Everybody's fired up because it's Brown's 9 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: Week and we have at and T Stadium to have 10 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: a football game on Sunday. As Cleveland comes to town, 11 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield coming to town, Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, Myles Garrett. 12 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: It's a whole crew. But literally do they know they're 13 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: going up against the hungry Cowboys team led by Mike McCarthy. 14 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: We're gonna get into all sorts of things here over 15 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 1: the next forty five minutes. Once again, a little bit 16 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: early today nine fifteen start time on Thursdays and Friday's 17 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 1: due to the press conference from Mike McCarthy. But it 18 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: is Talking Cowboys. Harrison, Rob Phillips, our resident super Bowl 19 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 1: champion Isaiah stand back, I'm Kyle Yeoman's and guys, it's 20 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: always a little refreshing to get back on with you 21 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: guys every Friday, because we talked throughout the week, we 22 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: preview the matchup. But now it's really kind of getting 23 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 1: down on the the nitty gritty. You're a couple of days away, 24 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: you're one practice away from really seeing or I guess 25 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: yesterday was our one practice to see exactly where we 26 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: might stand in terms of the injury reports. First off, Rob, 27 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: we saw some practice yesterday from Tyron Smith. Mike McCarthy 28 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: alluded to it yesterday and as press conference said that 29 00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: we were going to see some limited action from ty 30 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: But is that what ended up happening? Rob? Yeah, limited 31 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: means you know, he was asked yesterday because we talked 32 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: about it, what's the threshold between not practicing and limited practice? 33 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: And obviously by limited he got some teamwork in apparently 34 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: so and he was on the fan. Mike McCarthy was 35 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: this morning and apparently said he's on course to play Sunday. 36 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: So that's really good news if that continues to hold. 37 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: And we talked about yesterday how Thursday's practice is always 38 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: the key because they don't practice on Fridays and then 39 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: they've got a very short practice scheduled on Saturday, so 40 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: really good to see him there. To Marcus Lawrence did 41 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: not practice again Thursday, but it sounds like they're just 42 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 1: trying to get him to the game, trying to manage 43 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: that knee, and that's you know, they've done that with 44 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: him in the past with a shoulder injury that he's had. 45 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: So you know, I think he's gonna play Sunday. The 46 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: question will be how many snaps and how effective can 47 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: he be? So do you think both Tyrn Smith and 48 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence end up playing snaps on Sunday based on 49 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: what we're hearing right now, Yeah, I think so, And 50 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: I think that you know, we're going to talk about 51 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: this offense, but what they've been able to do without 52 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 1: Tyrann Smith at left tackle, think what they can do 53 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: if he's at full strength and they've got things short 54 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: up a little bit better on that left side. So 55 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: that's pretty optimistic for what they might be able to 56 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: continue to do and build on. Oh man, that just 57 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: gets me excited thinking about the potential there. Of course, 58 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: Lyle Collins, who we thought was going to be returning 59 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: right around this time, it's gonna be a little bit 60 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: longer for him. He still has not practice, has not 61 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: been activated off of IR, and even when that's happening, 62 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: you're probably gonna have to wait a couple of days, 63 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: maybe even a week before he's ready for game action. 64 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: In terms of getting back in there and seeing starting 65 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: time at the right tackle spot. We're gonna talk about 66 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: Tyrn Smith though, really quickly here and the fact that 67 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: if he does return, we've got a decision to make 68 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: on the right tackle position. Whenever it comes to either 69 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: one of the two guys that have come in and 70 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: filled up that left tackle and right tackle position through 71 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: the first three weeks of the season, Is it gonna 72 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: be Terren Steal over it right tackle again? Or do 73 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: you go with Brandon Knight Isaiah, who it looks like, 74 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: at least over the course of the first three weeks, 75 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: has had a little bit more success than Terren Steal. 76 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,239 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't really don't think it matters 77 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: too much. I think those guys are both playing well. 78 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna have to give give them either 79 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: one you no matter who it is, You're gonna give 80 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: them some assistance either way. I think you're gonna need 81 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: to you know, obviously we've touched on it, these guys 82 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: chipping out the backfield, we touched on it in the 83 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: film room. You're gonna need somebody coming out the back. 84 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: You're gonna need some tight end assistance because of the 85 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: techniques that these guys play, specifically on passing down. So 86 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: it really doesn't matter who's out there. They're gonna be 87 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: on an island and they're gonna have their hands full. 88 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: Do you agree it's a lot of musical chair. No. 89 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: I do, and I just believe that it's gonna be 90 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: a lot of musical chairs going on with this offensive 91 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: line until we actually get Leo Collins back back in 92 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: promising news to hear that Tyron Smith was was just 93 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 1: limited in practice. But you know, with him being a veteran, 94 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: he knows the playbook, he knows his responsibility. I don't 95 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: think we're worried about that. We just don't want him 96 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: to continue to have to go through these stinger issues. 97 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 1: But Brandon Knight has proven to us in a very 98 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: short period of time that he is serviceable, he allows 99 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: for I don't believe that he's given up a sack 100 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: he may have, and maybe talking prematurely on this, but 101 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: at the same time, if Tyren Smith is back, and 102 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: if we're thinking moving Brandon Knight to right tackle is 103 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: going to help this team to get a victory on Sunday, 104 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: then I'm all for it. You know, if you get 105 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: a nickname from Zeke, if he nicknames you wore Daddy, 106 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if he came up with that, but 107 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: you're pretty good. I mean, yeah, you got you got 108 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: some talent. So I probably feel more comfortable about Brandon 109 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: Knight than Terrence Steele at this point, just because he 110 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: started more games, and I think holding down that left 111 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: side that's usually not as easy a job as right tackle. 