Not Hell Marris. No, 0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:15.480 not to me, not because I watched it. Yeah, nineteen 0:01:15.640 --> 0:01:18.760 eighty I mean, I mean the eighty Alvin Harper to 0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:20.800 play seventy two yards against the forty nine ers, that 0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:23.480 that would just that what kind of propelled them to 0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:26.119 a dynasty. I loved Alvin Harper. I loved his game. 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:28.600 I just kind of I just overlooked it yesterday. And 0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:30.680 so all these people that hit me up yesterday, I 0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:34.680 apologize eighty all right, eighty one. Don't say it. Don't 0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:37.320 say it. Don't say it. Don't even use him. Give 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:39.560 me another one. I don't want that one. I give 0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:44.080 that one back. Give me another one. Oh, peerless price? 0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:49.480 Maybe really Laurn Robinson. He busted out eleven touchdown. He 0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:51.640 actually had one of those years where he got paid 0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:53.880 off that year. Yeah, yeah, he got a nice deal 0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:56.520 for another team. Yeah, that year he had here. I 0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:58.480 guess I thought, you're gonna say your boy, James Whyland 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.440 mean trust me, Chris, I can do. I can wait 0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:05.840 like four more times with him. Because he passed around. 0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:10.240 He weren't more numbers than anybody. Yeah, all right, I'll 0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:13.280 take my popcorn somewhere else. All right, you weren't going 0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:17.560 for it, you're not having it. Whatever. Great player, Yeah, 0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:20.040 it was a great player. He was great drama. Do 0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:23.040 you know who we're talking to the drama. Nope, popcorn, 0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:26.760 get your popcorn ready? What about Jackie Smith? Oh? I remember? 0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:29.240 Because who was it that Maine a comment about it? 0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:32.320 Was it Celee that one time kind of set a 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.440 comment like that too, was it? Do I say something 0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:39.240 about that? Lately? Somebody said popcorn? I forgot who it 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:41.440 was it was recently said it? We're talking about Arrell? 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:44.960 Was that Jerry on his radio show the other day? Maybe? 0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:47.120 Well there was somebody else's I'm pretty sure it was 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:50.400 Celee Lamb earlier in the year that he said get 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:55.280 your popcorn ready in reference to the three wide receivers 0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:59.160 playing together and all that, something like that. Yeah, old 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:02.840 Terrell Lawns. He was different. Yeah, no, Jackie Smith. And 0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:05.960 nobody wants to hear Jackie. People would rather hear to 0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:08.239 than hear Jackie Smith, Who's in the Hall of Fame. 0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:10.280 So it's hey, look, don't get me wrong. TiO was 0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:12.880 a really good player and really good player here to 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:15.000 was just one of those guys that it was always 0:03:15.080 --> 0:03:18.560 you were kind of weighing that balance between his talent 0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:21.280 and the drama he brought, right and whatever point, the 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:25.079 talent was not enough to overcome the drama. Then he 0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:26.800 had to be out, And that's the hard part for 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:28.880 guys like that, Like he probably could have played here, 0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:31.239 He probably could have had a much longer career if 0:03:31.240 --> 0:03:33.320 the drama didn't always seem to follow him. I'll tell 0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:36.040 you I've played basketball with him. I've shot some hoops 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.520 with him. Before the game in Carolina in two thousand 0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:42.720 and seven, our hotel had a basketball court and went 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:45.400 up there and were shooting with another guy who covers. 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:48.680 He used to cover the team, and we were shooting 0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:51.680 and it was just three of us, two basketballs, and 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:53.520 you know, TiO had his own ball. You know how 0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:56.880 maybe you miss, you know, then you know you don't 0:03:56.920 --> 0:03:59.280 get changed. You know, he get the ball. But with TiO, 0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:00.920 we were just send it back to him, you know, 0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:03.320 and he was like, noah, man, let's just shoots. So 0:04:03.360 --> 0:04:04.720 it was good. And then all of a sudden we 0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:05.920 had to go to the bus and all that, and 0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:07.440 then he went and played the game and got hurt 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:10.280 and hurt that night. Certainly didn't get hurt before, right, No, 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:13.400 it got hurt that making sure. Yeah, So basically I 0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:15.400 got pink eye that night. Two that night, I got 0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:17.240 pink eye, And yeah, it was a bad day. It 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:19.880 was bad. Yeah, it was a bad day on the plane. 