My shirt is green because I was representing 0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:31.920 the Big Brothers Big Program. I'm just trying to make 0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:40.600 sure that we like that. They might have been found 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:46.880 brother he lost got another guy in that bear trap, 0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.800 didn't you, yeah, I put I called Chris early because 0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:51.280 he hit me with the green too. I'm just trying 0:01:51.280 --> 0:01:53.240 to do good for the community. I'm trying to make 0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:56.560 sure that that bear trap didn't I thought. 0:01:56.440 --> 0:01:58.680 It was for that all that money that you got 0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:02.920 over there, you know, coming from road that Jesse big big. 0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:07.720 I ain't go hid, I say somebody, I like, like, 0:02:07.880 --> 0:02:08.840 I just want to be. 0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:14.240 Like the hide the I'm thank you Lord. 0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:20.240 But getting into the game beforehand, contract done, d ron 0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:24.560 Bland signed him big money. Pay the man, four year 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:26.840 extension ninety two million dollars. 0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:32.720 How much as that guaranteed? Fifty fitty fitty. I don't 0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:34.799 want to be the baron back. It's really two years 0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:37.000 extension thirty four million dollars because after the first two 0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:39.640 years and more money is guaranteed. But it's money, nonetheless, 0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:41.480 you know what I'm saying. 0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:44.799 But you gotta look at the you go look at 0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:46.320 he got, Prince. 0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:50.119 He's still getting is he getting thirty four thirty four thirty. 0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:55.000 Thirty four right now? But listen, pick fifty a guy 0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:58.600 who looked like he was going to be that's great money, 0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:01.880 and it's the Cowboys locked the guy up for the 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:02.919 next couple of years and. 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:04.960 You still go and he could still go get paid 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:06.240 if he does what he's supposed to do. 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:07.640 Because if he lives. 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:10.359 Up to that contract, we all know that obviously they're 0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:12.679 gonna make you sit into about that third year, get 0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:15.200 to that final stretch, then you get that extra leg 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:15.440 to it. 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:16.360 But if he lives up. 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:18.799 To that contract, he's gonna be coming over there telling them, hey, 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:23.959 let's let's get to a year like years, how. 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:26.239 Would that put him at whatever young. 0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:31.239 You can still go hit to bring show one more time. 0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:33.440 So for him, like it's a maybe when they said 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:35.920 it's a team friendly deal. The numbers look good and 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:37.600 it's a lot of fluff on the outside, but when 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:39.400 you get to like what Big Mama used to say, 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:42.160 the meat and the potatoes of it, thirty four million 0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:46.720 for the next two years guaranteed deserve too, And like 0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:50.120 he's with all the stuff that's been going around with 0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:52.920 not only from his play and being a veteran in 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:56.080 that lockership, but in the in the such dire need 0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:59.320 time in space of the cowboys of that veteran leadership. 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:01.720 We know we have that, you know you have CD. 0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:04.720 But on that defensive side, there's no more, Michael Parson, 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.760 Trayvon Diggs, you know that TSAGA has been what it's been, 0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:10.000 so now it's like, hey, let's pay you, young bull, 0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:12.480 and you rightfully so you earned it. So what they say, 0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:14.280 you just got to strike when the pot is hot, 0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:15.880 and helucked up and did that. 0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:20.200 Speaking of Trayvon Diggs, he's a guy who has been 0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:23.880 medically cleared and is marching towards getting to the game. 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:25.520 He came out and he said the other day that 0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:31.280 he's about seventy five to eighty percent prediction that he 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:37.040 plays on Thursday. If you're I'm gonna start with you Church. 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:39.640 I thought he's seventy eighty percent healthy. 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:42.840 No, he's one hundred percent health. He's one hundred percent 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:45.720 according to what he's been cleared. 0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:47.880 If you didn't catch that, let me go ahead. He 0:04:47.880 --> 0:04:50.320 said he didn't. He was. He played when he was 0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:52.360 one hundred percent. He played like he was at seventy eight. 0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:56.440 But he's saying there's a seventy chance that he goes 0:04:57.000 --> 0:05:03.120 on Thursday. For Trayvon and what this defense needs in 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:07.400 the secondary? Oh yeah, are you hoping he goes out 0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:09.560 there and he plays or you're saying give it one more. 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:11.560 We'll give me one more week, young fella, and then 0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:14.640 come back. Maybe maybe it gets the giants, maybe maybe 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:17.520 week three. Because it was always Trayvon was saying, don't 0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:19.200 put me on Pop, don't put me on I are 0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:24.440 I'm gonna be ready before week four. So are you saying, hey, Trayvon, 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:27.040 go ahead, damn play or give it one more week? 0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:30.440 If it's me, If it's me, right. 0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:38.080 Organization, this is the player of me. 0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:42.479 I'm in Diggs's situation. I'm gonna give it another week. Man, 0:05:43.040 --> 0:05:44.760 I got to see what this past rush is gonna 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:48.719 look like. You already kind of painted your yourself with 0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:50.840 a red dot on the back by not being here 0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:51.680 all ot as. 0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:54.360 We all understand that. Now if you go out there, 0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:55.680 you weren't here all t is. 0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:58.120 If you go out there and the film don't look great, 0:05:58.360 --> 0:06:00.160 if you go out there and you get bombed, were 0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:00.760 bag bad on? 