Okay, sorry, 37 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: the accent just comes out sometimes. All right, let's jump 38 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: into this thing. Um. Let's first talk about some news 39 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: that that broke yesterday. After we spent a little while 40 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: yesterday talking about Kellen Moore. Yeah, Cowboys a Saturday, you know, 41 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: as we got other things we need to be concerned about, 42 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: and so they do need to make a move. They 43 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: bring up Blake Jarwin from the practice squad. He's a 44 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: tight end um and as a part of that, they 45 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: released Kellen Moore. Talk to me about why all that 46 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: went down yesterday. Well, I think more than anything, the 47 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: Cowboys like Blake Jarwin. They do. And regardless of what 48 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: fans think or no or what the tight end that 49 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: they want them to put on the roster, Blake Jarwin's 50 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: a guy that they like. He's he's a big buddy 51 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: player who was getting some interest from from other teams. 52 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: And that's what happens when you when you you're about 53 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: to there to lose him, and they're like, well, we 54 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: don't want to and we have this roster spoably been 55 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: waiting on and and that's kind of what they decided 56 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: to do. So, Um, I don't know if Blake Darwin's 57 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: gonna play. I don't know if he'll be active. I 58 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: know he's going to Washington, he's not going to h 59 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 1: He's not gonna go duck hunting. I believe it's what 60 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: he was going to do this weekend. That that was 61 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: his plan. So he called his buddy up and said, hey, man, 62 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: I don't think I can go, And he's like why, 63 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: He's like, because I got signed to the team as 64 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: a professional football And he said, uh yeah, if you 65 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: show up in Oklahoma, I'm going to kick your ass. 66 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: That's what friend told him. So yeah, he was a 67 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: good friend sided for him obviously, And but I don't 68 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: know what this means, you know, long term. I just 69 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: know that Kellen Moore was expendable and let him go. 70 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: What kind of what kind of player is this, Dave? 71 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: Is Is this a bub blocking type tight end? Is 72 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: this a guy that catches balls? He's both like, what 73 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: what kind of player is he? I think he's he's 74 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: more of a pass catcher than like a tenacious blocker. 75 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: But I think he's good enough at I mean, he's 76 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: a he's an all around tight end. He played in college. 77 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: He played in one of those wide open type offenses 78 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: though Oklahoma State. I mean, like this GUYAMA looking at 79 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: him more as a receiver than some type of maller blocker. 80 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: And I think Nick's right, this is really more about 81 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: we found this guy. We developed him all summer. We 82 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: think he's a good player, and we don't want to 83 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: lose him, and we especially don't want to lose him 84 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: to a division rival. This isn't I would be surprised 85 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: if he's active, but they don't. Didn't hear any team 86 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: that was interested, was it? What's that? I didn't hear 87 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: any team that was the widely accepted reporters that was Philly. Yeah, um, 88 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: he was like a guy that would they would use there. 89 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: But you know, I mean, and you like Rico. I 90 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: said this yesterday on Twitter. Rico was the talk of 91 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: training camp, justifiably so with the plays that he made 92 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: in the preseason. But I specifically remember because you know 93 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: when it gets down to cut day, like when you're 94 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: getting down to that final week. Actually, I think we 95 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 1: were at the telethon um Brad Sham and I had 96 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: a long conversation with Jason Witton about the roster and 97 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: just like what it's probably gonna look like, what there 98 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: might do. And Jason Witton, who's going to be a 99 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, was like eighty nine Blake Jarwin, who 100 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: he won't be here because somebody also get him, like 101 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: he's a really good player. He won't make it through 102 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: the practice squad. Somebody else will sign him. Really that 103 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: was back then, That was in August. Jason Witton was like, 104 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: this guy's a damn good player, and I doubt we 105 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: can hold on to him. So take that for what 106 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: it's worth. Like the best, one of the best to 107 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: ever play tight end thinks he's a damn good player. 108 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: So let me so let me ask this and this 109 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: may be well ahead and tell me if this is 110 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 1: way too early to have this conversation. But when you 111 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: bring this guy up because you feel like you just 112 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: wanted to hold on to him, you got rico on ir. 113 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: What is that saying about Hannah and swam I mean, 114 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: obviously they're here this year, they're gonna be here this year, 115 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: but going into next year, Yeah, it certainly doesn't look 116 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 1: like they are cemented as players that will be here. Right. 117 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: It says don't buy a house, I mean department, I 118 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: mean swam in Hannah, I mean, both of them pretty 119 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: good at what they're doing. But and I think Hannah 120 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: is a restrict unrestricted free agent, right I think so? 121 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: I think he's got one year he signed a three 122 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: year did he not sign a three year extension in 123 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. Need that great book. I think he did 124 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: um to keep one in here for you. I need 125 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: to make one for myself. That used to make it 126 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: PR we got left out. UM. But I think that 127 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: he is UM. Basically, those guys are going to be 128 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: you know, I mean if they're not free agents next year. 129 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: I mean James James Hann has signed through twenty eighteen, okay, uh, 130 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: and Blade as a draft pick. Jeff Swam has one 131 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: year left on his deal too. It's what I mean. Honestly, 132 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: I think this says more about Rico Gathers than Jeff's 133 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: real for now or for the future, both at least 134 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: for right now. I mean, he's not eligible to come 135 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: back to the roster till next week anyway, but he's 136 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: he's not practicing. He's been eligible to practice for two weeks. 137 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: And again, you know, I've said this a million times. 138 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: You don't want to speculate about a head injury because 139 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 1: that's dicey, and it's you know, it's not like a 140 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: hamstring or a broken bone, where it's like, well, everything 141 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: will be better after this amount of weeks. For all 142 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: I know, he's still dealing with that, But didn't we 143 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: think something was kind of weird there when this happened 144 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: to begin with. I mean when you go to when 145 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: you put a guy on IR for something like a concussion, 146 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: and then as of I mean, it would surprise me 147 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: if he has brought back to the roster next week. 148 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: Let's put it that way. And that's at this point 149 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: you're thinking, especially now that they brought in another tight 150 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: they brought up another tight end, there really is no 151 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: room for him to unless you're gonna get rid of somebody, 152 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: which Jarwin doesn't seem like they want to let him go. 153 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: You're not gonna get rid of one of those other 154 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: two guys. So I will I will say this much 155 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: like you know, I think we expect Kellen Moore to 156 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: be back here, do we not as a practice player. 157 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: So there's nothing. There's nothing keeping Blake Jarwin on the 158 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: fifty three for any sort of length of time. I 159 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: was talking to somebody about this the other day. Not 160 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: a rule, what's that? It's not a rule. It's a 161 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: rule if you sign somebody from somebody else's practice squad 162 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: but your own team. They haven't done this recently, but 163 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen, Keith Smith bounced between the practice squad 164 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: and the fifty three about eight times. Yeah, but it 165 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: isn't the difference here that the reason they brought him up, 166 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: presumably is because another team wanted him. If you're going 167 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: to try to get him back to practice squad, you 168 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: cut him. He's going somewhere old, right, But I mean, 169 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: and I don't know the mechanics of all this, but 170 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: I assume Philly wanted him because they're dealing with something. 