20
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: about a bet that happened last week, and I want

21
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: to talk about how last week Isaiah was so confident

22
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 1: that Andy Dalton was gonna throw for three hundred touchdown

23
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 1: or three hundred yards and three touchdowns against Cincinnati. And yeah,

24
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: that's not a bad bet, it really isn't. But he

25
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: was confident in it. And so he lost that bet.

26
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: And so there was a Christmas tree that was shipped

27
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: to a certain heck Ma Harrison as payment for this bet.

28
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: But heck I heard, I heard Santa Claus left something

29
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: on your doorstep yesterday, and how was that. Let me

30
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: tell you something, man, this guy Isaiah, don't ever bet

31
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 1: him anything. He is an extremist, Okay, because this thing

32
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 1: that got delivered to my doorstep is Look, I understand

33
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 1: losing a bet, but did you have to find the

34
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: biggest damn tree you can find in Texas? If Paul

35
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,280

Speaker 1: a big ass tree. Okay. This is unbelievable, unbelievable, Okay.

39
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,680

00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: I know people have been asking us about the tree.

41
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,760

42
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 1: to have this thing set up back here, but there's

43
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:05,040

45
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: You fit in the room. Oh no, bro, somehow I

46
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: feel like I lost the bet. Like, yeah, I feel

47
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: like I lost. This is ridiculous, Isaiah. You do better,

Speaker 1: do better, Isaiah, better man. I appreciate you. I appreciate

49

Speaker 1: you bringing that that debot quote from Friday in there.

50
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: I won, you lost, But I told I told my guy.

51
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: I told my guy k y A k A Kyle.

52
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: I told him when I ordered it, because Kyle, how

53
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: long how long after losing the bet, after the game

54
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: actually ended? How long was it before it actually had

55
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: already put my phone down and say it's done. Not

56
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: very long, it was. It was right before we went

57
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: on the first word on Sunday, Tree is ordered. And

58
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, now, if you were so colfident

59
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: and just fact that you were like the tree is order,

60
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, something's up. Here. Hey, you know

61
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: what the thing is. You know, I'm a man of

62
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: my word, you know, and anybody who knows me, I'm

63
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: a man of my word, and anybody else who knows

64
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: me as well knows that I don't have step on anything. Heck,

65
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: if I win, I'm going to win. And if I lose,

66
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna lose, and I'm gonna take that ill. I'm

67
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 1: gonna put it right here in my forehead and I'm

68
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: gonna be proud in the prize in which I have

69
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: to now give someone. So heck, you won the bet

70
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 1: I felt. I did not like the fact that I lost.

71
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: I don't lose often, right, But it was out of

72
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: my hands. It was in the hands of Andy Dalton

73
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: and Kellen freaking Moore, Okay, and you know what I lost.

74
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: And I said, you know what, if I'm gonna give

75
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: him something, it has to represent Isaiah, it has to

76
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: represent everything Isaiah stands for. And it has to be big,

77
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: bold and bright. And that's what I wanted to make

78
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 1: sure that you and your family had. Y'all know the

79
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: tree that's outside Radio City Music Hall in New York,

80
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: That's what got delivered into my driveway. So Okay, you

81
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 1: know what I've got to My wife and I have

82
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: a tradition now every Christmas when we put up our tree,

83
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: we decorate it while we watch Christmas Vacation. Not nice.

84
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: And so there's that scene like ten minutes in where

85
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: they climb to like the top of the mountain and

86
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: cut a tree down and they put it up and

87
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: it's busts out all the windows in the living room

88
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: and all. That's what this is what I'm predicting. Yeah,

89
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: that little tree anymore? Hey, Rob, the biggest? Is it

90
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: gonna fit in his room? I said, oh no, no,

91
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: oh no, that's the thing. I didn't even I didn't

92
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: even ask that. I just said how big is it?

93
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: And he just said, an ang, gonna fit in that

94
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: little room? Pretty big. It's gonna be it. Heck, he's

95
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,239
Speaker 1: gonna be pushed. He's gonna be pushed into the side,

96
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: little branches and stuff, trying to like get his face

97
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: clear for the camera. I can't wait. We are praying

98
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: for you, buddy, and hopefully you get that thing up

99
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: by Monday so we can see it. Just take up

100
00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: the entire back of your room. Scott, can't wait. Move

101
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: some furniture in there as well. But let's talk about

102
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: the Cowboys a little bit here, and of course, the

103
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: Cowboys back on the practice field yesterday, and some more

104
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 1: injury news surrounding Ezekiel Elliott not in practice again for

105
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: the second straight day. Rob What's what else is on

106
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: the injury report whenever it comes to the Cowboys And

107
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,239
Speaker 1: is there a real concern around Zeke plan this weekend.

108
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a real concern. I mean,

109
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: I think they're trying to manage him to get him

110
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: to the game as best they can. Now. Look, he

111
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: was limited last week and was able to do something

112
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: in practice this week. I think coming out of the

113
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: game he had some some sortness, some stiffness with the calf,

114
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: and so they're really just trying to focus on, you know,

115
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 1: resistance training and all that stuff with the athletic training staff.

116
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 1: So we'll see. I think he wants to give it

117
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: a go. I know he wants to give it a go,

118
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: I would say on the injury report, if there's good news,

119
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: it's that you've got Anthony Brown full practice for the

120
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: first time I think it weeks. And in addition to

121
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: in addition to being off the COVID nineteen reserve list

122
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: and Donovan Wilson back to full practice. Secondary secondary looking

123
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: pretty good for this game potentially. Now, Xavier Woods did

124
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: have a growing issue that has limited him in practice

125
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: on Thursday, so that's something to keep an eye on.

126
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: I guess as we moved through the day and Saturday.