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:03.400 People just gonna it was because of this. It was 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:03.760 because of that. 0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:06.320 It was because so the play of me is looking 0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:08.240 at it like this, all right, let me see what 0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:10.520 that that pass rush look like. Let me see you 0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:12.560 because you're going out there against shoot Bowl champs who 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:14.800 got two bona fid dogs on the outside of Davalantaine 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:16.640 Smith and A. J. Brown, which you're gonna be out 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:19.119 there with them. There's no let me get the slide, 0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:21.080 let me get the tight end over here. You're gonna 0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:23.280 be watching one of those two guys the entirety of 0:06:23.320 --> 0:06:25.360 the game, and you don't want to go out there 0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:27.520 and get bombed on. So if I'm gonna play, I'm like, hey, man, 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:29.479 we want more week to make sure I'm one hundred 0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:32.720 percent healthy. But organizationally, you, hey thod we need you, 0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:35.280 We need you out there right now. You know we 0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:36.960 ain't got the big dog rushing the pass and no 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:39.360 more the secondary is young. You got bland out there, 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:42.360 another a lot of unproven talent outside of Blanding the 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:45.200 two safeties. So the organization put him out there. But 0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:47.640 if I'm in his shoes, and that's just being honest, 0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:48.880 I'm like, hey, let me get another week. 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:52.800 I think something you said is going to actually lead 0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:55.520 to him probably trying to play a little bit sooner 0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:58.320 than later. It's simply because he wasn't here doing the 0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:01.400 OTAs and he missed so much with the off season, 0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:06.120 and there was a situation with his with his workout 0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:08.480 bonus and things like that for him not being here 0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:12.080 as well. So being that that's the case, and he 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:15.520 I feel like he has to prove himself to the organization. 0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:18.160 Just like you said, he knows who he is the player, 0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.560 he knows who he is, but right now the organization 0:07:20.720 --> 0:07:23.240 is looking at him sideways, you know what I mean. 0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.240 And so I think that with that, there's a little 0:07:25.240 --> 0:07:27.200 bit of pressure there. And I totally understand where you're 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:29.200 coming from too as well. But him sitting back this 0:07:29.280 --> 0:07:32.120 week watching past us this week, if it ain't looking right. 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:33.960 This week, it ain't gonna change next week. Nine times 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:35.200 out of ten, you. 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:35.840 Ain't a J. 0:07:36.000 --> 0:07:37.920 Smithson and Brown next week. 0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:40.680 That's you know what I mean, Like you but like 0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:41.800 but but that. 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:45.200 It's just one. It's just one though. 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:46.840 He's that guy. 0:07:47.120 --> 0:07:48.760 Yeah you got that. 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:52.440 You got the line up against those guys real talk, right, 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:54.680 So we don't see what we're gonna see what's happening. 0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:57.000 So I was I think that, you know, like what 0:07:57.160 --> 0:07:59.880 you said, he said, he's seventy to eighty whatever percent 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:01.160 to get ready to play. 0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:04.120 But I think nine times out of ten, he's gon 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:05.360 lace him up and try to get out. 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:07.560 There the mantra, I want to We talked about the 0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:10.680 past rush, so you know about what happens up front. 0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:14.119 Michah Parsons he's in Green Bay, right, fifty two sacks 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:16.600 I believe fifty three sacks I believe he's had over 0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:20.520 his first four years here. That's right. Now, that's three 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:23.680 more then the top three sack guy that you have 0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:30.000 on this team combined to all the guys combines combined. 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:34.880 So how does the Cowboys from a defensive standpoint, Now 0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:38.439 Matt eba plus is a new defensive coordinator, how do 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:40.760 you make up for that? Like, how do you go 0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:43.520 out there and you make up for that that pressure 0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:46.640 that Michael Parson put on quarterbacks that get off that 0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:49.240 you know, that that chasing quarterbacks out of the out 0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:52.120 of the pocket and ultimately those sacks. You know what 0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:54.000 Jalen Hurts is right, Like, he's not He's not a 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.920 stand in the pocket. You know, throw you out, throw you, 0:08:57.040 --> 0:08:58.760 you know, throw the game down your throat all day. 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.880 But he'll run. He's very strong lower body. How do 0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:04.719 you create that pressure from an upfront standpoint so that 0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:06.920 the guys on the back end aren't hung out to 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.880 dry because he has nineteen seconds back there to throw 0:09:09.920 --> 0:09:10.200 the ball. 0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:15.000 Well, the great equalized teamwork at the end of the day, 0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:17.360 teamwork and honesty. You gotta go in there and just 0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:20.880 talk to your defense, like we understand what that one 0:09:21.000 --> 0:09:25.040 individual gave us, but like one individual doesn't win you gain. 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:27.880 Football is such a team sport, like when it's funny 0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:30.680 because I seen a quote from Tom Brady this past weekend. 