Today we're 16 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: gonna do the whole thing. So we'll get a scouting 17 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: report here on both sides of the ball for the 18 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: Giants matchup against the Cowboys. Maybe some things that are 19 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 1: a little different than when we saw this team the 20 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: last time. Let's start first, though, Jerry had a few 21 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: comments this morning. I wanted to get some opinions on. 22 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: He did say that Micah and Mike McCarthy followed it 23 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: up as well, saying that Micah Parsons seems to be fine. 24 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: They expect him to play this week. What are we 25 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: here as far as other injuries of Note and DeMarcus 26 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: Lawrence and this whole rash of guys will seem to 27 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: be sick ill with I would assume flu or flu 28 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: like I think that's their biggest problem. I don't think 29 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: there anything else is really pressing them hard right now 30 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 1: on it. I mean, it's a short week. It's gonna 31 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: be tough. McCarthy talked about that that's the thing you 32 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: have to manage, is the injuries. The Giants are kind 33 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: of in the same boat with their offensive line when 34 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: we get to that. But this this stuff with the 35 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: flu or whatever's going around in the building right now, 36 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: is that that's the thing I think you have to 37 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: worry about. You know, guys playing through it. Obviously last 38 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: you know week against Minnesota they had guys that were 39 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: playing through. Because then you turn around and looked at 40 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: the injury report the next day and guys like Fowler 41 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: and others were on that thing, so obviously they were 42 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: playing that game sick, and so yeah, it's just to manage. 43 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: It's about managing to keep the guys away who are sick, 44 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: and then you know, go with the guys that you 45 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: have right now and do the best you can. Well 46 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: after the game, because Kelvin Joseph he left the game. 47 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 1: He never returned, did he No, he left, I don't 48 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: think so. Yeah, he got out of the game and 49 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: they announced he was an illness. And I remember with 50 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: the media after the game, while we waited for Mike 51 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: McCarthy to show up and do the press conference, we're 52 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: kind of just talking about it. Oh man, what's up 53 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: with Kelvin Josel. You need to put him in the 54 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: back of the plane and put a mask on, keep 55 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 1: him away, you know. And then we get backing out 56 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: we see the injury report that it's like, oh shit, 57 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: oh my god, I'm sorry, I don't mean to see 58 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: what I mean. Shoot, yeah, no, it's just my accent, 59 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: you know, it's not really what I said is just 60 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: the accent. But um, yeah, that's that's concerning. But because 61 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: to think back that he didn't even return. It makes 62 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: you think, Okay, well, how how serious is this? Is 63 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: this something that they can because sometimes we've seen it. 64 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: They just shoot something up. We gave them some type 65 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: of or whatever, and then they just get back out there. 66 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: But definitely something to keep an eye on. I saw that. 67 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: I guess Mike McCarthy said, some guys are gonna be 68 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: wearing masks around the building. I assume guys that are 69 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: healthy are They're probably like, hey, let's just try to 70 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: see if we can be a little safer if you're 71 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: going to be in rooms with other guys that may 72 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: have been sick, or if you just don't know if 73 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: they're sick, and maybe it's the beginning of it. The 74 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: one thing that we learned through the pandemic is you 75 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: could play football when there's problems with illness. You know, 76 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: and I don't mean that in a way of I 77 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: mean that that you can have meetings, you can tap 78 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: guys in, you can and you know, it's not that 79 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: you're putting guys out there that had COVID, but you're 80 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: you've learned to adapt and have meetings and have players 81 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: be included in some of the most important things. The 82 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: meeting time because they're really not practicing. This is just 83 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: like walk through stuff. It's hey, this is going to 84 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: be the game plan this week. Maybe a little bit 85 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: of a scale down offense. You know, it's a common opponent. 86 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: You you know, it's a lot different team looking than 87 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: what you saw early in the year. I think they've 88 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: approved along the way, so you know, but it's the 89 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: case for both teams right now. It really really is 90 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: that you just you're trying to get enough meeting time, 91 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: you're trying to get the practice time, and you're trying 92 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: to formulate a game plan that gives you the best 93 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: chance to have some success to win the game. So 94 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: this is not easy, especially now. But like I say, 95 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: COVID in the way that that kind of taught us 96 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: with the zooms and things like that, you can kind 97 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: of get people still involved with if they don't aren't 98 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: physically here. You can literally have guys who might be 99 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: at home right now not feeling well still be able 100 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: to tend to meet exa that matters exactly. Another thing 101 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: that Jerry saith I thought was interesting, We've had this 102 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: debate throughout the year about what happens when Tyron Smith returns. 103 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: He says this morning, Tyler Smith will move to guard. 104 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: Tyrn Smith will be at tackle whenever he's available. Guys 105 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 1: think that's the right decision. Yep, absolutely, especially if it's easily. 