Speaker 6: gonna happen this Sunday. We got to get caught up

19
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 6: on some injuries. Man, there's some real, real concerns the

20
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 6: Cowboys are dealing with heading into this game. We'll tell

21
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 6: you what we think is going to happen from the

22
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 6: standpoint of some of the matchups in this game. Amber's

23
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 6: got some questions for us. In the second segment, and

24
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 6: then the final segment of the show, we're going to

25
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,559
Speaker 6: focus in on the NFC, talk a little bit about

26
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 6: some of the scenarios where the cow Man they're looking

27
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 6: like nobody wants to play, right, But we're gonna talk

28
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 6: about some of those scenarios in NFC and where teams

29
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 6: are lining up, and how this thing is going toward

30
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 6: the end, and give you some of the ideas of

31
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 6: there's so many games this weekend that the Cowboys will

32
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 6: have a vested interest in. So we'll lay some of

33
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 6: that out for you.

34
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 5: Guys.

35
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 6: You know how you should be rooting if you're rooting

36
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 6: for the Cowboys. So let's get this thing going. Let's

37
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 6: jump right in. Let's talk about first injuries we got

38
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 6: Tyron Smith and Zach Martin. I think those are the

39
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 6: two that everyone's really paying attention to. What are we

40
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 6: hearing at this point?

41
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 5: All right, so ladies and gentlemen, bear with me. I

42
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 5: am back. I'm feeling better, but my voice is still

43
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 5: somewhere in hell. I'm waiting for that to join us

44
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 5: injury wise, Tyron Smith and Zach Martin, like you said

45
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 5: in hearing what Jerry Jones on General Menal j Jerry Jones,

46
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 5: A head coach Mike McCarthy said in their conversations, with

47
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 5: one O five three the fan this morning. It's not

48
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 5: a lot of optimism. Mike said that Zach is ahead

49
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 5: of Tyrann as far as the possibility of playing against

50
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 5: the Dolphins, But based on some conversations I'm having and

51
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 5: it being a reaggravation of that quad contusion, it's not

52
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 5: exactly looking like sunshines and the rainbow. So I'd put

53
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 5: Zack at about a fifty to fifty, maybe a little

54
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 5: bit less than fifty. I'm completely pessimistic on if Tyron

55
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 5: Smith is going to take the field at all, and

56
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 5: then that puts you again in an offensive line flux

57
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 5: and then against a defensive line that is that excels

58
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 5: at getting pressures and getting their hands on the quarterback.

59
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 5: So if one or both of those guys are out,

60
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 5: and it looks like it's possible that one or both

61
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 5: of them will be out, then you're really gonna have

62
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 5: your hands full up front.

63
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's this morning.

64
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 7: They were saying that, especially with Tyrann, they're gonna carry

65
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 7: that thing all the way up until the very last minute,

66
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 7: is all that. And I was asking about, you know, Sunday,

67
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 7: and they're like, we're gonna give them.

68
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 3: Every possibility every minute.

69
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 7: So yeah, hold your breath on that when whatever football

70
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 7: gods you pray to go.

71
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:04,639
Speaker 3: Ahead and go for it.

72
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 7: So but yeah, the thing with Martin, we we interviewed

73
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 7: Zach yesterday one.

74
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 3: Five three the Fan first Week Interview. Thank you.

75
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 7: He's after we stopped asking about how to put Christmas

76
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 7: toys together, then we started getting the nuts of bolts

77
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 7: of football, and uh.

78
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 3: You know, he's always going to tell you he's fine.

79
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 7: He's always going to tell you that, hey, I'm good

80
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,119
Speaker 7: to you know, everything's good and all that.

81
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 8: Uh.

82
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 7: But like Patrick says, I think that these both are

83
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 7: are we're looking at probably maybe Martin with the chance that.

84
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 7: I don't think that the Tyron Smith one is going

85
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 7: to work out for you this game. I just just

86
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 7: just talking. I mean, when you start to talk about

87
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 7: the very last minute, We've seen the very last minute

88
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 7: before with Tyron Smith and it's gone the bad way.

89
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 7: So uh, I hate to be the wet blanket guy here,

90
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 7: but man, that that's that's gonna be a tough one

91
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 7: to deal with.

92
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, whether right or wrong, I think that the natural

93
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 6: inclination for all fans or bystanders who've wont to the

94
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 6: Cowboys for the last several years.

95
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: The history tells us.

96
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 6: That when you get into this kind of situation with Tyrant,

97
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 6: the likelihood is that you probably out more on you

98
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 6: fall more on the side that he's probably not gonna play.

99
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 6: But you just don't know, and we'll wait and see

100
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 6: until Sunday. But that being said, across the table, you guys,

101
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 6: tell me, what's your level? How much does this change

102
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 6: your thoughts on where you were on the Cowboys possibilities

103
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 6: of going to Miami and getting a win.

104
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 2: I'll start you a lot.

105
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 8: I mean, I'm hoping for a win, but it's just

106
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 8: it really complicates things because you come out of the

107
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 8: loss against Buffalo where the offense wasn't able to really

108
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 8: perform at a level that you expected them to or

109
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 8: wanted them to, and you talk about the O line

110
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 8: and the running game, how we started seeing an incline

111
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,039
Speaker 8: in that they started getting better. Now, any type of

112
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 8: injury happening there, that's gonna take a hit and it's

113
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 8: going to affect their running game. Now that's kind of

114
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 8: taken out of the equation for me, because I don't

115
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 8: see it working very well if both of them are

116
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 8: out or even one of them. The key for me

117
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 8: in this game would be for Dak to go back

118
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 8: to that quick, quick, quick get maybe take a few

119
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 8: steps back, get rid of the of the ball very

120
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 8: very quickly, and connect with the receivers everyone's going to

121
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 8: have to be on at the same pace and connect

122
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 8: it and know exactly what the route is, what the

123
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 8: call is, what the plan is, and hope that they're

124
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 8: in sync, because that's the only way that I see

125
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 8: it right now knowing about these injuries. Even if they

126
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 8: were to step on the field and play, that doesn't

127
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 8: mean they're one hundred percent healthy. They're still banged up

128
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 8: and they're still affected with these injuries. So regardless, I

129
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 8: think for me, yeah, it changes what I think of

130
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 8: the outcome maybe, but I have hope holding on to

131
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 8: that stat of them playing really, really good after a

132
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 8: loss and also hoping that the offense starts clicking again

133
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 8: where Dak can just get rid of the ball very quickly.

134
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 3: Had an advantage. You had an advantage if you're healthy.

135
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 7: You have an advantage because they're really banged up on

136
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 7: their offensive line, and you were hopeful that maybe that

137
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 7: your defense would be able to take advantage of that.

138
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 7: They're still dealing with Robert Hunt and Austin Jackson being hurt.

139
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 7: So now it kind of if you lose two guys,

140
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 7: they lose two guys. Now it's going to be a

141
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 7: battle of which backup group can find ways to block,

142
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 7: you know, really good defensive lines, especially with you know,

143
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 7: with dealing with Bradley Chubb and and Wilkins and that crew.

144
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: I mean, they could present some.