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:32.600 I guess he did an interview and he was talking 0:09:32.600 --> 0:09:35.240 about what he looks at is in a quarterback when. 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:37.440 He's watching them. He said, football is a team ball. 0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:38.839 Like when we go over there, I made it a 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.760 point to have everybody in ball, like you're gonna have 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:42.400 Micah there. 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:45.400 But like those great defenses, those are the guys that. 0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:48.000 Are played well to where I can sit over here 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:50.120 and the coach can call something and I ain't got 0:09:50.240 --> 0:09:52.600 to tell Barry like, hey, go ahead. You know, once 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:54.640 I get this agg set, because the way that I play, 0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:55.160 I'm gonna do that. 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:55.920 Go ahead. 0:09:56.360 --> 0:09:57.959 It's gonna be a free gap and you shoot it 0:09:58.000 --> 0:09:59.920 on the inside. Right now, make sure you get the 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:02.800 TfL Like we can have that type of dynamic that 0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:06.480 comes with chemistry, that comes with comfortability, that comes with execution, 0:10:06.679 --> 0:10:09.280 and that comes with schematics. Ibra Flus is going to 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:12.080 have the scheme that is made for defensivelignment. Now, yes, 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:14.840 you lost Michael Parson, but let's be real. You brought 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:17.760 in two big dogs right now. You got Kenny Clark, 0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:20.240 you got odg Zuo this and there. Now, with those 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:22.199 two guys, if they do what they're supposed to in 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:24.959 this type of scheme, it's going to leave opportunity to 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:27.079 see who's going to be the next guy. And with 0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:30.240 these new opportunities, we got a lot of young, unproven 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:31.520 guys that have not played. 0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:35.120 You got a second round pick that it has been everybody's. 0:10:34.640 --> 0:10:36.520 Been raving about, and he got to come in here 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.520 like sometimes you got to put up a shut up, 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:41.160 if that makes sense. And I think the one thing 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:43.800 that's going to equalize that. Yeah, you might have lost 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:47.520 out on fifty three sacks, but let's be realistic with 0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:49.959 those sacks and numbers you had. The biggest knock that 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:52.040 was on Michael was he wasn't able to produce in 0:10:52.120 --> 0:10:54.000 the big game. He wasn't able to do this and 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:56.640 win the actual game friend them, and you wanted one 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:58.319 guy to do that. Well, Now, if you don't have 0:10:58.440 --> 0:11:01.480 the egos, you have everybody that's on the even playing field, 0:11:01.520 --> 0:11:04.080 and you got a hungry dog that hunts best. Sometimes 0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:06.079 you're not always watching out for the big dog, like 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:08.120 you got the guy that you know that wins. But 0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:11.360 then after that, what they say, any given Sunday, anybody 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:13.840 can get beat. And so long as we have that chemistry, 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:16.520 I guarantee you each coach is gonna say every time, 0:11:16.880 --> 0:11:19.559 I want four guys on the D line that meshes 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:22.720 well versus one guy that's out there and three unproven 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.400 factors that we're saying, like, hey, you're the guy and 0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:27.680 fit around it. But let's get guys to actually mesh 0:11:27.800 --> 0:11:30.199 well and jail together. Because when they jail together, it's 0:11:30.240 --> 0:11:32.480 like mud. They come together, they build that wall. And 0:11:32.559 --> 0:11:35.000 once you build that wall up front, now it's easier 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.080 for guys like y'all sitting in the back end. If 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:39.360 it's not like, oh snap, they running a great game, 0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:41.640 like yes, Mike can be somebody one on one, but 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:44.840 you can't count for those guys when you're doing your 0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:47.040 twist stunts. You're moving around and doing stuff like that. 0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:49.640 So I think this is gonna free up a lot 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.600 of things, and this is gonna give you the ability 0:11:52.720 --> 0:11:54.199 to see who can win the one on ones and 0:11:54.240 --> 0:11:57.200 who can do the pass rush games to where schematically it's. 0:11:57.120 --> 0:11:59.120 Not like y'all know as well as I do. 0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:01.079 When you have that guy that comes in there and 0:12:01.120 --> 0:12:04.280 his fastball is a is a ghost pass rush move, 0:12:04.679 --> 0:12:06.760 don't mess with him. Do this now that you have 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.280 somebody that's not proving it gives us a little more 0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:12.520 flexibility to say, let's do an overload formation. The ego's 0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:15.360 not there, so I can tell you to go rush 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:18.079 from you know, it's zero shade and have those different 0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:18.920 games come through there. 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:19.800 If that makes sense. 0:12:20.000 --> 0:12:23.480 No, it makes sense to me. I just look up 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:25.840 and I go, yeah, but that's still Lane Johnson right 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:32.000 out the man. Yeah. But I think you make a 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:35.120 great point about Assigmon Lineman football, right, like having everybody 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:37.280 on the same page, on the same accord, on one string. 0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:40.080 Like if everybody's where they're supposed to be, it becomes 0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:42.760 it becomes teach tape it be. 0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:43.559 And it gives you. 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:47.280 It gives you more flexibility to figure out what we're 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:49.600 going to do and how we can do it, versus like, hey, 0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:52.400 I'm going over here and I'm begging you to hit 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:55.120 that home run, because we know everybody doesn't hit that 0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:58.719 home run, even if you are the greatest home run person, like, 0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:01.400 you're gonna miss every now again. But it makes up 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:04.800 for when you have a great Batman wasn't who he 0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:08.319 was without robbing, Like the Justice League wasn't everything. Like, yeah, 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:10.400 they had Superman and stuff like that, but they had 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:12.800 their other guy that came over and sometime took the 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:15.000 big role. And so now I think you're gonna be 0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:17.040 able to see a lot more that with these other guys. 0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:19.280 All right, So what we're gonna do is gonna take 0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:21.280 our first break. When we come back, We're gonna flip 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:22.839 it go to the other side of the ball. That's 0:13:22.880 --> 0:13:24.760 why I think a lot of these games for the 0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:29.120 Cowboys will be won. Oh shoulder and the legs of 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:32.199 one Dak Prescottson, we'll talk about him, the new offense, 0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:35.679 the receivers on the outside, the offensive lineman, and how 0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:38.800 this woiotball play out against the Philadelphia Eagles this Thursday 0:13:38.880 --> 0:13:42.480 night on Thursday Night football in Philadelphia.