0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:21.920 Like I don't know what that story looks like, but 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:26.919 I was trying to write after the game with Pink Eye, Yeah, 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:33.440 I was gonna say he actually didn't really play together. 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:42.560 He basically was just around picking up probably true. Yeah, 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:46.040 there was no one on one with with TiO or 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.679 anything like that. Speaking of basketball, one of the best 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:51.159 basketball game pick up basketball games I ever saw in 0:04:51.200 --> 0:04:53.560 my life. And I think I've told you this story before. 0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:57.280 It happened at training camp years ago. I was my 0:04:57.400 --> 0:05:00.120 room was like literally there was this little area in 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:03.920 the restricted area of the of Oxnart where we where 0:05:03.920 --> 0:05:06.440 we stay, where they had a basketball goal that would 0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:08.240 sit there at the end, and every once in a 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:10.040 while guys would come out there and play a little bit. 0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:12.520 But I was already getting ready for bed, and all 0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:15.240 of a sudden, I'm hearing all this noise and that 0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:17.880 the players had gotten out of their night meetings and 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:22.400 a pickup basketball game and gotten started. And Tony's out there, 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:26.280 Cole Beasley's out there, Daz is out there. I mean, 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:29.560 it's like all the players are out there, and it 0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:31.600 was a battle. I when I tell you they were 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:34.000 battling back when I sat there at my window because 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:35.360 I was on the second floor. I sat there in 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:38.200 my window and watched the game because that's how entertainment 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.520 it was. Yeah, did you see it too. I kind 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:41.800 of came out of there because it was there. Was 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:43.719 one of those same people were talking about. Yeah it was. 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:45.279 It was a good and you could hear it. Yeah, 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:48.280 you definitely heard was there. Yeah, so you can definite right, 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:51.159 so you knew something was there. And then uh and 0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:54.760 Sean Lee I believe, Yeah, John was out there a payer. 0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:56.800 But all of them, like I was like, but this 0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:59.200 just tells you how great athletes Like I saw my 0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:01.920 wife this other day, Like, there is no guy that's 0:06:01.960 --> 0:06:06.159 playing professional football, professional basketball that is not a great, 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:09.360 I mean, an outstanding athlete. People would like to say, oh, 0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:12.960 he's he's crap, he's trash whatever. Trust me, none of 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:16.239 these guys are trash. These are these are top world 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:19.120 class athletes. And all you gotta do is watch him 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:21.560 do other things that are athletic and you'll see just 0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:25.160 how athletic. They saw that firsthand. We played flag football 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:28.440 back in the day. Um Tony was on that team 0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:30.000 for a little bit and no one even knew him. 0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:33.680 But that wasn't what I remember the most. Well, yeah, 0:06:33.720 --> 0:06:35.000 I do remember that in the most because he was 0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:37.680 a quarterback. But he was a great defensive player too. 0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:42.120 But Marcus Steele an back, Yeah, fourth round pig usc 0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:45.880 wasn't that grade. It was Okay, he comes out playing 0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:48.840 with us. Dude was a baller, like as a as 0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:52.080 a receiver. I mean, I mean that he was a 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.359 pretty big linebacker. He wasn't a little used to have 0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:57.120 a show called Pros Versus Joe's, Yeah, and it was 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.560 that's what it was. I mean, Marcus Steele was just 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:02.080 just Andy mosson people us out there. You know, he 0:07:02.120 --> 0:07:04.480 was on our team. But that that was a good 0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:08.240 example of like these guys are just they're differently phenomenal athletes. 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:11.680 Phenomenal were named. Yeah, all right, so here, let's go 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:14.520 into let's get some injury updates here. What do you 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:16.520 know about Tony Pollard At this point, I think Tony 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:19.600 polar I mean, it looks like it's going to go 0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:21.800 down to the end again, but I mean it sounds 0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:25.480 like it's kind of progressing. I mean, I don't know. 0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:27.240 I didn't get a chance to listen to McCarthy there, 0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:28.960 and I know we're still we're still listen to it now, 0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:32.080 but like sounds like from this morning that that is 0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:34.560 still like they're kind of ramping it up where he's 0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:36.000 going to get at least