A little later in the show, 14 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: we'll have our normal I know, I think I have 15 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: no idea. Later in the show as well, and at 16 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 1: some point in this show, Nick's gonna tell us who's 17 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: gonna win. Amber's gonna tell us a score, and Dave 18 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: will give us some kind of great insight as to 19 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: what's going to happen on Sunday. How's everybody doing today? Great, okay, great, 20 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: lovely awesome. All right, let's jump right in. We gotta 21 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: start with injuries. There are three guys in particular we 22 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 1: need to talk about, Trayvon Diggs, Tyrn Smith, and Marcus 23 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: Larnce Nick. Why don't you start us off? What are 24 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: we hearing at this point about Treyvon Diggs. Well, he 25 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: practiced yesterday, so that's a good thing. And I think 26 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: Dave said it best. He has to play, So he's 27 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: gonna play no matter what. I don't know if he 28 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: can lift his arm over over his head, but he's 29 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: gonna have to play now. I just again, I think 30 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: it was kind of more of a precautionary thing. That's 31 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: my guess. You know, when you don't practice on Wednesday, 32 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: but you come back Thursday, you just need a little 33 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: bit of rest. You know, these guys are are not 34 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: used to it. You can play at Alabama all you 35 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: want to. That's one of the you know, the premier 36 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: you know programs in the country. But it's still it's 37 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: a big jump to go to the NFL. And I 38 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 1: think that these rookies still have to learn how to 39 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: kind of get their bodies ready for each game. And 40 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: and maybe that that's all it is. But I think 41 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: he's gonna play in this game. What are we hearing 42 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: about de Marcus Lawrence, let Dave Takedown. He's progressing nicely. Um, 43 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: which it's a weird still still adjusting to this new 44 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: schedule because like for years, we say if he's practicing Friday, 45 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: he's probably gonna play. Well, Friday is not a practice 46 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: day anymore, so Amber typing something over there, jeez, hate, 47 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: I know it's the worst. Absolutely, Um, So Saturday is 48 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: the practice day, so we'll see what happens. But I 49 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: lean toward thinking to Marcus Lawrence is going to be 50 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: available all right. And uh and I obviously Tyron Smith 51 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: to me is the biggest one at this point that 52 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: you're trying to keep an eye on. Uh, what are 53 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: we hearing about about Tying? I'm trying to read through 54 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: Jerry's answers here of what he said on the radio 55 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: this morning. Um, it sounds like you said nothing like 56 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: at all, like just a bunch of stuff that you know, 57 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: we'll see how things go. But uh, I don't, I 58 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: don't know. I just don't get the feeling he's gonna 59 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: play this week. I could be wrong on that, but 60 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: neither do. I just know I don't think he's playing. 61 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: And if you if you don't come back and beat 62 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: the Falcons, I mean, I just think I'm not saying 63 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: he's plays because he's still the injuries the most important 64 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: thing and getting the body, you know, getting the player 65 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: ready to go. But I just feel like there's a 66 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: there's a less sense of urgency to rush these guys 67 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: back because the tackles did a decent job and they 68 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: got over five hundred yards and so you know, they 69 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: could probably you know, do it again if they needed to. 70 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: I just don't think there's they're gonna rush him back. Amber. 71 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: How are you feeling about Tying potentially not playing? Well? 72 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: This is this was gonna be part of my I 73 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: know I was gonna say. I know that the Cowboys 74 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: are able to win games without their starting two tackles, 75 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: so we saw it last week. At least, I feel 76 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: obviously you're never gonna feel great without having tiring or 77 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: lyell Callings out there playing with you. But at the 78 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: same time, like we spoke earlier this week, I do 79 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: feel a lot better about the tackles that we currently 80 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: have and hope that obviously their game is not gonna 81 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: be perfect. They're gonna make mistakes, but at least they 82 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: can do enough to help you still get a win. 83 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: You know, I think I'm more concerned about this than 84 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: you guys seem to be. And I know the tackles 85 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: did okay last week. I still point back to early 86 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: in the game when Dion Jones was blitzing and they 87 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: just weren't picking things up. And you talk about a 88 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: team that can't get pressure in Seattle unless they blitzed 89 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: their monster Jamal Adams, and by the way, they like 90 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: to do it. And so I look at that and 91 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, if he's moving all over this defensive front 92 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys are having to adjust on the fly 93 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: to who's blocking home, that just has a lot of 94 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: bad things written all over for me. And I think 95 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: that's the one thing that if you're looking at the 96 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: matchup Cowboys offense from seat versus Seattle defense, that's the 97 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: one area where I think they really could make a difference. 98 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: Like I don't think they're gonna get a normal pass 99 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: rush off their their front four. I don't think their 100 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: secondary can hold up against these three wide receivers at 101 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: Cowboys half. I do think that they can equalize that 102 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: some using Jamal Adams to blitz, and if you don't 103 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 1: have the experience, I think that can be a problem. 104 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: What do you guys think about that analysis? Go ahead? 105 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,359 Speaker 1: Was it so Dave? Was it Bucky that? Was it 106 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: Bucky that said good quarterbacks back the defense to blitz? 107 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: Or was it Nick? That was Nick? I mean I 108 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: said that because Yeah, Parcels would always parcel Yeah, yeah, yeah, 109 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 1: Well I agree with Bill Parcels. He's a Hall of Famer, 110 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: So um yeah, bring your bring your best dB, Like, 111 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 1: get your best dB out of the second one. I'll 112 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: take that all day. And I look at Jamal Adams. 