Welcome to the latest edition of The Break. 0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:50.199 We are live from s WBC Mortgage Studios at the 0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:52.680 Star and we are prepared to get you ready for 0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:57.080 the Cowboys versus Redskins this Sunday, um and it'll be 0:00:57.120 --> 0:00:59.520 a fun game. We're gonna tell you who's gonna win 0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:01.640 at some point during this game. We got predictions coming up. 0:01:01.680 --> 0:01:04.360 We're gonna tell you about inactis and I have a 0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:07.400 whole list of questions about this game that I will 0:01:07.440 --> 0:01:11.680 ask this panel of analysts and experts so that they 0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:13.200 can give you an idea of what they think is 0:01:13.200 --> 0:01:15.039 going to happen this Sunday when the Cowboys take on 0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:19.720 the Redskins. How's everybody feeling good? Awesome? Good? I'm willing 0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:22.920 it to be fall got my flannel Friday going You 0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:25.080 figured about if I pull out the flannel, put on 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:27.319 the fine, everything else will just fall into place. It 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:29.120 doesn't matter if it's ninety five degrees. You know what 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:32.280 I noticed? I did notice that two weeks from now 0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:35.679 it's gonna start coming down a little bit. So I 0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:39.759 cannot wait because because it's exciting, them loves to stop 0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:43.039 it stopping. All right, let's let's jump in. I want 0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:45.920 to talk first about injuries. There was only one change 0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:51.240 yesterday in participation in practice. That was with probably the 0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:53.520 one that was the most important might at least in 0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:57.240 my opinion, which is Tyrone Crawford. He had misspractice earlier 0:01:57.240 --> 0:01:59.240 in the week, he was limited yesterday with the hibitry 0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:01.960 hip injury. What are you guys hearing about him? He 0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:05.760 was there today, upgraded classic vet stuff. Upgrade to limited 0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:11.560 on Thursday? There today, good sign. How about Tavon Tavan 0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:15.000 still missed yesterday? Was he back today? No? No, So 0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:19.239 the likelihood here is he's not gonna play okay, And 0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:22.000 but judging from what he was doing during practice, it 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:26.280 sure looks like Cedric Wilson's coming up, returning punts, working 0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:29.800 on special teams, you know, people get super excited, like 0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:32.200 I doubt if he does come up, he's not going 0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:36.079 to have this huge role. But insurance policy possible punt returner, 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:39.360 YadA YadA, which means somebody's getting cut, right, Yeah, that's 0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:41.520 that's the part that I heard that this morning, that 0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:44.520 there was a likelihood that that might happen. My first 0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:47.200 thought was that that just complicated things even more because 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:49.480 I was already wondering how they going to get the inactives. 0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:53.119 But now you're talking about bringing somebody up, which means 0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:56.040 somebody gets cut, and then having to put seven seven guys. 0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:58.840 Then will you bring up Quinn when he comes about? 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:01.720 That's another move? Yeah, I think that's the part of it. 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:04.440 You just have to make this move three days earlier 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:06.280 than you want to. So you think the person is 0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:07.960 going to get cut. Is the person that was going 0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:11.799 to get cut anyway? Yes, And and Eleven goes down, 0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:15.880 Wilson goes down, and Quinn goes in. Any thoughts about 0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.399 I was waiting that was gonna be do? I mean 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:25.560 the one that makes most sense is um Taco probably 0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:28.320 is it? Yeah? Because he's not playing and he's not 0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:30.320 that he's not playing, and he's not very good. And 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:33.160 but you have other guys like Adam Redman, like Brandon 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:36.960 Knight that aren't playing either. I mean, that's Brandon Knight's 0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:39.400 