 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: anybody's got the green light, you would guess that it's him, 473 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: so just something to watch. I'm not I'm not saying 474 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: he's gonna have a touchdown, but I just it makes 475 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: me curious. What's harder for you to spell Hira law 476 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: Who or Cordurel Patterson Hira law who, just because I 477 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: didn't know who he was until a month ago, Whereas 478 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 1: Patterson's been in the league for he actually his name though. 479 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like there's two rs, three ls, and 480 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 1: he was even it's one one R, no one are 481 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: the first time, two hours, the second time, two ells 482 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 1: and two els, two ells. I didn't a little, he wrote. 483 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: They wanted to draft him. They I was gonna. I 484 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 1: wrote yesterday about all the recent It's eerie. I wrote 485 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,120 Speaker 1: a whole column about it. Just the Cowboys and Falcons 486 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 1: have occupied an eerily similar place in the NFL hierarchy. 487 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 1: Like they haven't been good consistently over the last decade, 488 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: but when they have been good, they've been good at 489 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: the same time. Their records have been similar, so they're 490 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: always around each other. You know. Atlanta traded up for 491 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: Tack McKinley, which is who Dallas wanted. They settled for Taco. 492 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: They took aj Tarrell which opened the door for the 493 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 1: Cowboys to draft CD and then yeah, even going I 494 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: remember the um, well that's not Atlanta, do Dave. But anyway, 495 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: Minnesota drafted Patterson right out from in front of Dallas, 496 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: and I remember Derek Dooley, who coached Adderson at Tennessee, 497 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: was furious. He was just like, they're taking all our guys. 498 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,360 Speaker 1: What is happening here? So it's interesting how those guys 499 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: take it so personally, which is whenever you get your 500 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: guy taken, they took our God, that's what makes the 501 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: draft fun. I mean a lot of things make the 502 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: draft fun, but yeah, it's it's interesting the way. Same thing. Um, 503 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley was a guy we talked about a lot 504 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: the year he came out, and they opted for Layton, 505 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: and then five or six spots later Atlanta took Ridley. 506 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,360 Speaker 1: So just a lot of a lot of weird coincidences 507 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 1: with these two teams. Let's get one more question, a 508 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 1: big picture question. Who has a great advantage due to familiarity? 509 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn or Matt Ryan? Uh? True? Um, I asked you. 510 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 1: I gotta asked this question yesterday. I think it's um, 511 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan has it has more of an advantage. I 512 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: think just seeing concepts and style of the way that 513 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: that dan Quinn likes to play. I know he's got 514 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: different personnel, but I think when you're a quarterback, like 515 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: like Matt Ryan, you've had to be a student of 516 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 1: the game for a long time. I feel like he 517 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: will be able to kind of I mean, just be 518 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 1: able to understand the approach of what Quinn's trying to 519 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: do more so than Quinn can do it with Matt Ryan. 520 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: Because do you think he's running the same the same 521 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: defense here as what he ran in it later? No? 522 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 1: I mean which I would I would say Quinn, because 523 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: unless Quinn's been lying to us, he he's talked a 524 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: lot about how he's completely revamped this whole thing. It's 525 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: a he's not just running Seattle cover three. That's not 526 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: what he does. I'm talking about being distractable, right, Um, 527 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 1: So I'd say Quinn just began. I mean to be fair, 528 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,880 Speaker 1: Ryan's in a different scheme with different personnel as well, 529 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: but you just develop such a level of familiarity with 530 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: your quarterback coaching there for six years. Yeah, And I 531 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: just think dan Quinn just as an example, It's like 532 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: I know a slot blitz and this part of the 533 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 1: field is going to mess with him or what I mean. 534 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: That's just generic example, But like dan Quinn knows his tendencies, 535 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,719 Speaker 1: he knows his body language, he knows what rattles him 536 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: and what doesn't. And Matt Ryan knows a lot about 537 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 1: dan Quinn obviously, but it's just all different personnel and 538 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: according to Quinn, a very different scheme from what he 539 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: was doing when he was still a head coach. So 540 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: I think I would bet on