I'm sorry, seeks out, 0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:37.640 but yeah, they went by more than that my final 0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:38.120 score year. 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:40.360 Okay, so it's not a trap game. You don't think 0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:41.160 it's a trap. 0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:45.040 Not only only heck that the winning of the team 0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:47.840 who who we've all discussed it is coming in here 0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:52.240 to play physical bully t It's the word trap is 0:01:52.280 --> 0:01:55.240 what bothers you. And I shouldn't have used the word trap. 0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:58.800 I should have said, are you looking ahead? Could this 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:01.320 be a game that you look too far ahead to 0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:04.280 next week and not take serious who you have in 0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:06.560 front of you instead of the word trap? Does that 0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:16.000 sound overlooking? Considering this is the Arizona That's all I 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:19.400 was trying to say. You didne lost every game against 0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:21.240 the winning with a team with a winning record. This 0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:23.920 is this is your third opportunity to then play a 0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:26.480 team with a winning record. Ain't no way you overlooking 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:27.120 it because they know. 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:27.840 Just like we know. 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:31.240 He's Dak said that, yes, we know that this we 0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:35.160 we have not gotten there yet. Every measuristic game that 0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:37.880 we've played against a team with a winning record, we 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:41.400 have not woned. We got destroyed and won, and we 0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:43.639 didn't figure out a way to find out a way 0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:45.560 of how to close out in the at the end 0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:49.000 of the Philadelphia game. This is a team with a 0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:52.400 winning record who is beat the Detroit Lions, right a 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:54.240 team that we will play who we all say, hey man, 0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:57.560 they top three, top four in the NFC, Like they 0:02:57.600 --> 0:02:59.880 have wins under the under their belts that we don't have. 0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:04.000 So fine, it's hard even if it was, let's just 0:03:04.000 --> 0:03:05.280 say a trap game. 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:07.800 You know, I don't think this team going into this 0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:11.080 game overlooks anybody. And that's kudos to what McCarthy's been 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:13.360 able to do with this organization. I mean, like we 0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:15.360 always talk about dot matter after the loss bye Wi 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:18.359 any you know, his record stands for itself. So even 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:20.280 if this was a game against a lower opponent, I 0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:22.760 assume them, you know, the Cowboys to blow this team out. 0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:24.920 But Seattle come in here is going to present a challenge. 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:28.000 And I don't think anybody on this roster right now, player, coach, 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:31.760 anybody is overlooking what Pete Carroll's bringing into Dallas right now. 0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:34.480 I mean, you got an offense that's loaded on the outside. Granted, 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:36.680 their offensive line got a little bit of structure issues 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:38.280 going on there, and I think they can expose that. 0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:39.880 But this is an offense. 0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:42.400 That can contend with with their defense, and on vice versa, 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:43.800 their defense can play. 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:44.120 With our offense. 0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:46.280 If you look at it from skill position to skill position. 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:48.040 I think it's gonna be a big time game for 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:50.360 Tony Pollard and a running the game. But other than that, 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:52.400 this should be a challenge on both sides of the field. 0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:53.920 When it comes to the Seattle team. 0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:56.320 One to three, the last four games that they've played, 0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:58.400 they have not looked impressive at all. I mean, you 0:03:58.440 --> 0:04:02.240 could talk about how they as far as their skills 0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:05.600 positions on the outside. Maybe you know the names I mean, 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:08.880 and you know that they have they can go with 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:11.960 any roster DK Metcalf all the way down. These guys 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:14.880 are very talented defensively. They have some young gunners on 0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:16.960 the other side. But the record doesn't say it all right. 0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:19.640 They're playing very inconsistent and I have to give them 0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:20.000 the credit. 0:04:20.040 --> 0:04:21.039 It's the NFC West. 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:23.160 Most of these games that they have lost against the Rams, 0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:27.080 against San Francisco, Okay Baltimore thirty seven to three, just 0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:29.680 basically obliterated them. And then the one game that they 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:34.240 did win was against the Washington Commanders and it was 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:36.840 a closed game, but they did still have sweat, they 0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:39.279 had young, they still had some guys that were playing 0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:43.000 that could present challenges on the outside. What I'm saying 0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:46.200 to this Cowboys team is that this is a game. 0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:48.159 You come in, you want to take care of your business. 