145
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 7: Problems, but you got better backups right now, I would

146
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 7: say the Cowboys do that. That would be where I

147
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 7: would go right now when you talk to talk about

148
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 7: bass and a dooga, I think it's better than what

149
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 7: I'm seeing with you know, with with what the Dolphins

150
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 7: have thrown out there. But the Dolphins do a really

151
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 7: good job of scheming around the deficiencies they have in

152
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 7: their offensive line.

153
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 3: They don't ask.

154
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 7: Those guys to do a whole hell of a lot,

155
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 7: you know, from what I was seeing, it's a lot

156
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 7: of angle blocks, a lot of half man blocks. Uh,

157
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 7: never have to take anybody on toe to toe.

158
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 3: You know.

159
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 7: Their scheme is built that way. The way they run

160
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 7: the ball, they are a perimeter running team, and so

161
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 7: everything is about movement and pulling and trapping and so

162
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 7: it's it's not asking them to just go out there

163
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 7: and just blow guys off the line of scrimmage.

164
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 3: They just don't play that way.

165
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 7: I think Dallas has the better group, but I'm interested

166
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 7: to see which offensive staff schemes better in this game

167
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 7: to get there to manufacture offense when they're compromised on

168
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 7: their offensive lines.

169
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 5: Cowboys are going to have to learn from what the

170
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 5: Arizona Cardinals tell them. Yeah, you go back and look

171
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 5: at the Arizona Cardinals film, and you know that's what

172
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 5: you draw from. As far as what you need to

173
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 5: do against the Miami Dolphins, as far as supplanting or

174
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 5: trying to supplant Tyron Smith and Zach Martin, It's not

175
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 5: going to be an easy task at all, especially against

176
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 5: this defensive front. But I'd love Ambar's point. You got

177
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 5: to get the ball out quickly. Don't put your offensive

178
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 5: line in position and includes Chunmaydoga and likely TJ. Bass.

179
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 5: Don't put those guys in position where they have to

180
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 5: do a ton of pass pro against some of the

181
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 5: better pass rushers in the league. Get it out quickly.

182
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 5: The Dolphins love to run zone. They run zone assuming

183
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 5: they do it because I'm always traumatized by what the

184
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 5: forty nine ers did with flipping that switch. But assuming

185
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 5: that the Dolphins remain true to what they've been doing,

186
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 5: which is running zone three out of every four defensive snaps,

187
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 5: you're going to have the spacing there to get that

188
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 5: ball out. So get the ball out, get it into

189
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 5: the hands of your playmakers. Move CD Lamb around, Move

190
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 5: Brandon Cooks around, get Cavante Turpin involved, use Jake Ferguson

191
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 5: to attack that second level and attack the seams with

192
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 5: the linebackers applying pressure to the safety. They run a

193
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 5: lot of single high as well, and that should help

194
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 5: the passing game open up a little bit more with

195
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 5: which then should make things easier for Tony Pollard recalled

196
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 5: out on the run game because quite as it's kept.

197
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 5: While the home and away splits are massive when it

198
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 5: comes to like penalties, types of penalties, passing yards, things

199
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 5: like that, the running game, the rushing attack has been

200
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 5: pretty steady. I think four point one yard average per

201
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 5: handoff on the road, four point two at home. So

202
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 5: if you can get out to a fast start, and

203
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 5: that's going to come down to getting that ball out quickly,

204
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 5: get out and score play from play ahead. That running

205
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 5: game should be your steady hand going forward. You're probably

206
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 5: not gonna get a lot of shots downfield without tiring

207
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 5: exact there.

208
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 6: Well, I'll say the thing that concerns me most about

209
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,439
Speaker 6: that strategy is last week they faced another team that's

210
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 6: similar to this one in the way that they get

211
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,199
Speaker 6: a four man pressure. They can have seven out in

212
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 6: coverage and when they're playing zone with seven. By the way,

213
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 6: they're pretty good playing zone with seven, it flogs everything's.

214
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 3: Up and the traveler too.

215
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, yeah, they got to travel to time.

216
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 6: It just makes it really I think it makes it

217
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 6: really tough, whether you're talking about a quick passing game

218
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 6: or a passing game where you can try to that

219
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,839
Speaker 6: the passes to let the routes develop. Either way, I

220
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 6: think it's going to be really tough for Dak built

221
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 6: to find those openings, especially if they're being able to

222
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 6: get pressure with four knowing that the Cowboys are compromise

223
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 6: on the offensive live. So I think that's really the

224
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 6: challenge for me. The key really gonna come down to,

225
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 6: can the Cowboys find a way to run the ball

226
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 6: that's gonna slow down those four pass rushers and give

227
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 6: you that time that you need in order to really

228
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 6: find those big plays, because this offense is predicated on

229
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 6: the big plays. When they play well, when they're playing

230
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,439
Speaker 6: at their best, they got big plays involved. They're gonna

231
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 6: need those, I think, and the running game is the

232
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 6: only thing I think that's going to get them there.

233
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 5: And the only way you're gonna be able to do

234
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 5: that is if your defense bottles up guys like Tyreek Hill,

235
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 5: jay Lenwato kind of gets hands on tour rattles him

236
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 5: as much as possible. Because if you allow the Dolphins

237
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 5: to do what the Bills did, which is get up

238
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 5: on you, and largely because of self inflicted wounds, but

239
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 5: however it happens. If you allow the Dolphins to get

240
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 5: up on you early playing from behind Againstille, game's gone, right,

241
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,439
Speaker 5: running game's going and you're down to starting offensive lineman,

242
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 5: you're in trouble.

243
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's gonna be the thing that scares me about

244
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 7: this game a little bit, as who the official.

245
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:06,199
Speaker 3: Is with Sean Hockey, you know, and and we all

246
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 3: are very.

247
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 2: Familiar with seen this before.

248
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 7: We've seen Sean Hockey insert himself and his crew.

249
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 3: Into into games.

250
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 7: And that's the that's the thing that that's always terrifying

251
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 7: to me. I mean just looking through his the metrics

252
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 7: with him, he's had he's had multiple games where it's

253
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 7: eighteen penalties, fifteen penalties, fourteen penalties. You know, you just

254
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 7: never know what you're gonna get. You're gonna get calls,

255
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 7: but you don't and it and it's at the worst

256
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 7: time with this, I just you know, I've always one

257
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 7: of these guys, just let him play, let the two

258
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 7: teams figure it out. But you've got a guy that

259
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 7: likes to put himself.

260
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 3: In the middle of the game.

261
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 7: And you know, I'm not trying to make excuses for

262
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 7: either team here, but it is what it is. You know,

263
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 7: sometimes you're at the mercy of these guys and uh,

264
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 7: you know that's the that's the unfortunate part of the

265
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 7: thing that you know, you didn't draw a crew this

266
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 7: week that's probably gonna let you play. You're gonna get

267
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 7: one that's gonna called the game probably pretty tight. And

268
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 7: and you know who will have an advantage of that.

269
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 7: Cowboy is one of the most penalized teams in the league.

270
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 7: I think the Dolphins are up there too, So.

271
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 6: I would love to see if this is the week

272
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 6: would maybe maybe Michael Parsons gets a call like that's

273
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 6: ridiculous that he hasn't gotten any of these holding calls.

274
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:18,719
Speaker 2: Maybe this is a week where he gets some of those.