Quinn. I would agree 541 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 1: with that mainly because I'm looking for from the like 542 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 1: experienced perspective and like, who's the coach here, who's the 543 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 1: one that And I'm not saying obviously a quarterback has 544 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 1: to study and he has experience too, but as far 545 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: as like who invested, that is his job full on 546 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: one thousand percent. So I would imagine that dan Quinn 547 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 1: would be the one to actually benefit the most in 548 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: this scenario. But it'll be fun, it would be fun 549 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 1: to watch and actually see what actually happens. I just 550 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: think when you're out and you're practicing, you know, and 551 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: you're practicing against the defense, like he's actually seeing their 552 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: concepts more when you're I mean I don't know how 553 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 1: many times that dan Quinn's actually studying how to stop 554 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan. No, but what he does know, and this 555 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: is the part where I think I agree on on 556 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan on dan Quinn being having the advantage is 557 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: any successful head coach in the NFL has to know 558 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 1: his quarterback really, really well. And that means I think 559 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: Dave hit it on the on the head when he said, 560 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: you know his body language, how he responds in certain situations, 561 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: what he's trying to do when he gets a little 562 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: bit rattled, when he gets into those are the kinds 563 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: of things that a head coach has to read from 564 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:37,959 Speaker 1: his quarterback to know, Okay, how do we keep him 565 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: out of bad situations? That's the part where you don't 566 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: have He doesn't know that about dan Quinn necessarily, right. 567 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: It's like he doesn't know the body language part and 568 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: all that he's gonna be. He's gonna be up in 569 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 1: the press box something, not the press box, but up 570 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: in the coaches boot so he's not gonna even see him. 571 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: So I just I just think it's it's it's just 572 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: a familiarity. It's just kind of knowing. We all know people, 573 00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,479 Speaker 1: you know, well, you can kind of see on their 574 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 1: face when things aren't going right, and you know how 575 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 1: they typically respond in those situations. You know what things 576 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: really push their buttons. And so it's those kind of 577 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: things that are that are more mental that I think 578 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: that I'm more mental that can create some problems for 579 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: Ryan that may not be the same for for dan Quinn. Disagree, 580 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: just like I did yesterday. Good, all right, we're gonna 581 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: take our final break. We come back.

Got 635 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: a game for us. You got some questions, Let's go 636 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 1: which is there? All questions kind of more since we're 637 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 1: mid season, just general overall, not necessarily focused on this 638 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: game for this weekend. Okay, okay, So if they always 639 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: where to lose another game, which one do you think 640 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: would hurt them the less, the least least? Yes, which 641 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: one would you prefer them to if they had to 642 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: lose another game? Which opponent it was losing the AFC 643 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 1: always lose the game? That's going to affect the You 644 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: got two operations, got a specific team, Well, they've got 645 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: two AFC teams on the horizon right here. So I 646 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 1: think those are their last AFC games of the year, 647 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: right yeah, because they've already played Denver in LA and 648 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 1: New England. So yeah, and I said that, Yes, Look, 649 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: I'm not I don't believe in bad juju anyway, I'm 650 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: not trying to put this out into the world. But 651 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: like they could lose, like they could lose all three 652 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 1: of these and they would still everything they need to 653 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: do would still be out in front of them. Division 654 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: schedule is backloaded. They still got to play four of 655 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: the six division games. I think they could lose all 656 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: three and probably still have the division lead depending on 657 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: what happens with the other teams. And I know that's 658 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: not what anybody wants to hear after a six and 659 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: one start, but that's what we always talk about. Like 660 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: football is it's a living, breathing season, right, Like you 661 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: could suck for the next three weeks and then get 662 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: Randy and DeMarcus Lawrence back and all of a sudden, 663 