127
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: So I mean, what you're telling me here is there's

128
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: an opportunity because even Trayvon Diggs coming back and being

129
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: in the middle of practice. I talked with Steven Jones

130
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: yesterday and Stephen said that he's gonna see a lot

131
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: more playing time. He's gonna he's gonna be back. They're

132
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: not gonna shut him down. He's gonna see playing time

133
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: the rest of the season. He didn't specifically or specifically

134
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: say he was going to play on Sunday, but just

135
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: having him back in the mix is something that I

136
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: know the Jones family in the front office, along with

137
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: the coaching staff, is very excited about. But also not

138
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: to mention you throw in Xavier Woods, but if all

139
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: of these guys are back, it's the first time since

140
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: what week one, that we've seen our entire secondary back

141
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: in action and back in healthy guys. I wrote about

142
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: this yesterday actually on the website that it has not

143
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: happened all year. Anthony Brown, your top four corners, Anthony Brown,

144
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis, Cheeto, and Treyvon have not played in the

145
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: same game this season. So there's at least a chance

146
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: that that happens Sunday. If not Sunday, then possibly next week.

147
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: So will by next week will the playoffs be a possibility?

148
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: We'll find out. I guess we got to say it

149
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: with our chest hair at about forty minutes, Isaiah, how

150
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: big is it to have that secondary back and healthy,

151
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: because I mean it's been a problem spot all season long.

152
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: But kind of like how we've said on this show previously,

153
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: you've got to evaluate these guys on who you want

154
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: to bring back and be a part of this next year, right, absolutely,

155
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,719
Speaker 1: I mean evaluation happens every single day, and unfortunately these

156
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 1: guys have had a ton of injuries on the entire

157
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: side of the defensive side of the ball. But you know,

158
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: when you have your whole secondary, like like I'm mentioned yesterday,

159
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: it just it just feels different, right, It just feels different.

160
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, if somebody one of us had

161
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: to leave town, right for whatever it had to take

162
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: care of something and somebody else stepped in. Guess what

163
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: they say, you know, somebody else stepped in. You know,

164
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: we're appreciative and you know, yeah, they're probably probably gonna

165
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 1: do a good job. I guess what. It's not. It's

166
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: not the crew, right, it's not. It's not the same crew.

167
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: It's not the same. You know, we're not gonna we're

168
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: not gonna float the same, right, We're not gonna transition

169
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 1: the same. We're not gonna understand what we're kind of

170
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: thinking and all those kinds of things. It's gonna be

171
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: a little bit different, right, So we're gonna we're gonna

172
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: to make up for some some areas in which we

173
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: were lacking in. So it's no different when you step

174
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: on the football field. You know, when we talk about communication,

175
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 1: um and that chemistry, you know, we were hope and

176
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 1: we anticipate that those four guys really are in sync

177
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: that way. We hope so because if they are, you know,

178
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 1: that's that's the best talent that we have to put

179
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: out there at one given time. And that's what you want. Yeah,

180
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 1: that's the two words you say, communication and chemistry. Those

181
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: are the two things that worry me, especially these guys

182
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: not having that a in game experience together. So you know,

183
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 1: obviously it's good, it's it's a good sign to have

184
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: all of these guys back, especially with us not being

185
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, and so let's see. You know,

186
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: I want to know, I want to know how these

187
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: guys play together, especially knowing that we haven't been able

188
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,679
Speaker 1: to see this whole group. But going back to something

189
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,839
Speaker 1: you said, Kyle about Zeke not practicing, it does worry

190
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 1: me a little bit. It worries me as far as

191
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: you know it. Where's his health right now? I know

192
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: he's been been bogged down with this calf injury for

193
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Now, if we have any chance

194
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: to win this game vers to forty nine, and Zeke

195
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: is going to have to be a big part of it,

196
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: in this running game and just allowing us to be

197
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: able to move the change. He's one of the best

198
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 1: in the league at you know, getting those first downs

199
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: on third and short. So you know, having him in

200
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 1: there being that battering ram kind of running back that

201
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: he has been in twenty twenty, it's going to be necessary,

202
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 1: especially for this game. Steven's words exactly yesterday were, Zeke

203
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: is a competitor. I think he'll find a way to

204
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: be on the field on Sunday. So, without saying it specifically,

205
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: he thinks that Zeke will be available Sunday. But basically,

206
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: whenever I asked him what kind of participation is he

207
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: gonna be, it was, We're gonna see a lot of

208
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard. We're gonna see a bunch of different looks

209
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 1: from Kellen Moore. But how much of a wrinkle does

210
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: that take out of Kellen Moore's offense? And how how

211
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: does it affect Tony Pollard too? Because we've talked about

212
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: the one two punch. We talked about Ezekiel Elliott coming

213
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,439
Speaker 1: with the power and then Pollard comes with the finesse. Well,

214
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 1: whenever the power is gone, how easy is it to

215
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: slow down the finesse? Isaiah? Whenever it comes to slowing

216
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: down Tony Pollard, when you don't have to worry about

217
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott, Oh, it becomes substantially easier. You know, one

218
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: two punches are there for a reason. One person provides

219
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: the strength that the other person doesn't provide, and obviously

220
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: in vice versa, so all of a sudden. Say, for instance,

221
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: Zeke doesn't he doesn't play, he doesn't suit up for

222
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: some reason. Now Tony Pollard is the feature back, and

223
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: guess what those defenses are gonna focus in on him.

224
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 1: Now you're our guy. Now you get all of our attention.

225
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: It's no longer we're gonna watch seventy percent of Zeke

226
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: film in thirty sat A Pollard. Now it's like, now

227
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: we're gonna pick you apart, Poler. We're gonna know everything

228
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 1: that you do. Um, it's no longer a surprise. Um.

229
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: It's the same reason why you know in football, you

230
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: don't you don't run the same speed. You know, if

231
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 1: you if you're if you're trying to run around on somebody,

232
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,079
Speaker 1: you don't run the same speed the whole route. Because

233
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: guess what, I could stick with you, I know what

234
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: to expect. You want to be able to change gears

235
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: on somebody so that you can create some degrees of separation.