275
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, well it's it's it's you know, like I said,

276
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 7: you just don't know what these crews and had a

277
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 7: holding call against him since since the Chargers game. You know,

278
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,079
Speaker 7: that's how far back that thing goes. But and and

279
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 7: and they've got a compromised offensive line like you do

280
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 7: right now, So there's going to be some holding in

281
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 7: this game.

282
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 3: Don't don't. Don't act like it's not gonna happen.

283
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 2: What are we hearing about Malie Cooker? Have we heard

284
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 2: anything more about it?

285
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 5: He's progressing, Obviously, he missed last week because of the illness.

286
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 5: He didn't practice as they gave him and his ankle

287
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 5: some rest on Wednesday. But he did practice in a

288
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 5: limited participate as a limited participant on Thursday. So he's

289
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 5: taking on more work. We'll see what today Friday's injury

290
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 5: report looks like for him, but he's tracking toward taking

291
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 5: the field, and uh, that would be you know, big one, Tomas.

292
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 5: He played solid. He had I think two or three

293
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 5: missed tackles before the most part, given the fire that

294
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 5: he was thrown in. In a situation he was thrown in,

295
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 5: it was much more run support than coverage because Josh

296
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 5: Allen only threw fifteen times. But yeah, mon Lee Cooker

297
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:13,839
Speaker 5: is tracking toward taking the feud.

298
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 6: All right, we're gonna take our first break. We'll come back.

299
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 6: Amber has some questions for us.

300
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 8: All right, I can't smile.

301
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 2: No, I'm just wondering, like, Okay, we're gonna come back.

302
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 2: AMA's got some questions for us and uh, and we'll

303
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 2: get to those. We'll hopefully have a good time here.

304
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 2: In the second segment, Move Back Dallas Cowboys dot Com.

305
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 9: Radio, Todd thought it would be secure to jog in

306
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 9: the cheetah Savannah. Todd believed the big cat repellent he

307
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,719
Speaker 9: bought online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to

308
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 9: be faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles

309
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 9: per hour. But the good news is Todd has at

310
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 9: and T five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure,

311
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 9: and he learned the best thing to do is stop

312
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,839
Speaker 9: running and toss her the backpack with the beef stew

362
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 8: so thank you to everyone who sent in their questions today.

363
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 8: All right, guys, what's more important for success in this

364
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 8: weekend's game? Offensive line dominates from the start? Or defensive

365
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 8: line dominates from the start? From the cowboy side, do

366
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 8: you prefer the offense to start off better the line

367
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 8: or the defensive line to start off?

368
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 3: Said offensive line twice?

369
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 6: No, both offense line or defensive line. I think defensive

370
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 6: line because the way I look at this game, it

371
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 6: goes back to what you said, Patrick. They cannot afford

372
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 6: to get down in this game, even if the offense

373
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 6: is slow getting started. As long as they don't let

374
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 6: Miami run away, then you could play a close game

375
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 6: and you can just kind of figure it out as

376
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 6: you go.

377
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 2: You cannot get behind.

378
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 6: If you get behind, we've seen how that goes, that's

379
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 6: not gonna be good.

380
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 5: Yeah. For me, it's defensive line. Defensive line has to

381
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 5: set the tone. Defense has to set the tone, especially

382
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 5: after a game like what happened to Buffalo, when you

383
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 5: basically just got mauled. So they need to get their

384
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 5: confidence back. They need to get their resist show you

385
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 5: the resilience, and they need to be what everybody believes

386
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 5: they can be. And you already know the Cowboys offensive

387
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 5: line might struggle a bit because they might be down

388
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,680
Speaker 5: two starters. This defensive line is going to have to

389
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 5: get it done.

390
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 3: Scoring helps this defense. Give me the offense.

391
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,679
Speaker 7: I'm putting pressure on, as much pressure as I can

392
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 7: on Miami. I'm gonna make them have to you know.

393
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 7: The one thing that I know is if I can

394
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 7: build a lead, hold a lead, that that dolphin running

395
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 7: game will go away, because it happens every single time

396
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 7: the Cowboys score for thirty points. Teams don't run the

397
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 7: football on them. And that's my biggest concern right now.

398
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 7: Give me the offense, come out blistering them right off

399
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 7: the jump. Give me one of those games where you

400
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 7: got three drives.

401
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 3: Give me. Give me the game that Buffalo had against

402
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:51,679
Speaker 3: you in the first half last week.

403
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 7: That's what I want, you know, twelve plays, seventy five

404
00:17:55,640 --> 00:18:00,360
Speaker 7: yard drives, wear them down, score points, you know, give

405
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 7: them a chance to have any offense.

406
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 3: I'll take that all day.

407
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 5: Real quick.

408
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 2: Before you go to the next question.

409
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 6: If you guys go back to earlier in the season,

410
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 6: there was there were some times when tyroing Zach were out.

411
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 6: What do you recall from that time from the standpoint

412
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 6: of how well the offense and I know some of

413
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 6: it was win before the offense turned into what it's

414
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,120
Speaker 6: but just looking at the offensive line, how the offensive

415
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 6: line played with those backups, what are your recollections.

416
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 8: The line wasn't really the problem, Like they played good

417
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 8: enough for them to have won a game or compete.

418
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,639
Speaker 8: So I don't going back, I don't remember us sitting

419
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 8: here complaining how the how about of a job they did?

420
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,879
Speaker 8: It was like, okay, for the backups, they actually held

421
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 8: up pretty good and they did a good enough job.

422
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 8: So I don't think the I mean, it's possible to survive.

423
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 8: It's basically one of yeah.

424
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 5: I mean, we ended up giving roses to Chimi Doga

425
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 5: for stepping up big. We gave Rosy better than we

426
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 5: thought he was exactly Guys like brock Hoffman, TJ. Best,

427
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 5: and Arizona, those guys stepped up after being thrown in

428
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 5: the fire. I don't think any of those. I don't

429
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 5: think the Arizona loss was on the offensive line. I

430
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 5: do think that it's hard for me to figure out

431
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 5: if the offensive line flux was part of the reason

432
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 5: that the offense didn't take hadn't taken off quite yet

433
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,199
Speaker 5: kind of times up that it took off when the

434
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 5: offensive line kind of came together, right, So that, Yeah,

435
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 5: I don't like where that goes. If that's why you're

436
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 5: making their face, I get it. But yeah, I mean

437
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 5: I think that the offensive line was not will cost

438
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,679
Speaker 5: you the game in Arizona, and if you look at

439
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 5: any of those losses of San Francisco as well, I mean,

440
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 5: the offensive line didn't cost you that game either, You're

441
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,919
Speaker 5: passing defense cost you that game. George Keittle gets three touchdowns,

442
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 5: I mean that's game over. So yeah, I mean I

443
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,879
Speaker 5: think this offensive line can hold up well. But I

444
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 5: mean we'll see because again they got horses up front. Yeah,

445
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 5: that's the big thing. That's the big thing. Just self

446
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 5: inflicted wounds and just don't hockily and the officials there

447
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 5: are going to be some bad cause and bad no calls.

