Speaker 1: Being all honesty, man, we're just trying to keep up
Speaker 1: with you. No, for the first time this year, can

Speaker 1: first time this year? Heckma has won the same watch
Speaker 1: two days in a row. Whoa oh, I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: have you seen it? Have we seen it? Double up?
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I don't believe so either. He
Speaker 1: I'm just walking into his household and it's just watching
Speaker 1: watch Watch. So so what you're seeing right now. So
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, what happens is before
Speaker 1: I go to bed, I checked my steps and it's
Speaker 1: always somewhere around the nine thousand, eight hundred. I'm doing
Speaker 1: everything to get those ten thousand steps. So I'm not
Speaker 1: switching watches. Dog. This thing is going to percolate at
Speaker 1: some portant today and I want to be a part
Speaker 1: of it. So you allow yourself to go to bed
Speaker 1: two hundred steps short of your goal. See, I swear
Speaker 1: to god it is wow. I would about motivation. Goodness.
Speaker 1: I love that little bit. Walk to the corner, right
Speaker 1: around the bit, get yeah, good around the streets, coming back.
Speaker 1: All right, Well we've we're having some fun here on
Speaker 1: talking cowboys. Treyvon dis has had some fun over the
Speaker 1: last month, wouldn't you say? So? It was coming down
Speaker 1: that he has been named the NFC Defensive Player of
Speaker 1: the Month one of the big news lines coming out
Speaker 1: today and it was like, yeah, there you go, a
Speaker 1: little flos for Treyvon Diggs. Uh goodness. He has taken
Speaker 1: the league by storm. I mean, we have talked about
Speaker 1: it already on this this program, but Rob, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's been a while since a NFC Defensive Player of
Speaker 1: the Month has been employed by the Dallas Cowboys, but
Speaker 1: Treyvon Digs very deserving. Absolutely. I mean, if you tie
Speaker 1: your rookie total in interceptions in three games, you're doing
Speaker 1: something right. And the Cowboys are two when one in
Speaker 1: large part because of that turnover deferential best in the league,
Speaker 1: plus five league leading eight takeaways, and Trayvon Diggs has
Speaker 1: been a huge part of that. So he's on We're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about him later in the show, I believe.
Speaker 1: But he's on the up swing, no doubt, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure he wishes he could play against Jalen Hurts every week.
Speaker 1: So especially the pick six that I mean, he's just
Speaker 1: especially those quarterbacks that telegraph their throws. He's just too
Speaker 1: good to do that too. And you talk about guys
Speaker 1: that have taken the leap in their second year, he's
Speaker 1: done that. And I'm just so impressed with the way
Speaker 1: that he's playing, the way that he's breaking on balls.
Speaker 1: I mean, and dan Quinn is getting a lot of praise, rightfully,
Speaker 1: So from just recognizing the guys that he has and
Speaker 1: and putting these guys in position to actually be successful.
Speaker 1: And look for me as a as a as a
Speaker 1: former defensive guy, I am used to a defense hunting
Speaker 1: an offense. The NFL has changed so much now that
Speaker 1: offenses are hunting the defense, and I love to see
Speaker 1: that paradigm shift with our with our defense because they
Speaker 1: are coming out the teams and I just can't wait
Speaker 1: to see what the game plan is for the Panthers,
Speaker 1: because I believe we go We're gonna come out. Though
Speaker 1: I asked, I agree. I asked Jordan Lewis about Trayvon
Speaker 1: yesterday and he said, well, he dropped seven interceptions last year,
Speaker 1: so yeah, he should be doing this. I don't know
Speaker 1: if he drops seven, but he didn't say that he did,
Speaker 1: I mean, just like that rap, but like he did
Speaker 1: say that in training camp, Like I got my hands
Speaker 1: on a number of balls and did not come up
Speaker 1: with them, and he is said thirteen. I think he
Speaker 1: said he got his hands on thirteen balls in tray
Speaker 1: or excuse me, last year as a rookie. But he
Speaker 1: said this in training camp and he was like, that
Speaker 1: means I should have thirteen more interceptions and everybody kind
Speaker 1: of giggled and laughed at it. But it's like, oh,
Speaker 1: every time he gets a pick, you think about that quote. Basically,
Speaker 1: Jordan's point was he was in position to make plays
Speaker 1: last year. He was a ball hawk last year. He
Speaker 1: gave up some big plays, but he can This is
Speaker 1: not necessarily knew. He just finished and plays. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: been very good. He's the first Defensive Player of the
Speaker 1: Month award for the Cowboys since DeMarcus Lawrence in September
Speaker 1: of twenty seventeen, and then before that it was linebacker
Speaker 1: Shaun Lee October of twenty thirteen and September of twenty eleven.
Speaker 1: Those the last three times the Cowboys have had the honor.
Speaker 1: So if you're talking about company over the last decade
Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys, that's pretty good company to be in. Okay,
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers on the docket. Three and oh coming up
Speaker 1: this Sunday afternoon, Matt ruling company in his second year
Speaker 1: out in Carolina and they've had quite the turnaround so far.
Speaker 1: Sam Darnold that quarterback. Today we're previewing the Cowboys defense
Speaker 1: led by Trey Von Diggs against that Carolina offense that
Speaker 1: has to deal with no Christian McCaffrey. So, Isaiah, what weapons,
Speaker 1: what problems do or does the Carolina offense bring to
Speaker 1: the table come Sunday. I don't think it's one particular person.
Speaker 1: I'm when I at the Carolina Panthers, I look at
Speaker 1: their approach holistically. Their their offense in the way in
Speaker 1: which they attack is multifaceted. They'll they'll run at you,
Speaker 1: they'll go twenty one personnel, they'll go twelve personnel, they'll
Speaker 1: go thirteen personnel. Uh, they'll go eleven personnel, they'll empty
Speaker 1: out the backfield, they mix it up. It really reminds
Speaker 1: me of kind of killing Moore's approach to this season,
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, minus the fact that we
Speaker 1: actually use the Carolina uses a fullback. Um, so it's
Speaker 1: really not one person that you have to be worried about.
