Welcome to the latest edition of 0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:48.320 The Break. We are live from the SWBC Mortgar Studios. 0:00:48.360 --> 0:00:49.159 At the start, I'm very. 0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:51.520 Happy to have our full crew back for Friday. 0:00:51.520 --> 0:00:55.240 We're getting you guys ready for Cowboys versus Dolphins. That's 0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:57.440 gonna happen this Sunday. We got to get caught up 0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:00.160 on some injuries. Man, there's some real, real concerns the 0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:02.840 Cowboys are dealing with heading into this game. We'll tell 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:04.120 you what we think is going to happen from the 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:06.880 standpoint of some of the matchups in this game. Amber's 0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:09.399 got some questions for us. In the second segment, and 0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:10.920 then the final segment of the show, we're going to 0:01:10.959 --> 0:01:13.559 focus in on the NFC, talk a little bit about 0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:17.200 some of the scenarios where the cow Man they're looking 0:01:17.280 --> 0:01:20.640 like nobody wants to play, right, But we're gonna talk 0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:22.959 about some of those scenarios in NFC and where teams 0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:25.520 are lining up, and how this thing is going toward 0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:27.360 the end, and give you some of the ideas of 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:30.200 there's so many games this weekend that the Cowboys will 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:31.959 have a vested interest in. So we'll lay some of 0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:32.400 that out for you. 0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:32.720 Guys. 0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:34.960 You know how you should be rooting if you're rooting 0:01:34.959 --> 0:01:37.680 for the Cowboys. So let's get this thing going. Let's 0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:40.520 jump right in. Let's talk about first injuries we got 0:01:40.560 --> 0:01:43.320 Tyron Smith and Zach Martin. I think those are the 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:45.800 two that everyone's really paying attention to. What are we 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:46.560 hearing at this point? 0:01:46.600 --> 0:01:48.480 All right, so ladies and gentlemen, bear with me. I 0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:50.760 am back. I'm feeling better, but my voice is still 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:53.240 somewhere in hell. I'm waiting for that to join us 0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:57.360 injury wise, Tyron Smith and Zach Martin, like you said 0:01:58.160 --> 0:02:01.160 in hearing what Jerry Jones on General Menal j Jerry Jones, 0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:03.520 A head coach Mike McCarthy said in their conversations, with 0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:05.920 one O five three the fan this morning. It's not 0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:11.120 a lot of optimism. Mike said that Zach is ahead 0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:13.840 of Tyrann as far as the possibility of playing against 0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:17.280 the Dolphins, But based on some conversations I'm having and 0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:20.120 it being a reaggravation of that quad contusion, it's not 0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:23.280 exactly looking like sunshines and the rainbow. So I'd put 0:02:23.360 --> 0:02:25.280 Zack at about a fifty to fifty, maybe a little 0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:28.200 bit less than fifty. I'm completely pessimistic on if Tyron 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:30.639 Smith is going to take the field at all, and 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.799 then that puts you again in an offensive line flux 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:36.320 and then against a defensive line that is that excels 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:38.320 at getting pressures and getting their hands on the quarterback. 0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:40.520 So if one or both of those guys are out, 0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:42.760 and it looks like it's possible that one or both 0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:44.920 of them will be out, then you're really gonna have 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:45.880 your hands full up front. 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:48.480 Yeah, that's this morning. 0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:50.919 They were saying that, especially with Tyrann, they're gonna carry 0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:53.040 that thing all the way up until the very last minute, 0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:56.320 is all that. And I was asking about, you know, Sunday, 0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:57.720 and they're like, we're gonna give them. 0:02:57.639 --> 0:02:59.280 Every possibility every minute. 0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:02.480 So yeah, hold your breath on that when whatever football 0:03:02.520 --> 0:03:03.840 gods you pray to go. 0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:04.639 Ahead and go for it. 0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:08.640 So but yeah, the thing with Martin, we we interviewed 0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:09.880 Zach yesterday one. 0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:12.520 Five three the Fan first Week Interview. Thank you. 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:14.840 He's after we stopped asking about how to put Christmas 0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:17.240 toys together, then we started getting the nuts of bolts 0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:18.600 of football, and uh. 0:03:18.840 --> 0:03:20.600 You know, he's always going to tell you he's fine. 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:22.519 He's always going to tell you that, hey, I'm good 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:24.119 to you know, everything's good and all that. 