It 13 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: seems like that was forever ago, but we're gonna break 14 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: it down for you. Guys. Are gonna tell you what 15 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: we thought of that game. Cowboys win twenty eight twenty 16 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,639 Speaker 1: over the Giants. We'll start with the story of the game, 17 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: but I do actually want to take it a little 18 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: different direction, specifically for you, Nick, because I thought you 19 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: had a really interesting article, uh last week coming out 20 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: of that game where you said you thought this was 21 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 1: actually an even more impressive win than the victory over 22 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings the week before. Explain, I do I 23 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: think that you're not gonna beat teams about thirty seven 24 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: points in the playoffs, um, and especially on the road. 25 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: It'd be fun, but but it's not gonna happen, especially 26 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: if it's Tampa. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're not. You're not 27 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: a five seats not gonna go and play a division 28 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: winner and do that. Um. Maybe if it's Minnesota, maybe 29 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: you mention, you know, you know that that's not gonna 30 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: happen again like that, And for whatever reason, they kind 31 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: of rolled over. The Giants don't roll over. They fight. 32 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: That's what they are. That's why they have the record 33 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: they do. And I just think that when penalties are 34 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: mounting up in your offense is struggling and you got 35 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: to figure out a way to turn the tide those 36 00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: that's what happens in the playoffs, and they were able 37 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: to do that. Was not pretty, but they were able 38 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: to do that. And I just thought that that type 39 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: of grind out game is what this team is gonna need, 40 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: you know, to be battle tested to win in the playoffs. 41 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: To me, is a little bit more impressive The Giants 42 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: have already seen you before, They've seen your tricks. They 43 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: haven't seen Dak and this offense is starting to bit. 44 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 1: They see plenty, they've seen more than they want to. 45 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 1: They're probably tired of Dack at this point. I mean 46 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, his first two losses were against the Giants. Yeah, 47 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: you know, sandwiched around like an eleven game winning streaks, 48 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: like he can't be the Giants. It's like, well, I'm 49 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: not losing them ever again. Ever. Yeah. Yeah, So I 50 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: have a story of game for you, Amber. I don't know, 51 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 1: I have a hard time agreeing with what Nick just said. No, 52 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: not to all of it. It's just to me, this game, 53 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: everything was in the Cowboys advantage and they couldn't get 54 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: out there and start strong like similar to what we 55 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,839 Speaker 1: saw him in Minnesota. I think that's super super key 56 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: to them. It's just be having an offense that can 57 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 1: start strong. And to me, when you look at everything 58 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: that like other players that were out that were hurt 59 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: from the Giants, this is a game they should have 60 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: gone in and dominated to begin with. The thing is 61 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: the Cowboys to me, a lot of the times, and 62 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: they do this a lot. They'll start off bad and 63 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: then they come in second half of the game played well, 64 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: and a lot of the times it not always works 65 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: in their advantage became Sometimes it's like too late and 66 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: you face teams for example, let's just say, just as 67 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: an example, I didn't think that game went down the 68 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: same way that I'm trying to use as an example. 69 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: But Green Bay, when you get someone like that that 70 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: can't finish you at the end of the game and 71 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: win in the last few minutes seconds of the game, 72 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: that's a problem. And a lot of the times the 73 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: Cowboys fall short in those types of situations. In this instance, 74 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: they were able to beat out the Giants, and they 75 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: had every reason too, but they play against a better 76 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: team that it's not the Giants, someone else. I don't 77 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: even know who to use, but whoever else. This is 78 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: a game that they could have easily lost because by 79 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: the time they kind of get their gears moving, sometimes 80 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: he's end up being way too late. Yeah, man, I 81 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: think you made some really good points, because to me, 82 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: it's like they turned the ball over three times in 83 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: the first half. If you think about the interceptions and 84 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: then the and then the turnover, run down down downs, 85 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: and you and yeah, I thought, you're really fortunate. I know, 86 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: I know in our situation. On the radio, I was 87 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: doing the halftime and I'm like, man, I'm grateful you're 88 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: only down seven in this one right now for where 89 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: it's at. But the thing that, the thing that that 90 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 1: you have to like it looked like a team that 91 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: had played three games and four it's gonna be three 92 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: games in twelve days, and I and sometimes you just 93 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: have to survive these games. Sometimes you just have to 94 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: survive the matchup. Sometimes you have to take advance age 95 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 1: of the you know, of the other team being really 96 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 1: beat up and hurt and all that, and you know, 97 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: to Ambar's point, you know, I just you've seen this 98 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: team start out fast. You have seen him start fast 99 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: and being able to kind of get things together and 100 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: get it going. And then at other times you know 101 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: they're then they're falling behind and you're just kind of like, well, 102 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 1: what's the deal? Why why can't Why is there? And 103 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: I think it's all about the consistency, and