112 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: And it's a good nickname too. It's not a bad nickname. 113 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: You don't want a bad nickname from Ezekiel Elliott because 114 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: of what you're doing on the field. That's not necessarily 115 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: the at least the recipe for success. But in talking 116 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: about the musical chairs, of course, yesterday we hit up 117 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: a point about Tyler Battish or Joe Looney playing at 118 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: the center position and we were split. Me and Heckma 119 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: both thought, hey, let's give the rookie a shot. You 120 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: put the Wisconsin Remington Trophy winner at center and see 121 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: what he can do as a starter against this Cleveland 122 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: defensive line. And then Rob and Isaiah went with the experience. 123 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: They went with Joe Looney saying, hey, let's let's keep 124 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: it the same. Let's not change too many things up, 125 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: especially against a good Cleveland defensive line. But whenever we 126 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: talk about these injuries, and there's a couple of them 127 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: to hit on, whether it is the tackles, whether it's 128 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: in the defensive side of the football, with Layton vander 129 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 1: esh even I'll throw to Marcus Lawrence into the mix. 130 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: And then of course the corners, who do we miss 131 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: the most throughout the three weeks of the season. As 132 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: we're heading into week four, is there somebody that at 133 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: least whenever you look at them being out affected on 134 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: the sideline, that man you would give anything to give 135 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: it back to him. Is there anybody that's sticks out 136 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: to you? Heckma, why am I gonna say, Earl Thomas, No, no, 137 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: don't do that, don't do that. No, I'm sorry, let's 138 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: let's brink it out. I don't want this show to 139 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: go off the rails. Just in the first segment. Okay, 140 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: um oh, I mean there's a there's a lot of 141 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: guys on the injury report, and I mean I'm just 142 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: having to deal with who we have and once you, 143 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: you know, let us know what we were gonna be 144 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: talking about. I started in my mind that the will 145 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: started to turn on. Who is a guy that I'm missing? 146 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: Obviously left Tackle, we know we need him, Layout Collins, 147 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: we're missing him. I just Kyle, that's really a tough question. Man. 148 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: You you're probably missing an iron this morning on that shirt. 149 00:07:53,120 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: But I digress, digress. So you didn't even when that 150 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: ship happened. You didn't even answer that question. That's all 151 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: you do. I want to hear your answer. You know 152 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: what it's God, that's that's a bachelor's stuff. Man. I'm 153 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: just saying, Hey, Kyle, Hey, Hey, just say you know that, Kyle, 154 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: I would I would never do you like that? Kyle, 155 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: Just don't. Yes, you would. Yes, my favorite new member 156 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: of the show other than Rob Phillips or ye are 157 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: both time. Now, can you please give me the answer 158 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: to the question. You didn't even answer it. Who do 159 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: you want? Who do I miss? I miss? I missed? 160 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: Tyren Smith Okay, so that was your your answer. You 161 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: just went on like a like a merry go round 162 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: around it and then didn't actually say a very long 163 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: way of going about it. Isaiah, who you got? Yes, 164 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: I'm going with the lone wolf, all right, the lone wolf. 165 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: His presences is being missed because not only are teams 166 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: averaging five yards per carry against the Cowboys right now, 167 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: but this team that's coming in here averages over five 168 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: yards per carry with their two dogs. So you need 169 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: this dude in the middle. Jalen is not a middle linebacker, 170 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: No disrespect to him. He can play the position, all right, 171 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: just like many people. I can go play punter two, right, 172 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: but that doesn't mean that's what I do. You know, 173 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: Jaylen Smith needs to be able to have the freedom 174 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 1: to roam free and run sideline the sideline, and right 175 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: now he does not allowed to do that. We need 176 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 1: vander eschback. We need him back one hundred percent healthy. 177 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's something that we would get, 178 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: but he is the most miss member of this team 179 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: and they are missing him direly. I love wardrobe Talk 180 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: because I used to do this show with Nate Newton 181 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: and he always took shots at what I was wearing. 182 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: I always part of it. I mean, it's just part 183 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: of being on this show. Um, I gotta go with 184 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: the cornerback position. Take your pick between Cheeto or Anthony Brown. 185 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: They just need more numbers back then, they need more 186 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: options back there. And um, but does Gerald McCoy count 187 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I know, I know he's not. I know 188 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: he's I know he's not on the roster. He would 189 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 1: have been if he didn't have that quad injury and 190 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 1: got the release via injury waiver. But I think they 191 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: could use his presence inside for sure, uh, trying to 192 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: stop the run, trying to get more of a presence 193 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: in that interior push, and they just don't have that. 194 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: But I will say Tristan Hill has done a really 195 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,719 Speaker 1: nice job working in there and battling and trying to 196 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: give him something with the extra snaps he's gotten. But 197 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: I probably would go with corner just because you know, 198 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: Treyvon Diggs is a really talented rookie, but he's the 199 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: one constant back there, and that's that's really challenging for 200 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: a second round pick to come in and be and 201 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: have that much on his plate right now, because he's 202 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: had some good moments and he's had some bad moments, 203 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: and I think that's something that's kind of lost in this. 204 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: And first off, I love your sleeper pick and Gerald 205 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: McCoy because we were so excited about him and he 206 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: looked so good in training camp, better than any of 207 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: the other defensive tackles, and then whenever he goes down 208 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: with the injury, that's a guy that I really wish 209 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: we had in the interior of that defensive line. But 210 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 1: I agree with you on the secondary though, because going 211 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 1: into the year it looked like it was depth that's 212 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: at corner depth in the secondary. You had three guys 213 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: that could start and then another three guard guys that 214 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: wasn't necessarily a huge drop off. But now with Cheeto out, 215 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: of course, with Anthony Brown out, you're limited in your 216 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: options and you had to go get a Brandon car, 217 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 1: You had to call up a Savian Smith. You had 218 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: to find a way to really fill those holes with 219 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: guys that, of course aren't necessarily up to par. And 220 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: I think that's where we've struggled here over the last 221 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: couple Yeah, go ahead, go ahead, heck you get him 222 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: for I'm right behind you. Do you believe that if 223 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown had played last week that he would have 224 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: made a difference in the Seattle Cheeto would have made 225 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: a difference in the Seattle game. I think, yeah, either 226 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: one of those guys would have made a difference. It 227 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: might not have been a huge difference, but you don't 228 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 1: see the guys running twenty five yards untouched down the 229 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: field difference. Kyle. Okay, Kyle, I'm have to disagree with 230 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 1: you just on the meritive. That's fine. Yes, we did 231 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 1: it acknowledge that this is gonna be a very competitive secondary, right. 232 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: We did not say that there's gonna be a competitive 233 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: secondary full of guys that are lockdown corners, right, that 234 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: we don't have not one lockdown corner on this team. 235 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: I think that it's very competitive because there's not one 236 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: person that distinguishes themselves above and beyond the others. That's 237 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,599 Speaker 1: why it's competitive. It's not competitive in the nature of that, 238 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, you have a Ramsey back here, and 239 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: then you also have a Darrell Rebus on the other side, Like, no, 240 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: that's that's not what you have. You don't have any 241 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: of those guys, And these first four weeks have not helped, Right, 242 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter who you would have put over there. 243 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: They're all going to get torched by one of these receivers, 244 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 1: and that's okay. That's when you need your defensive coordinator 245 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 1: to put you in the best situation possible, and he 246 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: just hasn't done that. Well. I agree with you that. 247 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: I mean, in terms of guys who have had extended absences, 248 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,079 Speaker 1: you could argue between Tyring and Layton probably Tying best 249 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: player that they're missing. Layton's the quarterback of the defense, 250 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: so that that is huge. I just I'm just looking 251 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: at it from the number standpoint of Daryl Worley's playing 252 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: safety snaps one week and now you've got to plug 253 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: him into corner just to try to get your try 254 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: to stabilize things. And I'm with you. I mean, the 255 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: receivers that they're playing, they're gonna give up plays. But 256 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: I just I would just feel better about the position 257 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,839 Speaker 1: if you had a cheeto back there at least to 258 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: a big corner that can match up a little bit 259 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: and give them something else to throw at. But they 260 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: haven't had it, and they've just had to make do 261 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: for now. And also, Isaiah, what were you saying last 262 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 1: week whenever we talked about the problems in the secondary. 263 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: What was your one thing, if you had to put 264 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: it down to one word, what caused a lot of 265 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: those issues. Oh, it's communication, thank you, It's communication. Yeah, 266 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 1: I agree with you. Okay. If Anthony Brown and you 267 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: to Elusier are in the secondary, do you agree the 268 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: communication would undoubtedly be better, just solely based on the 269 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: fact that it's it's camaraderie, it's it's at least the 270 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: familiarity in that secondary. I get what you're going, I 271 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: see what you're putting down. I pick up what you're 272 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: putting down. Okay. However, the issues that occurred last week 273 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: primarily occurred with the set with the safeties, right, safeties 274 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: were the one as Woods and Thompson and were back, 275 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: they're looking around that stuff that they weren't responsible for. 276 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: So that's what really got them in trouble because they 277 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: were playing I mean you, and it's kind of frustrating 278 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: to hear let them talk about how we have to 279 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: pull back on what we're doing. Dude, you guys were 280 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: running high school coverages, right. You guys are running cover four, 281 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: covered two, covered three, Like these are the base coverages 282 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: that you learned when you first put on a helmet, 283 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: so this stuff's not complicated. But yes, communication was the issue, 284 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: but it really occurred between the safeties at the cornerback position. 285 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: Guys are just getting beat playing and playing a simple 286 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: Guys are just getting um you know some of the 287 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: some of these zone coverages really turned into man coverages 288 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: depending on whether receivers are aligned at So even though 289 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: they might be playing zone, as long as that person 290 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: remains in your zone, that's man to man coverage. And 291 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 1: these guys are just getting ran by. Hey, I had 292 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: one question for you on that track though, the touchdown 293 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: that and you have to cycle through which touchdown It 294 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: was the locket touchdown where he went across the field 295 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 1: in the end zone and they're supposed to happen. Yeah, coverage, 296 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: Aikman said in the broadcast, it looked like maybe Digs 297 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: thought they were in zone on one side of the 298 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: field and the other side of the field and playing man. 299 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: Is that Is that too much of a complex coverage? Right? 300 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: You know? I don't I don't know that. Just so 301 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: for everybody that's out there, if you guys didn't watch 302 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: Kyle and myself to do the film room breakdown, y'all 303 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: go check that out, but this it was pretty It's 304 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: pretty simple. You know that you guys have those quarters, right, 305 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: so when you hear quarters or cover four, it's literally 306 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: the four of us, right. So we spread all the 307 00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: way across fifty three and a half yards, right, and 308 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: we're all splitting those up into quarters of the field. 