106 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: You know, he said easily, he will will move to 107 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: left guard. The question and then then just becomes is 108 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: is he better than McGovern Yeah? Yeah, So if he's not, 109 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: then put McGovern in. I mean that's and if and 110 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: if Tyler Smith, If Tyron Smith is not better than 111 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: what you've had from Tyler Tyler Smith, then I mean 112 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: change I go back. I think so. But I mean, 113 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: this guy's done it. I mean, this guy's been doing 114 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: it since Tyler Smith was in sixth grade. So I 115 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: mean if he can't do it anymore, he can't do it. 116 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: But I mean he's out there working and busting his 117 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: butt to get back and get into this shape when 118 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people thought there's no way this was 119 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: going to happen, and always he's gonna play again. So 120 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: if he comes back, he plays, Yeah, he deserves that. 121 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: He I think he will be better than I mean, 122 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: Tyler Smith has been a good rookie. I don't think 123 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: Tyler Smith has been great. I think Tyler Smith has 124 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: been really really good for a rookie out of Tulsa 125 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: who was a projection and a guy that didn't play 126 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: at left tackle. That's what's been amazing. But if you 127 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: just look at it and forget all the other stuff, 128 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: I think he's been he's been good. I don't think 129 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: he's been great. Let's see if Tyler I let's see 130 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: if Tyrn Smith can be great. I don't agree with 131 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: any of them, I mean with some of that, just 132 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: because I don't think it's such an easy, an easy 133 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: quick decision to say, okay, you plug Tyren Smith right 134 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: back in. Yes, he's like a beast and we know 135 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: what he can do. But if he go back to 136 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: even before he got injured, the way he was playing, 137 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: it wasn't his old self. You could still see him 138 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: make some mistakes that are very unlike him. And if 139 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: you're looking at the future and what's going to happen here, 140 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: I would assume this is for him, like this is 141 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: maybe his last year here. That's me just assuming. So 142 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: why mess something up that that's kind of working for 143 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: you right now? And I feel that the old line 144 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: just week after week, even Tyler Smith and Connor McGovern, 145 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,679 Speaker 1: they keep getting better and it's just it's clicking even 146 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: more every time. So to think that you take that 147 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: out and put and that's difficult because you know, but 148 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: the thing is that you don't know what level he's 149 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: gonna come back, and we've seen him done it before 150 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: where he's not even playing, practicing or anything, and he 151 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: still plays amazing. But I just right now, this is 152 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: the one year that I don't think it's just a 153 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: quick simple decision to say, yes, put him back in 154 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: and sit Tyler Smith'll move Tyler Smith and take Connor 155 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: McGovern out because McGovern he's impressed me. I didn't expect 156 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: him to be doing as well as he's doing, and 157 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: he's doing such a good job, So I don't think 158 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: I would like to kind of mess that chemistry. That's 159 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: right now, the question might be did did Connor McGovern 160 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: beat out Tyler Smith at left guard? That's the question 161 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: you got to kind of ask yourself right now, because 162 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: the way it looked like up until it looked like that, 163 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: it was kind of a neck and neck situation. But 164 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: you know, it also appeared that until Tyron Smith got hurt, 165 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: that was gonna be Connor McGovern's job. So I me personally, 166 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: I'm putting I'm putting Tyron Smith at left tackle, and 167 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put Tyler Smith at guard. He's a young guy, 168 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: he's a rookie. He worked there the whole training camp. 169 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: You know, whether you liked him or not playing the 170 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: training camp, you know, that's a whole another story. I 171 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: just feel like though that this team if to you know, 172 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: you say, I don't want to move. I don't want 173 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: to adjust. They've adjusted all year. They brought in Jason Peters, 174 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: He's played, They've moved guys around. You know, in this 175 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: last game Matt Farniac against the Giants, he was the 176 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: starter at left guard. I mean they've used a lot 177 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: of different combinations. There's teams. I ask Stephen Jones this question. 178 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: I want to fight through the fan. I said, you know, 179 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: do you just look for continuity and you just want 180 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: to play the bit you know, the five guys you 181 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: got And he's like, you can't say that anymore because guys, 182 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 1: you know, you might want that. But he goes, we're 183 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: in an era now where guys are having to plug 184 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: in and play and stuff like that. And they've proven 185 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 1: to me that every move that they've made with the 186 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: offensive line has worked, you know, and I'm going to 187 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: trust them that putting Tyrann Smith back in there's going 188 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: to make this offensive line better. And Tyler Smith playing 189 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: left guard is going to make that left side even better. 190 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: So that's that's how I'm looking at it myself. Yeah, 191 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: I think I would prefer the continuity and a set, 192 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: specially in a situation where now we're talking about moving 193 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: two positions that you don't necessarily have to. Here's the 194 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: one caveat to that. If you think that having Tyran 195 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: Smith and Tyler Smith by each other on the left 196 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: side makes you stronger in the run game, then maybe 197 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: it's worth it. Even if you're passing game section stays 198 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: about the same. If you are a more stout, power 199 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: running team on the left side because of this move, 200 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: that's worth it. And there's another element to that too, 201 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: because you get all three of them, because right, nobody 202 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: can do what McGovern does a fullback. Yeah, like McGovern does. 203 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,079 Speaker 1: Farniak he's hurt now, but he doesn't do it the same. 204 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: It's not the same. He does a good job with that. 205 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: And so and I think you know, to what you said, 206 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: I think you're still kind of grading on a curve 207 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: on that Tyrn wasn't what he was and I get that, 208 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,559 Speaker 1: but he had a lot of grow, a lot of 209 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: room to grow, and I mean a lot of room 210 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: to go down and still be excellent. So yeah, he's 211 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: not what he is, you know, what he has been, 212 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 1: But I still think he will be better than Tyler Smith. 