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:24.680 Uh. 0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:28.359 But like Patrick says, I think that these both are 0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:33.040 are we're looking at probably maybe Martin with the chance that. 0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:36.960 I don't think that the Tyron Smith one is going 0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:39.480 to work out for you this game. I just just 0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:41.440 just talking. I mean, when you start to talk about 0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:44.680 the very last minute, We've seen the very last minute 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:48.000 before with Tyron Smith and it's gone the bad way. 0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:51.760 So uh, I hate to be the wet blanket guy here, 0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:53.840 but man, that that's that's gonna be a tough one 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:54.320 to deal with. 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:56.640 Yeah, whether right or wrong, I think that the natural 0:03:56.640 --> 0:04:00.280 inclination for all fans or bystanders who've wont to the 0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:02.080 Cowboys for the last several years. 0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:03.840 The history tells us. 0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:06.000 That when you get into this kind of situation with Tyrant, 0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:09.120 the likelihood is that you probably out more on you 0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:11.520 fall more on the side that he's probably not gonna play. 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:13.800 But you just don't know, and we'll wait and see 0:04:13.920 --> 0:04:17.719 until Sunday. But that being said, across the table, you guys, 0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:20.000 tell me, what's your level? How much does this change 0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:23.280 your thoughts on where you were on the Cowboys possibilities 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:24.520 of going to Miami and getting a win. 0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:26.600 I'll start you a lot. 0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:29.520 I mean, I'm hoping for a win, but it's just 0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:33.640 it really complicates things because you come out of the 0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:37.640 loss against Buffalo where the offense wasn't able to really 0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:41.000 perform at a level that you expected them to or 0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:44.080 wanted them to, and you talk about the O line 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:48.440 and the running game, how we started seeing an incline 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:52.039 in that they started getting better. Now, any type of 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:55.120 injury happening there, that's gonna take a hit and it's 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:57.680 going to affect their running game. Now that's kind of 0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:00.360 taken out of the equation for me, because I don't 0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:03.840 see it working very well if both of them are 0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:07.839 out or even one of them. The key for me 0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:11.360 in this game would be for Dak to go back 0:05:11.400 --> 0:05:15.640 to that quick, quick, quick get maybe take a few 0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:18.600 steps back, get rid of the of the ball very 0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:21.920 very quickly, and connect with the receivers everyone's going to 0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:24.800 have to be on at the same pace and connect 0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:27.760 it and know exactly what the route is, what the 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:31.120 call is, what the plan is, and hope that they're 0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:33.440 in sync, because that's the only way that I see 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:36.680 it right now knowing about these injuries. Even if they 0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:39.480 were to step on the field and play, that doesn't 0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:42.600 mean they're one hundred percent healthy. They're still banged up 0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:47.039 and they're still affected with these injuries. So regardless, I 0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:51.400 think for me, yeah, it changes what I think of 0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:56.120 the outcome maybe, but I have hope holding on to 0:05:56.240 --> 0:05:59.240 that stat of them playing really, really good after a 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:03.320 loss and also hoping that the offense starts clicking again 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:05.960 where Dak can just get rid of the ball very quickly. 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:10.480 Had an advantage. You had an advantage if you're healthy. 0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:13.040 You have an advantage because they're really banged up on 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:16.000 their offensive line, and you were hopeful that maybe that 0:06:16.080 --> 0:06:18.600 your defense would be able to take advantage of that. 0:06:19.279 --> 0:06:23.000 They're still dealing with Robert Hunt and Austin Jackson being hurt. 0:06:23.440 --> 0:06:25.960 So now it kind of if you lose two guys, 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:27.440 they lose two guys. Now it's going to be a 0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:31.320 battle of which backup group can find ways to block, 0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:35.320 you know, really good defensive lines, especially with you know, 0:06:35.360 --> 0:06:39.560 with dealing with Bradley Chubb and and Wilkins and that crew. 