309 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: Those are our responsibilities. Now, when somebody's in our zone, 310 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: that's our responsibility, and that's pretty much man to man 311 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: until he does what he goes over to your zone. 312 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: Rob Now I'm like, oh, there's there's literally using them off. Yeah, 313 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: I'm passing them off. That's a red line. I can't 314 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: cross that. That's not my area, right, So he's going 315 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: over to you now, I just it's my job to 316 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: alert you and make you known that somebody's coming over 317 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: to you, right, and when you're playing that coverage, they're 318 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: gonna try to cross you up. Because it does get 319 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: a little confusing when you have one dude in your 320 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: zone and other dude's coming two year zone. It's like, okay, 321 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: who do I go with? You have to go back 322 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: to the basis and say this is where I'm at. 323 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: I have to trust that my other dudes are gonna 324 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: take care of their business. And when I don't trust that, 325 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: that's when I when that's when I get committed to 326 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: somebody that's not I'm not responsible for, and I screw 327 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: somebody else behind me. Rob. I think the most frustrating 328 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: thing about that play is the fact that Tyler Lockett 329 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: went from one side on the goal line to the 330 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: other side and nobody, nobody bumped him at all. And 331 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: maybe that's old school, but man, you gotta touch guys. 332 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: You gotta put your hands on especially in the goal line. 333 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: It's a free release all the way across untouched. I mean, 334 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: that's that's one of the easiest throws. I believe that 335 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: that Russell Wilson will make this entire year which we 336 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: just didn't touch anybody. We didn't throw anybody off of 337 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 1: their routes at all. And to see that happened on 338 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: the goal line, a guy just run across linebackers in 339 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: safety's face. It is I don't know how you fix that. Herry. 340 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: There was another one too, when they were on the 341 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: goal line again and everybody was down in the box 342 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: and they had a tight split, would lock it right 343 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 1: like I had a tight split to the tight end 344 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 1: and Diggs was about half a man to a man 345 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: outside of him right, which means that he was lined 346 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: up outside with outside leverage, meaning he should never get 347 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: outside of you to run to the flat perfect position 348 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 1: per positions. But because because Diggs had his eyes in 349 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 1: the backfield, Diggs was looking in there like he was 350 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: about to go in there and make a dog on 351 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 1: a hit on Carson. You're not getting in there to 352 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: make no hit on Carson. While his eyes were locked in, 353 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: Locke looked at him like all right, and gotten outside 354 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: of him, and he was too steps outside him by 355 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: the time he even realized, oh, it's not a run 356 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: it was, so just do your as we what we 357 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: said in New England and when I said and when 358 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: I was playing with the Giants is d y J 359 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: do your job and stop worrying about everybody else's responsibilities. 360 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 1: Your job is to stick these receivers and play your coverage. 361 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: You're not gonna get cursed out by your culture doing 362 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 1: what dear asked to do. I think whenever you look 363 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: at the secondary the communication could be better. I think 364 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 1: the scheme might have to be simplified, even more so 365 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: than what we had even talked about, because I know 366 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: even Isaiah, Like you said, they're running those high school 367 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: those college coverages, but it still seems to be a 368 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: little bit more complex. Maybe I don't know. It's tough 369 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 1: to fix. It really is. And we'll see how they 370 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: do that against Rafield and this defense. Yeah, you can't 371 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: make excuses. You can't make excuses at all, especially whenever 372 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: you're in the week four of the season. No more 373 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: of this. We we didn't have an off season, we 374 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: didn't have a long training camp. You're three weeks into 375 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 1: the season. You're all professionals. I think this is the 376 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 1: week or you have to see a turnaround or else. 377 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: You've really got some issues on that defensive side of 378 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: the football.

I'm 432 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 1: Kyle Yeoman's welcome into Talking Cowboys. It's Week four, episode five, 433 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 1: And guys, I mentioned this a little bit earlier whenever 434 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: we talked about the defense, and of course the defense 435 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: has its own problems. We have some issues whenever it 436 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: comes to the secondary. Sure, injuries, Sure, there's a lot 437 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 1: of things you can look at and put a down 438 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: or at least a down arrow, a trending down arrow 439 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys on. But one thing that keeps trending 440 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: upwards is this offense. And Dak Prescott yesterday in his 441 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 1: weekly press conference, came out and said, Hey, this might 442 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 1: be the most explosive offense I've been a part of. Now. 443 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: Of course that's only dating back to twenty sixteen, but 444 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: I want to ask and Rob will start with you 445 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 1: on this one. Just how explosive is this offense in 446 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 1: terms of the grand scheme of things in Cowboy's history 447 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: and then also in Dak Prescott's short history with the 448 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: with the franchise. I think he's right, and I think 449 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: it is the most explosive offense so far that we've 450 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: seen since twenty sixteen. And you know what, it's it's 451 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: got a chance to be even better because if they 452 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,160 Speaker 1: can just get some leads in games, you're gonna see 453 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: even more the balance of this offense, because I don't 454 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: think we've seen enough Zeke so far, to be honest 455 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: with you, And we've seen the depth of the receiving corps. 