448
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 5: Just don't exacerbate the problem by you know, running into

449
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 5: the past and when you don't have to, you know,

450
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 5: trying to I want you to protect your quarterback, but

451
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 5: unnecessarily bumping that we talked about. Just careful because you're

452
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 5: in hostile territory. You can't afford any mistakes. Just keep

453
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 5: your emotional discipline where it needs to be and help

454
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 5: your team out.

455
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 7: I think the one thing that it's weird because I

456
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 7: felt like that his questions about his offensive.

457
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 3: Line affected his play calling in Arizona.

458
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 7: I felt like the weather affected his play calling, or

459
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 7: the threat of weather affected his play calling in Buffalo.

460
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 3: Yep, he's got to put that aside.

461
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 7: You know, he's played games now with these guys and

462
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 7: he has to say, you know what, last time, I

463
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 7: was too cautious the way I played. I'm not asking

464
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 7: you to go out there and sling it all over

465
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 7: the place and try and get your quarterback hurt. But

466
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 7: don't go into a shell with your offense. You know,

467
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,679
Speaker 7: trust that these guys can get the job done. You know,

468
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 7: I think Mike, maybe I don't know, maybe overthink it

469
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 7: a little bit there.

470
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 6: Didn't He wasn't there a game earlier this year where

471
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 6: he actually admitted after the game he said that he

472
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 6: called the game or Arizona was at Arizona. Yeah, and

473
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 6: so I'm like, yeah, that that's when you talk about Buffalo.

474
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 6: I actually, when I asked you guys the question yesterday

475
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 6: about weather, I actually thought that's where you guys were

476
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,439
Speaker 6: going to go, because I personally believe Mike called a

477
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 6: little different game because either the weather or because when

478
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 6: he thought the weather, they would do.

479
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,640
Speaker 7: They would they To me, and I'm not out here

480
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 7: watching practice every day, but to me, if you were,

481
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 7: I was wondering, Okay, is this a wet weather game

482
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 7: plan you're throwing at him right now?

483
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 3: You know? And and and.

484
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,679
Speaker 7: I think when the weather broke nice for him all

485
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 7: of a sudden, like, well damn. We worked on this

486
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 7: all week and it was not the creativity with the offense,

487
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 7: you know. And and I know it was seven drop

488
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 7: seven and rushed for I get that. But I've seen

489
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,159
Speaker 7: him call defenses or call plays against that and and

490
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 7: have some success. I don't overthink this. If there's two

491
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 7: guys out, don't overthink it. Go play football. You know

492
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 7: that's you've got guys. You got one of the best

493
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 7: quarterbacks in the league, got one of the best wide

494
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 7: receivers in the league, got one of the best tight

495
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 7: ends in the league'll go play football today.

496
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 5: You know, I don't. I don't think Mike went into

497
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 5: Buffalo thinking about the weather for the most part. And

498
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 5: the reason I say that is because before the Cowboys

499
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 5: first offensive drive, probably could have made that argument. But

500
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 5: when you see Dak drop back and go deep to

501
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,199
Speaker 5: Cooks to try to get a home run ball on

502
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 5: you know, one of the first players, they.

503
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:23,479
Speaker 3: Never went back to right.

504
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,159
Speaker 5: That's the right well, they never went back to it

505
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 5: because that's just the game started to get away from

506
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 5: them after that drive. Because on that drive you get

507
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,880
Speaker 5: the holding and you get no points, and then guess

508
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 5: what penalty On the next Bills drive, they score again.

509
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 6: So the game's not of reason for them not to

510
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 6: go back to the deep ball, especially if they saw

511
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 6: some success on the front like it was there. They

512
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 6: just didn't connect on it. And then, don't get me wrong,

513
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 6: that's a hard pass to connect on. But I just

514
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 6: felt like they they didn't do the things that we

515
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 6: were accustomed to seeing them do on offense. And it

516
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 6: left me to at least question whether Mike made some adjustments,

517
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 6: because he was like.

518
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 5: Ah, oh, far as adjusting, pulling back, as far as

519
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 5: versus walking into that game.

520
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 6: We know. What I'm saying is kind of going into

521
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 6: that game with as Brian was saying, like, I kind

522
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 6: of agree that maybe the game plan may have been

523
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 6: set up for them to thinking because as we saw

524
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 6: we got the Friday, we were the whole game. It

525
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 6: was going to rain the whole game. That's what we

526
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 6: went in thinking. And it makes me think that he

527
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 6: went into the game in the same way, like, Okay,

528
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 6: I need to protect my team knowing that this is

529
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:19,919
Speaker 6: going to be a game where whether we will.

530
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 3: Be a factor.

531
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 6: So here's how we need to call it in order

532
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 6: to make sure we don't put ourselves in bad situations,

533
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 6: rather than just going in and being like, hey, it's

534
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 6: actually not that bad. Let's just go right. And I

535
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 6: do believe it kind of affective, but that's just my.

536
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 5: Opinion, and I see where you're going with that. Where

537
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 5: I depart on that is because I just pulled back

538
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 5: up the opening Cowboys drive against the Cardinals, and the

539
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 5: first two plays were hand off to Tony Pollard, and

540
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 5: that's different from what we saw in Buffalo. First couple

541
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 5: of plays he takes the deep shot to Cooks. So

542
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 5: I think that to Mike's point after the Arizona Cardinals game,

543
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,919
Speaker 5: he was playing uber conservative against the Cardinals, but he

544
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,640
Speaker 5: started out the game being the exact optor is being

545
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 5: very liberal against the Buffalo Bills. Now, I will agree

546
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 5: that maybe after that, in an adjustment capacity, he probably

547
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 5: went back to being more conservative than they would have

548
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 5: liked to, maybe be where the base. Maybe he saw

549
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 5: that pass and was like, oh, well, the win on

550
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 5: this field is not going the fact that they didn't

551
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 5: Connet write. So that's what I mean. I think going

552
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 5: in he didn't have his scripted plays based upon the weather.

553
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 5: But then after seeing that bass Sell three yards past Cooks,

554
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 5: maybe at that point he was like, okay, maybe I

555
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,360
Speaker 5: should scale, but stick that. That's what I mean, that's

556
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 5: the difference. I think he went into Arizona being conservative

557
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 5: on purpose.

558
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 6: I do wonder if because he even admitted after the

559
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:35,439
Speaker 6: Arizona game, because of his compromise offensive line, he was

560
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,640
Speaker 6: more conservative. I wanted that'll push him to be less

561
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 6: conservative this game if he loses those offensive linemen and

562
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 6: be like, I gotta trust these guys. I went through

563
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 6: that in Arizona. I didn't give my chance, my team

564
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 6: the best chance to win. Maybe that helps him this week,

565
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 6: just say let's just go. We're gonna play football.

566
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 3: One question down, Where to go?

567
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 8: Derek got two more questions from that.

568
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 5: Damn good courch man.

569
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 6: When you're the host, you just gotta always fall back

570
00:24:58,080 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 6: at the being host, right, That a good question.

571
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:07,360
Speaker 8: Yeah, Bryan Woodward, he asks, do you see the Cowboys

572
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 8: staying with mainly men coverage against Miami? Especially if he'll plays.

573
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,120
Speaker 7: It wouldn't be it probably wouldn't be the best thing.