113 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: If Jamal Adams has two sacks, that's fine, Like da 114 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: Will Dack will get his and like, I mean, yeah, 115 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: it is problematic, but it ain't like that on its 116 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 1: own is not enough to swing this in my opinion, Like, 117 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: if that's the only thing the Seahawks defense has going 118 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: for him, I'll take that all day. Man. I wish 119 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: this guy was on the Cowboys team, you know, like 120 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: when there was some talk about it, that would have 121 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 1: been awesome. Uh, there's no doubt about it. And I 122 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: know Dave, he's an LSU guy. And he's from here 123 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: in Dallas area. But I'm not buying the whole I 124 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: got people in Dallas that tell me that that that 125 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: I'm not good and all that. If you need all 126 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: that stuff for he said, extra motivation, how about the 127 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: fact that you get sixteen of these games and you're 128 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 1: making millions of dollars and they gave three first round 129 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: picks or for whatever for you, Like that should be 130 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: good enough. Don't try to make up some crap that 131 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: somebody here said that you were not good of who. Yeah, 132 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: that was interesting to me because that the quote I 133 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: heard was specific to him not being good in coverage, 134 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: and quite frankly, I don't think that's Dallas people saying 135 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: I think that's people around the country saying that. I 136 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: think there are a lot of people who analyze football 137 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: that say, if you want to have a knock on 138 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: Jamal Adams, it is a fact that he's not a 139 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: great cover guy. But let's also be very clear, in 140 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: my personal opinion, he is one of He's a top 141 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: five defensive player in the NFL because of the difference 142 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: that he makes. And that's the part, like that's far, 143 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: that's enough, Like you don't have to be a great 144 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: cover guy. If you can do that, if you can 145 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: make plays like a Troy Polamalu where you're just all 146 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: over the place and offenses have a hard time accounting 147 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: for you, that's more than enough. So I don't think 148 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: anybody is saying this guy can't play football, and this 149 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: guy's not a great football player. I think if I 150 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: think a lot of people are saying, if there's one 151 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: thing you're gonna ding him for, it would be his 152 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: ability to cover. Yeah, all right, let's go ahead and 153 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: move on. Let's get into some of our game preview here. 154 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: I have a set of questions here that I'm going 155 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: to throw out to you guys, and we'll go around 156 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: and you guys can each answer them. The first question is, 157 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: if Dallas does one thing better in week three than 158 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: it did in week two, what would have the biggest 159 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: impact and how likely is that to happen. Let's start 160 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: first with you Amber lay up. If Dallas does one 161 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: thing better in week three then week two, I would 162 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: say just defense. I'm hoping that the defense is able 163 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 1: to put a little bit of their own game in 164 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: there and be able to help Dallas offense, because this 165 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: is gonna be a really tough match. It's gonna be 166 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 1: really hard to keep up with Russell Wilson. So I'm 167 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: hoping that Dallas is able to play defense better this week, 168 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: and hoping that whatever deal is going on between the 169 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: players and the coaching as far as simplify in the 170 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 1: defense or some of the plays or things like that, 171 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: hopefully they're they're able to figure it out this week 172 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: and maybe cater better to the abilities of their defense players. 173 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: So I would say that I'm going to push you 174 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: a little bit there, and I want you to narrow 175 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: that down a little bit for me. What part of 176 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: the defense particularly do you think has to have a 177 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: better week. I mean the pass rush. It's and it's 178 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: hard to say that because you talk about Russell Wilson 179 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: and you know he can get rid of the ball 180 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: really really fast. But you need to absolutely get help 181 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: from the pass rush because we keep talking about the 182 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: secondary and all the issues that they've continuously been having there. 183 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: Now with the losses that they had at corner, even 184 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: though Trevn dis looks like he's going to be able 185 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: to play, you still need to be able to get 186 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: help from from the pass rush and just create a 187 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: little bit of pressure, just a little bit, even make 188 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: him throw the pass away or something, just a tiny 189 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: little bit to throw Russell Wilson off his game. I 190 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: think it's gonna help them a lot, but it's gonna 191 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: be hard. But the defense just week four, they need 192 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: to wait. What week are we on? Three? Three? Three? 193 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: Week three? Weak? Three? Thing? Yeah? Okay, week three they 194 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: need to step it up. They played two games and 195 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: they need to step it up in this game. I 196 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: think that would have been already the amount of time 197 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: they would have played in a preseason game. So let's 198 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: say they got their preseason games out of the way, 199 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: this is the week where they need to step it 200 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 1: up now. On a scale of one to five, with 201 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,559 Speaker 1: five being most likely and one being least likely, how 202 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: likely are or how likely is it that we see 203 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: this pass rush be better significantly better than it was 204 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: in week two? Ask him? How likely are you asking me? Okay? Um? 205 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: I just cannot see them, honestly keep playing the way 206 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: that they have. And when you talk about competitive guys, 207 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,079 Speaker 1: I see these guys at the defensive line being one 208 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: of the most competitive guys that the Cowboys have on defense. 209 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: And you talk about DeMarcus Lawrence, and we know that 210 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: there's a lot of questions about him, but I know 211 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: there's a lot of fire in him and he can 212 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: even if he depending on how what he does in 213 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 1: the game, if he's able to play or not or 214 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 1: whatever with the whole knee issue. I think that these 215 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: guys are upset enough to where they will be coming 216 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,839 Speaker 1: out in this game and hopefully playing better than they 217 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: did in the previous two games. All right, Nick, you're up, 218 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 1: tell us what they are, what you think they would 219 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: be biggest, the biggest impact they could have by doing 220 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: something better this week than they did last week. Sorry, 221 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: Dave taking it turnovers? I mean I thought I thought 222 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: that was the easy answer. I mean, turnovers as soon 223 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: as Amber didn't say you jumped over right, Yeah, you 224 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: can't turn the ball over for Thank you for being 225 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: more creative than that. Amber. Well, I mean, I just 226 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: that they're they're three touchdowns better than the Falcons. I mean, 227 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: they kicked the Falcons ass like Seattle does. If they 228 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: don't turn the ball over, everybody can see that they're 229 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: way better than that. So just don't turn the ball over. 230 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: Don't give extra possessions to Russell Wilson, And I think 231 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 1: My answer is A four that no, my answers a five. 232 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: That won't happen. They're not going to turn out at 233 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 1: that rate. They're not gonna have five turnovers with two 234 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: fourth down failed punts and three turnovers. They're not having that, 235 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: all right, Dave. That's why, like that that is so unusual, 236 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 1: you know, from what we saw, that's so unusual for 237 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: them to do. So that's why I am not expecting 238 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: that to happen this week. That's unusual for most teams. 