236
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,319
Speaker 1: So when you come with that one headed monster to

237
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: the whole game, I know what you're doing. But that

238
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: two headed monster, that change up, that that change a speed,

239
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: that's what really throws people off. So um, the element

240
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: of surprise has gone as soon as he's out there

241
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: just solely by himself, right, Yeah, I mean I would

242
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: lean towards Zeke playing in this game. He very well

243
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: could be listened as questionable later today, if you know,

244
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 1: even if he does play. Look at the stats from

245
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: the Bengals game last week. It was twelve carries for Zeke.

246
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: It was eleven carries for Pollard. So I think I

247
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: think TP's gonna get get some run either way. I

248
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: would say one one underrated part of a couple under

249
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: parts of Tony's game. I think he's better between the

250
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: tackles than he probably gets credit for. He's not Zeke,

251
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 1: and that's not the main part of his game. He

252
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: is that change of pace, but I think he can

253
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: do it. Also, I think some of that goes back

254
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: to what he did in college. He just wasn't that

255
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,559
Speaker 1: type of running back in college. He didn't have to be. Also,

256
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: I would say his blitz pick up in his pass protection.

257
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: I've just noticed it watching games this year, better than

258
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: it's been last year. There's just it seems like a

259
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: game a couple player two a game. I see him

260
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: may recognize something and give the quarterback whichever quarterback has

261
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: been in the game an extra second or two. So

262
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,719
Speaker 1: I think he's improved in a couple of different areas

263
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 1: since he's been drafted, and I think either way, he's

264
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: probably gonna get some touches this week. And that's I'm

265
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: glad you brought that up, Rock, because that's one of

266
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: the things that you that people don't really take, and

267
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: people take for granted. Look at much, Look at much

268
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: Zeke's probably rubbing off on him. You know, you can't,

269
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 1: even though Zeke isn't being the Zeke that we all

270
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 1: know what we would like this year, look at the

271
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,079
Speaker 1: other look at the other areas in which he's affecting

272
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,719
Speaker 1: the game. He's allowing our quarterback more time to throw

273
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: the ball. Right, He's given that sense of security to

274
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: coach philbin in the offensive line, right, knowing that somebody

275
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: else is back there. He's showing the guy that's that's

276
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: that's that's second in command behind him, exactly how you

277
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 1: go about your business, right, Okay, Paula. Yeah, you can

278
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: go out there and you can run around people, you

279
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: can get the edge and blow past me with your speed.

280
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: But guess what this part of your game that you

281
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: haven't that you haven't really excelled in this is where

282
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: this is where I excel right past blocking, right running downhill.

283
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: So look at those areas that Paula's growing in. He

284
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: has somebody to model that off of. So that's that's awesome. Yeah,

285
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 1: I think I like that. But but also also, you know,

286
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: I just feel like it feels as though the knock

287
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: on Kelly Moore's offense has been that he has gone

288
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: away from giving Zeke the lion share of the carries

289
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: right going, and Zeke's carries have progressively gone down. And

290
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: so you know, I know a lot of people we

291
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: talked about the great Nate Newton and his months or

292
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: three three yards in a cloud of dust, you know,

293
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: and people wanting to see Zeke just running to that

294
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: brick wall the whole game, Tony Pollard being that changeup guy,

295
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: and with Rob saying, look, he's, you know, Zeke rubbing

296
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: off on him and he is picking up those blitzes.

297
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: Gives you a little bit more trust in him. But

298
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: you know, for four quarters, I don't you know, I

299
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: don't know if we're in a situation like that where

300
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: we're primarily relying on him to do those things, if

301
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: we're in a good area, like, that's what I'm That's

302
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: all I'm saying as far as the importance of having

303
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: Zeke in here and Rob, You're right, he does a

304
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: lot better than people that say to give him credit

305
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: for meaning Tony Pollard in between the tackles. He is tough,

306
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: but he does have he is susceptible to losing yards

307
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,840
Speaker 1: on on runs, whereas it seems like for Zeke he's

308
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: always falling forward to gain a yard or two. So

309
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: that's just the difference between the two. But it's gonna

310
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: be interesting going into this game if we don't have him.

311
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: That's a good point because there was a couple of

312
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: games ago. I think it was the Ravens game. I

313
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 1: don't think it was a lack of strength on Tony's part,

314
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 1: but he hesitated hitting the hole following his landmarks, whatever

315
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: the case was, and he got dropped for a loss.

316
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: You know, Zeke just doesn't do that unless he gets

317
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 1: hit in the backfield. So some of that maybe just

318
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: comes with experience, And I do think there's times where

319
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: Zeke softens up the defense and the box. The look

320
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: is not the same for Tony. Maybe they're not expecting

321
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: a run and you know, if Tony is ever the

322
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: featured back in a situation if he has to be,

323
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: that's not gonna be the case anymore. Especially gets a

324
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: front like forty nine Ers front now, and they're gonna

325
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 1: bring pressure and they're gonna challenge Andy Dalton to throw

326
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: the football. If that's the case, I mean, they're gonna

327
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: they're gonna challenge Tony Pauler to being him on the ground,

328
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: and then it would make Andy Dalton's job uber more

329
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 1: tough whenever it comes to this Sunday to try and

330
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: figure out how to pick apart this forty nine Ers secondary.

331
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: But when we come back, I heard a couple of

332
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: things that were pretty interesting in the press conferences yesterday,

333
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 1: one about Kellen Moore and one from Jalen Smith that

334
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: I kind of want to break down a little bit

335
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 1: when we come back. On the other side of the break,

336
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: you're listening to talking Cowboys presented by Geico. There's nothing

390
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 1: stuff coming up later, and then we've also got some

391
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 1: predictions where Isaiah, you said earlier you don't lose very often.

