13
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: Dad have something to say to him? Because I think

14
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: Dad should have said something to Sorry, sir, I'm sorry. Yeah.

15
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 1: My parents I don't I don't know how much of

16
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 1: a fan. They argue Dave because you didn't call me special.

17
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: And since my whole life, I've never been at Dannyelle.

18
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: It's always been Danny And for some reason, Dave is

19
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 1: calling me Danielle, and so my parents are well, why

20
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: are we not allowed to call you Danny Ellen. It's

21
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: the can you're changing that dynamic a little bit. Not

22
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: another Danny that's up at your house like there is

23
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: here with Danny McCrae. So we have to what what

24
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 1: so happened? Danny McCrae, will just come, have to hang

25
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: out a little more. I guess that way I can

26
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 1: for them all. You have to be Danielle. Come out

27
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 1: of the house. Come hang out of the house. Yes,

28
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: we are going through our office dynamics here on the podcast.

29
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: That's what we're not that anybody cares. All Right, here

30
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: we go. Let's talk about this team. It's a Tuesday,

31
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: so we're taking a big picture look around the NFL

32
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: and how it relates to the Cowboys. First thing stands

33
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: out to me is Cowboys sitting at three and Owen's

34
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: vision and there's the next closest team is one in

35
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: two Philadelphias one and two. It's got to win this

36
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: last week by some I don't know, some fluke chance

37
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: and they're now one and two. Flup chants or a

38
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 1: good quarterback. Well, good quarterback got in a position. But

39
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 1: that missfield goal. That's that's true. They should have lost.

40
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: They should have lost, but hey, hey, that's the NFL,

41
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: and you take the wins where you can get them.

42
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: But the Washington Redskins after watching them last night, oh

43
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: my gosh, it's the wheels have fallen off that thing. Fire. Yeah.

44
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: Oh and three, do you guys think at this point

45
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: Philly still is the greatest? If there is a threat,

46
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: the greatest right here in the NFC. We do this.

47
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 1: We and I'm guilty, everybody does it. I'm not trying

48
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: to throw shade. Like you watch the games, you see

49
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 1: the problems, and you overreact because you're only given so

50
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: much evidence. But need we forget that the Cowboys were

51
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 1: three and five at the halfway point of last year.

52
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,519
Speaker 1: Like to write off a team with as much talent

53
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,959
Speaker 1: as the Eagles because they are one and two is silly.

54
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: How much does the loss of their they like, they

55
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 1: had a lot of guys that have been injured now

56
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: and one their defensive tackle out the year, I think,

57
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: I mean, how much does that affect what you think

58
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: of them as a team and what kind of threat

59
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: they posted the Cowboys? Well, they have done a good

60
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 1: job in recent years of rallying with those injuries, so

61
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: I yeah, that hurts and we saw just the Cowboys

62
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: the way they played. I mean, we didn't talk about

63
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: it at all yesterday that injuries were a factor. But

64
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: no one wants to hear injuries that you're talking about

65
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: your own team. But other teams you can talk about

66
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: it and if the same struggle, we will know why,

67
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: you know. But but if the Cowboy, if anybody struggles

68
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 1: with injuries, you know, it's it's an excuse. But I

69
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: do think the Eagles can turn it around. Let's not

70
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: forget though they've won one game and they beat the

71
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: Redskins at home when they fell behind and behind and

72
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: had they do not look good. I'm not. I mean,

73
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: they haven't looked good in any of the games that

74
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: they've played, really if but you know, Nelson Agilar catches

75
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: that passed down the sideline, it's a touchdown, and they

76
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: probably beat the Falcons. The irony, that's what I was

77
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: going to bring up, is like the irony is that

78
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: it's their their skill players are not showing up for

79
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: them right now. And they got a lot of credit

80
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: for that. I Mean, the Cowboys got killed for giving

81
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: up what they gave for Amari Cooper, and the Eagles

82
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: got praised as this forward thing, and they are the

83
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: Eagles there. That is a smart front office. But they

84
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: gave up a third for a Golden Tate who's not

85
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: on the team anymore. But I thought he just help

86
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 1: for he's with the Giants. Now oh yeah, he's up

87
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: for the Giants. But yes, yes, I got the Eagles

88
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: were the smarter of the two teams. Meanwhile, Marie Cooper's

89
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: killing it, Golden Tate's not even there, Nelson Agilar can't

90
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: catch anything. Two injuries that are huge for them right now.

91
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard who also you know, the Eagles got a

92
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: lot of praise for jumping up and getting him too.

93
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: He's had problems with drops. So you know, I know

94
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: Wins and Dak are always going to be compared because

95
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: of their draft class, and that's the argument everybody wants

96
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: to have, like Carson Wentz is not getting a ton

97
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: of help right now, which maybe the Eagles didn't do

98
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: as good of a job investing in their skill players

99
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: as a lot of people thought they did. How much

100
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: is that changing change in your opinion when they get

101
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 1: alshon Jeffrey and to Shaun Jackson back. Yeah, no for sure,

102
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: And that's I don't think just temporary. Obviously, both those

103
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: guys are into but it's not long term. You cannot

104
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: right before the Cowboy game, that's no doubt. I'm I'm

105
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: not saying that the Eagles are gonna like rip off

106
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 1: ten wins in a row or win the Super Bowl

107
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: or any of that stuff. But like if I just

108
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: I don't believe that they're going to be like this

109
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 1: for the whole season, Like they're gonna They'll be fine

110
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 1: in the long run. Right all right, Um, here's something

111
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 1: else that stood out to me. There are right now,

112
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: there are eight teams in the NFL that are unbeaten.

113
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 1: Cowboys are one of them. Here are the others, New

114
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: England Patriots, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Rams,

115
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills, Kansas City Chiefs, San Francisco forty nine Ers.