574
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 7: But that's who they are. That's who Dallas is. Dallas

575
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 7: Dallas is. They're comfortable. You know, they'll rush for they'll

576
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 7: rush five. They like to bring pressure. They like to

577
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 7: bring pressure on second down. Uh, you have a quarterback

578
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 7: that's really accurate in that near the line of scrimmage

579
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 7: or underneath if you play a lot of manned stuff.

580
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 7: You know they're big, they're fifty three percent of their

581
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,399
Speaker 7: offense comes run after catch. That's what you have to

582
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,919
Speaker 7: worry about here. You have to worry about everything, the

583
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 7: short passes and then them taking off with it.

584
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 3: And so is it in their DNA to play it

585
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 3: zone coverage? Sure? Would it throw the Dolphins a curveball? Sure?

586
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 3: I think the Dolphins are expecting to see man coverage

587
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 3: in this game.

588
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 7: I think I think Dan's thinking, like, I trust my

589
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 7: guys to be good enough this game. I'm gonna try

590
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 7: and get pressure on this guy. This quarterback doesn't move,

591
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 7: so you know, but the ball will come out quick.

592
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,160
Speaker 7: We saw it a the Jets game last week. He's

593
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,880
Speaker 7: not going to hold the football. That's that They're terrified

594
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 7: of what's going on with their offensive line too.

595
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 3: So I think this.

596
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 7: I think, to me, if you're playing zone, that means

597
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 7: you're playing with depth at depth, and I hate that

598
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 7: because all of a sudden and you got these guys there,

599
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 7: they get the ball and then it's run after catch.

600
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 7: I would rather die quick. Don't let me die slow.

601
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 7: Let me play up on the line. Let me try

602
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 7: and disrupt what they're doing, and maybe I can affect

603
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 7: the timing of this quarterback.

604
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 6: Here's what I worry about with man is it's not

605
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 6: even so much the deep routes that I worry about

606
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 6: with Tyreek Kill. It's those crossers where they rub and

607
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 6: he gets up.

608
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 2: Just a foot.

609
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 6: If he's got a foot, you ain't catching When he

610
00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 6: catches the ball, you're not catching him.

611
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 3: And that's where I'm like, hope, is his ankle ain't great?

612
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 3: That's what Joe.

613
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 2: But I will say this jump yeah, test that thing

614
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 2: before that.

615
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,399
Speaker 6: Before the game last week, there were reports that he

616
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 6: looked like he was running. He was running really well,

617
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,199
Speaker 6: but they were like, we're still gonna hold him out.

618
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 6: That's also what makes me think he's gonna be fine

619
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 6: for this week. They thought last week Hero I would

620
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,199
Speaker 6: guess if that would have been a playoff gamey Kill

621
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,680
Speaker 6: would have played last week. They were figuring, let's give

622
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 6: him one one week. We need him for a hundred

623
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,679
Speaker 6: one hundred percent close to it against Dallas. So I

624
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 6: expect him to be Tyree Kill this week. I don't

625
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,880
Speaker 6: expect him to have any ill anything that's coming from

626
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 6: that ankle.

627
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 2: I think he'll be fine. What challenge what I where.

628
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 6: I think the real challenge is is trying to carry

629
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 6: him across field, especially if you're having to run through traffic,

630
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 6: and I think that's just going to be I mean,

631
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 6: that is a recipe for disaster against a guy like him.

632
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 7: Well, see the thing about when you play zone that

633
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 7: way though, when they run the guys through, do you lose.

634
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 3: Track of where guys are?

635
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 2: And that can happen.

636
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 7: That's that's the thing with That's the thing I worry

637
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 7: about with Dallas because they don't play they don't play.

638
00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 3: They play zone.

639
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 7: But there I feel like they're better playing man. I

640
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,439
Speaker 7: feel like they're better if they they play man and

641
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 7: if Hooker can help them, if Hooker.

642
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 3: Lines up deep and he can read it, you.

643
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 7: Know, and we've seen we've seen teams play that cover

644
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 7: two look and then play with a robber, you know,

645
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 7: take the safety and drive it down, you know, drive

646
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 7: that safety, put the safety in the middle of the field.

647
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 3: That's how that's how the Cleveland.

648
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 7: Browns beat the forty nine ers with all the crossing

649
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 7: stuff that the forty nine ers do. They played man,

650
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 7: but they put a robber in the middle of the field,

651
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 7: so they it made that that that crosser have to

652
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 7: run a little bit. And all you're trying to do

653
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 7: is little longer hold. All you're trying to do is

654
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 7: make these guys hold the ball a little bit longer. Yeah,

655
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 7: because this quarterback when he holds the ball, though, like

656
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 7: I say, he's not gonna move. He's not gonna run

657
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 7: away from you. The quarterbacks you played the last two

658
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 7: weeks will run away if they see problems and he.

659
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 2: Will get down, like he's not gonna says he's gonna

660
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 2: get down.

661
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 3: He's gonna get down, So.

662
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 2: You get close to him, you can get him down.

663
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 5: Yeah.

664
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 3: So no, I see Dallas being who they are. I

665
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 3: just do.

666
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 5: I just feel like, if you're going to play man,

667
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 5: you better you better be damn good at at press

668
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 5: at disrupting at the line of scrimmage, disrupting those timing routes,

669
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 5: because we talked about it, too. Is trying to get

670
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 5: that ball out quickly, so his his passes are going

671
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 5: to be based on timing, and you have to make

672
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 5: sure that his man is not at the spot where

673
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 5: he's throwing, because he's not thrown to the man. He's

674
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 5: thrown to the spot he expects the guy to be.

675
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 5: So I like a matchup like Deron Bland. He's physical

676
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 5: and Tyreek Hill while he's you know, quick, speeding, He's

677
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 5: all of those things. Not necessarily the most physical guy.

678
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 5: You can disrupt him. Jaylen Waddow a little bit bigger

679
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 5: than Tyreek, but you can disrupt him. Jordan Lewis versus

680
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 5: Cedric Wilson, that'll be an interesting one because Wilson obviously

681
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 5: former cowboy. He's bigger than both of those guys on

682
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 5: the outside, but he doesn't necessarily have the speed. So

683
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 5: I think Jordan Lewis can handle Cedric Wilson. So if

684
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 5: you're going to press, if you're going to be do

685
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 5: man coverage, don't don't play man and space them like,

686
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 5: don't give them the space and man coverage that's just

687
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 5: a death sent which.

688
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 6: We see them do quite a bit. They're gonna have

689
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 6: to give that five to seven yard cushion.

690
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 7: You're gonna have to play run on the edge too,

691
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 7: And so you're probably in a situation if you're playing zone,

692
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 7: you're you know you're not. You're gonna have to commit

693
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 7: guys the box, you know, especially on the age, and

694
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 7: if you're playing if you commit guys to box, that

695
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 7: meets you're.

696
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 3: One on one on the outside. You can't play zone

697
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 3: that way. They're gonna have to play man.

698
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 5: Your linebackers are going to have to do damn well

699
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 5: in coverage this week, especially if you choose to go

700
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 5: to man, because if you choose to go to man

701
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 5: and you go press, then of course you guys are

702
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 5: at the line of scrimmage to try to disrupt. Once

703
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 5: those guys get off of those routes. Guess what, Now

704
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 5: it's on your linebackers. Now, your safety Molik, he's asked forward,

705
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 5: and that's good. You want him to play forward as

706
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 5: opposed to having to react backward to a play going deep.

