She was 0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:36.280 diagnosed at three UM and they're just telling the story 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:39.480 of her um and my wife and my wife's battle 0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:41.639 with it within her family.

But she's 0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:10.800 it's kind of cool to see your daughter be strong, 0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:12.600 you know, and let other people see her be strong. 0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:15.079 So I just hope that story inspire somebody else.

It really is really cool. 0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:29.080 I was doing the same thing. I had my phone 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:31.520 on the side. I was trying to like get make 0:03:31.560 --> 0:03:33.280 sure I was getting ready and drive and safe, but 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:35.360 I was watching. It was really, really great feature and 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:39.920 definitely worth sharing and going and checking out. But let's 0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:44.120 get into Cowboys news and notes. Definitely some reaction to 0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:47.800 the Jalen Smith news yesterday. Since we last talked, our 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:51.080 dream of Stefan Gilmore coming to the Dallas Cowboys was 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:54.600 snipped aside. It's the Carolina Panthers jumping the gun and 0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:59.520 acquiring Gilmore, the former All Pro cornerback, with a six 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:02.240 round pick. That's all it took to take him from 0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:06.000 New England and put him with the Carolina Panthers. But Rob, 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:08.880 what else went on yesterday was the practices ended and 0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:11.000 you got to talk to a little a couple of players. 0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:14.160 Well some good news. You got no COVID editions and 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:18.640 you've got Scott O'Neil and Bradley and I off reserve COVID. 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:21.360 That was positive news. On the timeline. Heck you saw that. 0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:26.560 Thanks for the retweet. Zeke didn't practice yesterday. He's not 0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:28.760 sure what he did in the game. He's got some 0:04:28.760 --> 0:04:31.760 some tightness, some stiffness in his knee. It's better yesterday. 0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:35.280 Thinks he'll practice today. We'll see, but I don't think 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:38.080 there's a concern about him playing in the game. And 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.200 you know, Mary Cooper didn't practice, but they're trying to 0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:43.760 manage him for this game as well. And Trayvon Diggs 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:46.719 another player of note. I guess he had full practice 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:50.000 with the back tightness from last game. So overall injury 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:52.480 report looks pretty good. Man, And the Giants had a 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:59.440 lot of guys DMP yesterday, jab Jabril Peppers, Sterling Shepherd 0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:05.160 did not practice, Darius Slayton hamstring, Cayton Smith knee, Andrew 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:09.240 Thomas foot, Leonard Williams knee. So these are guys that 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:11.480 you think are gonna be big time contributors that did 0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:13.960 not practice, Yester. I'm sure obviously some of these guys 0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:16.880 will come off today. But that's interesting. That's a lot 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:19.640 of big names for Giants fans. I mean, Williams and 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:23.080 Jabrill Peppers. Peppers didn't play in the fourth quarter or 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:26.000 overtime of that Saints when he did, however, go out 0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:28.279 and take the coin toss, y'all see that video. That 0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:30.880 was amazing. I was one of the funniest moments. I 0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:32.560 don't know if I've ever seen in the end the 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:34.960 capitalized on it. They did, they did, they did. They 0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:38.120 took that moment. Was it the Al Harris? Was it? 0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:42.240 I want the ball and I'm a score. Yeah, let's 0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:47.120 not talk about see I don't like I'll pick that. 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:50.040 Were you on that team? I was no, no, this 0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:53.360 was like something like that. I was watching it though, 0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:55.279 so as he said he want the ball, We're gonna score, 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:57.680 I was like, no, no, no, do that, don't do that. 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:00.719 Next you know, Al, here is a pick. He gets 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.360 to the house, the band was playing. Good thing. He's 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:08.159 on our team now here coach Dv's coach. So that's 0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:10.280 all positive news. What did you guys think about the 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:14.400 reaction from the Jalen Smith releasing and more notably late 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:19.200 and vander esh I mean, unbelievable response from him. And sure, 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:21.280 we kind of talked about it yesterday. We didn't know 0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:23.680 whether or not it was a surprise in the locker 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:25.840 room and just how guys would take it, and it 0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:29.839 was kind of a mixed bag of what we saw 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:32.880 reaction wise. Yesterday. Of course, Michael Parsons took to Twitter 0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:36.240 with Emmanuel a show and then late vander Esh got 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:41.080 after really everyone for a certain amount of time. Isaiah, 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:44.160 where did you see that reaction and how it kind 0:06:44.200 --> 0:06:46.600 of compared to what you anticipated? Um? I mean, I 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:48.440 don't know. I feel like everybody has a has a 0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:50.280 high high regard for him. You know, I don't think 0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:54.200 that there's any um discontentment and within the team, I 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:57.080 think everybody respects respects him, respects what he's brought to 0:06:57.160 --> 0:06:59.880 this team, in this organization. Um. So when you see 0:06:59.880 --> 0:07:02.560 all the negative talk about him, obviously people who care 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:04.960 about him are gonna feel some type of way about that. So, 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:08.520 you know, high high respect for those guys who obviously 0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:11.960 have his back, and kudos to him for getting picked 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:15.239 up on another squad. I loved it. I love seeing 0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:19.160 Laton vander Esh goes scorched earth on people that were 0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:22.120 throwing those negative things around about Jalen because these guys 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.040 that livelihoods are at steak, and obviously in the national 0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:27.480 media a lot of times guys just talked to get 0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:30.400 attention and get likes and all followers and all that, 0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:33.200 and this people's livelihood and families are at steak. And 0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:35.000 if you've been in the NFL A part of it, 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:39.080 NFL family. That's a constant worry for coaches, wives, players, 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:41.800 wives all the time. So I think what he did 0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:44.240 was hit the nail on the head by basically letting 0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:46.280 people know, Man, this is all livelihoods and I don't 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:48.560 come to your job and tell you you're not producing. 0:07:49.240 --> 0:07:51.920 But you know, again, it's a double led swards because 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:55.440 you have the fans and you have everybody else that 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:57.840 doesn't feel like you're entitled to that opinion. So it's 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:01.240 it's just gonna be that way and always has been. Bow. Yeah, 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:03.840 not to get all existential here, but I thought I 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:06.040 thought he brought up a you know problem we've got 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:09.200 in society with social media and bullying and all this stuff. 0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:11.480 And you know, if you have kids, you worry about 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:13.320 stuff like that. And look, I know that, I know 0:08:13.360 --> 0:08:16.160 the professional athletes. I know he's getting paid millions of 0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:19.520 dollars and with that, people think they're not human and 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:21.880 they don't. It doesn't matter what we say. And I 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:25.480 think Twitter, Twitter is a virtual dogpile. I mean, it's 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:28.160 it's an opportunity for people to just jump on something 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:32.079 and hide and you know, don't have to. You can 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:34.559 put an egg as your profile and all that stuff, 0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:38.080 and like, look, there's been moments where he has struggled, 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:39.760 there's no doubt about it. But I think he is 0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:42.240 bringing up the fact that, yeah, did it get out 0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:45.559 of control a little bit? Did it become like just 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.760 fun for everybody to do that? Yeah? I mean, and 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:50.160 at the end of the day, I mean, he saw 0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.600 his teammate's reaction. I think a lot of guys were shocked. 0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:57.080 Zeke was shocked. Guys. I'm sure disappointed too. I mean, 0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:01.600 I forgot that Zeke was on the field when Jalen 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:03.880 tore his knee up at Notre Dame. They were playing 0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:06.000 Ohio State, and Zeke came to the middle of the 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.839 field and dapped him up. And they had a relationship 0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:11.599 before that, you know. So I think guys that have 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:13.360 been in this locker room, especially as long as Heke had, 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:15.640 they know everything he's been through. And that's part of 0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:19.000 the disappointment too, because it's a he's got a complicated legacy. 