15
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: there's a big difference between when Amber doesn't. Yeah, I

16
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,600

Speaker 1: me not to ever do that in front of you.

18
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,280

Speaker 1: camp on Thursday night one time, and then on Friday

20
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 1: I showed Derek and he just like straight, just Rick

21
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 1: Flair just punched you, yeah, backhanded in the chest, and

25
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,920

00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: and this is a different that was a different night.

36
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I remember you picked up a

37
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: guy and body slammed him on a truck. But that

38
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: wasn't because of that wasn't that we were just kind

39
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: of playing around. Yeah, body slammed people all the time

40
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: when I'm just having fun. Yeah, except for the funny

41
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: part was there's there was two people in the whole

42
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: parking lot, and those two guys happened to be this

43
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: guy's truck, and he was like, and we did Dennis

44
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 1: truck too. That was I felt bad, Yeah, really bad,

45
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: sorry in there because I wasn't the one body slamming

46
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: or getting body slammed. I was just white observer. Why

47
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 1: Jennithori and White like what they have to do with

48
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: anything providing context on texts. All right, let's talk about

49
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: Cowboys versus Eagles before we do that, though, we do

50
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: need to talk about some injuries. Um yesterday, pretty much

51
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: the same guys that didn't practice on Wednesday didn't practice

52
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: again yesterday, except for Dez Bryant, who was full yesterday,

53
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: which we said in during the show yesterday, if he's

54
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: you know, if he's gonna if hectices the next day,

55
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 1: it really was just kind of a day for them

56
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 1: to let him kind of heal a little bit more.

57
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: But Dan Bailey, Jeff he Sean Lee, Tyren Smith all

58
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: did not practice due to their injuries. Of those four,

59
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: do you expect that any of them will be ready

60
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: to play comes Sunday? If any of them play, it'll

61
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,119
Speaker 1: be tyrant, and that's I think you can rule Dan out.

62
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: I think you can rule Sean out. Who's the third

63
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: one besides Jeff, I think you can rule Jeff out.

64
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: I think Xavier Woods is going to start at safety

65
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: this week, and then that just leaves Tyrn, which keep

66
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: an eye on practice today, and even if he doesn't practice,

67
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: that's I mean, when you know Tyron Smith like that's

68
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: that doesn't necessarily mean he won't play. I know there

69
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: are reports out there yesterday that he was out, and

70
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: he might be, but I think that's premature. I think

71
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: today is going to have a lot to do with

72
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: how they feel about him. So what you're hearing is

73
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: that it's not it's not a foregone conclusion that Tyrn's

74
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: out at this point, as the reports are saying yesterday.

75
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: It still is a we're waiting to see how he

76
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: responds yesterday. In the end, again to the will find

77
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: out about three o'clock today, because they'll you think they'll

78
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: list him as out on a Friday if he I

79
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: mean that they've never done that before ever. I don't think.

80
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean they ruled Tyron out on Saturday last week.

81
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: I guess talking about Tyranyo. Yes, no, but they kind

82
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: of had to last week. I mean, once he's not

83
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 1: on the plane, right, it's gonna filter out anyway. That

84
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: was Saturday, Yeah, right, But I'm no, I think they

85
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: they'll probably rule Dan out. They'll probably rule maybe they'll

86
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: rule Jeff and Sean out. But Tyrn, I would be

87
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: surprised if he's ruled one way or the other today.

88
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: I would think they'd want to hold that as tight

89
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: as they could all the way up till game time,

90
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: and that like usually I roll my eyes at that stuff,

91
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: Like they know right now that Sean Lee's not gonna play,

92
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 1: and they'll they'll list him as questionable today whatever. I

93
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,679
Speaker 1: don't think he'll play. I think they know he won't play, Tyrn.

94
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,679
Speaker 1: I legitimately believe that they'll try to hold that open

95
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: as far as ninety minutes before kickoff. Like he's an

96
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: all pro, he's a tough guy. He can If there's

97
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,359
Speaker 1: anybody that can fight through it all the way up

98
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 1: until when they have to rule him out, it's probably him.

99
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: And there certainly is a chance that you give him

100
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: today and tomorrow, and it is a night game on Sunday, right,

101
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: you give him that amount of time, maybe he does

102
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 1: start to respond to whatever you know, battery of treatment

103
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 1: they're giving him and feels like maybe by Sunday night

104
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: he's able to go. Who knows, But I agree with you.

105
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: I think you kind of wait and see rather than

106
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: just closing the book on it. Today. He is a

107
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: true wait and see. Like ninety percent of injuries, you

108
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: kind of have an idea. But he's yeah, he's up

109
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: in the air, all right. So let's run through inactive's

110
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 1: really quickly. We've got Dan Bailey shan Lee. As you

111
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: said you think that they're probably out. I would assume

112
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,239
Speaker 1: assume that's accurate. Jeff Heath, I would assume is accurate.

113
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 1: But in the event he wasn't with Cheeto Baby the

114
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: guy that would again be inactive as he was last week.

115
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: Or do you think at this point they're definitely gonna

116
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: make him active? I think with I wonder because Wickery,

117
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: Rod Marinelli and you gotta keep this stuff in mind too.

118
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 1: Rob Marinelli said yesterday that Cheeto has been working at

119
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: safety because that where they need the numbers. Right, So

120
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: if Jeff can go, Cheeto hasn't been playing corner all week.

121
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: And I mean you know he could probably do it,

122
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: but you've been prepping him to play safety, and so

123
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: maybe he would be the guy that sits if Jeff

124
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: can play. That's just a spitball from me, but it

125
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: seems like it would make sense. Like you, I mean,

126
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: and Ben Wicker, He's obviously been playing corner. Why would

127
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 1: you throw a guy out there who hasn't been practicing

128
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: at corner and who hasn't played in six weeks, you know,

129
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: in a situation like that, if Jeff can go, but

130
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: I don't think Jeff will go. So I think Xavier

131
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: Woods is your starting safety and Cheeto will be more

132
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: of a safety in this game to help fill that loss. Okay,

133
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 1: so then you've got Chaz Green or Tyron Smith. My

134
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: assumption is that if Tyron is active, Chad's going to

135
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: probably be the guy that finds himself being inactive, and

136
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: I would assume that's probably gonna be the way that

137
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: it is the rest of the season. You guys agree,

138
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: We'll see how Byron Bell plays, but yeah, probably, and

139
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: then unless you have other injuries where you know, I

140
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: think Chazz is like your backup tackle guard on game day.

141
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think for the most part, whoever this

142
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: third tackle is is going to be inactive, so it

143
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: looks like he's the third tackle now unless it's Tyron Smith,

144
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: of course, so I would say Tying or Chazz like

145
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: you had it. You guys like the move of Byron

146
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: Bell being the start of this week if they if

147
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: reports are accurate, it's hard to argue against it. Like

148
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't feel great about it, but I

149
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: do something. Yeah, you have to change, I don't. You

150
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: just can't throw that out there again like that. And

151
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: I think I said earlier in the week that that

152
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: is much about the I'm sorry, Chazz probably can't play worse,

153
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: but that doesn't mean he deserves a chance to prove

154
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: me right or wrong. You know, I mean does getting

155
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: Chazz Like you said, you just can't roll that back out.

156
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: Do you think that's also in part because just like

157
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: we all saw it, the players saw it, and from

158
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: a level of yeah, the players just knowing that, Look,

159
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: you gotta step it up or you can't be out there.

160
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: You have to make a move, if not for just

161
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: the right move for your locker room. Yeah, the offense

162
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: had no shot. They knew it. They talked about it.

163
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: You talked about it on the bus going back to

164
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: the airport. I mean they're they're talking about it, you know,

165
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 1: and how they couldn't function on offense at all. You

166
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: have to make some kind of change, and you think

167
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: that that's going to be better than him just working

168
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: on his technique. I wonder, I hadn't really thought about that.

169
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: But you know, during the season, our view of the

170
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: team is so much more restricted. Like at camp, we

171
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: get to watch practice from like eight feet away. You

172
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: can hear the things they're saying to each other. You

173
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:38,959
Speaker 1: can some of them pretty viold, right. Well, I mean,

174
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: like it's normal at training camp if somebody's struggling, like

175
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: you'll hear guys be like, get this bum off the field,

176
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: get the next guy on here. And that's the Jason

177
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 1: Witten words like yes, not no, that's hardcore dude. Well

178
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: and that's the nice way of saying it. Like I

179
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: left out some words, but like I want, like I

180
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: wonder if that's happening at practice here, like we don't

181
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 1: get to see the real meat of practice and even

182
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: the parts of practice we do get to see where

183
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: one hundred two hundred feet away up in the stands,

184
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: you know, So see I get the impression that does

185
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 1: change when you get to the season, because when you're

186
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,199
Speaker 1: in a training camp, it's a lot of guys, A

187
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: lot of guys are gonna get cut. Almost half the

188
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 1: guys out there are not going to be with the team.