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:41.320 I mean, they could present some. 0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:45.560 Problems, but you got better backups right now, I would 0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:48.240 say the Cowboys do that. That would be where I 0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:50.279 would go right now when you talk to talk about 0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:53.000 bass and a dooga, I think it's better than what 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:56.640 I'm seeing with you know, with with what the Dolphins 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:59.520 have thrown out there. But the Dolphins do a really 0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:03.840 good job of scheming around the deficiencies they have in 0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:04.880 their offensive line. 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:06.840 They don't ask. 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:08.680 Those guys to do a whole hell of a lot, 0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:11.600 you know, from what I was seeing, it's a lot 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:15.880 of angle blocks, a lot of half man blocks. Uh, 0:07:16.120 --> 0:07:18.400 never have to take anybody on toe to toe. 0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:19.040 You know. 0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:21.640 Their scheme is built that way. The way they run 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:24.280 the ball, they are a perimeter running team, and so 0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:27.840 everything is about movement and pulling and trapping and so 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:30.360 it's it's not asking them to just go out there 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:32.600 and just blow guys off the line of scrimmage. 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:33.880 They just don't play that way. 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:38.320 I think Dallas has the better group, but I'm interested 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:43.760 to see which offensive staff schemes better in this game 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:48.440 to get there to manufacture offense when they're compromised on 0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:49.760 their offensive lines. 0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:51.520 Cowboys are going to have to learn from what the 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:54.480 Arizona Cardinals tell them. Yeah, you go back and look 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:57.760 at the Arizona Cardinals film, and you know that's what 0:07:57.840 --> 0:07:59.760 you draw from. As far as what you need to 0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:04.040 do against the Miami Dolphins, as far as supplanting or 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.200 trying to supplant Tyron Smith and Zach Martin, It's not 0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:08.200 going to be an easy task at all, especially against 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:11.920 this defensive front. But I'd love Ambar's point. You got 0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:15.080 to get the ball out quickly. Don't put your offensive 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:18.560 line in position and includes Chunmaydoga and likely TJ. Bass. 0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:20.960 Don't put those guys in position where they have to 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:23.480 do a ton of pass pro against some of the 0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:26.480 better pass rushers in the league. Get it out quickly. 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:29.400 The Dolphins love to run zone. They run zone assuming 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:32.080 they do it because I'm always traumatized by what the 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:34.640 forty nine ers did with flipping that switch. But assuming 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:37.600 that the Dolphins remain true to what they've been doing, 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:40.240 which is running zone three out of every four defensive snaps, 0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:41.880 you're going to have the spacing there to get that 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:43.480 ball out. So get the ball out, get it into 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:46.480 the hands of your playmakers. Move CD Lamb around, Move 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:49.920 Brandon Cooks around, get Cavante Turpin involved, use Jake Ferguson 0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:52.160 to attack that second level and attack the seams with 0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:55.280 the linebackers applying pressure to the safety. They run a 0:08:55.320 --> 0:08:57.720 lot of single high as well, and that should help 0:08:57.760 --> 0:08:59.840 the passing game open up a little bit more with 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:02.760 which then should make things easier for Tony Pollard recalled 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:05.280 out on the run game because quite as it's kept. 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:08.880 While the home and away splits are massive when it 0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:12.920 comes to like penalties, types of penalties, passing yards, things 0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:15.360 like that, the running game, the rushing attack has been 0:09:15.400 --> 0:09:18.320 pretty steady. I think four point one yard average per 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:20.560 handoff on the road, four point two at home. So 0:09:21.000 --> 0:09:22.840 if you can get out to a fast start, and 0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:24.720 that's going to come down to getting that ball out quickly, 0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:28.600 get out and score play from play ahead. That running 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:31.000 game should be your steady hand going forward. You're probably 0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:32.920 not gonna get a lot of shots downfield without tiring 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:33.400 exact there. 