456 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,120 Speaker 1: We've seen a tight end group that has been able 457 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: to withstand Blake Jarwin's injury so far, and we've seen 458 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: them withstand a bunch of injuries on the offensive line. 459 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: So I think they've got a shot to be even 460 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: better than they've been. And they're ten points away right now. 461 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 1: I know it's only three game sample, but they're ten 462 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 1: points away from being right on pace for the most 463 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: points buy a Cowboys offense in history, and so that's 464 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 1: that's really encouraging. But um. You know, they've got to 465 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: cut down the turnovers because not only does it hurt them, 466 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: it puts the defense in a tough spot too, is Zam. 467 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if you really want that record, like 468 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: unless your kids in a city, you know, I don't. 469 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: I don't think you want that record because it insinuates 470 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 1: that you're playing from behind and you're gonna you're gonna 471 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: get yards, you're gonna get you know, obviously you're gonna 472 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: score for the most part when you're coming from behind. 473 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: So I don't. I don't know. That's something about want 474 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: in terms of do I think it's the most explosive. 475 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:35,959 Speaker 1: It's hard for me to say that, Kyle, because you know, 476 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: I came in. I came in my year, my rookie 477 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: year was two thousand and seven, and we had a 478 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: we had a pretty dug on good offense UM back 479 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,360 Speaker 1: in two thousand and seven, and it maybe even better defense. 480 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,919 Speaker 1: So it's hard for me to go ahead and say yes. 481 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: But I think talent wise, these guys have a lot. Man, 482 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: these guys are stacked um at you know, I obviously 483 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: at the receiver position, obviously at running back, where they're 484 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: not stacked his offensive line and they're not stacked that 485 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 1: tight end, so but they are scoring points. But I 486 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 1: want to see them do that against some of these 487 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 1: you know, some of these defenses that are like earlier 488 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: in a game. I guess, let me, I guess I'll 489 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: put it that way. I don't want to say it 490 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 1: against the starting defense if they're doing it against starting defensive, 491 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 1: but I want to see these guys do it in 492 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: a competitive manner, not towards that when they're playing from 493 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: behind and teams are are playing playing off coverage. But 494 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 1: these guys they could play ball, man. I just want 495 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 1: to see them do it earlier. I think it's own paper. 496 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: All the names and all the statistics that you see. 497 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 1: I mean, it looks good if you don't look at 498 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,719 Speaker 1: the records and the record and you look at the number. 499 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: You see that these guys are trending in the direction 500 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: of all three receivers having thousand yards and Ezekiel Elliott 501 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: having a great season. But what does that equate to 502 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: as far as wins and losses? I think you're still 503 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: going towards Mediocreville. And in a five hundred season, this 504 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have been having to make these furious come 505 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: from behind, trying to come from trying to come from 506 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: behind to make it close. And that's just an indicative 507 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 1: of how bad we've been in the first quarter. What 508 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: happens to this team when they actually get an opportunity 509 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 1: to play with a league. What happens to this team 510 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: when they actually find that balance. That's what I believe 511 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 1: we're all waiting to see, because right now, every week 512 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: it's just, you know, it's becoming an event all in itself, 513 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: this offense having to make this furious comeback to keep 514 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 1: us in the game. And I feel like we're talking 515 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: about last year. You know, how many times? How many 516 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: times do we talk about slow starts last year and 517 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: and they were able to dig out of them just 518 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: in time to you know, either comfort behind and win 519 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: a one score game, but most of the time lose it, 520 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: you know, And so that's that's discouraging. But I will 521 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 1: say points are up across the league for for some reason, 522 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: and I think it's got something to do with lack 523 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 1: of road crowd. I mean, you know, I think if 524 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: the Cowboys going to Seattle, I don't I don't know 525 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 1: if if if they put up thirty one points, and 526 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: I think I think they have a chance to get 527 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: that record because they're gonna go into places like Philly 528 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: and Baltimore and they're not going to be dealing with 529 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: that now. The weather's gonna get colder and it's gonna 530 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: be harder probably to air it out. But I think 531 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: they've got the chance to do it. They just yeah, 532 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: playing from behind, you just can't. You can't continue to 533 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,120 Speaker 1: do that and expect to win a lot of games. Well, 534 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: I kind of want to go off of a point 535 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: that Isaiah made just a little bit ago, is the 536 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: fact that you want to see these guys in a 537 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 1: competitive fashion, not necessarily competitive in terms of a close game. 538 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: I mean, we've had three straight one score games to 539 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: start the season, but like you guys have said, it's 540 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: been in come from behind fashion. Really, I think the 541 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 1: one time we may have gotten a chance to see 542 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: that was against Los Angeles, when the fact was you 543 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: were leading fourteen to thirteen at halftime, you had a 544 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: chance in the third quarter to really at least take 545 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: the lead and extend your leads. You didn't have a 546 00:27:55,840 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 1: chance to do it really in any of the three games, 547 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: other than maybe that third quarter against Los Angeles. You 548 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 1: could argue this has been a team that's gotten off 549 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: to a slow start and has had to really kind 550 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 1: of hustle their way back into the football game. Is 551 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 1: that a reason why these stats are a little bit 552 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: padded at the moment, especially in the Atlanta and Seattle game. Absolutely? Absolutely. 