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: your pass rushes humming and all this other stuff is 664 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: happening and everything's still out in front of you. So 665 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: that's a long answer, But like they could, they could 666 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: have a real slump here and it still wouldn't affect 667 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 1: their ability to accomplish the Chiefs. Chiefs would be the 668 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: word would hurt them the least, I think, more than 669 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: the Raiders. And the reason why I would say that 670 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: is because I kind of want them to get on 671 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: a I think they need to have the positive momentum 672 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: of the Raiders game to get a win so the 673 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 1: least would be, you know, you go out there and 674 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: you beat Kansas City, then they'll be printing Super Bowl 675 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: tickets again. And then you go in four days already 676 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 1: lose the Raiders. I mean that's just like here we 677 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,280 Speaker 1: go again. I think if you know, you lose the Chiefs, 678 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,280 Speaker 1: they're going to figure it out. They got a great quarterback, 679 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 1: they got a great crowd, coach, all that on the road, 680 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: But come back four days and go and beat the Raiders. 681 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,800 Speaker 1: I think that would, like you said, help the momentum. 682 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 1: So if it's one of the other, I would say Chiefs, ye. Well. 683 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,359 Speaker 1: And then within the division, I mean there's no such 684 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: thing as a good division loss, but um, it's almost 685 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: you have to figure out who do you think is 686 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 1: the worst team in the NFC East and loose to them, 687 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 1: because then like you want to beat the team you 688 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 1: think has any shot if there is one, of getting 689 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: back into the division race. I mean, I'm always going 690 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,479 Speaker 1: to be leary of Washington. Just be like, they haven't 691 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,439 Speaker 1: had their quarterback. He's gonna come back. It's one point, 692 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: and I know the defense has been bad, but again, 693 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 1: you can figure things out as the season goes, and 694 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: so them, and but then like it seems like Philly 695 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 1: might be sort of getting their act together. I can't tell. 696 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: I know, it's all these seems like you're just like 697 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: they look bad, but you never know. There's something good 698 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 1: about that though too. They all like kind of have 699 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 1: the arrow pointed up. Maybe not Washington just yet, but 700 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 1: you think that they might. But the good thing is 701 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: is they got to play each other. That's always a thing. 702 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 1: They always kind of beat each other, just like just 703 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: like it's tough with the Cowboys beating them, because you know, 704 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: the division games are always tough. But if they just 705 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: kind of hold serve at home and win their games 706 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: and that kind of stuff, that'll just keep them at 707 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,720 Speaker 1: that level down there, and they hope, you know, hopefully 708 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboys can if they get there. If New York 709 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: gets Saquon back and he's healthy, I actually think that 710 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: could make a big difference. They're not playing horrible football 711 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 1: right now. Their defense is actually pretty good. I just 712 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: I look at them and I'm like, man, they really 713 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: just need that. They need that offensive player that can 714 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 1: make big plays for them. They don't have that right 715 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: now in their offense. I don't think they got a 716 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: lot of receivers that are kind of miss hit or miss. 717 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: They don't have a guy they can rely on at 718 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,839 Speaker 1: office to make me play for I'm out on them 719 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: until Daniel Jones does something to prove that I should 720 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 1: think that he's good. He's not great. I don't think 721 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,760 Speaker 1: he's good. So this is the second time the Cowboys 722 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 1: have faced the team that picked up a road win 723 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: at New Orleans the week before, Right, didn't the Giants 724 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: do that, beat them on the road? Point? I think 725 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 1: about that, And then the Atlanta did the same thing. 726 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: And there they come in and just beat the Saints. 