I did 51 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 3: not even know. 52 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 2: That at Phoenix, right, yes, went out there and it 53 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 2: was hot. That was the game you had to win 54 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: to clinch the number one seed. Remember on the on 55 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: the rate on the way out San Francisco got beat. 56 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 3: Oh I remember that? Can I tell the story I had? 57 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 3: We were on the plane going there, and somehow this 58 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 3: is when you start can being able to watch games 59 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 3: on the on the plane on the plane, and it 60 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 3: didn't always happen, no way, but you can start watching games. 61 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 3: Were watching this game, and then I'm telling you every 62 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,839 Speaker 3: player's mind, I thought it was only in my mind. 63 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 3: I'm like, man, we don't want to we need home 64 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 3: field advantage. We we we we don't, you know, we 65 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 3: don't want to have to face forty nine ers, you 66 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. At and boy with Green Bay 67 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 3: did that right there. I had never seen Mike Iver 68 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 3: run so fast in his life. He ran up for 69 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 3: down the house. Yeah again, And I thought I was 70 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 3: a little thinking that way, bro. Yeah, And so that 71 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 3: was a good thing because even though you don't fear team. 72 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 3: Matchups are everything, man, especially when you have two high 73 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 3: caliber teams. Matchups are everything, Yes, sir, And. 74 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 2: Then you missed the Christmas Day game they played Tennessee 75 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 2: to end the season in two thousand. 76 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 3: Yeah, I went gone, gone, right, Yeah, I was out 77 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 3: of the league. 78 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 2: I remember that game because he told me no more. 79 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 2: Troy was injured. 80 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 3: He was out. 81 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 2: Yes, the backup quarterback, Randall Cunningham, yes, suddenly had a 82 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 2: hamstring pull. He was out, and right the third quarterback 83 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 2: had to start the game. Oh it was cold, Yes, 84 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 2: it was miserable. They got shut out. I believe no 85 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 2: one wanted to play that game, right, well, in Nashville, 86 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 2: and that was another Christmas Day game I remember covering. 87 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 2: So yeah, at least we were home for Christmas. Let's 88 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: put it that way. Because some teams had to play. 89 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 2: I think two teams last night had to play. Yes, 90 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: I don't know how well they played. Six to three. Wow, 91 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: I think I said. I was watching and I said, god, 92 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 2: I can't believe this game was six to three. My 93 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 2: wife goes what sport and it was football. We do 94 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 2: have what I thought we were going to see is 95 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 2: during Siriani's press conference after their practice on Friday, said 96 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 2: that Jalen Hurts was still in concussion protocol. So you're thinking, 97 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 2: if it's Friday and he's still in concussion protocol and 98 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: hasn't practiced all week, it's probably Kenny Pickett starting the 99 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 2: game Sunday for Philadelphia. The game starts at noon Central, 100 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 2: so that evens things up a little bit. 101 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, so. 102 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 2: Both backup quarterbacks having to start the game. 103 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 3: Yes, And thanks Chris mean for breaking that on me. 104 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 3: I saw it on the phone and I shipped there 105 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 3: over there to mix. It's just it's just making even 106 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 3: more intriguing because Philadelphia needs these wins. Yeah, they need 107 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 3: these wins to stay safely in the slot that they're 108 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 3: in and every game because now we have a great 109 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 3: chance of competing heavily against him this we have a 110 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 3: great chance. We've been playing on fumes all year. They 111 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 3: you know, with your quarterback out, we mayn make some 112 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 3: some crossroads, in roads whatever you want to call it 113 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: on this pickey kid. We should be able to get 114 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 3: some pressure on them, man, because unless unless, unless they 115 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 3: want to give it to one guy forty five times. 116 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 2: And don't be surprised if they do. So what Nate 117 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 2: is saying that they can just ride Saquon, Yes, sir who, 118 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 2: by the way, and that's another storyline. We'll do that 119 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 2: storyline first before we get to the quarterback situation. Saquon 120 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 2: Barkley needs to needs two hundred and sixty eight yards 121 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: in these next two games. He's got one thousand, eight 122 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty eight yards right now, and he's trying 123 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 2: to break Eric Dickerson single season rushing record, which is 124 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 2: two thousand, one hundred and five yards. So the last 125 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 2: thing you want to happen is he gains the necessary 126 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 2: two hundred and sixty eight yards against you to be 127 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 2: able to break the record. I saw a story Dickerson's 128 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 2: not all about having his record, Bro, what do you 129 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: think about that? 130 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 3: Yeah? You know, I was to you on our flagship station. 