Speaker 1: I mean, on their website. So, um, it's just dope.

Speaker 1: Go check it out. It is on Good Morning America's
Speaker 1: Twitter and Facebook and you can find the link to
Speaker 1: there for the full story. It really is really cool.
Speaker 1: I was doing the same thing. I had my phone
Speaker 1: on the side. I was trying to like get make
Speaker 1: sure I was getting ready and drive and safe, but
Speaker 1: I was watching. It was really, really great feature and
Speaker 1: definitely worth sharing and going and checking out. But let's
Speaker 1: get into Cowboys news and notes. Definitely some reaction to
Speaker 1: the Jalen Smith news yesterday. Since we last talked, our
Speaker 1: dream of Stefan Gilmore coming to the Dallas Cowboys was
Speaker 1: snipped aside. It's the Carolina Panthers jumping the gun and
Speaker 1: acquiring Gilmore, the former All Pro cornerback, with a six
Speaker 1: round pick. That's all it took to take him from
Speaker 1: New England and put him with the Carolina Panthers. But Rob,
Speaker 1: what else went on yesterday was the practices ended and
Speaker 1: you got to talk to a little a couple of players.
Speaker 1: Well some good news. You got no COVID editions and
Speaker 1: you've got Scott O'Neil and Bradley and I off reserve COVID.
Speaker 1: That was positive news. On the timeline. Heck you saw that.
Speaker 1: Thanks for the retweet. Zeke didn't practice yesterday. He's not
Speaker 1: sure what he did in the game. He's got some
Speaker 1: some tightness, some stiffness in his knee. It's better yesterday.
Speaker 1: Thinks he'll practice today. We'll see, but I don't think
Speaker 1: there's a concern about him playing in the game. And
Speaker 1: you know, Mary Cooper didn't practice, but they're trying to
Speaker 1: manage him for this game as well. And Trayvon Diggs
Speaker 1: another player of note. I guess he had full practice
Speaker 1: with the back tightness from last game. So overall injury
Speaker 1: report looks pretty good. Man, And the Giants had a
Speaker 1: lot of guys DMP yesterday, jab Jabril Peppers, Sterling Shepherd
Speaker 1: did not practice, Darius Slayton hamstring, Cayton Smith knee, Andrew
Speaker 1: Thomas foot, Leonard Williams knee. So these are guys that
Speaker 1: you think are gonna be big time contributors that did
Speaker 1: not practice, Yester. I'm sure obviously some of these guys
Speaker 1: will come off today. But that's interesting. That's a lot
Speaker 1: of big names for Giants fans. I mean, Williams and
Speaker 1: Jabrill Peppers. Peppers didn't play in the fourth quarter or
Speaker 1: overtime of that Saints when he did, however, go out
Speaker 1: and take the coin toss, y'all see that video. That
Speaker 1: was amazing. I was one of the funniest moments. I
Speaker 1: don't know if I've ever seen in the end the
Speaker 1: capitalized on it. They did, they did, they did. They
Speaker 1: took that moment. Was it the Al Harris? Was it?
Speaker 1: I want the ball and I'm a score. Yeah, let's
Speaker 1: not talk about see I don't like I'll pick that.
Speaker 1: Were you on that team? I was no, no, this
Speaker 1: was like something like that. I was watching it though,
Speaker 1: so as he said he want the ball, We're gonna score,
Speaker 1: I was like, no, no, no, do that, don't do that.
Speaker 1: Next you know, Al, here is a pick. He gets
Speaker 1: to the house, the band was playing. Good thing. He's
Speaker 1: on our team now here coach Dv's coach. So that's
Speaker 1: all positive news. What did you guys think about the
Speaker 1: reaction from the Jalen Smith releasing and more notably late
Speaker 1: and vander esh I mean, unbelievable response from him. And sure,
Speaker 1: we kind of talked about it yesterday. We didn't know
Speaker 1: whether or not it was a surprise in the locker
Speaker 1: room and just how guys would take it, and it
Speaker 1: was kind of a mixed bag of what we saw
Speaker 1: reaction wise. Yesterday. Of course, Michael Parsons took to Twitter
Speaker 1: with Emmanuel a show and then late vander Esh got
Speaker 1: after really everyone for a certain amount of time. Isaiah,
Speaker 1: where did you see that reaction and how it kind
Speaker 1: of compared to what you anticipated? Um? I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I feel like everybody has a has a
Speaker 1: high high regard for him. You know, I don't think
Speaker 1: that there's any um discontentment and within the team, I
Speaker 1: think everybody respects respects him, respects what he's brought to
Speaker 1: this team, in this organization. Um. So when you see
Speaker 1: all the negative talk about him, obviously people who care
Speaker 1: about him are gonna feel some type of way about that. So,
Speaker 1: you know, high high respect for those guys who obviously
Speaker 1: have his back, and kudos to him for getting picked
Speaker 1: up on another squad. I loved it. I love seeing
Speaker 1: Laton vander Esh goes scorched earth on people that were
Speaker 1: throwing those negative things around about Jalen because these guys
Speaker 1: that livelihoods are at steak, and obviously in the national
Speaker 1: media a lot of times guys just talked to get
Speaker 1: attention and get likes and all followers and all that,
Speaker 1: and this people's livelihood and families are at steak. And
Speaker 1: if you've been in the NFL A part of it,
Speaker 1: NFL family. That's a constant worry for coaches, wives, players,
Speaker 1: wives all the time. So I think what he did
Speaker 1: was hit the nail on the head by basically letting
Speaker 1: people know, Man, this is all livelihoods and I don't
Speaker 1: come to your job and tell you you're not producing.
Speaker 1: But you know, again, it's a double led swards because
Speaker 1: you have the fans and you have everybody else that
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like you're entitled to that opinion. So it's
Speaker 1: it's just gonna be that way and always has been. Bow. Yeah,
Speaker 1: not to get all existential here, but I thought I
Speaker 1: thought he brought up a you know problem we've got
Speaker 1: in society with social media and bullying and all this stuff.