Speaker 1: And that's that's a good thing, but it's a bad
Speaker 1: thing as well. Um. It's the same reason why teams
Speaker 1: can't key on one particular guy when we're when we're
Speaker 1: facing them offensively, Um, we can't key on one guy
Speaker 1: for them. Obviously they're losing, they lost their their number
Speaker 1: one guy, but that almost forces them to use everybody. Now, um,
Speaker 1: you know, everybody used to key in on on Christian McCaffrey,
Speaker 1: but now he's out temporarily. So now you got Hubbard
Speaker 1: in the backfield. Now you got you know, their their
Speaker 1: plethora of tight ends that they have. They have DJ Moore,
Speaker 1: they got Anderson, you know that you can't sleep on.
Speaker 1: So they got some dudes, man, they got some dudes.
Speaker 1: And you know, I think that we need to approach
Speaker 1: this and say, hey, our guys versus your guy's head up.
Speaker 1: We're not trying to take out one particular guy or
Speaker 1: one particular facet of what you do. We just have
Speaker 1: to be prepared, be prepared for everything because they're gonna
Speaker 1: throw everything at us. I love when we have these
Speaker 1: conversations off camera and you kind of feed me with
Speaker 1: some information. Yesterday you said that about Joe Brady's offense
Speaker 1: and Kelly Moore's being similar, and I couldn't wait to
Speaker 1: get home to look at the tape. Damn, yeah, it is.
Speaker 1: It is very similar. And it's that college style and
Speaker 1: people that don't recognize the name. The offensive coordinator for
Speaker 1: the Panthers was also the offensive coordinator for LSU, and
Speaker 1: during their national championship run, and do you talk about
Speaker 1: that offense when it's clicking, It is unstoppable. And I
Speaker 1: just think the things that they do with their tight
Speaker 1: ends are also very interesting and we're gonna have and
Speaker 1: we had a question yesterday from a caller that asked
Speaker 1: us about covering the tight ends and there's going to
Speaker 1: be a challenge in this game to get those tight
Speaker 1: ends cover. But I'm again my whole thing is, guys,
Speaker 1: what do the Panthers do without Christian McCaffrey. And I know,
Speaker 1: for us, if we were facing the team where we're
Speaker 1: looking at taping, we're keying in on this guy. Who
Speaker 1: else are they going to have? I don't know if
Speaker 1: Hubbard can replaces as a back. You know what McCaffrey does.
Speaker 1: But you're absolutely right when you talk about the wide
Speaker 1: receivers and especially Robbie Anderson and his ability to take
Speaker 1: the top off of a defense. How are we going
Speaker 1: to approach that. I'm looking at Sam Donald first, and
Speaker 1: it's only three games in, but he looks like he's
Speaker 1: having a renaissance. He needed to get out of New York,
Speaker 1: he needed to get away from the Jets situation. Robbie
Speaker 1: Anderson did last year and had a career season ninety
Speaker 1: three catches, and it's you know, we're looking at what
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford's doing in LA and to maybe a little
Speaker 1: bit of a smaller scale, it's what Sam Donold's doing
Speaker 1: in Carolina. Get out of a losing situation, get your
Speaker 1: confidence back, you know, and be around some better personnel.
Speaker 1: And it's reflected in the stats his yards per attempt
Speaker 1: or up, his yards per completion or up. He's only
Speaker 1: got one interception so far, and that's one of the
Speaker 1: best things they do is they don't turn the ball over.
Speaker 1: So I just see, you know, they've got a number
Speaker 1: one overall draft pick at quarterback who's playing the best
Speaker 1: ball of his career, with an offensive coordinator who can
Speaker 1: really do some good things schematically, and it's shown up
Speaker 1: in the first game even though they don't have their
Speaker 1: best player this week. Sam Darnold is only twenty four
Speaker 1: years old. Do you believe that he's a number one
Speaker 1: overall pick and he's twenty four. I mean, you talk
Speaker 1: about a renaissance. I mean, he's been in the league
Speaker 1: for four years. But yeah, it's it's it feels like
Speaker 1: ten in New York with the struggles that they had exactly,
Speaker 1: so he could be a very formidable quarterback by the
Speaker 1: time he is really getting going in Carolina, and maybe
Speaker 1: he already is getting going, and that's why they've they've
Speaker 1: looked so strong. But kind of to go along with
Speaker 1: what you guys said Matt Rule said yesterday, Obviously you
Speaker 1: can't replace the production of Christian McCaffrey, but those other players,
Speaker 1: they've been waiting for their opportunity. Who knows what they
Speaker 1: can do when given that opportunity, and he don't. He
Speaker 1: doesn't think it's fair to Sam Darnold and to the
Speaker 1: offensive line to go away from what they've been doing.
Speaker 1: We've been working on it for a long time. So
Speaker 1: that to me tells me that they're gonna stick with
Speaker 1: a lot of the same deal and trying to run
Speaker 1: Chubba Hubbard, the rookie out of Oklahoma State, just as
Speaker 1: much as they would try and utilize a Christian McCaffrey.
Speaker 1: Now huge step down not Christian McCaffrey, but they have
Speaker 1: a similar skill set if you look at what they
Speaker 1: can do. Well. Yeah, so this is the thing. So
Speaker 1: everybody looks like Christian McCaffrey and thinks that he's just
Speaker 1: the God's end and he's a freaking amazing He's freaking
Speaker 1: amazing's no mistake about it. But let's not act as
Speaker 1: if this offense was unproductive when he's not on the field.
Speaker 1: That's not the case. It's not like you throw a
Speaker 1: swing route that would have gotten minus one yards and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, McAffrey turns it into hand. It's like, no,
Speaker 1: this is this is a player that we probably would
Speaker 1: have got six yards and McCaffrey turns into ten or twelve. Right,
Speaker 1: But she's chains are still moving, right. McCaffrey has the
Speaker 1: big playability. He has ability to break tackles, he has
Speaker 1: ability to to squire squiggle out of a couple of things.