Let's go. This 0:16:38.080 --> 0:16:40.880 is game week. This is the player's lows Barry Church 0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:44.680 to watch it more at door saying your boy, Jesse Holly. 0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:48.360 Cowboys taking on the Philadelhia Eagles Thursday Night Football. We're 0:16:48.480 --> 0:16:51.680 opening up the season out the gate in eighty eight. 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:55.480 This is the first game on. We talked a lot 0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:58.400 about this offense in the offseason. The Cowboys went out 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:03.120 and they signed George Pick George to add CD Lamb. 0:17:03.160 --> 0:17:05.720 Who I believe This is just my belief. This is 0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:09.399 just Jesse Holly's belief from what I've seen over the years, 0:17:09.560 --> 0:17:12.200 the maturation of and the growth of CED Lamb to 0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:14.440 what I've seen with my own eyes and training camp. 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:17.240 I listen to see what CD says. I watch them. 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:21.600 I know the position. I believe when we get done 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:24.440 with this twenty twenty five twenty twenty six football season, 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:29.919 that there won't be the conversation of does CD belong 0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:33.399 in the top three. There will be the conversation of 0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:36.400 who belongs in the top three? Because CD is number one. 0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:42.000 That's what I believe. I'm in a lot of Cowboys. 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:45.480 He's already top three to my being. 0:17:46.760 --> 0:17:47.960 Who he gonna stamp it? 0:17:48.880 --> 0:17:51.760 Yeah, Chase, I get you, and he's gonna get a 0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:52.200 lot of time. 0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:55.600 So Bingles having the best receiving quote, we're talking about 0:17:55.600 --> 0:17:57.320 the Cowboys having the best receiving court. 0:17:57.440 --> 0:17:59.399 I don't know about best receiving call. Because I'm not 0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:04.120 vouching for yours pickets. I gotta, I gotta. It's gonna 0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:05.360 be a little time, gonna have to take the him. 0:18:05.560 --> 0:18:08.080 I'm vouching for George right now. Put it in the books. 0:18:08.320 --> 0:18:09.720 That's fine with me. You got to stand on that 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:13.640 ten toes down where I'm standing. I'm standing on ten 0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:18.800 toes down. If number four is healthy, Dak Prescott City, 0:18:19.000 --> 0:18:24.679 Lamb is going to ascend to a a stratosphere. 0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:27.919 Okay, so what's your question, man, since you're giving us 0:18:27.960 --> 0:18:30.440 all this praise because you on the same boat as 0:18:30.520 --> 0:18:31.480 this man, Barry. 0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:32.400 Church is on the same boat. 0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:33.880 So now I think. 0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:40.440 Because for you, there we go where it's new. He 0:18:40.520 --> 0:18:41.520 had to play the bad guy. 0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:47.879 This trust I said in eighty eight. I trust in 0:18:48.000 --> 0:18:50.040 eighty eight. I trust I watched eighty eight go off 0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:52.160 last year with a bump shoulder in the backup quarterback. 0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:58.320 Still still it was unguardable. It was unguardable. That's what 0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:01.720 on the other side, they said, CD and a bunch 0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:05.360 of babies, and that was facts. And he still went 0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:09.720 off with the backup quarterback when everybody and their mama 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:12.480 knew when we came into this game, our objective and 0:19:12.600 --> 0:19:15.240 goal in the passing game from the defensive standpoint is 0:19:15.280 --> 0:19:17.280 to stop eighty eight couldn't do and couldn't do it 0:19:17.920 --> 0:19:21.440 well young rush back. There no running game, no running game. 0:19:22.320 --> 0:19:23.040 Left tackle. 0:19:23.480 --> 0:19:27.679 God awful, man, you're putting up a great argument for Barry. 0:19:27.680 --> 0:19:29.080 I wish I would have heard from him, like. 0:19:29.240 --> 0:19:33.919 And so I'm again, I'm just talking about eight. I'm 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:36.680 talking about CD is taking that next step. I ain't 0:19:36.720 --> 0:19:39.280 say ten wins. I ain't saying that Dak got trust. 0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:42.840 I'm saying eighty eight is getting ready to put on 0:19:43.000 --> 0:19:45.560 some numbers and put on the show that hasn't been 0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:46.840 seen in a long time. 0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:49.320 I believe in that he's on that trajectory. I mean, 0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:50.760 every year he has improved. 0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:54.080 Just like you said, this is the type of thing 0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:55.760 that you want to see from one of your star 0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:58.040 players when they come into building every day that they 0:19:58.119 --> 0:20:00.359 have no ceiling, and every time he gets between the 0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:02.199 white lines, he's doing it with a purpose and he's 0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:04.600 actually getting better. And we've seen him do a year 0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:07.119 to year. And if you're saying what you're seeing is 0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:09.160 from what you've seen in this offseason, is that he's 0:20:09.200 --> 0:20:11.680 actually took that next step, because what you're putting him 0:20:11.680 --> 0:20:14.320 in that category, just like we're talking about Jamar Chase, 0:20:14.840 --> 0:20:16.320 we're talking about Justin Jefferson. 0:20:17.440 --> 0:20:19.400 Let's see who could, who could? Who's who else? 0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:20.760 Tyreek Hill? 0:20:20.840 --> 0:20:26.920 Okay, I mean, but he's dangerous. He's dangerous at all times. 0:20:27.160 --> 0:20:28.920 But but to say that he's going to be in 0:20:28.960 --> 0:20:29.760 the top three. 