189
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,959
Speaker 1: Then I kind of feel like personally, I feel like

190
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: once you get to that fifty three, Yeah, it tightens

191
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: in a lot more and there's a lot it's almost

192
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 1: us against the world. So you don't want to be

193
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: rate him too much because you know he still has

194
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 1: to go out there and play for your team on Sundays, right,

195
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,319
Speaker 1: And like training camp is all about training camp is

196
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: all about trying to get better too, Whereas like, no,

197
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: I mean, you're in you're in it, and there's not

198
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 1: a whole lot you can do other than just hope

199
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: for the best. But I wonder, like, I like, if

200
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: he's struggling that bad in practice, I wonder what those conversations.

201
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 1: I think it's it's pretty evident. I mean, just go back.

202
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: That's just the nature. It's not just the Cowboys, it's

203
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: the nature of the league. I mean the safety a

204
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,319
Speaker 1: corner gets beat on a touchdown, he turns and points

205
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: to the safety. The safety's pointing at him. I mean,

206
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 1: it's not it's not my fault. Wasn't my ass on

207
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: the line. The receivers are saying, well, I did my job,

208
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: I ran my route. I mean, they're all they're all

209
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: in sea ya mode every time. So I think that

210
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: they're all if they have a chance to point a

211
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: finger at somebody else and or you know, change this

212
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 1: or fix this so I can do my job. I

213
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 1: think they do it. I don't think it matters if

214
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: there's ninety on the roster of fifty three. Well, one

215
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: of the things I've heard all week from different guys

216
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: Jason Witten, Travis Frederick, Byron Bell talking about Evan Dak

217
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: Prescott just talking about Chas Green, is that he needs

218
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: to work on his confidence. And that's the one word

219
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: I keep hearing from everyone in regards to him. How

220
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 1: much of that do you guys? Believe that it is

221
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: his confidence and he just needs to improve in that

222
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: area in order to be able to play better. That

223
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: sounds good, but look like he's getting benched, so that's

224
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: not going to help the confidence in going down. And yes,

225
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 1: yesterday he said he's like, I'm a pretty confident guy.

226
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 1: I know what I can do. I just need to

227
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 1: keep going out there and do better. I think that's

228
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: the first step, right. I mean, if you don't have confidence,

229
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: and everything else becomes kind of irrelevant, right, So I

230
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: think that's yes, that's important. At the end of the day, though,

231
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 1: even if you have confidence, if you don't have the skill,

232
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: if you don't have the technique, you're just gonna be

233
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: a confident guy keeps getting well. But sometimes confident can

234
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: get you in trouble. I mean, that's that's it can

235
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: if you're like, okay, let's for instance, in this case,

236
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: there he is out there, like I can get that guy.

237
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: I can. I can get him, you know, he can

238
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: line up way out there, but no problem because I

239
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: can still. I did it in high school. I used

240
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: to get that, you know. And then all of a sudden,

241
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 1: the technique is lazy and he tries to get over

242
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 1: there and his feet aren't quick enough. Then his confidence

243
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: that he can block anybody or do anything can get

244
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: you in trouble. It's like that guy. It's like that

245
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 1: guy at the bar that's confident that he can whip

246
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: everyone's ass and he can't, and then he ends up

247
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: on the ground, right because waking up three minutes later,

248
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 1: right what happened. He was pretty confident though, and he

249
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: let his mouth do the talking. Yeah, But I don't

250
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: think the confidence in the definitely in the bar case.

251
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 1: I don't think the confidence in the case of the

252
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 1: left tackle is what gets him in trouble. In that

253
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: what got him in trouble is that he didn't have

254
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: the technique to back it up. Confidence is fine, but

255
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 1: if your technique is bad, if your skill is bad,

256
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: then you're still not going to be good. And that's

257
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 1: what I don't I don't think there's ever a problem

258
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: with having confidence. I think the problem becomes you just

259
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: don't have the right technique of the right skill to

260
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: be able to back up that kind like it's like

261
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: Ryan Switzer thinking that he can get around the corner

262
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: on a punt and just takes it wide and goes

263
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: like eight yards back because he's confident that he's a

264
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: better example, That's what I mean. Sometimes the confidence because

265
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: you've done it before, but even though it was in

266
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: high school on a Friday night and not here against

267
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: guys that are like now just doing others. That's kind

268
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 1: of what I mean is that his confidence is that yeah,

269
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: I know what I can do. It's like, well, you

270
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 1: really haven't proven it. I don't know how you can

271
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: still be confident in a situation like this. I gave

272
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: up six sacks to one guy. I couldn't be confident.

273
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: But he's got to get that back because even if

274
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: he has a skill as a technique and has no confidence,

275
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: then I think he's probably doomed to feel I think

276
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: if you don't have often is, I don't think you

277
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: can be successful. I don't the next time. I think

278
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,959
Speaker 1: he plays as the preseason maybe and maybe rightfully so

279
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 1: you can get it back then. Yeah, all right, let's

280
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: let's finish out this list of inactives. I think Daniel Ross,

281
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,719
Speaker 1: Justin march Lillett, and Blake Jarwin are the three you

282
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: would guess. Do you think that because of there are

283
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,959
Speaker 1: two questions there, do you think that, with the linebacker

284
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 1: situation as it is, that maybe Justin march lillet makes

285
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: it to the active roster and or Blake Jarwin kind

286
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 1: of the same thing you have right now, Um Swaying

287
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: that's listed as question I mean not questionable, but when

288
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: he's been limited in practice, do you think maybe that

289
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 1: pushes jarr went up to the active roster. I guess theoretically, um,

290
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: you know, Jeff could could be downgraded today, but typically

291
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: if you're practicing at the start of the week, that's

292
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 1: a good sign that you're going to be available. So

293
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:57,199
Speaker 1: I assume it'll be Jarwin down. And yeah, the linebacker

294
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: problems her, I mean that's something to consider. But you

295
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: got Jalen, you got Durant, you got Hitch, you got

296
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 1: Wilson wilbur I was gonna say, don't forget Wilbur So.

297
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,959
Speaker 1: I mean that's still only five linebackers though, I mean,

298
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: assuming Lee's gonna sit, but you need more. They've played

299
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 1: with it. Yeah, And I also like, where else are

300
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: you gonna get this other inactive from? I mean, you

301
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: could maybe sit too defensive linemen. You're inactive Bailey Lee

302
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: h I'm thinking I'm gonna be optimistic Green Heath, Ross,

303
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 1: march Lillard, and Jarlin. My only other idea, like, if

304
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: you absolutely feel like you have to sit, I mean,

305
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: if you absolutely feel like you need march Lillard up,

306
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: you could sit Lewis Neil too if you wanted to,

307
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 1: then you only go in. Actually Neil Neil might be

308
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: the one that sits because again, going back to that conversation,

309
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: you want a one technique like how many I mean,

310
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: and and I think that was part of the problems

311
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: last week. I mean, there's so many problems it's hard

312
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: to point too. You didn't have enough one technique. I

313
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't active like and he like the

314
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: opportunities that he got. He was pretty good, which is

315
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: why I think it would be weird if they sat him,

316
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: but you got Richard ash And then I know MALIEK.

317
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: Collins is playing one, but he's not like a true

318
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: one technique, So and he has an injury right now

319
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: Ross and well he's yeah, he's played through that for

320
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: three weeks. But still, I mean, yeah, Ross could be

321
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: that guy if you absolutely feel like you need it.

322
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think the lack of true

323
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: one technique as a as a in the Grand scheme,

324
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: maybe that would help, but that I don't think that's

325
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: why they lost it. I mean, if you needed a spot,

326
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: you can always go with Noah Brown, you know, but

327
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 1: I don't like that idea. With Dez's knee being what

328
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: it is though, I don't know, but I don't He's

329
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: been on the injury report now often then he hasn't

330
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 1: been the last few weeks, I know, I mean, and

331
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 1: they're starting to. I mean, Noah Brown is in there

332
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: as especially around the goal line. He's gonna get a

333
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: touchdown at some point here. Is that gonna be your

334
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: bold prediction? He ain't go at all? That got another way,

335
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: he really might in a game like this where it

336
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 1: could be kind of high scoring and you kind of

337
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: need some different kind of touchdowns, some different scoring options.