I think 104 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 1: they lack it. I think they I just feel like 105 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 1: that at times it's like, you know, you have better 106 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: players than them, and you don't you know, you don't 107 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: do enough early to to kind of to take their 108 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: will away in this football game. I mean, you encourage 109 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: like the Giants to stay around in this game, you know, 110 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: and maybe this team plays to a little bit of 111 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: the level of the teams that they play. I you know, 112 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: to me, what's so disheartening as you wake up today 113 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: and you're the only team in the NFC East that 114 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,679 Speaker 1: didn't beat the Packers. You know, it's stuff like that 115 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: that when you look back on it, well, man, they 116 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: should have won that game, should have won this game. 117 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: Oh hell, they beat Minnesota. I mean, I just think 118 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: the consistency or the lack of u is a problem 119 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: for this football team right now. But yeah, I will 120 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: say this, and I saw a lot on Twitter day 121 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: the day of the game. There are a lot of 122 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: fans that agree with you Amber that, Man, here we go, 123 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: this team again. They can't really handle prosperity all those 124 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: kinds of things. But I just as I watched and 125 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: I sat and watched football all day yesterday, And when 126 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: you watch the NFL, that's the NFL. Like, I don't 127 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: care who you are, I don't care how good you are. 128 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: The Kansas City Chiefs are gonna have those Sundays where 129 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: it's just not clicking. They find a way to win 130 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: like they did yesterday, like yesterday, and they did right, 131 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: and they found a way to lose. But the point 132 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: is it's close, and I don't think I don't think 133 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: fans always appreciate just how close the NFL is. You 134 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: got three or four teams that are really really bad. Okay, 135 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: I'm not saying the Texans are in the category with 136 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: all these other teams. There are a few teams that 137 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: are just really really bad. There are one or two 138 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: teams that are really really good everybody else the margin 139 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: between them is very, very slight. And so from that standpoint, 140 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: I look at it and I kind of agree with you, Nick. 141 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys did what they needed to do. 142 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: They didn't have it early on, they had some mistakes 143 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: early on, they figured it out, they figured out how 144 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: to gut out a win that to me is is 145 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: just as valuable so as not. So this is before 146 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: your time a little bit. But but you guys remember 147 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: the game. I mean, it's all about perspective. Did you 148 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: think Tony Romo had a good game against the Bills 149 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: back in oh seven? Figured out Winter said that was 150 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: the best game he's ever played. He had five interceptions, 151 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: he lost a fumble, they rallied, they figured out a way, 152 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: they rallied and won the game by one um. And 153 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: and so it was it's all about perspective. It's and 154 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: you know, and and we sell this stuff about teams, 155 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: you know, cowboys not starting fast, and they don't because 156 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: I tell you who doesn't start fast instant that's the 157 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: other team like that. I don't think we're downplaying. That's 158 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: a pretty remarkable feat that they have not given up 159 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: a first quarter touchdown this year. I mean that's eleven quarters. 160 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: Think about just any game eleven quarters without giving up 161 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: a touchdown. I mean that's that's almost I mean that's 162 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: what almost three games. It's almost like the forty nine ers. 163 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: Yeah right, yeah, I mean you're talking about this week 164 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers. That they have eleven forty nine ers, 165 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: they haven't given up a touchdown in the second half 166 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: in the last seven games or something. That's amazing. Shut 167 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: out a team this weekend. So yeah, who's their quarterback again? 168 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: Who was quarterback in the Saints? I mean, I don't 169 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: know it was. It was Dalton, Andy Dalton, Dalton, Yeah, 170 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: there there Saints are trying to give the Philadelphi Eagles 171 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: the first overall pick in the draft. They're trying, they 172 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: they really are trying hard to do that for I 173 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: don't know why they are. They are right, yeah, they're saying, 174 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: and the Eagles don't need a quarterback. No, they're not 175 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: gonna get what's gonna happen. I know this is down 176 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: the road talk. Eagles will move that pick and get 177 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: another first round pick for the next year, and they'll 178 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: just keep They'll keep rolling it, keep rolling it, keep 179 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: rolling it into two exactly exactly. Somehow they figure out 180 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: how to how to make that work. No, hey, let's 181 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: be honest. You know, it's a game. We all thought 182 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys would win, you know, even no one 183 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: going in about all the things. It's just too you 184 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: know it it is you know when you when you 185 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: talk about how this team is able to kind of 186 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: flip it in the second half or they or a drive, 187 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: they're able to flip it and then it's able to 188 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: to you know, make plays in the second half, and 189 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: you're it makes you wonder. You're you're kind of going like, okay, 190 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 1: where was this earlier? Where was this? Why wasn't Why 191 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: was it the start like this? And maybe it has 192 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: something to do with the im Like I mentioned, you know, 193 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:53,239 Speaker 1: three games in twelve days. Sometimes it's just you don't practice. 