0:20:30.200 --> 0:20:34.800 He's already, he's already. I'm saying it's gonna be him 0:20:35.280 --> 0:20:39.960 and whoever else okay, and this is the players line fact. 0:20:40.000 --> 0:20:43.280 So we've all been in places wherever you've been at 0:20:43.359 --> 0:20:49.639 in your careers, We've been around bona fide dogs. They 0:20:49.800 --> 0:20:54.639 walk different, right, they talk different when you When I 0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:57.760 watched Ceedee Lamb come into practice, When I watch him 0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:00.680 on the practice field, it's an are around him that 0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:03.720 he walks out there, and he was like, there ain't 0:21:03.760 --> 0:21:07.399 a mo fo out here that can guard me. I 0:21:07.560 --> 0:21:10.280 told you guys just before when the one loan press 0:21:10.359 --> 0:21:14.199 conference that he did this this this training camp when 0:21:14.240 --> 0:21:16.720 he's at the podium and he set up there and 0:21:16.760 --> 0:21:19.119 he said, listen, if y'all don't think I am who 0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:21.080 I am, y'all gonna see it a little bit. That 0:21:21.320 --> 0:21:25.280 was my That was him telling y'all I'm him. I'm 0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:27.800 like Kevin Durant said, I'm Kevin Durant. His numbers back 0:21:27.840 --> 0:21:30.159 it up to know who I am. And so it's like, 0:21:30.640 --> 0:21:36.440 so I believe that with that, this cowboy offense is 0:21:36.560 --> 0:21:39.080 going to be put on the backs of the passing game. 0:21:40.080 --> 0:21:43.280 I think when they win games, because I just don't 0:21:43.320 --> 0:21:45.280 see how you're going to develop a running and. 0:21:45.800 --> 0:21:48.680 Jesse get out of here with all that you saying 0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:51.560 something that everybody knows. We all know the back is 0:21:51.600 --> 0:21:54.320 going to be put on the passing game. You got 0:21:54.400 --> 0:21:57.320 CD that's gonna be who he is. You got George Pickett, 0:21:57.520 --> 0:22:00.840 we got Dak Prescott that does that. But when a cowboy, like, 0:22:01.160 --> 0:22:03.080 let's stop talking about what's easy, like this is the 0:22:03.119 --> 0:22:05.680 players now the whole reason people come here and so 0:22:05.800 --> 0:22:08.120 they can hear us when we're sitting in that locker room. 0:22:08.160 --> 0:22:11.320 When the media leads up out of there, what's going on? Okay, yeah, 0:22:11.359 --> 0:22:13.520 we said all the great things. We added the fluff and. 0:22:13.560 --> 0:22:13.840 This and that. 0:22:14.200 --> 0:22:17.200 Let's talk about this when they have really been their best. 0:22:17.320 --> 0:22:19.479 It's been off the run game. It's been predicated off 0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:22.280 the run. They always had a big dog back there. 0:22:22.480 --> 0:22:26.680 It was never big dog exactly. Talk about that. 0:22:26.800 --> 0:22:29.080 But so you're at the number show. 0:22:29.080 --> 0:22:31.720 Anytime Dak Sean throwing the ball forty some times a game, 0:22:32.280 --> 0:22:35.479 that ain't gonna benefit the cowboy exactly exactly. 0:22:35.560 --> 0:22:37.480 So you're trying to sit here and say, ceedee, Limb 0:22:37.600 --> 0:22:39.640 is gonna send over here and this and that, Well, 0:22:39.640 --> 0:22:41.320 how is he gonna send me with that? Like he 0:22:41.400 --> 0:22:43.920 has to get more opportunity. We're sitting there talking about 0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:45.720 that like it's easy for us to talk about CD. 0:22:46.000 --> 0:22:48.400 Let's talk about the real stuff. Let's talk about, Hey, 0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:50.480 who's really running. Let's talk about the fact that we 0:22:50.560 --> 0:22:54.280 got shoddy as a run first like a pass like. 0:22:54.359 --> 0:22:57.360 He's not a pass oriented coordinator. He is a run 0:22:57.480 --> 0:23:00.880 first coordinator. They are play action run. It's not like, oh, 0:23:01.119 --> 0:23:03.880 sit back and shotgun, let's get this going. It's like, oh, 0:23:04.320 --> 0:23:06.879 get down here, run, run, bomb, dump it. 0:23:06.920 --> 0:23:09.800 But I think you need a zeke for. 0:23:12.080 --> 0:23:15.040 Unbelievable three down back And I don't for that offense 0:23:15.080 --> 0:23:17.679 to be explosive like all I can if he can 0:23:17.720 --> 0:23:19.040 get if you can hand them, but just to keep 0:23:19.040 --> 0:23:21.520 the defense honest, I think that'll be enough for this 0:23:21.640 --> 0:23:23.640 offense to be productive, especially on our side. 0:23:23.800 --> 0:23:26.240 I think, I think, and I will say this, I 0:23:26.359 --> 0:23:28.320 think it will be enough. But when you think of 0:23:28.400 --> 0:23:30.919 it this way, what I'm seeing from this young running 0:23:30.920 --> 0:23:33.480 back court, I'm not saying there as good, but I 0:23:33.760 --> 0:23:34.800 like what I seen. 0:23:34.720 --> 0:23:37.720 From young Are you talking about Well, I'm. 0:23:37.560 --> 0:23:39.960 Sorry because I'm talking about. 0:23:39.720 --> 0:23:41.840 Because the young young runner backs ain't getting the start. 0:23:42.400 --> 0:23:43.760 It's gonna be. It's gonna. 0:23:45.680 --> 0:23:46.640 You know who's gonna start. 0:23:46.680 --> 0:23:48.680 But at the end of the year, Like we always know, 0:23:48.920 --> 0:23:52.040 there's always one guy and everybody's offensive scheme that becomes 0:23:52.119 --> 0:23:55.320 the guy. They brought them to young guys in there prediction. 0:23:55.560 --> 0:23:57.840 They hoping that one of those guys become the guy 0:23:58.080 --> 0:23:59.800 and these old guys get phased out. 0:24:00.359 --> 0:24:03.320 Phil gonna be here for a while. He's already they 0:24:03.359 --> 0:24:04.000 already put him on. 0:24:04.040 --> 0:24:07.960 I r oh no, if you can get Rico Daddle production, 0:24:09.400 --> 0:24:12.000 this obum is gonna be fine. And I'm talking about 0:24:12.000 --> 0:24:13.760 from all of them together, not just one guy going 0:24:13.800 --> 0:24:15.880 for If you can get Rico Daddle production at all 0:24:15.920 --> 0:24:17.960 three of them guys in the backfield and however you 0:24:18.040 --> 0:24:20.240 want to be it, that'll be fine because these guys 0:24:20.280 --> 0:24:21.800 on the outside gonna eat, is. 0:24:21.800 --> 0:24:22.360 Going to eat. 0:24:22.400 --> 0:24:24.520 He had a down year last year. He is going 0:24:24.640 --> 0:24:25.600 to eat, all right. 0:24:25.680 --> 0:24:27.479 That's gonna be the security blank. He's gonna destroy these 0:24:27.520 --> 0:24:29.840 linebackers over the middle. Now, you gotta pick your poison. 0:24:29.880 --> 0:24:30.960 You're gonna leave your safeties up. 0:24:30.960 --> 0:24:32.760 But that's what that's what I guess, that's what I 0:24:32.840 --> 0:24:34.680 wanted us to get to something like that, make a 0:24:34.760 --> 0:24:37.760 statement like that to where we all know that unsung 0:24:37.840 --> 0:24:39.800 hero where it's like, hey, these guys are gonna do good. 0:24:40.000 --> 0:24:42.080 But if old buddy do what he's talking about. 0:24:43.160 --> 0:24:45.600 Like you said, if you get Rico daddo production, which 0:24:46.280 --> 0:24:48.320 I think you have, I think you can't. 0:24:48.520 --> 0:24:50.720 I think I think you unreachable. 0:24:50.800 --> 0:24:54.320 Yeah, so so you got that last year. 0:24:54.480 --> 0:24:56.440 So right, did new work last yecause that got hurt 0:24:57.840 --> 0:25:00.399 that CD putting up them numbers and Cooper us Man, 0:25:00.440 --> 0:25:03.160 you're talking about the same situation, just with number four 0:25:03.200 --> 0:25:05.240 in there. You said ce d put up them numbers 0:25:05.320 --> 0:25:07.520 last year and you had that running back that you're 0:25:07.520 --> 0:25:09.160 talking about that you want to get all. 0:25:09.119 --> 0:25:11.920 The production out. So what's going to be the difference. 0:25:11.600 --> 0:25:12.159 You didn't have that? 0:25:13.400 --> 0:25:15.720 That that's that is that this is a quarterback league. 0:25:15.880 --> 0:25:16.600 Okay, this is that. 0:25:16.720 --> 0:25:18.240 I mean that's I'm not saying he's. 0:25:18.560 --> 0:25:21.480 Mahomes, but he's gonna do more than what Cooper Rush 0:25:21.600 --> 0:25:22.479 was able to do last year. 0:25:22.680 --> 0:25:23.240 Definitely, Will. 0:25:23.359 --> 0:25:25.760 My concern when it comes to the running game is 0:25:26.080 --> 0:25:29.480 I don't know if I can trust what they have 0:25:29.600 --> 0:25:33.600 on the offensive line. We're talking about a rookie right 0:25:33.640 --> 0:25:37.080 guard who has all he has twenty eight preseason snaps. 0:25:37.560 --> 0:25:40.000 That's it totally, as can you trust Will? 0:25:41.200 --> 0:25:46.119 Who Will mc lay yeah, yes, and and who he's 0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:49.600 being able to select these first rounds when its line. 0:25:49.480 --> 0:25:53.560 Yes, yes, I mean it's like no, no, no, But 0:25:53.840 --> 0:25:56.240 all right, is it day Thomas? Is it Tyler Goton? 