Speaker 1: And you know, if you have kids, you worry about
Speaker 1: stuff like that. And look, I know that, I know
Speaker 1: the professional athletes. I know he's getting paid millions of
Speaker 1: dollars and with that, people think they're not human and
Speaker 1: they don't. It doesn't matter what we say. And I
Speaker 1: think Twitter, Twitter is a virtual dogpile. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: it's an opportunity for people to just jump on something
Speaker 1: and hide and you know, don't have to. You can
Speaker 1: put an egg as your profile and all that stuff,
Speaker 1: and like, look, there's been moments where he has struggled,
Speaker 1: there's no doubt about it. But I think he is
Speaker 1: bringing up the fact that, yeah, did it get out
Speaker 1: of control a little bit? Did it become like just
Speaker 1: fun for everybody to do that? Yeah? I mean, and
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I mean, he saw
Speaker 1: his teammate's reaction. I think a lot of guys were shocked.
Speaker 1: Zeke was shocked. Guys. I'm sure disappointed too. I mean,
Speaker 1: I forgot that Zeke was on the field when Jalen
Speaker 1: tore his knee up at Notre Dame. They were playing
Speaker 1: Ohio State, and Zeke came to the middle of the
Speaker 1: field and dapped him up. And they had a relationship
Speaker 1: before that, you know. So I think guys that have
Speaker 1: been in this locker room, especially as long as Heke had,
Speaker 1: they know everything he's been through. And that's part of
Speaker 1: the disappointment too, because it's a he's got a complicated legacy.
Speaker 1: If you look overall at his time here, it's a
Speaker 1: really cool story. It just it didn't end well and
Speaker 1: he didn't play well enough to keep playing as much
Speaker 1: as he did, and you know, and to keep earning
Speaker 1: the contract that he had. That's that's just kind of
Speaker 1: the cold business of the league. And Michael Parson said,
Speaker 1: this is my welcome to the NFL moment. You know
Speaker 1: that this is a tough business here. It is tough,
Speaker 1: and like you said, it is so complex with Jaylen
Speaker 1: because of the story and his resurgence from the injury
Speaker 1: and his ability to go back and actually play football.
Speaker 1: A lot of people didn't think he was gonna play
Speaker 1: football again following the injury that he had as a
Speaker 1: senior at Notre Dame. And he turns around, he gets
Speaker 1: drafted in the second round, doesn't play for a year,
Speaker 1: and then comes back and he works as well way
Speaker 1: to a Pro Bowl. He got to a Pro Bowl.
Speaker 1: Whether what are no matter what you think about what
Speaker 1: that Pro Bowl means, you still got there. Yep. And
Speaker 1: I mean it is a pretty unbelievable story. And I'm
Speaker 1: as guilty as anybody of being very critical of Jalen.
Speaker 1: We all are critical. If you can be critical, there's
Speaker 1: there's a fine line, right right. I think you're about
Speaker 1: to hit on this in terms of being critical, you know,
Speaker 1: being analytical, in terms of your opinions of somebody's play,
Speaker 1: because that's what we do, right, you know, we get
Speaker 1: paid to talk about guys plays and what they did
Speaker 1: and didn't do, the effect they had, effect they didn't have.
Speaker 1: But there's a there's a fine line, right then, there's
Speaker 1: a fine line between analyzing what they've done and then bullying,
Speaker 1: right or degrading or whatever you however, whatever term you
Speaker 1: want to apply towards it. And I think that's the
Speaker 1: step that a lot of people took. Um. You know,
Speaker 1: you can have your strong opinions in favor of or
Speaker 1: against whatever, but there's a there's a definite line that
Speaker 1: that is crossed. And when you started attacking somebody's life
Speaker 1: with whom, when you started attacking um, you know, their
Speaker 1: ability to go out there and do what they need
Speaker 1: to do without you're you on that or conscience you know,
Speaker 1: and those those type of things. There's there's a beatdown regardless,
Speaker 1: you know, to your point, guys are human. Guys are human.
Speaker 1: And this story's not done. I don't don't think that
Speaker 1: we don't have a chance of facing his new team
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Yeah, this story is not done. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and that's the story he got picked up immediately, so
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just a testament to him, no matter
Speaker 1: what you think about him. So he's on another team,
Speaker 1: let's go. I don't know if we've said this, but
Speaker 1: he went to the Green Bay Packers. Apparently this morning
Speaker 1: it was reported that he reports or agreed to terms
Speaker 1: with the Green Bay Packers. So that's where Jalen Smith
Speaker 1: is headed, and the Cowboys have to move on without him.
Speaker 1: Going into Week five of the NFL season, the New
Speaker 1: York Giants are on the docket. Heckmno, you've been hitting
Speaker 1: the film as hard as anybody as always. Yeah, for sure,
Speaker 1: Cowboys Cowboys offense versus the Giants defense. Oh wait, flip it, sorry,
Speaker 1: excuse me. Giants offense versus the Cowboys defense. What do
Speaker 1: you see this Cowboys defense trying to take advantage of
Speaker 1: this week? I love looking at Jason Carrots offense, and
Speaker 1: you know the fact that it hadn't changed a whole
Speaker 1: lot from when he was here. He used those tight
Speaker 1: end sets, those as half backs, fullbacks, and so he's
Speaker 1: gonna overload one side of the ball. He's gonna use
Speaker 1: those bunch sets, bring everybody in tight. He passes out
Speaker 1: of him, he runs out of him. I think for
Speaker 1: this defense man, they just have to stay aggressive, have
Speaker 1: to stay aggressive. Daniel Jones is an athlete, regardless of
Speaker 1: what you think about him. He is a kind of
Speaker 1: guy that if you give him some space, he can
Speaker 1: get out, he can get gone. So the same thing
Speaker 1: I think that would apply with the Jalen Hurts, as
Speaker 1: far as you have to watch him and not allow
Speaker 1: him to hurt you with his legs and make him
Speaker 1: stay in the pocket. Those are my that's literally my
Speaker 1: only concern. I think the big playability of the Giants,
Speaker 1: we can't allow it to hurt us. We can't allow
Speaker 1: them to get off get those big plays because when
Speaker 1: you watch the Saints games, the Saints should be so
Speaker 1: upset with themselves about that loss because they dominated them
Speaker 1: and then they let him off the hook with a
Speaker 1: big play. And so that's just something we can't afford.