338
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: I got a different I'm just trying to figure out

339
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: that other prediction yet an offensive tackle, Sean Lee, Jeff Heath,

340
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: Dan Bailey, Justin March, Lillard, Blake Jarwin, Daniel Ross, and

341
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: a defensive tackle. I'll say, yeah, I think that's probably

342
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: that's where your in actors are probably gonna come from.

343
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: All right, Um, here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna

00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: talking Cowboys versus Eagles, We've got a game of SEU

00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: know that we're about to play and then later in

Speaker 1: the show, we're gonna get some crazy predictions and predictions

391
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: for the game, so it make sure you stay tuned

392
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:03,400
Speaker 1: for that. Amber. Okay, you guys ready Yep, Dallas goes

393
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: back to scoring at least thirty points. See, Um, I'm

394
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna go no on this one. I'm gonna

395
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 1: go no. I am too, I'm gonna go no. If

396
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 1: they win this game, they're gonna have to do it

397
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: holding Philadelphia down a bit. I don't think they're gonna

398
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: outscore Philadelphia. Part of my prediction. I can't. I can't,

399
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: in good conscience, having watched them score a touchdown against

400
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 1: Atlanta say that they're gonna put up thirty on one

401
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,920
Speaker 1: of the league's best defenses that is awesome at making

402
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: people one dimensional. I'm not saying they can't win this game, right.

403
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 1: It won't be about outscoring the thirty points. I don't

404
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 1: think so. Yeah. Okay, Mike Nugent does not miss any

405
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: field goal or extra points see for no other reason

406
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: than just belief. Now, see if he can hit four

407
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: or five in the driving rain, and he probably feels

408
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 1: bad about the one he missed on on days, Here's

409
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 1: what you do with anything, does he'll be better, because

410
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,920
Speaker 1: he'll be better. Here's what I'm gonna say, no, is

411
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 1: because like all those misses last year for extra points,

412
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: that's a mental thing. I was I was hoping that

413
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 1: he stayed on a nice run of actually making makeable

414
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 1: field goals. As soon as he misses one that's makable.

415
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 1: Now I get worried because I wonder if it becomes

416
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 1: a mental thing for him as the extra points were

417
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: last year. He's becoming an iron man. He has hit

418
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: it's the iron twice. Out of all that space, there's

419
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 1: like two small points that you probably shouldn't it. And anyway,

420
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 1: all those guys that practice spend all this time throwing

421
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 1: the ball forty yards to try to hit it and

422
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: hit hit the upright and that's a cool little game. Yeah,

423
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 1: he does it in the game twice. So I have

424
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: to say, I'm I'm worried about where he goes from here.

425
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe he gets them back on a roll and

426
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 1: he's hitting them all I hope. So I just know

427
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 1: that that was the part I was worried about with

428
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 1: him coming in was that last year it seemed like

429
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 1: there was a mental issue with him kicking those extra points,

430
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 1: And I didn't want him to get into a rut

431
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: like that here, and I saw him a little bit worried.

432
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,159
Speaker 1: One isn't a rut before we move You're right, but

433
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: it does worry me a little bit. It should. Dan

434
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: Bailey's the best kicker in the NFL. Like you, I mean,

435
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: you shouldn't feel good about it, but you never know. Yeah,

436
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,919
Speaker 1: what's that? Look? He is the best. Um, she's got

437
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 1: a Dan Bailey poster at her desk. She's a fan.

438
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 1: Oh I thought she's sucking about her her show today.

439
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he is coming into the studio to playing

440
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 1: no Moss. Okay, before we move on with the others,

441
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 1: c no, no. This is a question from Twitter talking

442
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: about Mike Nugent. If he does not have a good,

443
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: perfect game this time, do you guys expect any changes

444
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 1: to happen if he had been while we wait for

445
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,479
Speaker 1: Dan Bailey. When you say changes, are they, I assume

446
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: they're saying go out and get another kick if he has,

447
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: If he hasn't missed like he did last week, it'll

448
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: be something that gets talked about. Maybe even they'll bring

449
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: some guys in for sure, Like do they care about

450
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: hurting his confidence. He's a temporary kicker anyway, Like he's

451
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 1: a rent a kicker, like if he if he misses

452
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 1: from thirty eight again, or if he misses an extra

453
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: point or even has some ugly looking extra points. I would.

454
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: But the problem is everybody is out there right now

455
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: probably has the same warts, right Oh no, yeah, Like

456
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: you're not gonna find Dan Bailey out there, but what

457
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,440
Speaker 1: like whatever, Like you're costing me games and I'm not

458
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 1: invested in you, in you just gotta get rid of

459
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: you and try to know the guy. That's what happened,

460
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: Like we don't We don't know about that life, or

461
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,719
Speaker 1: at least we haven't in recent years because Bailey's been

462
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,360
Speaker 1: they cannot know about that life exactly. So seeing that life,

463
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: if you don't have a kicker, like it's not unusual

464
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 1: for this stuff to happen multiple times in the seasons,

465
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: just so I would. Yeah, Okay, Cowboys hold the Eagles

466
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 1: under one hundred and fifty yards rushing without Lee on

467
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: the field, under one hundred and fifty yards rushing. No,

468
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:58,439
Speaker 1: they're averaging that they're average in the two games. Lead

469
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 1: was out against Saint Louis and Green Bay was one

470
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 1: sixty four. They gave up one sixty and one sixty

471
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 1: eight in those games. You can say what you want

472
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: about Ty Gurley. The Packers are not a good running team.

473
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: They're not, and they ran for one sixty. The Eagles

474
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,399
Speaker 1: are a good running team, like they got great backs

475
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,719
Speaker 1: and a decent line and a quarterback who can keep

476
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 1: defenses honest, I want to say see. And the reason

477
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: why I want to say see is because I think

478
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: that I think that their issues when Lee was off

479
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 1: the field, I think were more related to the fact

480
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: that Jalen had to be on the field. I don't

481
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,239
Speaker 1: expect Jalen to be on the field as much as

482
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 1: he's been on the field in those games, and I

483
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 1: so and so because of that, I want to say

484
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: that I think there are other parts of this defense

485
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 1: that are really good. And I think those parts with

486
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 1: a good veteran linebacker like Justin Durant. I'm not saying

487
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,919
Speaker 1: great now, He's not Sean Lee, but a good veteran

488
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 1: linebacker taking those snaps versus Jalen taking those snaps, I

489
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,159
Speaker 1: feel a lot better about that. So I think they

490
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: can play much better than giving up one hundred and

491
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 1: fifty yards rushing. So I'm gonna say, see on it, Nick,

492
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 1: see Nicks just like see seeing. No kind of forgot

493
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 1: the question. They need hit one hundred and fifty yards. Yeah,

494
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: one hundred fifty Cowboys, they won't get there. They won't

495
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 1: get it. They need hit yards. They need hitch to

496
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: have the game of his life. They do, Okay, Dak

497
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 1: will throw over two hundred and fifty yards see see

498
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: see as easy Cowboys. Defense will force at least two turnovers.

499
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,239
Speaker 1: They gonna win. If they're gonna win, they're gonna need

500
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: they will force two turnovers. I'm not sure it'll be

501
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:45,360
Speaker 1: the defense getting both special teams. Special teams will get one.

502
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: But yeah, I see two turnovers. Um how many two

503
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,239
Speaker 1: takeaway games? And they did it against Washington, and they

504
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 1: did against San Francisco. That did they do it against? Um?

505
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,439
Speaker 1: What was the third win? And they know they got

506
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: one against Kansas City. One thing I do think I

507
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 1: remembered seeing you may have seen the step WinCE has

508
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: had seven fumbles. I don't know that they're all lost,

509
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,159
Speaker 1: but seven fumbles I think that I don't know that

510
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 1: off the top of my head. I need to go

511
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 1: back and look that up. I want to say, I

512
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 1: saw that he has seven fumbles this year, which that

513
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 1: helps because you and I think it was the defensive

514
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: coordinator Rod Marinelli. I think he said an interview earlier

515
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: this week also he talked about the fact that it's

516
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 1: facing a quarterback like this, actually you have a better

517
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 1: shot of getting the ball out of his hand than

518
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: you do taking him down because he's so big and strong.

519
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: And you look at these defensive ends that the Cowboys have,

520
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: you look at what David Irving has been able to do.