171 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: Maybe zach Ertz pulled his hammy or so. I don't know. 172 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: But three weeks from now, will they still want him 173 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 1: as much as they do right now? I don't know, 174 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: But there's nothing other than their desire to keep him 175 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: keeping Jarwin on the roster, you know what I mean, Like, 176 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: there's no rule that he has to be there. So 177 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: this isn't some type of set in stone decision. But 178 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: it is weird when you think about tight end and 179 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: you think about the fact that Rico is presumably, at 180 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: least according to the rules, he's close to coming back, 181 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: but I don't see that happening in the immediate future. Okay, 182 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: all right, let's move down to some injury talk. Let's 183 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: talk first about Malie Collins, who showed up on the 184 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: injury report yesterday had not been on the injury report 185 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 1: earlier in the week with a foot injury, was limited 186 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: in practice. Do we know anything about his injury and 187 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: how serious it may be with regards to him playing 188 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: this weekend? Well, I was gonna say this yesterday before 189 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: I even knew about this injury. Is that? But now 190 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: the injury gets us talking about him because we haven't 191 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: been in a while, you know, when you think about it, 192 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: in the last three weeks, I mean I was kind 193 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: of like, has he played? I mean, I don't. He's 194 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: playing one technique I understand. I understand. It's a position 195 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: that doesn't get a lot of notoriety unless you're making 196 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: a lot of plays, and early on he kind of was. 197 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: And then it's he's kind of fallen off of something. 198 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: But you know, I think he'll be okay. I mean, 199 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: he's limited on a Thursday, added to it. Let's see 200 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: what happens here today. But it might just we've seen 201 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: this boy three or four times already this year. Of 202 00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: these players added to the injury report on a Thursday, Um, 203 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: you know, and they've all played. I believe maybe not 204 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: Chaz Green. I don't think um Durant last week, but 205 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: yeah for them, I mean, well then you know then 206 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: I know Chaz didn't and I guess Durant, So it's 207 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: maybe it's been more fifty fifty. And uh, Barron Jones 208 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: was someone that got added tiring like the Frasier guys. 209 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: So you know, I don't know what's happening in this 210 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: wins they practice, but it seems like it's pretty physical 211 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: they're getting after it. Yeah, a foot injury. That could 212 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: just be, you know, kind of just stepped the wrong way, 213 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: step on somebody's foot. You know. Our timing, our timing 214 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: sucks with this because he got hurt or we knew 215 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: he was hurt at four o'clock yesterday afternoon and we 216 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 1: haven't had a chance to talk to anybody since then. 217 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: So we'll see. Okay, you want to do the show, 218 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: it's like five pm or I'm here at five pm. 219 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: So actually that would get in the way of cover four. 220 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: So sorry, I can't do that getting the way of 221 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: cover four. And this is way off the sudd No, 222 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,839 Speaker 1: it's not. Actually you should have mentioned it earlier. Go ahead, 223 00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: whatever you're about now. I was gonna say, this is 224 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: way off to say, I just saw it on the 225 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: TV screen that J'asia hit last night. Yes, that was like, 226 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever seen a more vicious it. 227 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: And I don't even know if it was dirty, it 228 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 1: just so vicious it next guy Kiko, yeah, also, and 229 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,319 Speaker 1: it was just I don't think I've seen a player 230 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: be that knocked out, like the way he looked like 231 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: in kind of was raising his hand and it was 232 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: kind of scary. You kind of have moments where like 233 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 1: you're forced to confront how horrifically violent football is, you 234 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like it's easy to kind of 235 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: forget about it when everybody's wearing a helmet and you're 236 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 1: watching on TV. But when you see Joe Flacco like 237 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: not know where he is at, and you're just and 238 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: you can see his face because the helmet came out, 239 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, these guys really like play a 240 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: dangerous game. I mean, I've said this one hundred times 241 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: before it and I'll say it again. I guess they're 242 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: never gonna change the rule, but I hate it for 243 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: the defensive players. I really do. I feel like that 244 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: as a and these running quarterbacks, they gotta just piss 245 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: off defensive players because it's like they play as long 246 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: as they want to play, and then when they decide 247 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: the game the play is over to them, then they 248 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: can slide and you can't touch me. I hate that rule. 249 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: I really, I think behind the line of scrimmage, protect 250 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 1: them any way you want to. You can't touch them, 251 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 1: you can't hit them, you can't do anything. But if 252 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: you come to this side of the tracks, you come 253 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: over here, you're trying to score in my end zone, 254 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: then there's no sliding and all that. If you want 255 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: to come over here. If you don't, then stay in 256 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: your precious pocket and throw passes. I hate that. And 257 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: you know what I actually and he runs, runs, runs, 258 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 1: and then it says I'm gonna slide, and like Kiko 259 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,479 Speaker 1: Alonso is supposed to just hold up at the last second. 260 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I actually personally believe that sliding makes the 261 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: game more dangerous. And here's why. Because if you see 262 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: a running back or a person that's running the ball, 263 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: typically a receiver, usually when they're in a situation where 264 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 1: they're confronted by someone that's trying to tackle them, they 265 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: either lower their shoulder or in this case, of some 266 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: receivers when they go across the middle, they catch the 267 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: ball and you'll see him a defender's coming. They get down. 268 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 1: They don't slide, they get down. Sliding you put yourself 269 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: in a more vulnerable position. You're giving yourself up. So 270 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: if a guy can't readjust at the last minute, you're 271 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: gonna take the kind of hit that you took last night, 272 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 1: as opposed to if that quarterback dies or goes down 273 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 1: or just protects himself from the tackle by lowering his shoulder. 274 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: Either way, he's more defending himself than he is when 275 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: he gives himself up and the defender can't adjusting enough 276 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: time to stop himself from hitting him. I actually think 277 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: sliding is worse for the game than better for the 278 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 1: game personally fair, I mean, I just think you're we're 279 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: asking these players, and especially on the college level, and 280 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: it's happening in high school too. These guys get and 281 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: there's no replay in that. I mean, these guys get 282 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: ejected for plays, you know, and they're crunching down and 283 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the guy leans down and he 284 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: hits him in the head, and then it's targeting and 285 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: you look at it super slow mo, and you're like, wow, 286 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: he was targeting him in the head, when really was like, bo, 287 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 1: I mean, you can't so fast? Yeah, because if you 288 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: can watched that play in live motion, it's it's so 289 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: it happened so quickly. I agree with you. I don't 290 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: know that he had the ability the defender had the 291 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: ability to readjust after Flacco decides he's gonna slide. You know, 292 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: It's just happened so quickly. It's hard to really determine 293 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: that might have been one of these. I mean, two 294 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: weeks ago he had one of the best Thursday night games. Yeah, 295 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: this might have been the worst. Forty to nothing, just 296 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: more fights than I mean. I remember when I moved 297 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: here and the first time I watched football, I watched 298 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: it and I'm like, oh my god, Like, why do 299 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: people enjoy this game? What's the point? Why do you 300 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: even want to play this game? Get hit, fall on 301 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: the ground, get back up, get hit again, fall again 302 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: and over and over. Well, and now you're all. I 303 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: was shocked when I first saw that. I'm like, oh 304 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: my god, what is going on? But then yeah, now 305 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: here I am, and now you're fighting and getting into 306 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 1: the game. Run catch the ball, hit. That guy got 307 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: that blood lust like the rest of us. All right, 308 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: let's get back into this. We do need to talk 309 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: about inactives. I think there are obviously a few guys 310 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: that we know will be inactive. Got Dan Bailey, you got. 311 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put Teto on that list. I assume there's 312 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: no way he plays, uh, Darren McFadden. I assume Byron 313 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: Bill will probably be an active. He was an active 314 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: last week. Seems like they were okay running with seven 315 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: offensive linements, so I think he'll probably be an active. 