Speaker 1: And that's where we are defensively. We're just giving up
Speaker 1: too many big plays. Yeah, I agree, I think that
Speaker 1: this team should be relatively easy to handle. But again,
Speaker 1: like I said yesterday, you need to respect your opponent
Speaker 1: and understand and identify who can hurt you. Daniel Jones
Speaker 1: can hurt you because he can extend drives. He can't
Speaker 1: hurt you because he runs a four three or anything
Speaker 1: like that. But he can hurt you because guess what
Speaker 1: on third and third and six if you don't pay
Speaker 1: attention to him, guess what, He's gonna move those chains
Speaker 1: and then now to have another three downs to try
Speaker 1: to move his chains and try to get close to
Speaker 1: the ends. So that's the threat that he proposes. He
Speaker 1: doesn't have a cannon of an arm. He does. He
Speaker 1: doesn't have blazing speed, but he does. He does have
Speaker 1: understanding this year on how to move the chains and
Speaker 1: how to make proper decisions and how to use his
Speaker 1: assets to put these guys in a good situation. Last
Speaker 1: last year, the year before, he was a turnover magnet. Right,
Speaker 1: He has two turnovers this year one interception right, right,
Speaker 1: So he's making he's making better decisions. I don't know
Speaker 1: if that's Jason Garrett of fat whatever it may be,
Speaker 1: but he's being better for that for that team. The
Speaker 1: way that you stop these guys and on this side
Speaker 1: of the ball is not allowing san Quan to get
Speaker 1: the say Quan to get busy. If you allow him
Speaker 1: to get the ground game going, it opens everything up
Speaker 1: for Garrett. Garret would kill you on play action. Now,
Speaker 1: Garre would kill you on play action if you allow
Speaker 1: him to get a running game. That's when he did.
Speaker 1: That's what they want to do. That's when Garrett becomes dangerous.
Speaker 1: Garrett's not gonna get hurt you if you just have
Speaker 1: to sit back to them throw all day long. Right,
Speaker 1: But when you don't know what's coming in terms of
Speaker 1: run play, because of the twelve personnel that he uses
Speaker 1: and how he uses those guys, they can hurt you.
Speaker 1: And now with their additions that they that they've that
Speaker 1: they have this from this offseason, right, they added um Ross,
Speaker 1: Right now they have they got John Ross. You know
Speaker 1: you dub again, right? The young Utub boys keep showing
Speaker 1: up four two baby three out of four games. Um,
Speaker 1: but he runs, yeah, he runs a four two. So
Speaker 1: play around and let these guys get the run game
Speaker 1: going if you want to, and we want to be
Speaker 1: aggressive and stop that run. Now you're walking another man
Speaker 1: down into the box. So now you have three guys
Speaker 1: that defend deep. He will run by any of the
Speaker 1: guys that we have on our defense if we don't
Speaker 1: pay attention. What do you have a fifty two yard
Speaker 1: touchdown last week, yes, and like there was no stick
Speaker 1: on that route either, that was simply just just running,
Speaker 1: just running by you. They've got some wide receiver depth,
Speaker 1: you know, adding him and Tony the rookie, and I
Speaker 1: think I'm not sure if you mentioned some of the injuries.
Speaker 1: I don't know if Slayton and even Shepherd can be
Speaker 1: back this week, that's still questionable. But even so, they've
Speaker 1: got they've got weapons. Kenny Galladay last year or last week, yep,
Speaker 1: and then John Ross. I mean, they've got six legitimate
Speaker 1: receivers that you can rotate in and out. None of
Speaker 1: them are as as dangerous as some of the guys
Speaker 1: you face so far. None of them are Keenan Allen Evans.
Speaker 1: But what they do they do well, right, So, so
Speaker 1: Galladay is their possession guy. Galladay is gonna get six
Speaker 1: to eight catches a game, just period. Just know, he's
Speaker 1: gonna probably gonna get ten ten attempts thrown his way.
Speaker 1: He's gonna get six to eight catches at least. Right,
Speaker 1: that's what he does. He's their possession guy. Ross is there,
Speaker 1: take the top off guy right, and then a new
Speaker 1: guy freaking Tony right, Tony right, Yeah, Darius Tones, he
Speaker 1: is shift t yeah is Oh my gosh. He's the
Speaker 1: guy that they want to get the ball to five
Speaker 1: yards right, easy, high precision pass five yards, and then
Speaker 1: he wants to get loose. He wants to embarrass your
Speaker 1: whole defense and turn it into a big play. So
Speaker 1: they have those those aspects. They got the short yardage,
Speaker 1: shifty guy that can make make a big play happen.
Speaker 1: They got Ross I can take the top off. And
Speaker 1: then they got Galladay. Who there, who's every guy that
Speaker 1: just to move the chains? Respect him? Yeah? For me.
Speaker 1: Evan Ingraham and the tight end Evan Egrahm is somebody
Speaker 1: that we have to keep an eye on. He's inconsistent.
Speaker 1: Watch him in other games. He's inconsistent, but some when
Speaker 1: he's way, somehow when he gets the AT and T Stadium,
Speaker 1: he finds a way. You know. I think last year
Speaker 1: when I think they did a reverse with him last
Speaker 1: year at the in the red zone, completely disrespecting us,
Speaker 1: and he scored on that. So I just want to
Speaker 1: see how we attack him with our linebackers. Is really
Speaker 1: good to hear that Kean O'Neill is going to be
Speaker 1: back because I think he helps us in that regard.