0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:21.679 If you look overall at his time here, it's a 0:09:21.720 --> 0:09:24.920 really cool story. It just it didn't end well and 0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:27.920 he didn't play well enough to keep playing as much 0:09:27.960 --> 0:09:29.800 as he did, and you know, and to keep earning 0:09:29.840 --> 0:09:31.920 the contract that he had. That's that's just kind of 0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:34.240 the cold business of the league. And Michael Parson said, 0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:36.040 this is my welcome to the NFL moment. You know 0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:38.800 that this is a tough business here. It is tough, 0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:41.840 and like you said, it is so complex with Jaylen 0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:44.520 because of the story and his resurgence from the injury 0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:47.000 and his ability to go back and actually play football. 0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:48.960 A lot of people didn't think he was gonna play 0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:51.920 football again following the injury that he had as a 0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:55.000 senior at Notre Dame. And he turns around, he gets 0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:58.400 drafted in the second round, doesn't play for a year, 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:00.240 and then comes back and he works as well way 0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:02.200 to a Pro Bowl. He got to a Pro Bowl. 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:04.959 Whether what are no matter what you think about what 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:08.719 that Pro Bowl means, you still got there. Yep. And 0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:11.400 I mean it is a pretty unbelievable story. And I'm 0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:13.920 as guilty as anybody of being very critical of Jalen. 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:17.760 We all are critical. If you can be critical, there's 0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:20.200 there's a fine line, right right. I think you're about 0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:22.280 to hit on this in terms of being critical, you know, 0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:25.319 being analytical, in terms of your opinions of somebody's play, 0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:27.280 because that's what we do, right, you know, we get 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:29.679 paid to talk about guys plays and what they did 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.000 and didn't do, the effect they had, effect they didn't have. 0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:34.360 But there's a there's a fine line, right then, there's 0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:37.560 a fine line between analyzing what they've done and then bullying, 0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:41.160 right or degrading or whatever you however, whatever term you 0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:42.640 want to apply towards it. And I think that's the 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:44.719 step that a lot of people took. Um. You know, 0:10:44.800 --> 0:10:46.800 you can have your strong opinions in favor of or 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:50.679 against whatever, but there's a there's a definite line that 0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:53.679 that is crossed. And when you started attacking somebody's life 0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:56.000 with whom, when you started attacking um, you know, their 0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:58.080 ability to go out there and do what they need 0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:00.800 to do without you're you on that or conscience you know, 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:03.160 and those those type of things. There's there's a beatdown regardless, 0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:05.680 you know, to your point, guys are human. Guys are human. 0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:08.599 And this story's not done. I don't don't think that 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:10.560 we don't have a chance of facing his new team 0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:14.160 in the playoffs. Yeah, this story is not done. Yeah, 0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:16.719 and that's the story he got picked up immediately, so 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:19.200 I mean, that's just a testament to him, no matter 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:21.240 what you think about him. So he's on another team, 0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:22.959 let's go. I don't know if we've said this, but 0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:25.920 he went to the Green Bay Packers. Apparently this morning 0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:28.920 it was reported that he reports or agreed to terms 0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:32.240 with the Green Bay Packers. So that's where Jalen Smith 0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:35.240 is headed, and the Cowboys have to move on without him. 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:38.320 Going into Week five of the NFL season, the New 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:41.440 York Giants are on the docket. Heckmno, you've been hitting 0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:45.960 the film as hard as anybody as always. Yeah, for sure, 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:50.920 Cowboys Cowboys offense versus the Giants defense. Oh wait, flip it, sorry, 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:53.760 excuse me. Giants offense versus the Cowboys defense. What do 0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:57.079 you see this Cowboys defense trying to take advantage of 0:11:57.200 --> 0:12:01.679 this week? I love looking at Jason Carrots offense, and 0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:03.839 you know the fact that it hadn't changed a whole 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:06.200 lot from when he was here. He used those tight 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:11.240 end sets, those as half backs, fullbacks, and so he's 0:12:11.240 --> 0:12:13.480 gonna overload one side of the ball. He's gonna use 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:16.920 those bunch sets, bring everybody in tight. He passes out 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:18.679 of him, he runs out of him. I think for 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:22.000 this defense man, they just have to stay aggressive, have 0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:25.839 to stay aggressive. Daniel Jones is an athlete, regardless of 0:12:25.920 --> 0:12:27.599 what you think about him. He is a kind of 0:12:27.640 --> 0:12:29.560 guy that if you give him some space, he can 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:31.520 get out, he can get gone. So the same thing 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:34.320 I think that would apply with the Jalen Hurts, as 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.440 far as you have to watch him and not allow 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:38.839 him to hurt you with his legs and make him 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:42.360 stay in the pocket. Those are my that's literally my 0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:46.040 only concern. I think the big playability of the Giants, 0:12:46.200 --> 0:12:48.240 we can't allow it to hurt us. We can't allow 0:12:48.320 --> 0:12:50.320 them to get off get those big plays because when 0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:53.199 you watch the Saints games, the Saints should be so 0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:57.600 upset with themselves about that loss because they dominated them 0:12:57.960 --> 0:12:59.839 and then they let him off the hook with a 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:02.520 big play. And so that's just something we can't afford. 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:05.320 And that's where we are defensively. We're just giving up 0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:08.800 too many big plays. Yeah, I agree, I think that 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:11.760 this team should be relatively easy to handle. But again, 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:13.920 like I said yesterday, you need to respect your opponent 0:13:13.960 --> 0:13:17.160 and understand and identify who can hurt you. Daniel Jones 0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:19.400 can hurt you because he can extend drives. He can't 0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:21.079 hurt you because he runs a four three or anything 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:22.480 like that. But he can hurt you because guess what 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:24.719 on third and third and six if you don't pay 0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:26.600 attention to him, guess what, He's gonna move those chains 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:28.640 and then now to have another three downs to try 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:30.040 to move his chains and try to get close to 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:32.559 the ends. So that's the threat that he proposes. He 0:13:32.600 --> 0:13:34.439 doesn't have a cannon of an arm. He does. He 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:36.679 doesn't have blazing speed, but he does. He does have 0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:39.520 understanding this year on how to move the chains and 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:41.920 how to make proper decisions and how to use his 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:44.440 assets to put these guys in a good situation. Last 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:47.240 last year, the year before, he was a turnover magnet. Right, 0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:51.440 He has two turnovers this year one interception right, right, 0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:53.959 So he's making he's making better decisions. I don't know 0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:55.679 if that's Jason Garrett of fat whatever it may be, 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:58.520 but he's being better for that for that team. The 0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:01.120 way that you stop these guys and on this side 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:03.040 of the ball is not allowing san Quan to get 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:05.080 the say Quan to get busy. If you allow him 0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:07.160 to get the ground game going, it opens everything up 0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:09.360 for Garrett. Garret would kill you on play action. Now, 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:11.200 Garre would kill you on play action if you allow 0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:12.720 him to get a running game. That's when he did. 0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:15.680 That's what they want to do. That's when Garrett becomes dangerous. 0:14:15.679 --> 0:14:17.120 Garrett's not gonna get hurt you if you just have 0:14:17.160 --> 0:14:18.840 to sit back to them throw all day long. Right, 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:20.880 But when you don't know what's coming in terms of 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.120 run play, because of the twelve personnel that he uses 0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:25.080 and how he uses those guys, they can hurt you. 0:14:25.360 --> 0:14:27.760 And now with their additions that they that they've that 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:31.960 they have this from this offseason, right, they added um Ross, 0:14:32.280 --> 0:14:34.120 Right now they have they got John Ross. You know 0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.800 you dub again, right? The young Utub boys keep showing 0:14:36.880 --> 0:14:39.800 up four two baby three out of four games. Um, 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:41.960 but he runs, yeah, he runs a four two. So 0:14:42.600 --> 0:14:44.280 play around and let these guys get the run game 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:45.760 going if you want to, and we want to be 0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:48.520 aggressive and stop that run. Now you're walking another man 0:14:48.600 --> 0:14:50.440 down into the box. So now you have three guys 0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:52.760 that defend deep. He will run by any of the 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:54.720 guys that we have on our defense if we don't 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.120 pay attention. What do you have a fifty two yard 0:14:57.200 --> 0:15:01.840 touchdown last week, yes, and like there was no stick 0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:03.840 on that route either, that was simply just just running, 0:15:03.960 --> 0:15:06.160 just running by you. They've got some wide receiver depth, 0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:09.520 you know, adding him and Tony the rookie, and I 0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:12.320 think I'm not sure if you mentioned some of the injuries. 