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:35.440 Well, I'll say the thing that concerns me most about 0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:39.439 that strategy is last week they faced another team that's 0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:40.880 similar to this one in the way that they get 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:43.199 a four man pressure. They can have seven out in 0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:45.920 coverage and when they're playing zone with seven. By the way, 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:50.040 they're pretty good playing zone with seven, it flogs everything's. 0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:51.000 Up and the traveler too. 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:53.280 Yeah, so yeah, yeah, they got to travel to time. 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:54.840 It just makes it really I think it makes it 0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:57.880 really tough, whether you're talking about a quick passing game 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:00.120 or a passing game where you can try to that 0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:02.839 the passes to let the routes develop. Either way, I 0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:05.400 think it's going to be really tough for Dak built 0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:08.240 to find those openings, especially if they're being able to 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.160 get pressure with four knowing that the Cowboys are compromise 0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:12.840 on the offensive live. So I think that's really the 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:15.000 challenge for me. The key really gonna come down to, 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:17.120 can the Cowboys find a way to run the ball 0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:20.319 that's gonna slow down those four pass rushers and give 0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:22.360 you that time that you need in order to really 0:10:22.440 --> 0:10:24.600 find those big plays, because this offense is predicated on 0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:27.000 the big plays. When they play well, when they're playing 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:29.439 at their best, they got big plays involved. They're gonna 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:31.360 need those, I think, and the running game is the 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:32.720 only thing I think that's going to get them there. 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:34.120 And the only way you're gonna be able to do 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:37.199 that is if your defense bottles up guys like Tyreek Hill, 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:40.160 jay Lenwato kind of gets hands on tour rattles him 0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:43.080 as much as possible. Because if you allow the Dolphins 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:45.200 to do what the Bills did, which is get up 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:47.720 on you, and largely because of self inflicted wounds, but 0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:50.520 however it happens. If you allow the Dolphins to get 0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:53.560 up on you early playing from behind Againstille, game's gone, right, 0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:56.439 running game's going and you're down to starting offensive lineman, 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:57.400 you're in trouble. 0:10:57.480 --> 0:10:59.400 Yeah, that's gonna be the thing that scares me about 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:02.480 this game a little bit, as who the official. 0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:06.199 Is with Sean Hockey, you know, and and we all 0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:06.760 are very. 0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:07.840 Familiar with seen this before. 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:11.880 We've seen Sean Hockey insert himself and his crew. 0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:12.840 Into into games. 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:16.520 And that's the that's the thing that that's always terrifying 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:19.520 to me. I mean just looking through his the metrics 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:23.000 with him, he's had he's had multiple games where it's 0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:28.480 eighteen penalties, fifteen penalties, fourteen penalties. You know, you just 0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:31.640 never know what you're gonna get. You're gonna get calls, 0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:34.280 but you don't and it and it's at the worst 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:37.400 time with this, I just you know, I've always one 0:11:37.440 --> 0:11:39.520 of these guys, just let him play, let the two 0:11:39.600 --> 0:11:42.360 teams figure it out. But you've got a guy that 0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:44.120 likes to put himself. 0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:44.800 In the middle of the game. 0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:47.280 And you know, I'm not trying to make excuses for 0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:50.200 either team here, but it is what it is. You know, 0:11:50.280 --> 0:11:53.360 sometimes you're at the mercy of these guys and uh, 0:11:53.480 --> 0:11:55.679 you know that's the that's the unfortunate part of the 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:57.760 thing that you know, you didn't draw a crew this 0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:00.160 week that's probably gonna let you play. You're gonna get 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:03.200 one that's gonna called the game probably pretty tight. And 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:05.800 and you know who will have an advantage of that. 0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:08.000 Cowboy is one of the most penalized teams in the league. 0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:09.880 I think the Dolphins are up there too, So. 0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:11.640 I would love to see if this is the week 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:14.920 would maybe maybe Michael Parsons gets a call like that's 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.280 ridiculous that he hasn't gotten any of these holding calls. 0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:18.719 Maybe this is a week where he gets some of those. 