Speaker 1: But thinking about Sequon Barkley out of the backfield, like
Speaker 1: he said, man he is, he's electrifying, and as everybody
Speaker 1: knows about him, he is the kind of guy that
Speaker 1: he doesn't hit it after one, two, three, four. It's
Speaker 1: the tip carry that he hits you for thirty forty yards.
Speaker 1: So we just have to keep him contained and not
Speaker 1: give up those big plays. I wonder if he's starting
Speaker 1: to ramp up a little bit, you know. I think
Speaker 1: he hasn't had more than sixteen carries so far, and
Speaker 1: you know, coming off the ACL but to your point,
Speaker 1: catching balls out of the backfield, didn't he have like
Speaker 1: a fifty yard fifty four? He can do that. He's
Speaker 1: done at the Cowboys in the past, So that's something
Speaker 1: to watch for. You. Guys are write about Jason Garrett
Speaker 1: and the play action, you think about his time here.
Speaker 1: He wants the power running game and use play play
Speaker 1: action off of that. If you want to give him
Speaker 1: credit for something, I will say Daniel Jones has done
Speaker 1: a better job this year. Watching that Washington game and
Speaker 1: watching the Saints game. He just looks more comfortable as
Speaker 1: a pocket passer. But takeaways have been the key for
Speaker 1: the Cowboys so far the season, they've got ten And
Speaker 1: I looked it up and Daniel Jones has fumbled away
Speaker 1: a ball at least one every time he's faced the
Speaker 1: Cowboys in his career, so keep that going, so you
Speaker 1: know he's done a better job protecting it. But that's
Speaker 1: been the key for the defense because they have given
Speaker 1: up yards, they've just they've gotten takeaways and they've done
Speaker 1: a solid job for the most part in the red zone. See.
Speaker 1: And that's what makes this matchup so intriguing because the
Speaker 1: Giants big playability is their calling card on offense is Hey,
Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna lull you to sleep and then
Speaker 1: we're gonna strike for the big play. Bang bang. Did
Speaker 1: it against the Saints. It's a reason they were able
Speaker 1: to come back. Dallas will give up the big play
Speaker 1: from now, now and again. And also to running quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: I mean, Sam Darnold was no track star either, and
Speaker 1: he had two rushing touchdowns and he was able to
Speaker 1: run for a couple first downs as well, very similar
Speaker 1: to what Daniel Jones can do. And I just kind
Speaker 1: of wanted to back end what you said about Evan Ingram.
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram forty receptions, four hundred and forty three yards
Speaker 1: and four total touchdowns against the Cowboys in eight games. Jesus,
Speaker 1: he has no more than three hundred yards against any
Speaker 1: other team in his career and forty three against the
Speaker 1: Cowboys and four touchdowns. Yeah, it's back to what you
Speaker 1: were saying about their big playability and are given up
Speaker 1: the big play. It's like it's like the boxing term.
Speaker 1: You know, styles make fights, and this is one of
Speaker 1: those ones where you look at it and say, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: we should Peter role. These guys just show up to
Speaker 1: the statement, just punch them in the mouth. But it's
Speaker 1: a situation where if you do not protect everything, if
Speaker 1: you're not playing era free football, not turning it over,
Speaker 1: not giving up those long touchdowns, are giving up those
Speaker 1: long drives that you talk about, you'll find yourself down
Speaker 1: and have to battle back versus team that you could
Speaker 1: put the bed early these games, Right, I've played in
Speaker 1: games against obviously rivalry games, Giants, Eagles, all those kind
Speaker 1: of things. If you allow those teams to hang around,
Speaker 1: those are the ones that that sneak up on you
Speaker 1: and then that's how you get snake bits. So my
Speaker 1: hope is that we get up. I feel that we
Speaker 1: will get up, and we need to continue to drive
Speaker 1: these boys into the ground. We need to get up
Speaker 1: by seven, fourteen, twenty one, twenty eight, keep going because
Speaker 1: as soon as you have you get up by ten
Speaker 1: points and you let up off the gas, that's when
Speaker 1: teams like this would come up and points did. Yeh,
Speaker 1: that's exactly what they win. The prevent in the fourth quarter,
Speaker 1: and they prevented a win. That's what Carolina almost did
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarters. We did. We let off the gas. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and there are similarities to that matchup. I mean, they
Speaker 1: love the RPO stuff with Daniel Jones and that was
Speaker 1: a problem, especially in the first half with Sam Darnold.
Speaker 1: So it'd be interesting to see how the Cowboys handled
Speaker 1: that because that's that's part of their offense. And the
Speaker 1: Giants last two losses by a combined four points, so
Speaker 1: it's not like they've been getting blown out. They're gonna
Speaker 1: stay competitive throughout the game. And I was, as you
Speaker 1: guys were all talking, I was thinking, man, this first
Speaker 1: half is gonna be crucial, and then you reminded me
Speaker 1: of the Saints. It was the second half that they
Speaker 1: let off the gat. It was the fourth quarter that
Speaker 1: they let off the gas. So it's gonna be all
Speaker 1: four quarters. The giants are gonna come after it. And
Speaker 1: if you're a Cowboys fan right now and you don't

Speaker 1: I'm Kyle Yeomen's Chris Beam in the back doing work
Speaker 1: as always. Gentlemen you time, are you ready for a
Speaker 1: little uh little take it or leave it? This week?
Speaker 1: I am yes, starting to be a little Thursday tradition.