Speaker 1: But offensively, they're still productive. So I don't want people
Speaker 1: to be fooled and think, oh mcaffy's gone. I means, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're about we're about run off and get on their head. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: you still have to stop the offense. You just don't
Speaker 1: have to worry about the running back now all of
Speaker 1: a sudden making some miraculous plays that we've seen on
Speaker 1: highlight rails, you know, friend for him from the past years. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think for me seeing Hubbard because we live here
Speaker 1: in Texas Big twelve that's all we see. So Oklahoma
Speaker 1: State is always on the twobe and you've seen him. Man,
Speaker 1: he's a tough inside runner guy that has good hands.
Speaker 1: But you're right now, this no McCaffrey is just his
Speaker 1: DNA is completely different from a lot of running backs
Speaker 1: in this league. But I want to go back to
Speaker 1: something that you said about Sam Donald and the renaissance
Speaker 1: of his career being in Carolina. The look they've played
Speaker 1: the Jet they played the Texans, and they played a
Speaker 1: divisional game against the Saints that have hadn't been home
Speaker 1: in a month, right and missing five of their assistant
Speaker 1: coaches in the time that they played. I'm not trying
Speaker 1: to downplay it. It's certainly is what I'm saying. And
Speaker 1: I think Sam Donald still has some of those tendencies
Speaker 1: that we've seen. Man. He you know, when you get
Speaker 1: pressure on him, he starts to do the macareina and
Speaker 1: burp the baby, you know, and and next thing you know,
Speaker 1: he's he'll turn it over. And I think the defense
Speaker 1: that we have, we have the kind of hunters up
Speaker 1: front that we can get after him, you know, immediately,
Speaker 1: and so that's the number one thing that I want
Speaker 1: to see dan Quinn established, is pressure on Sam Donald.
Speaker 1: You believe that or no, I totally I agree with
Speaker 1: you there, although just watching him in some of these
Speaker 1: games so far, he will step up in the pocket
Speaker 1: and make a throw and rip it down the field
Speaker 1: and just he looks like it's just a more confident quarterback. Now,
Speaker 1: you're right, it's it's early and Cowboys have shown they
Speaker 1: can get some pressure, so it'll be interesting. But I
Speaker 1: do agree. I think they've got Hubbard looks good. I
Speaker 1: mean when he came in the second half, he averaged
Speaker 1: five yards of carry, had three catches at for twenty seven.
Speaker 1: That's kind of, you know, help supplement some of what
Speaker 1: McCaffrey does out of the backfield. So they can still
Speaker 1: their productive. Yeah, they can still spread it around. But
Speaker 1: three weeks in you're right, But but I think I
Speaker 1: do think they're using that as a little bit of
Speaker 1: a chip too, because I think rule A dressed that, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: the fact that they haven't played anybody yet, Well, they're
Speaker 1: about to play somebody. They have two chips. As office
Speaker 1: a coordinator, you're coming too this game with two chips
Speaker 1: on your shoulder. You come in with a chip on
Speaker 1: your shoulder that you're not you can't do anything without
Speaker 1: your number one player, So you take that on as
Speaker 1: office a coordinators like, oh, okay, you know I'm about
Speaker 1: I'm about to killing mord and getting my bag to
Speaker 1: show that we got some other dogs around here. So
Speaker 1: that's why I say this. It's a good thing that
Speaker 1: he's gone for against us, but it's also a bad
Speaker 1: thing because now you're going to see some stuff that
Speaker 1: you probably wouldn't have seen that the office of coordinator
Speaker 1: is going to go. Okay, let me Plus you don't
Speaker 1: really know what's coming either. Take this out since you
Speaker 1: know y'all think we can do nothing, all right, I
Speaker 1: just would be about to do, you know. And and
Speaker 1: then you have the aspect of, um uh what I
Speaker 1: was gonna say, Oh yeah, as far as what you
Speaker 1: just mentioned, as far as that they haven't played anybody,
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, So so y'all think we can't play,
Speaker 1: and y'all think that we that we can't do anything
Speaker 1: without McCaffrey. All right, I got something for you. I
Speaker 1: guess any competitor is gonna take that approach. Any competitor,
Speaker 1: any true competitor's gonna take that approach. All right, you're
Speaker 1: trying to play me sideways. Okay, I got something for you.
Speaker 1: Let you know, come on, come on, you already know.
Speaker 1: Let you already know. Somebody say you that you can't
Speaker 1: ball no oh yeah, but I understand that. And the
Speaker 1: thing is, I guess the whole point for me is
Speaker 1: if the Cowboys are three and tho, we play a
Speaker 1: rookie to two rookie quarterbacks the first time starters, and
Speaker 1: you know one to say, it wouldn't be oh, these
Speaker 1: guys are undefeated, yalla. You would start looking at who
Speaker 1: they played like a box. And I'm not calling these
Speaker 1: teams tomato Tomato casts because the parody in the NFL
Speaker 1: is real. And that's why when you say, y'all, I
Speaker 1: was supposed to hint that, it's hey, it's like it's
Speaker 1: like I say that, it's like the ball Brothers in boxing.
Speaker 1: I get it, all right, yeah, you you you match
Speaker 1: them up and you give them credit based upon who
Speaker 1: they who they face. But at the same time, people,
Speaker 1: I just want people to acknowledge the fact that this
Speaker 1: is a good ball toon. This is a good ball club,
Speaker 1: It's a good ball club, and they have players, they
Speaker 1: have some dudes, and just because their schedule, it's no
Speaker 1: different than like Boise State. Back in the day, people
Speaker 1: used to try to write off Boysey State because of
Speaker 1: the conference they're in. But and say that, all you know,
Speaker 1: these boys can't play, they haven't played anybody. And then
Speaker 1: they go and they play somebody and then they whoop
Speaker 1: on their head. You know what happened. They'll storm to
Speaker 1: feel and tear your goal posts out exactly, and that's
Speaker 1: and that's what and I agree with you. And the
Speaker 1: thing that makes me nervous about the matchup, literally is
Speaker 1: the fact that just the record of teams playing on
Speaker 1: Monday night playing teams that played previously in the Thursday night,
Speaker 1: and I think the record is twenty one and twenty
Speaker 1: five or something like that. And I won't call this
Speaker 1: a trap game because they're three and oh, so you
Speaker 1: can't call it a trap game. But I will say,
Speaker 1: but I will say that you're right. You know, this
Speaker 1: is one of those situations where, because of the short
Speaker 1: schedule to play on Sunday, we have to come prepared
Speaker 1: and be ready for whatever they do at twelve o'clock.