131 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 3: How you got on Dickinson because he didn't break it 132 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 3: in enough time? Yeah, for the last guy, but I 133 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 3: just don't want it to be against us. Yeah, and 134 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 3: missus Dickinson. I watched you break the record. I'm happy 135 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 3: for you, but I'm just hoping. I don't even want 136 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 3: to rush for one hundred yards. I just don't I've 137 00:08:55,480 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 3: never wanted for the Dallas Cowboys to be to help 138 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 3: anybody do anything that's against us, right, yeah, So I 139 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 3: hope we keep him around ninety yards. I hope he 140 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 3: get out of the game healthy and safe, no touchdowns 141 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 3: and around ninety yards rushing. And you got to go 142 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 3: do it against your old team. I think it is 143 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 3: in New York next week, the Giants. Yeah, go do 144 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 3: it against your old well that would yeah, right, yeah, 145 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 3: make sure yeah, yeah, So don't do it against us. 146 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 3: I'm hoping we hold him down. I'm really hoping we 147 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 3: hold him down. I hope we you know. 148 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 2: So Dickerson when he was asked about his single season 149 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 2: record potentially being broken, if he was for it, and 150 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 2: he said absolutely not. I don't pull any punches on that. 151 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: So if you held the record, you know, Everson, when 152 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: Trayvon Diggs was looking like he could break his, uh, well, 153 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: it was a Cowboys record, but it was the most 154 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 2: interceptions in a single season by a player, the eleven 155 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 2: since nineteen eighty one, he was all for of the 156 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 2: record being broken. Right, if you held a record, do 157 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 2: you want it broken? 158 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 3: It just depends on what that record is, Okay, it 159 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 3: depends on what that, Because some records are sacred, man, 160 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,959 Speaker 3: some records will be talked about forever, right, and if 161 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 3: you get if you can hold a record like for 162 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 3: thirty forty years, now, that's. 163 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 2: Something offensive linemen usually don't. 164 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 3: We don't have records. We always a part of people records, 165 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. 166 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 2: And if it wasn't for you, these guys are offensive linemen. 167 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 2: These guys aren't breaking Russil records. 168 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 3: But I don't know. I've never held the record of 169 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 3: that magnitude, so I don't know. You know, you have 170 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 3: to be in them shoes. I don't wouldn't I want 171 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 3: in them shoes. Now. I wasn't even a part of 172 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 3: Emmetts when he broke the record. 173 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 2: Over, but you were part of the yards along the way? 174 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was twelve thousand of that one hundred. But 175 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 3: you know them crucial ones where he got the ball 176 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 3: and they stopped the game, they get even though they 177 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 3: got whooped. 178 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, Seattle. Right. So anyway, so as the story goes along, 179 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 2: when Dickerson the previous record was OJ Simpson, he had 180 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 2: two thousand and three yards rushing, right, but he did 181 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 2: that in fourteen games. It was a fourteen game season. 182 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 2: When Dickerson broke the record, he broke it in fifteen games, 183 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 2: and then he had another game to add. 184 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 3: On to it. 185 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 2: So now he's looking at, well, he better break it 186 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 2: in sixteen games, because if it's seventeen games, he had 187 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 2: one extra game. So we'll see what that happens. I 188 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 2: thought it was interesting to see the list of guys 189 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 2: who have rushed for more than two thousand yards. Obviously 190 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: Dickerson with the post two thousand, one hundred and five, 191 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 2: Adrian Peterson had two thousand and ninety seven, Jamal Lewis 192 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 2: two thousand and sixty six yards, Barry Sanders two thousand 193 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 2: and fifty three yards, Derrick Henry twenty twenty seven, and 194 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 2: I forgot that. I shouldn't have forgot it. Terrell Davis 195 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: two thousand and eight yards. Wow, And that was the 196 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 2: year they won a Super Bowl. Right. Took the pressure 197 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 2: off of John Elway as you didn't have to be 198 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 2: totally him. So that'll be one storyline we're talking about 199 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 2: going into that game and you're figuring that with a 200 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 2: backup quarterback, they're gonna want to run the ball. 201 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 3: It's something about that all offensive coordinator who's thinking he's 202 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 3: gonna outsmart the Holeue Kellen. Yeah, for some reason, I 203 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,439 Speaker 3: don't know why, when coming to the Cowboys when he 204 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 3: was the coordinator, when he played, when he comes against 205 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 3: us as a coordinator, he got approves to the world 206 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 3: he can throw the ball. And not only does he 207 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 3: proves the way they can throw the ball, he want 208 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 3: to throw it long. He want to make it where 209 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 3: they have to hold the ball a long time. So 210 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 3: I don't know what to think about this game. But 211 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 