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:15.800 I don't know if Slayton and even Shepherd can be 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:18.320 back this week, that's still questionable. But even so, they've 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:23.120 got they've got weapons. Kenny Galladay last year or last week, yep, 0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:25.640 and then John Ross. I mean, they've got six legitimate 0:15:25.720 --> 0:15:28.720 receivers that you can rotate in and out. None of 0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:31.440 them are as as dangerous as some of the guys 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:34.560 you face so far. None of them are Keenan Allen Evans. 0:15:34.640 --> 0:15:37.000 But what they do they do well, right, So, so 0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:40.520 Galladay is their possession guy. Galladay is gonna get six 0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:44.320 to eight catches a game, just period. Just know, he's 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:46.280 gonna probably gonna get ten ten attempts thrown his way. 0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:48.480 He's gonna get six to eight catches at least. Right, 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:50.880 that's what he does. He's their possession guy. Ross is there, 0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:53.040 take the top off guy right, and then a new 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:55.840 guy freaking Tony right, Tony right, Yeah, Darius Tones, he 0:15:56.120 --> 0:16:00.040 is shift t yeah is Oh my gosh. He's the 0:16:00.120 --> 0:16:01.800 guy that they want to get the ball to five 0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:04.840 yards right, easy, high precision pass five yards, and then 0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:06.600 he wants to get loose. He wants to embarrass your 0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:08.480 whole defense and turn it into a big play. So 0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:11.160 they have those those aspects. They got the short yardage, 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:13.200 shifty guy that can make make a big play happen. 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:14.880 They got Ross I can take the top off. And 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:16.840 then they got Galladay. Who there, who's every guy that 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:19.760 just to move the chains? Respect him? Yeah? For me. 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:23.920 Evan Ingraham and the tight end Evan Egrahm is somebody 0:16:23.960 --> 0:16:26.400 that we have to keep an eye on. He's inconsistent. 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:29.760 Watch him in other games. He's inconsistent, but some when 0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:33.120 he's way, somehow when he gets the AT and T Stadium, 0:16:33.240 --> 0:16:35.200 he finds a way. You know. I think last year 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:37.240 when I think they did a reverse with him last 0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:39.960 year at the in the red zone, completely disrespecting us, 0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:42.640 and he scored on that. So I just want to 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:45.560 see how we attack him with our linebackers. Is really 0:16:45.640 --> 0:16:47.520 good to hear that Kean O'Neill is going to be 0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:49.640 back because I think he helps us in that regard. 0:16:49.720 --> 0:16:52.200 But thinking about Sequon Barkley out of the backfield, like 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:56.160 he said, man he is, he's electrifying, and as everybody 0:16:56.280 --> 0:16:58.640 knows about him, he is the kind of guy that 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:02.480 he doesn't hit it after one, two, three, four. It's 0:17:02.520 --> 0:17:05.240 the tip carry that he hits you for thirty forty yards. 0:17:05.280 --> 0:17:07.280 So we just have to keep him contained and not 0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:09.240 give up those big plays. I wonder if he's starting 0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:10.840 to ramp up a little bit, you know. I think 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:14.080 he hasn't had more than sixteen carries so far, and 0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:16.840 you know, coming off the ACL but to your point, 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:18.800 catching balls out of the backfield, didn't he have like 0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:22.639 a fifty yard fifty four? He can do that. He's 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:24.960 done at the Cowboys in the past, So that's something 0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:27.280 to watch for. You. Guys are write about Jason Garrett 0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:29.800 and the play action, you think about his time here. 0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:33.440 He wants the power running game and use play play 0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:35.000 action off of that. If you want to give him 0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:37.560 credit for something, I will say Daniel Jones has done 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:39.960 a better job this year. Watching that Washington game and 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:42.520 watching the Saints game. He just looks more comfortable as 0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:46.040 a pocket passer. But takeaways have been the key for 0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:48.680 the Cowboys so far the season, they've got ten And 0:17:49.400 --> 0:17:51.960 I looked it up and Daniel Jones has fumbled away 0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:54.320 a ball at least one every time he's faced the 0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:57.879 Cowboys in his career, so keep that going, so you 0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:00.360 know he's done a better job protecting it. But that's 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:02.320 been the key for the defense because they have given 0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:05.040 up yards, they've just they've gotten takeaways and they've done 0:18:05.040 --> 0:18:07.240 a solid job for the most part in the red zone. See. 0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:10.080 And that's what makes this matchup so intriguing because the 0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:14.760 Giants big playability is their calling card on offense is Hey, 0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:16.520 we're gonna we're gonna lull you to sleep and then 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:18.600 we're gonna strike for the big play. Bang bang. Did 0:18:18.680 --> 0:18:20.360 it against the Saints. It's a reason they were able 0:18:20.400 --> 0:18:22.600 to come back. Dallas will give up the big play 0:18:22.680 --> 0:18:25.640 from now, now and again. And also to running quarterbacks. 0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:28.800 I mean, Sam Darnold was no track star either, and 0:18:28.960 --> 0:18:31.080 he had two rushing touchdowns and he was able to 0:18:31.160 --> 0:18:33.359 run for a couple first downs as well, very similar 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:36.160 to what Daniel Jones can do. And I just kind 0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:38.440 of wanted to back end what you said about Evan Ingram. 0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:42.080 Evan Ingram forty receptions, four hundred and forty three yards 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:45.320 and four total touchdowns against the Cowboys in eight games. Jesus, 0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:49.040 he has no more than three hundred yards against any 0:18:49.119 --> 0:18:52.639 other team in his career and forty three against the 0:18:52.680 --> 0:18:56.200 Cowboys and four touchdowns. Yeah, it's back to what you 0:18:56.280 --> 0:18:58.840 were saying about their big playability and are given up 0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:01.000 the big play. It's like it's like the boxing term. 0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:03.280 You know, styles make fights, and this is one of 0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:05.320 those ones where you look at it and say, yeah, man, 0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:07.119 we should Peter role. These guys just show up to 0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:09.440 the statement, just punch them in the mouth. But it's 0:19:09.480 --> 0:19:13.400 a situation where if you do not protect everything, if 0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:16.280 you're not playing era free football, not turning it over, 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:19.000 not giving up those long touchdowns, are giving up those 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:22.240 long drives that you talk about, you'll find yourself down 0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:24.720 and have to battle back versus team that you could 0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:27.320 put the bed early these games, Right, I've played in 0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:30.679 games against obviously rivalry games, Giants, Eagles, all those kind 0:19:30.760 --> 0:19:32.960 of things. If you allow those teams to hang around, 0:19:33.520 --> 0:19:35.119 those are the ones that that sneak up on you 0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:37.560 and then that's how you get snake bits. So my 0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:39.879 hope is that we get up. I feel that we 0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:42.200 will get up, and we need to continue to drive 0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:44.159 these boys into the ground. We need to get up 0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:48.480 by seven, fourteen, twenty one, twenty eight, keep going because 0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:50.040 as soon as you have you get up by ten 0:19:50.160 --> 0:19:52.360 points and you let up off the gas, that's when 0:19:52.400 --> 0:19:54.800 teams like this would come up and points did. Yeh, 0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:58.120 that's exactly what they win. The prevent in the fourth quarter, 0:19:58.200 --> 0:20:01.600 and they prevented a win. That's what Carolina almost did 0:20:01.680 --> 0:20:04.680 in the fourth quarters. We did. We let off the gas. Yeah, 0:20:04.920 --> 0:20:07.600 and there are similarities to that matchup. I mean, they 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:10.760 love the RPO stuff with Daniel Jones and that was 0:20:10.840 --> 0:20:13.399 a problem, especially in the first half with Sam Darnold. 0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:15.160 So it'd be interesting to see how the Cowboys handled 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:17.000 that because that's that's part of their offense. And the 0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:20.280 Giants last two losses by a combined four points, so 0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:22.960 it's not like they've been getting blown out. They're gonna 0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:25.399 stay competitive throughout the game. And I was, as you 0:20:25.480 --> 0:20:27.360 guys were all talking, I was thinking, man, this first 0:20:27.359 --> 0:20:29.119 half is gonna be crucial, and then you reminded me 0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:31.840 of the Saints. It was the second half that they 0:20:31.960 --> 0:20:33.399 let off the gat. It was the fourth quarter that 0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:35.040 they let off the gas. So it's gonna be all 0:20:35.119 --> 0:20:37.240 four quarters. The giants are gonna come after it. And 0:20:37.520 --> 0:20:39.680 if you're a Cowboys fan right now and you don't 0:20:39.720 --> 0:20:42.280 think there's a target on your back as the Dallas 0:20:42.320 --> 0:20:44.480 Cowboys that are three and one and now all of 0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:48.600 a sudden have Super Bowl aspirations, yeah there's a target 0:20:48.640 --> 0:20:50.320 on your back. Teams want to beat you all right 0:20:50.400 --> 0:20:52.960 when we come back here on talking Cowboys, take it 0:20:53.320 --> 0:20:57.440 or leave it.