0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:50.680 You don't want to allow this offense, which we have 0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:53.960 come up against some really good wide receivers in this league. 0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:57.119 We don't know if they're running back is playing. 0:04:57.320 --> 0:05:00.440 I can walker walker Walker the third don't know if 0:05:00.440 --> 0:05:04.040 he's playing, but still questionable whatever. But still this is 0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:06.760 a team that you can't just sleepwalk through this. 0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:10.279 Uh. As you you stated about their defense. 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:14.000 In the internally in their defense, they present some problems 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:18.680 to our offensive line, who has not dealt well with 0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:21.320 guys that can present pressure up the middle. So I 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:22.920 think this is one of those games that I think 0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:24.560 you can test your medal against a. 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:26.520 Very good six and five team. 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:29.200 But we just can't walk into it thinking that hey, 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:30.920 this is we're gonna wrap this up so we can 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:31.840 get to next week. 0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:35.159 You're you're worried about a JG special, and I get 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:45.240 that you was always you see the Cowboys come out 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:47.200 here in a game like this and later down, what 0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:49.160 are we doing? Guys come out, you know, not not 0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:51.240 not be ready to go. I think McCarthy be ready 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:55.400 to go. Also, uh Dan Quinn former Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator, 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.480 got Brian Schotenheimer, former Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator. 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:01.119 These guys, you know, they want to perform well against 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:02.040 their old team. 0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:05.480 And I think the point about Dak Prescott understanding where 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:06.800 he's at and where this team is. 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:08.279 Look, you know you're. 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:12.880 Still trying to chase Philadelphia and in a way do 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:16.560 your business Thursday night. Hope you get a gift from 0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:18.840 the forty nine ers. Then you go ahead, get ten 0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:21.400 days off, get ready to go face him. But none 0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:22.840 of that will matter if you don't go out here 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:26.320 against the Seahawks and handle your business. Maybe the Arizona 0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:29.600 game continues to weigh at the front of their mind 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:33.040 and say, guys, we gotta handle our business. Can't come 0:06:33.080 --> 0:06:35.359 out here half stephan. I think Mike McCarthy as a 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:36.880 head coach has ben sensational at home. 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:39.440 Was it thirteen straight? Yeah? 0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:40.960 So heck. 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:42.359 I won't say that. 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:45.880 I'm not quote unquote worried, but because it is the 0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:48.200 National Football League, I don't think they're going to cover. 0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:49.520 I think it's gonna be a game. 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:54.440 But I think they win the game because they clearly 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:58.760 are playing their best offensive football right now. And I 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:01.960 just think at home, man, they they I remember the 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:04.440 last time I seen this team dominate a Holt like this. 0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:13.240 Yeah, now this is to this trap game talking about it. 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:16.600 Man, listen, man, this here he goes and it's not 0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:18.840 only do you get, not only do you have? You 0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:21.600 can build? Has the offense built upon some of the 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.080 things you've been waiting, especially for Brandon Cooks, the development 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:28.600 of Cooks, uh not development, but the playmaking of Cooks, 0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:32.640 the resurgence we found them again. But also the way 0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:35.080 that this defense has been playing. And I think that 0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:39.320 you know, defensively, Michael Michael Parsons as we've talked about 0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:41.960 him in the Defensive Player of the Year all of that. Man, 0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:45.640 we got another guy that's that's in into the equation 0:07:45.760 --> 0:07:49.080 with Bland. And I think this defense, the cohesion and upfront. 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:51.760 I mean, nobody's even talking about my man Hankins with 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:54.360 the two sacks that he had. I mean, nobody's talking 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:56.840 about through how tough old Sah Diggy Zoo is looking 0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:58.880 in the middle. You know, Look, these are things that 0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:01.440 we had questions about coming up into the trade deadline. 