Speaker 1: Try and stir up some some debate amongst the gentleman
Speaker 1: here at the desk, and we'll start things off with
Speaker 1: this statement. The takeaways will continue Heckman mentioned ten takeaways
Speaker 1: in the last segment. It's been ten straight games with
Speaker 1: the takeaway the Cowboys defense, second longest active streak in
Speaker 1: the NFL. Do they continue this week? We'll start with you, Rob, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I do. I think they'll get at least one. That
Speaker 1: it's become a trend. I mean, you go back to
Speaker 1: the second half of last season and that it starts
Speaker 1: to become part of your identity. Now I'm curious. I
Speaker 1: don't know what the recipe is to constantly get them.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like it's it's a quarterback situation
Speaker 1: where he's got the ball in his hands and you
Speaker 1: know he can do something good with it every single week.
Speaker 1: So I don't think you can always count on it.
Speaker 1: And if you don't have the takeaways, you know, that's
Speaker 1: where it gets interesting for this defense. Can they continue
Speaker 1: being productive and limiting big plays and doing and not
Speaker 1: giving possessions to the offense every week? But I think
Speaker 1: it will continue because I think they've got more playmakers
Speaker 1: than they have in the past, and they got more
Speaker 1: leads to play with. Two yes, see whatever other languages,
Speaker 1: we definitely take it because fast, physical, discipline football for
Speaker 1: it brings turnovers. That's that's what we're doing right now.
Speaker 1: We talked about culture and all those things. These guys
Speaker 1: have adapted I have adopted it, and that's what's happening.
Speaker 1: We're seeing that from depth Chart one through three. Everybody
Speaker 1: who steps on the field is given one hundred percent.
Speaker 1: Get tired, get off the field, will get you back
Speaker 1: in there. Give me everything you got, empty the tank
Speaker 1: every play. When you do that and you're disciplined in
Speaker 1: what we're asking you to do, turnovers happen. Now. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say take it because Trayvon Dick seems to be
Speaker 1: on a Peanut Tillman kind of streak right now. It
Speaker 1: seems like the ball he is just a magnet for
Speaker 1: the ball. I mean, you remember that the strip that
Speaker 1: he was on, he was just punching the ball out
Speaker 1: and getting the fun with getting interceptions each and every week.
Speaker 1: And so back to what you were saying about the
Speaker 1: way that our defense is playing. These guys are playing fast.
Speaker 1: Everybody to the ball, and if they get a guy
Speaker 1: held up, they're trying to rip and strip at it.
Speaker 1: So I think it continues. It's going to be one
Speaker 1: of those things that at some point one game where
Speaker 1: a couple of games, we're not going to have it.
Speaker 1: So as we've been experiencing now, these turnovers have been
Speaker 1: happening in bunches, So just gotta keep that streak alive.
Speaker 1: You think teams are just gonna stop throwing to them
Speaker 1: at some point, though, I'm surprised they haven't already. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, as well as Diggs's playing, they don't have
Speaker 1: to come from Diggs, And I don't think that they
Speaker 1: will continue to come from Diggs in that regard. That's no,
Speaker 1: that's no, no shade on him, because I mean you heard,
Speaker 1: I just don't know if you saw the video that
Speaker 1: the Cowboys social media put out. It was amazing video
Speaker 1: they put out yesterday on Instagram. Um that was showing
Speaker 1: all the sideline footage and Coop saying, man, they're gonna
Speaker 1: stop throwing to you, like you better get it while
Speaker 1: you can because they're not gonna throw the ball no more,
Speaker 1: you know. And and that's and that's true, that that's
Speaker 1: what happens in this league when they start seeing you
Speaker 1: as a threat. Um. But because of how the rest
Speaker 1: of the guys are playing, you know, this is a
Speaker 1: very physical game. This is so we might see things
Speaker 1: change from interceptions to straight fumbles because when you run
Speaker 1: around and you hit people, this this this game hurts
Speaker 1: for those that don't know, right, this game hurts and
Speaker 1: and and you don't want to injure a guy, but
Speaker 1: you want to hurt a guy. Yeah, you want to
Speaker 1: put them on. I'm sorry that doesn't sound good, but
Speaker 1: that's that's the NFL. You don't want to injure somebody,
Speaker 1: but you want to hurt them, and you want to
Speaker 1: hurt them to the point where every time they see
Speaker 1: you coming, they want to tense up. And the last
Speaker 1: thing that they're thinking about is the ball security. They
Speaker 1: want to protect themselves and not necessarily ball. You want
Speaker 1: guys thinking that every single time you're around, every time
Speaker 1: they get ready, get ready to get tackled, they should
Speaker 1: see to your point, one person hold him up, everybody
Speaker 1: else beat him up. When was the last time you
Speaker 1: saw a defense where the offense got on the field
Speaker 1: and they were like, we if you catch the ball,
Speaker 1: you better harry up and be looking for the ground
Speaker 1: you get to the ground. Yeah, when was the last
Speaker 1: time you saw a defense like in a minute, It's
Speaker 1: been a minute, in a minute, but yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: that's what that's what that's what we're starting to see, right,
Speaker 1: and and that's why you know this all season we
Speaker 1: talked so much about, you know, in reference to Israel mcquombo, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, in terms of his ability to make the
Speaker 1: team and have an effect. I told you he's not
Speaker 1: going to touch the field until he starts hitting people,
Speaker 1: just because the culture of this defense, you have to
Speaker 1: be able to hit, you have to be willing to hit.
Speaker 1: He won't. He won't touch the field until he throws
Speaker 1: his head in there. But Donald didn't have a problem
Speaker 1: with that. Nope, when he gets back, now, he'll get
Speaker 1: in there. Yeah, he'll get in there. Yeah. So I
Speaker 1: mean that's what you want and man, and that's and
Speaker 1: that's an impact that he'll immediately have. Especially that's what
Speaker 1: he brings to his team almost too, a detriment going
Speaker 1: back to college, like he I'm really aggressive, got some
Speaker 1: targeting stuff in college. You gotta watch that in this
Speaker 1: league because I mean, look at Casey. You gotta watch
Speaker 1: where he hit somebody buying the shoulder apparently. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: Casey showed you even though he's smallness stature, he will
Speaker 1: bring that would Yeah, that I think that's a perfect
Speaker 1: example for what you guys you're talking about is CAZy
Speaker 1: is not the biggest man in the world, and he
Speaker 1: was not known in Atlanta for being a hard hitter.