194 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: You don't me personally, Dak running around checking everything. I 195 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 1: know he said dummy calls and all that stuff like that. 196 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 1: Honestly felt like he was trying to get him in 197 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: the best play possible with no practice. I think he 198 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: probably was looking at the offense and like going, Okay, guys, 199 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: this is what I know we can do, you know, 200 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: And this look right here, I'm gonna guys. He's moving 201 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: guys around, he's checking, he's doing all and you're kind 202 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: of like, man, this just looks more than normal. And 203 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: I'm stre thinking d and practice all week. He's just 204 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: trying to get him in the best damn play they 205 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: can to run, you know. So, I mean there's a 206 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 1: lot that goes in. Maybe that's one of the reasons 207 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: why they didn't start very quickly in this game, is 208 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: because they just don't practice very much for this Thanksgiving 209 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: Day game. Now, looking at that just to me and 210 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: I want to make sure and a thousand percent credit 211 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: to them for being able to come back into the 212 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: second half and finishing the game the way that they did, 213 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 1: giving the ridiculous amount of penalties that they had. I 214 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: don't even know what the total was at the end 215 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: of the game, but it was way too many. My 216 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: thing is, my problem is right now with the Cowboys 217 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: is that sometimes it feels like they take two steps 218 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: forward and then one back. You're still ahead, you're still 219 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: moving forward, but it's like it's never again. And I 220 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: think that's the one word that people are using when 221 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: describing the Cowboys right now, is that consistency aspect of 222 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: the full things. Can they be consistent enough to kind 223 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: of keep repeating the same type of game week after week? 224 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 1: And that's the biggest problem is that when you see 225 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: Minnesota that game is like perfect, and you're not. You 226 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: can't expect the game to go like them to play 227 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: like that every single week. That's not exactly but at 228 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: the same time, it's not necessarily realistic. But then again, 229 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: it's just little aspects of the game that you're like, Okay, 230 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 1: you did this, and then now you step back again, 231 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: and it's just that that consistency part of it that 232 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: it's just very frustrating, especially again when you look at 233 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: everything we talked about during the week, what the Giants 234 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: currently were heading into that weekend, you should have just 235 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: if they beat the Packers, they figure out a way 236 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: to win that in overtime. Do you think that they're 237 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: nine and two? You think the Cowboys are nine and two. 238 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: I think they beat the Packers and then beat Minnesota 239 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: and the Giants you're thinking you're thinking that, Yeah, you're 240 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: thinking that maybe they split the I don't think so. 241 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: They split the they split the Green Bay Minnesota games. 242 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: Something like that. Motion matters, And I think the way 243 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: they came back and beat Minnesota was a reflection of 244 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: the last week in Green Bay. And I think if 245 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: you tell Aaron Rodgers you're gonna go one and three 246 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: in the NFC East, He's gonna be like, well, we 247 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: better beat the Cowboys, you better beat Mike McCarthy. I mean, 248 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: I think there's a reason why, you know, I mean, 249 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: they certainly not get in Jordan Love in the second 250 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: half like the Eagles got. I mean, I mean, that's 251 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: just the way, that's just the way it's gone. Yeah, 252 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't I don't think that they I 253 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 1: don't think they destroy Minnesota if they beat Green Bay 254 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: I just still think they beat Minnesota just because I 255 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: think Minnesota is a great matchup for the Cowboys yea, 256 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: and not a great matchup for Minnesota. I think that 257 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: was that was a game. Just you know, most people 258 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: don't understand that what you just said. I really think 259 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,599 Speaker 1: that the fans don't don't think about what even and 260 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: I'm just fans think about it. Like in the media though, 261 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: who's top five teams at the NFC, You're like, for who? Right? For? 262 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I'll tell you, I don't know 263 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 1: where Washington ranks on this list, but Washington is a 264 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 1: bad matchup for a lot of team. Yes, they don't 265 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: let you run the ball. Washington in San Francisco are 266 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: the two teams I think are the worst matchups of 267 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: playoff FFC teams for the Cowboys. And they don't have 268 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: the best record in the end. No, And that's and 269 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: that's the problem that I believe that the Commanders have 270 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: won two games now on the goal line defending the 271 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: goal line. I think they beat the Bears defending the 272 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: goal line, and I think and they just went and 273 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: they and they beat the Falcons. So they've won two games. 274 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: Having to like it got down to the point I 275 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: was listening to the game driving around and I'm sorry, 276 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the Commanders here. It got down to 277 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: the point where the Atlanta announcers are like going, you know, 278 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: maybe they'll let you score, you know, And then you're thinking, 279 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: because you're you're riding that line of like do you 280 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: let them score to get the ball back with a 281 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 1: minute to go and all that, and then you're like, hell, no, 282 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: play defense and see play defense led to an interception. 