239 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: Like that's not even a cowboy like, that's just abnormal 240 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: that a team has three turnovers and then two turnovers 241 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: undowns Like that's a that's that's just not normal in 242 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 1: an NFL, now, Dave. I mean, so we addressed the 243 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 1: pass rush, and we addressed that they should probably hold 244 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: on to the ball, But you got left. If those 245 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: two things, if those two things get significantly better, I 246 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: really like their chances to win this game if I 247 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: had to think of something else turnovers, but not necessarily 248 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,839 Speaker 1: because they didn't. They didn't turn it over against the 249 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: LA and they still didn't start fast enough. So I 250 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: think the best recipe for success for this team is 251 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: going to be to start faster start Hotter have seven 252 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 1: or ten or fourteen points on the board by the 253 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 1: end of the first quarter. That hasn't really been the 254 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: case through two games so far. So it doesn't mean 255 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: you have to have the perfect drive on the opening possession, 256 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: but get into a groove a little bit faster than 257 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: they have been. I think that's going to be key 258 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 1: against a quarterback as good as Russell Wilson. Yeah, I 259 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 1: actually agree with you on that day, because I think 260 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: if they can get an early lead, it does allow 261 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: them in the second half possibly to be able to 262 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,839 Speaker 1: keep the ball out of Russell's hands by running the 263 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: ball a little bit more. I don't think you can 264 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: do that if the game's tied, or if the Cowboys 265 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: are behind against an offense like what we see in Seattle. 266 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,559 Speaker 1: So I think their best chance to be able to 267 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: do that's going to be about getting us into a 268 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: situation where they have a lead. We're gonna take our 269 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: first break and we come back.

I got more 316 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: questions for these guys that get you ready for Cowboys 317 00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: versus Seahawks. The next question, what is more important for 318 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: Dallas to get a win? And we're talking about the 319 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: offense the Cowboys offense, ball control or up tempo? We 320 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: saw last week when they went to up tempo they 321 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: were moving the ball really well. It also has a 322 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 1: way of kind of taking away some of the advantage 323 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 1: at the defense have and being able to substitute and 324 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: even be able to being able to do certain things 325 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: with their defense. What's more important this game? Controlling the ball, 326 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 1: keeping Russ off the field, or going up tempo where 327 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: your offense may be better. Let's start first with you, Dave. 328 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: Ball control is how you hide a week offense. Like 329 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: that's what ball control is for. No, get up tempo, 330 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: score some points, let's have some fun. I think the 331 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: key to winning is gonna be red zone in my opinion, 332 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 1: Like you gotta cash in. No kicking, no failed fourth 333 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: down conversions, YadA, YadA YadA. Score touchdowns because you're gonna 334 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: need them. The Seahawks, I feel like, unless somebody gets hurt, 335 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: I think they're a lock to score thirty one points 336 00:17:56,359 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 1: or more. So I'm saying score touch downs, up tempo, 337 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: whatever helps your offense succeed. Ball control is for when 338 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: you have a rookie quarterback or a bad quarterback, and 339 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys don't have either of those things. All right, Nick, Yeah, 340 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 1: I thought when you were asking the question, you were 341 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: saying like like hang on to the football type thing, 342 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: like like trying to don't turn it over. Now I'm 343 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 1: thinking I'm thinking more slowly gaining down and do the 344 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: things you need to do to keep Russell off the field. 345 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: Is that your best offense to keep him off the field? 346 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 1: Is that your best way to win? Or do you 347 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 1: go up tempo and just go hey, if we're getting 348 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: to track me, we get to track me now. I 349 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: he can come back if they're down. But I still 350 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: make some one dimensional. I mean, if you if you 351 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 1: have a lead and you're scoring points, they're gonna get 352 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: away from what they want to do and they want 353 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: to run the ball some with Carson. It's not like 354 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: they just run it, you know, they let Russell do 355 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,120 Speaker 1: whatever he wants. But no, I think the day's right. 356 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: I think you you you got to score points here. 357 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: You know what's gonna be. You know, it's like racing 358 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: Nusain Bolt. I mean, you know he's fast, so you 359 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 1: better you better run. I mean, you know what he is, 360 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: all right, amber ball, controller, up tempo. I'm gonna pick both, 361 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 1: And don't be trying to challenge me on this one. 362 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,239 Speaker 1: I don't want to think further. But I'm picking a 363 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: combination of both. The Cowboys need to do both, depending 364 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: on where the game is at. I think they start 365 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: off the game. They start off the game up tempo, 366 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: just going out and trying to score. And obviously, depending 367 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: where you're at in the second half of the game, 368 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: if you're up, I would expect them to try to 369 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: kill time by controlling the ball and keeping the ball 370 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 1: longer on the offense. But a combination of both. And 371 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: let me say this, I actually really really liked the 372 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: no huddle thing that they did last week. I liked 373 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: that it kept the momentum going and it seemed like 374 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 1: it was really helpful to their game last week, So 375 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 1: I hope to see some of that. I don't really 376 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:01,959 Speaker 1: know the disadvantages or and it just uh in comparison 377 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: to like what helps them out them out the most. 378 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: But I liked what I saw last week in regards 379 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: to having no hotel going for it, Let's just keep playing. 