213 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 1: And if he's not, then they've already shown that they'll 214 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: they'll sit a Hall of Famer for him. I mean, 215 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: Jason Peters hasn't done anything. Yeah, if Peters was better, 216 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 1: he'd play, and he hasn't proven to be better. And 217 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: if Tyron Smith isn't better than same thing. I mean, 218 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: Tyler Rens might be a yo yo there like left guard, 219 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: left tackle or whatever. But I mean, I just think 220 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: Tyler Tyron Smith. I think he's going to be healthy 221 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: with the neck and the back and shoulder hill but 222 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: all that stuff, I think it'll be healthy and we'll see, 223 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: We'll see how it goes. It could be good. It 224 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: could be a situation too where you know, Tyron Smith 225 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: has played in games and got hurt too, you know, 226 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: I mean he's you know, that's and I hate to 227 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: say that, but it's reality. It's why you drafted Tyler Smith. 228 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: And they never told you he was a left tackle 229 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 1: or a left guard. They said he's a left side player. 230 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: They really didn't know, and they did everything they said. 231 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: You know, everybody's saying, well, this is the future replacement 232 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: for Tyron Smith, and you say future replacement for Tyron 233 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: Smith because he gets hurt every year. You know, that's 234 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: the thing. He got hurt again, you know, I mean, 235 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: he's missed the majority of the season and you know, 236 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: to me, I like, if this is the last one, 237 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: let's go one more time. Let's just go this month 238 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: of December into the playoffs, see what happens, and then 239 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: make your decision from there. But you know, his reliability 240 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: is the reason why you got Tyler Smith here, because 241 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: there's no reliability there. And you know, I'm sitting there saying, 242 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: say play and play and playing. But I'm also in 243 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: the back of my mind thinking, Okay, well he's gonna 244 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: be blocking and he's gonna somebody's gonna roll into the 245 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: back of his ankle, and you know, and then he'll 246 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: be gone for the rest of the season. Kind of 247 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: a thing. And you need to find I think when 248 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: that happens to find the perfect game, Like, look what 249 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 1: opponent you're playing and see, okay, this is a game 250 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: where we can definitely just to see how Houston, Houston's 251 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: the game, Houston's game. And I'm just gonna give you 252 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: a timeline just talking to folks in the organization. They're 253 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: gonna start the clock after the Indianapolis Colts game. That's 254 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: when it's gonna start. So you're gonna have this game, 255 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: that little mini bye, you know, the little weekend by, 256 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: and then you're gonna play You're gonna play the Colts 257 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: and then I think that's I think after that, that's 258 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 1: when you're gonna start the clock on Tyrant Smith. I 259 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,959 Speaker 1: think that's what they're they're looking at right now, to 260 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: get him back on the field where he's ready for 261 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: that potential, ready for that Texans game. I mean, look, 262 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: here's here's how I look at at the end of 263 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: the day, this guy, because of everything he's done for 264 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: this organization, how good he's been throughout his career. If 265 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,199 Speaker 1: you can tell him, hey, man, give me the best 266 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: six games you got in yeah, right, and you get 267 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 1: him in seven, whatever the number is, that can get 268 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: you as long as you're gonna be in the playoffs, 269 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: and if he can get you that, like, if you 270 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: can just get his body to get through that, you 271 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: might be able to get something really good out of 272 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: Tyren Smith, especially if he may even be thinking I'm 273 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: not talking from any level of knowledge here, but if 274 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 1: if he's even thinking, you know, maybe after this year, 275 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: I'm kind of ready to step away. He might be 276 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 1: in that mode where it's like, oh, I'm just gonna 277 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: put it all in the line. I'll give you seven 278 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,719 Speaker 1: games the best I can give you, and that might 279 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: be enough to give you some really really great play 280 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 1: at left tackle. Because that's what he's been. You said, 281 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: you said okay, you just said great, okay, because you 282 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: said good twice in that and he he hasn't been 283 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 1: good since he was a fresh at USC, you know 284 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: what I mean. And he's been excellent. Right, That's what 285 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: I'm right. And that's that's why I think that when 286 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: when he ever gave up a pressure, it would be like, WHOA, 287 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: what's going on? Okay? You sick? You know? So? Um 288 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: And he's done that more and so. But I think 289 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: he deserves the right to see if he's still if 290 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: he still has it. But you know, Tyler, and Tyler 291 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: has been good and he keeps getting better. I think 292 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: the penalties are going down with him. I mean they 293 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: were there early, but I mean they're kind of going 294 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: down here in the last few few games. The thing 295 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: about the thing you have to understand about Tyrant Smith 296 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: is that he was at one time the best player 297 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: on the team, and then Martin came along, and then 298 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: now others have come along and he's no longer the 299 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: best player. But there's a lot of teams out there 300 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: that love to have him at left tackle right now, 301 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: and this team you're about to play would love to 302 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: have him at offensive tackle. It just but you know, 303 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: that's the thing. I mean, if you can get the 304 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: best six, seven, eight, how many games this seeing goes 305 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: on through, go for it. And if he and if 306 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: it works out, great, If it doesn't, Now everybody knows, 307 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: he knows, the front office knows, you know. And I've 308 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: had people tell me that, well, you could trade him, 309 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: you could do this, you could do that, and he goes. 310 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: Guy told me, he says, listen, you try and trade 311 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: this guy. He's gonna retire. He didn't want it. He's 312 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: not interested in going on and doing something else. You know, 313 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: he's got he's gonna play and then when it's over, 314 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: it's over. Over. Here's what's not gonna happen. And this 315 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: is the luxury the Cowboys have. I mean, we saw 316 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 1: an eight and one Vikings team that lost their left 317 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: tackle in the middle of the game and then it 318 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: was over. Michael Parsons was dealing with a knee injury 319 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: and he still was going to come back because he 320 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: had to rush. There's like a turnstyle there at left 321 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: tackle that won't happen here. If Tyre Tyren Smith gets 322 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: her backup is Peters or the backup is Tyler's, they 323 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: have they have way more depth in which they're gonna 324 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: need and that's the best part of the whole thing. 325 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: All Right, we're gonna chack our first break and we 326 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: come back from the bank. We're gonna get into some 327 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: talk on the Giants versus the Cowboys.