521
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: That's one thing that they seemed pretty proficient is getting

522
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,400
Speaker 1: to the quarterback. They've gotten some strip sacks this year,

523
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 1: so I think that may be a good opportunity for them,

524
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 1: is if you can get there, you can get the

525
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 1: ball out of his hand. That's better than than taking

526
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 1: him down last year and right in front of us

527
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,919
Speaker 1: on a sack. Unbelievable that it didn't and he couldn't

528
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,360
Speaker 1: he couldn't get the ball out. And of course those

529
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: defensive linemen are stronger than Scandred, much bigger, much stronger. Yeah,

530
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 1: I'll say, I'll say, see, I don't like Xavier Woods

531
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 1: is out there. He's a future Hall of Famer. Uh,

532
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: defensive line. Yeah, you get some pressure. He's getting ready

533
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: for the hall. See all right, See okay, Darren my

534
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: fat and plays and comes out of that game with

535
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: everyone positively talking about him. No, no, everyone, no, no,

536
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: he'll play that nick no one rush. You can have

537
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty yards and Rod Smith's not gonna

538
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:41,719
Speaker 1: positively be talking. You know what. Um, I don't think

539
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:48,120
Speaker 1: he's gonna get a lot of playing time. He's gonna play. Yeah,

540
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 1: he'll make a difference. Well, I'm gonna make a difference.

541
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 1: I don't know he's gonna play better than he's I

542
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: mean he'll do something. He'll do some positive things. Two

543
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 1: carries for two yards instead of one for Yeah, that's

544
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 1: im provement. No, no, it'll be fine. He'll be the

545
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: best running back of the three. Oh wow, that's of

546
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 1: this group. Still, this ragtag group of guys. They got

547
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 1: out there, still gave him one game. They don't like him. Okay,

548
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: but what you're saying, what you're saying, assuming that this

549
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: week they've decided and they do like him and they're

550
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 1: gonna give him more opportunity. He's just I don't see

551
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 1: that he'll be he'll be the best of the three, Okay,

552
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 1: all right, bold was not really it'd be bold if

553
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 1: he was playing with me with Zeke out there, But like,

554
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: who is the best? I'm not even arguing with you, Like, Okay,

555
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 1: if you want to argue that Darren McFadden is the

556
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,920
Speaker 1: most talented of the three, that's fine. I'm just thinking

557
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 1: about like the coaching staff has to put him out

558
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 1: there right right. Last week they decided to put him

559
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 1: out there for one play. It was a negative yard,

560
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: and they're like, okay, dar back, back back, Okay. So

561
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: I just don't see, if he's out there, how's a

562
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 1: good run? They put him back in? They should? I mean,

563
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 1: of course that you say that once Alfred Morris finally

564
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 1: got it going last week, I didn't get so I don't.

565
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're trying to do. I don't

566
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 1: know what they view as good running bags and good

567
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 1: stats and all that. I don't know. I think he'll

568
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 1: play fairly well. I mean they're having to figure it out,

569
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: that's I mean, if you want to be fair about it,

570
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,440
Speaker 1: they're having to figure this out there. They are used

571
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,959
Speaker 1: to Zeke for the last year and a half. They

572
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: throw one guy out there I'm buying it, and like

573
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: you don't think you have to figure out kind of

574
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 1: what each guy's role is gonna be and not a

575
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 1: simple their head for ten months figure that out in practice.

576
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: You don't know how the guy's gonna run to you

577
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: get him into live action. You know, they don't hit,

578
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: they don't tackle, like, you don't know what it's going

579
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 1: to be like until you get him into live action

580
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 1: and start seeing how's this guy gonna perform in these situations.

581
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people in this building believe

582
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: Rod Smith was going to have a breakout game last week.

583
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: Guess what he did not. So I'm just saying, like

584
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: they have to figure this thing out. Maybe we should

585
00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 1: be talking less about their rushing attack and talking more

586
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 1: about rushing a dak. You know what I mean? You

587
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. Yeah, I see what you did.

588
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna lead the team again because he's

589
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 1: gonna leave all the stretch. But crappy Joe, Okay, thank

590
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 1: you say if all the crappy jokes the kids got

591
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: these drops for over here, you don't understand the joy

592
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: I felt in my heart when I realized that joke

593
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 1: was on the table so that's fine. How long did

594
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 1: you sit there with that thirty forty seconds and you

595
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 1: were just like it was like, stop talking, Derek stopped talking. Derek,

596
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: let me say my joke. Yeah, it's fine. I'm happy.

597
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 1: That's just pitiful. I'm happy about it. It's pitiful. I'm

598
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: happy about it. All right. Next question. All right, this

599
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: one kind of ties up to while we were talking about,

600
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: Well it does tied up. Eagles run defense give up

601
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: most rushing yards of all season against the Cowboys. No,

602
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: I don't know that number as a team. I know

603
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 1: they gave up to an individual rusher, Kareem Hunt, I

604
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: think has the highest number at eighty one. I want

605
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 1: to say it is. So they're probably over one hundred

606
00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: a little bit. They will probably right in one hundred.

607
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: I bet they'll get They'll flirt with a hundred as

608
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: a team if I had to guess, yeah, oh god,

609
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: that's almost double what they're allowing. Though they'll be okay,

610
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: eighty eighty as a team. I don't know, so you

611
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: don't think they get over They'll get a hundred. As

612
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: a team. They'll get a hundred, that's my prediction. Dak

613
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: will have to get fifty then I'm yeah, I'm gonna

614
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: Switcher is gonna get twenty three on a reverse, reverse

615
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: and fumble and then Switzer not done bar fair point.

616
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 1: That was mean, fair point. He's ld, he's hurt for

617
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: the Rams. You miss him. Yeah, he's a nice guy. No,

618
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: you miss him on the field. Not really, all right?

619
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: I miss him in the locker rooms. That's fine, I'm saying, like,

620
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: nice guy. Yeah, he's right, But I don't they miss

621
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 1: walking around. Man, I'm tired today, lands come on, quit

622
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: telling me you're tired. Stop it. Okay. If the Coboys

623
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 1: lose this game, is their season over? No. I wrote

624
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: extensively about that last night. I really I don't. I

625
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 1: don't see this as like a must have game. And

626
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: I know it's in the division, and I know it's

627
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: in it affects your conference record, which is important for

628
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 1: wildcard purposes. But five and five with six games to play,

629
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 1: three really manageable opponents coming up after this, Yeah, I

630
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 1: mean and and two of those are also division games.

631
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: Let's okay, this is what I wrote last night. You

632
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 1: don't have to win this game, but if you don't

633
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 1: win it, you absolutely have to win all three of

634
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: the next ones. You have to beat the Chargers, the Redskins,

635
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: and the Giants to make up for losing to this

636
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: and if you do that, if you do that, you're

637
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 1: eight and five with a three and one record, No

638
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: four and one record in the division, because that would

639
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: just leave the the Eagles. At the end, you'd be

640
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 1: four and one in the division, eight and five overall.

641
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that it gets you into the playoffs,

642
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: but it puts you in a pretty good heading in

643
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: in the final. But that at that point, though you're

644
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: four and one record in the division, that doesn't really

645
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 1: help you. No not. I mean you're not gonna win

646
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 1: the that's this game is only must win if winning

647
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: in the division is still a goal of yours, which

648
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: for me, I put that to bed. That's not happening. Well,

649
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 1: I'll say this, if they lose this week, I don't

650
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:18,959
Speaker 1: I don't just say they gotta win the next year.

651
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: I think they have to win out in order to

652
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: get in the playoffs, because I think at that point

653
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: you lose this game, I think tie breaks are pretty

654
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: much done for you. I don't think you're gonna win

655
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 1: very many tie breaks with the teams that are right

656
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: there in the mix or above you, and so you're

657
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 1: gonna have to I think ten and six is going

658
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: to be that break point of here's where your tie

659
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 1: breaks are going to come into play. So I think

660
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 1: you have to be eleven and five if you're not

661
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 1: gonna be in the tie breaks scenario. And that I

662
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,959
Speaker 1: think means again, if you lose this week, that means

663
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 1: you gotta win out and work you're ten and six

664
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: with Seattle. I mean your point is well made, and

665
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 1: I think ten and six will get you in. It

666
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 1: might not. I think if you lose this week, I

667
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: don't think ten and six gets you in. But see,

668
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,239
Speaker 1: here's here's the thing. And like I said, like your

669
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: logic is there. I've run the simulations on the playoff predictors.