Speaker 1: One of the biggest reasons there's a buzz around this
Speaker 1: Cowboys team is because of the teams that they've beaten.
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe not the Eagles, but of course the
Speaker 1: Chargers and what they were able to do against the Chiefs.
Speaker 1: The Panthers don't have that yet because of like you said,
Speaker 1: maybe their biggest win was the blowout win over New Orleans,
Speaker 1: and New Orleans is still trying to find their footing
Speaker 1: under Jamis Winston at the same time. But to your
Speaker 1: point of production, after Christian McCaffrey, the Panthers against the
Speaker 1: Texans on Thursday night scored seventeen of their twenty four
Speaker 1: points without Christian McCaffrey in the backfield. They only had
Speaker 1: a touchdown going in a halftime and they came out
Speaker 1: with seventeen after that. But man, you've gotten me excited,
Speaker 1: you guys just talking about this, thinking about the duel
Speaker 1: of the offensive coordinators. Man, two young offensive coordinators up
Speaker 1: and comers, geniuses if you wanted to call it that.
Speaker 1: At modern day offensive minds, Joe Brady and Calamore, that's
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of fun, yea. And people forget
Speaker 1: that that's the competition, and two people forget that coaches
Speaker 1: heck yeah. People always think about because you watch the players, right,
Speaker 1: You watch the players, and we bring up Kelly Moore,
Speaker 1: we bring up you Dan Quinn, right, But people think
Speaker 1: about them as individuals. They don't think of them as competitors.
Speaker 1: These coaches are competitive is all get out. You guys
Speaker 1: can remember these are These are ex players that go
Speaker 1: up there and all of a sudden they're in their bag,
Speaker 1: drawing up stuff, trying to figure out what they can
Speaker 1: do to gain an advantage over their opponent because they're
Speaker 1: having a battle. They're in a booth, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, looking a couple of booths down. There's a
Speaker 1: guy that's that's over there trying to go against what
Speaker 1: they're doing, and it's head to head. It's head to head. Now.
Speaker 1: Their players are executing what they're putting out there, right.
Speaker 1: But when you're playing Madden, guess what RAPI If you
Speaker 1: go out there and you pick cover two, I'm about
Speaker 1: to eat it up, right, I'm gonna eat it up.
Speaker 1: And guess what if and if and if I eat
Speaker 1: it up, guess what you're gonna do. You're gonna change
Speaker 1: it up. You're gonna come to something MC nasty right now.
Speaker 1: You're gonna pick the play that you think gains you
Speaker 1: an advantage, but you're expecting your players to carry it out.
Speaker 1: I like that a lot. There's a battle going on
Speaker 1: within the battle back and Forth and the Cowboys. You're
Speaker 1: gonna have a battle on Sunday when we come back
Speaker 1: here on Talking Cowboys. Let's play a game of this
Speaker 1: or excuse me? Take it or leave it is what

Speaker 1: Isaiah Stanback, Rob Phillips and Kyle Yoman celebrating. Well, we've
Speaker 1: got a fun matchup on the docket, and the Cowboys
Speaker 1: also have the NFC Defensive Player of the month, third
Speaker 1: player in team, his history with those accolades, and it's
Speaker 1: Treyvon Diggs. So I've got some questions for you. Okay,
Speaker 1: this is three questions. Is take it or leave it?
Speaker 1: Which take it means you agree. Leave it means you disagree.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start with mister defensive player of the month,
Speaker 1: Treyvon Diggs. This statement is Treyvon Diggs is a top
Speaker 1: ten corner in the NFL right this moment. Heckma, do
Speaker 1: you agree? Take it? Take it baby? Why now he's
Speaker 1: showing you he's doing everything that in the league corner
Speaker 1: would do. He's following the number one corners. I mean,
Speaker 1: you don't relegate that responsibility to a guy that you
Speaker 1: don't think is has the talent. And he's paying you
Speaker 1: back by getting those turnovers. So if he continues on
Speaker 1: this trajectory, I mean we're talking a pretty seat, a
Speaker 1: pretty serious season for the second year player. Isaiah, I
Speaker 1: can't say that right now. I'mbout to leave it. Okay,
Speaker 1: he's on a great trajectory, but I can't say he's
Speaker 1: top ten right now. I can't make that. Why is
Speaker 1: that we got some really good cornerbacks in this league. Sure,
Speaker 1: some really good dudes in this league. I think that
Speaker 1: he's a very effective corner right now. Um, I think
Speaker 1: when you start talking about top ten, I think you
Speaker 1: are talking about guys that's shut down corners, like you
Speaker 1: said Alexander and green Bay. Um, obviously Jalen Ramsey, guys
Speaker 1: that have a larger sample, Gilmore, Gilmore, that's top five.
Speaker 1: But then when you got six to seven, eight, Xavier Howard,
Speaker 1: that's top five. I'm just here. I'm just award. I
Speaker 1: would say Byron Marcus Peters, you know obviously he's hurt
Speaker 1: now schrm, no, you got you got back. He's not
Speaker 1: a top ten corner. You gotta back that out though,
Speaker 1: don't even not today, not today, not right this second. There,
Speaker 1: I'm just going down to list. But I got a
Speaker 1: list from PF in July. Okay, top outside corners in
Speaker 1: the league. Love it. Richard Sherman was a free agent
Speaker 1: at the time, checked in at number eleven. There's no
Speaker 1: way this is PF. There's no way we love PF,
Speaker 1: do we? He referenced them every once in a while,
Speaker 1: but I don't know if I love them. Some other guys,
Speaker 1: I mean, we mentioned the other guys that you know,
Speaker 1: but Trayvon in a top ten before the season, probably no.