380 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,959 Speaker 1: It sounds like you're saying up tempo is the answer, 381 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 1: because if you're if you're successful in up tempo and 382 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: you can score a lot of points, then you would 383 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 1: maybe consider ball control. But it first has to start 384 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: with him being up tempo and being able to score 385 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 1: a lot, right, is that what you're saying, I suppose 386 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: see if you wanna, Well, I'm just trying to figure 387 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: out what's more important. What's more important, I guess is 388 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 1: what I was trying to get because I know you're right, 389 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 1: there's no there's nothing that's going to be absolute in 390 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: this game. Like there's there's You're going to see a 391 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: lot of different kinds of things. He can even go 392 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: to our next question I'm gonna ask, but but I'm 393 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: trying to figre out what's more important. Well, but you know, 394 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: if you listen to what Bucky said, though, He basically 395 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: said both. Yeah, he said, you know, move get up 396 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: to the line of scrimmage quickly. It's that hurry up 397 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: to wait, you know, you hurry up, you hurry up. 398 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: You can't substitute. If you do try to subtude, we're 399 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: gonna snap it. But I'm still gonna, you know, slow 400 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 1: this thing down and just still find take time. So 401 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: you know, I think I think you know. Bucky kind 402 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: of said both as well. I mean, you got to 403 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: score points, without a doubt. You gotta score and do 404 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: whatever you have to to score. But but also you 405 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: gotta remember the zekes your guy, you know, and if 406 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: you can run the ball with him, that's the maybe 407 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: the best way to keep the ball in your hands. Okay, 408 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: I've got to preface this next question by saying, I 409 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 1: understand Amber that this is gonna be both. They're gonna 410 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: do both. But my question for you guys, Derek, I 411 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: know I know where you're going. I know you I 412 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: know you're going. I know what I picked two games, 413 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: two scores last week. I know. The thing is, you 414 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: still don't know. You don't really know what um Seattle's 415 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: offense is really gonna be doing. Like you don't know 416 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: how the game is gonna go. So at the same time, 417 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: I wonder, okay, do you need to give some help 418 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: to the defense, to your own defense as far as 419 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 1: like how much time are you allowing them to be 420 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: on the field. You know they haven't necessarily been playing well, 421 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: so there's a lot that goes into account. But yes, 422 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: I guess kick up tempo, score some games and all that, 423 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: But I think you just need to create a really 424 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 1: the right balance for the whole for both, got it. 425 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: So that being said, which is more important on the 426 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball, Blitzing Russell Wilson or containing 427 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson? Do you want to keep him in the 428 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: pocket and make him throw from there or do you 429 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: want to go get him and risk the fact that 430 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: he's going to get out and be able to throw 431 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 1: on the run. Let's start first with you, amper, Okay, blitzen. 432 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:40,479 Speaker 1: I think blitz in because I realistically I find it 433 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,360 Speaker 1: very hard to contain Russell Wilson. So if you're gonna 434 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: invest more energy towards one of the other, I think 435 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 1: that you might have a little more success in blitzing. 436 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: All right, Nick, I agree with that. I mean you 437 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: can't obviously do what every play, but I do think that, 438 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: you know, I'd rather get him, know, get the ball 439 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 1: out quicker. And also these cornerbacks are you know, they're 440 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 1: all they're all banged up, and you know the ones 441 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: that that aren't or you know, I mean out of 442 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: the league all off season and Randon carr and out 443 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: of the league for a little while, and Daryl Whirley 444 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: until they got signed in Layton free agency, and Trayvon 445 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: Diggs was out of the league because he was in college, 446 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: you know, so like, you know, these guys were not 447 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 1: like necessarily you know, you know, Staples and an NFL 448 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: roster and then now they you know, they're gonna be 449 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 1: the guys that cover. So I would I would say, blitz, 450 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 1: get the ball out of his hands, quicker. All right, Dave, 451 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: how often under the last regime did we talk about 452 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 1: keep him in the well, you know, keep him inside 453 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 1: the pocket, contain him. How often did that like really work? 454 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: It feels like it never really did. Which my my 455 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: real answer to the question is doesn't matter, because I 456 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: think Russell Wilson's going to have success no matter what. 457 00:23:55,960 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: But if if faced with these two voices, I'd rather 458 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: pressure him because like he'll break a few of them. 459 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: But if you can blow up the play, I'm thinking 460 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: about Aaron Rodgers. The most successful game the Cowboys ever 461 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: played against Aaron Rodgers was when David Irving just destroyed 462 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 1: the line in half the time. You know, he had 463 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 1: three sacks in a fumble recovery, got right in his 464 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: face right away. That's obviously not blitzing. But the quicker 465 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: you can break up, the quicker you can collapse the play, 466 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: the better off you are. And he'll burn you a 467 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: few times too. But if you just try to contain 468 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: them and let him hang around back there, I think 469 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: that's that's gonna be ugly too, So I'd rather I'd 470 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: rather risk it for the biscuit. I guess yeah. I 471 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: think contain only works when you got great cornerbacks and 472 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 1: great safeties that can cover for longer than two seconds. Right. 473 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: If you don't have that, then you better be getting 474 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: pressure on the quarterback and force them into making throws 475 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 1: quick and early. And I know, I look at this 476 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: game and I'm saying, if Russ ends up having you know, 477 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 1: if he rushes the ball for fifty sixty, maybe even 478 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: seventy yards and they don't have as productive a passing day. 479 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: I think that's okay. I'll take that. I'll take that 480 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 1: as opposed to him sitting back there and picking the 481 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: Cowboys apart because they're not really sending any pressure at him, 482 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: and you're just relying on the front floor to get 483 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 1: there and they're not able to get there consistently, and 484 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: then he's just hitting DK metcalf down the field wide 485 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 1: open or lock it, lock it down the field wide open. 486 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: I think that's a much harder I think that's gonna 487 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,640 Speaker 1: be a much harder game for the Cowboys to win. 488 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: So I think you actually have to send some pressure 489 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 1: at him, send some different exotic looks at him, maybe 490 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: blitz of safety, maybe blitz a corner, do some different things, 491 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: so hopefully you can get some some sacks in some 492 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: situations where you can catch him off guard. Now he's 493 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: a veteran, he's seen everything, but hopefully you can catch 494 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: him off guard a few times and make make some 495 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: game changing type plays. All right, because we're gonna do 496 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 1: We got this final question to