670
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: There's a very good chance you could finish ten and

671
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 1: six and not make the playoffs. But there's still almost

672
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 1: half the season left. Like you're looking at it thinking, well,

673
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 1: Caroline is not gonna lose again, the Saints aren't gonna

674
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: lose again. Nobody else is gonna get hurt. Like ten

675
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 1: and six might not get you into the playoffs if

676
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 1: nothing else happens to twist the season and the odds

677
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: that that happens with seven weeks left, they're slim. But

678
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: you're also assuming then if you're saying that, then nothing

679
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 1: else happens to the Cowboys too, all right, what I'm saying,

680
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is everything being that every team's gonna

681
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 1: have turbulence or whatever, and if everybody stays on a

682
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 1: similar trajectory or has a little dip up or down,

683
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are still in a position where those teams

684
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: are like, right now there are what there are six, seven, eight, nine,

685
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: There are nine teams above the Cowboys right now. You

686
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: lose this game, you're not getting tie breaks at that point,

687
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: like you're not You're not getting tie breaks unless you

688
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 1: win out. This game doesn't matter to tie breaks. It

689
00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 1: does when you start looking at the conference record, Yes,

690
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 1: four and four, yet and head to head, you've already

691
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: lost the two of the teams that are in that mix.

692
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 1: So all but again again going back to that point,

693
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: and obviously you can't predict what's gonna happen. What's gonna happen.

694
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying, But like Atlanta still has

695
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,759
Speaker 1: two games against the Saints, absolutely still have a game

696
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,319
Speaker 1: against the Panthers, absolute, Panthers and Saints still have to play.

697
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: The Seahawks haven't played the Rams again, like there's so

698
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 1: much stuff that is yet to happen. My only point

699
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: is if you're sitting at five and five, you can't

700
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: rule this. You like the season, that's all right. All

701
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: I'm saying is you're saying that, yes, they will be

702
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: they will they will lose some games. These teams are

703
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: not gonna win out absolutely, But that's also my point

704
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: is not only not gonna win out, like a couple

705
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: of them are probably about to have losing the Stan.

706
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 1: Let me finish the point. I think what you're missing though,

707
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 1: is that that's why I'm saying the Cowboys have to

708
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,439
Speaker 1: win out, because if the Cowboys keep winning and losing

709
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 1: some games, just like all those other teams are gonna

710
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: win and lose some games, they're gonna be right there

711
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 1: where they are right now, with nine teams ahead of them.

712
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:54,840
Speaker 1: That's my point. It's too early in the season to

713
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:56,760
Speaker 1: say ten and six won't get you and in the playoffs.

714
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 1: That's really the only point I'm trying to make, and

715
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: it's a very real possibility that that happens, But you

716
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,399
Speaker 1: just can't assume that right now. You just can't. There's

717
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 1: too many things again you have to happen. There is

718
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: no there's no assumption happening. I'm saying just in my opinion,

719
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,279
Speaker 1: if you don't win out, I think it's gonna be

720
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 1: extremely difficult to get in based upon the guys they

721
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 1: are ahead of you, the teams ahead of you right now,

722
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,359
Speaker 1: and knowing that they're gonna win some, you're gonna lose something,

723
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 1: win and lose some. Two. I will say, like, if

724
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,839
Speaker 1: you don't beat the Eagles, you're out of breathing room,

725
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: like you're at like, like I said, you have to

726
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 1: win the next three. You probably have to beat the

727
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 1: Raiders like you really your margin for error goes away

728
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: if you don't win this game. Can I ask a

729
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,239
Speaker 1: question here? Yeah, it's two thousand and two. This is

730
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: when they realigned it to eight four team divisions. Thirty

731
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 1: five teams have finished ten and six. How many of

732
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,879
Speaker 1: those do you think have made the playoffs? I would

733
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: guess thirty three, I would guess twenty three. I know

734
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,919
Speaker 1: the same. The Bucks missed the playoffs at ten and six,

735
00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: thirty thirty out of thirty five thirty five. And this

736
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,399
Speaker 1: has since win this is two thousand and two when

737
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 1: the current format, Yeah, like the way they do it

738
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 1: right now. I mean that's I didn't really know what

739
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 1: to expect there. I thought I didn't think it'd be

740
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:16,239
Speaker 1: as high as that would be, like twenty twenties five

741
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 1: or twenty six out of it. I know the Bucks,

742
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 1: the Bucks missed at ten and six a while back. Um,

743
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 1: Patriots famously missed, which is unbelievable. Castles the quarterback. That's

744
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 1: a bat. That's that's the worst kind of season where

745
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: you go eleven to five and you're sitting at home.

746
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 1: The Falcons win eleven sweek five last year and they

747
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:38,600
Speaker 1: were the two seed and made the Super Bowl. That's crazy, Um,

748
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 1: and especially when after they did that with their backup quarterback,

749
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: it's it's un Yeah, it's unusual for ten and six

750
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 1: to not be good enough to get you into the play,

751
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 1: which is what Like, I can't sit here and say

752
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen, But I'm just not going to be

753
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 1: surprised if we see some balancing out like I just will,

754
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 1: we'll see. I agree with Dave on that one. And

755
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: you know, if you do go ten and six, I

756
00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: say you lose the Eagles and you go ten and six.

757
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: You need Oakland or San Diego to be that loss

758
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah, you can't lose. You definitely can't lose

759
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 1: any more NFC games. Yeah, I mean, I just I think, no,

760
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,360
Speaker 1: this is this is to me, this is as dire

761
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: a game as you've had this season so far. So yeah,

762
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,800
Speaker 1: that's how it goes as you move along. The Chargers

763
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: game is that game for me? Like this, it's an

764
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 1: AFC game. You can but you do need to get

765
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 1: the wins though you don't have any time. Yes, I

766
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: get that, but if you have to choose between Eagles

767
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 1: and and Chargers, Eagles is way more important than Charges. Yeah,

768
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: but you're not going to win the Eagles game, so

769
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 1: so you're already basically that's the point here is that

770
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 1: you've already concede it. You're not winning this weekend. I mean,

771
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 1: anything is possible, but how can how could I pick

772
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 1: the Cowboys to win this game based on what we

773
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:46,439
Speaker 1: know right now? Other than hope really like yap, present

774
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 1: me with the logical argument why it makes sense and

775
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:53,040
Speaker 1: I'll go along with you anyway? Sorry? All right? So

776
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: what was it C or not? No? This is not

777
00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 1: a must win game. Yes see all right, Cowboys, oh

778
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 1: line does not give up more than two sacks if

779
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:09,359
Speaker 1: Tyrant is not playing, if he's not playing, if he's

780
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 1: not playing, they they don't or they do give up

781
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: two or more. Don't give up more than two. No,

782
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 1: you know, I will say this like it's so like

783
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 1: you want to be like, oh no, they're gonna get killed,

784
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 1: but like it's NFL football, like they all game they

785
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,919
Speaker 1: have game planned away around this and then they'll play better.

786
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 1: Like I would be stunned if you see another eight

787
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 1: sack day. But yes, I agree with that. I think

788
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,879
Speaker 1: I think two, but I'm thinking three four yea two yeah,

789
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: so I don't think it's under two. If Tyrant plays,

790
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 1: it's big donut. Though you think so zero, I still

791
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 1: think yes. I mean if Cox or somebody like you're

792
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,959
Speaker 1: getting through and they'll get probably they'll get a couple.

793
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 1: I mean I think no matter if you're if your

794
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,359
Speaker 1: offensive line was at full strength without Zeke, I think

795
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,239
Speaker 1: you still give up a couple of sacks. Probably. Yeah,

796
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:05,439
Speaker 1: this is without not any fun. All right, Cowboys. Wide

797
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:10,359
Speaker 1: receivers do not drop any major what do you call

798
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 1: like important player? All every single one of them is

799
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,959
Speaker 1: critical at this point, isn't it. It really is a mate,

800
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 1: like not necessarily, I mean yes, say all right, but

801
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 1: first down slant in the first quarter would would have

802
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 1: been seven yards. That's not a hip. You're already down

803
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:33,799
Speaker 1: by fourteen, Okay, But I'm just saying. I'm just saying

804
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:37,800
Speaker 1: early in the game though. Now there's a difference between

805
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 1: like game changing since I got I started covering football, though,

806
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 1: like I've really you know, Garrett talks about this all

807
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 1: the time, Nick does it too, Like it's so true though,

808
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: like you're just watching as a fan, and I'm not

809
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 1: saying fans aren't capable of seeing this, but you're just watching,

810
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 1: drinking a beer, talking to your friends. There's like sixty

811
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,720
Speaker 1: or seventy plays, you know, like they don't all seem

812
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: that important, you know. But then like when you break

813
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 1: it down, when you're watching the game and looking at

814
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,399
Speaker 1: the box score, you're like, you get nine possessions a game,

815
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 1: some of them only lasts like three or four plays,

816
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 1: Like a drop in the first it's huge, Like maybe

817
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,840
Speaker 1: it's at the thirty five. Maybe that's the difference between

818
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 1: pinning them on their one at the punt or giving

819
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:17,719
Speaker 1: them the ball on the thirty five, or maybe it's

820
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 1: a difference between points and not like any drop in

821
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: a pro football game is a big deal. It is

822
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 1: the reason why I love that article that Nick does,

823
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 1: the five plays that you missed, because there are plays

824
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: like that that nobody thinks about that matters so much

825
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 1: in the game. But they're because they're not at the

826
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 1: big moments. People forget. And I get a lot of

827
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 1: help from fans, like on Twitter, every time somebody drops

828
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 1: a pass or turnover or penalty or something. Five plays.