I'm kind of hypocritical because 395 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: I'm actually under a bunch of rocks, Like, all right, 396 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: here we go, let's talk Cowboys versus Giants. What do 397 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 1: you want to know this last they've lost two of 398 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 1: the last three, um, and they're starting to suck like 399 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: I thought they were. Well seriously, because they're really not 400 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: that good. The Giants are not that good. They're not 401 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: as good as their records, good as their record, their records, 402 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: their record. You know, they figured we'll see until it's not. Yeah, 403 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 1: well that's fine. But then but then they will then 404 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: they will prove that they're not good. Right now, the 405 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: record says that they're good. If you're winning game, doesn't 406 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: matter how yeah, you're still okay. That's That's what I'm saying. 407 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: Anybody in any marathon could start branding and getting out 408 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 1: there and going, man, he's in first until they just 409 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: don't have it anymore, and then they're not in first anymore. 410 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: So it's not you are what you are, Well, I'm 411 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: in first place. You never run a race with the 412 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: Kenyan head, No, No, I have five of them and 413 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 1: they start fast and they finished that Kenyan finished like 414 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: fourteen miles ahead of me. That's the Chiefs, all right, 415 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: that's there. I'm there. I'm waiting for them to slow down. 416 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Like I am hitting the halfway point and 417 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: they're heading home and they they've stopped. I mean they've 418 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,959 Speaker 1: they've stopped. Literally we start six minutes apart and they 419 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: finished fourteen miles ahead of me. That's that's what they 420 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: That's what's no. But I'm you know what I'm saying. 421 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: I mean they this isn't you are not fun. I 422 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: don't think they're that good. And I watched them play 423 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: the Cowboys and I saw them leading the Cowboys thirteen 424 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: to six, and I'm like, how is this not twenty 425 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 1: one to three? They are way better than the Giants, 426 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: even with Cooper Rush and and then the offensive line 427 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: was banged up. They're better than them, and they eventually 428 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: showed that they were. And I think the Aliants are 429 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: kind of showing what they are right now too. But hey, 430 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: it's not like it's gonna be a tough game. You 431 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: lose the Lions at home, you should be embarrassed, and 432 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,199 Speaker 1: they probably are, and they're gonna come to the Cowboys 433 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 1: worre week exactly. Yeah, maybe at Green Bay, So that's 434 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: going for him, I guess, you know, in London, right, Yeah, 435 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 1: But I mean that's what I'm saying. It's the that's 436 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 1: the thing about this league. It's so hard from week 437 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: to week. I mean, I went back and watched some 438 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: of the things from the Giants Cowboys game when they played, 439 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: and honestly felt like the Giants had a pretty damn 440 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: good plan, you know, with how they played in that game, 441 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: and you know, and they they they're not going to 442 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: have some of the guys that were playing in that game, 443 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: especially like a Dory Jackson and stuff playing core because 444 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: he's knocking down balls and stuff like that, and so yeah, 445 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: I mean it's but they also didn't have a Litard 446 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: Williams playing in that game, you know, and Thibodeau played 447 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: in the game. Yeah, but let's saying that they you know, 448 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: we were talking about how, you know, playing run defense, 449 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: and the Giants at the time were really good. You know, 450 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 1: it's a small sample sized Week three kind of thing, 451 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: but the Giants were playing like really good run defense 452 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: and you know, Leonard Williams gets out of the game 453 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: and now the Cowboys have some success running the ball, 454 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, the problem that the Giants are 455 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: struggling to have right now is their offensive line because 456 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: they're not healthy. Evan Neil's not healthy. The backup Tyree 457 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: Phillips is not healthy either, and so they're they're gonna 458 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: have to do some shuff went around here on a 459 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 1: short week and kind of figure some things out. The 460 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: thing that's gonna make him ad watching this game this 461 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: week is damn Daniel Jones running around right. That's the 462 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: and and there were times where there were times. Hell, 463 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: they throw a screen pass. It's like third and nineteen 464 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 1: and they throw a screen pass that gains eighteen yards. 465 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: You know, it's that crap that they they That's how 466 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,959 Speaker 1: they're winning games, are staying in games, is that Daniel 467 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,919 Speaker 1: Jones is not doing anything to kill them in these games. 468 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: It used to be pocket hit in fumball. You know. 469 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: Now they've kind of played a little bit to his strengths, 470 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: the RPO stuff, the him just him just power running 471 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: the football. They get on the goal line into game 472 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: last week against the Lions and they just start pulling 473 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: everybody and and the you know, Barklay and all those 474 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: guys are just running downhill and here's Daniel Jones with 475 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: the ball running around the end. Nobody touches him. You know. 476 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: That's the kind of stuff that that you worry about 477 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: in this game, the running quarterback because his ability to 478 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: maybe convert a third down, where in times in the 479 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: past he would throw an incomplete pass or something, hey 480 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 1: get tipped at the line, or he would be really bad. 481 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: But he's not doing things to screw the game up anymore. 482 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: That's the thing. You know. When you watch the Giants play, 483 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: you're like, oh, okay, well he's he's actually pretty decent. Yeah, 484 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: to that point, all three games that they've lost this season, 485 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: they lost the turnover battle. There was only one game 486 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: where they lost the turnover battle only end up winning. 