here for a reason, like they that they want to 0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:42.960 keep him. I guess he's versatile, he's young. I mean, 0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:45.440 I don't think they would do all that and then 0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:48.600 cut him. What don't you want to trade or try 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:51.320 to get something for a taco rather than just cut him. 0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:57.080 They maybe they have, they've tried wants him. There's somebody 0:03:57.120 --> 0:04:00.320 that must want him. Maybe not for trade though, yeah, 0:04:01.000 --> 0:04:04.120 what's the price. The problem, you know, the problem with 0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:06.680 guys like that is like we sit here, we're like, oh, 0:04:06.720 --> 0:04:09.720 he's gonna get cut, and teams know that, Like they 0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:11.440 they're like, why would we give you something for a 0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:13.720 guy you're gonna have to get rid of eventually anyway. 0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:17.160 That's like, it's funny to me, and we don't I 0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:18.640 don't know if y'all want to talk about it, like 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:22.640 the Minka Fitzpatrick's stuff any times I had that. But 0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:26.159 but you know, people dog taco for months and months 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:28.840 and months and then when an opportunity rises, they're like, 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:31.440 what about taco? We can trade him. We can trade 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:34.039 him for like all of a sudden, he's valuable because 0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:35.960 you want something like That's not how it works. And 0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:39.240 I don't know if teams would want his contract rather 0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:41.000 you just cut him because they don't have want this 0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:44.480 guaranteed contract, right, you know, he's first round money, and 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:48.320 they'd rather just we'll pay him what we think he's worth, Yeah, 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:52.000 which is probably significantly less than first round money. I bet, 0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:54.880 I bet you they've had a few conversations about Taco 0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:57.840 and then just nothing materialized. You know, Adam Redman makes 0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:01.360 more sense, I guess. I mean, but if it's not 0:05:01.680 --> 0:05:05.440 let's just say, if it's not Taco, and I don't 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:08.560 I haven't heard anything that suggests that it will be, UM, 0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:13.760 then I would Redmond, Chris Covington, and Brandon Knight are 0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:16.200 like the three most logical options. I don't think you 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:18.880 would want to cut Covington because he just brought him 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:20.600 up for special team. Do you need him for the 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:24.440 special teams? But I mean just looking around trying to 0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:26.320 find somebody that makes sense. He's a guy. I mean, 0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:29.000 how many backup guards at centers do you need? Yeah? Exactly? 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:30.640 That was Yeah, that was the point. I mean Frederick 0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:33.799 and Zach Martin and Connor Williams, you know, first round, 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:37.040 early second round picks, Pro Bowl type guys. And then 0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:40.200 how many backups do you need there? Joe Looney, Sue Philo, 0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:43.120 Adam Redmond, Brandon Knight. Could you cut Davier Sue of 0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:45.800 Philo because he's at this point he's got to be 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:48.680 a vested veteran, right, so you could cut him and 0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:51.160 bring him back and not have to worry about losing 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:53.240 him to waivers, which you would which you probably wanted 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:56.400 to be active this week, right, Yeah, he was active 0:05:56.440 --> 0:06:00.000 last week. I'm saying, I'm just spitballing. I'm just yeah, 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:03.400 there aren't very many names that make a ton of sense, right, So, 0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:06.960 I mean, does Cavon factor into this? Well, you do 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:11.280 have the safeties are coming back, Darian Thompson's back, hold 0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:13.840 that one for just a little bit more once Wilson 0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:16.680 gets back. Yeah, so you'd want to feel comfortable with 0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:19.440 all four that those two are back, and then you 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:23.320 would maybe make that decisions possible. Yeah, I mean, I 0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:25.440 don't know if they want to carry five safeties, right. 