829
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,320
Speaker 1: Put that in. Put that in your article. And what

830
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: I think fans forget sometime is, yeah, a key drop

831
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 1: over the middle that would have been a touchdown, Like,

832
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: I'll put that in, and then they don't realize that

833
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,520
Speaker 1: they just marched, you know, ten plays in a row, finished,

834
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 1: the drive still scored. Nothing really changed. It's it doesn't

835
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 1: It didn't affect it like you think it did. So

836
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 1: but sometimes okay, So the answer the question, will there

837
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,319
Speaker 1: be a drop? No drops, No drops, game changing, game

838
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 1: changing drop, no drops this week, because the passion game

839
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 1: is gonna have to have it. Yeah, I don't see

840
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 1: any game gonna be clicking you see des going off

841
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: this week. Did y'all watch Antonio Brown last night? Yeah,

842
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,319
Speaker 1: oh my god, ten for one forty four. You see

843
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 1: his catch, he had like a Dez catch. Yeah, yeah,

844
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: I had him in both fantasy leagues. That you're such

845
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: a loser, I do. You can't just appreciate beautiful thing

846
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 1: football for the sake. Hey, you can do both. You

847
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 1: can do both. If you were playing against Antonio Brown

848
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 1: like that, you could be like Brown. No, I would

849
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 1: have thrown something at my crap and as soon as

850
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 1: somebody brought it up, I would have probably punched him.

851
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:51,880
Speaker 1: So unless you had him on your fantasy yeah is yes,

852
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: I do have him off fantasy and that you have him, yes, yeah,

853
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 1: on both teams. Yeah, so it's good night. What are

854
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,320
Speaker 1: you gonna say if Dez is gonna would be a

855
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,960
Speaker 1: nice night for him to remind everybody that he's pretty good.

856
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,239
Speaker 1: That's my point, Like, we haven't seen when's the last

857
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: time we saw that kind of game from Daz where

858
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 1: it's just like this year man was just killing like

859
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 1: everyone play after play, you know, Green Bay be nice? Yeah,

860
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 1: use it, yep. Yeah, he does play well against the

861
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 1: Eagles traditionally. Denny and that one of the teams he

862
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:24,440
Speaker 1: usually has me Bradley. Now, Bradley Fletcher, where are you,

863
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:27,919
Speaker 1: Bradley Fletcher? Come back? That makes sense. It all makes

864
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,840
Speaker 1: sense now, yeah, I'd forgotten about him. Yeah, okay, all right,

865
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:33,879
Speaker 1: let's go and take our final break. When we come back,

00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 1: let's get some questions the numbers two, one, four, eight

943
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 1: seven two twenty one h two. We got a call

944
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:48,320
Speaker 1: from Joe and Maryland. Joe, what up? How's it going? Guys?

945
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:52,320
Speaker 1: Firstance wanted to say thank you for educating us on

946
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:56,279
Speaker 1: sometime annoying fans, especially I'm one of them on Twitter. Um.

947
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 1: I My question was, um, says Brian, So if he

948
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 1: continues down this road, what do you guys think we

949
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 1: could possibly get for him? I say the Cowboys would

950
00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: have trade him. Do you think we could get as

951
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:12,360
Speaker 1: low as a third or fourth or in? My second

952
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:14,840
Speaker 1: thing I wanted to say is it's more of a

953
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 1: statement for everyone calling in asking about Dak Prescott. I

954
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 1: think they should be thankful that we landed a special kid.

955
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 1: And as long as we have number four suiting up

956
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: on Sunday, I will never count this team out. I

957
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:31,360
Speaker 1: don't care if we're playing in New England Patriots sixteen games.

958
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:33,919
Speaker 1: Thank you, guys. I'll listen, all right. Thanks he Paul,

959
00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 1: He's absolutely right about that. With a quarterback, if you

960
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:38,799
Speaker 1: got a quarterback in this league, you got a shot

961
00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 1: every single week. If you don't, then you don't be

962
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 1: happy that you have a quarterback. Yeah, and I think

963
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 1: you know, we talked about it after the game, and

964
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 1: I know Jason Garrett actually agreed with it. But but

965
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,719
Speaker 1: it's games like you know, built parcelves. Just say it

966
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:57,560
Speaker 1: all the time, Games like that Bronco one back in

967
00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:00,480
Speaker 1: Week two where you know, even though the score was

968
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: it was ugly, it was an ugly game from start

969
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:04,719
Speaker 1: to finish, though, but he showed his team, he showed

970
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,319
Speaker 1: his coaches, he showed his fan base, you know, kind

971
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 1: of he's not giving up. I mean, he's not gonna stop. Um.

972
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:13,399
Speaker 1: You know, the question the other day to Garrett, why

973
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:15,360
Speaker 1: why was he still in the game, you know, and

974
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:19,239
Speaker 1: he said, it's a sixty minute game. I mean, Dak

975
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,320
Speaker 1: Prescott is still gonna play. I mean, in fact, I

976
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,800
Speaker 1: remember looking at him wondering if he was going in.

977
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 1: It was like forty seconds to go in the game,

978
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:28,719
Speaker 1: and he's like clapping his hands like I got two

979
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,920
Speaker 1: more throws, and like Nick was like, why is he

980
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 1: clapping right now? Not not in a bad way, but no,

981
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 1: Nick I even said it that way. I was actually surprised.

982
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,799
Speaker 1: But that's that's what he is. He's gonna keep going.

983
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,440
Speaker 1: And and he said it in his press conference. You know,

984
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 1: he doesn't necessarily pay attention to what the score is

985
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:50,399
Speaker 1: at at the moment. Like every play it said, brand

986
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,240
Speaker 1: new play, and you just trying to keep your focus

987
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:57,400
Speaker 1: and scoring and keep going competing. Yeah. So yeah, he

988
00:48:57,560 --> 00:49:00,080
Speaker 1: put the team on his back. He actually I he

989
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 1: said that earlier this week. First of all, it's one

990
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,800
Speaker 1: of the best videos ever. Thank you Kendeo. It's the

991
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 1: Greg Jennings Madden video. If you've seen it. If you

992
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 1: haven't seen it, I'll show that was ray Lewis talking though, right, No,

993
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 1: that was a dude playing Madden on his TV. I'll

994
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,040
Speaker 1: show it to you. I can't believe you've never seen it.

995
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 1: It's hilarious. He had like I love Dak. He's great,

996
00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:23,919
Speaker 1: he's a competitor, he's playing awesome. He has not, I think,

997
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:26,799
Speaker 1: really had a game where he truly put the team

998
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:28,960
Speaker 1: on his back. And I mean most of that's because

999
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:30,960
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott has been there beside him for the vast

1000
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,040
Speaker 1: majority of his career. I mean, even you can think

1001
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 1: back to the playoff game, you can think back to

1002
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 1: the Steelers game. In all those instances, he still had

1003
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,120
Speaker 1: Zeke carrying a huge proportion of that workload. And I

1004
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 1: think if they're gonna beat the Eagles, it's going to

1005
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:46,800
Speaker 1: be because he puts the team on his back and

1006
00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 1: literally runs for fifty yards in a touchdown and throws

1007
00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,319
Speaker 1: for another three hundred or something like He's I think

1008
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:54,000
Speaker 1: this will have to be the best game of his

1009
00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 1: career if they're gonna You think he's capable at this

1010
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 1: point where he is in this development, Yes, I mean

1011
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 1: I said yesterday, he's He's not fully developed as a

1012
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 1: polished passer who can manipulate defenses. But between his athleticism,

1013
00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,879
Speaker 1: his strength, and his accuracy, his good decision making all

1014
00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 1: that stuff, he's capable of doing that, even if he's

1015
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:14,360
Speaker 1: not a finished product as a purer passer. Do you

1016
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 1: think they need to change up the offensive bit? And

1017
00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:18,320
Speaker 1: what I mean by that do a lot more of

1018
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,359
Speaker 1: the zone reads and stuff like that that can really

1019
00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:24,839
Speaker 1: utilize those skills that you just talked about. Is that change?