0:25:56.760 --> 0:25:59.680 Who are you trusting out there? See that there? That's 0:26:00.080 --> 0:26:02.800 the one dude who I can lay my head down 0:26:03.040 --> 0:26:06.159 on the pillow at night and have zero concern. It 0:26:06.240 --> 0:26:09.440 is my left guard. I got no concern about tox facts. 0:26:09.560 --> 0:26:13.000 I got to know that's that's that's a boy dog 0:26:13.119 --> 0:26:16.560 right there, No concerns. I don't know about the rest 0:26:16.600 --> 0:26:19.720 of them. What still are we getting? Because one year 0:26:19.760 --> 0:26:21.200 we get a good steal, One year we get a 0:26:21.240 --> 0:26:24.280 basket roller coaster, we get a good still who could 0:26:24.320 --> 0:26:26.200 do only pass protection. Next year we get a good 0:26:26.400 --> 0:26:29.320 still only do run protection, run blocking. So what still 0:26:29.359 --> 0:26:31.760 are we getting? This year? We got a rookie right 0:26:31.880 --> 0:26:36.879 next to him the center, cool BB. He's gonna be okay, 0:26:37.880 --> 0:26:38.639 He's gonna be okay. 0:26:38.760 --> 0:26:40.920 He's I look at I look at BB being a 0:26:41.000 --> 0:26:44.240 more polished version of Joe. Joe. 0:26:52.359 --> 0:26:53.160 That's a different monster. 0:26:53.400 --> 0:26:53.760 I love. 0:26:54.160 --> 0:26:56.080 I love Joe and what he was able to bring 0:26:56.200 --> 0:26:58.080 Like people didn't expecting him. They were like, oh, we 0:26:58.160 --> 0:26:59.920 got all these guys in front of him, but he 0:27:00.160 --> 0:27:02.520 knew his assignment. He was gonna dog walk somebody, and 0:27:02.600 --> 0:27:05.480 he was very serviceable. Good started. So when you say 0:27:05.560 --> 0:27:09.119 this center, I'm not. I think he's good, and I 0:27:09.200 --> 0:27:11.600 think that Tyler Smith been next to him makes him 0:27:11.680 --> 0:27:14.919 even better to where it's like you're gonna you. 0:27:14.960 --> 0:27:17.240 Don't worry about you don't have to worry about those two. 0:27:17.560 --> 0:27:20.600 You got to get over there to that other guard 0:27:20.840 --> 0:27:23.680 and that blind side spot to where you're really gonna 0:27:23.680 --> 0:27:26.439 have to worry. So that's when it comes to this offense. 0:27:26.480 --> 0:27:29.119 I'm not worried about receivers. I say all that to 0:27:29.119 --> 0:27:31.400 say I'm not worried about receivers. I'm not worried about 0:27:31.400 --> 0:27:33.200 this running back corp because, like I said, I just 0:27:33.280 --> 0:27:36.480 need Rico o'dondo type of production. Four is gonna do 0:27:36.520 --> 0:27:39.359 what he do if he's healthy. But the X factor 0:27:39.440 --> 0:27:42.080 is that old line I can't have. We all know 0:27:42.200 --> 0:27:44.640 this is the one spot where you can't have one 0:27:44.720 --> 0:27:47.800 good player, or even two good players. You need two 0:27:48.320 --> 0:27:51.399 really good players a decent player. If you're gonna have 0:27:51.600 --> 0:27:55.919 two mediocre subpart other guys and they better be mixed 0:27:55.960 --> 0:27:58.800 out in between. Don't have the right side is really good, 0:27:58.880 --> 0:28:00.800 then the left side is good because guess where we 0:28:00.920 --> 0:28:03.239 know what we're gonna do. We're gonna blitch right all 0:28:03.280 --> 0:28:05.479 the way on that strong side and make you come 0:28:05.480 --> 0:28:07.239 over here to that week's side and then let them 0:28:07.440 --> 0:28:10.200 dogs eat over there. So that's the one thing that 0:28:10.400 --> 0:28:13.480 makes me so nervous. Like you said when we said it, 0:28:13.600 --> 0:28:15.520 you said ten wins. I told you at the beginning, 0:28:15.840 --> 0:28:18.320 I don't see ten wins right now. I said, if 0:28:18.359 --> 0:28:21.400 everybody's healthy and they can get those parts, we could talk. 0:28:21.760 --> 0:28:23.440 I might be a little bit more on your side. 0:28:23.720 --> 0:28:26.320 But with what we've seen, with the injury bug that's 0:28:26.400 --> 0:28:29.840 already been here, the stuff that's already been there, like 0:28:29.960 --> 0:28:33.040 as far as production wise, that makes me so nervous 0:28:33.080 --> 0:28:35.000 to where it's saying, it don't matter if we got 0:28:36.320 --> 0:28:39.640 a generation of talent in seedee lamb toasting everybody off 0:28:39.680 --> 0:28:42.080 the ball. If every time oh, I'm getting hit, oh, 0:28:42.360 --> 0:28:43.960 and then guess what, now we just need to do 0:28:44.000 --> 0:28:46.280 a little dump screen because now you're not getting the. 0:28:46.280 --> 0:28:47.000 Best out of him. 0:28:47.040 --> 0:28:49.680 So he might be at his best, but it doesn't 0:28:49.720 --> 0:28:51.760 matter if we don't start right there in the front, just. 0:28:51.840 --> 0:28:55.240 Telling y'all Take a snapshot or what Joe Burrow was 0:28:55.320 --> 0:28:57.800 in that Cincinnati offense where he should have had it. 0:28:58.000 --> 0:29:00.440 He had MVP type numbers, but they just couldn't get 0:29:00.520 --> 0:29:06.160 enough wins. Take a snapshot of that, Photoshop it, and 0:29:06.240 --> 0:29:09.920 that's what this offense gonna look like this year. It 0:29:10.000 --> 0:29:11.280 may not produce many wins. 0:29:11.600 --> 0:29:13.080 That's big, big praise, but. 0:29:13.240 --> 0:29:16.160 That's gonna be It's gonna be heavy on the passing game. 0:29:16.240 --> 0:29:18.720 It's gonna be heavy on pickens. And I agree with you, 0:29:19.160 --> 0:29:21.480 We're gonna eat. I think he's gonna have a bounce 0:29:21.520 --> 0:29:25.000 back year. He said, sorry, gonna have a bounce back. 0:29:25.400 --> 0:29:28.479 I do, I do gonna eat. I think the passing 0:29:28.560 --> 0:29:32.880 game is where this I've I don't believe in what 0:29:33.120 --> 0:29:35.760 the running game they're putting up Joe Burrow numbers. 0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:38.880 If this offense is putting up Cincinnati numbers from last year, 0:29:39.680 --> 0:29:42.000 you don't think this defense could be serviceable enough? 0:29:42.480 --> 0:29:43.720 Yes, to get the job done. 0:29:43.760 --> 0:29:45.920 I think I think the defense is serving for enough. 0:29:46.040 --> 0:29:49.360 That's what they put up. They put If they put 0:29:49.440 --> 0:29:50.960 up Cincinnati numbers and. 0:29:51.200 --> 0:29:55.760 We're gonna need points a game to win, defense gonna 0:29:55.760 --> 0:29:57.400 give up like that, gonna need thirty points. 0:29:57.240 --> 0:29:57.640 A games. 0:30:01.920 --> 0:30:05.479 That government cheese Like, you can't just like that. Man. 0:30:05.520 --> 0:30:09.080 It's the reason why he made his name, and his 0:30:09.200 --> 0:30:10.680 defense has always been. 0:30:12.440 --> 0:30:16.240 Now he's had the tools on his defenses, and we'll 0:30:16.240 --> 0:30:17.760 see what this these defenses got. 0:30:17.840 --> 0:30:19.120 So we'll definitely gonna have to see. 0:30:19.160 --> 0:30:21.920 I mean, I don't I'm not arguing with you about 0:30:21.920 --> 0:30:25.040 it because like when you have too like those those 0:30:25.080 --> 0:30:26.720 guys are two of my favorite receivers, you know what 0:30:26.760 --> 0:30:29.160 I'm saying, Like, I like, CD grew on me actually, 0:30:29.320 --> 0:30:31.680 Like in the beginning, I was kind of questioning, like 0:30:31.720 --> 0:30:33.280 like is he just cold for real? 0:30:33.640 --> 0:30:35.080 But then numbers don't lie. 0:30:35.360 --> 0:30:37.040 And then the year that he like he, like I said, 0:30:37.120 --> 0:30:40.120 he's progressively gotten better every year, you know what I mean. 0:30:40.480 --> 0:30:43.400 George Pickens, Like outside of everything that was going on 0:30:43.480 --> 0:30:44.840 in Pittsburgh, when the boy came. 0:30:44.720 --> 0:30:46.920 To play, he was bawling, you know what I mean, 0:30:47.080 --> 0:30:48.520 the same thing when he was in Georgia. 0:30:48.560 --> 0:30:50.920 Like I remember that kid from from college, you know, 0:30:51.080 --> 0:30:53.560 watching him and just seeing how he's doing and so 0:30:53.880 --> 0:30:56.560 him getting here now he would be another Well he 0:30:56.720 --> 0:31:00.840 wasn't number one in Pittsburgh, so have that, Like, I 0:31:01.120 --> 0:31:03.440 definitely agree with you. They're gonna go they I think 0:31:03.480 --> 0:31:05.080 them boys are gonna get busy. It's gonna be hard 0:31:05.080 --> 0:31:08.480 to cover.