0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:29.560 All right, let's let's talk about inactives, and I'm gonna 0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:31.920 do this. Obviously, we don't know who this cut might 0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:34.400 be that would affect maybe this list, because you would 0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:37.280 assume the person that's gonna be cut, if they're gonna 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:39.680 make the move to bring someone up, would be someone 0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:41.560 that was likely going to be on the inactives list. 0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:43.960 So with that being said, let's try to get to seven. 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.440 I think Tavon, Louke Gifford we pretty much know right, 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:50.960 Adam Redman and Brandon and I were both inactive last week, 0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:53.400 so assuming they're still on the team, they would be 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:56.839 two more. And so as I look at I think 0:06:56.880 --> 0:07:01.200 you have basically three spots for five people. Uh, Taco, 0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:07.640 Joe Jackson, Tristan Hill, Darian Thompson, Donovan Wilson. Guys agree 0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:10.200 with that. I think Donovan Wilson's definitely down there. Okay, 0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:12.280 you take him that, That makes five, So you need 0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:15.280 three more seven, I'm sorry, two more out of that 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:19.080 list of four. Technically you really need to get to 0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:21.440 eight because one of these guys got to get cut, right, 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:26.119 So you think they keep Tristan Hill inactive. I would 0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:30.600 imagine him. I would imagine that staytive, I would think, so, 0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:34.320 I just didn't see him being ready yet, although he 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:37.000 still he needs that because that's the only way you 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:40.120 grow in this game is being out there. But I 0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:43.080 don't know. With them struggling last week, I mean, do 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:46.400 you want to add somebody that's not add experience? Do 0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:48.240 you want to take that kind of risk? Or I 0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:52.000 need keep more more guys this week? I think I 0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:56.880 would probably sit Joe Jackson, and yeah, i'd probably put 0:07:56.920 --> 0:08:01.720 Taco back up, so you make Taco one of them, 0:08:01.760 --> 0:08:06.280 But I put Joe Jackson down, I would I don't 0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:08.840 have a particularly strong feeling about it. I mean Joe 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:11.320 Jackson didn't do a lot, which I mean you kind 0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:13.840 of figured he wouldn't. I don't you know, if they 0:08:13.840 --> 0:08:16.040 want to give Taco or Tristan or both of them 0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:19.440 a shot and put two other guys down, that's fine. 0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:23.200 I mean somebody brought that up the other day. I 0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:26.840 don't think he'll be inactive. But like Dorance Armstrong, like 0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:30.200 had he I mean he didn't blow anybody away in 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:32.560 the opener, and didn't I mean, so honestly, I don't 0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:34.520 know that you say you could. A whole lot of 0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:38.360 guys didn't really blow anybody away. I mean they played 0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:40.840 the game that it's a little bit it's a little 0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:42.880 bit weird that that we that everybody's kind of has 0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:44.560 this opinion that the Divans didn't play well. I mean, 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:47.520 they did hold them to ten points in that last touchdown. 0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:50.040 I don't really count like that. So I mean, I 0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:53.480 think they played fine, but nobody was making outstanding plays, 0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:56.200 Like there weren't a lot of outstanding plays defensively in 0:08:56.240 --> 0:08:58.000 that game. So I don't know if I don't know 0:08:58.040 --> 0:09:00.200 if it's a little bit unfair to say able Toes 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:01.520 didn't really do much because there are a whole bunch 0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:03.480 of guys they really didn't do fair things, you know. 