Speaker 1: Marcus Peters checked in at ten, and that is in
Speaker 1: terms of getting the ball and takeaways. That's a that's
Speaker 1: a comp like that, that's a comparison. I think, Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's there's some there's some dudes, and there's some dudes.
Speaker 1: You know, Byron Jones is at fourteen. Byron Jones didn't
Speaker 1: have him. What was his career high here in takeaways like,
Speaker 1: I think you have to factor that one or two interceptions. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but we know he was a really good He was
Speaker 1: really good and they didn't resign him. And I thought
Speaker 1: that was asked me at the time. Right now, the
Speaker 1: trajectory that he's on the way that he's playing, I'm
Speaker 1: taking it. Are you taking it or leaving it? Pete?
Speaker 1: I'm taking it actual, Okay, come on with it, um
Speaker 1: at the moment. I mean it's a small sample, sire,
Speaker 1: that's three weeks. Yes, that's what I'm asking. Hey, defensive
Speaker 1: player of the month? Baby, how do you? How do
Speaker 1: you knock you? He's he's not in the top thirty two.
Speaker 1: Casey Habert Junior is number thirty two according to PFF
Speaker 1: from July. That's yeah, that's before the season though, So yeah,
Speaker 1: keep that in mind. And I don't want Cowboys fans
Speaker 1: sending emails to Pro Football Focus about their July list
Speaker 1: on treyvon Diggs. I would take it as well. I
Speaker 1: think he at the moment is a top ten corner
Speaker 1: in the league because you're mentioning he's not locked down,
Speaker 1: he's not a shutdown corner. I think he proved against
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay that he is a top or. He's a
Speaker 1: shutdown corner. I know Keenan Allen got his fill, but
Speaker 1: that's okay. I mean even top corners in the league
Speaker 1: will give up a game here and there against the
Speaker 1: top ten arguably wide receiver in the NFL. That's exactly
Speaker 1: what Allen is as well. And then he comes out
Speaker 1: and he does the same thing last week against and
Speaker 1: waltha dog on young teams and had to pick six.
Speaker 1: He's a really good player. No, I'm not. Don't think that.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's a really good player. I just
Speaker 1: I can't call him top ten. That's okay, that's it,
Speaker 1: that's fair. That's consistency. You want to keep seeing. I
Speaker 1: have to see I gotta see it. I mean, right
Speaker 1: everybody can saying right now. I think right now, if
Speaker 1: you if there's an opportunity to if you put all
Speaker 1: the cornerbacks in the league on the table and said, hey,
Speaker 1: who are you gonna pay a bunch of money to,
Speaker 1: I don't think that he's in that top ten. I
Speaker 1: think he will be by the day. I think he
Speaker 1: I think he has potential to be. Yeah, he's on
Speaker 1: the right trajectory. All right, what is this Cowboys defense? Real? Yes?
Speaker 1: Take it or leave it? Take it? Excuse me? Run defense?
Speaker 1: I meant to say run in front of that Cowboys
Speaker 1: run defense? Real? I get. I'm glad you said take
Speaker 1: it initially, but I meant to ask, runs are the
Speaker 1: odds that my mom would give me from the kitchen? Well,
Speaker 1: I just knew it was over. I just got set up. Sorry,
Speaker 1: I jumped the gun. He was like, let me change that.
Speaker 1: I got white out. Oh oh, run, d Rob? Do
Speaker 1: you want to go first? What was the question? Run defense?
Speaker 1: Is it real? Are you buying it right now? You're
Speaker 1: buying the run defense? You're taking the run defense? Or
Speaker 1: you think it's just a short sample size and it
Speaker 1: hasn't such a greared its ugly head. Yes it is, gotcha,
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not buying it yet, but I'm not
Speaker 1: I'm not leaving it either. Is that Is that a
Speaker 1: terrible cop out answer? I just think it's okay. I
Speaker 1: guess I say leave because it's a small sample size.
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be better than they were last year.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you couldn't be better than you
Speaker 1: were last year. But they've only opponents have only rushed
Speaker 1: against them forty five times. By comparison, the Cowboys have
Speaker 1: rushed ninety times and how many yards in forty five
Speaker 1: rushes two eleven to four point seven average, which is
Speaker 1: pretty good but decent. Through three weeks. They've played two
Speaker 1: elite quarterbacks and Philly was so behind they rushed twelve
Speaker 1: times in the game. So it's a very small sample size,
Speaker 1: but I do like what they've done up front, no
Speaker 1: question about it. It's in my shopping cart, it's on
Speaker 1: your Amazon day, ready to buy, It's in my shopping
Speaker 1: Come on, now, you get something in your shopping carver
Speaker 1: for and then you say that before before you push
Speaker 1: the checkout button, you said, let me go do a
Speaker 1: little bit more research. Let me think about it. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna I'm a technology guy. I'm a techie, right so
Speaker 1: I'll throw something in the bag. But I need to
Speaker 1: go back and do all that analysis. I need to
Speaker 1: go back and cross compare. I need to do price checks,
Speaker 1: I need to do you know, scour the Internet, watch
Speaker 1: some some YouTube videos and make sure that what I'm
Speaker 1: grabbing is the right thing. That there's not nothing new
Speaker 1: coming out. So it's like on the eBay, you can
Speaker 1: either buy now or you can click the add the card. Exactly,
Speaker 1: it's it's in my car and then you get an
Speaker 1: email the next day saying you left something. There's even
Speaker 1: like a there's even like a safer later list. Yeah, exactly, exactly,
Speaker 1: it's on my Christmas list. What about you? Heck one?
Speaker 1: You know what? This is one of those Leavid situations.
Speaker 1: And the reason why is I'm gonna go back to
Speaker 1: Peasworth that he's using this morning sample size. I think
Speaker 1: of first downs, and we saw versus the Eagles, they
Speaker 1: had some gas runs. I mean they started they start
Speaker 1: of the game with a twenty on my yard yard run.