Isaiah standback, Rob Phillips, heck Ma Harrison. 0:23:36.320 --> 0:23:38.440 I'm Kyle Yeomen's Chris Beam in the back doing work 0:23:38.560 --> 0:23:41.520 as always. Gentlemen you time, are you ready for a 0:23:41.600 --> 0:23:44.160 little uh little take it or leave it? This week? 0:23:44.280 --> 0:23:47.960 I am yes, starting to be a little Thursday tradition. 0:23:48.480 --> 0:23:52.520 Try and stir up some some debate amongst the gentleman 0:23:52.600 --> 0:23:55.359 here at the desk, and we'll start things off with 0:23:55.520 --> 0:23:59.920 this statement. The takeaways will continue Heckman mentioned ten takeaways 0:24:00.080 --> 0:24:02.680 in the last segment. It's been ten straight games with 0:24:02.800 --> 0:24:06.040 the takeaway the Cowboys defense, second longest active streak in 0:24:06.160 --> 0:24:11.440 the NFL. Do they continue this week? We'll start with you, Rob, Yeah, 0:24:11.520 --> 0:24:14.560 I do. I think they'll get at least one. That 0:24:14.840 --> 0:24:16.480 it's become a trend. I mean, you go back to 0:24:16.600 --> 0:24:19.160 the second half of last season and that it starts 0:24:19.160 --> 0:24:23.080 to become part of your identity. Now I'm curious. I 0:24:23.160 --> 0:24:25.119 don't know what the recipe is to constantly get them. 0:24:25.160 --> 0:24:27.280 I mean, it's not like it's it's a quarterback situation 0:24:27.320 --> 0:24:28.720 where he's got the ball in his hands and you 0:24:28.800 --> 0:24:30.560 know he can do something good with it every single week. 0:24:30.600 --> 0:24:32.480 So I don't think you can always count on it. 0:24:32.760 --> 0:24:36.560 And if you don't have the takeaways, you know, that's 0:24:36.600 --> 0:24:39.120 where it gets interesting for this defense. Can they continue 0:24:39.880 --> 0:24:42.399 being productive and limiting big plays and doing and not 0:24:42.920 --> 0:24:46.040 giving possessions to the offense every week? But I think 0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:48.760 it will continue because I think they've got more playmakers 0:24:49.160 --> 0:24:50.480 than they have in the past, and they got more 0:24:50.560 --> 0:24:56.119 leads to play with. Two yes, see whatever other languages, 0:24:57.600 --> 0:25:03.200 we definitely take it because fast, physical, discipline football for 0:25:03.320 --> 0:25:06.399 it brings turnovers. That's that's what we're doing right now. 0:25:06.440 --> 0:25:08.200 We talked about culture and all those things. These guys 0:25:08.200 --> 0:25:10.760 have adapted I have adopted it, and that's what's happening. 0:25:10.880 --> 0:25:14.479 We're seeing that from depth Chart one through three. Everybody 0:25:14.480 --> 0:25:16.240 who steps on the field is given one hundred percent. 0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:18.360 Get tired, get off the field, will get you back 0:25:18.359 --> 0:25:20.400 in there. Give me everything you got, empty the tank 0:25:20.480 --> 0:25:22.720 every play. When you do that and you're disciplined in 0:25:22.880 --> 0:25:26.160 what we're asking you to do, turnovers happen. Now. I'm 0:25:26.160 --> 0:25:28.560 gonna say take it because Trayvon Dick seems to be 0:25:28.720 --> 0:25:32.520 on a Peanut Tillman kind of streak right now. It 0:25:32.720 --> 0:25:34.840 seems like the ball he is just a magnet for 0:25:34.920 --> 0:25:37.040 the ball. I mean, you remember that the strip that 0:25:37.119 --> 0:25:38.760 he was on, he was just punching the ball out 0:25:39.119 --> 0:25:42.120 and getting the fun with getting interceptions each and every week. 0:25:42.200 --> 0:25:44.760 And so back to what you were saying about the 0:25:44.800 --> 0:25:46.840 way that our defense is playing. These guys are playing fast. 0:25:46.960 --> 0:25:48.760 Everybody to the ball, and if they get a guy 0:25:48.840 --> 0:25:50.520 held up, they're trying to rip and strip at it. 0:25:50.640 --> 0:25:52.600 So I think it continues. It's going to be one 0:25:52.600 --> 0:25:54.880 of those things that at some point one game where 0:25:55.000 --> 0:25:56.440 a couple of games, we're not going to have it. 0:25:56.560 --> 0:25:59.639 So as we've been experiencing now, these turnovers have been 0:25:59.640 --> 0:26:02.760 happening in bunches, So just gotta keep that streak alive. 0:26:02.840 --> 0:26:04.520 You think teams are just gonna stop throwing to them 0:26:04.560 --> 0:26:07.280 at some point, though, I'm surprised they haven't already. Yeah, 0:26:08.200 --> 0:26:10.520 I mean, as well as Diggs's playing, they don't have 0:26:10.600 --> 0:26:12.000 to come from Diggs, And I don't think that they 0:26:12.080 --> 0:26:14.000 will continue to come from Diggs in that regard. That's no, 0:26:14.240 --> 0:26:17.120 that's no, no shade on him, because I mean you heard, 0:26:17.160 --> 0:26:18.520 I just don't know if you saw the video that 0:26:18.640 --> 0:26:21.120 the Cowboys social media put out. It was amazing video 0:26:21.119 --> 0:26:23.400 they put out yesterday on Instagram. Um that was showing 0:26:23.400 --> 0:26:25.640 all the sideline footage and Coop saying, man, they're gonna 0:26:25.640 --> 0:26:27.360 stop throwing to you, like you better get it while 0:26:27.359 --> 0:26:28.919 you can because they're not gonna throw the ball no more, 0:26:29.040 --> 0:26:31.080 you know. And and that's and that's true, that that's 0:26:31.080 --> 0:26:32.680 what happens in this league when they start seeing you 0:26:32.760 --> 0:26:35.440 as a threat. Um. But because of how the rest 0:26:35.480 --> 0:26:37.760 of the guys are playing, you know, this is a 0:26:37.920 --> 0:26:40.359 very physical game. This is so we might see things 0:26:40.480 --> 0:26:44.119 change from interceptions to straight fumbles because when you run 0:26:44.200 --> 0:26:47.000 around and you hit people, this this this game hurts 0:26:47.520 --> 0:26:49.399 for those that don't know, right, this game hurts and 0:26:49.480 --> 0:26:52.159 and and you don't want to injure a guy, but 0:26:52.280 --> 0:26:54.040 you want to hurt a guy. Yeah, you want to 0:26:54.080 --> 0:26:55.720 put them on. I'm sorry that doesn't sound good, but 0:26:55.760 --> 0:26:58.040 that's that's the NFL. You don't want to injure somebody, 0:26:58.080 --> 0:26:59.560 but you want to hurt them, and you want to 0:26:59.640 --> 0:27:01.320 hurt them to the point where every time they see 0:27:01.359 --> 0:27:03.720 you coming, they want to tense up. And the last 0:27:03.760 --> 0:27:06.080 thing that they're thinking about is the ball security. They 0:27:06.160 --> 0:27:08.280 want to protect themselves and not