Speaker 1: But but you know what, but he comes over the
Speaker 1: middle and he lays the wood. When you're in that environment,
Speaker 1: the last person you want to be on film to
Speaker 1: your teammates is the one who's not doing something. You
Speaker 1: understand when you come back on Mondays, you're watching film.
Speaker 1: Everybody's sitting there watching film together, and it could be hell,
Speaker 1: And it could be if the coach will take that
Speaker 1: little laser beam and sim push pause and circle you
Speaker 1: all day, lone, be like, what is this bare? When
Speaker 1: everybody else is sitting up there running around hitting. When
Speaker 1: you see other guys sprinting to the pile, jumping on
Speaker 1: the pile, and you're the one guy that's not, it
Speaker 1: looks real bad. So be the one guy that doesn't
Speaker 1: throw us head in there, that wants to tense up
Speaker 1: and turn his back or turn his shoulder. You're gonna
Speaker 1: look real soft, right, sawft soft? This is this sounds
Speaker 1: a lot like what I feel like whenever I watch
Speaker 1: GMAT sending against videos on our talking cast. What is this?
Speaker 1: What is this right here? What is that? That's your
Speaker 1: film room? Exactly? All right, take it or leave it.
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is an MVP candidate in twenty twenty one. Yes,
Speaker 1: taking it, taking it? Got it? Okay? Yeah, hell yeah, nice,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna go take it. And again, I'm
Speaker 1: just you know, I've been hurt before. I'm in a
Speaker 1: little card. Let let me get past this week, Listen,
Speaker 1: I just want to give well. I mean, it's gonna
Speaker 1: come down to how the team does. Absolutely, I mean
Speaker 1: it's a team. It's a team award as much as
Speaker 1: a point. Every successful team's quarterback is always in that conversation.
Speaker 1: But I mean, dude, like they're only they're fourteenth and
Speaker 1: passing offense right now, which is so misleading because they
Speaker 1: don't have to right now. But he's seventy five percent
Speaker 1: completion percentage madness, one seventeen passer rating, and he's on
Speaker 1: pace for forty touchdown passes. Seventy five percent is the
Speaker 1: most staggering stat that you mentioned. Ye, out of all
Speaker 1: those things, seventy five percent is insane. Sixty percent is good, right,
Speaker 1: yea percent is good in football and he's not checkdown Chuck. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know you start that, that's insane. You
Speaker 1: want to you want to hear something that makes that
Speaker 1: even more insane. Dak Prescott is the fourth quarterback since
Speaker 1: nineteen fifty with ten passing touchdowns and a seventy five
Speaker 1: plus completion percentage in his team's first four games of
Speaker 1: the season. You want to know the other three. Russell
Speaker 1: Wilson in twenty twenty, he was he was at MVP
Speaker 1: caliber at that point. He was all over that conversation,
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning in twenty thirteen, Tom Brady in two thousand
Speaker 1: Monday Night Football Goat. Yeah. So you've got the Goat,
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, the other goat, Peyton Manning and potentially the
Speaker 1: modern Goat, and Russell Wilson, and then you've got Dak Prescott.
Speaker 1: Those are the four that have done it. It's pretty impressive.
Speaker 1: What you disagree with this dament? No, No, I'm just
Speaker 1: you're down on your boy. I don't want to talk
Speaker 1: about your other team. Russell, sorry that that Seattle team.
Speaker 1: Not No, that's Those are great numbers and he's doing
Speaker 1: it in the offense is balanced. It's not like it
Speaker 1: was last year. Whether everybody's just empty calories. He's throwing
Speaker 1: for a bunch of yards and the team is still
Speaker 1: losing that efficiency that I'm talking about. That that seventy
Speaker 1: seventy five percent completion ray just points to the way
Speaker 1: how balanced this team is. I love it, and to
Speaker 1: the people that's all these are just short throws digging
Speaker 1: you know what. Look, he's picking teams apart. And you
Speaker 1: saw on that throw to a Marii Cooper all the
Speaker 1: people that questioned his accuracy. That was one of those
Speaker 1: moments where well he dropped that thing in the bucket. Oh,
Speaker 1: that was such a good throw. And that just shows
Speaker 1: you how he's mature, even on that curl route. I
Speaker 1: mean there's been different times, and especially as rookie year,
Speaker 1: where that just wasn't in his wheelhouse to do. Now, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're not having to throw the ball down field. And
Speaker 1: that's a testment not only to dak Right his efficiency
Speaker 1: and his accuracy. That's see, that's a testament to these
Speaker 1: receivers and tight ends that are running great routes and
Speaker 1: getting open and then Kellen Moore that's putting them in
Speaker 1: positions to get open based upon what he expects the
Speaker 1: defenses to propose to put out there that. I mean this.
Speaker 1: I know people want to see the big plays. I
Speaker 1: know people want to see the big plays, but you
Speaker 1: much rather see W's. Yeah, you much rather see W.
Speaker 1: So if it requires him taking two shots down the
Speaker 1: field every game, even though you want to see ten,
Speaker 1: Guess what high precision passes is. Where it's at seventy
Speaker 1: is redicut. That's that's the equivalent to somebody batting five hundred.
Speaker 1: It's just madness. It's just madness. So keep it up.
Speaker 1: Run the ball, high precision passes. Let our receivers and
Speaker 1: tight ends and running backs do what they do in terms,
Speaker 1: they get paid to catch the ball and running get
Speaker 1: some yachyr orders. Let them do it. I like what
Speaker 1: you said there. If everybody wants to see the big play,
Speaker 1: but you would rather see a w You remember last year,
Speaker 1: Week four, the season against the Cleveland Browns. I mean
Speaker 1: there's a high scoring game. Name the biggest play that
Speaker 1: happened for the Dallas Cowboys, any of you try and
Speaker 1: name it. Cowboys lost that game to Cleveland. It was
Speaker 1: a one score game at the end of it. Because
Speaker 1: the Dallas team came storming back in that ball game,
Speaker 1: but you don't know what big play happened. You would
Speaker 1: rather have the wins because you remember the losses and
Speaker 1: the wins more than you remember the big play. I
Speaker 1: completely agree, So next one, take it or leave it?