3: continue to think how you usually think you're playing against 212 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 3: the Cowboys, playing of coaching for the Cowboys. Think long, 213 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 3: think long pass, Give Parsons every opportunity, don't be. 214 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 2: Handed it off. Yes, well, the first time around, Philadelphia 215 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 2: ran for one hundred and eighty seven yards on thirty 216 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 2: eight carries on the Cowboys. So they averaged four. 217 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 3: Point nine how many carrier game? 218 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 2: Thirty thirty eight carries, So they ran it a lot. 219 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 2: And remember that game, it was fourteen to six. 220 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 3: It halfened, right, yes, sir. 221 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 2: And so chances are they're going to try to load 222 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 2: up on the run with their with their running back. 223 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 2: Now the difference will be and I think we saw 224 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 2: this in this past. I get my days. Baltimore played 225 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 2: on Thanksgiving Day, right the Christmas Day, Christmas Day, Yeah, Thanksgiving. 226 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 2: That it makes a difference, I think now, I think 227 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 2: Derrick Henry's really good, but I saw some holes that 228 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 2: open up as wide as those window pages. Well, part 229 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 2: of that, I think is the defense has to worry 230 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 2: about Lamar Jackson rushing the ball, So you got to 231 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 2: worry about two guys. You can't just concentrate on one. 232 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 2: Will McClay was doing a he got on the board 233 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: diagram and some plays that they run, and he pointed 234 00:14:55,120 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 2: out that when Baltimore started, they would have Derrick Henry 235 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: kind of offset to one side or the other of 236 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 2: the quarterback. Well, they decided that because of Lamar Jackson's 237 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 2: running ability, they put him behind the quarterback. So now 238 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 2: the defense doesn't know which way he's going right or 239 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 2: likely to go, and it's made a huge difference. Well 240 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 2: for Saquon Barkley, I'm sure it has helped that Jalen 241 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 2: Hurts has the ability to run the football, and so 242 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 2: that makes it more difficult to stop. Just say, okay, 243 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 2: we're going to zero in on stopping him. Well, Jalen Hurts, 244 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 2: keep the ball and run on you, right, So I 245 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 2: think that has helped. You know, I heard Jerry say 246 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 2: that early when everybody's saying, well, why didn't you sign 247 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley other than they couldn't afford it from a 248 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 2: money standpoint. And I know you don't want to hear that. 249 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 2: He's got Jayalen Hurts next to him in front of them, 250 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 2: and the ability of Hurts to run helps him take 251 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 2: defensive tomorrow. 252 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 253 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 2: No, I'm talking about Jalen Hurts for Saku. 254 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 3: Oh okay, same thing right for Lamar and Henry. Yeah, 255 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 3: it's the same thing, you know. Uh, I tell like 256 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 3: this here, Mick. Uh, you just but you gotta prepare. 257 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 3: You gotta be in your you gotta be in your gaps, 258 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 3: you gotta play your responsibility. And yes, uh those are 259 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 3: top ten or fifteen offensive lines and along with great 260 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 3: running back quarterback duos which you still got to compete. 261 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 3: We want to see whether this team will be at 262 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 3: come Sunday at twelve, flex right into twelve. We just 263 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 3: want to see what this team will be. We want 264 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 3: to see what this team. Continue to play hard, continue 265 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 3: to play smart, especially defensively. They've been playing pretty smart 266 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 3: football and being opportunistic and getting takeaways, getting off the 267 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 3: field and on third down. So we'll see. And the 268 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 3: most important thing that Zim and this defense I've been 269 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 3: able to do it but led by partisans, is keeping 270 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 3: people out of the end zone. So can they do 271 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 3: that this week? Can they replicate what happened last week? 272 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 3: I mean it was it was a dirty game right 273 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 3: down to the end of the game. But once again 274 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 3: the defense took away touched We thought it was a 275 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 3: sure touchdown in the end zone with Jordan Lewis. And 276 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 3: then that end of the game, we saw the other 277 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 3: cornerback Bland come up and he thought he was ran over, 278 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 3: but he had the ball, and you thought he had 279 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 3: got ran over, but he had. 280 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 2: You got to make plays, yes, sir, so the first 281 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 2: time around, and I know we got to take a 282 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 2: break here, I said. They rushed for one hundred and 283 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 2: what did I say, one hundred and eighty seven yards? 284 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 2: They held Barkley to sixty six yards? Yes, okay, but 285 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 2: he averaged four point seven. The hard part was Hertz 286 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 2: ran for fifty six yards on just seven carries, so 287 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 2: they did not do a good job of keeping him 288 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 2: in the pocket. He also ran for two touchdowns. Yes, Now, 289 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 2: if I remember correctly, one of them was a tush 290 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 2: push a one yard a one yard run, but he 291 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 2: did get away on an eight yard touchdown run. So 292 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 2: he had sixty six averaged eight yards of carry and 293 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 2: two touchdowns. If they don't have that factor, then I 294 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 2: think the Cowboys have a better chance to maybe slow 295 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 2: down Saquon Barkley. 