116
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: The interesting thing apart about that is five of those

117
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 1: out of the seven that are unbeaten, that the Cowboys

118
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: are not one. I mean obviously that you showing count

119
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are on the Cowboys schedule here and the

120
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: rest of the season. Which of those five, and I

121
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: want you to put them in rank order, do you

122
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: think pose the most to least Okay, so let's take

123
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: it for granted. Everybody can let the Patriots number one,

124
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: but most the least who poses the biggest threats for

125
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 1: the Cowboys as they have, They'll have to play all

126
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 1: five of those teams. And I would say the Patriots

127
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: probably regardless where the game is, but the fact that

128
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 1: it's there, I mean, obviously, no doubt. I'm I'm a

129
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 1: little annoyed, is which And I guess there's a point

130
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: there is, like it's a new season. You can never

131
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: take anything for granted. None of the Patriots opponents have

132
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: won a game. I know that they've played in the

133
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 1: last three Super Bowls. It's okay to assume that they're

134
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 1: probably pretty good. It's fine, and maybe this year even

135
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: a little better than they've been. Certainly on their defense,

136
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: their defense is played really really remarkably good football. There's

137
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: a guy on Twitter that that was kind of mad

138
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: at us for not saying something yesterday, remember about the

139
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: not mad, but he was just saying that, you know,

140
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: Amber was talking about slow starts by Dacks, Like why

141
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: didn't you say anything about Tom Brady? AND's because he's

142
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: won six Super Bowl rings. Yeah, so that's really why

143
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: that mean that's it's hard to compare them. The Patriots

144
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: will be number one for me. Give me the Patriots one.

145
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: And I try to keep his close n eye on

146
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: the league as possible. I haven't seen all these teams

147
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: play all their games. The Packers. The Packers with their

148
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,039
Speaker 1: combination of their defense, and I know their offense has

149
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: been pretty But when you have a quarterback like that,

150
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: I trust that you can figure it out enough, especially

151
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: if your defense is doing what their's is. I say

152
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: New England and Green Bay two. The only thing I

153
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: think I would switch as Kansas City. Oh the schedule.

154
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: So you've got New England, Green Bay, Los Angeles, Buffalo

155
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: and Detroit. Detroit five, New England one. You guys figure

156
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: out the middle. Well, the one that's interesting to me

157
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: is really two and three. Where do you put green

158
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: Bay in the Rams? Yeah? Who Who's Who's higher between

159
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: Green Bay and the ram That is tough. I say

160
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: Packers because we know, we think we know what we're

161
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: gonna get, you know, because they're gonna they're gonna have

162
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: ten days of rest on you and the Caboys will

163
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: play Sunday night. They're gonna play the Eagles Thursday. Then

164
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 1: they'll have ten days, and you're smart, you're thinking of

165
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: it literally in exact terms of how they're gonna be

166
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: on the schedule, right, which, yeah, the Packers get a

167
00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: lot of fans there and all that kind of stuff,

168
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: where who knows what any team's gonna look like in December. Um,

169
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: but if Aaron Donald's on the field, then they're gonna be.

170
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: They're gonna be, will say, two Rams. I mean we've

171
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: seen the last couple of times Cowboys have played them,

172
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: the struggles of playing that team, I mean offensively, but

173
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: even still, I mean, they've still proven that they can

174
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 1: disrupt the defense. You have Aaron Donald on their defense,

175
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: I think that might be right now more balanced, Yeah,

176
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: I mean now I still think Aaron Rodgers is probably right.

177
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,199
Speaker 1: You know, even without it what you expect, what would

178
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 1: you be most surprised that Cowboys win against the Packers

179
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 1: in Week five or that they beat the Rams at home?

180
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: I think I surprised to be more surprised about the

181
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 1: Rams win, So I would not. I would be the opposite.

182
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: And again maybe it's because I have PTSD dealing with

183
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 1: aa Ron. I mean, I just that it's interesting and

184
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 1: anybody who's ever listened to this show, knows how I

185
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: feel about Rogers. Cowboys fans tell me they hate how

186
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: much I love him all the time. He really since

187
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: the sixteen season when he beat them here, he hasn't

188
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: been that guy. Really. Whether it's because of injury or

189
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: problems with the scheme, he has not been that, I

190
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: don't know. But here's the thing. The rant like, the

191
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: Rams have everything else, but I'm not sold on Jared Goff.

192
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: There you go, right, The Packers really don't have I mean,

193
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: Davante Adams is great, but they don't have nearly as

194
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: many weapons that scare you. But they have that quarterback

195
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: who can flip it on and be transcendent whenever he wants. Basically,

196
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 1: I mean, even if he hasn't been that guy recently,

197
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: he can't be a one hundred percent sure that he

198
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: won't be. And let's remember this is a new offense

199
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 1: for him. So I'm giving the offense. I'm giving their

200
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: off there's scoring enough points obviously because they're winning, but

201
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm giving him the benefit. I'm giving them the benefit

202
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: of the doubt that as this thing keeps going, their

203
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: offense is going to get better and better. And I

204
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: think I'd rather visibility, So I think I would rank

205
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: it New England Green Bay than the Rams, just because

206
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: of how much respect I have for Rodgers. But I

207
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: think it's very good for the Cowboys that they get

208
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: that game out of the way on sixth, and because

209
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 1: you know, it still looks kind of ugly, like their

210
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: offense has not been in sank to any points so

211
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: far this season, kicking a lot of field goals ten

212
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: points against the Bears, three field goals against the Broncos.

213
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 1: So you know, when you're thinking about defenses, I think

214
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 1: the Rams would have the best defense. I think the

215
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: next one would be the Bills. You know, the Bills

216
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 1: defense is really good right now. Well, I think New

217
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: Englands up there. Yeah, and they play each other this week,

218
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: so we'll find out. It'd be a great test for

219
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: that Bill's defense. But Bills Thanksgiving, you know, I don't

220
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: that could be a hard game New England has. When

221
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: you look at points allowed and points scored, New England

222
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,599
Speaker 1: is I think they are one in one category and

223
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: two in the other. Cowboys are only other team in

224
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 1: the top five that are Among these teams, Cowboys are

225
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: number four both points scored and points allowed, and that's

226
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: where Cowboys fans will yell at you, because the Patriots

227
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 1: have played arguably the three worst teams in the league.