392
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna challenge that because you lost a lot last week.

393
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 1: I just wanted to let you know, you know what

394
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: you but everybody knows that I was going to get

395
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: I was going against the grain last week. Everybody who

396
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,719
Speaker 1: heard it obvious, see, but it's okay. There's a difference

397
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: between going and there's a difference between the holding against

398
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 1: the grain and you know what one and then yeah,

399
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: you would, wouldn't you Because every single time, Isaiah that

400
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 1: you differed in picks from HECMA or Rob. You lost

401
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,360
Speaker 1: every single take, which I knew was a high percentage risk.

402
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, I'm just saying about we just move on, yeah,

403
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 1: and we're about bringing back the shots you don't take.

404
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 1: He missed all of the shots he did take, So yeah,

405
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: it's pretty unfortune, but it was. It wasn't a great

406
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 1: week for me, but I had a chance. He did

407
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 1: have a telling me there's a chance. Yeah. Okay, So

408
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 1: before we get into predictions, I heard some interesting press

409
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,199
Speaker 1: conference answers yesterday. We're gonna start with the positive one.

410
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: We're gonna start with the good. We'll get with the

411
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: bad or maybe you want to call it ugly later

412
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: here in this segment. But I wanted to talk about

413
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 1: what Kellen Moore or excuse me, what Andy Dalton said

414
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: about Kellen Moore yesterday. He's been resilient just with everything

415
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 1: that's gone on. He's been able to adjust to playing

416
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,959
Speaker 1: four different quarterbacks this year. He's been able to adjust

417
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 1: to some different guys not being in the lineup and

418
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 1: has given us great opportunities out there. High praise for

419
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: our Andy Dalton talking about how there's a lot of

420
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: back and forth there's different coaches, there's different players, different

421
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: things going on amongst this offense, and I kind of

422
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: wanted to ask the question, what kind of growth have

423
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 1: we seen from Kevin Moore? Because I feel like early

424
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: in the season there was a lot of blame on

425
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: the young boy genius coordinator, and lately there hasn't been

426
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: as much of that worry. You've seen some of the creativity,

427
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,879
Speaker 1: You've seen some of the play calling that's allowed them

428
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 1: to be successful. Sure, there's some short yard of situation

429
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: things kind of thrown in there that you could argue,

430
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 1: but overall, and we'll start with you, Hackma, how have

431
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: you felt about Kellen Moore lately and how has he

432
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: grown as a coordinator here in twenty twenty. You know,

433
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: some of the criticism of Kelly Moore has been warranted,

434
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: but you know, when you look at this season, man,

435
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 1: he's been so shorthanded with personnel that it's hard to

436
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 1: be critical of everything that he does. I think in

437
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia game, we were just all over the place

438
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: just with Ben Denucci and him trying to get through

439
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: that game, and like you just said, man, he's had

440
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,360
Speaker 1: four different quarterbacks in there and just trying to put

441
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 1: a game plan for the strengths of all of these

442
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: guys has been a challenge. And so look, it's not

443
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: Kelly Moore isn't a guy that I'm worried about it

444
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 1: all as far as his ability to get the quarterback

445
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, you know, moving this offense. You look at

446
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,399
Speaker 1: the numbers that he's put up. I think Dak was

447
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: at eighteen nineteen hundred yards before he got hurt. So

448
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 1: come on, man, It's just it's just one of those

449
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: years where you look at Kellen Moore and just say, look, man,

450
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: if you run this back and he has his full

451
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 1: arsenal offensive line and has his quarterback, I think this

452
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: year would be a lot better towards the end. These

453
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 1: guys would have gained a lot more momentum as the

454
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,959
Speaker 1: season had went along. But you know, I'm not very

455
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 1: critical of him now, just based off of all of

456
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: the changes that have happened with our offensive line and

457
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: also with the quarterbacks. Rob Yeah, I think you know.

458
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: I was watching they kind of shared a hug on

459
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: the sideline. Andy and Kellen did I think after that

460
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: last touchdown pass against Cincinnati, and it just I got

461
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 1: to think it, Who's who's older in this situation, and

462
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: I looked it up and it's Andy Dalton's like a

463
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: few months older than Kellen Moore. He's been in the

464
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,400
Speaker 1: NFL longer than Kellen Moore by one year, I think,

465
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: And so I think sometimes you forget just how young

466
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: and early in his career Kellen is. And so, yeah,

467
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: I haven't been perfect, there's no question about that. I think.

468
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 1: You know, if there's a criticism of Kellen is probably

469
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: that he gets to pass happy. But I think there's

470
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 1: been situations this year where the turnovers were just so

471
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: crazy early in the season that you know, you had

472
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: Dak throwing forty fifty times a game in consecutive games,

473
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 1: and that's just that's not I don't even think that's

474
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: the way Kellen wants to play. I think they've gotten

475
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 1: with Andy kind of entrenched as the backup filling in

476
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: for Dak, and they've been able to stay closer in

477
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 1: some games. They've gotten more of the balance they want

478
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 1: to have. I think when you go when Kellen Moore

479
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,360
Speaker 1: looks back, when he's a head coach down the road,

480
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: and he will be a head coach somewhere at some

481
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 1: point in his career, He's probably gonna look back at

482
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: this season as being one of the most beneficial seasons

483
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: for his career ever because of what you guys mentioned

484
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 1: four quarterbacks, basically having to change game plans and week

485
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 1: to week based on what your quarterbacks shrinks are. So

486
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 1: I think that's valuable experience for him, not only for

487
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 1: next season, but for you know, his career down the line. Yeah,

488
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: that's that's good points, Robert. I totally agree. Um, he's

489
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:06,959
Speaker 1: he's coming a long way. Um, he's had his ups

490
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: and down. It's just like any coach. He's probably had

491
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 1: a little bit more lows and in the eyes than