727 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 1: And it's funny too, and I'm not saying anybody's wrong, 728 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 1: but these things have residual effects. It's like they went 729 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: into the Dome and beat the Saints and it's like, well, 730 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 1: are these the Saints that were that really terrified you? No, 731 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: Saints are probably the most maddeningly inconsistent team in the NFL. Right, 732 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 1: and they got five wins. Yes, that's amazing, Like, yeah, 733 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 1: we're messing up the game. Let's go, let's play the game. 734 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: That's the whole point. But um, injury wise, up until 735 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: this point of the season, which injury do you think 736 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 1: will have affected the Cowboys the most. We're talking about 737 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: right up until right now, Yeah, because we don't know 738 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 1: really what's going to happen. I mean, not having he 739 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,919 Speaker 1: was your best defender when the season started. Not having 740 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 1: arguably your best defender for the entire season at this point, 741 00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:21,800 Speaker 1: I'm sure has had an effect. The flip side of 742 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: that is, it's exciting that you're getting him back at 743 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: some point. But when DeMarcus, when you suck that one 744 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: without him, yeah or six, how much better could they 745 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 1: have been? Instead? We'll see. I mean, well, Brandy hasn't 746 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,919 Speaker 1: missed any time yet, he missed one game. You're saying, 747 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 1: you're up until now, right now with the injuries that 748 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 1: we currently know, and we know that Randy my miss 749 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: like what three elite maybe he's gonna miss three games, 750 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: So I miss, I think I'm misunderstanding the question. I 751 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: thought you were talking about the biggest thing that's happened 752 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 1: to this point in the season, well, including the injuries 753 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 1: that we currently know of. I will into Marcus Larrence. 754 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: I would actually I would go the other day because 755 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: I would think about it from a standpoint of consequence. 756 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 1: As you get back, they haven't played with DeMarcus all 757 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 1: season and the defense has been markedly better than it 758 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 1: was last year. That doesn't mean when he comes back, 759 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 1: they're not going to be even better, you would think, 760 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 1: and he's going to add something that they don't have. 761 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,800 Speaker 1: But I look at Tyren Smith and last week his 762 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,320 Speaker 1: replacement was a problem. And if you want to go 763 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 1: even farther and get a little bit, you know, a 764 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: little bit crazy with this, maybe you even say the 765 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 1: injuries heard him most has been Dak. Because Dak's return 766 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 1: last week, the product of how he played might have 767 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 1: been he didn't play like that because of the Bronco right, 768 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,719 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I mean they played well, but I think 769 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 1: the fact that he was missing time and all that, 770 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: I think that certainly affected him more than Denver. I 771 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 1: was focusing on defense because there have been so many 772 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 1: more injuries on defense. But that you're right now, I 773 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: think Tyrn's the right answer because I have all the 774 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: confidence in the world that Dak that was just a blip, 775 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 1: like whatever you want to call I don't. I'm not 776 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 1: worried that he's gonna play early on Sunday. I am 777 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 1: worried about what the tackles are going to look like. 778 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 1: On Sunday, Randy missed the second game of the year. 779 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 1: Is that what happened? Yeah, with COVID. Yeah, and then 780 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: so they went into the Chargers with okay, and they 781 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: lost to Marcus the same week they I mean, they 782 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: were in this situation week two as well. Let me 783 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 1: throw this at you, though, do you think maybe Zach 784 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,800 Speaker 1: Martin would be considered because the game he missed. I 785 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: think if they would have had him, their running game 786 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: probably would have been a lot better, and maybe they 787 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: win that close game against Camp with us start the season. 788 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,759 Speaker 1: I don't think you're wrong, but I can't just go there, 789 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 1: you know, just don't guarantee you Yeah, yeah, but wouldn't 790 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 1: like they were horrible. They just didn't. And it's Brady 791 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:45,399 Speaker 1: and it's the reigning champs playing on Banner Night. Oh no, man, 792 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 1: I mean they get if they get it. I mean 793 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 1: we're talking like one play, Yeah, one play, either they 794 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: run the ball in front of touchdown or or at 795 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: that final drive they just get one more first down, 796 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: one more first down, then another short field goal. Actually 797 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,400 Speaker 1: well you know, and sometimes an all program yard can 798 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 1: just help you like that, Like I mean, if they 799 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,879 Speaker 1: would have got one more first down, bleed the clock down, 800 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,319 Speaker 1: kick a field goal, win the game. But then who 801 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: knows that they go and play the beat the Chargers. 