296 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, they do. They do. All of that plays 297 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 3: a big part in it, man, all of it. Just 298 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 3: come out with the same physicality you came out with 299 00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 3: it last week. Stay in your lanes. Tackle. They were 300 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 3: better tackles last week. So just do those things. Replicate 301 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 3: what you showed last week, and this team should be okay. 302 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 2: All right, Well, we'll continue on mix shots here on 303 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 2: Dallascowboys dot Com and kind of talk about what the 304 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 2: Cowboys need to do to slow down Kenny Pickett, if 305 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 2: indeed he is the Eagles quarterback. 306 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 4: Star Sports Tours is the only official fan travel partner 307 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 4: of the Dallas Cowboys, offering exclusive game weekend travel packages 308 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 4: with pregame, sideline access and photo ops with current players, cheerleaders, 309 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 4: and Cowboy legends.

I don't need it. 352 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 2: Get you just don't go to the game all dressed 353 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 2: up and Nate shows up in his coat and tie 354 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 2: when they got a pregame show from the stadium. Got 355 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 2: to do it, right, man, or a young lady win 356 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 2: or here in the studio. Right, you'll do a pregame 357 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 2: show on Sunday, Right, yes, twelve early one, right eleven 358 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 2: o'clock Cowboys Eagles. And understand that the Cowboys at seven 359 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 2: and eight, would like to do their very best to 360 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 2: win the last two games and get to nine and 361 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 2: eight and at least say we had a winning season. 362 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 2: And as for the Eagles twelve and three, they need 363 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 2: to win one more game to be able to clinch 364 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 2: the NFC East title. I think everybody assumed that was 365 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 2: going to happen. But Washington's sitting there with two games behind. 366 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 2: So if Philadelphia should lose both games and Washington wins 367 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 2: their last two, they finish in a virtual tie and 368 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 2: we'll go to a tiebreaker. 369 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 3: Wow. 370 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 2: So how about that? And this was a team that 371 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 2: was hot on the heels of a first seed in 372 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 2: the NFC playoffs and a bye, so that loss to 373 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 2: Washington hurt them, not as bad as it or hurt 374 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 2: the Cowboys, but they need to be able to win 375 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 2: the game. And now you know the concussion protocol with 376 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts still in it as a Friday, and usually 377 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 2: to get out a concussion protocol, you have to have 378 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 2: an extensive of workout one day, and then you've got 379 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 2: to be able to come back the next day and 380 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 2: be able to show you could do it again without 381 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 2: any repercussions from the workout. So now that it's Friday, 382 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 2: he's running out of time. So chances are it would 383 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 2: seem Kenny Pickett, we'll be able to We'll have to 384 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 2: start the game. And prior to him going into the 385 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 2: game against Washington this past week, he had only taken 386 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 2: seven snaps during the season and only attempted three passes. Now, 387 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 2: he did a decent job, right. They ended up, you know, 388 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 2: scoring thirty three points. You'd have thought that was enough 389 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,880 Speaker 2: to win a game, but in the end they kicked 390 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 2: too many field goals. So you're facing a young quarterback 391 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 2: without much NFL experience. If you're the defensive coordinator of 392 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 2: what you're doing. 393 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 3: I'm doing everything I can to slow down miss a 394 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 3: bar Okay, you got you got to do that. And 395 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 3: now you give them all different types of look blitz looks, 396 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 3: blitz sometime not blitz, different uh secondary looks. I mean 397 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 3: you you just you mix it up on him and 398 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 3: see if he's ready for that. I mean and uh, 399 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 3: like I said, pick your poison when you blitz, because 400 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 3: you can still throw the game well or uh a 401 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 3: saquon out of that backfield. So you have to always 402 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 3: know those two guys that coming out of the backfield. 403 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 3: But you give this kid, uh as many safe, different 404 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 3: calculated looks as you can as the defensive coordinated without 405 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 3: compromising your defense, you know, because they have the weapons 406 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 3: and a lot of times, Uh, these these guys know 407 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 3: that Mter Pickett ain't. Yeah, as what was as in 408 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:59,199 Speaker 3: line with with their routes and the timing is the 409 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 3: word I was looking for. I know their time it 410 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 3: may not be as great as it was with Jalen Hurt. 411 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 3: So you either you got to speed him up. You 412 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 3: got to get him off his mark. He got so 413 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 3: much sacking. He's just giving good looks and bat down 414 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 3: a couple of them balls and keep his confidence low. 415 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 6: So for. 416 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 2: This year, Pickett is fifteen of twenty seven for one 417 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 2: hundred and forty eight yards an average of five and 418 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 2: a half yards an attempt, one touchdown, one interception. So 419 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 2: he doesn't have a lot of experience playing in this offense. 