492
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 1: that you will want. But I think that just comes

493
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 1: from the inexperience that you just mentioned. You know, you're

494
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 1: talking about, you know, trying things outside of himself, trying

495
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: things outside of our our our dna. Um. You know,

496
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 1: I think he's grown in the form of becoming content

497
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: with just moving the chains. I think that's something that

498
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 1: was a challenge for him, and I think that's something

499
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: that he's kind of grasping, Um that it's okay to

500
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 1: just move the chains. It's okay to sustain drives and

501
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 1: have long drives. You just want to finish him off

502
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,440
Speaker 1: in the red zone. So I think where you know,

503
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: you saw that progress last week we started having some

504
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 1: longer drives and we started eating up some clock. Now

505
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: it's just a matter of just kind of, you know,

506
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 1: continue to build on that, on that momentum and now

507
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 1: in things with a with a touchdown instead of you know,

508
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: trying to kick these field goals. But I think I

509
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 1: think he's I think he's definitely grown in that in

510
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: that arena, because if we saw earlier in the season,

511
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: even midway through the season, you know, triple quadruple reverse

512
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: passes and all kinds of stuff, and he's always looking.

513
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: He's always looking for that big splash, you know. And

514
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: I think it's okay to be able to drip that

515
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: in from time to time, but you shouldn't be dependent

516
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:11,959
Speaker 1: on a big splash. Not when we're built the way

517
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: we're built. We have plenty of receivers to move the ball.

518
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: We have plenty of running backs to move the ball,

519
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: and it's just about moving the chains. And you have

520
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,119
Speaker 1: to kind of remind yourself as long as like it

521
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 1: these ten yards, we're good. We have a whole new

522
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 1: set of downs and be okay with that I really

523
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,640
Speaker 1: think timing played a big factor into it as well

524
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 1: of allowing your quarterback to have enough time to get

525
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: it out to your wide receivers. And I think early

526
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 1: on they may have over anticipated the amount of time

527
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 1: that Andy Dalton or Ben d Nucci and or Garrett

528
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 1: Gilbert had to throw the football. And I think they

529
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 1: did a nice job of turning that around and giving

530
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: those quarterbacks opportunities to find it into the hands of

531
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 1: those playmakers. Like you said, Isaiah, just trying to find

532
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: a way to give an opportunity for these weapons to

533
00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: make an impact. But whenever it comes to Allen Moore

534
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: and kind of the play calling, heckman, I know you

535
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: agreed with one of the points that Isaiah talked about,

536
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 1: and just finding different ways to get creative. That's kind

537
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: of where I'm at with it, is not the crazy

538
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 1: trick plays, but trying to kind of simplify it. And

539
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 1: I think kind of that's also what Rob was saying,

540
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: if this is beneficial because he's had to get creative

541
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: while keeping it simple at the same time. Yes, you

542
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 1: know you've heard the term kiss keep it simple stupid, right,

543
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: And that's what he's had to do with a lot

544
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:33,879
Speaker 1: of situations with what he's dealt with. But also you know,

545
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: the as you mentioned, Isaiah, if red zone efficiency has

546
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,959
Speaker 1: got to be the big knock on Kelly Moore's offense. Right,

547
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 1: We've we've gone over the years and we've looked at

548
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 1: the fact that our red zone efficiency is not that good.

549
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 1: Now this year twenty twenty, no one is gonna just

550
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 1: kind of brand that and say that's who you are.

551
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: You're weak in the red zone because of all the

552
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 1: changes that have happened to the front line. But we've

553
00:27:58,160 --> 00:27:59,919
Speaker 1: got to get better at that. Right when you're at

554
00:27:59,960 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 1: the three yard line and you cannot punch that thing

555
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 1: in and you have to go on the fourth and

556
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: one and throw at the back of the end zone,

557
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 1: that's just indicative of how week the offensive line has

558
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 1: been where we hadn't been able to just get that

559
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 1: one yard. So, you know, give him praise for that,

560
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 1: And like I agree with what Rob said, this has

561
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,919
Speaker 1: been a difficult gear and if this is grooming him

562
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: for anything in the future, it's just been the adversity

563
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: that he's had to face and changing his game plan

564
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: to fit the quarterback that he has every single week.

565
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 1: Speaking of changing whenever it comes to this Sunday's game.

566
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: It was no secret that they switched that game and

567
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: changed it from a primetime Sunday night football game to

568
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: the afternoon on CBS. They flexed the game out of

569
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football between the Cowboys and the forty nine

570
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 1: ers and they switched it to a noon kickoff. It

571
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: wasn't a secret to anybody not named Jalen Smith and Rob.

572
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: I want to know if you were on this call

573
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 1: yesterday with Jalen Smith, were you there? Yeah? Okay. So

574
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: with Jalen Smith's answer, there was one quote that stuck

575
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: out and it was picked up by a couple of

576
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: media outlets, but one it didn't really seem like he

577
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: didn't understand that the game had already been flexed. He

578
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: kind of seemed surprised by the fact that the game

579
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: was flexed to noon. But secondly, his quote, and i'll

580
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: read it off here just so I don't paraphrase, but

581
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: if the owner ain't trippin, We're good was the way

582
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: that he said it. In terms of are you upset

583
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 1: about are you embarrassed about this game being switched? His

584
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: quote was if the owner ain't trippin we're good. What

585
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: are your thoughts on that, Isaiah? I can see you

586
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: kind of working with your eyebrow there a little bit.

587
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 1: But why does that worry you? Either from a player's

588
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: perspective or just from a front office running the organization

589
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: type of perspective. I guess if he ain't tripping, we

590
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 1: ain't tripping. I don't. I don't know, man, I mean, yeah, yes,

591
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: I don't really have much to say about it. It's

592
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,239
Speaker 1: just just just go play some ball, man and make

593
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 1: some plays. I it really doesn't matter if you're playing

594
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: at nighttime. It doesn't matter if you're playing, you know,

595
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: at noon. Obviously, if you get bumped out of the

596
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 1: out of the premier spot, there's something that you're not

597
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 1: doing right. You're not gonna make the networks any money.