I want to make sure you need 0:35:31.840 --> 0:35:32.400 some assistance. 0:35:32.719 --> 0:35:46.440 Yeah, you know what, since y'all got all the jokes started, Yeah, start, So. 0:35:46.880 --> 0:35:49.520 Here's what I need. Here's here's what I need. Uh, 0:35:50.160 --> 0:35:53.200 we're gonna get the prediction of the game. We're gonna 0:35:53.239 --> 0:35:55.000 go around the table get the prediction of the game. 0:35:55.520 --> 0:35:58.319 But with your prediction, I need an next factor. Who's 0:35:58.360 --> 0:36:01.400 going to be your X factor for this game? And 0:36:02.320 --> 0:36:07.160 why I'm I'm a you started, I'm a hold, I 0:36:07.239 --> 0:36:08.080 get to go last. 0:36:10.200 --> 0:36:10.480 Last. 0:36:12.560 --> 0:36:15.080 That's our show. 0:36:15.200 --> 0:36:18.040 This is your show. No more sent George, no more, 0:36:18.120 --> 0:36:19.640 this is ours. What you. 0:36:23.120 --> 0:36:28.160 Feel like this reason I'm gonna start with you start 0:36:28.200 --> 0:36:30.400 what you want to score too, or just yeah, you know, 0:36:30.560 --> 0:36:33.040 you know you got to give a score, Okay in 0:36:33.120 --> 0:36:40.600 this game Thursday, I'm going Eagles twenty four, Cowboys twenty one. 0:36:41.719 --> 0:36:44.120 So I got the Eagles getting the the My X 0:36:44.160 --> 0:36:47.200 factor is gonna be divine Tae Smith. I feel like 0:36:48.080 --> 0:36:51.040 Fluse and everybody. You got the owner. Everybody told, yeah, 0:36:51.080 --> 0:36:54.160 stop the running. They're gonna sell out to try to 0:36:54.239 --> 0:36:56.399 contain Saintwa. Not that they're gonna hold him to under 0:36:56.440 --> 0:36:58.040 twenty yards or anything like that, but I don't think 0:36:58.040 --> 0:36:59.520 he's gonna have one of these hundred and fifty yard 0:36:59.560 --> 0:37:01.840 games or any things like that. So I believe the 0:37:02.000 --> 0:37:04.080 X factor is gonna be Davontae Smith. They gonna do 0:37:04.120 --> 0:37:07.200 whatever they can to get aj Brown bottled up, whether 0:37:07.280 --> 0:37:09.600 that's putting digs and somebody over top having a linebacker, 0:37:09.640 --> 0:37:11.680 he's always gonna be covering. I feel like Dvalanntae's gonna 0:37:11.680 --> 0:37:14.319 get the majority of these one on ones. And let's 0:37:14.360 --> 0:37:17.080 just say Digs isn't playing. You're gonna You're gonna be 0:37:17.080 --> 0:37:19.920 out there with you know, Kareem Elam or you know 0:37:20.040 --> 0:37:22.839 Kaylyn Carson or something like that. And I gotta see 0:37:22.880 --> 0:37:24.960 what those guys can do in person before I can 0:37:25.000 --> 0:37:26.959 sit there and say they got a chance against Davontae Smith. 0:37:27.040 --> 0:37:29.400 So for me, I'm gonna say Devonte Smith is the 0:37:29.560 --> 0:37:31.680 X factor. I got him going for over one hundred 0:37:32.360 --> 0:37:35.279 touchdown maybe two, but that's gonna be the deciding factor. 0:37:35.320 --> 0:37:36.879 But it's gonna be a close game. Twenty seven twenty 0:37:36.960 --> 0:37:39.560 or twenty four twenty one Eagles, twenty four to twenty 0:37:39.600 --> 0:37:40.760 one Eagles for Barry. 0:37:40.640 --> 0:37:45.880 Church straight to me, she's okay. 0:37:46.080 --> 0:37:51.239 So in my head when while you were talking, I 0:37:51.320 --> 0:37:57.879 thought I saw thirty four seventeen, yeah, and thirty Eagles. 0:37:57.680 --> 0:37:59.600 All blood bath McGrath. 0:38:02.200 --> 0:38:08.560 A little, I mean, and it's it's just based off 0:38:08.640 --> 0:38:11.880 of off of the lack of what we know right now, 0:38:12.040 --> 0:38:14.279 like you said it did is going and play, you 0:38:14.360 --> 0:38:18.360 know what I mean? I'm in the realm that Saquan 0:38:18.480 --> 0:38:19.840 gonna come out and try to get a crack in 0:38:19.880 --> 0:38:21.800 first game to see you know what I mean. So, 0:38:21.960 --> 0:38:24.160 and I know he's gonna get the opportunity to and 0:38:24.920 --> 0:38:27.279 just like you mentioned, having those two receivers that they 0:38:27.360 --> 0:38:30.160 got out there, like the box gonna have to be 0:38:30.200 --> 0:38:32.520 a little bit light sometimes, you know what I'm saying. 0:38:32.640 --> 0:38:35.080 So with that being said, you know, I'm looking at 0:38:35.920 --> 0:38:38.680 sa Quan probably being the X factor. 0:38:40.160 --> 0:38:41.200 Thirty four seventeen. 0:38:43.080 --> 0:38:48.000 I'll go next, I'll say the last one for you, Trey, 0:38:48.760 --> 0:38:56.200 I go. I'm gonna go twenty eight, twelve Eagles, twelve Eagles. 0:38:56.239 --> 0:39:01.200 And here's my thing. Here's my thing is coming into 0:39:01.280 --> 0:39:04.960 this game. The Cowboys are still trying to figure out 0:39:05.040 --> 0:39:12.480 on so many levels who they actually are, right I think, 0:39:13.400 --> 0:39:16.239 and I've been one who talked about I need to 0:39:16.280 --> 0:39:18.360 see guys play just a little bit more on preseason 0:39:19.080 --> 0:39:23.719 because chemistry is a mother. You need that. You need that. 0:39:23.880 --> 0:39:26.320 That offensive line hasn't had a chance to play together. 0:39:26.719 --> 0:39:29.000 They've been in and out with injuries, all that kind 0:39:29.040 --> 0:39:30.800 of stuff. All of them kind of has some injury 0:39:30.840 --> 0:39:32.560 that they've dealt with a little bit upfront through our 0:39:32.600 --> 0:39:37.719 training camp. When I look outside, do I think George 0:39:37.760 --> 0:39:39.719 Pickers and Dak Prescott will jail? Sure? 0:39:39.800 --> 0:39:40.000 I do. 0:39:40.680 --> 0:39:42.359 But there is something to be said. When you were 0:39:42.440 --> 0:39:46.040 in the fire and I look out there and three 0:39:46.120 --> 0:39:48.480 looks back at me, are we seeing the same thing? 0:39:50.480 --> 0:39:53.319 Are we seeing this now? When I look to eighty eight, 0:39:53.400 --> 0:39:55.719 because we've been in the fire, they sees what I see. 0:39:56.320 --> 0:39:58.560 So I think still building that a little bit with 0:39:58.680 --> 0:40:01.279 them is like being able to trust it and just 0:40:01.440 --> 0:40:05.520 have that with no second thought, just we boom. I 0:40:05.640 --> 0:40:09.399 just there was too many gaps in between everybody all 0:40:09.520 --> 0:40:13.960 being together, you know what I'm saying, and a semi 0:40:14.120 --> 0:40:17.080 new offense, it's the same but different a little bit 0:40:17.160 --> 0:40:19.720 because there will be some sort of wrinkle that Shoty 0:40:19.800 --> 0:40:21.920 puts in on this offense there and then the same 0:40:22.000 --> 0:40:23.719 thing on the defensive end. I know you said it 0:40:23.719 --> 0:40:25.759 was supposed to be a team game, but I know 0:40:25.920 --> 0:40:28.000 this league like you know this, You know you need 0:40:28.080 --> 0:40:33.160 players and when you take away however you feel about 0:40:33.200 --> 0:40:37.200 Michael Parsons, and I've nobody has been more vocal about 0:40:37.239 --> 0:40:39.040 how some of the dumb stuff and that he's been 0:40:39.320 --> 0:40:41.520 than me. They were on my head a year ago 0:40:42.040 --> 0:40:44.360 when I called him selfish and they were on my 0:40:44.719 --> 0:40:47.600 Mama was on my head, brother was on my head. 0:40:47.960 --> 0:40:49.080 The fans is on my head. 0:40:50.640 --> 0:40:51.880 Boy, Look what came. 0:40:53.000 --> 0:40:55.920 I know what I believe in what I saw, But 0:40:56.000 --> 0:40:57.520 I also know why I believe in what I saw 0:40:57.600 --> 0:40:59.200 that I still was a bad joke who went out 0:40:59.200 --> 0:41:03.120 there every single Sunday that football fields, and that matters. 0:41:03.480 --> 0:41:06.920 That that takes osa from a B player to a 0:41:07.040 --> 0:41:10.280 B plus player. It takes a guy like Sam Mulliams 0:41:10.320 --> 0:41:13.160 from a C player to a B player because attention 0:41:13.520 --> 0:41:17.840 is targeted towards a player like Michael Parsons. Lines do 0:41:18.160 --> 0:41:20.920 shift that way, double teams do come that way, so 0:41:21.080 --> 0:41:24.600 I have more opportunities for these one on one opportunities 0:41:24.880 --> 0:41:27.719 throughout the game. You don't have that. Now you're trying 0:41:27.760 --> 0:41:30.000 to play this thing by committee. You've been around here 0:41:30.040 --> 0:41:32.320 long enough to know that committee's nothing always work for 0:41:32.360 --> 0:41:32.880 the Cowboys. 0:41:33.480 --> 0:41:35.520 As much as you say that, you know as well 0:41:35.600 --> 0:41:38.080 as I do. You might have a playmaker like that, 0:41:38.239 --> 0:41:41.440 but not saying he is the problem. But with everything 0:41:41.520 --> 0:41:44.400 that's been coming out there about rumors and egos and 0:41:44.440 --> 0:41:47.719 all that stuff, when you take a bad situation no 0:41:47.800 --> 0:41:50.319 matter how good the player is. Sometimes that gives people 0:41:50.360 --> 0:41:53.120 a pressure fresh are it takes that pressure off of them. 0:41:53.400 --> 0:41:57.240 They don't give no more skill, don't take the pressure. 0:41:57.280 --> 0:41:57.880 Might be you know what. 0:41:59.440 --> 0:42:00.160 Factor right now? 0:42:00.239 --> 0:42:01.360 I need give me. 0:42:02.960 --> 0:42:06.120 Eight twelve Eagles. I need the X fact to me. 0:42:06.320 --> 0:42:08.319 The X factor is gonna be one of the big 0:42:08.400 --> 0:42:12.680 boys up front, Jalen Carter or uh Jordan Davis. That 0:42:12.880 --> 0:42:15.760 that that that front right there is just a monster front. 