228
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 1: They've played the Jets, the Dolphins, and who they play

229
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: last week they play the Steelers, the Steelers who have

230
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,439
Speaker 1: not looked good. Yeah, they're struggling, and I get that,

231
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: and they probably won't be as utterly dominant as the

232
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: season goes along, but it's still a pretty good bet

233
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: they're gonna win eleven or twelve games, because they do

234
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: every year. And you know, the thing about it is

235
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: is the two and there's a couple of two and

236
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: one teams that are probably you know, scarier than you know,

237
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: the Bills and the and the lying in you're facing

238
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 1: this weekend with the Saints and the Bears. I mean,

239
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: the Bears looked pretty good on defense, and you know

240
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people were saying about, Man, I wish

241
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys were like the Bears, you know, taking but

242
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: would you would you take that? And then their offense? No,

243
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I would take the Cowboys offense with their

244
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: defense over that. And that's kind of the point of

245
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 1: what I was saying about the Cowboys and the Patriots

246
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 1: being the only two in the top five that are

247
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,439
Speaker 1: ranked in the top five in both those categories. Is

248
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: what I love about this Cowboys team is they're really balanced. Um,

249
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: and you can look at a lot of teams. There

250
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: are a lot of teams that in this grouping that

251
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,199
Speaker 1: we're in the top five in offense points scored. There

252
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: were then another group of them that were in the

253
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: top five in points allowed. It's only two that are

254
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 1: in the top five in both, and I think that's

255
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: the balance now. Of course, both those teams again playing

256
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins helps, and both those teams played the

257
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins. So let's see how all the season progresses.

258
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: But as of right now, what we've seen so far,

259
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: there seems to be a lot of balance on the

260
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 1: Cowboys and a lot of balance with the Patriots. All Right,

261
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,679
Speaker 1: we're gonna take our first break. When we come back,

262
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: I want to talk a little bit about some injured guys.

263
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: There were some guys that missed this last game, and

264
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 1: I want to talk about how their replacements played relative

265
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 1: to them and what that may mean for the future

266
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: when those guys comes back. We'll do that when we

267
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: come right back. This is Dollas Cowboys dot com Radio. Well,

268
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,559

269
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: out on the field that you really find out what

270
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 1: he's made of. That's why the Cowboys rely on more

271
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,040

Speaker 1: dot com slash app. We've played it last week and

316
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: just kind of predicting one hundred yards for zeke you

00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,360

00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 1: little meeting. We're gonna play, but we can't wina okaygging rights,

321
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 1: although we do get bragging rights, and there may be

322
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: a lunch in it. Maybe we'll decide that we'll go

323
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: and get some tender smoke. No, I'm just saying there

324
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: may be things that we can do with it amongst

325
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: ourselves that have a little fun with this. So but yeah,

326
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: if you haven't checked out free to play, make sure

327
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: you check it out. By the way, I heard from

328
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 1: a couple of people on Twitter they we're having a

329
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: hard time getting to it. The one thing I'll tell

330
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: you is make sure you're updated. Like there's there's an

331
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 1: update that come that came out that updated the app

332
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: so that you have access to that game. Make sure

333
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: you've updated your app and that'll make sure you can

334
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: have access to the game, and then from there you

335
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: should be good. There are a couple of other things

336
00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: we're working on and make it a little easier for

337
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: you guys to get in and play, but makes you

338
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 1: get check it out. It's a fun game to play,

339
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: and you can update it throughout the game to keep

340
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: earning points each quarter. So a lot of stuff to do.

341
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 1: All right, let's jump back in. I want to talk

342
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: about these injuries. There were three guys in particular that

343
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: missed this last week's game due to injury. I want you,

344
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: guys to tell me three different things as I as

345
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: I tell you a name, I want you to tell

346
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: me what you know of their current injury status. I

347
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: want you to tell me how comfortable you are with

348
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: the person that replaced them in this last game, how

349
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: they played. And then number three oh, and I'm sorry.

350
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 1: Those are the two things. And then I want to

351
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: talk a little bit specifically more about Tyrone Crawford and

352
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: kind of what his role will be when he comes back.

353
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: So let's start first with Xavier Woods. Tell me what

354
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 1: you know of his injury status at this point, he's

355
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: expected to practice tomorrow. Good, so we'll see four to six.

356
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: That was just completely bad report, which we'll see. We

357
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: got to see if he actually practices, but he is

358
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: expected slash their optimists, the trainers, Stephen Jones, everybody was like,

359
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 1: what what was that? Like, you know, the report? It

360
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: was just that one. You know. Then they're not always

361
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: like that. You know, where usually there's where they're smoked,

362
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 1: there's fire, it's closed. But with this one, I think

363
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: he might have been able to get in there and

364
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: practice and play. Um if I kind of think that

365
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 1: even the Cowboys looked at the Dolphins and said, you

366
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,919
Speaker 1: know what we're gonna We're gonna give, you know, the

367
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt on some of these injuries here,

368
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 1: and we think we can win without him. And they did.

369
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 1: But I mean you could tell that it was kind

370
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: of adding up a little bit. But I'll answer the

371
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 1: second part that being said, um and our list of

372
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: top ten performers for the game. Darien Thompson came in,

373
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 1: played well. Jason Garrett praised him. He did a nice job.

374
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: They're replacing Xavier Woods more depth. Another example of a

375
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: guy like Devin Smith drafted in the third round, didn't

376
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: work out with his first stop with the Giants, and

377
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 1: he's getting a chance to play here and he's making

378
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: most of it. Good depth there for the safety. Yeah,

379
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: he had that that tackle that forced him to go

380
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: for that field goal early on. It's exciting to see

381
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: a guy who was dealing with injuries early on in

382
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: his career. And I've been playing on special teams, but

383
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: to get that opportunity to start and then perform well,

384
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's reassuring and then you just have more confidence.