598
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,239
Speaker 1: So get your butt out the spot and go win

599
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: your games at twelve o'clock. Maybe the next week you'll

600
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: play a night game. I don't know, um, but you

601
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: know that's that should if anything, it should, it should

602
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: it should infuriate you as a player because you know

603
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 1: that you guys haven't done what you need to do

604
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: in order to be on primetime television. Rob. Yeah, I

605
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: mean I know I know it. It caught. It caught

606
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 1: fire on Twitter, right, people were. People were upset about

607
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 1: the comment. When when I heard it live, I didn't.

608
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 1: It didn't really hit me that way. And this whole

609
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 1: flex thing, it doesn't hit me that way either. I

610
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: look if if and the thing about like, in fairness

611
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,959
Speaker 1: to Jalen, multiple players have been asked about this thing

612
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: all week long, Zeke, Ceedee, lamb Andy, Dalton, you name it,

613
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: and and basically everybody's got the same opinion. It's like,

614
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: well that's when we play, doesn't doesn't like Isaiah said,

615
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, We'll just we're gonna go win the game.

616
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 1: I mean, let's be honest here, Like it obviously is

617
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: representative of a bad season. There's no question about it.

618
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 1: This has been a horrible season on so many levels.

619
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 1: But let's be honest here. If if both of these

620
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: teams had didn't have half their roster missing, this game

621
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: wouldn't have gotten flexed because both teams probably would have

622
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: had a couple more wins, be still kind of hanging

623
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 1: on in the division their respective divisions, and by no

624
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: means would this game have been flexed. But instead it's

625
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: it's being portrayed as this symbol of just chaos in

626
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: the organization and all that, Like, let's just tap the

627
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: brakes on that a little bit, you know. So I

628
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 1: just don't. I don't have the same reaction to it.

629
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously both teams have really underachieved, but there's

630
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: been other reasons for why they've underachieved. So and the

631
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: other thing too, is like I don't maybe Isaiah, maybe

632
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: I'm wrong here, but I do think players in some

633
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 1: respects don't look that far down the schedule and an

634
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: another opponent until it's the week go oh, what time

635
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 1: do we play? Okay? You know, so I think there's

636
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: probably some validity to that. Yeah, No, I mean that's

637
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: that's true, right, I mean, you don't look at it,

638
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 1: but but we're it's almost game time. I know you're right,

639
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: it's almost We got three play game here in a minute. Yeah,

640
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 1: I mean I think we're about forty eight hour rule

641
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 1: here coming up soon, getting so, um yeah, you want

642
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 1: to know what's how you're playing. That's not a big

643
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 1: deal to me, but um, I would be. I would

644
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: be irritated if if our time got bumped out, just

645
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: because in fact I know that we haven't done what

646
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: we need to do and in front of business from

647
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 1: and Jane's a businessman, right, He's a businessman. Um and

648
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 1: that's what this is a business It's a business move. Yeah,

649
00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: you know, it's a business move. What what what does

650
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: the network? What do they have to promote two teams

651
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 1: that aren't doing great? And on top of that, they

652
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 1: don't they don't have any highlights to show up like

653
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: their premier players that are balling out? Who who peoplere

654
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 1: gonn tune in to watch? Zeke's not playing like Zeke.

655
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 1: You know, Coop's doing being consistent, but he's not killing it.

656
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: You know, forty nine ers don't have anybody that's just

657
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: freaking going crazy. So what do they have to promote?

658
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: It's a business move. I'm not mad at it, and

659
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 1: you can't be. I mean, there's there's so much the

660
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 1: way that they set these games up and Cowboys and

661
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 1: Niners and the parody that goes into all of these matchups.

662
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: And I don't want to see the Jets and Jaguars

663
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: at a time on Sunday either, you know. So you're right,

664
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: Rob when you talk about our record and the amount

665
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 1: of guys that are hurt. Still, I just think We're

666
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: used to football players giving you football answers. You know

667
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 1: that sucks. You know we got flex. You want to

668
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: you want to hear a guy a little set about it.

669
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 1: But what Jalen says, you ain't. He ain't not tripping.

670
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 1: We're not tripping. This all good. It kind of rubs

671
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: you the wrong way because it gives the sense that

672
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: the guys is kind of blas the blog. So yeah,

673
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: you know, and that's the only thing I think that

674
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: people disagree with. But Taylan has taken so much criticism

675
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,399
Speaker 1: this year that you know he could see Mary has

676
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: a little lamb in someone. I would hate that. I

677
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:17,319
Speaker 1: know you would. Did it hits you different? I mean,

678
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,399
Speaker 1: did it am I off base here? I'm just maybe

679
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 1: I'm too blase about this. I think you brought it

680
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 1: up the right way. I really did. And that's the

681
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: reason why I asked the question is because you're right,

682
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,840
Speaker 1: A lot of people are painting this in the point

683
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 1: or in the light that there's there's turmoil in the organization.

684
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,879
Speaker 1: This is the mindset that every player shares because it's

685
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: the owner down and it's a top heavy problem. I

686
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 1: don't think that's the case here. I think this is

687
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: a guy who has been used to playing in primetime

688
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,399
Speaker 1: throughout his career. Because I remember going back and talking

689
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 1: to Gerald McCoy preseason whenever he was kind of getting

690
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 1: into the Cowboys and he had just been signed, and

691
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 1: he was pumped because he had only played one primetime

692
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: game throughout his entire career a career, and this is

693
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: a pro bowler. This is a perennial all pro type

694
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: of player. In Gerald McCoy, he played one primetime game

695
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 1: and he had five on the schedule when we did

696
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,239
Speaker 1: the schedule release, and he was super excited about that.