have for you in 497 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: the game preview. It is if the Cowboys win, the 498 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: primary reason will be blank Dave, we're gonna start with you, 499 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 1: you know my answer, or come on, it's gonna be 500 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: because of Dak Prescott obviously, And I will say if 501 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys win, I think they're most likely strategy for 502 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 1: winning will involve a healthy dose of zeke in the 503 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 1: second half if they have a lead, or our trading 504 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: leads or whatever. But it's on the quarterback man, Like 505 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: I said, I mean, I think the Seahawks are damn 506 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: near a lock to score thirty one points. So you 507 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 1: need four touch you need four or five touchdowns to 508 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: win this game, maybe six, And that's gonna be on 509 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: your QB. And he's off to a really great start. Um. 510 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,199 Speaker 1: I know they didn't win the first game, but I 511 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,719 Speaker 1: still thought he played really well. So this is this 512 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: is a big litmus test for Dak if he can, 513 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: if he can outpaced Russell Wilson, I think it's it's 514 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 1: not all Vertch on him, all right, Nick, I like 515 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 1: the interior line for the Cowboys. I think Connor Williams, 516 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: Zack Martin, and Joe Looney. You said it that last 517 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 1: week earlier this week that Joe Looney thinks is a 518 00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: big test for him. I think, you know, that's what 519 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: those blitzer are going to be coming. Obviously, usually they 520 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: come from there. And I think that running the ball 521 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: with Zeke and keeping that Yes, the tackles are gonna 522 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: you know, they're gonna be struggling at times, just because 523 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 1: it's hard to block out there, especially. I've only started 524 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: two games each over there, but I just think if 525 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 1: they if the Cowboys are gonna move the ball, give 526 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: Dak enough time, it's gonna because of that offensive line 527 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 1: up front. I think those guys that's a really big key. 528 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: And if they do that, then I think Dave's right it. 529 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 1: Dack will make this place and throw the ball around 530 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: and they'll have some fun pitch and catch and all that. 531 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 1: But it's gonna start right there at the front of 532 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: that offensive line. And er if the Cowboys win, the 533 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: primary reason will be blank. I think, um it will 534 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 1: be because they had a successful passing game. I even 535 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 1: though I like having Zeke run the ball, at the 536 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: same time, I wonder if he'll be used more for 537 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 1: blocking or helping out a little more in the blocking 538 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: game because of the guys that they currently have on 539 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: their deep fans out there in Seattle. So I can 540 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: see this game be relying a lot more on the 541 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: passing game, and after the game that Dad had last week, 542 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: I expect it to be that way. So if they've win, 543 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: it's because it worked out for Dack and his arm 544 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: and the receivers were catching balls. All right, here's's gonna do. 545 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,360 Speaker 1: We're gonna take a final break when we come back. 546 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna get into a little I know, I think 547 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: I have no idea. We'll also hopefully get some fan 548 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,239 Speaker 1: questions from you guys. Amber has some questions lined up there, 549 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: and then we'll give you our predictions for the game 550 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: Cowboys versus Seahawks that when we come right back.

We're gonna do a 594 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: little bit. I know, I think I have no idea 595 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: what we do in this segment is we're gonna go 596 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: around the room. Everybody's gonna give there, I know, just there. 597 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: I know. Then we'll go around the room and everybody 598 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: will give there. I think, and then everyone will give 599 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: there I have no idea, all right, So here's what 600 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: I know, and then we'll move around the room. I 601 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: know Russell Wilson will be a problem for the Dallas 602 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense, and I know Jamal Adams will be a 603 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: problem for the Cowboys offense. Wow, Nick, you're up next. 604 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 1: What do you know? So Rest is gonna be good 605 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: and Joel Adams is gonna be good. They're both gonna 606 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: be a problem. They don't you enough? Hey? Hold on, Nick, 607 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, Derek, I'm gonna challenge you. Sure 608 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: those are obvious points. Those are obvious points. So please 609 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: tell me exactly how you think Russell Wilson and Jamal 610 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: Adams how that's gonna faith and disrupt the game for 611 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I think Jamali, I think Jamal Adam is 612 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: gonna be a problem blitzing. I think Cowboys will have 613 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: no answer for him because he'll be all over the 614 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: field and they will not adapt well to that. And 615 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: I think Russell Wilson will get out of the pocket 616 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: quite a bit. And I think when he gets out 617 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: of the pocket, he will kill them with his legs 618 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 1: as well as kid killed them with passes. Downfield. So 619 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: both of those players will be big problems for the 620 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense and defense. And by the way, when I 621 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: say I know, it needs to be something that you know, 622 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: not you think not. You have a pretty good inclination 623 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: on something that you know. All right, Amber, you're up next, Okay, 624 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 1: it's next turn, all right. I know the Cowboys are 625 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: catching a major break with no fans being there. You know, 626 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: when you look at the differences, and the Cowboys have 627 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: played Seattle a lot, and it's tough to go up 628 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: there and win, there's no doubt about it. But they've 629 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: had some success here when when they've played, even on 630 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: games when Seattle was way better than the Cowboys, like 631 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen, they hung in there. And so I think 632 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 1: now you're talking about almost a neutral site. Really, I 633 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: think the Cowboys are catching a major break because when 634 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 1: you think about at Seattle, it's not going to be 635 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: what it always is. And I think that that's a big, 636 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: big break for the Cowboys. All right, I said it 637 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: earlier the whole like, I know that the Cowboys are 638 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: able to win games now that I saw last week 639 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 1: with others starting two tackles, all right, Dave Pastic point. 640 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: I know which. Speaking of which, even though they're not available, 641 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 1: I know the Cowboys have the better roster in this game. 642 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: You know, that goes back to the classic debate that 643 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: we've had a million times over how talented they are. 644 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 1: I think if you put them on paper, you take 645 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: the Cowboys roster ten times out of ten. But the 646 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: Seahawks have the better quarterback. The Seahawks have the best 647 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: player in this game. And that's really the story of 648 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 1: it for me, is all that talent on the Dallas 649 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: roster good enough to overcome beat the best player on 650 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: the field and maybe the best player in the league. 