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:03.800 We were talking about, man, do we need another defensive tackle, 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:06.280 do we need a linebacker. We're still at that point, 0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:08.400 but I think coming into this game, you want to 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:11.280 see your defense take the next step because these next 0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:15.280 four games that you have, man, they're gonna have to 0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:18.880 step up big time. Yeah, listen, and I agree. I'm 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:22.560 glad you said that. You know, the our defensively, especially 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.920 our interior defensive line, has looked better. The competition that 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:29.080 they played against is what worries me, because these these 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.280 teams have been out of the game very early, not 0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:32.960 able to try to run the ball, and then they 0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:34.920 have to they have to resort to trying to get 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:36.880 out and have Sam Howell throw it fifty times or 0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:39.400 whoever they're playing, throw up fifty times because they're up 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:42.240 fourteen to twenty one points. We are going to get 0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:44.760 a chance moving through the season now with this week, 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:46.960 next week and then playing Detroit against some teams who 0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:48.920 are gonna line up and they're gonna say, we're gonna 0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:51.200 see if your interior defensive line is ready to play 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:53.280 or not. Can you can you hold a whole point 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:55.360 on the double team and keep them off the linebackers. Like, 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:56.920 we're going to get an opportunity to see that, and 0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:59.560 it's gonna start this week. For whatever Seattle is they got. 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:01.839 Like I said, I believe they have some pretty big wins. 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:04.400 They have a win against Detroit, who and that was 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:06.840 Detroit at the time, and we say, hey, this this 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:09.360 is a team they got to win against. They beat Cleveland, right, 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.240 so I believe they beat Cleveland as well. This is 0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:16.400 Whenland cleavesand Cleveland's defense is what Cleveland defense is, right, 0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:19.400 twenty four twenties on them and they beat them. So 0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:22.080 like they they can compete against the really good teams 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:23.520 and they can win against a really good team. 0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:25.320 So to me, it's nothing for you to sleep on. 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:27.199 You got to come and bring bring your a game 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.160 because if you don't, this is a team that could 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:31.280 really you know, they could put you behind you. 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:33.040 You'd be looking worse than you did against Arizona. 0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:36.360 And that comes to and you guys, Danny and Barry 0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:38.840 gots former players. That's that's that's what the locker room takes. 0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:41.719 That's what guys in the room have to understand and 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:44.800 and and and challenge each other to meet meet the standard, 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:48.040 meet the standard, and they hear they hear the negativity. 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:51.720 I mean, you saw social media several people just lined 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:54.440 up after Thanksgiving that they haven't beaten the winning team 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:56.960 that is Prescott's got a record. That's bad, you know. 0:09:57.080 --> 0:09:59.320 Yeah in terms of uh, you know, you're putting up 0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:01.520 an empty step, all these empty cap You've heard all 0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:04.120 that stuff that they hear it, they know it. So 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:07.920 this is the next game on the schedule, Handle your business, 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:10.800 and now you get ready for NBC Sunday Night Football 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:13.160 in ten days and to see what you can do 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:14.720 against the philadelp Yeah. 0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:16.760 And it's like, like we all said, we all agreeing 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:18.160 up here, this is gonna be a test for the 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:21.400 Dallas Cowboys, both offensively and defensively. But when you know, 0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:24.080 I'm looking at the schedule, is there has there been 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:25.839 an offense? And maybe this is kudos to what dan 0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:28.640 Quinn is doing in that defense, but has there been 0:10:28.679 --> 0:10:31.840 an offense that has threatened this team outside of the 0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:34.200 forty nine ers and the Eagles. I mean, you're gonna 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:36.079 be at the Arizona game. I think I'll say that's 0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:38.160 a track. I'll say that you know they overlooked that one. 0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.440 The one time Mark McCarthy's teams overlook. I'll say that 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:42.480 about them because I didn't. I didn't think that Arizona 0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:44.000 was that good. They just got they gotta do up 0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:46.839 whatever it is. Do y'all think it's we haven't had 0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:49.920 an offense other than those two squads earlier that threatens 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:51.720 this defense. Or is that more of what dan quinnin 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:54.119 this defense is able to do to opposing offenses. 