420 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 2: And I'm with you on make sure you stop Barkley 421 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 2: because if he can just rely on that and have 422 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 2: to throw every now and then, yeah, you're gonna have problems. 423 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 2: But if you can slow down bark least somehow, some way, 424 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 2: then get pressure on him. 425 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 3: Yes, right, yes, sir, because. 426 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 2: Young young quarterbacks who haven't played a heck of a lot, 427 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 2: the game speeds up in the pocket. Yes, you don't 428 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 2: want them to get comfortable. You think the Cowboys can 429 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,439 Speaker 2: do it with their front or do they have to 430 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 2: load up? But that's where stopping Barkley comes into play, right. 431 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 3: Right, You stop Barker, slow him down, and put them 432 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 3: in enough third down situations that's beyond four yards if 433 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 3: you third and four, third and five thirty six, and 434 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 3: depending on where you're at on the field, you keep 435 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 3: them on their ends of the field, on their side 436 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 3: of the fifty. Now that makes your coordinator aly itchy. 437 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,880 Speaker 3: You know he want to make sure because he don't 438 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 3: want to be punting that ball, you know. So here 439 00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 3: we go. If you can get him at his reason, 440 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 3: if you can get up and press a little bit, 441 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 3: I would uh really mix up with coverages because if 442 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 3: you press a little bit uh and and and make 443 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,400 Speaker 3: him come off of that first read, that gets Parsons 444 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,719 Speaker 3: in company a second chance to get at him. You know. 445 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 3: But if he coming back dropping back and he hit 446 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 3: his first read, got a swing to the backfield, and 447 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 3: we're not tackling well at which we should tackle well 448 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 3: to get these guys now now that that you know, 449 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 3: that gives them confidence. You don't want any quarterback young old. 450 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 3: If they can get confidence, if these backs can help 451 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 3: them are these tight ends by coming off that first read, 452 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 3: you know they can hurt you. But if you take 453 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 3: away that first read, which is Smith for either Brown 454 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 3: and he and make him go to this second read, 455 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 3: that just that just gives you a defensive line of 456 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 3: chance to get to him. Or he gives coach when 457 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 3: he goes to those double A gaps a chance to 458 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 3: pick one of those gaps where they turn the wrong 459 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 3: way and let one of those linebackers in the on it. 460 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 3: But you gotta hit him, you gotta disrupt him. 461 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, because if he if he gets comfortable in the pocket, 462 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 2: then he has more time to go through his reads. 463 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 2: And let's factor in that he is playing with a 464 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 2: couple really good wide receivers. 465 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. That Advante Smith and AJ Brown. The dudes a beast. 466 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 3: I mean, AJ Brown is your big play guy. Smith 467 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 3: is your mid Smith can do at all. If they 468 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 3: didn't have a J. Brown, you would see Smith doing 469 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 3: some miraculous things at number six. I think it's his number. 470 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 3: This kid is legit. I mean he is special man. 471 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 3: And when Sa Kuan broke on his sixty eight yard 472 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 3: jaunt last week, I saw him just running, just run 473 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 3: down field and catch yeah, catch, just running easily. The 474 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 3: other guy that was chasing Barkley, they was struggling. He 475 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 3: just cruised past everybody, just running and talking. You can 476 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 3: see his hands waving, you know. I mean that's pure speed, bro. 477 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 3: You can run next to a guy that's wide open 478 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 3: and you running and talking to a guy and the 479 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 3: other guy struggling. Yeah. So I'm glad he don't throw 480 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 3: to him as much as they as they should Devontae Smith, 481 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 3: because they have AJ Brown, who's gonna ask for that ball? 482 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 3: You know? 483 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 2: St more he leads. He leads the Eagles sixty four catches. 484 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 2: He's already got one thousand and forty three yards, So 485 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 2: think about that. He's averaging sixteen point three yards a catch. 