316 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: That gets you to four. Who else do you think 317 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: makes the inactive list? Obviously you got Kyle Wilbur who 318 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: has misspracticed this week with a knee injury. You got 319 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: Justin Durant, who they made inactive last week. You've got 320 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: Blake Jarwin, who they just brought up. It's likely he's 321 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: gonna probably be an act because they're not gonna have 322 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: what five tight ends active with him, I'm sorry, four 323 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: active tight ends. So let's put Blake on there, and 324 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: then that gets you to five. Who are the other 325 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: two that you think actually end up on the end. 326 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: I think one of those linebackers is safe. Durant or Wilbur. Yeah, 327 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: we could say one of those two guys, well, yeah, 328 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: Durant or Wilbur, one of those two will be an 329 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: active Yeah, okay, so who's the other? I gotta get 330 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: to seventh seventh guy? We do? We have to Let's 331 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: let's say that we have to. Um. I mean, Noah 332 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: Brown is always a candidate, He's always up there. He 333 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: made a nice block though last week. That's true. I 334 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: mean he did and he got to play. You don't 335 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: have to sell me, um, It's just it just doesn't 336 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: get I mean, good sit Benson Maya well again, I 337 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: don't know, yeah, I mean was that we never really 338 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: talked about that? Was that? Why? Why sit Benson Mayo? 339 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: I mean, he is a rotation guy. I don't think 340 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: he's been horrible, do you, guys? I mean I think 341 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: we said this on Monday. I mean I'm asking is 342 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: it when a when a healthy veteran who's been playing, 343 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: who nobody's talked about as an inactive all week, is 344 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: inactive on Sunday? It strikes me as being about more 345 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: than football. And I don't I mean Demontre Moore was 346 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: also SAT and two days later he was cut. So again, 347 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: you say Mayo was about to get cut. No, I'm 348 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: saying I'm breaking news here. No saying that. I'm just 349 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: I'm saying it looks it looks suspicious to me. And 350 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: maybe that was disciplinary or something like that. I don't know, 351 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: but obviously it doesn't appear as though he's going to 352 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: be cut. But maybe it's related to that. I don't 353 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,400 Speaker 1: know if it carries over into this week or not. 354 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 1: So you're six biggest free agent signings over the last 355 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: two years down for me, none of them are playing 356 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: in this game. Most of them aren't even on the team. 357 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 1: You're three from this year. Mayo or really, I mean 358 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: Byron Bell was in there? Byron Bell? Yeah, not playing 359 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 1: well Byron Bell. He was picked up to be an 360 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 1: insurance policy. So you don't need your insurance policy. All 361 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 1: he said was free agents. Yeah, I get it. And 362 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: he's not active right, which again that that was probably 363 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 1: the role they expected for him. So Bell Piez retired, 364 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: Nolan Carroll's cut, Demontre Moore's cut, and then from last 365 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 1: year Cedric Thornton cut, Vince in Mayowa was inactive last week. 366 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 1: We'll see about this week. Hmmm. I actually wrote build 367 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: through the draft I wrote my column about this yesterday 368 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 1: if anybody wants to read it, just saying what what 369 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 1: what was your what was your point? Like, what was 370 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: the point? What were you saying? In then he said, 371 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: Will McClay is not not doing his job. It's what 372 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 1: are you saying? My overall point was it is I 373 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: would never say that about my dear friend, Billy will McClay. 374 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: Billy Will Hilly will McClay. I don't know if you're 375 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: friends anymore. Um, after you said that, My main my 376 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: main point in the story was that it's a very 377 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: bad look. But the way the Cowboys have opted to 378 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: build their team one it me saying it doesn't matter. 379 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: That's not the right phrase, but it doesn't hurt them. 380 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: And that's the like when you bargain hunt like this, 381 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,120 Speaker 1: this team is not worse off because these guys are 382 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 1: not playing, and that's their whole strategy to begin with, 383 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 1: as they do want to build through the draft, and 384 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: I get that it's frustrating, but they they haven't signed 385 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: a free agent to be like a cornerstone, depend on 386 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 1: this guy player in a while, and so, like I said, 387 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: it looks bad when they have to make these moves, 388 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: but that's why they do it this way in the 389 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: first places, so they have that flexibility. Uh, Jordan Lewis 390 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 1: is above and beyond an upgrade over what we saw 391 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: from Nolan Carroll Pia pia I. That strikes me as 392 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: being a little bit different. It's not like they cut 393 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: him because he couldn't play. He was pretty damn good 394 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 1: and he just happened to get hurt. But they but 395 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: but in all fairness, this was a recurring injury for him. 396 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: This was something that would that had been around. So wow, 397 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: that that one puts them in a little more of 398 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: a bind than the other ones in my opinion. And 399 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: then um oh, and then but but I'm sorry, but dude, 400 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 1: they cut Cedric Thornton here and he is he on 401 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: a team with the Bills. Okay, he cut Cedric Thornton 402 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: knowing that Pie is going to be, you know, retired 403 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: in a few months, would you have gone back and 404 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: cut him? Yeah? Maybe probably not, which they wanted to 405 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 1: get rid of him, But they also were able to 406 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: get by those weeks without Irving with Pie, Like Pie 407 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:08,120 Speaker 1: gave you some something during those few weeks to where 408 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: you could kind of get by until you got irving. Back. 409 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: And now not to say he was expendable, but you 410 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 1: would have had a decision anyway of who was going 411 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 1: to be your starter there and it's now clearly irving, right. 412 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,680 Speaker 1: It's it's like I said, it's a it's a bad look. 413 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: But I think Stephen Jones would rather bargain hunt and 414 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: throw away these expendable guys than not, you know, potentially 415 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: beginning production from a guy that he had given a 416 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: boatload of money too, which in their experience is what 417 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: has happened in free agency anyway. But it does, it 418 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 1: does put a lot of pressure on your draft. Now. 419 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: It means you gotta hit on your draft picks, and 420 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: when you have a guy like Randy Gregory, that sets 421 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: you back because you're not going out in free agency 422 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: to do it. You're you're using picks to build your team, 423 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: and when those don't, when those fall apart, then that 424 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: that can really really set you back. It's it's gonna 425 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: be interesting because I mean, we could talk until we're 426 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: blew in the face about how good of a job 427 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 1: they've done putting their offense together through the draft, um 428 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: the defense. And we argued about this not that long ago, 429 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: like they've put plenty of resources into the defense hasn't 430 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: worked out very well. And there's there's a few like 431 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: you've you've got a few pieces now though, Like you've 432 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 1: got Malik uh Jalen is there whom I I mean, 433 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens with DeMarcus and then Taco and 434 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: I would throw I would probably throw Byron in there. 