necessarily ball. You want 0:27:08.320 --> 0:27:10.800 guys thinking that every single time you're around, every time 0:27:10.880 --> 0:27:13.240 they get ready, get ready to get tackled, they should 0:27:13.240 --> 0:27:15.520 see to your point, one person hold him up, everybody 0:27:15.520 --> 0:27:17.119 else beat him up. When was the last time you 0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:20.160 saw a defense where the offense got on the field 0:27:20.400 --> 0:27:22.920 and they were like, we if you catch the ball, 0:27:22.920 --> 0:27:24.400 you better harry up and be looking for the ground 0:27:24.400 --> 0:27:25.960 you get to the ground. Yeah, when was the last 0:27:26.000 --> 0:27:27.880 time you saw a defense like in a minute, It's 0:27:27.880 --> 0:27:30.119 been a minute, in a minute, but yeah, I mean 0:27:30.160 --> 0:27:31.960 that's what that's what that's what we're starting to see, right, 0:27:32.040 --> 0:27:34.280 and and that's why you know this all season we 0:27:34.359 --> 0:27:37.199 talked so much about, you know, in reference to Israel mcquombo, right, 0:27:37.359 --> 0:27:38.840 I mean, in terms of his ability to make the 0:27:38.920 --> 0:27:40.800 team and have an effect. I told you he's not 0:27:40.800 --> 0:27:42.680 going to touch the field until he starts hitting people, 0:27:43.040 --> 0:27:45.280 just because the culture of this defense, you have to 0:27:45.320 --> 0:27:47.639 be able to hit, you have to be willing to hit. 0:27:47.840 --> 0:27:50.080 He won't. He won't touch the field until he throws 0:27:50.119 --> 0:27:52.040 his head in there. But Donald didn't have a problem 0:27:52.080 --> 0:27:54.199 with that. Nope, when he gets back, now, he'll get 0:27:54.240 --> 0:27:55.960 in there. Yeah, he'll get in there. Yeah. So I 0:27:56.000 --> 0:27:58.080 mean that's what you want and man, and that's and 0:27:58.320 --> 0:28:01.159 that's an impact that he'll immediately have. Especially that's what 0:28:01.280 --> 0:28:03.159 he brings to his team almost too, a detriment going 0:28:03.200 --> 0:28:05.359 back to college, like he I'm really aggressive, got some 0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:07.240 targeting stuff in college. You gotta watch that in this 0:28:07.359 --> 0:28:10.160 league because I mean, look at Casey. You gotta watch 0:28:10.240 --> 0:28:12.760 where he hit somebody buying the shoulder apparently. Yeah, but 0:28:12.920 --> 0:28:16.240 Casey showed you even though he's smallness stature, he will 0:28:16.359 --> 0:28:19.679 bring that would Yeah, that I think that's a perfect 0:28:19.720 --> 0:28:21.879 example for what you guys you're talking about is CAZy 0:28:22.040 --> 0:28:23.560 is not the biggest man in the world, and he 0:28:23.720 --> 0:28:26.680 was not known in Atlanta for being a hard hitter. 0:28:26.760 --> 0:28:28.040 But but you know what, but he comes over the 0:28:28.080 --> 0:28:30.400 middle and he lays the wood. When you're in that environment, 0:28:30.600 --> 0:28:32.399 the last person you want to be on film to 0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:35.960 your teammates is the one who's not doing something. You 0:28:36.200 --> 0:28:38.320 understand when you come back on Mondays, you're watching film. 0:28:38.880 --> 0:28:42.040 Everybody's sitting there watching film together, and it could be hell, 0:28:42.200 --> 0:28:43.720 And it could be if the coach will take that 0:28:43.800 --> 0:28:46.480 little laser beam and sim push pause and circle you 0:28:46.920 --> 0:28:50.200 all day, lone, be like, what is this bare? When 0:28:50.200 --> 0:28:52.480 everybody else is sitting up there running around hitting. When 0:28:52.520 --> 0:28:54.800 you see other guys sprinting to the pile, jumping on 0:28:54.920 --> 0:28:56.920 the pile, and you're the one guy that's not, it 0:28:57.040 --> 0:28:59.480 looks real bad. So be the one guy that doesn't 0:28:59.520 --> 0:29:01.239 throw us head in there, that wants to tense up 0:29:01.280 --> 0:29:04.080 and turn his back or turn his shoulder. You're gonna 0:29:04.120 --> 0:29:08.160 look real soft, right, sawft soft? This is this sounds 0:29:08.160 --> 0:29:10.400 a lot like what I feel like whenever I watch 0:29:10.520 --> 0:29:14.400 GMAT sending against videos on our talking cast. What is this? 0:29:14.640 --> 0:29:17.280 What is this right here? What is that? That's your 0:29:17.320 --> 0:29:19.680 film room? Exactly? All right, take it or leave it. 0:29:20.000 --> 0:29:24.240 Dak Prescott is an MVP candidate in twenty twenty one. Yes, 0:29:24.760 --> 0:29:28.680 taking it, taking it? Got it? Okay? Yeah, hell yeah, nice, 0:29:29.840 --> 0:29:32.160 I'm gonna I'm gonna go take it. And again, I'm 0:29:32.240 --> 0:29:37.200 just you know, I've been hurt before. I'm in a 0:29:37.240 --> 0:29:39.400 little card. Let let me get past this week, Listen, 0:29:39.560 --> 0:29:41.400 I just want to give well. I mean, it's gonna 0:29:41.400 --> 0:29:43.640 come down to how the team does. Absolutely, I mean 0:29:43.680 --> 0:29:45.160 it's a team. It's a team award as much as 0:29:45.160 --> 0:29:48.880 a point. Every successful team's quarterback is always in that conversation. 0:29:49.080 --> 0:29:51.880 But I mean, dude, like they're only they're fourteenth and 0:29:51.960 --> 0:29:54.959 passing offense right now, which is so misleading because they 0:29:55.000 --> 0:29:58.160 don't have to right now. But he's seventy five percent 0:29:58.240 --> 0:30:01.720 completion percentage madness, one seventeen passer rating, and he's on 0:30:01.800 --> 0:30:05.640 pace for forty touchdown passes. Seventy five percent is the 0:30:05.880 --> 0:30:08.000 most staggering stat that you mentioned. Ye, out of all 0:30:08.040 --> 0:30:13.520 those things, seventy five percent is insane. Sixty percent is good, right, 0:30:13.600 --> 0:30:17.320 yea percent is good in football and he's not checkdown Chuck. Yeah. 0:30:17.800 --> 0:30:20.080 I mean, you know you start that, that's insane. You 0:30:20.120 --> 0:30:21.640 want to you want to hear something that makes that 0:30:21.720 --> 0:30:25.200 even more insane. Dak Prescott is the fourth quarterback since 0:30:25.320 --> 0:30:29.120 nineteen fifty with ten passing touchdowns and a seventy five 0:30:29.240 --> 0:30:32.760 plus completion percentage in his team's first four games of 0:30:32.880 --> 0:30:36.120 the season. You want to know the other three. Russell 0:30:36.160 --> 0:30:39.600 Wilson in twenty twenty, he was he was at MVP 0:30:39.720 --> 0:30:41.920 caliber at that point. He was all over that conversation, 0:30:42.280 --> 0:30:46.320 Peyton Manning in twenty thirteen, Tom Brady in two thousand 0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:49.320 Monday Night Football Goat. Yeah. So you've got the Goat, 0:30:49.360 --> 0:30:52.080 Tom Brady, the other goat, Peyton Manning and potentially the 0:30:52.200 --> 0:30:55.240 modern Goat, and Russell Wilson, and then you've got Dak Prescott. 