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:58.040 I mean, I think you just said, that's just who's 0:10:58.080 --> 0:10:59.480 the first quarterback we've played against? 0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:06.040 Was? Uh? You guy? And then and then you get 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:10.240 then you play the Jets as okay, Then you got Jones, 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:11.880 all right, Jack? 0:11:14.400 --> 0:11:19.679 Then he had her Herbert Stafford Hurts got hurt. 0:11:19.760 --> 0:11:22.600 But then the thing that like Stafford started that game, 0:11:23.000 --> 0:11:25.120 he started that game. You come into the game talking 0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:27.880 about Pooking, the cool and the year that he's having, 0:11:28.120 --> 0:11:29.920 and I think the defense rises to that and you 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.360 shut him down. It's like that wasn't that good? I 0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:34.240 mean I'm talking. I'm sitting here talking to guys that. 0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:36.960 Played in I was the one that week that said 0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:39.360 this is gonna be a blowout down Like I literally said, 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:42.880 a blowout maybe the whole week the whole week. 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:46.760 Maybe not, but y'all, but you you didn't know way 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:48.440 you came into that game thinking that they were gonna 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:51.040 blank pooking the cool based off for the yards he'd 0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:51.840 already he. 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:54.120 Said they were. I said they. 0:11:54.240 --> 0:11:56.440 I said that Cooper Cup he was coming back that 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.080 week and then pooking the cool. They were some people 0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:01.440 that you need to worry about. Didn't know that Stafford 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:03.640 was gonna get hurt. We weren't playing very well before 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:05.679 he before he did get hurt. But he did get 0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:08.120 hurt and he was out. I'm not saying that what 0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:10.439 they what they're not, what they're doing is not impressive. 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:13.440 He's asking, Hey, when you look at the quarterbacks that 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:15.640 you're playing against, the ones that you have played against, 0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:18.400 specially these forty point wins, they guys that you look 0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:20.120 around the league and you say, hey, man, these teams 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:22.800 might be looking to draft somebody with the first pick, 0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:26.120 because they records say that for the most part, right, Josh, 0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:27.360 Josh Dobbs. 0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:29.359 Not even in reevaluated. 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:29.480 Right. 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:34.520 He came out really and that was the start of 0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:36.199 the Josh Dobbs like, Hey, I don't know, you might 0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:38.720 be a guy. Let's trade He got trade value based 0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:39.240 on what he did. 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:40.400 Does so? 0:12:41.160 --> 0:12:43.520 I mean, yes, you have an opportunity coming up, you know, 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:46.520 throughout the season to play against big time quarterbacks. Jalen 0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:49.280 Hurt was a test. You failed that test? Did you didn't? 0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:51.280 We didn't win that game. You're gonna have a chance 0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:52.839 to go against Jared Golf. You're gonna have a chance 0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:55.839 to go against the Geno Smith quarterback winning record. Like 0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:58.319 You're gonna have an opportunity to really show, hey man, 0:12:58.320 --> 0:12:59.800 we got some quarterbacks on the on the on the 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.040 US that we that we really did what we were 0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:04.480 supposed to do against, and they were really good quarterback. 0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:07.320 I'm surprised you didn't pick Herbert when when we played 0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:10.680 when we played the Chargers, I did pick the Chargers. Okay, 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:13.640 I'm just saying, did we play against a quarterback of 0:13:13.760 --> 0:13:14.640 I'm saying, And. 0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:16.240 That's why I was asking, is it more of what 0:13:16.360 --> 0:13:18.760 dan Quinn is doing or is it these quarterbacks? Because 0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:21.000 they shut down a lot of cats, They shut down 0:13:21.000 --> 0:13:22.640 a lot of offenses when we look at it. But 0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:25.839 those same offenses that we're looking at now, I mean, 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:27.679 like Daddy said, they're a roller coaster right now. Let 0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:29.439 me look at Sam Howe. He's up one day, he's 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:31.760 looking like Mahomes. The next day he's looking like whoever 0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:34.240 out there. And you look at Herbert his past two games, 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:36.080 I mean, he can't find an open receiver out there. 0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:39.000 And it's to me, I think it's it's more of 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:40.800 what dan Quinn. I'm leaning towards more of what dan 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:42.520 Quinn is doing. But this will be a test because 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:44.680 this is, to me, the third best quarterback when you 0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:47.280 talk about everything around him that is able to go 0:13:47.360 --> 0:13:48.840 against his Dallas Cowboys defense. 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:52.040 Let's get our first break in here. Let's answer the 0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:55.720 pod question when we come back.