707
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 5: But your linebackers, if you do man coverage, I would

708
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 5: suggest pressing. And if you then do press, your linebackers

709
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 5: better be damn good in coverage.

710
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 8: Well, speaking of linebacker, before we go to break, here

711
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 8: are these two questions. And sorry if I mess up

712
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 8: y'all's name, but I'm going to combine the two. First,

713
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 8: John Teba's he's asking about my leak Jefferson and saying

714
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,239
Speaker 8: how he has a good size, and he says that

715
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 8: he understands he might not be that good, but if so,

716
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 8: why have him on the practice squad? And then kermeen

717
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 8: Polo he's asking, do you guys think they're as a

718
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 8: linebacker on someone else's practice squad that they can use

719
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 8: for run defense? Basically, what can you possibly do right

720
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 8: now to address the linebackeration?

721
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 3: Is Jefferson out of elevations?

722
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 5: I can check for you right now.

723
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 3: I think I thought he was out of lay.

724
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, So they're in a situation right now that they

725
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 7: would if to get him on.

726
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 3: They would have to move somebody.

727
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 7: They'd have to take somebody off the roster to get

728
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 7: him on, and I don't think they're going to do that.

729
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 2: In my opinion.

730
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 6: The best way that they solve the linebacker issue for

731
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 6: the rest of this year's year at least, is they

732
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 6: got to get Hankens back, because I think if you

733
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 6: get Hankins back, that gives you a big body, as

734
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 6: you talked about last week, Brian, a big body that's

735
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 6: that can move laterally as well. I think that keeps

736
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 6: your linebackers cleaner than what we saw this last game,

737
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 6: because otherwise, I just don't know. I don't trust that

738
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 6: there's a guy on another team's practice squad that's going

739
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 6: to be any better than what you got, Like, I

740
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 6: just don't. I don't think if you got that guy,

741
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 6: even if you're bigger, if you don't have the skill

742
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 6: to still be able to move around offensive line and

743
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 6: they get to the second level, you're still gonna have

744
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 6: the same problem.

745
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 3: Right.

746
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 8: So I just think that we keep talking about having

747
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 8: that instinct of reaction, how.

748
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 3: Quick can you guess?

749
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 6: But how many guys on a practice squad have that

750
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 6: level of it? Like, right, you know, you're still talking

751
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 6: about guys that don't have the same level of skill

752
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 6: as a as a starting linebacker in the NFL. So

753
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 6: I personally believe you got to get Handkins back and

754
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 6: so you basically just steady the ship until you can

755
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 6: get him back, because otherwise I just don't know that

756
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 6: there's a better option from a personnel standpoint out there.

757
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, Malie Jefferson's played three games.

758
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's out in San Francisco.

759
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 7: In unless you put him on the active you have

760
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 7: you have to, You would have to elevate him. And

761
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 7: the one that would be interesting though is Evans, you know,

762
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:45,719
Speaker 7: and uh Rashad Evans that would be you know, and

763
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 7: we'll see how I watched the Green Bay game last

764
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 7: year where Michael was playing off ball linebacker the majority

765
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 7: of that game, and what they did was they took

766
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 7: Fouler and they took Armstrong on the right side, and

767
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 7: then they put Tank on the left and then Micah

768
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 7: played his off ball linebacker.

769
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 3: Early in the game, he was really.

770
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 7: It was it was good the way he played, and

771
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 7: then it turned into he's just playing so many snaps

772
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 7: he's having to rush and then he's having to play

773
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 7: off ball linebacker, and so it's you know, it's a

774
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 7: it's a it's a hard it's a hard game for

775
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 7: him that way.

776
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 6: So wait, are you saying that it wasn't necessarily about skill?

777
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 6: It was more about fatigue as the game.

778
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 3: I think I think the game.

779
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 7: I think he got tired as the game wore on

780
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 7: and they and what happens is that then the Packers

781
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 7: were able to get guys up on him. And when

782
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 7: Micah has problems is that.

783
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 3: He will he'll.

784
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 7: Jump around blocks and stuff like that. And you know

785
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 7: he's athletic enough to make plays that way, but you know,

786
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 7: the anticipation you got to play with it, linebacker. That's

787
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 7: why you've had such great ones here with the Cowboys,

788
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 7: that that wins. The Dexter coke Lees, the you know,

789
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 7: the Shawn Lee's, the Layton vander Eshes, those guys they

790
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 7: played with such instinct. They knew when they read a

791
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 7: formation that they were going to play. Okay, they're gonna

792
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 7: they're gonna do this. Well, they're running, they're half step ahead,

793
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 7: at full step ahead, you know, and right now you've

794
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 7: got guys that are safeties, that are trying to play

795
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 7: with instinct and try and read blocks that are you know,

796
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:08,760
Speaker 7: and it's been difficult.

797
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:09,840
Speaker 3: There's no question about that.

798
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 6: All Right, let's go and take our final break. We'll

799
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,200

Speaker 6: be back, Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio.

803
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 9: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

804
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 9: cheatah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought

805
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 9: online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to be

806
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,439
Speaker 9: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

807
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 9: But the good news is Todd has AT and T

808
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 9: five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he

809
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,799
Speaker 9: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

810
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 9: toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and

811
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:46,120

Speaker 6: Welcome back, final segment of the Break Life from the

855
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,399
Speaker 6: SWBC Mortgage studios at the Star. I got a couple

856
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 6: questions for you guys about the Dallas and Miami matchup.

857
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 2: Let's start first.

858
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 6: With the offensive side of the Ethan side. The ball

859
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 6: for the Cowboys outside of Tyreek Hill, which Miami offensive

860
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 6: player should Dallas be most concerned about.

861
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 5: I'm stuck here between Jalen Wattle and A Chain. So

862
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,759
Speaker 5: much focus is rightfully placed on Tyreek Hill that if

863
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 5: you place too much focus on him and you forget

864
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 5: what Wattle is capable of, he'll break the game wide open.

865
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 5: So I'm gonna go with Wattle on this one. I

866
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 5: think that it's easy, kind of low hanging fruit, and

867
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 5: it's justifiable low hanging fruit to look at the running

868
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 5: backs and most of the A Chain and say, oh, well,

869
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 5: look at what Cook did, And I get that, but

870
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 5: circumstances permitted that. Hopefully the circumstances don't permit and the

871
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 5: run defense can kind of do what it does. But Wattle.

872
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 5: Don't forget Wattle is absolutely I mean cause he's a

873
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 5: number one receiver on several teams that don't have Tyreek

874
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 5: Hill uh on the roster. So for me, it's gonna

875
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 5: be Wattle. Tyreek Hill obviously put a bottle on him

876
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 5: as much as you can anyway, but don't look away

877
00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 5: from Jalen Wattle, because the moment you do, it's a

878
00:37:58,880 --> 00:37:59,399
Speaker 5: big play.

879
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 7: Moster has got like twenty touchdowns. You know, he catches

880
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 7: the ball, he runs the ball, he's he's physical. I mean,

881
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 7: he's an all round player. He can run, Yeah, and

882
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 7: never comes off the field. Yeah, Waddle's great player. But

883
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 7: Moster is gonna make Moster makes this thing go.