651 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's go through a round of I think 652 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: I think the Dallas offense can match Seattle scoring. However, 653 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: I actually think it's going to be very similar to the 654 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: the last week. I think the o this offense is 655 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: going to have some challenges throughout this game from that 656 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: Seattle defense. I think they're gonna probably have some turnovers, 657 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 1: whether that's fumbles or interceptions, and I think they're gonna 658 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: have some moments where you're gonna be like, man, they're 659 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 1: not being able to get things going. And it's not 660 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: gonna be again because the offensive playmakers are not able 661 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 1: to make plays, which I think that was the fallacy 662 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 1: of a way A lot of people looked at last 663 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: week's game, they thought Gack was struggling for part of 664 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 1: the game. He was not. It was a situation where 665 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: they would get going and then they would have a 666 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: mistake and the mistake would kill their drive, whether that's 667 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 1: a turnover or silly penalty, whatever it might be. I 668 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be something similar this week. But I 669 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: do think overall the Cowboys offense can match up with 670 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: the Seattle offense and can score with them and be 671 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 1: right there in the game at the end. Nick, what's 672 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: up next? I think Michael Gallup's gonna have a big game. 673 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 1: I think that's the key here, Cou for CD. We've 674 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: seen it in the first two games. Gallop really he's 675 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 1: had some big plays late in the game, of course, 676 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: but I think that he's going to have his best 677 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 1: game of the season. And I just think that they 678 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: can't cover everyone, and if their best safety is going 679 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: to be playing more like a linebacker, that's going to 680 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: open them up even more. There's no way Seattle's got 681 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: three cornerbacks that can handle those three. I think big 682 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: game for Gallop amber Um, we'll be talking. We've been 683 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 1: talking a lot about the Cowboys defense and the struggles 684 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: that they've been having. But I do think that this 685 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: week they'll be able to play better. Now, I don't 686 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: know if that'll be enough to actually help the Gallays win, 687 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: but I think they'll They'll be able to manage to 688 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 1: make some good play, some important plays in there in 689 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 1: the game, and be able to just perform better overall 690 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: compared to the first two weeks. All Right, Dave Um, 691 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:02,320 Speaker 1: curveball of some so or because anytime the talking points 692 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 1: are this obvious, that there's all like, there's gonna be 693 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 1: one and that I mean, you know, I think it's 694 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 1: still gonna be a quarterback heavy game. We're gonna see 695 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: a lot of points. I would be surprised if we don't. 696 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 1: But when I just when I say curveball a guy, 697 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: we're not talking about whether it's you know, you know, 698 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: maybe one of these pass rushers has like a crazy 699 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,399 Speaker 1: good game, whether it's Tank or Alden Smith, like maybe 700 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: somebody breaks out of a rut, or maybe you know, 701 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: Jalen Smith, who who people have been dogging, gets a pick, 702 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: or maybe on the Seahawks side, Chris Carson just has 703 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: a way better game than people are expecting. Like, holy crap, 704 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: Chris Carson ran for one hundred and forty on these 705 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: guys that ain't good. Just something like that, because because 706 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: anytime the storylines are this obvious, there's there's bound to 707 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,840 Speaker 1: be some sort of surprise. You know, I agree with 708 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 1: you on that. I actually think Chris Carson. Carson's gonna 709 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 1: have a really good game. I don't know what it is, 710 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,879 Speaker 1: but I just think I think they want to run 711 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 1: the ball, and I think they look at this Cowboys 712 00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: offense and they're probably having that same conversation we've been 713 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,320 Speaker 1: having during this show about whether their best their best 714 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: offense to some degree is trying to keep the ball 715 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: out of the hands of this Cowboys offense. So I 716 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,000 Speaker 1: kind of wonder if they're going to try to run 717 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:11,319 Speaker 1: the ball a little bit more this week than they 718 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:12,919 Speaker 1: may have the first two weeks, so that they don't 719 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:14,319 Speaker 1: end up in that kind of track. Me and I 720 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 1: think Chris Carson is a very very capable running back. 721 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 1: All Right, Finally, let's get to what I have no 722 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: idea about, and I have no idea who on the 723 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 1: Dallas defense can make a play to get a stop 724 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 1: in a critical moment. And I think this game does 725 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: come down to a critical moment one of these two 726 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 1: defenses is ultimately going to make a stop. I don't 727 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 1: think they're gonna make stops all day. I think the game, 728 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: the team that ends up winning will have the defensive 729 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 1: player that makes a play in a critical moment of 730 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,520 Speaker 1: the game that ultimately gives their offense an opportunity to 731 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 1: win it. Nick, what do you have no idea about? 732 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: I really have no idea. How Mike McCarthy, you know, 733 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 1: calls games. And that's that's not a bad thing. I 734 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: mean because we always talk about being predictable and all that. So, uh, 735 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 1: you know, there's there's gonna be calls every week we 736 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 1: sit up there in the press box or wherever we 737 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: we don't agree with with. You know, some things we do, 738 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 1: some things we don't. I don't have a good feel. 739 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 1: I think he's going to be aggressive, but but you know, 740 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: when is he going to pick his spots there and 741 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 1: is he going to scale back from that? Is he 742 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: realizing maybe I shouldn't be so aggressive there. So I 743 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: don't have a good feel of Hal McCarthy's calling games. 744 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: And again, like I said, I don't know if that's bad. 745 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: It's interesting he mentioned earlier this week he's always been 746 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 1: an aggressive call, an aggressive coach when it comes to 747 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: game day strategy. I think he mentioned that was a 748 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: fourth and twenty four that he went for on that 749 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 1: press conference that he was on earlier this week, so 750 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: and he said they actually converted it. So he's always 751 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: said he's always been a guy that's that's really really 752 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 1: pushed the envelope. And so I think we just have 753 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: to get used to the idea that he's going to 754 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:47,399 Speaker 1: be aggressive, and I know Dave loves that so well, 755 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: I'm sure Dave will be happy with it. Amba what 756 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:53,840 Speaker 1: you got. It's funny because that's exactly what I was 757 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: gonna say. Us. Well, just I have no idea, just 758 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: a calling, and I don't know if it's gonna work 759 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 1: out in their advantage this week. It might come down 760 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: to play decision that maybe it wasn't the right call, 761 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 1: or maybe it was the right call, and then again 762 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 1: the players weren't able to execute it well on the field. 