385
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: And that's and that's the Taco Charlton and guys like

386
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 1: that that you know, Steven said, he's even Jones will

387
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: say he's gonna go and play well. He thinks he'll

388
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 1: have a good career. But these guys just need a

389
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 1: fresh start for whatever the reason. And you know, I

390
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 1: think Thompson's in that boat definitely. Devin Smith has shown

391
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 1: it the best one on the team so far, I

392
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: think is Antoine Woods. Antoine Woods is a key player

393
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,360
Speaker 1: for this team, and he might be a guy you're

394
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,199
Speaker 1: going to mention here in a second, but he's another

395
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: guy that didn't work out the first stop around, gets

396
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 1: a new spot, gets in a group hot boys, all

397
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: that next thing, you know. Leaning on Antoine Woods. This

398
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 1: is a question that I kind of already know the

399
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 1: answer too, but I have to ask it because I

400
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: know fans will ask it. Is Deary and Thompson the

401
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: kind of guy that's good enough that win. Xavier Woods

402
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: is back, that maybe he still works in and maybe

403
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,239
Speaker 1: they have a rotation or that maybe he becomes a

404
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 1: viable option at some point, maybe even not this year,

405
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: maybe after this year's done to replace m Heath. We

406
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 1: haven't seen. They really loved that three safety thing in

407
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen when JJ Wilcox was here, they did it

408
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: a lot. I haven't done it as much recently, and

409
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: I think Wilson might be a little might be the

410
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: guy even more ahead of Darry and Thompson. Oh you're

411
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: saying next year, Yeah, I mean, I'm just talking about

412
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: if you're not going to resign it Heath, but I

413
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,640
Speaker 1: think I think, I think they'll look at both of them,

414
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, Yeah, I any. I mean,

415
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 1: and over the course of the year, they'll throw a

416
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: lot of different stuff out there, But like, I don't,

417
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: I don't expect them to be doing a three safety

418
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 1: look on a heavy basis. I am. I'm long term.

419
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 1: I'm curious what that means. You know, Jeff Heaths in

420
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 1: a contract year, he could probably resign him for a

421
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: reasonable amount of money. Like I don't. I don't know

422
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: that he's going to be in huge demand or will

423
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 1: Thompson or Wilson be good enough to move into that

424
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: role next year. I believe Thompson was the first player

425
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: they signed in free agency. You know, there's a lot

426
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: of talk about him and nod Jamay's like they were

427
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: like the first two guys and obvious, you know, and

428
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: there were lots of jokes about it. Well, yeah, it

429
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:09,959
Speaker 1: was like they're trying to get safety is the whole time.

430
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 1: I was gonna be the guy, like we got a safety.

431
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: He's a veteran, he was a high pick. Yeah, and

432
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: his name is Darian Thompson and played pretty good. So

433
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: he played he played well Yeah, all right, let's talk

434
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 1: about Antoine Woods. Tell me what his current injury status is,

435
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: and then how comfortable you feel with him being replaced

436
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 1: by Tristan Hill. Knee injury not expected back. Weird, I've

437
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 1: been not going to play in this game. Okay, are

438
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 1: your thoughts on Tristan this last game? I thought he

439
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 1: played well and when Christiana it was Covington really ask

440
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: me as because Tristan was the guy that actually got

441
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 1: the bump to to actually getting playing. But yeah, talk

442
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 1: about both of them and how you think they performed

443
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: relativity and got hurt with the you know, grew some

444
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: terrible calf injury, but came back and you will always

445
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: have respect for the calf injury, no doubt, man. And

446
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 1: during the game knicks like man that calf and he

447
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 1: can come back late on that thing. Man, it's good

448
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 1: calf injuries, no joke, but probably getting a much better

449
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 1: rehab over there than I did. But anyways, I thought

450
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: he played pretty well and and Tristan in the in

451
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 1: the on those goal line plays, did a good job

452
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: of kind of knife and in there making some plays.

453
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 1: Danny brought up Thompson's tackle on the goal line. Hill

454
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: blew up the lines that he so he had the

455
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: alley to make the tackle. So, um, I actually looks

456
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 1: way better than ninety seven. I actually I was just

457
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: looking at the snap counts because I was looking at

458
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 1: Robert Quinn and I didn't I don't, I didn't look

459
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,679
Speaker 1: at Hills. I'm curious. I need to go back and

460
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 1: look at that. Like he didn't play a gigantic amount

461
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: of snaps like Covington really did, you know, for whatever reason,

462
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: he didn't come off the field a lot, but in

463
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 1: the opportunities he got, thought he'll look good. How do

464
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: you think with regards to Covington, did you feel comfortable

465
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 1: about him being the guy? With Antoine Woods out presumably

466
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: more games, especially now facing two teams back to back

467
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: that are really good teams. We had offs of teams.

468
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: When you say comfortable, I mean I want Antoine Woods

469
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: to come back. But like, do you think there's an

470
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 1: appreciable difference between the two. That's that's a lot of

471
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: dead air. I like, I don't think it's okay. I

472
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: don't know if Antoine Woods is like and you know

473
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: this all pro just Fletcher Cox disrupt the line. But

474
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: I think you want all hands on deck. My point

475
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: was going to be, I don't think it's a dire

476
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 1: enough situation that they call a guy up from the

477
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 1: practice squad or something about that say that. I was

478
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: kind of I think they will said let's look into that.

479
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 1: Let's on the numbers, because they did get into situation

480
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 1: with obviously Tyrone Crawford is he's probably next on your

481
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 1: list to talk about. But I don't think he's gonna

482
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 1: play this week either, and so he's your best defensive

483
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: end that can slide in. We saw Carrie hyder do

484
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,479
Speaker 1: it um may matter of fact, he played every position

485
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: this last yea um. But you know, when you when

486
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: you get to the game, I mean, could Daniel Wise

487
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: maybe be someone that you think about, because let's just

488
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: look at the numbers. You're gonna you're gonna start with

489
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: Covington and Malik in the inside, with Quinn and d

490
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,919
Speaker 1: Law on the outside, and then you're gonna rotate in

491
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 1: Your next four guys are gonna be Dorm's, Armstrong, hyder Um,

492
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: Tristan Hill, and then I'm missing Joe Jackson. Uh. I

493
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 1: guess they haven't done more than eight anyways, right, Yeah,

494
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: they haven't done nine. Joe Jackson slide down. Yes, he

495
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 1: hasn't done it a lot, but he can. I'm just

496
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 1: thinking about what are your options if you lose a

497
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 1: defensive tackle during this game? Right? They lost a defensive

498
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: tackle during the Week three, and basically you just say

499
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: you got to just go with the hold. And I

500
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: don't know if why is the I mean he's he

501
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 1: hasn't played. I don't know. Do you think he would

502
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,679
Speaker 1: be ready welcome to the NFL and just go up

503
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 1: Sunday Night football the Saints. The other thing, too, is

504
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: the way the roster is right now. How comfortable do

505
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: you feel about cutting a guy to move Daniel Wise

506
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: onto the rosters? I mean it's a guard, I'll be

507
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: all right. Well, yeah, I mean you, I mean you

508
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: have Brandon Knight and Adam Remember. I'm just thinking if

509
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 1: you think Crawford and Woods can be back for Week

510
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 1: five for maybe you just try to get through safeties.