1020
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:27,680
Speaker 1: Is that changing up the offense? I mean that stuff's there, No, No, No.

1021
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:30,280
Speaker 1: What I mean by that is changing up the amount

1022
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:32,879
Speaker 1: of times that they will use that. Like in a game,

1023
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:35,600
Speaker 1: they may use zone read once or twice, like this

1024
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: is not a regular part of their offense. Do you

1025
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 1: think that maybe in a game like this that is

1026
00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:43,239
Speaker 1: a game that's important. I know you say it's not

1027
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,680
Speaker 1: at all, but it's a very important. But this one

1028
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 1: is a very important game. But in a game like that,

1029
00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 1: do you think that, especially when you've got so many

1030
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,080
Speaker 1: different parts, do you think that maybe it's time to

1031
00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: kind of change a proportion with which you do certain

1032
00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:58,320
Speaker 1: things to maybe utilize him a little more in the

1033
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,319
Speaker 1: things that he does really well that are unique gills

1034
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:03,360
Speaker 1: for him. If anything needs well, whatever you need to

1035
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,759
Speaker 1: change to fix your protection, that's first. And so if

1036
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:09,440
Speaker 1: Tyron's could help. If Tyron's not playing, then I imagine

1037
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,360
Speaker 1: the offense will look different to help account for that,

1038
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:14,040
Speaker 1: Like we talked about yesterday, more tight ends. I would

1039
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 1: run some more play action a lot like what we

1040
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,600
Speaker 1: talked about the Eagles do with wins, like get him

1041
00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 1: on the move at the outset of the play, especially

1042
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:24,759
Speaker 1: if Tyron's not playing, take protection out of it and

1043
00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:27,120
Speaker 1: just have him moving away from the faults and the

1044
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:30,319
Speaker 1: protection to begin with. You know, some of that stuff

1045
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:32,239
Speaker 1: we've it's it's not new stuff. It's not like it's

1046
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 1: not there. But the waggles and the boots and the

1047
00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 1: tight end actions and the you know, get a guy

1048
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:40,840
Speaker 1: moving underneath to kind of like an easy outlet and

1049
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:44,000
Speaker 1: things like that. So none of it's new stuff that

1050
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 1: we haven't seen before, but it's stuff that maybe you

1051
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:48,160
Speaker 1: haven't seen as much of this season that I think

1052
00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:51,279
Speaker 1: they could go back to to help him out. For sure, Um,

1053
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:55,440
Speaker 1: did you have anything? Well not. I mean one thing

1054
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:57,759
Speaker 1: I think they can do to help him and is

1055
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:00,800
Speaker 1: get the book. You don't have to wait until you

1056
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:02,880
Speaker 1: know it's right before the half or you're down by

1057
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 1: three touchdowns to get Jason Witten involved. I mean, I

1058
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,359
Speaker 1: think that's the easiest throw there is. I think it's

1059
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:12,200
Speaker 1: one that's always there and it moves the chains. I mean,

1060
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:14,920
Speaker 1: it may not be the most exciting play in football,

1061
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 1: but it definitely moves, you know, anything that flips it

1062
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,879
Speaker 1: over to one for that chain guy over there. That's

1063
00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,200
Speaker 1: good play. Let's let's keep it rolling. And I think

1064
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:25,880
Speaker 1: that they need to do that more, and that'll be

1065
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,600
Speaker 1: part of my crazy prediction this week. I just I

1066
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 1: feel guilty because we didn't actually answer the caller's real question.

1067
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:35,360
Speaker 1: Des is like he hasn't been having a great season,

1068
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:37,880
Speaker 1: he's getting older. I get all that. The odds of

1069
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 1: dealing a contract like that are slim and not like,

1070
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:42,920
Speaker 1: I don't think I think you could get a third

1071
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,520
Speaker 1: round pick for Dez if it didn't and if it

1072
00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:48,360
Speaker 1: didn't entail taking on that contract. But it does. But

1073
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 1: even even with all that's being said that people are

1074
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,120
Speaker 1: saying about Dez, I still I am not ready to

1075
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 1: see this team without No. I had a long conversation

1076
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:59,800
Speaker 1: about this because I listed somebody asked me for my

1077
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,239
Speaker 1: biggest draft needs and I said, receiver was somewhere around

1078
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 1: number five and they said, you know, I think it's

1079
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:06,879
Speaker 1: more like number one. And I was like, I get

1080
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,440
Speaker 1: what you're saying. The receivers have been underwhelming, but if

1081
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:11,560
Speaker 1: everything else is working the way it's supposed to, if

1082
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:14,800
Speaker 1: your defense is better, you can win with these receivers

1083
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:16,840
Speaker 1: you have, Like this was the same crew that with

1084
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:21,320
Speaker 1: thirteen and three. No, you're probably missing like a dynamic playmaker.

1085
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:23,279
Speaker 1: Dez doesn't look like the guy he used to be.

1086
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,359
Speaker 1: But if Ezekiel Elliott's here and the defense is good

1087
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:28,239
Speaker 1: and all that stuff's working the way it's supposed to,

1088
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:30,359
Speaker 1: I don't think you need that. And I don't think

1089
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,719
Speaker 1: they want to play that way in the first place.

1090
00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,320
Speaker 1: So I do view wide receivers something they need to

1091
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:40,239
Speaker 1: think about. I don't think it's something that immediately needs

1092
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:42,800
Speaker 1: to happen, like people are suggesting trading or cutting or

1093
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,400
Speaker 1: restructuring Dez. I'd be legitimately surprised to see any of

1094
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:48,759
Speaker 1: that type of stuff happen in twenty eighteen, right. I

1095
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:52,240
Speaker 1: think those are conversations you start having in twenty nineteen

1096
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:55,760
Speaker 1: and beyond him and Terrence both. I think it's easier

1097
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 1: to get away from those deals after the twenty eighteen

1098
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:00,440
Speaker 1: season if you still still feel like you want to.

1099
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't. I don't think you need to do

1100
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 1: anything drastic with any of those guys, and I don't

1101
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,279
Speaker 1: think they will. And also you have to remember too,

1102
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,719
Speaker 1: whenever whoever writes and though somebody will put it out

1103
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:13,560
Speaker 1: there and they'll put the figure of how much the

1104
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:17,040
Speaker 1: Cowboys will save if they cut him, I think it's

1105
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:20,399
Speaker 1: around eight million maybe, and then you could be twelve

1106
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 1: million if you did it after June first. Just remember

1107
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:26,080
Speaker 1: this that you have to factor in what do they do,

1108
00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:30,359
Speaker 1: like they gotta get somebody, Yeah, and so it won't

1109
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,360
Speaker 1: be they won't save that much because they're gonna have

1110
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:34,680
Speaker 1: to go in free agency and get some guy that's

1111
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:37,479
Speaker 1: probably underperforming. Then you have to go and you spend

1112
00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:39,320
Speaker 1: a high draft picked on it as well. So and

1113
00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:42,680
Speaker 1: that's you have to he has to be replaced. If

1114
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:44,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna take him off the books, fine, but you

1115
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 1: better put somebody one or two guys on there. And well,

1116
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:51,160
Speaker 1: the conversation I had, and this was somebody who knows

1117
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:53,360
Speaker 1: what he's talking about, that I was having this conversation

1118
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:54,680
Speaker 1: with it. He was like, I was like, well, what

1119
00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:56,160
Speaker 1: do you do if you get rid of him, We'll

1120
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,120
Speaker 1: go draft his replacement. I'm like, if you're like, wouldn't

1121
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,279
Speaker 1: you rather spend the you know, a first or second

1122
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 1: round draft pick on the position that really needs it,

1123
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:06,680
Speaker 1: like safety or linebacker or wherever you want to spend it,

1124
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 1: you're creating a problem for yourself that you don't have

1125
00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:13,120
Speaker 1: to answer right now by taking Daz off this team. Like, sure, okay,

1126
00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 1: he has not been as good as what we remember

1127
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:19,200
Speaker 1: when he signed that extension, but he's still a perfectly good,

1128
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:23,680
Speaker 1: functioning top option at wide receiver. And you're creating a

1129
00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 1: problem that you don't have by trying to take him

1130
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:27,319
Speaker 1: off the team, and like those who say you want

1131
00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:29,960
Speaker 1: to just go out and just draft that receiver, the problem.