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott has returned to top three running back status
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Right now, take it or leave it?
Speaker 1: Heck Man, we're taking everything, so we got to leave something.
Speaker 1: Now I'm going to I'm gonna take it. I mean,
Speaker 1: he's bringing the spoon with him to work, and he's
Speaker 1: looking lighter, sleeker. Zeke, you know, so everything that and
Speaker 1: I think it's only gonna get better for him as
Speaker 1: the season goes along. We're gonna go against you know,
Speaker 1: even when we get to Kansas City and everyone's gonna
Speaker 1: be talking about that matchup between Dak and Patty Mahomes,
Speaker 1: it's still gonna be Zeke. It's gonna be Zeke. That's
Speaker 1: gonna get the lion share of that work against a
Speaker 1: bad Kansas City defense. You know, he should be get
Speaker 1: the lion share of the carriages against the Giants. Just saying,
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry's the leading rusher right now in the NFL
Speaker 1: with five hundred and ten yards. Zeke is fourth, and
Speaker 1: he's only twenty yards off a second place, and the
Speaker 1: guys in front of him are Nick Chubb and Joe Mixon.
Speaker 1: So even statistically he's not in the top three, but
Speaker 1: he is right in that conversation, and I would argue
Speaker 1: that he's better than both of those guys just pound
Speaker 1: for pound. What do you think, Rob, Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think Derrick Henry is the only he's almost like
Speaker 1: the only feature every down back in the league right now.
Speaker 1: He's the only guy that's gotten I think thirty plus
Speaker 1: carries in a game, So you gotta, I think put
Speaker 1: him at the top because of his workload. Beyond that,
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I don't think there's been a guy
Speaker 1: that's been more impressive than Zeke. Nick Chubb his second.
Speaker 1: He's got a nice, you know, running back tandem in Cleveland,
Speaker 1: and that's what the Cowboys have here with Pollard. I
Speaker 1: buy that right now. I mean, he's running as well
Speaker 1: as we've seen him run since twenty sixteen. Say it
Speaker 1: with your chest, Rob, He's running as well as we've
Speaker 1: seen him since twenty sixteen. Nice. I like here in that.
Speaker 1: I'm taking it. I'm taking it all day long. The
Speaker 1: reason being, Zeke is a lot more than what you
Speaker 1: see on film, what you see in the stats. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Zeke is so much more than what people see in
Speaker 1: the stats. People see Paula going out there making the
Speaker 1: big plays, and that's awesome. We love it and we
Speaker 1: will take it and keep doing it. Zeke goes out
Speaker 1: there and does the dirty work. Zeke's gonna run. He's
Speaker 1: averaging four and a half yards per carry, four and
Speaker 1: a half yards percare quietly, yeah, quiet because he hasn't
Speaker 1: hit me. Last game he had a couple of breakout runs.
Speaker 1: Aside from that, people were I don't know Zeke is.
Speaker 1: They're questioning it right because he hadn't had over one
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty yard running game like he did last week.
Speaker 1: So what Zeke is efficient? Four and a half yards
Speaker 1: per cary, He's falling forward, he's making good cuts, he's
Speaker 1: turning a negative places into positive plays. And then guess
Speaker 1: what when Dak wants to sit back there and throw
Speaker 1: the ball, guess who's out there picking off the knees
Speaker 1: of linebackers that are blitzing Zeke. Pauler had a great
Speaker 1: block the other day too. I'm gonna put it in
Speaker 1: the film, or he blew somebody up and allows Zeke
Speaker 1: the touchdown to to Coop. Yeah. Right, So, I mean
Speaker 1: these guys are doing a great job of blocking as well,
Speaker 1: and people need to respect that aspect. It's not just
Speaker 1: when they get the ball. They have a whole other
Speaker 1: job to do when they're back there walking, and it
Speaker 1: takes a grown man to do it. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: agree in seeing Paula throw his head in there and
Speaker 1: make that block. It says a lot about him because
Speaker 1: people kind of doubt because he's small and statue if
Speaker 1: he can actually do it. The thing that really kind
Speaker 1: of sickens me right now in football is how like
Speaker 1: PFF and that Chris collins Worth crowd is devalue and
Speaker 1: just devaluing the running back positions. They're devaluing the running
Speaker 1: back position. And I don't. Look. The thing is, I
Speaker 1: don't I don't understand how football has changed that much.
Speaker 1: And we use the passing league terms that we don't
Speaker 1: understand field position, ball control that the Cowboys have at
Speaker 1: their disposal. With that kind of running back, you just
Speaker 1: can't plug and play. And there's a mentality out of
Speaker 1: here out there that the Shanahans of the world don't
Speaker 1: actually need a number one. See, they can get a
Speaker 1: free agent, They can get anybody to go out there
Speaker 1: and do what a number one running back would do.
Speaker 1: And I just don't think that's true. I think when
Speaker 1: you have a guy like Derrick Henry and Tennessee, I
Speaker 1: think when you have a guy like Nick Chubb in Cleveland,
Speaker 1: it just makes everything on your offense run better. And
Speaker 1: if he's not a threat, the defense can just pin
Speaker 1: the ears and come after you well. And yeah, and
Speaker 1: there's two sides to like when everybody and Zeke joked
Speaker 1: about yesterday, I don't care about people who thought I
Speaker 1: was done, you know, but there's there's two sides that,
Speaker 1: like he did say, I needed to cut some weight
Speaker 1: and work on my quickness and all that, and you
Speaker 1: see it. But at the same time, last year was
Speaker 1: a problem. I mean, all those different line combinations you
Speaker 1: don't have, Dak they you're totally one dimensional as an offense.