511
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 1: Do you need five safeties? Oh? No, For all the

512
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: smack we've talked about him, Cabon Frazier almost blocked a

513
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: punt the other day. Yeah, so I don't think they

514
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: need to do that. I think Covington Hill and these

515
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 1: other guys being able to move around. I think they

516
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: can get through this game. All right, Let's move on

517
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 1: to Tyrone Crawford. What's his status? And obviously the guy

518
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: that replaced him is going to probably be his replacement.

519
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 1: But that's a question for you guys of what happens

520
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: even when he comes back. See that's I don't worry

521
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,920
Speaker 1: about that. People always try to make it a big deal.

522
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,360
Speaker 1: I did. I did look this up. Quinn played more

523
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: than they thought he would and it was sixty five

524
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: percent so and he was third on the D line

525
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: in terms of snaps. The DeMarcus Lawrence got about sixty

526
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: seven and Malie Collins played seventy six. That's probably because

527
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: they're shorthanded at tackle more than anything. So even your

528
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 1: best linemen are off the field a third of the time,

529
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,239
Speaker 1: so there's room for both of them. Like Quinn. I mean,

530
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: Quinn don't get the start, and you probably have him

531
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: in in obvious pass rushing situations because he's clearly got

532
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: the speed and the bend. I'm that was impressive. Yeah, um,

533
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 1: And but but Tyron Crawford, there will be snaps for

534
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: him to go there. Third and long is going to

535
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 1: be much better because you know the guys you have

536
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 1: to play in the interior. I've seen Malik out there.

537
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 1: They put Hyder in there. You know, from a third

538
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: and long pass rushing situation. If Crawford can be in there,

539
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 1: that's a much better rusher than you got your two

540
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 1: you know, Law and m d Law and Quentinn on

541
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: the outside. So uh now when it gets the third

542
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: and four, third and five, I don't know if that's

543
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: the best spot. I still like to have Mileague and

544
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: maybe Woods, you know, in case there's a draw or

545
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: something like that. Because I'll tell you what this week,

546
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: this is not there in Sprowls. I mean, this isn't

547
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: this little, you know, Westbrook type of guy. He's that height,

548
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 1: but he I mean, he's running right in the middle

549
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: like he's a different animal. This He is a really

550
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: really kamara, a really really good football. It's so impressive

551
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: that it's so impressive to me that coming out of

552
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 1: college people even questioned whether he could run between the tackles,

553
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: and now you see him being a back that literally

554
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: it is hard to take down. You get a hand

555
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 1: on him, it's hard to take him down. It's not

556
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: like it's yeah, it's not like it's a situation where

557
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 1: he's just so slippery, which he's a quick guy, but

558
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,439
Speaker 1: at the same time, like he'll run through a tackle

559
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,439
Speaker 1: like it's it's just amazing to me that that was

560
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 1: so off for so many people of thinking what he

561
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: really could be. I love it when football people basically

562
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 1: admit that they don't know everything, because like Pete Carroll

563
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,640
Speaker 1: went on the radio in Seattle on Monday and was like,

564
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 1: I didn't know he could run between the tackles that,

565
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,719
Speaker 1: and like everybody on Twitter was like, you didn't because

566
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 1: he's been doing it since he got in the league.

567
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I know he split time with Ingram and

568
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: he was kind of the gadget guy, but like he

569
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: can run and his balance might be the best in

570
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 1: the league. Yeah, I think he's he's as close to

571
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 1: and he's even quicker. But he's similar to Ladanian Tomlinson.

572
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: I guess when you're talking about just hype not that

573
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 1: big but yet really hard to bring down. But I

574
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 1: think that he is faster and quicker than lt Um.

575
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: And yes I call him lt without breeze. I think, no, no, no,

576
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 1: that's not because of that. It's because I was I

577
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: was one time at a at a Conference or whatever

578
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,120
Speaker 1: with some other teams in the league, and I called

579
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 1: them LT and the Giants guys were like, listen, there's

580
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 1: only one LT. I'm like, actually, there's two. No, there's

581
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 1: one LT. They're both in the Hall of Fame. Okay,

582
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 1: they're good. Are you gonna say? I was gonna say.

583
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: I think it'll be interesting too if Bridgewater instead of

584
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 1: Breeze playing. I mean, they still have plenty of weapons

585
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: down the field, but I mean kamaras I mean taking

586
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: a heavy load now, so it'll be a tough test

587
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 1: for the defense. I to go off that I put

588
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 1: the I retweeted this one of my favorite football follows

589
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: on Twitter. He cut up all of Teddy's completions against

590
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and no disrespect intended to him, because I

591
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 1: think it's the smart way to play it. Think and

592
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: dunk city, like he maybe took two shots further than

593
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 1: fifteen yards downfield, like literally just putting it in Kamara's

594
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 1: hands and Michael Thomas's hands and letting them make the plays.

595
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,360
Speaker 1: And that's you know, it's your first start in three

596
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: years on the road in a tough environment. That makes sense.

597
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's going to look exactly like that.