697
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: So it matters. It ultimately matters, especially for players outside

698
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 1: of the Cowboys organization. It one hundred percent matters, because

699
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 1: you want your family to watch, you want everybody to

700
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 1: sit down, you want everybody to see this all happening

701
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 1: on primetime when you're the only game happening. And that's

702
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 1: not gonna happen this week, of course, because it ended

703
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: up getting flex. Jalen Smith's been on the Cowboys, He's

704
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 1: been one. He's been at Notre Dame, so I mean

705
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 1: throughout his whole career, high school on, he has been

706
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: nothing but primetime. Ultimately, whenever it comes to playing at night.

707
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 1: So this is probably the wrong guy to answer that question.

708
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,840
Speaker 1: First off, I don't think it's an organizational issue. I

709
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 1: think it's just a guy who's used to being in

710
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 1: that limelight. And it's kind of the way that he

711
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: answered it, and it rubbed a lot of people the

712
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: wrong way. But I see where he was coming from

713
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 1: and he's just been used to it previously. So no,

714
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: it didn't rub me the wrong way, Rob, But that's

715
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 1: kind of how I took it, and I wanted to

716
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 1: see where you got thought about it. But when we

717
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: come back here on Talking Cowboys, let's predict some games

718
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 1: and say it with your chest. Friday, we're gonna see

719
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 1: how far Isaiah fell back behind the pack, and we're

720
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: gonna talk about some Draft Kings players. When we come back,

00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,320
Speaker 1: in the ear. I see what you're doing that. I

761
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 1: was waiting for it. It's a symphony. It's a symphony

762
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 1: in my head. Okay, it's a little odd. Um. I'm

763
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 1: gonna push right past back and talking about draft I

764
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:59,240
Speaker 1: see that on an ad. Heck, I'm gonna cry so hard.

765
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: So here's a look at DraftKings. DraftKings is the official

771
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 1: DraftKings kicks this week full of the Cowboys. You've got

772
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott up at the top. And we talked about

773
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: Zeke earlier. Boys. I mean, if he plays, he could

774
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: have a big game against this San Francisco run defense.

775
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 1: Running the wide nines and there's a lot of room

776
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: in between the tackles to run and Zeke, as physical

777
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 1: as he is, that he could be tough to slow

778
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: down whenever it comes to the numbers that he's been

779
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,800
Speaker 1: putting up. Even this year, he's been putting up decent

780
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 1: fantasy numbers. I trust me. I've gone against him a

781
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 1: couple times in fantasy. But Amari Cooper is an interesting one. Rob.

782
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 1: Why could a'mari have a really big game this week?

783
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: Because he's fifty eight yards from a thousand baby good

784
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 1: time in his six year career, he needs fifty eight

785
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 1: yards and hey, he's been pretty consistent all year long.

786
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,839
Speaker 1: By the way, it's not impossible to get three one

787
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 1: thousand yard receivers. No, it's not. You know, we talked

788
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 1: about that a lot. I think Gallup would have to

789
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 1: average like one eighteen CD, like eighty something. But Amari,

790
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: he's gonna get there, and he may he may very

791
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: well get there on Sunday. You know, if they get

792
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 1: some zone looks from the forty nine ers, there might

793
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 1: be some soft spots, but obviously they've got some veteran

794
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 1: dbs that he's gonna have to go against. I like

795
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 1: his chances of getting to a thousand on Sunday well,

796
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 1: and throwing to him is Andy Dalton. And heckma, why

797
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 1: could Andy Dalton have kind of a breakout game for

798
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 1: DraftKings fantasy players this week? And you know what, if

799
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: Amara Cooper does get it is gonna be because of

800
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton. I gotta think Andy Dalton for getting me

801
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 1: Tree Kardashian. Anyway, last week, last week, last week, I

802
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 1: didn't think it would be three hundred and three touches,

803
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,879
Speaker 1: three touchdowns. But I think that this week he's gonna

804
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to get his receivers some touchdowns man,

805
00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:11,960
Speaker 1: and it's it's gonna be those the trio of receivers

806
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,399
Speaker 1: that we talked about gallat Coop. It's gonna be our

807
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,360
Speaker 1: guys in Lamb. So if getting those short passes getting

808
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 1: down in the red zone, his efficiency is going to

809
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 1: be needed for the Californs to get a victory. And

810
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 1: everybody knows what we're playing for. So no better time

811
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 1: than Andy Dalton to pull out the red rifle will

812
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 1: be this Sunday. So I'm going with Andy Dalton. All right,

813
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 1: really quickly here, Isaiah Tony Pollard. What can he bring

814
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 1: to the table at just fifty two hundred Tony Pollard

815
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 1: with a discount? Double check, y'all, make sure you guys

816
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 1: grab Tony Pollard because versus this defense of the forty

817
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 1: nine ers and their wide nine defensive end schemes, Okay,

818
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,400
Speaker 1: there's gonna be plenty opportunity for him to sneak up

819
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 1: in between the guard and the tackle and get up

820
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 1: on that second level and maybe even the third level,

821
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 1: and he might go all the way. Tune in for him,

822
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,279
Speaker 1: and especially if Ezekiel Elliot's still kind of dealing with

823
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 1: that calf injury, that he could be a huge fantasy

824
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 1: pick up this week running the football. Okay, time to

825
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,240
Speaker 1: say it with your chest. It is a Friday as always,

826
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,400
Speaker 1: and I gotta be very quick about this. But just

827
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,240
Speaker 1: basically last week Rob had a really good week, Heckma

828
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 1: had a really good week, and Isaiah and I had

829
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,320
Speaker 1: really bad week. So Rob has a thirty six and

830
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,480
Speaker 1: twenty record. He is still up ahead of Heckma, but

831
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 1: only one game back. Mister Harrison lurks in the distance

832
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 1: to try and that spot. Then you go all the

833
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 1: way down to the bottom and there's Isaiah and I

834
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,759
Speaker 1: both at twenty nine and twenty seven. So we are

835
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 1: now a total of seven games back from Rob after

836
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 1: what was just a awful week. Lass. Hey, ka, I

837
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,719
Speaker 1: guess what's up. We ain't tripping. We ain't tripping, So

838
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: we go. Okay, here we go. First game. Gotta be

839
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 1: quick here. We're probably gonna go over time, but I

840
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 1: want to try and get through a bunch of games here,

841

Speaker 1: all right. Bears versus vic Kings, both teams at six

842

843
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,400
Speaker 1: after starting the season one and five. Heck, but you

00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 1: there as well. I just don't think that's gonna happen.