a chance to do it. 0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:38.480 Now he'll be on the field before the game. I 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:40.440 bet it comes right down to it again. It's all 0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:43.360 about the comfort level of how he's feeling pretty much 0:07:43.440 --> 0:07:45.840 that day. Yeah, when it's when it's a torn plant 0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:48.080 or fascia, you might know more about this side. I 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:49.840 don't know a ton about it. I don't. It sounds 0:07:49.840 --> 0:07:51.480 like it's a pain management kind of thing. It is 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:55.160 that I've always been to pain tolerance, pain tolerance and 0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:57.680 also but from what I've heard of like that one, 0:07:57.760 --> 0:08:00.880 the one that he has is the time that if 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:04.240 you like keep walking on it too much or whatever, 0:08:04.400 --> 0:08:07.320 you can make it actually worse. Really, Yeah, that's what 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.800 I've read somewhere and heard about his specific one. Because 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:14.000 you can have one that it's just pain related, but 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:17.840 I believe that his, if he gets out there too 0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:20.120 soon or whatever, he can actually just make it worse. 0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:24.280 Clementins the Giants, I mean, I don't mean I don't 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:25.880 need to tell you wouldn't even would you just not 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:27.920 even chance to just be like give him another week? Why, 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:30.960 I mean, you do want to clench this thing. I mean, 0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:32.880 I don't think it's good. We're gonna get in that 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:35.120 a little later. There are all some scenarios, but go ahead, 0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:37.120 he can need a whole segment if you need a lot. Yeah, 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:39.559 we're gonna go down that thing. I'm gonna make Amber 0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:43.440 pick all the games too. I mean, I just if 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.240 in that case, in that scenario, making it worse, I'm not. 0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:48.160 I'm not. I'm not in the business of making it worse. 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:49.720 So I could beat the Giants on the road and 0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:52.520 then I'm not saying that it's gonna be a cakewalk 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:54.800 or whatever. But I think you if you could beat 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.720 Washington on the road without him, I think you can 0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:00.040 beat the Giants. Yeah. So no, I'm not risking it. 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:02.040 I mean division games or division games, there's no such 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:05.280 things an easy division game. But I get your point 0:09:05.320 --> 0:09:07.760 out Pride. They hate the Cowboys. I mean, you know 0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:10.440 the fans that go to the game that are for 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:13.240 the Giants. I mean, it'll it'll it'll be a I'm 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.080 not gonna say it's a battle. I think they're gonna 0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:16.800 do the best they can. I just think the Cowboys 0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:19.720 are just head shoulders above them, and I don't think 0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:22.559 they're in they're in the boat right now that they're 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:25.560 gonna be looking past anybody. I think we've kind of 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:28.120 done that. I think they're gonna get their attention. And 0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:29.640 if they get their attention, and then we just think 0:09:29.679 --> 0:09:31.880 they're gonna get their best. I don't think the giants 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:33.440 can hang in there. So we're just picking games right 0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:35.360 here for a segment. No we're not. But well we'll 0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:37.400 get to that. De Marcus Lawrence, tell what's going on 0:09:37.400 --> 0:09:39.200 with him? He dis practice yesterday or it was limited. 0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:41.600 I shouldn't let me, let me pull that stuff up. 0:09:41.640 --> 0:09:44.240 I don't pay attention to that kind of stuff. I 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:46.480 gotta ask about Tank, and I was like, Tank, it 0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:49.040 was good. I don't honestly that that one caught me 0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:51.360 by surprise this morning. I didn't even know anything about 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:54.800 the Marcus Lawrence. So I need David here to mess 0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:56.680 with all. He's the one that's been talking to coach 0:09:56.760 --> 0:09:59.320 here for the last what thirty minutes, forty five minutes? 0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:02.160 I guess let's let's wait on a tank update. Okay, 0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:04.560 I did hear them this morning. They'll say Cedric Wilson. 0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:07.040 Wilson sounds like there's a possibility he could be back 0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:09.800 at practice today. He's out right now with COVID. I 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:11.880 assume there's a test that he's gonna have to pass. 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:16.840 He's negative, but it sounds like there's a possibility a chance. Okay, 0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:19.800 I know they have the new protocols coming out, or 0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:22.480 they they're out. I guess. Yeah. One of them was 0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:25.240 that you only have to pass one test. Yeah, so 0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:29.560 those new protocols. I guess they asked him about that, 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:31.600 and he said, I'm not that's not necessarily what I'm saying. 