Speaker 1: So I think that we're correcting it. I just don't.
Speaker 1: I don't want to claim it yet. And especially what
Speaker 1: we did against Leonard Fournette, I love that, but you know,
Speaker 1: I think Tampa also went away from from the run
Speaker 1: just as well as we did. So I'm really waiting
Speaker 1: to see that matchup where we have to face a
Speaker 1: running back that's going to continue to grind it out
Speaker 1: just like we do. And I think we're capable. I
Speaker 1: think you see the improvements on the front front line,
Speaker 1: but I just don't want to jump out the cake
Speaker 1: just yet on the ticket. And the thing is your
Speaker 1: offense is so much better this year that that can
Speaker 1: mitigate the run for the other team. I mean, if
Speaker 1: you keep building up leads with Dak Prescott in this offense,
Speaker 1: you're going to force teams to get away from that
Speaker 1: at some point. You know, first half you can be
Speaker 1: more balanced. Second half like we saw last week, it
Speaker 1: goes out the window so that that can help your
Speaker 1: run defense just by what the scoreboard says. Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 1: I think I would say leave right now. But there's
Speaker 1: kind of along the same lines. There's a really good
Speaker 1: chance to buy it, or excuse me, take it. I'm
Speaker 1: mixing up my own game. It is in my shopping
Speaker 1: cart because I think once they get back and healthy,
Speaker 1: I think it is fixed. I think it is a
Speaker 1: complete turnaround in terms of the run defense that you
Speaker 1: saw from a year ago. Right now you're trying to
Speaker 1: stay afloat with the run defense with all those guys
Speaker 1: missing up front. Carlos Watkins Neville Gallimore, Tristan Hill. I
Speaker 1: mean you're trying to figure it all out. Tank, Yeah, goodness,
Speaker 1: Dorn's armstrong, Black Bradley, and I last week Kean O'Neill.
Speaker 1: So I think you have to try try and keep
Speaker 1: the boat afloat and you were going to have a
Speaker 1: massive test this week. You don't have Christian McCaffrey, but
Speaker 1: I think Chubba Hubbard's gonna have a good game. I
Speaker 1: think he's gonna get his fill in terms of yards,
Speaker 1: So it should be interesting. Okay, next question. This Carolina
Speaker 1: team offensively with their weapons on the outside, is the
Speaker 1: fourth most talented offense that the Cowboys have faced so
Speaker 1: far this season? Take it or leave it? What you're
Speaker 1: gonna put in the shopping car at this time? But
Speaker 1: they have four games exactly, Say it's the point, it's
Speaker 1: the fourth most talented. Yeah, it's least talented the Cowboys
Speaker 1: that face so far. False So leave it, leave it.
Speaker 1: Why is that this team is this offense is more
Speaker 1: talented than what we faced last week than the Eagles? Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: why they have more weapons? They have more weapons and
Speaker 1: their attack is different than what the Eagles attack is.
Speaker 1: So um they are they come at you from all
Speaker 1: different angles. Versus Eagles, you kind of know how they
Speaker 1: can beat you. You really don't know how Carolina can
Speaker 1: beat you. Carolina can beat you in a lot of
Speaker 1: different ways if you if you allow them to, they
Speaker 1: can They can establish a run, they can make you
Speaker 1: get eight men in the box. They hit you over
Speaker 1: the head with a play action once you start to
Speaker 1: make you commit to that, or they'll just spread you out.
Speaker 1: They'll go four, four or five wives, or really not
Speaker 1: four or five wives, they'll go five. How they'll go
Speaker 1: empty backfield with two tight ends out there, and they'll
Speaker 1: drop a guy back there to blog like, there's there's
Speaker 1: so many different things that they do, and I think
Speaker 1: that they're more their approach is more team oriented versus
Speaker 1: individual oriented. Okay, I like that answer, Rob. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think they're number three on the list. You know, I
Speaker 1: think they faced two top ten quarterbacks already, so it's
Speaker 1: hard to put them in front of that. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean Darnold is dealing right now. I mean he's
Speaker 1: he's been more productive than Jalen Hurts. And the wide
Speaker 1: receivers they have are as good as I mean, really
Speaker 1: almost as good as what they face. So far in
Speaker 1: terms of their their talent level. And they did trade
Speaker 1: away one tight end, Dan Arnold for that CJ. Henderson trade.
Speaker 1: But you know it still if you're in Thomas and
Speaker 1: they like Tommy Tremble, So it's a pretty balanced group overall,
Speaker 1: even without Christian McCaffrey. And there I'd put them at
Speaker 1: number three. He'll let you know how good they feel
Speaker 1: about their tight end room to trade away. Yeah, like
Speaker 1: Dan Arnold, Yeah yeah, Now Tommy Trembell is showing his worth.
Speaker 1: I mean he think he had a carry versus Houston.
Speaker 1: That's the way they feel about his athleticism. But you know, look, man,
Speaker 1: if I sit here and listen to you guys long enough,
Speaker 1: especially Isaiah Man, you every week we're you know, we're
Speaker 1: going up against the biggest test ever, and I don't
Speaker 1: I don't think Sam Donald is that business. You know.
Speaker 1: I think that offensively, he's had some success versus some
Speaker 1: opponents that couldn't get anything going. And I think, just
Speaker 1: like like you were just saying, Pee that sometimes a
Speaker 1: good offense can can help your defense. But they haven't
Speaker 1: faced any offenses at all, and the defenses have not
Speaker 1: been getting any help from them. So, like I don't
Speaker 1: want to put them in the same categories. Offensively, I
Speaker 1: can't as the Chargers are Tampa. But just relating to
Speaker 1: your question, yeah, I'm gonna have to leave it on that.
Speaker 1: But I just don't think that this is as talented
Speaker 1: as as a team as we're trying to make them
Speaker 1: out to. You still put them ahead of the Eagles.
Speaker 1: I do you have to? I mean, because Sirianni couldn't
Speaker 1: even get plays together illegal man, do come on, man,
Speaker 1: this right? I think if the Eagles were to have
Speaker 1: a quarterback, I would put them ahead of Carolina. But
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts proved again that he's not He's not there
Speaker 1: yet because it's not personnel for me. I really see.