862
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,279
Speaker 1: All right, jetson Rams. Now, I'm just kidding. We're not

863
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:37,319
Speaker 1: picking that game. Chiefs versus the Saints. Drew Brees is back,

864
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 1: and this is actually one of the top win percentage

865
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 1: is combined out of a week fifteen or later game

866
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 1: in NFL history. The Chiefs, it's twelve and one in

867
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:49,400
Speaker 1: the Saints at ten and three. Kansas City's won ten

868
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:53,719
Speaker 1: straight road games, longest active streak in the NFL. I'm

869
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: gonna pick the Saints at home to end that streak.

870
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: Drew Brees comes out, has a pretty fantas asked the game,

871
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:02,800
Speaker 1: and New Orleans comes out with a win against Patti

872
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:12,759
Speaker 1: Mahomes and company. Rob Pat Mahomes, Chiefs, Mahomeboy all day

873
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:19,240
Speaker 1: guns up, Isaiah Tire Reek Hill. Okay, so not Mahomes

874
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 1: but tyreek Hill. Okay. So now we're just picking players.

875
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 1: We're not even talking about teams specifically anymore. All right,

876
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:29,680
Speaker 1: Final one, Brown's on the road against the Giants at

877
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 1: MetLife Stadium. Five and eight, Giants nine and four Browns

878
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 1: Cleveland's Mayfield seven and one versus non divisional opponents this season.

879
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: One of those was against the Cowboys. Isaiah Cleveland Cleveland. Heckma,

880
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:51,279
Speaker 1: I got Cleveland and this one as well. Okay, Rob,

881
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 1: Cleveland rocks. Yeah, I'm gonna take Cleveland there as well

882
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 1: and make it a clean sweep. This is not the

883
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,240
Speaker 1: game to be gaining or the week to be gaining games,

884
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:06,880
Speaker 1: all right. Final one Cowboys forty nine ers. Cowboys have

885
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:11,480
Speaker 1: won five of the last six games against San Francisco.

886
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 1: And since Rob, you're trying to protect the lead, and

887
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,360
Speaker 1: since you have the lead, we're gonna let you go

888
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 1: first on this one. Cowboys forty nine Ers from AT

Speaker 1: and T Stadium at noon on CBS. You know, Kyle,

890
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:29,319
Speaker 1: you turned me around this week. I wasn't feeling good

891
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 1: about this game. But you know, the forty nine ers

892
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 1: are missing so many guys, and Kyle Shannon said they'll

893
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,439
Speaker 1: start with Nick Mullins might change during the game. I'll

894
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,320
Speaker 1: go with the cow I think. I said the Cowboys

895
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,040
Speaker 1: will win two of their last three, so I'll pick

896
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 1: this is one of those two. I'll pick the Cowboys

897
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:52,319
Speaker 1: twenty three twenty wow. Uh, who's next? You go next?

898
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:57,839
Speaker 1: And I'll go and Isaiah will round it out. All right, Well,

899
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,160
Speaker 1: the Cowboys need to get some get back. They've been

900
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:03,880
Speaker 1: trying to do it all season versus a zone run scheme,

901
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,880
Speaker 1: and as Aldan Smith quote it, this week, we suck

902
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 1: and I don't know how to go off of that too.

903
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,880
Speaker 1: To pick the Cowboys this week, guys, I'm gonna go

904
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 1: with the forty nine ers. Wow, going with the forty

905
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:23,839
Speaker 1: they finally Yeah, championship Plaza. The Cowboys have been outscored

906
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 1: one hundred and seventeen to fifty seven in games following

907
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:31,920
Speaker 1: a win. That is a minus sixty point differential in

908
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:35,440
Speaker 1: three games. Three games, That's what the score has been.

909
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 1: And the big fact this week, Yes, I'm gonna take

910
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:40,960
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers in this one. I just think

911
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,680
Speaker 1: that one. I'm still angry with the Cowboys and that

912
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:48,320
Speaker 1: probably won't subside until twenty twenty one. But outside of that,

913
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys are the better team and they

914
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,239
Speaker 1: should get a win. Plus I picked against them last

915
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 1: week at the Cowboys one, and I was happy about that.

916
00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:57,480
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna pick the forty nine ers and hoping

917
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:00,040
Speaker 1: for a little bit of that reverse psychology again in

918
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:06,120
Speaker 1: here in Week fifteen, Isaiah, Cowboys match their physicality, Cowboys win,

919
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 1: Cowboys win. So all right, So Robin Isaiah on the

920
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,919
Speaker 1: same same boat for the first time in a long time.

921
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 1: But that's gonna do it here for us on Talking Cowboys.

922
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,719
Speaker 1: Glad you've been with us here over the last five days.

923
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 1: We'll be back on Monday as always to break it down,

924
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 1: win or lose, but make sure in tune in CBS

925
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,520
Speaker 1: at noon on Sunday. Kevin Harland, one of my favorite

926
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,879
Speaker 1: play by play announcers on the call for that one,

927
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:36,280
Speaker 1: but for Chris Beam, for heck My Harrison, for Rob Phillips,