553 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: I mean you're you're you're facing the best that that 554 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: teams have to bring to you, usually in the first half. 555 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: So I mean, the first half is when your game 556 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 1: plan is as nice as tight, you know, and when 557 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: you get a lead. We've seen it. Atlanta showed it 558 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: to twice this year, back to back, and they showed 559 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: it a couple years going to Super Bowl. When you 560 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: get a lead, you tend to ease up, right, you 561 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: ease up, you start playing this just kind of this 562 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: blanket coverage on defense, and it's like, hey, you can 563 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: catch it, go ahead, We're don't worry about it. As 564 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: long as you don't score a touchdown. Oh crap, our 565 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: backs against the wall. Shoot you score, right, So you 566 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: start you're you're willing to give up things when you 567 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: have a lead, and that's why you're seeing these numbers inflated. Now, 568 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: I'm not taking anything away from the ability of our 569 00:28:58,320 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: team to be able to move the ball downfield as 570 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: were points, But we haven't shown it against these teams 571 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: in the first half when they're bringing their absolute best 572 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: in the games, as competitive as can be. And so 573 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: that's all I'm saying. And I know we haven't seen Zeke. 574 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: Why haven't we seen Zeke? Well, we haven't seen Zeke 575 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: because we're putting ourselves in bad situations. We're not executing 576 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,239 Speaker 1: on offense when these guys have their best and now 577 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, we have to throw the ball 578 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: to get back in the game. So when you throw 579 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: the ball to get back in the game, guess what 580 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna throw fifty seven times. You're gonna have a 581 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: bunch of yards. Receivers gonna have a bunch of yards. 582 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: Stats are gonna be padded. But you still wanted to 583 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: So what can we do earlier in the game to 584 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: put ourselves in position to be what we are, which 585 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 1: is a run first team. I went to Isaiah, that's 586 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: run first team. I like how that sounds as opposed 587 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: to abandoning the run. And we have to do it. Man, 588 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: We've got to put ourselves in a position to find 589 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: balance on offense. But Isaiah spoke to this a couple 590 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: of weeks ago that teams are going to stop They're 591 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: gonna load up the box to stop Zeke. If this 592 00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 1: football is about imposing your will, we can't allow that 593 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: to happen. And I'm not saying run against a ten 594 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: man front. I'm just saying, Look, we have to establish 595 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: that part of it of our offense so that we're 596 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 1: not throwing the ball sixty times. And also, guys, we've 597 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 1: got to go back over a couple of these games. 598 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: I think just the decisions to the punts that we with, 599 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 1: the fake punts, and all of the things that we've 600 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: had to incur, the mistakes that we've suffered as a team. Man, 601 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: there's so much to try and clean up. If you 602 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: look at all of the past games, and this is 603 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: a team coming into at and T Stadium, The Cleveland 604 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 1: Browns are Taylor made for the Dallas Cowboys. They are 605 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: not going to present formation problems, their deepenses and all 606 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: that sophisticated. They are Taylor made for us in the 607 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: strengths that we have. So look, I don't want to 608 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: call this a feel good game, but just a lot 609 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: of the things that the defense needs to do as 610 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: far as pin their ears back and come a come 611 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: after the quarterback. We can do that in this game. 612 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: If we can play with the lead instead of playing 613 00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: from behind. Yeah, that's how you're gonna see Tony Potter again, 614 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: you know. For I mean now he can now he 615 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: can't put the ball on the ground. But I think 616 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: if that's where you can see all of your weapons, 617 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,719 Speaker 1: when you've got a chance to be more more balanced, 618 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: I just I mean the they it was the disaster 619 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 1: first quarter against Atlanta, but I guess I just point 620 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 1: to that game more than anything and say the fact 621 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: that you could fall behind by twenty points and be 622 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: there for most of the game and still find a 623 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: way to get forty points of winning. I mean, you 624 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: have a chance to be really dynamic offensively. But yeah, 625 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: they're not. They're not where they need to be yet 626 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: in any phase of the game. That's the thing about 627 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: this and that's why it's a little unsettling so far. 628 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: There reminds me of last year because it's complimentary football. 629 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 1: All three phases have to work together, and they have 630 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: yet to have a game where all three phases play well. 631 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: And until they do that, they're gonna have trouble winning games. 632 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: It's gonna be close games. But you know, rob, But 633 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: the way that this offense is set up, in this 634 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: entire team, they're set up to be a dominant force, 635 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: right this, I mean, this squad is stacked. Right when 636 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: you start looking at position by position, all they have 637 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 1: to do is be stubborn on offense. Be stubborn. Right. 638 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: You're not gonna wear down the front nine or the 639 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: front line in the front seven of a deposing defense 640 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: if you abandon the run right like pound the dog 641 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: on ball. I don't care if you go three series 642 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: right and just just freaking punching in these dude's face. Why, 643 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: because they're gonna get tired, right, That d line's gonna 644 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 1: get tired, They're gonna get warm down, they're gonna get fatigued. 