598
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,360
Speaker 1: But I just think tackling is going to be such

599
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 1: a big part of this game because they're going to

600
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,880
Speaker 1: be leaning on the skill players more so than the quarterback,

601
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 1: whereas obviously when you have breeze, it's a little bit

602
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: of a different story. Let's take our final break. When

603
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: we come back, we have to talk about Michael Gallop

604
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 1: and how David Smith is playing replacing him. We'll also

605
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: get to some questions. You guys can call us eight

606
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: eight eight eight five five two two nine seven. We

607
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: also have some questions coming in via Twitter. You can

608
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 1: hit me at Derek Eagleton and I'll answer the answer

609
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,240

Speaker 1: is the final segment of the Break Life from the

647
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 1: s WBC Mortgage Studios. At the start, we're talking about

648
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: some of the injured guys and the guys that have

649
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 1: replaced them, how well they are playing. We had one

650
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: more I wanted to talk about. Michael Gallup missed this

651
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 1: last game. He's had surgery. At this point, it's a

652
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: waiting game to see when he will return. Devin Smith

653
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: has been taking his place. What do you guys think

654
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: of his performance? And then going into the future, how

655
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 1: comfortable do you feel with him being really that guy

656
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: that's opposite of Mark Cooper and one of the top

657
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 1: three on the scene. I think we kind of disagreed

658
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: last week on how much of an impact it would be.

659
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 1: I thought that they would do him. I thought Devin

660
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: Smith would step in and nothing against Michael Gallop. But

661
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: I just thought that it would be okay. But Dave

662
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 1: was like, nah, I wasn't comfortable with that. And I

663
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: think we did see that Gallup was missed more than

664
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: I thought he would be. You think you think that

665
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 1: what we saw at the beginning of the game was

666
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 1: a result of Michael Gallup not be because they weren't

667
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 1: getting open. I mean, like the line was, the line

668
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: was blocking fine, and those guys weren't getting open. And

669
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 1: Xavian Howard's a really good corner and he got beat

670
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: at times by Mary. It was a great matchup, but

671
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 1: he won some The other guys really weren't winning early

672
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: in the game. They did later on, but early in

673
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 1: the game they weren't, and I think Gallop was I

674
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: think that would they missed that? Yeah, I think it.

675
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: I think it's a testament to how good Gallup has

676
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: become and how much work he did. He just he

677
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 1: looks different out there. And I thought Devin Smith played fine.

678
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 1: I just looked it up. He had two catches for

679
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 1: thirty nine yards, and he has a role to play

680
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 1: and I like having him on this team. And they

681
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: obviously won. Credit to Dak. He still spread the ball around.

682
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 1: It's not like they missed Gallop so much that the

683
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 1: offense fell in the tank. But I'm really at the

684
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: risk of overreacting, like I think Gallop could be one

685
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: of the best number twos in the entire league by

686
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 1: the end of the season. We saw a progression, a

687
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: major progression from last year, and I think not seeing him,

688
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 1: we realized how much he truly has improved. I think

689
00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: I think Smith and Wilson played fine. I mean they're

690
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 1: obviously not to Gallop's level yet I mean maybe yet.

691
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if that'll just improve more chemistry with Dak,

692
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 1: maybe just getting more time with him. I will say

693
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: I am more relieved from what we saw on the backfield.

694
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously we knew that Zeke could hold his own,

695
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,239
Speaker 1: but also knowing that you have Pollard who you can

696
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 1: also use as a receiver, and you still have Cob

697
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: I'm not like shaking in my boots over the fact

698
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: that Gallup isn't ready. I think I'll miss him against

699
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:26,959
Speaker 1: the Saints secondary, but I think they I mean, they

700
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: can obviously still win matchups, but I Gallop just takes

701
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 1: this thing to another level in my opinion, which is

702
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: and the prognosis was two to four weeks. So I

703
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 1: get why people are asking, but he's not going to

704
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 1: be ready for this game, and I just I wonder

705
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: I can't see the Packer game either, I don't think so.

706
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 1: And that's again I get why people are asking, but

707
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: anytime somebody's cutting into your knee, I think you need

708
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 1: to use the longer timeline, Like it's never gonna be

709
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 1: if it's two to four weeks, I just don't believe

710
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 1: it's ever going to be two when you're literally surgery,

711
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: I just don't think that's real. Forget that, Like if

712
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:08,040
Speaker 1: they were a normal person likes especially for a position

713
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 1: that you know, relies on your speed, relies on your cutting,

714
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,359
Speaker 1: and you know, sudden burst and all that stuff, I

715
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,240
Speaker 1: just can't see that that's going to happen. But um

716
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: I will. I'll say another thing about why I think

717
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: he's taken it to another level with Gallop is that

718
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:27,399
Speaker 1: he's he's a well rounded receiver for a second year guy.

719
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 1: He's a deep threat, he's a he's an over the

720
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 1: middle guy. He shows toughness. He's been hit hard at times,

721
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 1: his hands have been he's had a bad ball catches

722
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 1: at times. Early in the game when Dak wasn't really on,

723
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 1: he was making some great throws just well in the air.

724
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 1: And he's doing all of the things except for scoring touchdowns.

725
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 1: He hasn't done that just yet, but I mean the

726
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 1: other guys are doing that. I just think he's very

727
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 1: well rounded and for a third round pick in his

728
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 1: second year at of Colorado State, to be like that

729
00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: is really impressive. And I think you have to give

730
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,800
Speaker 1: credit to the coaching and staff, and Sanjay was supposed

731
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 1: to be a great teacher, and I think you're seeing

732
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 1: that from him, not just coaching stuff. I mean, obviously

733
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,360
Speaker 1: credit to them, but he talks to a lot about

734
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 1: just watching Amari Cooper, watching him in practice, seeing how

735
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 1: he runs his routes. How can I make that work

736
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: for me? What is he doing to get open so

737
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 1: many times in games? And I think that's really cool too,

738
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: is they're working together and he's taking advantage and he's

739
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: just he's saying, you know, during practice. I just watch

740
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 1: Mari a watch and I learned from him. I can't

741
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,000
Speaker 1: believe Oakland wouldn't want him. I mean, I don't know

742
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 1: what was going on, don't know how much. I mean,

743
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: I was gonna say as good as Cooper is, like

744
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 1: did you see Mac last night? Like how did you? Yeah,

745
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 1: it's the NFL teams do so much stupid stuff in

746
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: the name of ego, and it happens here too. But

747
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how you chalk that up

748
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 1: as anything other than ego out there to not want

749
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: to just one, because no matter if you're rebuilding or not,

750
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: I'd love to rebuild around a guy like that. Now,

751
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 1: of course, they may be looking at it like, well,

752
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 1: you start thinking about salaries and all that kind of stuff.