487 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: That was the first game of the season, so Tennessee, Yeah, 488 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: it's very quickly too, very clear. When he takes care 489 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 1: of the ball, they have a great chance of being successful. 490 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: When he doesn't, they don't. Let's talk about it. You 491 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: talked a little bit about the offensive line. They also 492 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 1: lost Swandale Robinson, one of the wide receivers. He's i 493 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: think third on their team in receiving yards. Talking about 494 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 1: what that means for their offense. They don't really get 495 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: much out of their passing game. But what do they 496 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: mean for their offense? They don't And you know it's 497 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: gonna now you the thing that they've they've struggled with 498 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: a little bit is really getting Kenny Galladay going. And 499 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: he and he's a lot of self inflicted stuff too. 500 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: He's a catch, run, fumble guy. You know. That's that's 501 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: where you get turnovers from him. I mean, he's he's 502 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,199 Speaker 1: had his moments where he hasn't been very good, you know, 503 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: losing Robinson. That's that. That's the quick that's the quick 504 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: part of their game. That's the ball underneath and you know, 505 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: run after catch, the quick screen, the RPO where they're 506 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 1: they fake it and now they're running the ball, you know, 507 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: running the ball to the edge and then he's standing 508 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: there and they throw it to him. You know they're 509 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna struggle with that. Earlier in the year, 510 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: it was Richie James who was kind of the guy 511 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 1: that was making all those plays, and then Robertson was 512 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 1: the guy that kind of took that over. I have 513 00:24:57,960 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: a feeling you're gonna go back to see them start 514 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: aren't to do more stuff with Richie James. This. David 515 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: still Sills is another guy that that can make plays, 516 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 1: but he's not as shifty or quick as Richie James is. 517 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: And I think that's who's going to take over Darius Slayton. 518 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: He can make some pretty damn good catches for you, 519 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: He really really can. I mean, he's a very ease of, 520 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: kind of a steady, you know, guy that wins on 521 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: the outside a little bit. But you know, he's not 522 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: going to do anything to just totally scare you with 523 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: any kind of you know, big, huge plays. It's a 524 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: lot of underneath stuff. It's a lot of stuff along 525 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,360 Speaker 1: the sidelines. I think he's a pretty tough guy when 526 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: you watch him play. So you know, it's a it's 527 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: a receiving chord that Dallas secondary should feel comfortable with. 528 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 1: But you know, again, there's that that whole deal with 529 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 1: the quarterback running around and scrambling and throwing the ball 530 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: on the on the run. That's that could be a problem. 531 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 1: Where about twenty four hours from making a pick here 532 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: because it is Tuesday, but it's still early. I mean, 533 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: I mean it's this week's coming quick. Uh My pick 534 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 1: for the game. I haven't figured it out, but I 535 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: think I just went up about ten points for the 536 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys just by listening to Brian talk about the offense. 537 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: And again, I'm not trying to to to overlook them. 538 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys are way better. And so even 539 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: though you haven't mentioned Barkley yet, I know he's He's 540 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 1: a big part of it. I just I don't know how. 541 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: I mean, what is whose dig's gonna cover like Galla Day. 542 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: I mean, like I don't think you travel anybody in 543 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: the well. If you, to me, the guy that I 544 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: would worry about would be would be Slaton. That would 545 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: be the guy that on third down if you want 546 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 1: to just say, okay, we're gonna go walk with him 547 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 1: on third down and not you know, he's the guy 548 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 1: to me that that can make plays like I say, 549 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: on the outside, intermediate and places like that. Would you 550 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: think this would be a game and I know that 551 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: he's not. This isn't Lamar Jackson, Daniel Jones, But because 552 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 1: of the receivers are not gonna probably hurt the Cowboys 553 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: that much. Would you even spy Barkley or spy Daniel 554 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 1: Jones I would make I don't know about the spy 555 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: aspect of it. I think pressure, pressure is going to 556 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: be more important on on Daniel Jones than spying him. 557 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,359 Speaker 1: And I mean, I do think that the Giants are 558 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 1: going to be committed to trying to run the football, 559 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: especially if their offensive line is all banged up the 560 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 1: way it is, and they and they don't have all 561 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: the starters. Because you watched in that game, the games 562 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 1: that they played, and I watched you know, four of them, 563 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: and every time that that there was pressure, Jones was 564 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: able to escape it. He'll throw it away. The thing 565 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 1: about it, it's not the spying aspect that causes him 566 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: the problem or somebody being right there. It's the just 567 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 1: getting somebody to him. You know. They they really and 568 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: you know, Tank had a great game against these guys 569 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 1: because he figured out how to play Evan Neil. Evan 570 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 1: Neil the rookie, you know, and we'll see if Evan 571 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 1: Neil plays this week. But I Tank figured him out 572 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: and it made it made Daniel Jones a little skittish 573 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,640 Speaker 1: in the pocket. So I kind of feel like, more 574 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: than buying, it's the pressure. And how can you want 575 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: to watch the Vikings game if you're the Giants and 576 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,719 Speaker 1: go well, damn. I mean, you know, we backup linemen 577 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,360 Speaker 1: are getting just destroyed by twist stunts and things like that. 578 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,119 Speaker 1: That's why I feel like that this is going to 579 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: be a se Quon Barkley Matt Breed. Matt Breed of 580 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: the number thirty one, he's like their jet sweep guy. 581 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: A matter of fact, they ran a jet sweep against 582 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: the Cowboys for a first down, uh you know in 583 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: week three on that as well, So you know they're 584 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 1: gonna I think they're gonna try and run the ball 585 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 1: because if they know, if they dropped back a lot 586 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: in this game, they're gonna meet the same faith that 587 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: the Vikings did last week. Yeah, gham, no, okay, Actually 588 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: I was thinking trying to look up um kind of 