435 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: Like that's five guys that you would hope can become 436 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 1: like the cornerstone, and and Jordan Lewis don't and and 437 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 1: yeah potentially which and maybe Xavier, Like there are lots 438 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 1: of guys that you're kind of looking and I mean, 439 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of Xavierwoods, but I'm not going 440 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: to throw him into that category just because he's a 441 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: sixth round pick. I mean, that's it's not that's not 442 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: that crazy. You don't put you don't put Anthony Brown 443 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: and that That's what I'm saying, right, And if you're 444 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: not gonna win in free agency all the time, you 445 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 1: do have to steal some with the sixth round and 446 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 1: David Irvings. But but when I'm talking, when I'm talking 447 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 1: about building your team through the draft, you just have 448 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,199 Speaker 1: to hit on those like top one hundred I got you. 449 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a must hiring Travis zach Zeke those 450 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: like I mean Deaz, those are the ones that turn 451 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: your friend like that you build your franchise around and 452 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: if you can somehow just get like a fourth late 453 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: fourth round pick and making like the yeah, it's always 454 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: I would be good. That's always great. But that's the thing, 455 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 1: like I know a lot of people probably are looking 456 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: at this as say, man, what are they doing with 457 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: the free agency? But looking at it overall, it's hard 458 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: to say that this front office hasn't done a good 459 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: job building through the draft, because you're, like you said, 460 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: and they have built this team and turn this this 461 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,919 Speaker 1: thing around where they feel like they they've built it 462 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,439 Speaker 1: not only a good team, but a good team that 463 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: can play different ways going and going back to my point, 464 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: that's that's all great on the offensive side of the ball. 465 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 1: On the defensive side, I think in another year or two, 466 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna know just how good of a job they've done, 467 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: because we can no longer younger say that they're not 468 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 1: investing in defense. That's not true anymore. And just we 469 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,880 Speaker 1: don't know if those picks are going to pan out yet, right, 470 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: And they haven't. They haven't hit on that big time 471 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: playmaker like they've hit on offense right right, They've got 472 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 1: some good, solid pieces. I think they just haven't gotten 473 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: that playmaker. Maybe DeMarcus Lawrence becomes that. Well, maybe we'll 474 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: have to wait and see on that. All right, let's 475 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: take our first break.

No. I 533 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a struggle for more of a 534 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: struggle this week. Like a bad game. Well, I doesn't 535 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: hit a hundred, it's gonna be a mud bowl. Let me, 536 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: can I change your question? One hundred yards? Does he 537 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 1: hit a hundred yards rushing? Yes? Yeah, yeah, yeah, you 538 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 1: know what, he probably will because there's not gonna be 539 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: a ton of passing in this because of the weather. 540 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: It's gonna Yeah, it's supposed to rain all day. And 541 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: this is the NFL. They can throw in the rain, 542 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: can't they. I don't know. Forty to forty degrees let 543 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 1: me start, not when you're playing football. That's nice time. 544 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: It's not gonna be the running shoot out there. I mean, 545 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 1: they're gonna oh I'm not saying that, but be grinded 546 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: out game. I'll tell you this, boy scout where they 547 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 1: you know, the guys running in the mud like that, 548 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 1: dim lights and everything. No, I mean I'll tell you this, 549 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: if it turns into a game where it's all about 550 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 1: running and you can't pass. It clearly favors the Cowboys. 551 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: I just don't think. I don't think the Redskins they're 552 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: passing attack. I don't think it stops because it's raining. No, 553 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 1: I don't think it's stopped. I think they'll still be 554 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: throwing the ball. You know, it's got to be pretty 555 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: dire circumstances for NFL teams not to be able to 556 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: pass one eighteen. The rushing yard, that's what Zeke's gonna 557 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: run our Kurt Cousins passing. Now, Kurt one eighteen, you're 558 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: pretty specific on that one. What you just have that 559 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: epiphany as one eighteen just now, just just trust me, 560 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: just trust me on this. I guess we'll find out soon. Okay, 561 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense will be able to stop Chris Thompson. No, no, no, no, 562 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have some At the end of this game, 563 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 1: Cowboys fans will know who Christian Yeah, he's gonna let's 564 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: just say that they're gonna know who Chris Thomps is. Okay, 565 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: we've seen the Cowboys struggle against better quarterbacks such as 566 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, Golf's Kirk Cousin one of those guys that 567 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: will make them really struggle here. See see he threw 568 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: for eight hundred yards in their two games last year. Yeah, 569 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: he will, he will have his yards. I don't care 570 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:18,399 Speaker 1: if his reigning, I don't care. H some monsoon he's 571 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 1: gonna have his yards against Cowboys. First for all. The 572 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,400 Speaker 1: question was when you said like Aaron Rodgers, Jared God. 573 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he's in between those. Between those, he's more 574 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: closer to golf. I mean, he hasn't really played that 575 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: well against the Cowboys in my opinion, but he throws 576 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: for yards. He's gonna get like congratulations. But he's still 577 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 1: like miss this guy's deep. Uh. He still throws it 578 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: in the end zone interceptions. He's one and four against 579 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, like he you know, I still remember the game. God, 580 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think when Garson had a huge day. 581 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: Remember that game he had a huge day against Brandon 582 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:00,080 Speaker 1: Carr who was sick, and they switched over just and 583 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: Rick and I wage remember fourth and ten with the 584 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: game on the line, Kirk Cousins game on the line, 585 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: throws it out of bounce because he didn't want to 586 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: take the sack. I was like Okay, well that's smart 587 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 1: football right there. I don't know he's gotten better since them, 588 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: but I still think he I don't think he's like elite. No, 589 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: I wouldn't call him elite, but I do think their 590 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: passing offense is elite. Yeah, but I mean I think 591 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: it's amongst something, one of the best in the league. 592 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: And I think I think against this defense, I think 593 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: they're gonna get a lot of yards. The only thing 594 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: they can do that I think this defense has shown 595 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: at times that it can do is not allow him 596 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 1: in the end zone and force the m ckick field goals. 597 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: And if you can do that, then I think that's 598 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys best chance of winning. But I think they're 599 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: gonna move up and down the field. On Thanksgiving last year, 600 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: he completed seventy seven percent of his passes for four 601 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards and three touchdowns. That's really great. 602 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna be that good because 603 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: it's gonna be raining and it's gonna be outdoors, but 604 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 1: he's gonna get his yards. I don't I think the 605 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: Cowboys are gonna win this game, but Kirk Cousins is 606 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: going to play well against them. Yep. Okay, and this game, 607 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence will get to his first career double digit sack. 608 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: Yes see yeah, I see yeah. Their whole offensive line, 609 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 1: like do they even have one? Ye? Didn't they have 610 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: a third tackle now on their injury report. The whole 611 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: lines on the injury report, the five guys that missed 612 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: practice yesterday were all offensive lightnman, four starters and a 613 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,239 Speaker 1: backup tackle. Those are the five that missed. So now 614 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: they're on their fourth tackle, fourth and fifth tackles in 615 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: practice yesterday. That's that's one of the reasons why I 616 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: think they didn't practice on Wednesday. I just have an 617 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: offensive line. But all those guys are not gonna miss 618 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: because they would be they would be pulling, they would 619 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: have to be signing guys. They're not expecting all all 620 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 1: those guys to MISSY know, like Trent Williams is he's 621 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: not gonna practice, but he's gonna play. The one I 622 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: want to know about Brandon Shuff I want to you know, 623 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: and Morgan Moses is gonna play. But there I'll just 624 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 1: overcompensate with a bad ankle when the other one's bad. Yeah, 625 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: that two bad ankles, Yes, yeah, I just and that's 626 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: the guy going up against the Marcus Lawrence. The Cowboys 627 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: better have like, they better have three or four sacks. 