0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:34.720 What I'm saying is based on where he is and 0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:38.199 in the protocol he is, there's a possibility that he 0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:40.640 can be back. He didn't. I was. I think he 0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:42.920 was being very careful not to say one of the 0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:45.320 other ways, the old protocol, new protocol. He just said, 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:47.760 based on what I've been told by Jim this morning, 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:50.199 Jim Mauer, he says, it sounds like there's a chance 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:52.320 that he could be back to it, which means it 0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:55.960 comes down to symptoms. I mean, it starts with symptoms. 0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:59.119 With players like that, because if they don't have symptoms, 0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:01.079 then that's the first thing, and then they got a 0:11:01.080 --> 0:11:03.160 past ten. It's just a test, not the other way around. 0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:06.640 It's it's the symptoms, sir. So he's if he symptom free, um, 0:11:07.120 --> 0:11:10.079 you know, that's that's obviously a good thing, and that'll 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:12.760 be a good you know, he's a guy that he 0:11:12.800 --> 0:11:15.400 needs to play for this offense. I think he's a 0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:17.000 real big part of this offense, big part of the 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:20.160 special teams. You know. He's just one of those glue 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:23.120 guys that I always compared to Patrick Crayton. I think 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:25.280 he's that type of guy, and I think those guys 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:27.640 are important and more than anything else. I really at 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:29.960 this point, with with all the challenges they're having right 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.240 now on the offense, I want as many of the 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:36.800 guys out there as possible because that all allows those repetitions, 0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:38.920 allow them to hopefully get back in that rhythm that 0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:41.320 they were having earlier in the season. And he's a 0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:43.920 part of that. So he's not a key cog. There 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:45.520 are other guys that are more important, but I do 0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:47.640 think him having him in the mix, I think is 0:11:47.679 --> 0:11:49.679 a part of it. And I kind of wanted him 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:51.199 to get back out there. I wanted to be out there, 0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:55.000 to be able to be playing tank. Yeah, tanks playing Okay, good, 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:57.680 We're not a tank? All right? Good? Are we worried 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:02.600 about anybody? No? Okay, can shoot? Even Cedric Wilson apparently 0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:07.720 might be back at work today. Um, I still don't 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:10.880 feel great about that one. We'll see, we'll see better. 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:13.480 I feel the same way that I have earlier this week, 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:16.240 which is like not confident, but has anything changed in 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:19.839 what he's doing or he had was limb. He participated 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:22.439 in practice for the first time yesterday he was limited, 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:25.800 which means he did something other than rehab on the side, 0:12:25.960 --> 0:12:29.320 So step in the right direction. Yeah, Nick was saying 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:31.120 he thinks it, you know, if it was up to him, 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.360 he just sent him this week, Like why mess with it? 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:36.160 If given another week? If it's what Amber said, if 0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:39.080 it's a situation that it can get worse, if you 0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:41.080 get if you if you, you know, run on a 0:12:41.160 --> 0:12:43.280 walk on it. There is some talk too that if 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:46.000 it tears, it's better, so more you. But he hasn't 0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:48.000 he torn it. I thought the way he was talking 0:12:48.160 --> 0:12:50.480 when he had his press conference, it sounded like it 0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:53.880 was already torn. He just wasn't seeing the benefit yet 0:12:53.880 --> 0:12:56.600 of it being torn, which waiting on it to feel better. Right, Yeah, 0:12:56.640 --> 0:13:00.240 he was waiting for that point grimacing. Imagine imagining lang 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:04.560 a professional sport with a torn anything. Yeah, but good 0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:08.920 for you, right. Pro football players are tough. Yeah, all right. 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:10.520 What we're gonna do is we're gonna take our final 0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:12.320 break when we come back. I got some storylines we're 0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:15.319 going to talk through. Like final thing was that long 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:18.839 first break? Sorry, first break. When we come back, we 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:21.439 have some storyline items we're gonna get to and we 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:24.079 will at some point in this show breakdown the scenario 0:13:24.120 --> 0:13:26.560 Cowboys have a chance this weekend. There is a chance 0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:29.880 Cowboys can wrap up the division. We'll talk about those scenarios. 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:32.200 We'll get these guys to pick those games and what 0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:34.240 they think is gonna happen in all those games that 0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:36.200 have to fall Cowboys way. We'll talk about that when 0:13:36.200 --> 0:13:38.000 we come back. This is Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio 0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:42.040 at ATNC.