0:30:55.320 --> 0:30:57.720 Those are the four that have done it. It's pretty impressive. 0:30:58.200 --> 0:31:00.320 What you disagree with this dament? No, No, I'm just 0:31:00.880 --> 0:31:02.160 you're down on your boy. I don't want to talk 0:31:02.200 --> 0:31:06.920 about your other team. Russell, sorry that that Seattle team. 0:31:06.960 --> 0:31:10.000 Not No, that's Those are great numbers and he's doing 0:31:10.040 --> 0:31:12.280 it in the offense is balanced. It's not like it 0:31:12.440 --> 0:31:15.200 was last year. Whether everybody's just empty calories. He's throwing 0:31:15.240 --> 0:31:17.000 for a bunch of yards and the team is still 0:31:17.360 --> 0:31:21.040 losing that efficiency that I'm talking about. That that seventy 0:31:21.440 --> 0:31:24.280 seventy five percent completion ray just points to the way 0:31:24.400 --> 0:31:26.880 how balanced this team is. I love it, and to 0:31:27.040 --> 0:31:29.080 the people that's all these are just short throws digging 0:31:29.480 --> 0:31:32.440 you know what. Look, he's picking teams apart. And you 0:31:32.520 --> 0:31:36.040 saw on that throw to a Marii Cooper all the 0:31:36.120 --> 0:31:39.760 people that questioned his accuracy. That was one of those 0:31:39.880 --> 0:31:43.240 moments where well he dropped that thing in the bucket. Oh, 0:31:43.280 --> 0:31:45.320 that was such a good throw. And that just shows 0:31:45.480 --> 0:31:47.640 you how he's mature, even on that curl route. I 0:31:47.680 --> 0:31:50.200 mean there's been different times, and especially as rookie year, 0:31:50.280 --> 0:31:53.440 where that just wasn't in his wheelhouse to do. Now, yeah, 0:31:53.680 --> 0:31:55.400 we're not having to throw the ball down field. And 0:31:55.440 --> 0:31:58.480 that's a testment not only to dak Right his efficiency 0:31:58.520 --> 0:32:02.280 and his accuracy. That's see, that's a testament to these 0:32:02.360 --> 0:32:05.000 receivers and tight ends that are running great routes and 0:32:05.040 --> 0:32:07.160 getting open and then Kellen Moore that's putting them in 0:32:07.200 --> 0:32:09.080 positions to get open based upon what he expects the 0:32:09.160 --> 0:32:12.000 defenses to propose to put out there that. I mean this. 0:32:12.840 --> 0:32:14.640 I know people want to see the big plays. I 0:32:14.760 --> 0:32:16.160 know people want to see the big plays, but you 0:32:16.320 --> 0:32:18.880 much rather see W's. Yeah, you much rather see W. 0:32:19.080 --> 0:32:21.840 So if it requires him taking two shots down the 0:32:21.880 --> 0:32:23.640 field every game, even though you want to see ten, 0:32:23.960 --> 0:32:26.840 Guess what high precision passes is. Where it's at seventy 0:32:27.960 --> 0:32:31.920 is redicut. That's that's the equivalent to somebody batting five hundred. 0:32:32.480 --> 0:32:36.120 It's just madness. It's just madness. So keep it up. 0:32:36.560 --> 0:32:38.880 Run the ball, high precision passes. Let our receivers and 0:32:38.920 --> 0:32:41.000 tight ends and running backs do what they do in terms, 0:32:41.040 --> 0:32:43.680 they get paid to catch the ball and running get 0:32:43.720 --> 0:32:45.840 some yachyr orders. Let them do it. I like what 0:32:45.960 --> 0:32:48.320 you said there. If everybody wants to see the big play, 0:32:48.360 --> 0:32:50.680 but you would rather see a w You remember last year, 0:32:50.720 --> 0:32:53.560 Week four, the season against the Cleveland Browns. I mean 0:32:53.600 --> 0:32:55.520 there's a high scoring game. Name the biggest play that 0:32:55.560 --> 0:32:58.400 happened for the Dallas Cowboys, any of you try and 0:32:58.520 --> 0:33:02.960 name it. Cowboys lost that game to Cleveland. It was 0:33:03.000 --> 0:33:04.640 a one score game at the end of it. Because 0:33:05.080 --> 0:33:08.720 the Dallas team came storming back in that ball game, 0:33:08.760 --> 0:33:10.560 but you don't know what big play happened. You would 0:33:10.600 --> 0:33:12.880 rather have the wins because you remember the losses and 0:33:12.960 --> 0:33:14.640 the wins more than you remember the big play. I 0:33:14.760 --> 0:33:18.360 completely agree, So next one, take it or leave it? 0:33:18.800 --> 0:33:22.880 Ezekiel Elliott has returned to top three running back status 0:33:23.000 --> 0:33:26.480 in the NFL. Right now, take it or leave it? 0:33:26.600 --> 0:33:30.320 Heck Man, we're taking everything, so we got to leave something. 0:33:31.120 --> 0:33:32.760 Now I'm going to I'm gonna take it. I mean, 0:33:32.800 --> 0:33:34.560 he's bringing the spoon with him to work, and he's 0:33:34.600 --> 0:33:38.560 looking lighter, sleeker. Zeke, you know, so everything that and 0:33:38.640 --> 0:33:40.600 I think it's only gonna get better for him as 0:33:40.640 --> 0:33:43.120 the season goes along. We're gonna go against you know, 0:33:43.240 --> 0:33:45.320 even when we get to Kansas City and everyone's gonna 0:33:45.320 --> 0:33:49.240 be talking about that matchup between Dak and Patty Mahomes, 0:33:49.840 --> 0:33:52.440 it's still gonna be Zeke. It's gonna be Zeke. That's 0:33:52.440 --> 0:33:54.160 gonna get the lion share of that work against a 0:33:54.200 --> 0:33:56.920 bad Kansas City defense. You know, he should be get 0:33:56.960 --> 0:34:00.960 the lion share of the carriages against the Giants. Just saying, 0:34:01.120 --> 0:34:03.400 Derrick Henry's the leading rusher right now in the NFL 0:34:03.480 --> 0:34:06.360 with five hundred and ten yards. Zeke is fourth, and 0:34:06.480 --> 0:34:08.400 he's only twenty yards off a second place, and the 0:34:08.440 --> 0:34:10.520 guys in front of him are Nick Chubb and Joe Mixon. 0:34:10.680 --> 0:34:14.320 So even statistically he's not in the top three, but 0:34:14.400 --> 0:34:16.719 he is right in that conversation, and I would argue 0:34:16.760 --> 0:34:19.080 that he's better than both of those guys just pound 0:34:19.160 --> 0:34:21.799 for pound. What do you think, Rob, Yeah, I mean, 0:34:21.840 --> 0:34:24.680 I think Derrick Henry is the only he's almost like 0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:28.520 the only feature every down back in the league right now. 0:34:28.760 --> 0:34:30.640 He's the only guy that's gotten I think thirty plus 0:34:30.760 --> 0:34:33.239 carries in a game, So you gotta, I think put 0:34:33.360 --> 0:34:35.320 him at the top because of his workload. Beyond that, 0:34:35.480 --> 0:34:37.200 I mean, yeah, I don't think there's been a guy 0:34:37.280 --> 0:34:39.680 that's been more impressive than Zeke. Nick Chubb his second. 