628 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: There's I mean, not a lot of not a lot 629 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: of excuses, especially for a team that likes to throw 630 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: the ball anyway. They like to throw it a lot. Yeah, 631 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: I think you need to be sacking him all the 632 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: whole game, like that just needs to be thirty five 633 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: sacks something like that, like every series, give me a sack, 634 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: Like I just want to see a sack game. That 635 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: would be like nine sacks. There we go, Okay, cool, 636 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: there we go. Expectations. Did you see that stat? The 637 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: Jaguars are the only team since the eighty four Bears, 638 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: which is you know, we always say to eighty five Bears, 639 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: but I'm sure the eighty four Bears were pretty good too. 640 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: Only team to have ten sacks in the season twice 641 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 1: during the year, like in two different games, Saxonville. That's insane. 642 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: That's so many when you pick they got talent, Yeah, 643 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: they got a ton of talent in the gut. And 644 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 1: one of them it's not even there. It's Klai's Campbell 645 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 1: and he's not even there. Guyante Fowlers, He's got like 646 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: already like eight sacks or something like, he's right right, 647 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: he leads the league? Does he lead the league? Yeah? 648 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: Fowlers not doing anything? Uh you know who? Which all right, 649 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: Sorry we're getting off the topic. Camera. Maybe Barry Church 650 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: was right about that talent over there, Kelvin Smith. Did 651 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: you think he was wrong? I thought he was just 652 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,479 Speaker 1: being like guy on Barry Church. Everything's happy, and you 653 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: know in Jacksonville he was kind I think he was. 654 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: I guess, so guess they do have more talent, especially 655 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: on defense. Yeah, that's on defense, right, on defense. Take Jacksonville, 656 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: give him that defense and put it with the Cowboys offense. Yeah, 657 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: that's team. Speaking of building through the draft, which I 658 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: love Anthony Hitchins, but Telvin Smith was drafted like thirty 659 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: spots after him. Yeah, just sign forty five million dollar 660 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: extension in Jacksonville because he's a beast off filled issues. 661 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: Well in college college is not here. Yeah, yea, he 662 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: got to roll the dice. So yeah, that's fun anyway. Okay, Well, 663 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: tying up to the whole bad offensive line or not bad, 664 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: just banged up offensive line here, Taco will finally have 665 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: a game where people are positively talking about him. No, 666 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: well no, well let me in made that sound absurd. No, 667 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: it is absurd, and it's not about Taco because he 668 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: could have a very solid game if in order for 669 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,239 Speaker 1: people to not be whining about Taco, he would need 670 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: to have like three sacks. That yes, it is. If 671 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: Taco got one sack, people would come in on money 672 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 1: and say, okay, maybe Taco, maybe tacos Taco had a 673 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: positive day. Yes, I would people wait, yeh, who are 674 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: you talking about? Because I listened to three people upstairs 675 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 1: that were like, he was really close to getting to 676 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: the quarterback and he almost made a sack. If Taco, 677 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: if Taco has like so the people that are trying 678 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: to defend him, well, yeah, they'll find something. Did you 679 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: see how he got off that three point stance? If 680 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: Taco has three pressures in a If Taco has three 681 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: pressures in a sack in this game, the average response 682 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: will be like sarcastic applause, like way to go. It 683 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 1: took you. I think that's you. I don't think most people, 684 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: because I don't think most people will I like and 685 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: defend Taco. I would. I would be happy with it. 686 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: I'm telling you. The for a lot of people. The 687 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: story has already been written on him, and obviously that's 688 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: not fair. But I'm telling you that's how he believe you, honestly, 689 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 1: don't I don't believe. I think. I think if he 690 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: gets a sack this week. I think whenever he gets 691 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: a sack. Whenever he gets a sack, people will come 692 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: out of the game and they will want to be 693 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 1: optimistic about him from the standpoint of, well, he got 694 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,919 Speaker 1: a sack, maybe he's kind of figuring it out. Let's 695 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: see if maybe we want to tract you the taco 696 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 1: emoji all over Twitter? Yeah you will. You think Scooter 697 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: recruiters could be like okay Taco, right, he would. He 698 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: would need to like he's a spokesman of fans, right, yeah. 699 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 1: He would need to be like NFC of defensive rookie 700 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 1: of the week for people to like otherwise, because t J. 701 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 1: Watt's gonna get two sacks in Detroit on Sunday night 702 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: and everyone's gonna be like, oh, way to go, Taco, 703 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: you got one sack halfway through the season, Like fans 704 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 1: are harsh on first round picks. I'm just telling you, right, No, 705 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 1: I agree with that. I just again, I just think 706 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: a sack. Maybe just a sack will do him good. 707 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 1: Like I think that you come away with a sack, 708 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: and I think at least people will get off of 709 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: him for a week and then their their expectations will 710 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: go up because the next week they'll say, can you 711 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 1: do it again? But for that one day, I think 712 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,240 Speaker 1: people would give him like, Okay, he got a set. 713 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 1: I hope he gets there so that one of us 714 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: can be proven correct. All right, it'll be me, but 715 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: that's cool. All right, we'll see what we still got 716 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: to get the sack first. And that's what I'm saying. 717 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 1: I hope he gets that. I'd be happy to have 718 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,319 Speaker 1: that conversation. If I don't think he's gonna make an 719 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: impact in this game at all. He hasn't really made 720 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 1: an impact in any game. Don't see it happen in 721 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 1: this Taco is gonna get a sack and a half 722 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 1: this game. Okay, all right, wait, wait till we get 723 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 1: to crazy predictions. All right, that's it, that's crazy, all right. 724 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: Special teams will be the deciding factor in Sunday's game. 725 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: Oh god, no, see I think so they don't make 726 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: field goals. I always have a new kicker. Oh yeah, 727 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: he's gonna be the The field position is going to 728 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: be really important. I think that's a really good one. Yes, 729 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: I think special teams and special teams you can argue 730 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 1: usually is a factor somehow. Even this last game, the 731 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 1: biggest play in the game was a special teams starting 732 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: kicker for both teams is out. So you're right, it 733 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,879 Speaker 1: factors in now because you've got backup kickers on both 734 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 1: teams having to kick field goals in inclement weather. You're right. Actually, 735 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 1: I agree with you. I'm gonna changed my answer. That 736 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: makes me. That makes me nauseous just thinking about it. Right, 737 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: did you get the Press Bucks food up there? Well, 738 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 1: twenty three twenty twenty three to twenty four, with like 739 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: one twenty to play, the Cowboys are on like the 740 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: twenty eight yard and out. Did you just say twenty 741 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: three to twenty four? What's wrong with that? Seriously? What? Okay? 742 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: Go ahead? That's your score using it as a hypothetical anyway, Like, 743 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: I just didn't think you would ever go I mean, 744 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 1: that's always higher score. First. Oh oh my god, that's 745 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 1: something I would say. It doesn't matter. It's twenty three 746 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 1: to twenty. That's gonna be on your annual review. I 747 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 1: thought it was something boys are on the twenty saying this, alright, 748 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: finish your finish your backwards point. They'll be on the 749 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:23,839 Speaker 1: twenty eight yard line, well within Dan Bailey's range, and 750 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: we'll just have to watch a nugget out there and 751 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 1: it happens. Watching and see what happens. We'll be on 752 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: the field at that point because I