884
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 3: They hand him the ball, toss him the ball, throw

885
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:20,240
Speaker 3: him the ball.

886
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 7: Yeah, you've got to find a way to knock him

887
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 7: around a little bit and not let him get going

888
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 7: this game, especially he gets down in the down that

889
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:28,359
Speaker 7: tight red zone.

890
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 3: You know, he just has a nose for the end

891
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 3: zone and stuff like that.

892
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 7: He's been outstanding this year, So I would worry about

893
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 7: him quite a bit going in this especially after what

894
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:37,800
Speaker 7: I saw last week against Buffalo.

895
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's exactly who I was going to say as well,

896
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 8: because he does two things that the Cowboys have shown

897
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 8: not to be great at and struggle with last week.

898
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 8: One stopping the run. What is he a running back

899
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 8: and runs? And two he can break tackles. Ye, what

900
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 8: are the Cowboys defense of what are they struggling with

901
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 8: right now? Tackling? They're having tackling issues. And like you said,

902
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 8: he's a physical player and he can break those tackles

903
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 8: and those are just two things. Running and tackles, all.

904
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:06,760
Speaker 2: Right, Flip it to the other side.

905
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 6: Which Miami defender should Dallas be most concerned about Ramsey.

906
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 7: Ramsey can eliminate your best player, your best receiver. He's

907
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 7: got that kind of a bill. He's playing at a

908
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 7: high level right now since he came back from injury.

909
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 7: It's a fifty to fifty proposition throwing the ball at

910
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 7: his direction. You know, he's one of the he's still

911
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 7: one of the best in the league when it comes

912
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 7: to challenging. He loves that. He loves the ability to

913
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,759
Speaker 7: go out and take your best receiver away. He'll play left,

914
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 7: he'll play right, he'll play in the slot. That just

915
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,799
Speaker 7: shows you that he doesn't care wherever you're gonna go.

916
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 7: He's gonna go.

917
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 3: I worry about.

918
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,959
Speaker 7: Him just completely eliminating Seedee Lamb from this game.

919
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 5: Bradley Chubb, the guy has almost ten sacks already. And

920
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,879
Speaker 5: we talked at the top of the show about the

921
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 5: likelihood that you won't have Tyrone Smith on the field,

922
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 5: So you better believe that Mike madonwel was going to

923
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 5: take try to take advantage of that matchup as often

924
00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 5: as he can. Cho is really going to have to

925
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 5: hold up and that's a tall task against a guy

926
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 5: like Bradley Chubb. So he's a game wrecker and if

927
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 5: you let him in that backfield to put hands on

928
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 5: a pressure Dak Prescott, then you're going to see a

929
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 5: lot of broken offensive plays. So for me, it's Bradley Chubb.

930
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 8: Well, after we got done talking about the O line

931
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 8: issues and health, a guy like Christian Wilkins. He's a

932
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,040
Speaker 8: guy that you know he plays like guard but also

933
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 8: can move and rush. So that's anybody on the defensive

934
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,319
Speaker 8: line at this point is a good guest for me

935
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 8: to be a struggle for this game against this Cowboys

936
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:32,880
Speaker 8: offensive line.

937
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 6: All right, so let's talk about the NFC and what's

938
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,560
Speaker 6: happening this weekend. There are a whole litany of games

939
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 6: that matter for the Cowboys because really, when you look

940
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 6: at the NFC East and who's going to win the division,

941
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 6: a lot of it comes down to this final or.

942
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:46,399
Speaker 2: Not the final type break.

943
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,359
Speaker 6: I think it's the fifth tie break, Yes, fifth, which

944
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 6: is a strength of victory. And so yeah, so I'm

945
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 6: gonna lay out for you right now, there are five

946
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 6: teams that the Cowboys really need to win and there

947
00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,880
Speaker 6: are five teams the Cowboys need to lose as they

948
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:03,360
Speaker 6: keep going through the season to help their strength to victory.

949
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,840
Speaker 6: And that's assuming both teams went out. I'm talking to

950
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 6: Cowboys and Eagles. So you got Buffalo, who the Cowboys

951
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 6: need to lose. They're playing at the Chargers. You need

952
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:15,439
Speaker 6: the Chargers to win. Convention says, that's probably not gonna happen,

953
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,720
Speaker 6: but that's where you're rooting. You're rooting for the Chargers.

954
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 6: You got green Bay playing at Carolina. Dallas needs Carolina

955
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 6: to continue to win or to win. They have not

956
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 6: continued to win because they haven't been winning much. But

957
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:27,399
Speaker 6: that's the team that you want to win.

958
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 5: There.

959
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:29,840
Speaker 6: Here's one that the Cowboys really need to win but

960
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 6: they actually have a chance of winning is Detroit. Detroit

961
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 6: goes to Minnesota. Dallas needs Detroit to continue to win.

962
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,879
Speaker 6: Washington at the New York Jets. The Jets are actually

963
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 6: the team that the Cowboys need to continue to win.

964
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 6: So you're rooting. It works out with your rooting interests.

965
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,279
Speaker 6: You hate the Washington Commanders, it's easy to root for

966
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,840
Speaker 6: the Jets. Root for the Jets to keep winning. Seattle

967
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,799
Speaker 6: another team the Cowboys want to continue to win. They'll

968
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 6: be at Tennessee. That's another game where you would think

969
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 6: they have a pretty good shot to win. And then

970
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,560
Speaker 6: you've got Jacksonville at Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay you want

971
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 6: to lose. Arizona, you want to lose at Chicago. And

972
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 6: then the final one Las Vegas. You want them to

973
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 6: beat the.

974
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 2: Chiefs in Kansas City.

975
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:10,880
Speaker 6: I don't know that's gonna work out, but that's how

976
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 6: your rooting interested go for the weekend. I want us

977
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 6: to pick the final three games that I think are

978
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 6: by the way most important to the Cowboys. Let's start

979
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:22,839
Speaker 6: first with Baltimore at San Francisco. An interesting matchup what

980
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 6: many people believe maybe the best two teams in the NFL.

981
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 2: How do you guys pick it?

982
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 5: You know what, Give me Baltimore this one. It'll be

983
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 5: a fight, to say the least. We know what San

984
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 5: Francisco is doing, we know how dominant they've been both

985
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,439
Speaker 5: on the road and at home. But we've also seen

986
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 5: Baltimore in these types of games step up and play

987
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 5: some big boy football, and they are as hell bent

988
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 5: on being the bully as any other team in the league.

989
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,080
Speaker 5: So I think Harball has them ready to go in

990
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 5: to San Francisco and take that one.

991
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 8: Where do they play at San Francis. I've been there,

992
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 8: done that, I know not crop I know not. Yeah,

993
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 8: I think I can see the forty nine ers very

994
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:14,160
Speaker 8: well coming off with the win, for sure. But it's

995
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 8: gonna be a really really good game to watch, actually,

996
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 8: very very competitive. So that's one of the ones I

997
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,879
Speaker 8: will definitely be watching. But I think forty nine Ers,

998
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 8: because they were playing at home, they end up with

999
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 8: a win.

1000
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 6: Right.