Speaker 1: That's the thing though, what I like thee I like
Speaker 1: the Eagles personnel a lot, Nigger, I mean, I like
Speaker 1: the Eagles personnel. But I'm saying, like, it's not what
Speaker 1: everybody thinks about football. Everybody think they think about just
Speaker 1: the straight up matchups. That's not the whole game. Sure,
Speaker 1: it's not the whole game. It's not at all. These
Speaker 1: guys have talent, of course, they have talent. Every team does, right.
Speaker 1: These guys have weapons on the outside, that can hurt
Speaker 1: you if you allow them to. They also have weapons
Speaker 1: on the inside at tight end that can hurt you
Speaker 1: if you allow them to. Say the same thing last
Speaker 1: week about the Eagles, I wasn't. I mean, yeah you can,
Speaker 1: you can't say that. But again, but to that point,
Speaker 1: the officer corner, though, is the game changer. I agree,
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. It's not just about personnel, right.
Speaker 1: So yes, the Eagles has some had some guys that
Speaker 1: can hurt you if you allow them too. But it
Speaker 1: all was dependent on Hurts' ability to get out and
Speaker 1: throw the ball over your head. These guys are patient.
Speaker 1: But the last week I said, Eagles weren't patient, right,
Speaker 1: and that show that show they had, they had, they
Speaker 1: had great drives and then all of a sudden, they all,
Speaker 1: let's take a shot interception. Okay, so they not patient.
Speaker 1: A Brown got to intercepting, Gigs got interception. This team's patient,
Speaker 1: and this team has not only the personnel, but they
Speaker 1: have the offensive coordinator to spread this thing around and
Speaker 1: they will find the holes and all that. So that's
Speaker 1: why I'm saying their approach. The coaching is different, Our
Speaker 1: personnel is different, substantially on our defensive side of the ball.
Speaker 1: But what's the biggest difference our coordinator. Right. So people
Speaker 1: need to understand the power of offensive and defensive coordinates
Speaker 1: as well as special teams coordinators right, and their impact
Speaker 1: on the game, Their ability to take the talent that
Speaker 1: you have and put them in positions to be successful
Speaker 1: really can change the game. Why is Sam Arnold doing?
Speaker 1: Why is he balling here? But he wasn't balling up there?
Speaker 1: Is it just because he did he had no guys
Speaker 1: around him all of a sudden. No, every team has
Speaker 1: has has some dudes. But if your officers acordades, it
Speaker 1: doesn't the Jets. I understand that. But if your offensive
Speaker 1: coordinatortion put you in a position to be successful, you're
Speaker 1: gonna suck. No, But I subscribe to the theory of
Speaker 1: schemes make players, and I've heard you say that before
Speaker 1: and I agree. But I believe like for our defense
Speaker 1: facing them, it just feels like our base defense and
Speaker 1: what we do can best theirs as far as their
Speaker 1: scheme is concerned. And that's where dan Quinn comes in
Speaker 1: is simplifying the scheme and you have a anytime you
Speaker 1: can play from a bass and going back to Seattle.
Speaker 1: Seattle would play in the bass. They come out every
Speaker 1: game and they play zone, but you'd have the best.
Speaker 1: That's what we do on our base level, and teams
Speaker 1: couldn't do it right. So teams know right now six
Speaker 1: or two percent playing man the man. We obviously we're
Speaker 1: gonna start. We're gonna play some man. I think from
Speaker 1: the front line on that's where they're in trouble. So
Speaker 1: all of the talk about you know, what Sam Donald
Speaker 1: is gonna do and DJ now, I'm not talking about you.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying in general, what Sam Donald is gonna do,
Speaker 1: DJ more and these guys that's taking the top off
Speaker 1: the offense. I just think our basse is gonna best
Speaker 1: what they do. He's tired hearing about Sam Donald. I am.
Speaker 1: I don't like him, and I haven't brought Sam Donald up,
Speaker 1: not one time. I'm not. I'm not worried about Sam Darnold.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm worried about the dog on oc That's
Speaker 1: what I'm worried about. And helmet then I'm just he
Speaker 1: got he's talking into the helmet, he got all lives.
Speaker 1: The twenty second mark, voice of guys, it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a battle. It's gonna be a hell. I am looking
Speaker 1: forward to this game more than I was looking forward
Speaker 1: to the Tampa game and we ran. We ranked them three.
Speaker 1: Right in terms of their offense, what the Cowboys have
Speaker 1: seen so far, I'm not I'm not gassing them up
Speaker 1: that much, but I and I do think every team's
Speaker 1: gonna run into this. If the Cowboys are relatively healthy
Speaker 1: on offense, can you really match what they can do?
Speaker 1: And I there are very few teams on this schedule
Speaker 1: right now I look at and say, this is like
Speaker 1: a gonna be a fight to see who can get
Speaker 1: to thirty thirty five points? Yep. And I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't think Caroline is one of those teams. But I
Speaker 1: think there are a team you gotta watch out for,
Speaker 1: especially if you turn the ball over and if you can't,
Speaker 1: you can't take the ball away from them because they
Speaker 1: have that has not happened yet. You know, if you
Speaker 1: get into one of these efficient games, it's going to
Speaker 1: be a close game because their defense. We'll talk about
Speaker 1: it tomorrow. Yep. But maybe the after Tampa, toughest challenge
Speaker 1: that they're going to face in this season. I would
Speaker 1: agree with that conversation and yeah, we'll talk about that tomorrow.
Speaker 1: But when we come back here on the other side
Speaker 1: of the break, can the Cowboys Front four get pressure
Speaker 1: on Sam dartled even with a couple missing pieces? Right

Speaker 1: you would call in, like this my hype guy. I
Speaker 1: can't think his name, but every podcast this guy is on,
Speaker 1: love him, love his comments underneath all the But I
Speaker 1: want him to call in and do his own picks. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure at some point he probably will because
Speaker 1: he's probably listening right now. Of course, I'm just saying
Speaker 1: clear lines for him. Yeah, clear lines, everybody. So once again, tomorrow,
Speaker 1: our third segment. Of course, we go live at nine
Speaker 1: am Central time every day. Call in at the last segment.