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:06.760 But I mean there's no reason to sit him. I mean, 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:08.560 there's no reason not to sit him. Then, I mean 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:11.520 he can definitely sit. I guess that's really more. My 0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:14.960 point is like other than other than like malague, other 0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:18.200 than the obvious, like starting for you could mix and 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:20.880 match that thing however you want. Like if you decide 0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:23.360 to put Taco up and put Armstrong down, I don't 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:25.920 think that's crazy. If you decide to sit Taco and 0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:27.920 Hill again, I don't think that's crazy either. I mean, 0:09:27.960 --> 0:09:33.680 it's just he is playing. He hasn't tweeted anything wrong today? Yeah? 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:38.360 How about this game? He I don't know what he tweeted. 0:09:38.480 --> 0:09:41.079 Was he tweeted something to the effect of the waiting 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:44.319 game or sitting here waiting? Is that kind of thing? 0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:50.640 He hasn't tweeted us he did last week super probably 0:09:50.679 --> 0:09:53.440 either this evening or tomorrow, right, Yeah, and so keep 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:58.959 your eyes open. I think timeline, I think there's another sit. 0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:01.720 How many safeties did they have active last week? Just three? 0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:05.800 So I mean technically they could do that again unless 0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:08.120 they think Thompson's ready to sit two safeties. Yeah, but 0:10:08.200 --> 0:10:11.520 Heath was banged up with I don't know, maybe you 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:14.480 don't do that. Thompson's abilities on special teams. If he's 0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:17.880 ready to go, that could be what helps you cut 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.720 Covington to get Cedric Wilson on the roster if if 0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:23.720 you want to ye, so too bad for Covington he 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:26.280 moves up. But he's gonna get paid either way, because 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:28.480 if you're on the roster on Tuesday, then you get 0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:31.760 a game check. But I think just by watching practice 0:10:31.800 --> 0:10:34.160 that we've seen, I think Cavon and Darry and Thompson 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:37.080 are gonna be up. Yeah, so do I sorry, We'll 0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:38.760 see I mean, this is a tough one. That's not 0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:40.320 an easy one to do. I don't think we came 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:42.600 up with answers. We really did not know. I mean, 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:46.000 we have five we know, Tavon Luke, Adam Redman, Brandon Knight, 0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:49.920 and Donovan Wilson. We think are blocks there, right, assuming 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:51.880 one of them doesn't get cut and then and then 0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:54.120 you need two more and it would be two more 0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:57.760 that probably are I would guests throw into defensive linemen. Now, 0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:00.079 so you take your choice between Taco Joe Jackson in 0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:02.880 Tristan Hill, right, Sorry, we can't be more exact than that. 0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:06.720 I bet Tristan Hill is up this week, you do, Yeah, 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:10.240 he's gonna say, kind I kind of expect the opposite. 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:11.640 I kind of expect him to be the one that 0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:14.040 would be down with those other guys up because I 0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:16.000 think they look at the tackle positions, say we got 0:11:16.240 --> 0:11:19.360 ends that can play tackle, and they do in Nickel's situations. 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.840 So I think they look at it as we got 0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:24.200 three tackles for our base, and then we got other 0:11:24.240 --> 0:11:27.280 guys at play tackle in those other situations. So I 0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:28.719 don't know, I just have a feeling he's going to 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:31.520 be active this don't know anything. Maybe all right, let's 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:33.000 take our first break. When we come back, I have 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:34.920 some questions for you guys.