802 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 1: That's what I mean, that's just the way of this. 803 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:15,879 Speaker 1: You can make fun of me all you want, ag 804 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: but I believe in the law of averages implicitly, Like 805 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,320 Speaker 1: if they beat Tampa, they for some reason, they're not 806 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,240 Speaker 1: going to five win. They're not. Yeah, they're not seven 807 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 1: and oh because because of that one thing. There's I 808 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,359 Speaker 1: just there's too many weird factors in the NFL. If 809 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: you have to pick one thing, what would be the 810 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:38,919 Speaker 1: biggest fix that this Skyways team needs for the rest 811 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: of the season healthy tyrants Man, please please tyrant I 812 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:47,280 Speaker 1: would say short yardage. Yeah, figure out short yardage because 813 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,959 Speaker 1: right now they're not very good in those situations. Figure 814 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 1: out how to if you got to get to a 815 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 1: fourth down and one fourth and one fourth and two, 816 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,359 Speaker 1: figure out how to pick that up and you got 817 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:58,879 Speaker 1: you got enough pieces on this offense to be able 818 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: to consistently do that, and they're not consistently doing it. Yeah, 819 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 1: I agree with that. I think that's the right answer. 820 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 1: Center guard in the middle there and there's no doubt 821 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 1: and you know, we can say all we wanted about what. 822 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 1: Washington doesn't look very good. The last two times the 823 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys a face Washington, it was not pretty. Now the 824 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: offensive line doesn't look the same. Jack Martin hadn't hasn't 825 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 1: played guard in any of those games. Tyran Smith didn't 826 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 1: play in those games. But I mean that's the last 827 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,839 Speaker 1: time we saw Washington. They were scoring more more points 828 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,360 Speaker 1: than the Cowboys offense. Was seemed like the defense was 829 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 1: scoring all these points. So Dak was missing from those 830 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 1: games too, that's worth bringing up. Yeah, fair, but I 831 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,919 Speaker 1: mean you can't block them. He can't block them though. Yeah, 832 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,359 Speaker 1: but I don't know that that first one, the first 833 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: Washington game just was ridiculous. Like the line was a mess. 834 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,799 Speaker 1: Dalton got concussed in like the second quarter. Nobody cared. Yeah, 835 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 1: I mean I think that looks like that hurt. And 836 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 1: I'm sure the that was they wasn't it. That was 837 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 1: the week after Dak, right, Yeah, there was such a 838 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: hangover on that team. They that's throw that game out 839 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:07,839 Speaker 1: completely anyway. Okay, Uh, we know a lot of guys 840 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 1: are under this is their contract year, so biggest priority 841 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:15,399 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys going into free agency. Oh god, there's 842 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: so many good choices on Randy. Randy, Randy. You get Randy. 843 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: Everybody else is like, Okay, maybe we want you, maybe 844 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 1: we don't. I don't know. If I could serve anybody, 845 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,320 Speaker 1: it would be Randy. And it's yeah, he plays the 846 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 1: most valuable position of any of them. The story's so good, 847 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 1: just the way the way that their patients paid off 848 00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 1: with him. And he's still a relatively young player in 849 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 1: terms of age and the amount of football he's actually played. 850 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 1: One him, you can keep him like, you can just 851 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:46,840 Speaker 1: tag him and you don't even have to worry about it. 852 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: I just I don't I don't remember when it happened, 853 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,240 Speaker 1: but I suggested that in the spring. I'm just saying 854 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 1: I was like, he could play his way into a 855 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 1: franchise tag and I feel like nobody agreed with me. Right, well, 856 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,160 Speaker 1: we just ignore you. Sometimes it's fairly busy thinking out 857 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 1: other things. Okay, all right, find the clip, I'll go 858 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: find it. Receipts. I'm fine with that answer. I just 859 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 1: wonder if you're that means you have two pass rushers 860 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,719 Speaker 1: or one. That's what I wonder worst. While you do it, 861 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 1: can you keep tank if you do that? I think 862 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 1: you can. Yeah, look at look at the rams. They 863 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 1: figure it out. Okay, if you're willing to just completely 