486 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 3: As AJ Brown. Yes, yes, he's a big play guy. 487 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 3: He's a great contestant ball catcher. I mean, when guys 488 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 3: are hanging up with him, he can still come down 489 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 3: with that ball. He has more than six percent chance 490 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 3: coming down with that ball. So he's special. You know, 491 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 3: both of these guys are special. It ain't who do 492 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 3: you double right? It's you who do you make sure 493 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 3: you tackle, make sure your technique is right. It ain't 494 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 3: It ain't about I'm gonna put the safety over here 495 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 3: to safety over there because he got I think they're 496 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 3: equally good. Now people favor A J. Brown, but that's 497 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 3: because Devonte Smith run intermediate routes like no other. He's 498 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 3: a route running guy, man. And when you got a 499 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 3: guy that can hurt you underneath, that just makes that 500 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 3: thing getting over the top a little bit more easier. 501 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 2: So one of the things that cowboys have done. And 502 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 2: maybe you can explain to everybody how this works out 503 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 2: is in a lot of recent definite passing situations. Uh, 504 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 2: Mike Zimmer has loaded the box. They got six guys 505 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 2: on the line of scrimmage. Yes, now sometimes they all 506 00:31:53,440 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 2: don't come, but if they do, problematic for the offensive line, 507 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 2: knowing who you have to pick up. 508 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 3: The thing about it is they are good enough and 509 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 3: experienced enough. You're not gonna you're not gonna fool them. Now, yeah, 510 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 3: you're not gonna fool but you may fool the quarterback. 511 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 3: You know, the quarterback may be looking up thinking the 512 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 3: guy coming off the left side, but really is the 513 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 3: guy coming off the right side? And they don't have 514 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 3: the hots right, But that that that that old line. 515 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 3: They pretty seasoned, and they pretty good, and they're nine 516 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 3: somebody ten. They gonna pick up who they're supposed to. 517 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 3: And I've seen Barkley and I've seen game, well both 518 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 3: of them block their guys. So what when he does that? 519 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 3: That's why I say it's got to be very calculated 520 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 3: because this offensive line is experienced and they are good. 521 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 3: Where the mix up gotta come is hoping that he 522 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 3: has no rhythm with his Wizards receivers yet, like it 523 00:32:56,240 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 3: even took Cooper rush a veteran guy two weeks. Yeah, 524 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 3: to get into a rhythm. So we if we can 525 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 3: keep him out of rhythm. Because he threw a nice 526 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 3: sesch down in the game last week, and I'm talking 527 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 3: about Picket, but the interception he threw, he threw it 528 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 3: into three guys, and uh, and I don't even think 529 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 3: Brown was kind of expecting he Brown went and ran 530 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 3: little in ren route, kind of looked and he go 531 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 3: three guys just and then he is an interception. So, uh, 532 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 3: you got to confuse him more than anything. I think 533 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 3: you have to confuse the quarterback. 534 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 2: And I think when the Cowboys have been placing that 535 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 2: many on the line of scrimmage, it's not always Michael 536 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 2: Parsons rushing on the outside right, so he's coming in 537 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 2: the middle or he's looping in the middle, and that 538 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 2: causes some confusion, I would imagine for the offensive line. 539 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 3: It does. And because the offensive line in the running 540 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 3: back has the work in concert. And a lot of 541 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,959 Speaker 3: times when you're running games, especially when you have an 542 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 3: outside linebacker or even a corner, sometimes that done eased 543 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 3: up in that back though he has them, but they 544 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,399 Speaker 3: run tackle out in out. You get what I'm saying 545 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 3: now they passing guys and that here here comes this 546 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,360 Speaker 3: this safety or this corner or this outside lineback of 547 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 3: looping coming all the way back in. Do you want 548 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 3: to be sure that you're while your running back and 549 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 3: pick up that defensive men if you say, hey, we're 550 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,439 Speaker 3: gonna pass him out to you, or do you say 551 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 3: just ease back inside and take that and take that 552 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 3: that that safety or that linebacker and loop back inside. 553 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 3: So most people that they're running back just maneuver its 554 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 3: way back inside. A couple of times we were good 555 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 3: enough to let Darren Johnson cut that in guy and 556 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 3: we took care of what was inside. So it's just 557 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 3: and you. 558 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 2: Have like two seconds to decide, right. 559 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's all. It's all on the move. It's already 560 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 3: been preordained. Yeah, but can you can you make it 561 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 3: come to fruition? Is what to deal is? 562 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 2: Because I think we've seen, you know, with the return 563 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 2: of Michael Parsons, the Cowboys sacks have certainly picked up 564 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 2: his return pressure. And it's not all him, but he 565 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 2: does have eight and a half sacks since return, uh, 566 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 2: and a lot of it is him looping inside and 567 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 2: the guard or the center or taking care of something else. Yes, 568 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,799 Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden it's like, oh, look who's. 569 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 3: Coming and what in The speed that he generates is 570 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 3: hard to recover. It's all about with parsons. You can 571 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,760 Speaker 3: see him, but are your feet and feet and hands 572 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 3: quick enough to catch up with your eyes because you 573 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 3: can see him, but that speed is something else. That 574 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 3: speed kills man extra quarterback. 