753
00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 1: It's better to take lower salaries with guys that will

754
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: grow together than what you have to pay him. But

755
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 1: I just feel like, when you got a guy like that,

756
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: he's gonna make you. He's gonna get you at least

757
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: a couple of wins. Jet his ability will get you

758
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: a couple wins that you Otherwise we're not going to

759
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: get what were you going to say about Gallup? Well,

760
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I remembered an interview that Stephen Jones

761
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: did after the injury, saying that there were times that

762
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,879
Speaker 1: he's seeing guys with this kind of surgery come back

763
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,319
Speaker 1: a little closer than two weeks time frame than the four,

764
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: which is the only reason that it gave me some

765
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 1: some months of a possibility that he could be back

766
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,240
Speaker 1: closer to the two rather than the four. But again,

767
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: you just never know what those and what he might

768
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: be talking about may not be right wide receivers where

769
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:38,359
Speaker 1: you're running, you know, a half marathon every game, right

770
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 1: like that may be a difference there that he wasn't

771
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: necessarily accounting for. Jerry and Stephen Jones both said that's

772
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 1: it's just my personal experiences, Like I try to err

773
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 1: on the side of caution with that. I would be

774
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,959
Speaker 1: I think they play the Jets after the Packers. That's

775
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 1: the earliest that I would think he could come back.

776
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 1: But we'll see for the Jets game. Yeah, yeah, okay.

777
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 1: I also did have a questionnaire it's kind of on

778
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: the same topic from m Cactus. He says, are you

779
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 1: gonna keep rolling with six wide receivers on Tavon's back

780
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,359
Speaker 1: and healthy. How does that work when Tavon comes back,

781
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: He's expected to practice Wednesday too. Here we go, so

782
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 1: again we'll see it's not Wednesday. He hasn't practiced yet.

783
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. I mean, what would

784
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:22,800
Speaker 1: you move Cedric back down because Tavon can return and similar?

785
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 1: Now I would I mean, Cedric hasn't really given you

786
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: something where you're like, well, we can't play without Cedric, right,

787
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 1: and that's nothing against him, but I don't think he's

788
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 1: done anything that made you think, well, Tavon's back, Tavon

789
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 1: wouldn't be your return guy, right, what would you? I mean,

790
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 1: that's a good point, but then you know for what,

791
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: I mean, what are we moving him down for? I mean,

792
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,359
Speaker 1: who are you? Maybe you don't have to write that's true,

793
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 1: you know who? Yeah, you don't have to move Cedric

794
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: to get Tavon onto the field, So maybe you want

795
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,919
Speaker 1: to move up. Maybe that's your answer, right that maybe

796
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 1: they get your defensive linement up. We got we got there, Yeah,

797
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 1: may took a little while. We got there. If Tavon's

798
00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 1: if Tavon's completely healthy, I could roll with that and

799
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 1: that gives you the spot. I mean no disrespect to Cedric.

800
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 1: I think he's played well the last two weeks. But

801
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: Tavan's got that speed that makes him a weapon in

802
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 1: the offensive backfield. He can be one of your two

803
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: return men. And you need all hands on deck for

804
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 1: a game like this. I think you need to be

805
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,720
Speaker 1: able to throw as many different options at that defense

806
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 1: as you could possibly had have it. I think that's

807
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: just one extra one when you know at some point

808
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 1: Gifford's going to come back here. Yeah, and when he

809
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: done him doing rehab this morning, is he going to

810
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:34,439
Speaker 1: be active? So you know, I think you could get

811
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,240
Speaker 1: you could definitely get your ninth linemen on the team,

812
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 1: but can you get him active. We couldn't get Taco active.

813
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 1: You know, you couldn't get those guys active. So I

814
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know how that's going to work out,

815
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,320
Speaker 1: because once these guys started getting injured, it's going to

816
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 1: be tougher again to come up with these seven and actives. Yeah,

817
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see when when all these guys are

818
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:54,240
Speaker 1: injured are not injured, what happens at the safety position.

819
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: You know, we've talked about Donovan Wilson but is he

820
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 1: the guy that sawed man out as far as being

821
00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 1: active just because they're like, he can still grow into

822
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 1: the position. These other guys are playing force right now.

823
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,959
Speaker 1: It can't be as good as Cavon on special teams.

824
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 1: That's that's why Cavon's here. I could absolutely see him

825
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: being a healthy scratch, much to the consternation of his

826
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: rapidly growing fan base. All right, um, let's let's give

827
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 1: the second question here from your seven days from Twitter.

828
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 1: I don't know how much you guys know about this,

829
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: but he asked, is there any truth to the Jamal

830
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 1: Adams rooms? And really, let's kind of extend this out

831
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: a little bit more of just is this a situation

832
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 1: where this is even an option for the Cowboys based

833
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,640
Speaker 1: upon what they currently have and where they currently sit

834
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 1: with regards to their salary. Nobody wants El Presidente Lsu

835
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,879
Speaker 1: Tiger Jamal Adams to be here more than I do.

836
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,800
Speaker 1: But just for the record, he like he unfollowed the

837
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 1: Jets on Instagram actually and what? And then he went on.

838
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 1: Diana Raussini, the ESPN reporter, cleared up with him and

839
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: he's like, I've never followed them, which maybe that's a lie.

840
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: Maybe it's not, but like need more, I need more

841
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 1: substantiation to believe that that. I mean, Jalen Ramsey's literally

842
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:07,839
Speaker 1: out here being like I want to be traded. I'm

843
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: not coming in. I'm sick, and Jaell Adams hasn't done

844
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: any of that. Just to be clear, there is a

845
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 1: tweet from Jamal Adams that's circulating right now. It was

846
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 1: actually from twenty sixteen where he said something about the

847
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. He tagged the Dallas Cowboys and said something

848
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 1: like I'm going to check something out or whatever and

849
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: tagged the Cowboys. My understanding is app was a tweet

850
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 1: that happened a long time. There are very much resurfacing.