0:34:40.080 --> 0:34:43.360 He's got a nice, you know, running back tandem in Cleveland, 0:34:43.800 --> 0:34:47.400 and that's what the Cowboys have here with Pollard. I 0:34:47.600 --> 0:34:49.560 buy that right now. I mean, he's running as well 0:34:49.600 --> 0:34:52.640 as we've seen him run since twenty sixteen. Say it 0:34:52.680 --> 0:34:55.719 with your chest, Rob, He's running as well as we've 0:34:55.760 --> 0:34:59.200 seen him since twenty sixteen. Nice. I like here in that. 0:35:00.200 --> 0:35:01.880 I'm taking it. I'm taking it all day long. The 0:35:01.920 --> 0:35:03.719 reason being, Zeke is a lot more than what you 0:35:03.760 --> 0:35:05.799 see on film, what you see in the stats. Yeah, 0:35:06.400 --> 0:35:07.880 Zeke is so much more than what people see in 0:35:07.880 --> 0:35:10.279 the stats. People see Paula going out there making the 0:35:10.320 --> 0:35:12.080 big plays, and that's awesome. We love it and we 0:35:12.160 --> 0:35:14.359 will take it and keep doing it. Zeke goes out 0:35:14.400 --> 0:35:17.040 there and does the dirty work. Zeke's gonna run. He's 0:35:17.040 --> 0:35:19.719 averaging four and a half yards per carry, four and 0:35:19.760 --> 0:35:22.839 a half yards percare quietly, yeah, quiet because he hasn't 0:35:22.880 --> 0:35:24.520 hit me. Last game he had a couple of breakout runs. 0:35:24.960 --> 0:35:27.160 Aside from that, people were I don't know Zeke is. 0:35:27.160 --> 0:35:29.600 They're questioning it right because he hadn't had over one 0:35:29.719 --> 0:35:32.000 hundred and thirty yard running game like he did last week. 0:35:32.320 --> 0:35:34.719 So what Zeke is efficient? Four and a half yards 0:35:34.760 --> 0:35:36.839 per cary, He's falling forward, he's making good cuts, he's 0:35:36.840 --> 0:35:38.719 turning a negative places into positive plays. And then guess 0:35:38.760 --> 0:35:40.239 what when Dak wants to sit back there and throw 0:35:40.239 --> 0:35:41.960 the ball, guess who's out there picking off the knees 0:35:42.000 --> 0:35:45.439 of linebackers that are blitzing Zeke. Pauler had a great 0:35:45.440 --> 0:35:46.759 block the other day too. I'm gonna put it in 0:35:46.800 --> 0:35:48.799 the film, or he blew somebody up and allows Zeke 0:35:49.480 --> 0:35:51.839 the touchdown to to Coop. Yeah. Right, So, I mean 0:35:51.960 --> 0:35:54.000 these guys are doing a great job of blocking as well, 0:35:54.080 --> 0:35:56.719 and people need to respect that aspect. It's not just 0:35:56.880 --> 0:35:58.640 when they get the ball. They have a whole other 0:35:58.719 --> 0:36:00.840 job to do when they're back there walking, and it 0:36:00.920 --> 0:36:03.680 takes a grown man to do it. Yeah, and I 0:36:03.800 --> 0:36:06.520 agree in seeing Paula throw his head in there and 0:36:06.640 --> 0:36:08.399 make that block. It says a lot about him because 0:36:08.480 --> 0:36:11.080 people kind of doubt because he's small and statue if 0:36:11.120 --> 0:36:13.239 he can actually do it. The thing that really kind 0:36:13.280 --> 0:36:15.680 of sickens me right now in football is how like 0:36:16.360 --> 0:36:20.200 PFF and that Chris collins Worth crowd is devalue and 0:36:20.400 --> 0:36:25.360 just devaluing the running back positions. They're devaluing the running 0:36:25.360 --> 0:36:27.640 back position. And I don't. Look. The thing is, I 0:36:27.680 --> 0:36:30.520 don't I don't understand how football has changed that much. 0:36:30.560 --> 0:36:33.239 And we use the passing league terms that we don't 0:36:33.360 --> 0:36:37.160 understand field position, ball control that the Cowboys have at 0:36:37.239 --> 0:36:39.320 their disposal. With that kind of running back, you just 0:36:39.400 --> 0:36:41.759 can't plug and play. And there's a mentality out of 0:36:41.800 --> 0:36:44.480 here out there that the Shanahans of the world don't 0:36:44.480 --> 0:36:46.400 actually need a number one. See, they can get a 0:36:46.440 --> 0:36:48.600 free agent, They can get anybody to go out there 0:36:48.640 --> 0:36:50.960 and do what a number one running back would do. 0:36:51.040 --> 0:36:52.600 And I just don't think that's true. I think when 0:36:52.640 --> 0:36:54.920 you have a guy like Derrick Henry and Tennessee, I 0:36:55.000 --> 0:36:57.440 think when you have a guy like Nick Chubb in Cleveland, 0:36:57.640 --> 0:37:00.320 it just makes everything on your offense run better. And 0:37:00.400 --> 0:37:02.480 if he's not a threat, the defense can just pin 0:37:02.600 --> 0:37:04.560 the ears and come after you well. And yeah, and 0:37:04.640 --> 0:37:07.759 there's two sides to like when everybody and Zeke joked 0:37:07.760 --> 0:37:09.880 about yesterday, I don't care about people who thought I 0:37:09.920 --> 0:37:12.120 was done, you know, but there's there's two sides that, 0:37:12.239 --> 0:37:14.560 like he did say, I needed to cut some weight 0:37:15.040 --> 0:37:16.840 and work on my quickness and all that, and you 0:37:16.960 --> 0:37:19.239 see it. But at the same time, last year was 0:37:19.239 --> 0:37:22.360 a problem. I mean, all those different line combinations you 0:37:22.440 --> 0:37:26.160 don't have, Dak they you're totally one dimensional as an offense. 0:37:26.760 --> 0:37:28.680 That's really hard for running back. And then you know, 0:37:28.800 --> 0:37:31.400 people bring in the salary and I understand that, but 0:37:32.200 --> 0:37:34.759 it's hard for anybody to do that. And you see 0:37:34.800 --> 0:37:37.000 what he can do, like he said, with a with 0:37:37.120 --> 0:37:39.840 a strong offseason and was Zach Martin in front of 0:37:39.880 --> 0:37:43.320 you and Dak quarterback. You know that's gonna help anybody, 0:37:43.400 --> 0:37:45.400 no matter how much money you make. Zach Martin's the 0:37:45.480 --> 0:37:48.120 highest graded player on Pro Football Focus through the first 0:37:48.160 --> 0:37:50.520 four weeks of the year. There's a guard everyone MVP. 0:37:52.120 --> 0:37:55.080 He should I don't know, maybe maybe he should be 0:37:55.120 --> 0:37:58.640 in that conversation a great He has been almost perfect 0:37:58.719 --> 0:38:00.680 and that's hard to do. We come back here on 0:38:00.800 --> 0:38:05.479 talking Cowboys. Should the Cowboys consider spying Daniel Jones Come 0:38:06.040 --> 0:38:09.680 Sunday afternoon.