575 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:49,279 Speaker 2: And and and he's going to be he's going to 576 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 2: be ready to eat too, because he wants to get 577 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 2: to ten sacks. 578 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 3: Right, and I think he's he wanted to prove the 579 00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,760 Speaker 3: Philly you know, that he can have success against Philly. 580 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 3: He's tweeted out something. 581 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 2: Oh he said it yesterday. 582 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:04,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, he wanted to. 583 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 2: I don't like Philip. 584 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 3: Yeah he want to. He want to. And and the 585 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 3: thing is, it's all about the matchup. Uh, you've not 586 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:19,879 Speaker 3: had success on the right tackle. And I promise Shane Johnson, Yeah, yeah, 587 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,879 Speaker 3: I promise you if you get four sacks and they 588 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 3: on the two of them on the guard and two 589 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 3: of them on the left tackle, you know, five years 590 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 3: from out about hey man, Lane Johnson stopped it.

As we continue here on Dallascowboys dot Com, 653 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 2: it seems like we forget Zach Martin has been out 654 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 2: these last few games and the Cowboys won four or 655 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 2: five here as he went through surgery to repair that 656 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 2: repair that ankle. So from speaking of injuries, the Cowboys 657 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:50,920 Speaker 2: had seven guys that did not practice yesterday, okay, and one, two, three. 658 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:55,800 Speaker 2: Four of them were starters. Now one of those was Lamb, 659 00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:03,839 Speaker 2: so we can eliminate him. Malik Hooker was rest non 660 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 2: football injury. He did not practice. Nick Vigil, who started 661 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 2: for Kendricks last week, once again did not practice. And 662 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,479 Speaker 2: he told me he hasn't practiced on a regular basis 663 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 2: since hurting his foot against Pittsburgh. That's a long time ago, yes, 664 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 2: And then he comes in and starts his first game 665 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,240 Speaker 2: of the year, plays ninety six percent of the snaps 666 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 2: and leads a team with ten tackles. Donovan Wilson cropped 667 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 2: up on Thursday with a knee. He did not practice, 668 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:45,400 Speaker 2: and I said Vigil, Hooker, Chuma Odogo, who did start 669 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 2: the game, he still got this toe that's bothering him, 670 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 2: did not practice on Thursday. We'll see where that one 671 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,760 Speaker 2: goes or if they have to go towards Tyler Geiton, 672 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 2: because they kind of switched off in the game until 673 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 2: Get missed his block that one time. Which do I 674 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 2: know what you want? You want guiding out there getting snaps? 675 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:13,720 Speaker 3: Not anymore? Okay, The thing is now what you fear 676 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:20,439 Speaker 3: is him. He's already low confidence, lose job confidence, get 677 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:26,359 Speaker 3: even lower, but they've giving him some reps. It comes 678 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 3: to a point where you have to think about the 679 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 3: team and it's overall psyche and great thing happened about 680 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 3: six games ago. A guy who I've been begging to 681 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,919 Speaker 3: play played in his name was awesome Riches. The cat 682 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 3: got out of the bagh. Oh this guy wasn't drafted 683 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 3: in the first round, but this guy played all right 684 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 3: for the first time. He really outplayed your first round pick. 685 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 3: You can't have that happen. You got to stay with 686 00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 3: this bad as bad it's bad, and hope that it 687 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 3: gets it's good. But once you see something better, it's 688 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 3: hard to sell to the fans, and it's definitely hard 689 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 3: for your teammates to be looking like, hold on, man, 690 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 3: you got sixty million standing back there getting beat to death, 691 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 3: and you can do something about it and won't so 692 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 3: when the cat got out of the bag and then 693 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,879 Speaker 3: a tumor came back, which I you know, I did 694 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 3: not want this guy in the game, which I did 695 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 3: not want a dog in the game. Apologized. I will 696 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 3: apologize every chance I get, I'll apologized. He has done 697 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 3: way better than I thought he could do. Right, and 698 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 3: he's been a. 699 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 2: Love which is not great, but he did better. 700 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 3: He did better. Yes, So now the great thing about 701 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 3: being a number one pick is you will get first 702 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 3: in most shots when the season is over to improve 703 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 3: your physical, your mental, and your spirit spiritual standings. You 704 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,840 Speaker 3: got a chance to build. So yeah, I excuse me, 705 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:01,440 Speaker 3: I'm sorry for that. I like that. This kid. Uh, 706 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 3: we'll get another shot at the Cowboys haven't giving up 707 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 3: on him. But you you, you let the cat out 708 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 3: of the bag, and it was let out of the 709 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 3: bag when Austin Richards did what he did, then a 710 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,720 Speaker 3: doga showed up and did what he doing, what he's doing, 711 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 3: you know, and Cooper Rush has been the recipient of that. 712 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 2: Well guess what, yes, sir, speaking of awesome Richards, if 713 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,360 Speaker 2: he's ready, he's eligible to come off and injured reserve, 714 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 2: you know, missed his. 715 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 3: Window. 