Speaker 1: That's really hard for running back. And then you know,
Speaker 1: people bring in the salary and I understand that, but
Speaker 1: it's hard for anybody to do that. And you see
Speaker 1: what he can do, like he said, with a with
Speaker 1: a strong offseason and was Zach Martin in front of
Speaker 1: you and Dak quarterback. You know that's gonna help anybody,
Speaker 1: no matter how much money you make. Zach Martin's the
Speaker 1: highest graded player on Pro Football Focus through the first
Speaker 1: four weeks of the year. There's a guard everyone MVP.
Speaker 1: He should I don't know, maybe maybe he should be
Speaker 1: in that conversation a great He has been almost perfect
Speaker 1: and that's hard to do. We come back here on

Speaker 1: presented by Tostitos, Rob Phillips, Isaiah Stanback, heck my Harrison.
Speaker 1: I'm Kyle Yeoman's and I asked this going into the break,
Speaker 1: should the Cowboys consider spying Daniel Jones? We mentioned his
Speaker 1: athletic ability. No, he is not the most fleet of
Speaker 1: foot quarterback, but he can definitely run the football almost
Speaker 1: had an eighty yard touchdown Scamper a year ago, and
Speaker 1: the only reason he didn't because he got sniped from
Speaker 1: the top upper deck. I mean fell at the twenty.
Speaker 1: He didn't score on that did not. I totally forgot
Speaker 1: about it. No, but yeah, so I mean he can
Speaker 1: run the football. You mean the Giants leading rusher. He
Speaker 1: is the Giants leading rusher right now? Is he really? Yes?
Speaker 1: He thought, because Sakwan's got one eighty six. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: I think I think Jones has one eighty eight. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, and they both had two touchdowns. Because there's
Speaker 1: not you're being paid too much? But is that a
Speaker 1: thing the Cowboys defense should consider? No? Okay, No, I
Speaker 1: think you need to be aware of him. He hurts
Speaker 1: teams because guys forget about him. And it's one of
Speaker 1: the one I was saying, one of the things that
Speaker 1: you can't let allow these guys get the ground game going,
Speaker 1: because then they're allowed to do formations that you know,
Speaker 1: a bunch of formations like heck I mentioned earlier that
Speaker 1: really make you focus on who you have, right, so
Speaker 1: all your attention goes to who do I have? What's
Speaker 1: the release? Are we in and out of this? Are
Speaker 1: we maunlocking this are these guys crossing our safety's face
Speaker 1: And guess what through all that, who's the last person
Speaker 1: you're thinking about? Quarterback? Quarterback? Right, because he's not a burner.
Speaker 1: You say, okay, we can we can pay coverage and
Speaker 1: worry about him later. And that's when he gets you.
Speaker 1: That's when he gets you to That's why we can't
Speaker 1: allow them to get into these these down and distances
Speaker 1: that are favorable for them, because he can pick up
Speaker 1: six yards easy. Yeah, And you look, I just here
Speaker 1: and Jalen Hurts at this point in their career are
Speaker 1: almost kind of identical in that way, and you know
Speaker 1: they want to extend, to play and keep the chains moving.
Speaker 1: But I think for our defense, they just have to
Speaker 1: do what they do, and that's fly around and man.
Speaker 1: Watching the tape, I just man, it's number ninety seven. Really,
Speaker 1: this is what I'm seeing, Like, Ohsa Diggi zor is
Speaker 1: he is man. He his first step, his explosiveness, he's
Speaker 1: the way that his gap responsibility, all of those things
Speaker 1: that he does, I mean, how strong he is at
Speaker 1: the point of attack. It just points to a guy
Speaker 1: that's gonna be good for a very, very long time,
Speaker 1: and I just feel like defensively, if we just line
Speaker 1: up and whoop they button, we're gonna get it. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be over with because I don't believe that they
Speaker 1: have an offensive line that could withstand the kind of
Speaker 1: pressure that we're gonna bring. And you know, some teams
Speaker 1: have let off of them, like the Saints did they
Speaker 1: let up off of them and let him back in
Speaker 1: the game. That's something that's a mistake that we cannot make.
Speaker 1: And Daniel Jones is just like every other quarterback I've seen.
Speaker 1: If you get pressure on him, he will start moving around,
Speaker 1: he will start second guessing himself, and that will open
Speaker 1: up the Cowboys opportunity for those sacks strip fumbles. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I agree. Yeah, I mean daro line has been kind
Speaker 1: of an issue for them in recent years. I think
Speaker 1: it's been better. Um, but I mean, did they Cowboys
Speaker 1: really spy hurts all that much game? I don't think so. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. You know, And you're getting you're
Speaker 1: getting counted back. You've got the speed back there, so
Speaker 1: you're a faster, more of a sideline to sideline defense
Speaker 1: than you were last year. So I feel better about it.
Speaker 1: And Jeron curse. Jeron curse is going to have an
Speaker 1: effect on this game. Also when when I was talking
Speaker 1: about Evan Egrahm and also backs out of the backfield
Speaker 1: that when we go with that big nickel package, he'll
Speaker 1: have a lot to say about that. And also whether
Speaker 1: Dania Jones want to take that punishment coming out of
Speaker 1: the backfield. Is by to say, when you hit him,
Speaker 1: when you have an opportunity to hit him, hit the
Speaker 1: crap out of him, hit hit him and make him
Speaker 1: see Jesus and when and bring him back to light.
Speaker 1: And just know that from that point forward, if you
Speaker 1: decide to cross this line of scrimmage, this is what
Speaker 1: you got to deal with. Let's be the title of
Speaker 1: today's show. Emanuell make him see Jesus? Is that you.
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any better way to end. Let's
Speaker 1: curse up the middle. All right, That's it for us