589 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 1: the data, no data, the rerecord of like Cowboys versus Giants, 590 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: and because in general, I feel like the Cowboys always 591 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: beat them for the most part, or at least in 592 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: recent years. From what I can Dack's done very well 593 00:28:55,320 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: against yeahs, Dack's done a great job a plane that 594 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: just the NFC East in general, he hasn't lost since 595 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: his rookie year. Yeah, he lost. They lost twice to 596 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: the Giants. Rookie year. The three losses they had, two 597 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: of them were to the Giants, but but he hasn't 598 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: lost to the Giants since then, and they they've only 599 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: lost once as a team, and that was twenty twenty 600 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: into the season. Andy Dalton was playing after the game, 601 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: where was it a player that you were talking about? You? 602 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: I know, you were telling a story of like, oh, 603 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: you told somebody that the Giants lost, and they're like, 604 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: Zach Martins. Yeah, I walked out, was Zack Martin, and uh, 605 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 1: we we were. He was just talking about how it's 606 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: not a twenty four hour rule anymore after a game 607 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 1: like this is twenty four minutes, Like cool, get on 608 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: the plane. But there's all Giants, Giants, giants, and he said, 609 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: you know, I don't even know did they win. I 610 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: was like, they played. They lost to the Lions, and 611 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: he was like he was kind of surprised, and he 612 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: was like, oh, in Detroit, you know, that's tough place 613 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: to play, as I knows New York and he was 614 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 1: like oh, and he even said, well they're gonna you know, 615 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: they'll be they'll be ready to go. They'll be ready. 616 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 1: And that's and then as I walked out I saw 617 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: this huge board for the Vikings next game against the Patriots, 618 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 1: and I was thinking, you know, the Patriots are going 619 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: to be in for something, because I guarantee this Viking 620 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,959 Speaker 1: team's not gonna play like that angry. Yeah. Now, you know, 621 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: Belichick's a decent coach, so I mean he might if 622 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: I'm ready to go. But I mean, but yeah, you 623 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 1: do wonder about mindset sometimes because sometimes it's like, oh, 624 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: we're gonna be ready. And that's why I credit the 625 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys for that. They they were embarrassed by the way 626 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: they finished that game against Green Bay and they did 627 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: something about it. Some teams we've seen games were a 628 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: game like that tanks your team for the rest of 629 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: the year, and so it's all about how you respond. 630 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: And we say it all the time. Games are won 631 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: in loss on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday of the week, like 632 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: what you do in preparation. That's what happened. Everyone's gonna 633 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: play hard on Sunday, usually at number thirty this Thursday, 634 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: because I mean, yeah, look at the division. You're playing 635 00:30:55,560 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: a huge game this Thursday. So both teams and I'm 636 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: keeping my eye on it because the thing is when 637 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: you when you talk about the illness that's going around, 638 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: whatever that is, it's all on defense basically as of 639 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: right now. So that's something to definitely. I mean, who 640 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: who else is gonna get sick in a couple of days, 641 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: You don't know. And then another big question. And I 642 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: know Micah went back into the game, but I saw 643 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: the player. I know some people saw it on TV 644 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 1: as well. That looks like you hurt. So I don't 645 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: even know how he got back game. Maybe the adrenaline, 646 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: the competitor in him, No, the fact that he wants 647 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: to get fifteen sixteen sacks this year. Yeah, so they 648 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: get beat up. They get beat up playing the run. 649 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: You do you get beat up playing the run, and 650 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you know a team you've made 651 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: him now just completely one dimensional and running the football 652 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: and you know, are passing the football that plays right 653 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: into the Cowboys strength. There would be guys you would 654 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: have to again, you would have to take guys helmets 655 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 1: away when you get to that point where they know 656 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: that somebody's compromised on offense and the line and the 657 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: receivers aren't getting open and the quarter back is scared 658 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: to death. You know, you those defenders are like it's 659 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: like sharks the blood. You know, they sense that, you know, 660 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: it's like, ah, we got one here, and uh and yeah, 661 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: Mike is that way. He's like, I don't Hey, I've 662 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: been getting chopped, cut, double teamed last three weeks. Wait, 663 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna let me rush the passer full time? Wait, 664 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 1: give me my helmet. I'm going back out there because 665 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 1: he probably got pissed off last night when yeah, Botha 666 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: got ten and a half sacks, you know, and Matt 667 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: Judon or to say his name for Judon from the 668 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: Patriot's good too. He's about to go up against number 669 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 1: sixty four for the Vikings this week too, so but yeah, 670 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 1: I mean, but that's who he's competing against. He wants 671 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 1: to lead the league in sacks and so and definitely 672 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: lead the team, but wants to lead the league. And 673 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: and I think that that is a fine line of 674 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,959 Speaker 1: I want this guy to play, play and be a warrior. 