1001
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 7: Yeah, the Ravens feel like they're getting any respect at

1002
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 7: all for being as one of the best teams in

1003
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 7: the league. It's gonna be tough. They don't give up

1004
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 7: any points Baltimore, and they've got a quarterback that can

1005
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,359
Speaker 7: kind of cause some problems for you with you know,

1006
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 7: with the Ravens and stuff.

1007
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 3: Give me Baltimore in that one. I think Baltimore is

1008
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 3: one of the.

1009
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 7: Best teams in the National Football And by the way,

1010
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,880
Speaker 7: the Rams went there a couple of weeks ago and

1011
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:46,919
Speaker 7: almost won a game there, And so maybe the Rams

1012
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 7: are the second best team in the National Football right now.

1013
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 2: I'll tell you this.

1014
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 6: I just need somebody show me that San Francisco is

1015
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:52,359
Speaker 6: beatable when they.

1016
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 3: Have all their parts.

1017
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 6: So Baltimore, I'm hoping that Baltimore can can show us

1018
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 6: that New York versus Philadelphia. They're in Philadelphia for this game.

1019
00:43:59,040 --> 00:43:59,839
Speaker 2: Who wins.

1020
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 3: If Cutlers.

1021
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 7: If the Giants had beaten the Saints last week, I

1022
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 7: would have felt better about their chances Right now.

1023
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,399
Speaker 3: I feel like this Philadelphia gets back on the winning track.

1024
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 5: It's hard to it's hard to think that Philadelphia, even

1025
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 5: though they're on a slide. It's hard to think they

1026
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 5: lose four in a row. But then when you look

1027
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 5: at everything that's going on with them, and the commitment

1028
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 5: being questioned by Jalen Hurts and Sirianni admitting that he

1029
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 5: was playing for help from the refs, I mean that

1030
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 5: just tells you how dire straits there. Their secondary is

1031
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 5: without Darius Slay and I think Tommy Cutlets and day

1032
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,719
Speaker 5: Ball going to target Brad Berry and that that secondary,

1033
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 5: and I think New York goes in and upsets them.

1034
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 5: I think I think they do. It might be by

1035
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:42,919
Speaker 5: it might be by one point, but I think they're

1036
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:44,839
Speaker 5: going to upset them. I mean that secondary is toast

1037
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 5: just pass, pass and keep passing.

1038
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 8: I hope you're right, because I hope. But I mean,

1039
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 8: even though I do think the the Eagles are starting

1040
00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 8: to crumble and fall apart, I think it's just hard

1041
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,839
Speaker 8: to see them not beating the Giants right now. I mean,

1042
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,879
Speaker 8: but I hope the Giants win, but I will pick

1043
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:08,960
Speaker 8: the Eagles for this one.

1044
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1045
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:10,760
Speaker 6: I think it's a bounce back game for the Eagles.

1046
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 6: I think they get back on track. It might not

1047
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 6: be pretty, but I think they get the win. Final game,

1048
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,280
Speaker 6: Cowboys at Miami. Give me your pick and your score.

1049
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 5: We talked about this when I said the Cowboys messed

1050
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 5: up my two week prediction. Yeah, because I predicted that

1051
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 5: they take Buffalo. But then I predicted that because they

1052
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:33,120
Speaker 5: took Buffalo, they lose in Miami. But they lost in Buffalo,

1053
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,239
Speaker 5: And then it sticks me right where you are am

1054
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:38,239
Speaker 5: barred that they don't lose to in a row. I

1055
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 5: just keep coming back to that. There are so many

1056
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 5: reasons that my gut says the Dolphins will do this.

1057
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:44,960
Speaker 5: The Dolphins will do this, and the Dolphins will probably

1058
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 5: score points and this will be a hell of a game.

1059
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:50,319
Speaker 5: But the resiliencyeing this team in the McCarthy era, I

1060
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:54,399
Speaker 5: just I can't get over that. So until they lose

1061
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 5: to in a row, they haven't lost to in a row.

1062
00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 5: I don't think they do it this weekend. So Dolphin,

1063
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, Cowboys over Dolphins. But it comes down to,

1064
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,920
Speaker 5: you know, fifty five yard kicked by Butter Aubrey to

1065
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:05,479
Speaker 5: get it done.

1066
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,760
Speaker 3: So Dolphins twenty eight, Cowboys twenty.

1067
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,319
Speaker 5: Four, didn't give you a school twenty seven to twenty four.

1068
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,439
Speaker 3: Cowboys Dolphins twenty eight, Colways twenty four.

1069
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:20,560
Speaker 8: All right, my heart says one thing, my brain says another.

1070
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 5: So I went with this if I.

1071
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 8: Don't want to pick this game, because if I picked

1072
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 8: them to win and they lose, I'm going to be

1073
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 8: so mad because they like doing that to me. But uh,

1074
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:36,560
Speaker 8: I don't, I don't. I don't know, literally literally. The

1075
00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 8: only thing that's that it's PINNI me tours them winning

1076
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 8: is the stat is that stat? But how much can

1077
00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 8: of stat really really stay true? There's no guaranteed, right,

1078
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 8: but it's true until it's not. That will make the future.

1079
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,879
Speaker 7: But whatever what am I words you sad to say

1080
00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:59,880
Speaker 7: about compromised offensive life.

1081
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:02,359
Speaker 5: It says they were in for a long day.

1082
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, all right, let's let's go with the Cowboys. All right,

1083
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 8: that's close one. Hopefully, I don't know this. Let's give

1084
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:14,879
Speaker 8: a score of twenty no, yeah, twenty eight, twenty six. Uh,

1085
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:17,760
Speaker 8: it comes down to a kick.

1086
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:18,479
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1087
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 6: I was really prepared if they won last week, to

1088
00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:23,040
Speaker 6: say that this would be a week that they were

1089
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,800
Speaker 6: gonna lose exactly. I didn't when we when we started

1090
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 6: this five game stretch, we talked about it. I was like,

1091
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 6: there's no way they're going to go undefeated in that

1092
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,360
Speaker 6: five game stretch. I do think they're good enough to

1093
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,719
Speaker 6: go four and one, and so the fact that they

1094
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 6: lost last week is what gives me the belief that

1095
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 6: they'll go in this week and they'll win. I do

1096
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 6: think though it's going to be a high scoring game.

1097
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 6: I think this is gonna be a game where it's

1098
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:44,640
Speaker 6: gonna be a lot of track track.

1099
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 2: I absolutely do.

1100
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 6: And I think that what we saw from those off

1101
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,359
Speaker 6: I intimated earlier in the show, what we saw from

1102
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 6: those offensive linemen earlier this year, is that they can

1103
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,200
Speaker 6: play like and I think that Michae will go into

1104
00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 6: this game and say I'm not gonna take put the

1105
00:47:57,400 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 6: handcuffs on my team. I'm going in and saying we're

1106
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:01,600
Speaker 6: going to pla football and we're gonna do what we

1107
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:03,640
Speaker 6: do best. And I think they're gonna go at Miami,

1108
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 6: and by the way, Miami's gonna go with them, and

1109
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,320
Speaker 6: I think it's gonna be a high scoring game. I

1110
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 6: think Cowboys win thirty seven to thirty five on the rule.

1111
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 6: Christmas Eve, all right, I appreciate you guys, Jonas said, Amber,