Speaker 1: You might have to watch a little bit because it
Speaker 1: kind of differs time wise, But hey, you can be
Speaker 1: a part of our pick him segments. So there's our
Speaker 1: quick announcement. All right, what was that? I like that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it'll be a lot of fun. So we'll update the
Speaker 1: standings as well tomorrow with that too, So really quickly,
Speaker 1: rapid fire. Cowboys need to get pressure on Sam Darnold. Isaiah.
Speaker 1: You've talked about it throughout the week of You need
Speaker 1: that front forward to build pressure, even without guys like
Speaker 1: Watkins up front, without Dooran's Armstrong, of course, without DeMarcus Lawrence. Still,
Speaker 1: how do they do that? And can they do that
Speaker 1: against the Carolina front? The way in which Carolina attacks
Speaker 1: you is very difficult to get home to them until
Speaker 1: they empty out the backfield. And they want to empty
Speaker 1: out the backfield. They like to go eleven personnel and
Speaker 1: detach the tight end, which makes it look like four wides,
Speaker 1: and they still have protection back there in the form
Speaker 1: of a running back. But as soon as you go
Speaker 1: back and watch the film, as soon as they actually
Speaker 1: empty out the backfield. They are very vulnerable. I would
Speaker 1: I mean, I wonder, I actually wish. I need to
Speaker 1: go back and do the percentages and do the math
Speaker 1: on how many times they get sacked or pressure when
Speaker 1: there's only five man protection when they go five man,
Speaker 1: which they will get home because that's when they struggle.
Speaker 1: When they have another guy tight end back there or
Speaker 1: running back, they have help and they're okay, they'll still
Speaker 1: get the ball off, but as soon as they empty
Speaker 1: it out, freaking you should be on high alert. You
Speaker 1: should be happy feet okay, straight, penguin toes tapping, ready
Speaker 1: to go to go get that quarterback. Yeah, penguin toes.
Speaker 1: There's a nice imagery there. And they do try to
Speaker 1: push the ball down the field. I mean I mentioned
Speaker 1: earlier Darnold is at eight point three yards per attempt.
Speaker 1: He's trying to push the ball down the field. U
Speaker 1: We know we talked about yesterday cam Irving as their
Speaker 1: left tackle. There was some pressure on from the right
Speaker 1: side by Houston last week as well, So we'll see.
Speaker 1: I'm curious to see Modens are good tackle, but I'm
Speaker 1: curious to see what they do with Michael Parsons. Once again,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about this every single weekend, I think,
Speaker 1: at least until Tank comes back. Dan Quinn had mentioned
Speaker 1: on Tuesday, you know, the matchups with the quarterbacks the
Speaker 1: last two weeks. Mobile quarterbacks obviously hurts, and Herbert to
Speaker 1: some extent played into that. How much of it is
Speaker 1: injuries though? How much because they're hurting up front? How
Speaker 1: much of it is the matchup? We'll see. He's awfully
Speaker 1: good at it, so I wouldn't be surprised to see
Speaker 1: him do more of it now. Dan Quinn has been
Speaker 1: good with this defense and keeping these guys on the hunt,
Speaker 1: and I expect him to take the same approach Unlesia dogs.
Speaker 1: It makes hunting so much easier, easier, and you know,
Speaker 1: use that bazuka when you need to continue to get
Speaker 1: this pressure because I think all of the turnovers and
Speaker 1: everything that we love so much about this defense come
Speaker 1: from what these guys are doing upfront. But also get
Speaker 1: off the field on third down, yea, get off the field.
Speaker 1: Don't allow this offense to get any confidence to have
Speaker 1: these slow, methodical drives which the Panthers would benefit from.
Speaker 1: Get off the field on third down, you know, and
Speaker 1: you know, I think Isaiah is he makes some really
Speaker 1: great points about this offense and how potent they are.
Speaker 1: I just feel like with the weapons that we have
Speaker 1: on defense, it's gonna be it's gonna be tough sledding
Speaker 1: for them, especially if we get home, like you said,
Speaker 1: and if our intention is to get home, we gotta
Speaker 1: get them. Can't miss can't miss it. Cowboys Carolina Panthers Sunday,
Speaker 1: that'll be a matchup. But tomorrow we'll preview flipping the
Speaker 1: sides of the balls Cowboys offense with the Carolina defense,
Speaker 1: and it's say it with your chess Friday. Carolina defense
Speaker 1: currently ranks first in yards allowed per game, rushing yards
Speaker 1: allowed per game, and passing yards allowed per game. They
Speaker 1: are number one, not number two or three or four,
Speaker 1: number one in each of those three categories. So diles
Speaker 1: make fights. Let's see, yea, it's gonna be a fat
Speaker 1: these guys both both sides of the ball. They be
Speaker 1: flying around. It's terms of it's gonna be. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be a very competitive, great game to watch. I can't wait.
Speaker 1: I cannot wait, I say, even like I said, even
Speaker 1: more so than the Tampa game, Can I go ahead?
Speaker 1: Tampa was like, can we compete with those guys because
Speaker 1: they're so good. This is more like this is two
Speaker 1: highly competitive teams tests going at it. You know, this
Speaker 1: is freaking Lebron and Jordan in their heyday too. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying, I'm talking about two guys that are just
Speaker 1: just dog competitors, you know what I'm saying. They'd be
Speaker 1: going at it and who's gonna come out on top.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see what you're pick gonna be tomorrow.
Speaker 1: You're like, itta leave you just hanging like, alright, that's
Speaker 1: gonna do it for us. You're all Talking Cowboys for
Speaker 1: heck My Harrison, Isaiah stand back, Rob Phillips and Chris
Speaker 1: Beam in the backup Kyle Yeoman saying so long from
Speaker 1: the s WBC studios. We'll see you tomorrow on Talking Cowboys.