645 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: The office of line is gonna continue to build confidence, right, 646 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: they're gonna be imposed their will. Zeke's gonna get after it. 647 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: He's gonna momentum's gonna start building. Then play action starts 648 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: popping off right, the secondary starts getting their eyes in 649 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: the backfield. So you have to be stubborn, and I'm 650 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: talking to kill them, Moore. Be stubborn in in your 651 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: pursuit to establish the run game. Do not abandon it. 652 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: I don't care if you have three three and outs, 653 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: freaking pound the ball right. Let these guys know that 654 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: you trust them, and we're gonna continue to get this 655 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 1: thing established because otherwise you're not going to have a 656 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: successful season. While in that kind of based off of 657 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: what Hackwall is saying earlier that this is a Cleveland 658 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: team that is Taylor made for the Dallas Cowboys, the 659 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 1: one thing that kind of worries me a little bit 660 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: is the defense for Cleveland can force some turnovers in 661 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: the Cowboys offense. Their one kryptonite might be turning over 662 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: the rock because we've seen that through the first three 663 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: weeks already. If you look at Cleveland, they forced those 664 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: top five turnovers against Washington. Now, yes, I know it 665 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: was the Washington football team of teams and whatnot over 666 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: there in the East Coast and stuff for Washington, but 667 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: I think whenever it comes to holding onto the football, 668 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: that's going to play a huge key in the first 669 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 1: quarter is just finding a rhythm, establishing a run, finding 670 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: a way to get Ezekiel Elliott the ball and hold 671 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: onto the ball for Zeke Antony Pollard if you wanted 672 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: to get him involved as well. But how big is 673 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: it actually to at least have that rhythm and get 674 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: off to a hot start rather than slow things down. 675 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,959 Speaker 1: It's imperative, it's it's that's what we have to do 676 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: in this game. And you know, Isaiah sounds like a 677 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 1: coach man. He talks to those coaches cliches when you know, yeah, 678 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: he does have anything that's that speaks to his background. 679 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: And we have to win individual battles. That's just it. 680 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,879 Speaker 1: And Isaiah knows that that's what coaches they talk about 681 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: and they pounded on these players. Win your individual battles. 682 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: The Cleveland Browns are going to crowd the line of scrimmage. 683 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: Each one of these guys are going to have an 684 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,839 Speaker 1: opportunity to win and show that they can win their 685 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 1: individual battles. But Miles Garrett Ogan job, all of these 686 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: guys have the this is in their wheelhouse to get 687 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: to the quarterback and not only just get to the quarterback, 688 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: but create those turnovers. We've got to get in the rhythm. 689 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: We've got to throw these guys off and not allow 690 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns defense to look at the film from 691 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: some prior games and say, look, we can come into 692 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: this game and do the exact same thing to this 693 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys team. We've got to bully these guys. It's gotta 694 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: be bullyball and we gotta take it to him.

All right, first game 762 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:55,399 Speaker 1: of the week, talking about the Bills on the road 763 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: against the Las Vegas Raiders. This a Buffalo team that's 764 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: three and oh the Raiders two and one. Raiders had 765 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,800 Speaker 1: that big win on Monday Night football against New Orleans. 766 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 1: Heckma will start with you.

Rob, Yeah, Bills, Mafia, 768 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 1: Josh Allen slinging around. I think they keep it up. 769 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: I'm going to Bills as well. Bills are tough man. Yeah, 770 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 1: that's a good team. I'm gonna go with the Bills 771 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 1: here as well, straight across the board thirty one points 772 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: per game this season from Buffalo, so nobody's gaining any 773 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 1: ground on that one. All right. How about the Sunday 774 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 1: night game? Are hated Philadelphia Eagles oh and two and one? 775 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 1: I want them to start oh and three and one 776 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 1: San Francisco their fourth straight where they're playing. It's San 777 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,879 Speaker 1: Francisco and the forty nine ers fourth straight game with 778 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,879 Speaker 1: a winless team on the other sideline from them, which 779 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 1: is kind of interesting to start the season. I'm gonna 780 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 1: go with the forty nine ers here, and it's not 781 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: really even close to me. I still think even with 782 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 1: their JV team, men, they should be able to win. 783 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: This football game should be a fun one. Wow. Hey, 784 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:09,720 Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. Go against the Eagles. I'm always 785 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 1: against the Eagles, and I'm sure Cowboys fans out there 786 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 1: will be there as well. All right, Isaiah, who you 787 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: got anybody that's playing against Philadelphia? So the forty nine Ers, rob, 788 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 1: I'll take the Eagles. I think. I think people they're 789 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 1: they're due. They'll find a way that they need to 790 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 1: get a win bad to even have a chance here 791 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,840 Speaker 1: in the division. So I'll take Philly. Man because of 792 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: where we are in the NFC East, we desperately need 793 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 1: for the Eagles to continue their losing ways, and that 794 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: this came this Sunday is so important for us and 795 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 1: our standings in the division. I'm gonna say the Eagles lose, 796 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 1: all right, I'm going to forty nine ers. There you go, 797 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 1: and it is on the road at San Francisco. So 798 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:56,120 Speaker 1: hopefully that provides a little bit of interesting tidbit in 799 00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:57,880 Speaker 1: terms of the East Coast all the way over to 800 00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 1: the West coast, and hopefully the forty nine pull that 801 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: out and help the Cowboys. But I agree, I think 802 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,440 Speaker 1: the Philly I think Philly is definitely do. I just 803 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: don't want them to win. So I'm picking the forty 804 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: nine Ers, all right. Yeah? Now, now I know is 805 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: as we go through the season, if I need a 806 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 1: win to catch up, just I'm gonna take Philly. Take Philly, everybody, 807 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,360 Speaker 1: New York or Washington. Yeah that's fair. Yeah, yeah, you 808 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 1: won't win a ton of those games, my friend, you 809 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: won't win a ton of those games. You may may 810 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 1: lose ground. Uh Monday Night football, This one should be 811 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,959 Speaker 1: a fun one. Because it's the Packers in Green Bay 812 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 1: hosting the Atlanta Falcons. Green Bay thirty five plus points 813 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: in each of the first three games this season, and 814 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: oh and three Falcons team, who I mentioned earlier this 815 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:40,959 Speaker 1: week might be the best oh and three team we've 816 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 1: seen in a long time. And then you've got a 817 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 1: three and o Packers team that just continues to score points. Heckma, 818 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 1: who you got? Well, I know the Atlanta is gonna 819 00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 1: find a way to lose it. So I'm going with 820 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 1: the Packers. Damn it. I am going with a ron 821 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: because they piss them off by after a first round 822 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 1: quarterback that's there's not something you do. So they made 823 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 1: him angry and he's on a rampage right now, and 824 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,720 Speaker 1: unfortunately my guy Dan Queen gets fired afterwards. Most likely. 