You're Talking Cowboys, 0:40:50.480 --> 0:40:54.200 presented by Tostitos, Rob Phillips, Isaiah Stanback, heck my Harrison. 0:40:54.239 --> 0:40:56.920 I'm Kyle Yeoman's and I asked this going into the break, 0:40:57.480 --> 0:41:01.480 should the Cowboys consider spying Daniel Jones? We mentioned his 0:41:01.560 --> 0:41:04.640 athletic ability. No, he is not the most fleet of 0:41:04.680 --> 0:41:07.840 foot quarterback, but he can definitely run the football almost 0:41:07.880 --> 0:41:10.000 had an eighty yard touchdown Scamper a year ago, and 0:41:10.080 --> 0:41:12.040 the only reason he didn't because he got sniped from 0:41:12.040 --> 0:41:15.120 the top upper deck. I mean fell at the twenty. 0:41:21.320 --> 0:41:24.000 He didn't score on that did not. I totally forgot 0:41:24.080 --> 0:41:32.120 about it. No, but yeah, so I mean he can 0:41:32.239 --> 0:41:35.120 run the football. You mean the Giants leading rusher. He 0:41:35.280 --> 0:41:37.600 is the Giants leading rusher right now? Is he really? Yes? 0:41:37.680 --> 0:41:42.040 He thought, because Sakwan's got one eighty six. Yeah, and 0:41:42.120 --> 0:41:44.839 I think I think Jones has one eighty eight. Oh 0:41:44.920 --> 0:41:48.879 my god, and they both had two touchdowns. Because there's 0:41:48.880 --> 0:41:52.880 not you're being paid too much? But is that a 0:41:53.000 --> 0:41:55.960 thing the Cowboys defense should consider? No? Okay, No, I 0:41:56.000 --> 0:41:58.479 think you need to be aware of him. He hurts 0:41:58.520 --> 0:42:01.920 teams because guys forget about him. And it's one of 0:42:01.920 --> 0:42:03.360 the one I was saying, one of the things that 0:42:03.400 --> 0:42:05.480 you can't let allow these guys get the ground game going, 0:42:05.560 --> 0:42:09.200 because then they're allowed to do formations that you know, 0:42:09.480 --> 0:42:11.560 a bunch of formations like heck I mentioned earlier that 0:42:11.680 --> 0:42:14.480 really make you focus on who you have, right, so 0:42:14.560 --> 0:42:16.439 all your attention goes to who do I have? What's 0:42:16.440 --> 0:42:17.920 the release? Are we in and out of this? Are 0:42:18.000 --> 0:42:20.879 we maunlocking this are these guys crossing our safety's face 0:42:21.160 --> 0:42:23.480 And guess what through all that, who's the last person 0:42:23.520 --> 0:42:28.120 you're thinking about? Quarterback? Quarterback? Right, because he's not a burner. 0:42:28.840 --> 0:42:30.719 You say, okay, we can we can pay coverage and 0:42:30.880 --> 0:42:32.719 worry about him later. And that's when he gets you. 0:42:33.160 --> 0:42:34.560 That's when he gets you to That's why we can't 0:42:34.560 --> 0:42:36.840 allow them to get into these these down and distances 0:42:37.120 --> 0:42:39.400 that are favorable for them, because he can pick up 0:42:39.440 --> 0:42:43.160 six yards easy. Yeah, And you look, I just here 0:42:43.200 --> 0:42:45.560 and Jalen Hurts at this point in their career are 0:42:45.560 --> 0:42:48.480 almost kind of identical in that way, and you know 0:42:48.600 --> 0:42:52.280 they want to extend, to play and keep the chains moving. 0:42:52.640 --> 0:42:54.640 But I think for our defense, they just have to 0:42:54.760 --> 0:42:58.440 do what they do, and that's fly around and man. 0:42:58.520 --> 0:43:01.680 Watching the tape, I just man, it's number ninety seven. Really, 0:43:02.160 --> 0:43:05.520 this is what I'm seeing, Like, Ohsa Diggi zor is 0:43:06.000 --> 0:43:09.759 he is man. He his first step, his explosiveness, he's 0:43:09.760 --> 0:43:12.359 the way that his gap responsibility, all of those things 0:43:12.440 --> 0:43:14.839 that he does, I mean, how strong he is at 0:43:14.880 --> 0:43:17.640 the point of attack. It just points to a guy 0:43:17.719 --> 0:43:20.479 that's gonna be good for a very, very long time, 0:43:20.800 --> 0:43:23.719 and I just feel like defensively, if we just line 0:43:23.800 --> 0:43:26.600 up and whoop they button, we're gonna get it. It's 0:43:26.600 --> 0:43:29.160 gonna be over with because I don't believe that they 0:43:29.239 --> 0:43:31.480 have an offensive line that could withstand the kind of 0:43:31.520 --> 0:43:34.439 pressure that we're gonna bring. And you know, some teams 0:43:34.520 --> 0:43:36.160 have let off of them, like the Saints did they 0:43:36.600 --> 0:43:38.640 let up off of them and let him back in 0:43:38.719 --> 0:43:41.239 the game. That's something that's a mistake that we cannot make. 0:43:41.480 --> 0:43:45.000 And Daniel Jones is just like every other quarterback I've seen. 0:43:45.360 --> 0:43:48.480 If you get pressure on him, he will start moving around, 0:43:48.760 --> 0:43:51.279 he will start second guessing himself, and that will open 0:43:51.400 --> 0:43:54.560 up the Cowboys opportunity for those sacks strip fumbles. Yeah, 0:43:54.600 --> 0:43:57.680 I agree. Yeah, I mean daro line has been kind 0:43:57.719 --> 0:43:59.359 of an issue for them in recent years. I think 0:43:59.400 --> 0:44:02.440 it's been better. Um, but I mean, did they Cowboys 0:44:02.480 --> 0:44:05.920 really spy hurts all that much game? I don't think so. Yeah, 0:44:05.960 --> 0:44:07.719 I don't. I don't. You know, And you're getting you're 0:44:07.719 --> 0:44:10.440 getting counted back. You've got the speed back there, so 0:44:11.200 --> 0:44:13.680 you're a faster, more of a sideline to sideline defense 0:44:13.719 --> 0:44:15.960 than you were last year. So I feel better about it. 0:44:16.080 --> 0:44:18.680 And Jeron curse. Jeron curse is going to have an 0:44:18.680 --> 0:44:20.799 effect on this game. Also when when I was talking 0:44:20.840 --> 0:44:23.280 about Evan Egrahm and also backs out of the backfield 0:44:23.320 --> 0:44:25.600 that when we go with that big nickel package, he'll 0:44:25.640 --> 0:44:28.080 have a lot to say about that. And also whether 0:44:28.520 --> 0:44:30.600 Dania Jones want to take that punishment coming out of 0:44:30.640 --> 0:44:32.319 the backfield. Is by to say, when you hit him, 0:44:32.360 --> 0:44:33.759 when you have an opportunity to hit him, hit the 0:44:33.800 --> 0:44:36.560 crap out of him, hit hit him and make him 0:44:36.640 --> 0:44:39.719 see Jesus and when and bring him back to light. 0:44:40.160 --> 0:44:43.680 And just know that from that point forward, if you 0:44:43.800 --> 0:44:46.279 decide to cross this line of scrimmage, this is what 0:44:46.400 --> 0:44:47.960 you got to deal with. Let's be the title of 0:44:48.040 --> 0:44:54.640 today's show. Emanuell make him see Jesus? Is that you. 0:44:56.719 --> 0:45:02.319 I don't think there's any better way to end. Let's 0:45:02.400 --> 0:45:04.640 curse up the middle. All right, That's it for us 0:45:04.680 --> 0:45:07.280 here on Talking Cowboys. Be sure to join us tomorrow 0:45:07.440 --> 0:45:10.320 for Say It with your Chest Friday. We preview the 0:45:10.360 --> 0:45:13.120 Cowboys offense trying to take the big play on against 0:45:13.160 --> 0:45:17.440 that Giants defense, and the fans picking.

We had George 0:45:33.120 --> 0:45:34.800 last week. I don't really know how good of a 0:45:34.880 --> 0:45:36.400 job he did, but I'll go back and look at 0:45:36.440 --> 0:45:38.960 it today.