1132
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,640
Speaker 1: The likelihood of a receiver coming in as a rookie

1133
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,640
Speaker 1: and being placed in the number one position and being

1134
00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:38,840
Speaker 1: successful in the first year of first two years is

1135
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,800
Speaker 1: probably relatively well. And then that's another year of you

1136
00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:44,400
Speaker 1: not addressing your exactly problems, which that fans have been

1137
00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:46,960
Speaker 1: complaining about forever. When you're not gonna get any relief,

1138
00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: where's our problem? On top of the fact you're not

1139
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:53,320
Speaker 1: addressing the other needs, would have a chance if he

1140
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 1: went somewhere else, he'd have a chance to have a

1141
00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,319
Speaker 1: Randy Moss like effect for another team, because what can

1142
00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 1: happen is is that, okay, he's not performing like a

1143
00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,439
Speaker 1: number one guy, that he's getting paid. So then let's

1144
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,480
Speaker 1: say he gets a new contract, goes to another team,

1145
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:11,280
Speaker 1: gets paid like a number two. He won't be performing

1146
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,359
Speaker 1: like a number two. Though he'll be performing. You put

1147
00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:15,920
Speaker 1: pair him up with someone else it was a great quarterback,

1148
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:19,080
Speaker 1: he'll be performing, you know, unbelievably, and then you're like, dang,

1149
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,960
Speaker 1: why'd you let him go? So it's one of those

1150
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:24,839
Speaker 1: things he's not a bad player at all he's having.

1151
00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:28,080
Speaker 1: He probably has a bad contract for what he's doing.

1152
00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:31,239
Speaker 1: And wide receiver is a spot that troubles me in

1153
00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:35,600
Speaker 1: the long term. But twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen, that's

1154
00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:37,680
Speaker 1: not something that I think you need to spend drastic

1155
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:39,719
Speaker 1: not the way you play like. That's not That's not

1156
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 1: the way they want to play as having receivers that

1157
00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 1: are gonna every week be putting up huge numbers. It's

1158
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 1: just not what they do. All right, let's ahead and

1159
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:48,759
Speaker 1: get into our our final part here. Let's find out

1160
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,279
Speaker 1: what our predictions are for this game. We're gonna start

1161
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,279
Speaker 1: with you Amber, give me your prediction for the game.

1162
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:57,320
Speaker 1: I think that everything really points to the Eagles winning

1163
00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:00,440
Speaker 1: this game, but I will call it. Feeling pretty positive

1164
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:03,719
Speaker 1: and just in a good mood, so I'm gonna go. Um.

1165
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:07,440
Speaker 1: You know, you never know how well. The NFL is

1166
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:11,040
Speaker 1: very unpredictable, and when you think you are supposed to

1167
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 1: win a game, you don't. So that I think that

1168
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:17,840
Speaker 1: could happen this weekend. The Cowboys could win this game.

1169
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:21,760
Speaker 1: Twenty three twenty one. I read a quote this morning,

1170
00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 1: diamonds are created under pressure. I think Dak will be

1171
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:29,000
Speaker 1: a Diamond this weekend. He's gonna have a great game.

1172
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:32,320
Speaker 1: What a line. Uh, there we go. That's it. That's

1173
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:34,800
Speaker 1: all I have to say. Oh, it sounds like a

1174
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 1: good Hey. I agree with Amber in the sense that

1175
00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:41,320
Speaker 1: I think I think Dak is going to do his

1176
00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 1: best Superman impression on Sunday. He has to. I mean,

1177
00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:47,440
Speaker 1: the Eagle secondary isn't good. Their run defense is so

1178
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:49,920
Speaker 1: not only can he take advantage of the run defense

1179
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:53,160
Speaker 1: in the misdirection sense and the scrambling sense, but also

1180
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 1: just throwing. Like I think he's going to have his

1181
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:57,400
Speaker 1: first three hundred yard game of the season again more

1182
00:57:57,400 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 1: because he has to. But I just I don't I

1183
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:04,680
Speaker 1: don't think it's I don't think it's enough. I mean,

1184
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't know if Tyrant's gonna play. We

1185
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 1: know Sean Lee's probably not gonna play. I think the

1186
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 1: world of Xavier Woods. But that you know, you got

1187
00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 1: a rookie in your secondary as well, Um, you're missing

1188
00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:18,880
Speaker 1: your Pro Bowl kicker. And this is this is probably

1189
00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:20,720
Speaker 1: the most complete team in the league, or has been

1190
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:23,280
Speaker 1: at least to this point in the year. Um, I

1191
00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:25,120
Speaker 1: think they're gonna have a hard time running the ball.

1192
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 1: Which is not a recipe for success that we've seen.

1193
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna have a hard time stopping the

1194
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:33,960
Speaker 1: run without Lee, which again is a recipe for disaster. Um,

1195
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 1: so it'll be close, like it's a division game. The

1196
00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 1: Cowboys are a good team, but I think they're just

1197
00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:44,280
Speaker 1: fighting against too much stuff right now. I'm thinking twenty eight,

1198
00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:48,680
Speaker 1: twenty four Eagles, something like that, thirty one thirty Eagles.

1199
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:52,600
Speaker 1: Whitten has ten catches? Damn how many? But how many

1200
00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 1: catches does he have by the time you get to

1201
00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:56,600
Speaker 1: the final two drives of the game. I don't care.

1202
00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:00,320
Speaker 1: He's gonna have ten catches, all right. Um. I actually

1203
00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:02,080
Speaker 1: think this is one of those weeks. I agree with you,

1204
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:04,400
Speaker 1: and I think things happen in the NFL that you

1205
00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:08,960
Speaker 1: don't expect, and I think that's this is the right recipe. However,

1206
00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:11,320
Speaker 1: I just I have a hard time at this point

1207
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,520
Speaker 1: seeing anything that I can look at and say, yeah,

1208
00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,280
Speaker 1: that's how they can win this game. And it's mainly

1209
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,360
Speaker 1: because the guys that they have missing. I think both

1210
00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 1: these teams are full strength. Even give phillyback the guys

1211
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:24,040
Speaker 1: that they've lost, both these teams are full strength. I

1212
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:26,120
Speaker 1: still think the Cowboys are the better team. I think

1213
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:28,680
Speaker 1: with the injuries the Cowboys have specifically right now and

1214
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:31,320
Speaker 1: the suspension that they have, I think it takes away

1215
00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 1: too much of the best of what they do. I

1216
00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:36,880
Speaker 1: think it's the best of what they do defensively, it's

1217
00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:38,840
Speaker 1: the best of what they do offensively, both on the

1218
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:41,400
Speaker 1: line and the guy in the backfield. So I just

1219
00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:44,120
Speaker 1: don't see a scenario of how they do it. Doesn't

1220
00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:45,920
Speaker 1: mean that doesn't mean I won't be surprised if they

1221
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:47,240
Speaker 1: figure out a way to do it and we're all

1222
00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:50,000
Speaker 1: back here Monday light. That's the NFL, right But right

1223
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:51,480
Speaker 1: now I just have a hard time finance. So I

1224
00:59:51,520 --> 00:59:53,520
Speaker 1: think the Eagles end up winning twenty six twenty four

1225
00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:55,600
Speaker 1: a close game. I think the Cowboys give it a

1226
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:57,640
Speaker 1: very valid effort, and I think they actually jump out

1227
00:59:57,680 --> 00:59:59,360
Speaker 1: to a lead because I think the Eagles been sitting

1228
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 1: around for two week so letting everybody pat him on

1229
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:02,480
Speaker 1: the back and see how great they are, and they

1230
01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:05,280
Speaker 1: watched the whole division lose last week and feeling pretty

1231
01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:07,680
Speaker 1: good about themselves, and typically that can take a team

1232
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:09,720
Speaker 1: out and make them be a little flat. But at

1233
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:11,000
Speaker 1: the end of the day, I still think they got

1234
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:13,040
Speaker 1: more firepower than the Cowboys have right now, if the

1235
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:16,040
Speaker 1: Cowboys find a way to win this game, I'll quote,

1236
01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 1: tweet and retweet all of the mean stuff y'all want

1237
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 1: to throw at me for picking her own Like that's fine, Like, well,

1238
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:23,760
Speaker 1: let's talk about about picking like you got it. You

1239
01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:26,440
Speaker 1: gotta pick based upon well and that's like I want

1240
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:27,720
Speaker 1: them to prove it to me that they can do

1241
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:30,120
Speaker 1: it without these guys. People take it personally. I feel

1242
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:32,000
Speaker 1: like when I pick against the Cowboys, like I'm just

1243
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:33,920
Speaker 1: doing my best to tell you what i think is

1244