was wondering, is 753 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: it gonna be where we have the perfect view ever, 754 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,360 Speaker 1: or is it gonna look like, oh, that's somewhere in 755 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: South Carolina. Yeah, I can't tell the worst. I hate 756 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 1: this trip more than any trip. It's like it's just 757 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 1: it's the press box. It's just so bad. It's the 758 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: press everything about it. It's like all of their homewer 759 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,479 Speaker 1: guys that are screaming and yelling in the press box. 760 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: I think the game it's the worst. Yeah. It is 761 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 1: like they got half of their like half of their 762 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 1: alumni bases in the press box and just rooting for 763 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 1: their team, and it's like you got this four food 764 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,479 Speaker 1: over there. The views. I think FedEx Field, I can't 765 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 1: believe FedEx Field was built in the nineties, Like it 766 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: should be way better than it is. It was built 767 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: in the nineties. Yeah, opened in like ninety five or 768 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 1: ninety six, like it's not that old. Yeah, I didn't 769 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 1: realize that it's a dump. Ninety six was the last 770 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 1: game it RFK, So this was built in ninety seven. Yeah, 771 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 1: ninety seven was the first. Wow dump. Consider, I wouldn't 772 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: say dump. I think it's a dump. Like when you 773 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: say dump, then you're thinking about the Oakland, like forty 774 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: nine ers Old Stadium, and yeah, the Oakland Oakland is 775 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 1: a special caliber of dump. But I still think FedEx 776 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: Field is a dump. You know there were different versions. Yeah, 777 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: there's levels. There's levels. Okay, there's levels to this. Speaking 778 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: of time, what are you gonna say? No, no he 779 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 1: did wow, No no, no, no. I wasn't talking about 780 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 1: Taco Charlton. I thought you say taco. I thought you're 781 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: trying to be quite dump to talk. No, no no, no, no, no, 782 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: no no. It's like, wow, that's pretty harsh. I actually 783 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 1: think he I think he plays okay, Like I know 784 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: that from a first round pick, you're expecting more. But 785 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,120 Speaker 1: remember they didn't view him as a first round They 786 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,799 Speaker 1: think he's a second round pick. But have to turn 787 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: in the card and so I really think talk with Charlton. 788 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 1: I think Jordan Lewis plays a factor into this. I 789 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 1: really believe they have the draft so peg they know 790 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: who's not taking Jordan Lewis, who is taking Jordan Lewis, 791 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 1: Who's not gonna take this player where they can get 792 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 1: Switzer versus the pump free guy. They knew they were 793 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 1: gonna take Jordan Lewis, and that's why I think that 794 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 1: was better for them to get him than take Kevin 795 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 1: King or somebody right there. Now. I guess you could 796 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 1: say t J Watt if he wanted to go to 797 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,319 Speaker 1: another defensive end. Yep. But I'm a believer in when 798 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,839 Speaker 1: you get a first round pick that I just need 799 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,839 Speaker 1: to in that first year, whether it's in training camp, preseason, 800 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 1: regular season, just a few times I need to see 801 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 1: a flash of something that makes me say, Wow, that 802 00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 1: guy can be If he can do that consistently, he 803 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,359 Speaker 1: can be special. And I I've seen those moments when 804 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: Taco has done something in training camp where I was like, Wow, 805 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,399 Speaker 1: that was impressive. So that's the point. If you can 806 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: do that, then it says you're capable. Now can you 807 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:12,640 Speaker 1: figure out how to do it consistently and that's now 808 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 1: the challenge for him is how do you do that consistently? 809 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,359 Speaker 1: How do you had in a regular season game? How 810 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: do you then get consistent enough to do it regularly? 811 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 1: And it takes a little while. Typically the lord, the 812 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: draft pick, or the lord the quality of the player, 813 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 1: the longer it takes to get to that point. So 814 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,959 Speaker 1: it might take a little well, and again we've talked 815 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,360 Speaker 1: about the position itself that it is a position that 816 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: it takes a little bit of time to get the 817 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 1: handle of it, and kind of you usually don't tend 818 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: to jump in and be great right away. He doesn't 819 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,880 Speaker 1: have an NFL body right now to play that position. 820 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 1: Now he has an NBA body, but he needs an 821 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: NFL body, and I think needs some weights in his pocket. Yep, okay, 822 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 1: just to close off the game. Looking at the rest 823 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 1: of the schedule, this is definitely it must win for 824 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:04,720 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. No, see have to win. I would expected 825 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 1: you to say C two, why not becomes math? It's 826 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 1: it's just I don't know, it's common sense, like why 827 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 1: is this Well, I'll put it to you, like this 828 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 1: number one's division number two. It's a team that's right 829 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 1: there in that middle of the pack where ye where 830 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,839 Speaker 1: you're gonna be battling with them for for um um 831 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,440 Speaker 1: for playoff for the wildcard spots right um. So to me, 832 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 1: it's like, if you lose this game, you're putting yourself now, yes, 833 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 1: must win. No, because mathematically it's not a must win. 834 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: But just when you think about how this is the 835 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: type of game that if you lose it, you'll come 836 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,759 Speaker 1: week sixteen, week seventeen and you'll be like, that game 837 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 1: right there is that may cost us to playoff. That 838 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,879 Speaker 1: game already happened, and it was against the Rams. Here. 839 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:47,839 Speaker 1: That's the game where you look back and say, man, 840 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 1: we really shot ourselves in the foot. This is okay. 841 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 1: It's a division game. You're already won and one in 842 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: the division. The Redskins are already owing two, so you're 843 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 1: still up on them even if you lose this game 844 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 1: in terms of division, obviously they go ahead of you 845 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,960 Speaker 1: and overall record, but by beating the forty nine ers, 846 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,439 Speaker 1: you're already five hundreds. So if you lose this game, 847 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: you fall one game under. Obviously that's not ideal. With 848 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,359 Speaker 1: games against Kansas City and Atlanta coming out of then 849 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 1: what's the division record you've got the Cowboys at the 850 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 1: one and oh. He was saying, if they lose, they 851 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 1: would be win and one yea, they would still have 852 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 1: a better division winning percentage than the Redskins if they 853 00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 1: lose this game, Okay, but that means they fall one 854 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: more game behind with all those other teams that are 855 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: right there in the middle of a wild card spot, 856 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 1: there are three and four. Again, it's not ideal with 857 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 1: tough opponents coming up. But that's why, that's why I 858 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: said San Francisco was a must win because with this 859 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 1: stretch coming up, you couldn't have afforded to be under 860 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: five hundred going into this. But now you lose this game, No, 861 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 1: it's not great, but you can steal one from Atlanta 862 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 1: or Kansas City and then you're probably four and five 863 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 1: going into that Thanksgiving Washington Philly stretch. Then you start 864 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 1: having to have to do work in the division. Obviously, 865 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 1: you're helping yourself by winning this game. Obviously, let's win 866 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,240 Speaker 1: to do what make the playoffs or to win the division, 867 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:00,319 Speaker 1: because if you want to if you want to win 868 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: the division, you better win. That's kind of yeah, that's true, Okay, 869 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 1: if you want to win, if you want to win 870 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: the division, then this is probably a must win. But 871 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: I think I'm already conceding the division to the Eagles, 872 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 1: like I'm obviously they're not going to but me, it 873 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 1: seems unlikely that they can dig out of that. I 874 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 1: need to I need to play them first before I 875 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:19,920 Speaker 1: would say. But that's and I wrote about that in 876 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: my column too. It's not gonna matter. They don't play 877 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 1: till Week eleven. The Eagles are unless they just completely 878 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 1: gag and lose to San Francisco at home, they're about 879 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 1: to be seven and one. They're probably gonna be no 880 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,840 