You know what you think will 0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:06.000 happen this Sunday. Question Number one Redskins player that will 0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:09.600 most likely cause problems for the Dallas defense is more 0:14:09.679 --> 0:14:12.360 likely to cause problems for the Dallas defense. I'll give 0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:14.040 you a couple of names. Feel free to fill in 0:14:14.080 --> 0:14:16.080 whatever name you'd like, if that if that name is 0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:21.720 not listed, Chris Thompson, Adrian Peterson, Vernon Davis, Terry Terry McLaren, 0:14:22.200 --> 0:14:27.080 or Trey Quinn. Nick I said it yesterday. I think 0:14:27.080 --> 0:14:30.120 Thompson is the one that that probably will cause more issues. 0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:34.160 So I'm one for one in this game. I said 0:14:34.160 --> 0:14:36.760 it was Ingram last week. He caused a little He 0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:39.640 can't cause problems, but he caught a lot of pass yea, 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:43.080 yeah he did. He's problems for fantasy owners on the 0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:44.880 other teams. But he did a nice jole. But he 0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:46.640 didn't really hurt him on bad. But Thompson's a guy 0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:48.840 that could do that short stuff. You could make it 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:52.320 some you know, bigger plays, big games. He'd be my guy. 0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:58.120 Amber Um, I would go with Peterson, And I'm just 0:14:58.200 --> 0:15:01.920 going with that because since I do some breaking down 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:04.840 plays and I was looking at some plays from him 0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:10.880 going against the Cowboys. The offensive line is able to 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:14.160 stop the D line, the Cowboys D line. I mean 0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:17.760 it took. There was one play where it was perfect. 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:20.840 They created this hole for him to go right in it, 0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:24.280 and then the Marcus Lawrence was all the way to 0:15:24.360 --> 0:15:27.880 the I always get confused when you look at on 0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:31.040 the right and he just took off. It took for him, 0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:33.960 like not even the linebackers were able to stop him. 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:37.440 So based on that, I would if they're able to 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:40.280 do that again and just keep kind of opening those 0:15:40.360 --> 0:15:42.760 kind of holes for him. He's able to run and 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:44.960 run good and it will get to you. I think 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:48.440 that the Cowboys should be careful with him and make 0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:52.720 sure that the linebackers are being more proactive there on 0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:56.960 the field to get to him. Dave, I'll stick with Quinn. 0:15:57.000 --> 0:16:01.120 I said that on Wednesday, and it sounds like Byron 0:16:01.200 --> 0:16:03.200 Jones is going to start this game, which so I 0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:05.560 think Anthony Brown will draw him again. He did a 0:16:05.560 --> 0:16:08.360 good job last year. But just his skill set, you know, 0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:10.960 he's not he's not gonna go down downfield on you, 0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:15.560 but he's you know that short area quickness, create separation 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:19.520 and pick up third and short, and that's just demoralizing. 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:24.200 That's so I'm watching that. Okay, the Redskins player who 0:16:24.280 --> 0:16:27.160 is more likely to cause problems for the Dallas offense 0:16:27.400 --> 0:16:32.040 is here's some names, Ryan Kerrigan, Deron Payne, Montes Sweat, 0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:38.600 Quentin Dunbar, Landon Collins, Dominic Rodgers, Cromarty, Josh Norman, all 0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:42.520 players that are frontline players for them, players that are 0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:44.880 difference makers for them. Which one do you think will 0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:48.800 cause more problems for the Cowboys? Will start with you, Dave, Um, 0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:52.640 can I cheat? I'm gonna cheat one. I'm gonna say 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:57.480 Kerrigan because that's Elsie's guy. That's and and that's a 0:16:57.520 --> 0:17:00.880 battle every year, he's relentless like he If Lyle Collins 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:03.440 doesn't play well, he has the potential to wreck the game. 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:09.080 But I'm really fascinated to see how pain does because 0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:11.760 that'll be a great barometer for where Travis Frederick is. 0:17:11.920 --> 0:17:14.080 Like if it was just Connor Williams dealing with that 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:17.040 on his own, that would be troublesome, But Frederick is 0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:21.200 there to help and hopefully he plays well. If they 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:23.920 neutralize him, then that is seems like a pretty good 0:17:23.920 --> 0:17:27.320 sign about where Frederick is in his recovery. But I 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:29.880 think if, like I said, if LC doesn't play well, 0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:34.000 Karrigan could screw this up pretty bad. I'm gonna go 0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:36.880 with carryan to Ryan Kerrigan. I've seen him, I've seen 0:17:36.920 --> 0:17:41.200 what he can do. I honestly didn't realize that Lyle 0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:43.800 Collins had made that comment about him, you know when 0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:46.520 you mentioned yesterday that he said that he's probably one 0:17:46.560 --> 0:17:51.240 of his toughest guys to go up again. So that 0:17:51.280 --> 0:17:55.280 doesn't make me feel better about this matchup. But