763 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 1: But it's gonna be critical this week to be able 764 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,919 Speaker 1: to make the right calls at the right time. And 765 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: not like you. There's no room here for mistakes. Okay, 766 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: So I just have no idea how the call playing 767 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 1: it's gonna be this week and if it's gonna end 768 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: up working in their advantage Again, all right, Dave, I 769 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: have no idea. I mean, I mean, I have no 770 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: idea how the Cowboys defense is going to do enough 771 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: to limit Russ. But that's obvious. I think more of 772 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:56,319 Speaker 1: like the big picture, I have no idea what this 773 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 1: game is gonna mean if they lose it, I mean, 774 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 1: if they win. I think that it says a lot. 775 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 1: I think I feel comfortable saying I think the Seahawks 776 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,800 Speaker 1: are going to be in the playoffs. They almost always are. 777 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: This could be a big statement went for them. But 778 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: what does it mean if they lose? And how did 779 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 1: they lose? Obviously, I mean, if they go up there 780 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: and play like crap, that's a different story from if 781 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,960 Speaker 1: they just come up short. But how do you evaluate 782 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: this team if they can't get it done? You know, 783 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: this is a team a lot of people are picking 784 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 1: to win ten, eleven, twelve games. They would have two 785 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: losses halfway through September. You know, are they good enough 786 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: to bounce out of that and reel off four or 787 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 1: five six wins in a road to compensate. I don't know. 788 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 1: I have no idea, so kind of I'm kind of 789 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: talking out of both sides of my mouth because I 790 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: know it would be big if they win, but I 791 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:43,919 Speaker 1: don't know how to react to it if they lose. 792 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 1: If that makes sense, it's good, that's good, all right, Amber, 793 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 1: Let's go ahead and get a couple fan questions. I 794 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 1: think maybe we'll get one or two hit before we 795 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: end the show. Okay, I have someone who's asking, how 796 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 1: is Tristan Hill doing? He seems like he was in 797 00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,399 Speaker 1: the Palicans backfield a lot last week. So how would 798 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: you write his performance so far in the season. I 799 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 1: think he has he looks slippery man. Yeah, yeah, it's 800 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:10,839 Speaker 1: a good, good word, like like he gets like, he 801 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: gets around blocks, he gets into the backfield. If you 802 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: go watch the tape, I thought he had a handful 803 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: of really good pressures. It seems like he's got work 804 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:20,439 Speaker 1: to do in the run game. I thought I saw, 805 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 1: you know, the interior guys on the Falcons push him 806 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 1: back a good bit. Um. But I've been encouraged by 807 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 1: what I've seen from a pass rushing standpoint for sure. 808 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,720 Speaker 1: And when you compare it to what you thought probably 809 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 1: coming out of last season, I think he is spades 810 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: better than what we all expected of him at this 811 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: point in this you know, going into second year. So 812 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 1: I think he's been pretty good. Yeah, me too, Yeah, Camber. Um, 813 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: I have a question about Tony Polar. Are you guys 814 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 1: expecting to see more of him this week? Um? Not? 815 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: If he's seven yards deep in the you know, in 816 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 1: the end zone, I hope not. Why he's he's got 817 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,839 Speaker 1: to be getting coached to to do that, or to say, hey, 818 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 1: if you see it and you think you can do 819 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 1: something with it, you should. And I will say this, 820 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: there was one time in particular while I was watching 821 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:10,399 Speaker 1: him come out, and he got it back to more 822 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,839 Speaker 1: than twenty five. So you know, if you get beyond 823 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 1: the twenty five, you've you've gotten a better net yards. 824 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: So you gotta remember that how many times blocks in 825 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,879 Speaker 1: the back or hauled on kickoff turns, It's just it's 826 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 1: not worth it, really. I mean. Now, of course he 827 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 1: might bust one out for like seventy five yards or 828 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 1: a touchdown, and then he were like every time, you know, 829 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 1: Cordell Patterson's style, but he's not there yet. But as 830 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,439 Speaker 1: for as for running the ball, and you know, yeah, 831 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: I think I think he'll just get an occasional mount. 832 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:39,400 Speaker 1: I mean, he got the first two carriers of the 833 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:41,359 Speaker 1: game right the other day, he tumbled one of them, 834 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 1: and they didn't go back to that. I mean, they 835 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,399 Speaker 1: started off with that twenty personnel with two running backs 836 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,800 Speaker 1: and three wide receivers, and they didn't really go I 837 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 1: don't think they went back to that at any other 838 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: point in the game. Do you notice that, David, at 839 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 1: any point they go back to that. I think Mike 840 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: was just trying to shut us all up. He was like, fine, 841 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 1: here's your twenty personnel and leave me alone. And then 842 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:03,720 Speaker 1: put the tight end And I'm I'm the Tony Pollard guy, 843 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 1: and i mean, based on last week, I'm not I'm 844 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 1: not chomping at the bit to see more. Between the 845 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:12,760 Speaker 1: kickoffs and then fumbled, had had it given back because 846 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: he was down, but still ball security. And then his 847 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 1: other run, I think he cut, he cut the wrong way, 848 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: like he could have had a better run if he 849 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,920 Speaker 1: had made a different cut. And I mean I'm not 850 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 1: saying put him on the bench forever. But it was 851 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 1: not his best performance last week. But I'm always in 852 00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: favor of packages that gets feed on the field. So 853 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: if you can get him six to twelve touches, it's 854 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: a okay with me. Look, the hard part here is 855 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: that as much as we think or I'll speak for myself, 856 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 1: as much as I think of Tony Pollard, I just 857 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: I'm in love ze two. So it's not like I'm 858 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,879 Speaker 1: pushing for Pollard to get out there. I'm like, you're 859 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:49,879 Speaker 1: fine with what you got. You got with on him, 860 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:51,879 Speaker 1: one of the best, if not the best running back 861 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 1: in the NFL. So taking him off the field to 862 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: to you know, put Pollard on or give Politt more opportunity, 863 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: I'm not really pushing for that. If it happens, great, 864 