675 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: But at the same time, you gotta be smart. Someone's 676 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: gotten someone above him's got to take his helmet and say, man, no, 677 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 1: we you you play in four days and we're winning 678 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,959 Speaker 1: by thirty four points or whatever the score was at 679 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: the time. You have to sit. Sorry, I know you 680 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 1: don't like it jet to sit. Let's say he's right healthy, 681 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: ready to go place this Thursday. Given everything that you 682 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: talked about the old line from the Giants and their struggle, 683 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: I mean, do you guys pick two just let him 684 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: go out of rush rush, rush, or do you move 685 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 1: him to linebacker play when we're there. I've seen enough 686 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: of him at linebacker. That doesn't mean that I don't 687 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: want to like I think that we saw this week. 688 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 1: He actually lined up at linebacker, but he was rushing 689 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: from the middle of the field. Ye, So to me, 690 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: he is a pass rusher. That's where I want to 691 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: see him. So you figure out where you want to 692 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 1: put him, but he should be going after quarterback Clark 693 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: vander Esh you're responsible for the run game I'm putting 694 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: I'm putting Parsons down on the edge. I'll put him 695 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: on the edge next to up whoever you feel like 696 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: doesn't have the best opportunity, because if they're gonna run 697 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: the ball at Armstrong and whoever else is playing right 698 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 1: defensive end, I'm thinking about putting Michael Parsons over there too, 699 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 1: Like you want to run at our weakness, I'm gonna 700 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 1: put our best player over there, and I'm gonna make 701 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: you have to block him in this game, and you 702 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: don't want to run at Tank. And I thought in 703 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: the press conference McCarthy talked about him, Uh, you know, 704 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: he's probably not gonna make Pro Bowl because he doesn't 705 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: have the number of sacks this year, because that's that's 706 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 1: what you got to have if you're playing defensive and 707 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 1: all that. But um, he's had an excellent year and 708 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,360 Speaker 1: that's what McCarthy talked about too, because he's he's a 709 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: run stopper that's getting after the quarterback. Yeah, team where 710 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: you need run stoppers. Yea. His sack that he had 711 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: where he beat the tackle the outside and then tried 712 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: to come over and take him and he went inside. 713 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 1: It was like the bag drill that we see at 714 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,240 Speaker 1: training camp, but they're weaving in and out of bags 715 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 1: and then they're slapping. You know. That's what it looked 716 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: like to me. And that's that's what Tank does. He's 717 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 1: got that feel for not letting people hook him in 718 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: the running game or angle block him or anything like that. 719 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: There's like four or five teams in the league that 720 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: don't have Actually I think more than that, maybe seven 721 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: or eight. I didn't see the other AFC. There's like 722 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,839 Speaker 1: seven or eight teams that don't have a guy with 723 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: five sacks this year, and and and Dante Fowler has 724 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys, and he ranks fourth on the team 725 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,400 Speaker 1: behind Tank Seat. I mean, that's the problem. Teams that 726 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: don't even have five sacks and then you're fourth on 727 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 1: this that's the problem with the Giants. That's the problem 728 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 1: with the Giants right now. They're Dexter Lawrence is their 729 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: best sack guy, and that's their defensive tackle because Tibodeau 730 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: only has one. And Thibodeau Thibodeau is I think he's 731 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 1: going to be an outstanding player one day. He has 732 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: no feel for how to rush the passer. Right now, 733 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 1: they've got him kind of tied up as far as now. 734 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,919 Speaker 1: We'll see rookie on rookie this week. You know, we'll 735 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 1: see how that all plays out. But to me, I man, 736 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: the pass rush, that's where the Cowboys have got to 737 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: feast a little bit in this game. There's not that 738 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: guy that you would say, Okay, well, yeah, Tibodeau could 739 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 1: be a good player, but man, I worry more about 740 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: the inside guys. I worry about Dexter Lawrence. I worry 741 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 1: about Leonard Williams. Those are the guys I think you 742 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: have to worry about in this football game. All Right, 743 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 1: we're gonna take our final break. Will come back, talk 744 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,959 Speaker 1: about This defense is run defense, and this week they'll 745 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: have a challenge. We'll see if you guys think they 746 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: can match it.

Let's talk real quick about the Cowboys 790 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 1: run defense the Giants. They've been running the ball really well, 791 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,360 Speaker 1: but in the two of the last three games that 792 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: they've lost, they were held in the rushing game to 793 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 1: under one hundred yards seventy eight against Seattle eighty nine 794 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 1: against Detroit. Do you think Dallas is ready to stop 795 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 1: the run because I think last week you can say 796 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: they did, But if you look at the raw numbers 797 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: of how much they were getting per carry, Minnesota was 798 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: doing pretty good on the ground. What do you think 799 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 1: happens here? This team will be to running. Yeah, they're 800 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,960 Speaker 1: not gonna let Daniel Jones, and especially with a beat 801 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: up offensive line, They're just not gonna do it. I 802 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: mean they're gonna We've kind of figured out in the 803 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: league that you could be a kind of a mediocre 804 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 1: offensive line and still have offense if you run the ball, 805 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: because guys are much better run blockers than they are 806 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,840 Speaker 1: pass blockers. You saw what happened in Minnesota. You know good, 807 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 1: you know, I think Minnesota has a good offensive line. 808 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 1: I think they gat really compromised in that game. And 809 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 1: I just don't know how if you when you watch 810 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,720 Speaker 1: the tape at the Cowboys, I could give you every 811 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys game this year on defense, all twenty two, and 812 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 1: you would come away with saying, why would you ever 813 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: throw the ball against these guys? It looks like when 814 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,760 Speaker 1: you run it, teams have a little bit more success 815 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,320 Speaker 1: to it. And now they might not win the game, 816 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:45,240 Speaker 1: but it keeps it keeps your quarterback from getting killed. 817 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: And that's what the Giants do. The Giants want to 818 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,840 Speaker 1: keep the game close. They're not interested in, you know, 819 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 1: they're not interested in trying to build a lead and 820 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: and and you know, and hang on that way they're like, well, 821 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 1: we could keep it closed because they've won games in 822 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: the fourth Tennessee again where they steal it and the 823 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 1: Green Bay they've won games in the fourth. They had 824 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 1: like a like they're like four or five games they've 825 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: won in the last, you know, the last quarter of 826 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: a game. So this team is going to come in 827 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 1: and say, you know, they're going to try and get 828 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,240 Speaker 1: se Quon Barkley one hundred and eighty five yards rushing 829 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 1: is what they're going to try and do. Just be 830 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: ready for that. Yep. And when they get when they 831 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,319 Speaker 1: get to second and three from the Cowboys seven