hopefully 0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:58.480 Lyle has been able to gain some more strength during 0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:01.720 the offseason and be able to hold him down better 0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:04.760 than what he's done in the past. Um, I'm gonna 0:18:04.800 --> 0:18:07.200 go with Karagan also because I think that's what Jason 0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:10.520 Garrett would do. You know, if if you watch Friday's practice, 0:18:10.560 --> 0:18:14.720 it's become it's not just Friday. Every day. Jason does 0:18:14.720 --> 0:18:17.080 his little thing at the end of the stretch where 0:18:17.119 --> 0:18:19.879 he'll pull one guy up there, and it's becoming like 0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:22.560 a big deal, even though it's not really that goes 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:25.000 up there, and he does like the the leads the 0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:28.439 charge for their you know, final five jumping jacks or whatever, 0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:30.640 but the way, you know, he introduces it like it's 0:18:30.640 --> 0:18:33.240 a big deal. He made sure that Lyle Collins was 0:18:33.240 --> 0:18:35.159 his guy today, and I think that there's more to 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:37.560 it than than just saying, oh, he's the one I picked, 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:39.800 here's your challenge. He knows that this is a challenging 0:18:39.800 --> 0:18:41.920 week for him. Up the game, he tries to. I 0:18:41.960 --> 0:18:43.760 don't know if he can pump lyle up. He seems 0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:46.520 pretty even kill either way. But yeah, I think so. 0:18:46.560 --> 0:18:48.960 I think the karagainst the one then, like Dave said, 0:18:49.000 --> 0:18:51.520 could wreck the game more than any anybody. All Right, 0:18:51.640 --> 0:18:55.359 next question, where will the Cowboys find more success? The 0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:58.359 run game or the past game? Last week, I think 0:18:58.400 --> 0:19:01.600 to everyone's surprised they aired it out and they found 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:04.159 a lot of success there running the balls. What they 0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:06.560 do though this week, where do you think the bread 0:19:06.560 --> 0:19:09.399 and butter will be? We'll start with you, Amber. I 0:19:09.440 --> 0:19:12.680 think we're gonna start seeing Zeke more and he's gonna 0:19:12.680 --> 0:19:14.960 have a better game. He's gonna I mean, not that 0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:16.959 he had a horrible game last time, but you know, 0:19:17.280 --> 0:19:22.119 getting closer to Zeke being Zeke. I don't want to 0:19:22.119 --> 0:19:24.680 get too excited about the passing game. It was so 0:19:24.960 --> 0:19:27.960 great last game and he's still wonderful, so I'm like, 0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:31.080 I'll probably be a little disappointed this time around. Although 0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:34.160 these they have all these different weapons and Kellen Moore 0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:37.359 keeps saying that he has more things in his pockets. 0:19:37.760 --> 0:19:41.120 So but I think they'll probably end up relying more 0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:44.960 on the running game, all right, Nick, I think that 0:19:45.080 --> 0:19:47.399 it will be the passing game, but still it's because 0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:49.600 of the running game. I mean, the running game has 0:19:49.720 --> 0:19:52.879 has been proven that it's good, and Zeke is like 0:19:52.920 --> 0:19:54.359 one of the best in the league, or is the 0:19:54.400 --> 0:19:57.960 best in the league. So I just feel like it's 0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:00.320 still gonna be the passing game. Of a product of that, 0:20:00.359 --> 0:20:01.920 They're gonna have to do what they can to stop 0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:04.480 the run, and I think because of that, those guys 0:20:04.480 --> 0:20:09.160 will still get open. Is getting in their pressuring Dak. 0:20:09.320 --> 0:20:15.080 You know, I think it. Well, we'll see. I mean, 0:20:15.119 --> 0:20:17.200 I think that you got to get the ball out quick. 0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:19.000 I think they have good, better route runners than they've 0:20:19.040 --> 0:20:22.560 had before. I think the passing game will just benefit 0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:25.120 off of that. And I don't think one game will 0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:28.520 change what defenses due to say, well we got to 0:20:28.520 --> 0:20:30.760 stop that. It'll be interesting to see. I mean, it'll 0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:32.840 be close. I still think the passing game will have 0:20:32.880 --> 0:20:36.600 a strong day. If I mean, if Karagan doesn't eat Dak, 0:20:36.720 --> 0:20:40.080 then I think the passing game is gonna look really good. 0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:42.920 I don't I don't like these said, I don't like 0:20:43.000 --> 0:20:45.560 these cornerbacks. And the fun thing not trying to throw 0:20:45.640 --> 0:20:49.879 shade at any previous Cowboys receivers, but like the old 0:20:50.880 --> 0:20:54.399 Josh Norman versus Dez, like is he gonna travel with Dez? 0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:57.200 Who cares? It doesn't matter. They're all gonna line up 0:20:57.240 --> 0:20:59.960 everywhere like Cooper. It feels kind of good. It feel 0:21:00.520 --> 0:21:03.760 it feels amazing. Cooper's gonna line up outside and in 0:21:03.800 --> 0:21:07.080 the slot on both sides. Gallop's gonna move around. It 0:21:07.119 --> 0:21:10.960