825 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, yeah, I don't. I don't think the 826 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 1: Falcons are due either. I put I put Rogers in 827 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,879 Speaker 1: the category of Russell Wilson and Tom Brady. If they're playing, 828 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna pick him to win. I don't know 829 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 1: what the spread on this game would be, but I 830 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 1: would definitely take the Falcons on the spread because they're 831 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 1: playing for their coach, They're playing for a chance to 832 00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: get back into the thick of things. But I also 833 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: think Julio Jones is going to be active this week, 834 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,840 Speaker 1: and I think he'll be more efficient than they have 835 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 1: been in the past. I'm gonna take the Falcons out 836 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 1: right here. I really think that they might surprise the 837 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 1: Packers on the road, and not just to change things up, 838 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 1: but when you're all in three, that extra level of 839 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: desperation starts to pop out, and I think that's something 840 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: we might see from Atlanta this week. So I'm gonna 841 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 1: take the Falcons all right here. We go big one 842 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: on Sunday. The Cleveland Browns a two and one coming 843 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 1: in with Baker Mayfield on the offensive side and a 844 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 1: dual headed backfield. You've got Miles Garrett on the defensive side. 845 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 1: Take it on the Dallas Cowboys, who desperately need to 846 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,799 Speaker 1: get back to two and to Isaiah has requested to 847 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 1: go last, so I'm gonna go first, and I'm gonna 848 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 1: make this easy on Cowboys Nation. No fake out like 849 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 1: I've had the last couple of weeks. This is downright 850 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: the game. The Cowboys get back on track, They're gonna 851 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 1: win this one by at least two scores. I'm not 852 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 1: necessarily I'm saying with my chess, I'm not saying it's 853 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,760 Speaker 1: a blowout. I think it's gonna be a tight game. 854 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 1: But I think we're finally going to see what this 855 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 1: defense can do against the regular offense and not an 856 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,839 Speaker 1: MVP and Russell Wilson a former MVP and Matt Ryan 857 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: and a super Bowl caliber quarterback and offense with Sean 858 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:53,720 Speaker 1: mcvayh and Jared goff in La. I think they control 859 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:55,919 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. I think they stopped the run a little 860 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 1: bit more than any of the other teams have in 861 00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 1: the NFL. I think they beat the Browns by a 862 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: couple scores. Hey, well, look, well let me say this. 863 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 1: You asked that the begin first segment. Who do we miss? 864 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna tell you, man, I missed the hot boys. 865 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 1: I need the hot boys to show up on Sunday, 866 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:23,839 Speaker 1: all right, Jeff Heath, Taco Charlton, MALIEK. Collins. I need 867 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:25,879 Speaker 1: those hot boy chains back because I got a few 868 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,439 Speaker 1: guys over here that need those hot boy chains. That's 869 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 1: what I need to happen. I need my deepest to 870 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 1: show up and shut this down. We need just an 871 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 1: easy win. On Sunday. We don't need all of the 872 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 1: actress if funny stuff. Twenty eight seven Dallas Cowboys, Wow blowout. 873 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 1: I think y'all don't think it's close. Okay, I don't. 874 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 1: There's parts of this matchup I don't feel great about, 875 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,279 Speaker 1: and I think I'm flashing. Like I said earlier, I'm 876 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 1: flashing back to last year when we talked about slow 877 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 1: starts and lack of takeaways and turnovers, and every week 878 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:56,879 Speaker 1: it's like, Okay, they're gonna clean it up. They're gonna 879 00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 1: clean it up. And that didn't happen in December. It 880 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 1: is a new team and it is a team that's 881 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: still growing together. So while I think Cleveland has momentum, 882 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: a two and one team that's starting to feel it 883 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: a little bit, I feel better about the Cowboys ability 884 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 1: to get chunk plays offensively and score points. I think 885 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: they've got They are more dynamic offensively than Cleveland, and 886 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 1: for that reason, I'll go with the Cowboys thirty to 887 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 1: twenty one. I love it. There you go, all right, Isaiah, 888 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:29,720 Speaker 1: you requested the go lasts. What's going on here? Oh gosh? 889 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 1: Oh man, here we go? Here we go? Is he 890 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 1: gonna say it? With his chest. We've talked all week, 891 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 1: talked all week about the issues that are prevalent here. 892 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 1: We've also talked about whereas Cleveland is strong and where 893 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 1: momentum is one and two versus two and one. You know, 894 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 1: that's a challenge. I'm gonna go twenty eight twenty four. 895 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,799 Speaker 1: Cowboys are gonna win the game. Have a little bit 896 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 1: more firepower on offense. But I am concerned about their 897 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:09,840 Speaker 1: ability to stop the run and to be efficient running 898 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 1: the ball. Somehow, some way to Cowboys figure it out. 899 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:14,439 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you, there's a little there's a little 900 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 1: piece of me inside. It's like, hey, there's a problem here. 901 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:18,800 Speaker 1: There's a little problem here, So they better figure it 902 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 1: out otherwise it could be twenty twenty four the other way. 903 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 1: But I'm going with the Cowboys this week. I think 904 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a close game. Heck Well went with 905 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 1: the blowout. He said, Nah, this is the blowout. I 906 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,320 Speaker 1: respect it. You said it with your chest. It's a Friday, 907 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 1: that's what this is for. However, I think this is 908 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 1: gonna be a really good game. I'm there. I'm right 909 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 1: there with Isaiah and with Rob. There are problems to 910 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 1: be fixed. There are discussions to be had, but I 911 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,359 Speaker 1: think you're just a better football team even with some 912 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,319 Speaker 1: of the problems that you're dealing with. And that's why 913 00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:48,040 Speaker 1: I think all four of us win with the Dallas Cowboys. 914 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 1: That's gonna do it here for this week of Talking Cowboys. 915 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 1: So glad you've been with us here over the last 916 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: five days.