Speaker 1: worse than like what not eight and one, eight and 881 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 1: two when they play the Cowboys, It's it's not gonna 882 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,840 Speaker 1: matter because they waited till after the halfway point of 883 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,799 Speaker 1: the season to have those two teams play a game. 884 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,720 Speaker 1: So even if you sweep the Eagles, it's they're gonna 885 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 1: have enough of a lead on you that it might 886 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 1: not matter. I guess the way I'm looking at it is, 887 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 1: I think right now everybody I believe that the Rams 888 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,399 Speaker 1: will continue to do what they're doing. They're gonna drop 889 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 1: some games, they'll continue to do what they're doing. I 890 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: think they end up probably the winning that division, or 891 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 1: to be very close between them, and see I think 892 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 1: Seattle will be not far behind them, if behind them. 893 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 1: So I think both those teams are probably gonna make 894 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,279 Speaker 1: the playoffs. So really, the Cowboys are battling with all 895 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,000 Speaker 1: those other teams sure for one spot. That's why I 896 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 1: say really, And it's not just just within a division, 897 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 1: it's NFC games that they play are a premium right now. 898 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 1: You can only afford to drop probably three more games 899 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 1: if you're gonna make the playoffs. Maybe four. I think nine. 900 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 1: I think nine is probably the number you need to 901 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,439 Speaker 1: hit to get a wild card. I think I think 902 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 1: ten's probably going to be the number this year. But 903 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: but either way, if you are if you do believe 904 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: as ten, I think that the only games you really 905 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 1: can't afford to drop at this point are AFC games 906 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,440 Speaker 1: if you're battling for wildcard spots, Because all those other 907 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 1: teams you're playing, you're gonna be battling with them for 908 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:43,879 Speaker 1: that wild card spot, and head to head, it's gonna 909 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 1: make a difference. I hear you, But I hear you, 910 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 1: but I don't agree with you. It's okay, this all 911 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 1: you would prefer to win every game in the NFL. 912 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: There's so few of them you will need to win them. 913 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,360 Speaker 1: But I don't This isn't a must win like this. 914 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 1: I don't think this drastically changes the outlooks for their season. 915 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:06,839 Speaker 1: If they don't win it, that marks me, all right, 916 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,040 Speaker 1: got it? Yes, sir, thank you, that was a great game. 917 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:10,839 Speaker 1: We're gonna take our final break. We'll come back.

We don't 979 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 1: need to get into the visual imagery here, but I 980 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:26,319 Speaker 1: really like Tommy John underwear. There's like five different thoughts 981 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 1: I just went through my head. Y bet you won't bet. 982 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 1: I bet four of them are inappropriate. Yeah, I bet 983 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 1: five and a half were inappropriate. All right, let's let's 984 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 1: jump into some questions. You guys call us A number 985 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,879 Speaker 1: is two one four eight seven two twenty one zero two, 986 00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:47,360 Speaker 1: or you can also hit us on Twitter at Cowboys 987 00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 1: Break and we'll take questions that way as well. Let's 988 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:54,400 Speaker 1: take a question from Twitter. What's more important containing the 989 00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:59,520 Speaker 1: Running Game or containing Vernon Davis and Jordan read Running 990 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:04,040 Speaker 1: Game always more important. Yeah, running, I mean no, it 991 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 1: is because Kirk Cousins can bomb away on you and 992 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:09,880 Speaker 1: you can still win this game. They did it twice 993 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,319 Speaker 1: last year. But if you're just if you can't stop 994 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,239 Speaker 1: the run, you can't do anything. You can't get your 995 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,479 Speaker 1: offense off the field, you can't give your defensive break. 996 00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 1: You're not making them really work that hard for their 997 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 1: yardage or points. I mean, it always starts with their 998 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:26,080 Speaker 1: own you know, Trevor Simeon, and you know that you 999 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 1: think about that game, you think about golf. You know 1000 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: that they just couldn't stop the run. And I know 1001 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:34,760 Speaker 1: that Washington's going to kind of look at it pass first, 1002 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 1: but they will still run the football. And if they 1003 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 1: haven't some success there, I mean, then you know that 1004 00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 1: they're not going to stop the pass. Yeah, but I 1005 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:44,239 Speaker 1: guess I guess the way I look at it is 1006 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,759 Speaker 1: question was against the tight ends versus the back, not 1007 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 1: Kurt Cousins not passing game versus you know. Yeah, and 1008 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:53,120 Speaker 1: I agree with you guys on a from a from 1009 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 1: just an overall standpoint, any game, you gotta stop the 1010 00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 1: run first. I guess where I'm a little bit shaken 1011 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 1: on this question, is I don't think the Redskins are 1012 00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 1: a good running team. I think they pose way more 1013 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,399 Speaker 1: of a threat, all tight ends catching the passes all 1014 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 1: the more reason why it's important, Like they shouldn't be 1015 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 1: able to run the ball on you if if they 1016 00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:15,040 Speaker 1: can't get that, I understand what I'm saying, though what 1017 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 1: I'm saying is I guess I'm putting it in context stuff. 1018 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:20,239 Speaker 1: The thing that I think can hurt the Cowboys more 1019 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:21,799 Speaker 1: in this game. I don't think the running game can 1020 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 1: hurt them because I don't think they run the ball 1021 00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 1: very well and I don't think they stay committed to 1022 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:27,360 Speaker 1: the run. I think what what can hurt them in 1023 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:30,440 Speaker 1: this game more so is those tight ends because of 1024 00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:35,320 Speaker 1: the way they use Vernon David Wad watch the Packers game. Yeah, didn't. 1025 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:37,920 Speaker 1: What you just said sounds straight out of the Packers, 1026 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 1: Like they don't they're not committed to the running game 1027 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 1: and they don't do it very well. And then some 1028 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,479 Speaker 1: guy nobody's ever heard of ran for a buck thirty 1029 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:44,759 Speaker 1: on them. Yea. And at the end of the day, 1030 00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:46,440 Speaker 1: the reason why they lost was not because of the 1031 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,839 Speaker 1: running game. It was because Aaron Rodgers certainly didn't help. 1032 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 1: I'm Aaron Rodgers obviously them apart. Aaron Rodgers obviously made 1033 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 1: the difference in crunch time. But like they did everything 1034 00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 1: they wanted to do. They set up over the fact 1035 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 1: they run. They would have stopped the run, they would 1036 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 1: have won the game. Yeah, how's that well, because they 1037 00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:05,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't have gone come down to that at the end. 1038 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 1: It wouldn't have come down to I mean, a lot 1039 00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:09,719 Speaker 1: of those drives that Aaron Rodgers had were because of 1040 00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,239 Speaker 1: the running game. I think the Cowboys would have won 1041 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,319 Speaker 1: the game. The Cowboys absolutely would have won that game 1042 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 1: if they had shut down the run, or at the 1043 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,360 Speaker 1: very least they would have made Aaron Rodgers throw for 1044 00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:21,160 Speaker 1: five hundred him, which he could have done exactly, but 1045 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 1: he was saying that that couldn't happen. But he didn't 1046 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:27,359 Speaker 1: have to. He didn't have to. I'm just saying, you know, look, 1047 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 1: look at the Giants game first of the year, look 1048 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:32,160 Speaker 1: at the Cardinals game, look at the Packers game. Those 1049 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 1: three teams are similar, and that they don't have much 1050 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 1: of a running game. They did in those first two games. 1051 00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:39,960 Speaker 1: They didn't have any running game. And even though the 1052 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,560 Speaker 1: Cardinals put up some yards with Lary Fitzgerald. At the 1053 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:46,720 Speaker 1: end of the day, they weren't balanced enough. Packers were balanced. 1054 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 1: And that's what's all we're saying is is that if 1055 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,719 Speaker 1: the Redskins get balanced, then they could really be in 1056 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 1: trouble because because what they're doing is I mean, they're 1057 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: three and three doing it their way. They would like 1058 00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,160 Speaker 1: to run the ball if they could this offensive line, 1059 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:01,839 Speaker 1: though I don't think I don't think it's gonna happen 1060 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 1: this week, it would be all the worse for the 1061 00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:06,200 Speaker 1: Cowboys if it does. I mean they should not be 1062 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,680 Speaker 1: able to that should not be that big of anitiation. 