716 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 2: Choir four games. 717 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, but he's missed a window of opportunity to the 718 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 3: thing about it, and see, I hate it. I got 719 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 3: to bring this up because I promised myself. Every time 720 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 3: I think about it, I'm glad that ain't one of 721 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 3: the guys that Missus Jones got to put on my 722 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 3: Christmas list to sign. We still have awesome riches this 723 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 3: second year. Yes, so yeah, so we got him at 724 00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 3: least another year. So I'm like, man, my Christma of this. 725 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 3: It's getting bigger. It's getting big and bigger. 726 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,719 Speaker 2: So unfortunately they're playing better and better. 727 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 3: Better, Yes we are. This is another test for the 728 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 3: Dallas Cowboys. 729 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 2: All right. I don't think my cohorts. 730 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 3: That your picks and all of that. Oh yeah, I 731 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:16,240 Speaker 3: got your picks. 732 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 2: Let's see if they did it or if they just 733 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 2: forgot because they were off right. 734 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 3: Picks to click? Oh man, we should have been starting that. 735 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 2: I don't see. 736 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,840 Speaker 3: Let's see, well, give us yours. 737 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 2: Well I hadn't even thought of my pick to click, 738 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 2: but it needs to be. And I know we've banned 739 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:46,400 Speaker 2: this because we could pick Michael Parsons every week. I 740 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:50,439 Speaker 2: think he's even more important now because this defense has 741 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 2: to play well. To not have Cooper Rush have to 742 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 2: put up thirty points to run the game. Yes, so 743 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 2: uh And I was going to pick the Cowboys to 744 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 2: win this game until three o'clock yesterday. CD goes out 745 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 2: and I see Jalen Tolbert and for those that are 746 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:17,920 Speaker 2: watching this with his two fingers here wrapped together because 747 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 2: he dislocated the pinky finger, I think maybe Eagles twenty 748 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 2: three seventeen. I think it's a close game, but I 749 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 2: think we've hit the two biggest things. You've got to 750 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 2: slow down Saquon Barklay and you've got to get pressure 751 00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 2: on Picket, Yes, and then you give yourself a chance 752 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 2: to win even though you're on the road because they've 753 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:48,280 Speaker 2: got a backup quarterback. So I know who you pick 754 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:51,720 Speaker 2: to win always, But who's your pick to click? Who 755 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,160 Speaker 2: has to have a really good performance? 756 00:46:54,800 --> 00:47:05,279 Speaker 3: Our inside three versus their inside Threealen Carter, Milton Williams, 757 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 3: and Jordan Davis. They're inside three big stud tackles. We 758 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 3: gotta deal with them. If we can't deal with them, 759 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,600 Speaker 3: this would be a very ugly game for the Dallas Cowboys. 760 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,439 Speaker 3: So Carter leads this thing. 761 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:26,399 Speaker 2: Those three guys, do they remind you of maybe three 762 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 2: guys you had to play against back in the day 763 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 2: against the Eagles. 764 00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, those Jerome Brown and Seth and Reggie 765 00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 3: and yeah, all of those. Yeah, but these guys are 766 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:41,240 Speaker 3: not quite there yet. But I'm telling you, Jalen Jalen, 767 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 3: Jalen Carter is it. He is smart, he is athletic, 768 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 3: he is huge, he's twitchy. It's just like the kid 769 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:54,759 Speaker 3: that just left here last week, Vita Vita. Yeah. Man, 770 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:58,720 Speaker 3: if Vita would lose thirty pounds, he would be unstoppable, 771 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:01,480 Speaker 3: you know. And that's where Jayalen at now because he's 772 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,640 Speaker 3: still young. Vita's been playing seven eight years. But Jalen 773 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 3: is still young, so you know, the bigness ain't bothering 774 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 3: him right now. That's number ninety eight. He'll beast man. 775 00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 3: He is slippery, he is powerful, he's explosive. I mean, 776 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:16,919 Speaker 3: he he is it man. 777 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 2: So which guy's tougher, Jordan Davis or Jayleen? 778 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 3: Give me number ninety eight, brother, Yeah, and then give 779 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:27,359 Speaker 3: me number ninety three, Milton Williams kid from La Tech, 780 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,160 Speaker 3: And then I'll take Big number ninety. Big number ninety 781 00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 3: is a two down player, first and second downright, depending 782 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,200 Speaker 3: on the run of pass. These other two guys can 783 00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 3: play the whole. 784 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,120 Speaker 2: Game ninety eight. Just watching him last week. 785 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's got a. 786 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:41,040 Speaker 2: Little mean streaking. 787 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and I think about it.