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: if Paula can do something with it. But I mean, 865 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 1: ze Zeke is the dude, Like, that's the guy you 866 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 1: want getting the ball if you're handing it off. All right, 867 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 1: real quick, before me in the show, let's go ahead 868 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:13,439 Speaker 1: and get some predictions here today. We're gonna start with Dave, 869 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:19,880 Speaker 1: give me your prediction for this upcoming game, Cowboys versus Seahawks. Okay, 870 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 1: so we did this thing last year where they kicked 871 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 1: everybody's butt for three weeks, and then they started losing, 872 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 1: and it just felt like every week you were like, Okay, 873 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: well this is this is the week that they're gonna 874 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 1: snap out of it and they'll do this and they'll 875 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 1: fix these problems. So I could sit here and say, 876 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:38,759 Speaker 1: you know, this will be the week that the pass 877 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,319 Speaker 1: rush gets home and they'll play a lot better on 878 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 1: defense and they'll be able to stop Russell Wilson. But 879 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 1: I need to see it to believe it, basically. And 880 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,840 Speaker 1: I think, you know, people love to hate on me 881 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,280 Speaker 1: because of the way I kind of revere the Packers, 882 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 1: But when you're as consistent as a guy like Russell 883 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 1: Wilson and Aaron Rodgers are in this league, that counts 884 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 1: for a lot me And Russell Wilson is definitely on 885 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 1: that level where I gotta see you beat him to 886 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: believe it, basically. And I know they beat him in 887 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs a couple of years ago, but that was 888 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: a different Seahawks team and a different Seahawks approach. I 889 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 1: think they're a lot more comfortable putting it in Russell 890 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: Wilson's hands, and I just I think the Cowboys have 891 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: the horses to keep up on offense, but I just 892 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 1: worry about that defense and playing at home. I gotta 893 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 1: give the nod to Russell Wilson. I think, you know, 894 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: Seahawks win by a score of like thirty four to 895 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 1: twenty eight or thirty eight thirty four, a three to 896 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: five point Seahawks win. But I think it's gonna be 897 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:44,360 Speaker 1: really exciting. All right, Amber, this is gonna be really stupid, 898 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 1: But I don't care. You guys know very well how much. 899 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:52,720 Speaker 1: And I've talked about how I like seeing how a 900 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:57,399 Speaker 1: person is feeling in their mannerisms and behavior and all that. Well, 901 00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 1: this year, we don't get to go to the locker room. 902 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 1: So when I'm in the office where I do the show, 903 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:07,360 Speaker 1: my view, I get to see exactly where Dak Prescott 904 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 1: and the quarterbacks walk out. Last week, when we were 905 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 1: doing the show, I saw Dak walking out with a 906 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,839 Speaker 1: lot of energy, nice little walk, and I'm like, man, 907 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 1: watch this guy win this week. But I chose that 908 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,960 Speaker 1: they we're gonna lose, mainly because of the injuries that 909 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 1: they had. I couldn't get past that. This week, Dak's 910 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 1: walk was a little lower, just kind of more chill, 911 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,319 Speaker 1: not as hyped. It had a little little hop to 912 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:36,480 Speaker 1: it that gave me a vibe that we could win 913 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 1: this game, but we might lose. So I'm gonna say, 914 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:44,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with They're gonna lose this game. It's 915 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 1: gonna be a close one. Just like Dak's walk, it 916 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:52,279 Speaker 1: wasn't fully one percent confidence, so I'm merely basing this 917 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: on his walk. Okay, so they're close game and it's 918 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 1: just gonna be a difference of like four points, but 919 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 1: it's gonna be in the ties. I think, all right, 920 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 1: what if the guy has a stomach ache, you know, like, 921 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:08,480 Speaker 1: what if he's not feeling good, he has to go 922 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,120 Speaker 1: to the bathroom or something. You're like, you're gonna pick 923 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:17,920 Speaker 1: the game based off of that? Maybe, Hey, that's true? 924 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 1: As I think, you know, I hear Russell Wilson is 925 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,920 Speaker 1: the hottest you know player in the league right now, 926 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 1: and and I get that, is he still red hot? 927 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 1: If if his cornerback doesn't stop the guy at the 928 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 1: one yard line, I mean, if they lose in their 929 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,479 Speaker 1: one and one, are we still looking at it the same? Um? 930 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,279 Speaker 1: He's played well, stats are great, but I mean he 931 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: didn't do anything to make sure that they didn't win 932 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 1: that you know, that game there on the goal line, 933 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 1: and same with the Cowboys. I they easily could be 934 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,840 Speaker 1: oh and two and all that. So I I like, 935 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys will will score a lot of points. 936 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:55,239 Speaker 1: I definitely think that. I think the Seahawks come down 937 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,400 Speaker 1: to earth a little bit. Again. I think the advantage 938 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 1: of not playing with in that crowd in front of 939 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:02,920 Speaker 1: that crowd will help. I think the Cowboys win by 940 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:06,319 Speaker 1: two scores thirty eight twenty seven because I think they're 941 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 1: a better football team. I really do. I think Russell's 942 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 1: really good. I think he comes down a little bit. 943 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 1: I love it win all right. I look at this 944 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,399 Speaker 1: game and I think it's gonna be similar real quick. 945 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 1: And if that happens and Mahomes Mahomes, the deal is 946 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:22,359 Speaker 1: not gonna be good enough for Dak. It happens, it's 947 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: gonna go off the chain, like it's gonna be like, 948 00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 1: oh my god, like now we're talking. You know, people 949 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:30,799 Speaker 1: can say that because it's not gonna happen right off 950 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 1: the bat, but I mean, geez, it does get interesting. 951 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 1: It would be all right. I think this is a 952 00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 1: game that's going to be very close. Summer Little last week. 953 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a very high scoring game. 954 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:42,480 Speaker 1: Summer Little last week. I think ultimately this game is 955 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,120 Speaker 1: gonna come down to a defensive play, and I think 956 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:48,359 Speaker 1: it's gonna be either Xavier Woods, Everson Griffin, or Trey 957 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:51,279 Speaker 1: Von Diggs that makes a big play that ends up 958 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 1: winning this game for Dallas. Dallas wins thirty eight, thirty 959 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:58,839 Speaker 1: seven and another thrilling victory. Same as Week two one 960 00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:02,359 Speaker 1: another one point one point Cowboys have the sixth tied 961 00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 1: for the fifth highest one point game, like in the 962 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:07,840 Speaker 1: history of the NFL. Like that was the highest scoring 963 00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,839 Speaker 1: one point game and the highest in Cowboys history, So 964 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:12,919 Speaker 1: that would be right up. That would be like number 965 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 1: seven or eight if they did that again. Let's go pep. 966 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 1: We'll see how it goes. All right, guys, appreciate you 967 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 1: join us. We'll be back on Monday.