0:42:15.840 --> 0:42:17.920 And you know, Tyler book and welcome to the National 0:42:17.960 --> 0:42:20.320 Football League. The first game out, you gotta deal with 0:42:20.400 --> 0:42:24.480 those dogs right there for four quarters. So yeah, CD 0:42:24.640 --> 0:42:28.040 and George all on you, big dog, who's gonna guard 0:42:28.160 --> 0:42:31.600 CD and George? Who got right there that they're gonna 0:42:31.600 --> 0:42:34.080 play a lot of his own coverage. They're gonna play 0:42:34.080 --> 0:42:35.319 a lot of his own coverage and try to keep 0:42:35.320 --> 0:42:36.160 everything in front of them. 0:42:36.880 --> 0:42:37.600 Gonna be a lot. 0:42:39.360 --> 0:42:42.280 They got rushed. Yeah, and they ain't got to bring nobody. 0:42:42.360 --> 0:42:46.480 But I wrote, yes, that's e no eye in my name. 0:42:46.520 --> 0:42:47.520 I'm play boy. 0:42:48.120 --> 0:42:52.000 It's all good show this much that is that is 0:42:52.080 --> 0:42:53.480 my name. That is my name. 0:42:53.560 --> 0:42:56.719 Though you know what, I'm sorry I spelled that wrong, 0:42:56.960 --> 0:42:58.799 just like all y'all predictions is wrong. 0:42:59.080 --> 0:42:59.879 I got the boy. 0:43:00.040 --> 0:43:03.640 It's twenty four, twenty seven. Hey, ain't no bias, but 0:43:03.680 --> 0:43:05.920 I'm telling you right now, Hey, say what you want 0:43:06.000 --> 0:43:06.279 to say. 0:43:06.640 --> 0:43:09.839 We all know, we all know, we all know. Yeah, 0:43:09.920 --> 0:43:12.919 nobody thought that was gonna come. I came with that one. Yes, 0:43:13.680 --> 0:43:16.200 and hear me out. We all know coming off that 0:43:16.280 --> 0:43:18.200 Super Bowl rud. What I wish, c B. 0:43:18.280 --> 0:43:19.799 I wish you could pull up the stats of how 0:43:19.880 --> 0:43:22.799 many people actually win coming out that first game. 0:43:23.160 --> 0:43:24.799 They're gonna be on the high horse. 0:43:24.960 --> 0:43:27.200 They're gonna be riding high, and then on top of that, 0:43:27.360 --> 0:43:28.920 you still living off that linelight. 0:43:29.120 --> 0:43:30.000 They lost your boy. 0:43:30.120 --> 0:43:32.600 The reason that you argue with Nui so much talking 0:43:32.600 --> 0:43:35.520 about the offensive coordinator was the guy Kevin Moore. 0:43:35.600 --> 0:43:36.919 Right, they got a new OC. 0:43:37.560 --> 0:43:39.600 What you say, you need time to jail, right, So 0:43:39.719 --> 0:43:41.839 you're getting over there, and I just think it's gonna 0:43:41.840 --> 0:43:44.160 really be Honestly, I just think it's gonna be a 0:43:44.239 --> 0:43:46.239 lot of sloppy football. And I think this is the 0:43:46.719 --> 0:43:49.840 This has the makings to be one of those early 0:43:49.960 --> 0:43:52.279 trap games to where the Cowboys are gonna win in 0:43:52.360 --> 0:43:54.360 a nail bier. And then once they win, what is 0:43:54.400 --> 0:43:56.799 everybody gonna say we just beat the Super Bowl chairs 0:43:56.880 --> 0:43:59.279 this happened, and then they go on the messha where 0:43:59.320 --> 0:44:01.640 it's like, didn't we see that Week one play when 0:44:01.680 --> 0:44:03.760 everybody else started to get better in jail? 0:44:04.120 --> 0:44:05.040 Typically they don't. 0:44:05.120 --> 0:44:07.080 So I think this is gonna be the game where 0:44:07.080 --> 0:44:09.320 they're gonna come out there, I think, And my X 0:44:09.400 --> 0:44:12.120 factor for the game, I'm putting it all on Kenny Clark, 0:44:12.239 --> 0:44:14.920 like what Nui said when I went back and watched 0:44:14.960 --> 0:44:18.440 the interview and just talking like we know how much 0:44:18.520 --> 0:44:19.200 pressure that is. 0:44:19.360 --> 0:44:21.840 But like when you have that dog that Afa. 0:44:21.640 --> 0:44:24.080 Mail, like you said, when you have that certain Gena 0:44:24.120 --> 0:44:26.320 said Kua, like he's walking around here, he's like, I 0:44:26.360 --> 0:44:28.360 don't care. I know Michael did this, and that I 0:44:28.440 --> 0:44:31.120 know that somebody believes in me. This is America's team. 0:44:31.400 --> 0:44:33.520 And on top of that, he's a run stopper, he's 0:44:33.560 --> 0:44:36.160 coming off of injury. He's gonna sit there. Why not 0:44:36.320 --> 0:44:38.719 make my name against the Super Bowl team, Say, Kwan 0:44:39.160 --> 0:44:41.160 Barkley one of the best runners in the game, and 0:44:41.280 --> 0:44:44.160 if he takes over that game and eliminates him in 0:44:44.280 --> 0:44:47.080 the middle right there and then makes Osa look like 0:44:47.200 --> 0:44:49.719 the guy that they paid him to be like I 0:44:49.800 --> 0:44:52.200 think that D line, we're gonna see some stuff. And 0:44:52.440 --> 0:44:54.719 it's the first game. You're not gonna see all the 0:44:54.920 --> 0:44:57.480 glitz and glamours. Like if you do, it's gonna be rusty. 0:44:57.680 --> 0:45:00.200 So I think it's gonna be a nail biterer. Like said, 0:45:00.200 --> 0:45:02.600 we're going with the boys my opinion, Yes, sir, I'm 0:45:02.680 --> 0:45:05.560 riding solo one deep as my boys zero down at 0:45:05.719 --> 0:45:07.840 H Town say one. 0:45:08.200 --> 0:45:15.000 D I'm confused, man, you confuse Last week it was yeah, 0:45:15.360 --> 0:45:20.160 everything you gotta throw you got last week. 0:45:20.640 --> 0:45:26.360 On your points. Last week, Hey. 0:45:25.239 --> 0:45:27.680 Man, I bluff you man what he saying? Magic say? 0:45:27.719 --> 0:45:27.960 He said? 0:45:28.000 --> 0:45:29.480 He said, you come out there, you're fake them like 0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:35.120 that over the shoulder, bro, like in all seriousness, Like 0:45:35.160 --> 0:45:39.040 I said, I it's just gonna come down to D line. Bro, 0:45:39.200 --> 0:45:41.000 I'm gonna leave it at that. I do think, like 0:45:41.080 --> 0:45:44.560 I said, Clint, gonna have them boys hunting over there. 0:45:45.280 --> 0:45:48.279 But that D line, man, it's different, you. 0:45:48.320 --> 0:45:50.360 Know what, Like I understand, I hear you say with 0:45:50.440 --> 0:45:52.600 the letdown, you know what I mean? And uh and 0:45:52.680 --> 0:45:54.840 and and it happens a lot, you know. But I 0:45:54.960 --> 0:45:56.640 think that it's a new it's a new day, it's 0:45:56.640 --> 0:46:00.279 a new time. And one of the things is that 0:46:00.680 --> 0:46:04.239 I like about Jalen Hurts. It is the fact that 0:46:04.360 --> 0:46:07.160 he is he seems like he's he's so purposeful an 0:46:07.200 --> 0:46:09.279 intent for with everything that he's doing as a leader. 0:46:09.800 --> 0:46:12.839 And that being said, I don't I think that they 0:46:12.920 --> 0:46:15.239 got they got the right type of focus, you know 0:46:15.280 --> 0:46:17.239 what I mean coming into this year, and I think 0:46:17.239 --> 0:46:19.080 it's gonna it's gonna be it's gonna be a hard game. 0:46:19.160 --> 0:46:21.560 But when is the Eagles ever just started out hot, 0:46:21.719 --> 0:46:23.640 like nobody didn't say at the beginning of the year, 0:46:23.960 --> 0:46:26.719 Eagles super Bowl and this, and that the Eagles progressively 0:46:26.840 --> 0:46:29.160 got better as the season went on, Like at the 0:46:29.239 --> 0:46:31.400 beginning of the last year, you were talking about guys 0:46:31.480 --> 0:46:32.960 reading books on the sideline. 0:46:33.000 --> 0:46:35.360 They're not doing this and doing that, Like, I don't. 0:46:35.239 --> 0:46:37.960 That was doing their success. He was bringing them books out. 0:46:38.080 --> 0:46:43.440 Darfore everybody start talking about what the potential Even when 0:46:43.960 --> 0:46:46.040 was there, people were still complaining, like they didn't start 0:46:46.080 --> 0:46:47.920 out at the beginning of the year like oh, this 0:46:48.120 --> 0:46:49.759 is it, like this is the super Bowl? Like it 0:46:49.840 --> 0:46:52.759 was soppy play that got better. They're not one of 0:46:52.840 --> 0:46:54.880 those teams that just come out there like that, like 0:46:54.960 --> 0:46:55.720 they hot grits. 0:46:55.800 --> 0:46:56.359 It's just ready. 0:46:56.520 --> 0:46:58.799 This ain't instant rawman, like you ain't going out there 0:46:58.800 --> 0:47:01.160 in two minutes. And they ready like let them boys 0:47:01.280 --> 0:47:01.759 yell man. 0:47:02.440 --> 0:47:03.600 Well we'll see. 0:47:03.719 --> 0:47:07.440 I like, I like doing the difference problem for them possible. 0:47:07.480 --> 0:47:09.480 There you go myself one deep. 0:47:09.560 --> 0:47:11.400 Sometimes you gotta be one deep and standing on that. 0:47:11.520 --> 0:47:13.319 And I'm still gonna get nickings sounds at the end 0:47:13.320 --> 0:47:13.680 of the day. 0:47:16.520 --> 0:47:27.960 Why you think that's what Jesse Holly, this is the 0:47:28.040 --> 0:47:33.560 players like Friday makes sense. But we'll see if if 0:47:33.719 --> 0:47:36.120 if solo Man was right about that. The players loud 0:47:36.160 --> 0:47:36.440 me out. 0:47:37.120 --> 0:47:39.799 This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 0:47:40.040 --> 0:47:42.080 and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