yard line, 832 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 1: they're not going to throw it twice to the tight end. 833 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: And that's what Cousins did. That's what the Vikings did. 834 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 1: And I thought they were arrogant and stubborn at going 835 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: out and saying we're the best in the league, we 836 00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:33,359 Speaker 1: got the best offense, we do what we do, We're 837 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,320 Speaker 1: not worried about you, and that that was a mistake 838 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 1: because they should have kept doing that. I don't think 839 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 1: they would have run it at six point you know, 840 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: six point four yards a clip or whatever it was. 841 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,760 Speaker 1: But they were having some success. But I think sometimes 842 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 1: and coaches do it all the time. Coaches are arrogant 843 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 1: and they're stubborn, and they think because they spent all 844 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 1: week doing this that nobody's going to stop it. And 845 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys do it. There was a play 846 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: you talked about the other day, Schultz, the interception against 847 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: Green Bay. You said in practice, they did it all weekend. 848 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 1: It was working well. Marquis Bell is not playing for 849 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 1: the Packers or juan Ya Thomas the practice squad safety. 850 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,760 Speaker 1: I think sometimes that's what happens when you do ones 851 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:15,280 Speaker 1: versus the scout team. I get, but it built your conference. 852 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,479 Speaker 1: And also it's not giving you a great look because 853 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 1: you're playing some corner out there that's not very good. 854 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:21,080 Speaker 1: It's not as good as you're going to see on 855 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,799 Speaker 1: this game. So and I think the Vikings did that 856 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:25,839 Speaker 1: and we're gonna do what we do and they got 857 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 1: shut down. Yeah, I don't think. And it's hard to 858 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 1: tell how much they actually improve. Going back to your 859 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 1: point of what the Vikings decided not to do and 860 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 1: like keep running the ball, but this is a game 861 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 1: where I see them kind of possibly struggling at times 862 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 1: with the running game, the running defense. But they'll do 863 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 1: enough going back to those earlier games, don't do enough 864 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 1: for you to stay in the game and your offense 865 00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 1: to be able to score points for you, and you 866 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 1: just end up winning overall. So I just think that 867 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,719 Speaker 1: it's not going to kill them. But they'll have those games, 868 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 1: those plays where it looks bad and you're like, oh, 869 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 1: here they are again. Yeah, which Cowboy offense is going 870 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: to show up in this game because it could put 871 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on the Giants. They put a 872 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: lot of pressure on Minnesota to have to keep trying 873 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 1: to score, you know, or they didn't put enough pressure 874 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 1: on green Bay even though they got up fourteen. Green 875 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,400 Speaker 1: Bay was like, Okay, we're fine, but you know, you 876 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 1: can't have a seventeen play drive and then the next 877 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 1: three drives go three and out and then oh, by 878 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,880 Speaker 1: the way, the game's now tight. Oh going another twelve 879 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,400 Speaker 1: play drive and score okay, and then go three and 880 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 1: out the next two series again. If the Cowboys are 881 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: consistent and not, you're not going to have the type 882 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 1: of offense that you had against Minnesota, but you're capable. 883 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:38,400 Speaker 1: You're capable of putting a world a hurt on a 884 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 1: defense with your receivers. You're running game in your quarterback 885 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: if he's willing to throw the ball and run the 886 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 1: ball when he has to. Yeah, you look at the 887 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: scores of what they've the points they've put up since 888 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 1: Dak has been back twenty four, twenty eight, forty. They're 889 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 1: putting up points and certainly putting up points at a 890 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,399 Speaker 1: large clip, a large enough clip where they can put 891 00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: pressure on opponents and force them to have to keep scoring. 892 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: The only thing we've seen that really has nullified that, 893 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,880 Speaker 1: and you would talk about the Green Bay game, is 894 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 1: a team that can slow them down enough because they 895 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 1: keep the ball long enough because they have long, extended 896 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,360 Speaker 1: drives without running the ball to keep the offensive the 897 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,160 Speaker 1: offense on the sideline. Cowboys off on Giants. Giants are 898 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: gonna want to give you eight possessions in this game. 899 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: They're gonna give you eight or n I mean that 900 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 1: that's what they don't They don't want you to have 901 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 1: eleven or twelve. They want you to have eight or 902 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,719 Speaker 1: nine possessions. And that's what they're gonna do. I mean, 903 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: I think they're committed to saying that, you know what, 904 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 1: we can't pass block against this group, but we sure 905 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 1: can give running the football an opportunity here. Yeah, I 906 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,920 Speaker 1: mean I just did the math here. Twenty one points 907 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,359 Speaker 1: a game is what the Cowboys had when with Cooper 908 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,960 Speaker 1: Rush as the starter, and twenty eight points a game 909 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,399 Speaker 1: for the for when Dak is to start. Now he's 910 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: had that, He had that three three points against the Bucks. 911 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 1: Can't take it out. But I do think this is 912 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 1: a completely different team since then, since Dak's come back. 913 00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: Their average in thirty five points a game, and they 914 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:00,120 Speaker 1: figured things out with um with the running game. And 915 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:02,320 Speaker 1: one more quick point we talked about just now in 916 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 1: the break when they played the Giants before. This will 917 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: be the first time the Giants have faced someone again 918 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: for the second time, so their second division game. But 919 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 1: Dak played in that game. I didn't play in the game. 920 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:20,040 Speaker 1: Dak returns, Michael Gallup returns, Connor McGovern returns, Curse returns. 921 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just completely in Dalton Schultz. There's a 922 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,399 Speaker 1: lot of guys that didn't play in that first game. So, yeah, 923 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 1: the Giants might be a better team. I think the 924 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: Cowboys are better team too. And they're they're rolling now 925 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 1: like they are rolling in a way. I think that's 926 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 1: a little bit different than maybe what they were in 927 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 1: week three. All right, appreciate you guys joining for Nick. 928 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 1: Even Brian brought us Amber Garcia. I'm Derek Eagleton.