0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:20.640 Yeah, well it's it's it's you know, like I said, 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:23.600 you just don't know what these crews and had a 0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:27.319 holding call against him since since the Chargers game. You know, 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:30.079 that's how far back that thing goes. But and and 0:12:30.080 --> 0:12:32.360 and they've got a compromised offensive line like you do 0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:34.720 right now, So there's going to be some holding in 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:35.160 this game. 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:38.000 Don't don't. Don't act like it's not gonna happen. 0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:40.280 What are we hearing about Malie Cooker? Have we heard 0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:40.920 anything more about it? 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:44.480 He's progressing, Obviously, he missed last week because of the illness. 0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:47.200 He didn't practice as they gave him and his ankle 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:49.400 some rest on Wednesday. But he did practice in a 0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:52.199 limited participate as a limited participant on Thursday. So he's 0:12:52.240 --> 0:12:55.079 taking on more work. We'll see what today Friday's injury 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:57.720 report looks like for him, but he's tracking toward taking 0:12:57.720 --> 0:13:00.720 the field, and uh, that would be you know, big one, Tomas. 0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:03.000 He played solid. He had I think two or three 0:13:03.000 --> 0:13:05.160 missed tackles before the most part, given the fire that 0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:07.280 he was thrown in. In a situation he was thrown in, 0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:09.480 it was much more run support than coverage because Josh 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.520 Allen only threw fifteen times. But yeah, mon Lee Cooker 0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:13.839 is tracking toward taking the feud. 0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:15.920 All right, we're gonna take our first break. We'll come back. 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:18.000 Amber has some questions for us. 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.200 All right, I can't smile. 0:13:20.640 --> 0:13:23.160 No, I'm just wondering, like, Okay, we're gonna come back. 0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:26.000 AMA's got some questions for us and uh, and we'll 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:27.960 get to those.

Okay, 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:08.000 so thank you to everyone who sent in their questions today. 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:13.200 All right, guys, what's more important for success in this 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:17.400 weekend's game? Offensive line dominates from the start? Or defensive 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:23.240 line dominates from the start? From the cowboy side, do 0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:27.320 you prefer the offense to start off better the line 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:29.200 or the defensive line to start off? 0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:31.200 Said offensive line twice? 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:35.080 No, both offense line or defensive line. I think defensive 0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:37.640 line because the way I look at this game, it 0:16:37.680 --> 0:16:40.560 goes back to what you said, Patrick. They cannot afford 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:43.600 to get down in this game, even if the offense 0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:45.920 is slow getting started. As long as they don't let 0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:49.040 Miami run away, then you could play a close game 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:50.560 and you can just kind of figure it out as 0:16:50.600 --> 0:16:50.800 you go. 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:52.520 You cannot get behind. 0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:54.800 If you get behind, we've seen how that goes, that's 0:16:54.800 --> 0:16:55.440 not gonna be good. 0:16:55.520 --> 0:16:57.800 Yeah. For me, it's defensive line. Defensive line has to 0:16:57.840 --> 0:17:00.160 set the tone. Defense has to set the tone, especially 0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:02.760 after a game like what happened to Buffalo, when you 0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:05.919 basically just got mauled. So they need to get their 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:08.159 confidence back. They need to get their resist show you 0:17:08.200 --> 0:17:12.520 the resilience, and they need to be what everybody believes 0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:15.360 they can be. And you already know the Cowboys offensive 0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:17.440 line might struggle a bit because they might be down 0:17:17.440 --> 0:17:19.680 two starters. This defensive line is going to have to 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:20.120 get it done. 0:17:20.520 --> 0:17:22.760 Scoring helps this defense. Give me the offense. 0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:25.679 I'm putting pressure on, as much pressure as I can 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:28.560 on Miami. I'm gonna make them have to you know. 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:30.360 The one thing that I know is if I can 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:33.800 build a lead, hold a lead, that that dolphin running 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:36.680 game will go away, because it happens every single time 0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:38.800 the Cowboys score for thirty points. Teams don't run the 0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:41.560 football on them. And that's my biggest concern right now. 0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:44.040 Give me the offense, come out blistering them right off 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:46.399 the jump. Give me one of those games where you 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:47.480 got three drives. 0:17:47.680 --> 0:17:50.240