864 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,840 Speaker 1: mortgage everything and cannon ball into the pool, you can 865 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 1: do whatever you want. Yeah, And I'm not saying that's 866 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 1: definitely a bad idea. You just gotta be committed. I mean, 867 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 1: at some point, you look at this team, you say 868 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:34,759 Speaker 1: you got a lot of talent. Man, at some point 869 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 1: you say, push them all in. See what happens. Sean 870 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 1: mcfaih is gonna get fired in three years. They're gonna 871 00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:42,879 Speaker 1: be three and fourteen or three and fifteen, and they're 872 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 1: gonna be you know, it's gonna talent depleted. And yes, like, 873 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:47,880 Speaker 1: well what happens. It's like, what do you mean? What happened? 874 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: They went all in the twenty twenty one and they 875 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 1: got bounced in the playoffs and then they ended up 876 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: not drafting it. I mean, even what they did a 877 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 1: quarterback that's an older quarterback, that's and I'm thinking another 878 00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 1: four it's worth. I mean, you know, they're gonna have 879 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:03,879 Speaker 1: two or three years to try to win a super 880 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 1: Bowl with this roster, and if it works, nobody's gonna care. Yeah, true, 881 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,959 Speaker 1: especial if it works multiple times, like he will, It'll 882 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 1: be okay, It'll be fine. Yeah, it's it's I think 883 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:17,800 Speaker 1: it's I love it. I'm I'm fascinated by it because 884 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: if it works, it could severely change attitudes in the 885 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 1: league about that type of stuff, because that the reason 886 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 1: people don't do that more often is because football is 887 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 1: so hard to predict. Like you could push your chips 888 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:32,839 Speaker 1: in the middle of the table and Tony Romo breaks 889 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 1: his back during a preseason game and all of this 890 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 1: hard work is undone by a flukey play. But the 891 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: Eagles did it. They won a Super Bowl and didn't 892 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 1: change many hearts and minds? Did did they go all in? 893 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 1: It seemed like that year they were just like it 894 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:48,880 Speaker 1: seemed like they were doing then what the Rams are 895 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 1: doing now, where they were just like, I think, pick 896 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 1: up this guy, pick up this guy up. The Eagles 897 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 1: added a lot of talent, but it wasn't as you 898 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,279 Speaker 1: think it was. His drastic drastick is a better word. 899 00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 1: I was about to say reckless. The Ms are this 900 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 1: is the Rams are drastic the ram Yeah, I mean 901 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:06,800 Speaker 1: it borders on reckless, which it's gonna I just I 902 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,400 Speaker 1: wonder if it works out I think you have to 903 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,720 Speaker 1: start having conversations about like, how do we overvalue draft picks? 904 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,320 Speaker 1: Do we? But do we worry too much about the 905 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,279 Speaker 1: future when you have an opportunity in front of you. 906 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 1: But the thing is is Odell's gonna have to fit 907 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 1: in up there. He has to. He has to change 908 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 1: some of the ways that he's you know, reportedly you know, 909 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 1: been acting in Cleveland, and and he's gotta you know, 910 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:29,919 Speaker 1: if he didn't get the ball enough there, he's gonna 911 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 1: have to, you know, make sure he gets the I mean, 912 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:33,840 Speaker 1: but I think he I would like to think that 913 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 1: he will, you know, I'd like to think he picked them. 914 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,319 Speaker 1: They got They got a lot of receivers, a lot 915 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: of good receivers. They do. But they're but you know, 916 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 1: when you're winning, you can you can, you know, kind 917 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:45,680 Speaker 1: of deal with that kind of stuff. But we'll see, 918 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: we'll see. I've made the point. I don't remember when 919 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 1: I said it. I just I think O'Dell and Dez 920 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 1: are very very similar players and people. I think, Yeah, 921 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 1: I mean, if they're they're winning twelve or thirteen games, 922 00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 1: I think he'll be fine having a role. But when 923 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: they hit choppy water, that could be a problem. He's 924 00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: gonna be healthy. Yeah, I mean, if he's that's the 925 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 1: big thing. We saw he's still he'd still be running 926 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,879 Speaker 1: in that reverse against them last year. You know, God, 927 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean you know he was healthy and he and 928 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:13,800 Speaker 1: he showed it. All right, real quick. You don't have 929 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 1: to you don't have to go to me. I've done it. 930 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:19,240 Speaker 1: Nicks at thirty one, we said it's thirty five thirteen, 931 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: thirty five thirteen. All right, yeah, all right. So here's 932 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 1: the thing you got to remember. Garrett nuss Meyer is 933 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 1: gonna get in on Saturday night. They're gonna let him 934 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 1: play because the season's a watch anyway. Jalen Catalan's hurt, 935 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: Arkansas's secondaries kind of where we go, Let's go. He's like, 936 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 1: he's very athletic, he can run around, extend plays. He's 937 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 1: got a cannon arm. I think it's gonna be high scoring. 