It is the second segment of 0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:15.320 break off from WBC Morgage Studios at the Star where 0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:18.800 you're talking Cowboys versus Giants. They play the Sunday noon 0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:22.480 Central Time. We will get to a little later these 0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:26.520 scenarios that the Cowboys have or that that could possibly 0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:28.840 allow them to clinch the NFC East this weekend. But 0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:30.120 before we get to that, let's hit some of the 0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:32.800 storylines of this game. I think there's a lot of 0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:35.720 intrigue for me, at least on what's going to happen 0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:38.200 with the offensive line, because there could be some moving parts. Still, 0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:40.680 let's talk first about the left tackle position. Who do 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:43.119 you think is the better option. I'm not saying necessarily 0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:44.880 who's going to be out there. I think we all 0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:46.720 know who's going to be out there, But who's the 0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.320 better option between Tie and Seki and Terrence Still at 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:53.040 left tackle? I think it depends on what you're asking 0:16:53.080 --> 0:16:55.840 them to do. I think you're asking them to play 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:59.160 the Giants. No, I'm like asking them what job you 0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:02.240 want them to do? Run blocking, verse, pass blocking. I 0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:05.560 think Inseci give him some credit, Like for as much 0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:07.800 as people dog him, he's gone in a couple times 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:09.960 this season and held his own. He did it Sunday, 0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:12.600 he did it against He looked. I thought that. I 0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:15.000 thought Cooper Rush was gonna get killed in Minnesota when 0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:17.280 he first came in, and then he'd settled down and 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:19.560 was great for the rest of that game. I think 0:17:19.560 --> 0:17:23.160 Tie and Secki gives you something as a pass protector 0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:27.840 better than what Steel can give you, at least comparable, 0:17:27.880 --> 0:17:30.800 if not outright better. Yes, I don't see them that 0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:35.800 much different from the each other. Yeah. I would go 0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:39.719 down to Kellen Moore and be like, what what are 0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:42.640 you going to do this week with Terrence Steele as 0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:46.280 far as the jumbo packages? Are you going to use him? 0:17:46.359 --> 0:17:51.239 Do you want that a part of your game? You know? 0:17:51.359 --> 0:17:53.560 If so, because because it's that close to me, it's 0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:55.480 the Inseci and Steel if it's that close. If it 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:59.080 is that close, and then Steele helps be that extra 0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:02.560 tight end that reports eligible and all that stuff. Then 0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:05.040 I'm then I'm okay with with starting in Sechy. I'd 0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:07.960 be okay with that. Um, I don't think that's gonna happen. 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:10.040 I think Steel's gonna start at left tackle though, that's 0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:13.240 what I think it all, But I no that I 0:18:13.280 --> 0:18:15.360 think he's right. I think Steele will start. I'm not 0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:18.840 gonna be surprised if they both have a role though, 0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:23.600 you think in that jumbo role or that pretty good 0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:28.199 the rotat them like they did, definitely jumbo and depending 0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:30.200 on the situation. I just I think we'll see both. 0:18:30.680 --> 0:18:33.520 I think we will era you do what you do 0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:37.679 the defensive line, same thing to say it doesn't work. 0:18:37.680 --> 0:18:39.880 All right, Let's talk about the guard position. There's been 0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:43.639 talk this week that the Cowboys should or could change 0:18:43.680 --> 0:18:46.040 the left guard. UM. Who do you think is to 0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:48.639 be at a better option there, Connor Williams or Conomal Governor. 0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:52.840 I think it's um. I think it's very similar, and 0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:54.960 I don't think the drop off is that severe. I 0:18:54.960 --> 0:18:57.720 think Connor Williams is a better athlete than Connor McGovern, 0:18:57.760 --> 0:18:59.680 at least when it comes to playing offensive line. I 0:18:59.720 --> 0:19:02.640 think Connor McGovern deserves a lot of credit for how 0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:06.239 well he's done that hulk thing the fullback basically, I 0:19:06.240 --> 0:19:08.960 mean it started out as kind of a joke, like, oh, 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:11.960 Kellen's just showing off, but like he's pretty he's pretty good, 0:19:12.119 --> 0:19:14.440 like and that's an element that they haven't had, Like 0:19:14.480 --> 0:19:16.240 Connor Williams has kind of done it, but it's just 0:19:16.280 --> 0:19:19.399 not the same good and so I don't mean that. Like, 0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:21.919 obviously Connor McGovern is a great athlete in his own right, 0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:25.040 but I think Connor Williams as a guard gives you 0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:28.800 more athleticism. I don't think it's dan Orlovsky was talking 0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:31.640 about this this week and people were asking Kellen Moore 0:19:31.760 --> 0:19:35.560