851
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 1: People are thinking, oh my god, yes, he comes to

852
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 1: Dallas all the time. He literally grew up fifteen miles away.

853
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 1: He's he comes here to work out. He's visited the

854
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 1: hebron team practices and stuff like he was the kid

855
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 1: that was playing when we went to that high school.

856
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 1: You and I watched him play senior in high school.

857
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 1: Really good in high school. Yes, he took over, but Dave,

858
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,440
Speaker 1: you know, following Alla shoes like that kid is going

859
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,880
Speaker 1: to LSU And I'm like okay, and then yeah, I

860
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 1: know y'all old, Yeah, that was that was my first

861
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 1: huh not me, Yeah, you're now oh the other the

862
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:10,319
Speaker 1: other the other thing he did, I forgot, um, he

863
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 1: got an I hate the fact that I know this.

864
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,359
Speaker 1: It's so lame. Like he got a new iPhone and

865
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 1: he took a picture of it and it was like

866
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 1: new number soon and he just so happened to position

867
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 1: he just so happened to position the phone next to

868
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 1: his tattoo of the Dallas Stars logo because he's from

869
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:31,480
Speaker 1: Dallas or was it? I mean no, it's not a mistake.

870
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:34,440
Speaker 1: But literally it could mean eighteen different things. What year

871
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,680
Speaker 1: is he in? This is his third season? Is third,

872
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 1: he's got two years left under rookie. This is the

873
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 1: guy that's been to the Pro Bowl one or two times?

874
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 1: One one time has he been? Was overall? Yeah, I

875
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:49,240
Speaker 1: don't think he was all pro. He's a good player.

876
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: He's really very good player. All right, would you do

877
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: a one for him? But again, he there's no proof

878
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 1: that he is seeking a trade. That's the thing that

879
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,439
Speaker 1: I'm because with Ramsey and Fitzpatrick, like their agents put

880
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,799
Speaker 1: that out there, right, This is just like would you

881
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: like to have a great player on your team, of

882
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: course I would. Yeah, do you want Tom Brady? Maybe? So? Yeah?

883
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 1: What are they asking? I mean, yeah, I'd probably give

884
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 1: up a first round pick and you get so you got.

885
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 1: I wouldn't you have as mini games left in this

886
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 1: season as so, sorry, thirteen games left, Then you got

887
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 1: him again next year, Then you got him again on

888
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 1: his fifth year option. So two cheap years and one

889
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 1: still kind of cheap year because safety salaries aren't crazy anyway,

890
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,920
Speaker 1: And then you know you're gonna probably be a definitely

891
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 1: in the lower half. I think of you know, anywhere

892
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 1: from sixteen to maybe twenty seven, twenty eight. If you

893
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 1: would do it for Minca Fitzpatrick, I don't see any

894
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,400
Speaker 1: reason why you wouldn't do it for the only thing

895
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 1: at this point is and this is not about Jamal Adams.

896
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 1: This is just overall, with all the money that the

897
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,959
Speaker 1: Cowboys are going to be shelling out here to these

898
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:51,279
Speaker 1: guys on these second deals, your life blow is going

899
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 1: to be the draft. You're gonna need to be able

900
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 1: to get some really good talent in here well cheaply true,

901
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 1: for the full five years, not for two years, for

902
00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 1: the full four or five years. True, you need that. True,

903
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,840
Speaker 1: But we just saw that when you pick twenty eight,

904
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 1: you could he could be on the street in two years. Yep.

905
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 1: But we also saw Travis Frederick. I understand, well, I

906
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 1: mean there're been other guys that have been late in

907
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: the first round that you hit on, right, So I

908
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 1: mean he's got a drafting. But see, that's why I

909
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 1: wouldn't want to trade for Jalen Ramsey because one I

910
00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 1: have to believe it would cost you multiple picks, and two,

911
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 1: you don't get that much time with him. It's just

912
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: like a Maria money's going up as Jamedia Adams gonna do.

913
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 1: What you know Zeke did is it might not even

914
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 1: get that fit that those two years about. You know,

915
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe he's gonna. I don't think Jamal

916
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,320
Speaker 1: Adams is good enough to hold out two years ahead

917
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,319
Speaker 1: of time. Zeke is like the only person that's maybe

918
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:40,839
Speaker 1: a year, but maybe a year, and then only you're

919
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:42,879
Speaker 1: going to get that one year for cheap. My whole

920
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:44,440
Speaker 1: point is just that you get I believe right now.

921
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:46,760
Speaker 1: I believe right now I need four to five years

922
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 1: in order to make it work with all the guys,

923
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 1: I have to pay. I need four to five years

924
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 1: on all those guys I'm bringing in. So I need

925
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 1: that first round pick because that first round pick is

926
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 1: gonna be my life. Blook. That's how I'm going to

927
00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 1: keep replenishing my team. I'm with you. I wouldn't give

928
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,240
Speaker 1: up multiple picks for him. Yeah, but I'd be sorely

929
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 1: tempted to do. Okay, okay, if he wasn't your LSU

930
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: guy would No. I'm definitely biased. He's one of money true,

931
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 1: but good point. Jamal Adams is one of my all

932
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 1: time favorite Tigers. Um. But okay, so you get thirteen games.

933
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,919
Speaker 1: Then next year, so you get twenty I can't do Matt.

934
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: That's twenty nine games. Get twenty nine games before you

935
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 1: have to worry about that. And then there's still the

936
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:29,799
Speaker 1: assuming he doesn't hold up, assuming he doesn't hold out early,

937
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 1: and then ideally if he doesn't hold out at all,

938
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 1: you get almost three complete seasons with him. I think

939
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:37,719
Speaker 1: that would be worth it. All right, We appreciate you

940
00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 1: guys for the record. He has not requested to track.

941
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 1: I'm just yes, we're not tampering. We're not talking about this. No,

942
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:45,399
Speaker 1: this is just this is just one of those fun

943
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,319
Speaker 1: conjectures to throwing stuff at the wall. Right. We appreciate you, guys, Jonas.

944