1063 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:13,520 Speaker 1: Only though the Chargers two thousand and twelve, maybe thirteen, 1064 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,799 Speaker 1: I mean, they had no offensive line going into that game, 1065 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:20,200 Speaker 1: and I think they patched it together and Philip Rivers 1066 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 1: went for like four hundred. That game sucked. The Cowboys 1067 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,239 Speaker 1: went into the break with the twenty one ten lead 1068 00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:29,320 Speaker 1: because Shaun Lee picked six Philip Rivers and like it was, 1069 00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,879 Speaker 1: it was twenty thirteen. The Cowboys went into the break 1070 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 1: with about four wins and gotten none of them. Like 1071 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 1: they went I mean, they had it their twenty three 1072 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 1: point lead on Green Bay, they lost. They had an 1073 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 1: eleven point lead on Philip Rivers. They lost. Well, this 1074 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:44,400 Speaker 1: was the first game, this last game where they actually 1075 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:46,120 Speaker 1: did something in the third quarters. You know, they were 1076 00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:49,399 Speaker 1: being outscored thirty seven to seven in the third quarter 1077 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 1: before last week's game. Like, what's what's happening at half? 1078 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember back playing happen at these games? Yes, 1079 00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 1: four or something? What's maybe no adjustments? It's no adjustment 1080 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 1: it's needed except for in halftime. That's where you needed. 1081 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 1: Maybe they shouldn't, but maybe they shouldn't be wearing Tommy 1082 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,440 Speaker 1: John's on game day because you want to make adjustments 1083 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:12,400 Speaker 1: on game day, you know what I mean. Let's go 1084 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:14,239 Speaker 1: to the fallow. We got a call from Robin Las Vegas. 1085 00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:19,120 Speaker 1: Rob what hey, everybody? They speaking to Tommy John? The 1086 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:22,400 Speaker 1: only person that should be doing that read ism. I 1087 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 1: agree he does it, throws a little bit of Spanish 1088 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:28,080 Speaker 1: and it's better flying off the shelf. I think better. 1089 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 1: I think you're right. She should be the spokesperson. Get 1090 00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 1: into the game. Uh, it's a must win. I know 1091 00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:39,560 Speaker 1: mathematically it isn't. But you Redskins uh injured, We're not. 1092 00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:42,879 Speaker 1: We're coming off a big win. Zeke looks like Zeke 1093 00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 1: we're feeling good. If you're going to be a playoff team, 1094 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:50,840 Speaker 1: you gotta get on a run somewhere, and why not 1095 00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 1: start now? And in the vision, I think the key 1096 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:57,840 Speaker 1: of the game is first out. When this team holds 1097 00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:00,560 Speaker 1: them the running game to three ds between and a 1098 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:02,879 Speaker 1: half yards on first time to pay, so we will 1099 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: give it up close to five. And we were only 1100 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:08,480 Speaker 1: running for about two and a half yards and now 1101 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:12,160 Speaker 1: we're running more closer to five. That's the that's the key, 1102 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,239 Speaker 1: especially if you think this is going to be a 1103 00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:18,640 Speaker 1: high scoring game. Just the time of possession. We may 1104 00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:22,800 Speaker 1: need that extra you know, possession in the game. And 1105 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 1: the teams that we lost to, you know, Denver, Random Ball, 1106 00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 1: Green Bay. I agree that running back beat us up 1107 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 1: and even on that last drive that that run that 1108 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:38,239 Speaker 1: he pulled off I think was the deciding factor. We 1109 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:42,080 Speaker 1: have shownly if we could just hold them, you know, 1110 00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,680 Speaker 1: three yards are first out on the run. This team 1111 00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 1: does not do multiple things well. I don't know if 1112 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:50,600 Speaker 1: it's a linebackers, the safeties. What I mean is when 1113 00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:54,560 Speaker 1: they know it's a path we could get pressure, I 1114 00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:56,800 Speaker 1: think they do pretty good. But when it's that second 1115 00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:59,759 Speaker 1: and five and they're not sure what they're gonna do. 1116 00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:03,359 Speaker 1: We suffer, so I think first time it's the key 1117 00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 1: on both sides. I think we win by ten. I 1118 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:07,440 Speaker 1: don't want to give the score because I'm horrible out 1119 00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:09,480 Speaker 1: of I think we win by ten. All right, thanks 1120 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:13,520 Speaker 1: for the call. That would be dope. I mean, I 1121 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,520 Speaker 1: know they just won a game by thirty points, but 1122 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:18,279 Speaker 1: I don't trust these guys to win a division game 1123 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:22,520 Speaker 1: by ten points on the road. These division games are 1124 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,320 Speaker 1: too hard, like it's it's I'm I'm surprised the Cowboys 1125 00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:27,120 Speaker 1: won by as much as they did against the Giants. 1126 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 1: It's just they're hard and teams know you. It's just 1127 00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen very often, especially in this division. I'm sure, 1128 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:35,239 Speaker 1: yeah they I mean they beat the Giants pretty good 1129 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 1: in Week one, but even I mean last you know, 1130 00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:39,959 Speaker 1: both of the Redskins games came right down to the wire. 1131 00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:45,880 Speaker 1: The Eagles Eagles. Here was overtime, was it not? Yeah? No, 1132 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 1: not happening. All right. Let's let's ahead and get into 1133 00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,800 Speaker 1: our predictions for the game. We'll start with you Amber, 1134 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 1: give me a a prediction for this upcoming game, Cowboys 1135 00:55:55,640 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 1: versus Redskins. Um exavior would shows up in this game 1136 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:06,880 Speaker 1: and is able to create some turnovers for the Cowboys 1137 00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:15,280 Speaker 1: that will definitely help them. Cowboys win. Thirty four twenty seven, 1138 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:20,439 Speaker 1: twenty seven, something like that. Yeah, thirty four twenty seven. 1139 00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say the Cowboys. I want to pick the 1140 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:29,880 Speaker 1: Redskins to win this game, but I just can't with 1141 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:34,120 Speaker 1: the way that their offensive line is. I think the 1142 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:37,719 Speaker 1: Cowboys are in better shape right now, coming off that 1143 00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:40,080 Speaker 1: game like they did where they didn't have to play 1144 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:44,319 Speaker 1: as much there off the bye week against the short 1145 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 1: team of the short week that's very banged up. So 1146 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:48,799 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say the Cowboys will win. It'll be close. 1147 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:50,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say twenty three to twenty in overtime. My 1148 00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:55,440 Speaker 1: crazy prediction is that Nugent will miss a couple of 1149 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:57,960 Speaker 1: field goals, but he'll make the game winner in overtime. 1150 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:01,759 Speaker 1: Twenty three twenty three, twenty all right, I was gonna 1151 00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,759 Speaker 1: say something similar to that. I think you're gonna miss 1152 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:08,759 Speaker 1: Dan Bailey in this game, but Nugent will still find 1153 00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:10,480 Speaker 1: a way to get the job done. I don't know 1154 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:12,520 Speaker 1: if he has a game winner. I'm thinking I think 1155 00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:15,160 Speaker 1: the scorer up there was twenty seven twenty three last year. 1156 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 1: I'm going say so take a little bit off that 1157 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 1: because of the rain. I think the Cowboys win twenty 1158 00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 1: four twenty. I think nugent, But I think Nugent scores 1159 00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 1: their last points of the game fourth quarter defense holds on. Partially, 1160 00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:32,360 Speaker 1: I see Kirk Cousins having the ball with a chance 1161 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 1: to win this game and DeMarcus Lawrence gets a sack 1162 00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:38,160 Speaker 1: to finish this thing off. But I do it's gonna 1163 00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 1: be dramatic. I actually have the exact same scores you 1164 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:43,480 Speaker 1: do twenty four twenty. I think it's great minds think alike. Yeah, no, 1165 00:57:43,760 --> 00:57:45,880 Speaker 1: I think that it's I agree with you. I think 1166 00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:48,440 Speaker 1: this is gonna be less going than I then you 1167 00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:51,160 Speaker 1: would normally see in this kind of matchup with two 1168 00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:54,480 Speaker 1: high powered offenses. And I do think there'll be some 1169 00:57:54,640 --> 00:57:57,520 Speaker 1: challenges on both sides of it. Both sides with regards 1170 00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 1: to kicking field goals. I think both teams will miss 1171 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 1: a field goal at east one or extra point. So 1172 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:04,640 Speaker 1: I think it will make it kind of interesting here 1173 00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,320 Speaker 1: because there will be some challenges that both teams are 1174 00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:10,480 Speaker 1: having to deal with with the rain and with backup kickers. 1175 00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 1: But I think the final score twenty four twenty. I 1176 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 1: think the Cowboys can get to win. I think the 1177 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:17,160 Speaker 1: Cowboys are the better team. So we'll see, we'll see. 1178 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:18,520 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a close one. I do think of 1179 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:21,080 Speaker 1: a very close game all the way throughout. All right, guys, 1180 00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:23,600 Speaker 1: appreciate you Jonas. We'll be back on Monday.