938 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: I think Lsu wins a shoot. Nust Meyer is that 939 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,120 Speaker 1: Nuss Yes, Nuss's kid is gonna play. He's probably not 940 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 1: gonna start. So I don't like thirty thirty one twenty 941 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,880 Speaker 1: seven Tigers. But people that don't know he saw an 942 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 1: Lsu versus Arkansas and and we do have a bet 943 00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 1: on that? Will you here Tuesday when we make What 944 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:02,240 Speaker 1: color is the jersey that it brought us? Jersey? Purple? Okay, 945 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,600 Speaker 1: so Nickolie to be wearing a white LSU jersey on 946 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 1: Monday or Dave will be wearing a Arkansas razorback head gear? No, right, 947 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 1: we will have facebook. Yah, you bring the face. This 948 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 1: is the closest Arkansas has ever had a chance to 949 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:18,359 Speaker 1: win this game. You know, I think I cannot wait? 950 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:20,719 Speaker 1: What time is the game? Six thirty? Yeah? Arkansas is 951 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 1: a road Arkansas is a road favorite. That's disgusting. Come on, 952 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,000 Speaker 1: what's going road favorite? They've been the better team this year? 953 00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:29,879 Speaker 1: Been Arkansas has been the better team this year. It'll 954 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:31,719 Speaker 1: it'll it'll be a fun though. I think I think 955 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 1: we got it. It'll be more fun Monday and it 956 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,399 Speaker 1: will be we'll see, Oh, trust hope. But I hope 957 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:39,359 Speaker 1: that freshman play, I really do. I mean, he could 958 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:42,040 Speaker 1: be great, but I wouldn't mind the freshman quarterback being 959 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 1: out there. Dave, you want to give me a prediction 960 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 1: out Boys games? Yeah? Um, I think. I mean. The 961 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 1: one thing I know is Dallas is going to play 962 00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 1: a better game. Like I said, no, disrespect to the Broncos. 963 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 1: I think it was way more about what they didn't 964 00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 1: do than what Denver did. Uh, it's gonna be tough. 965 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,880 Speaker 1: It's the NFL. Losing gr Randy doesn't help. The Falcons 966 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 1: offense has the potential to blow up on you. Um. 967 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:08,840 Speaker 1: But I think Dallas is they're better. They're going to 968 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:10,560 Speaker 1: play a better game. I do think it's gonna be 969 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 1: kind of stressful. I got thirty eight twenty seven shootout, 970 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 1: Cowboys win, But definitely it's gonna be a stressful affair. Okay, Yeah, 971 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 1: I think the defense is not it's gonna have a 972 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:27,040 Speaker 1: hard time. I just think that without Randy that's just 973 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,800 Speaker 1: gonna kind of mess things up for them. But I 974 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 1: think that the offense will pick it up and do 975 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,439 Speaker 1: their job for both eyes of the ball. They're gonna 976 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 1: be throwing touchdown passes even to a point conversion in there. 977 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 1: Why not Cowboys win? M thinking like thirty twenty six 978 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 1: twenty six? All right, I also think the Cowboys will win. 979 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 1: I think it will be a game that I kind 980 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 1: of agree with Nick. I think Cowboys will come out 981 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,439 Speaker 1: and they will be highly motivated, and I think they'll 982 00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 1: be very focused and I think the better team will win. 983 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 1: I think they win thirty one calling for the blowout, yeah, 984 00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 1: I think thirty one to like sixteen. I think it's 985 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,360 Speaker 1: gonna be one of those games it's kind of lopsided 986 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,320 Speaker 1: and Cowboys just kind of take control early and take it, 987 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 1: just run away with the game. I don't think I'll 988 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:16,520 Speaker 1: be close. Monday is gonna be forget LSU Arkansas. Monday 989 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:19,399 Speaker 1: is gonna be so rough. If if we're wrong, Hey, 990 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 1: if we're wrong, then the whole tone of the show 991 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:24,400 Speaker 1: next week will be very different than anything we've experienced this. 992 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 1: It's gonna go like it will change every single flip. 993 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 1: We're gonna go from planning out Super Bowl parades to 994 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,719 Speaker 1: when does the draft show sea We maybe having those 995 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:34,960 Speaker 1: kind of conversations.