283 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 1: You know. I will say this about the Cowboys, though, 284 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: can something they are consistent at and that's getting penalized, 285 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: That that part of it. I don't think that will 286 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: ever change. I don't think that'll change the presnap penalties 287 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. I mean, concentrate you talk about 288 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: it all the time, you tell you mean, you could 289 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: talk about it. You could have officials, you could stop practice, 290 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: you could yell at everybody, you can make everybody run laps. 291 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: This team will continue to be the most penalized team 292 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: in the league. It just will. I mean, we you know, 293 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy, you can honestly hear the frustration in his 294 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: voice after the game when he was when he's talking 295 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: about it, and it's something that every time it's like 296 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: he's probably going, what more can I do? What more 297 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: can I do to stop this team from being penalized? 298 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: And I think that's I just think we need to 299 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: stop talking him. No offense to you, Ember, but I 300 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: think that that this they're just not it's not going 301 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: to change. It's just not gonna And that's fine. I mean, no, 302 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: it's not fine. But and we see them and in 303 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: every game usually there's something and I'm not saying that 304 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: it's gonna go complete little wait when, but when you 305 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: see this specific game back to back, it's like again, 306 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: here we go again and again, and it was just again. 307 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: I don't remember how many there were, but it just 308 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: seemed ridiculous the amount of times that he happened and 309 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: the amount of times that he happened back to back 310 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: to back. So that was in that aspect, it's just like, 311 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: what can you do at this point? I guess, I 312 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: mean how much they had I want to say it 313 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: was four false starts, yeah, this game, and there were 314 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: a lot of holding calls, which going to game, Nick 315 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: was awful. Boy, I know, but Nick, you mentioned before 316 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: the game you said that this crew is a crew 317 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: that is notoriously like they are the most one of 318 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: the most. They are one of the most punitive teams 319 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: when it comes to calling penalties. They call them all 320 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: the time, and they call a lot of them. So 321 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: we went into the game thinking this was going to 322 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: be a heavily yeah, and then you had the Giants 323 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: had seven. So yeah, it was very similar. Yeah, it 324 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: was seven. It was very similar to what we saw 325 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: last year on Thanksgiving. Or it is just penalty after 326 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: penalty after penalty. So and I do agree the false 327 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: start one is the one that are pre snapped. Dallas 328 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: has to clean it up. The holding calls, it becomes 329 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: a matter of those are kind of calls to me 330 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: that are about um, you know about it wasn't really 331 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: hood like it's a it's a it's a call that's 332 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: that's not necessarily black and white like a false start is. 333 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: And I would venture to say, just from my perspective, 334 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: about half of those holding calls, I'd be like, ah, 335 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if I necessarily great. Giants had a 336 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: really bad penalty on them. The legal man down field 337 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: was kind of questionable. That was questionable, But the one 338 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: that saved you saved the drive for the Cowboys was 339 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: CD over the middle. They called defensive holding, and they 340 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: called it really late too, and when the receiver doesn't 341 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: even complain. Every receiver complains about getting hold, uh you 342 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: know held or you know pi and he didn't. He 343 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: was walking off the field like it was fourth down. 344 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: And then that they called. They called a hold at 345 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: the start, which that was questionable. So both teams got it. Well, 346 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 1: usually you had seven of the was it twenty penalties? 347 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: You had seven of the twenty penalties were resulted in 348 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 1: the first down for the other team. So, I mean, 349 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: that's just one of those days where the refs did. 350 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 1: They wanted it, Like I say all the time, they 351 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: wanted mom and they wanted mom and dad to see 352 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: I'm ref in the game. Well Thanksgiving. They wanted to 353 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: be a part of the Yeah, they want to be 354 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: a part of the story. So it is what it is. 355 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna take our first break. When we 356 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: come back.

Welcome back. It 403 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 1: is a second segment of the Break Life in SWBC 404 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: Mortgage Studios. At the start, the segment brought to you 405 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 1: by blockchain dot Com, I'll talk about Dak Prescott. He 406 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: was twenty one of thirty uh son, I'm sorry Thursday, 407 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: seventy percent completions, twenty two hundred and sixty one yards passing, 408 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: two touchdowns, two interceptions, a ninety one point one rating. 409 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: How would you characterize his play overall that day? Which half? 410 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: You gotta do it as one as one whole? How 411 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: do you how do you characterize he played? You know, 412 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: in the second half, I thought he threw the ball 413 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 1: really well. He had some nice throws in there, and 414 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: he let his receivers go make plays. I mean those 415 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 1: receivers had to help for some of those penalties. We 416 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 1: just talked about five yards here and there, and Schultz 417 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: bails him out with the nice catch in the back 418 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: and the CD. I thought CD had an outstanding game, 419 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 1: better than the numbers show because of all the penalties 420 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: that he drew. I thought Dak had a good game. 421 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: But in the first half, though, there obviously was a miscommunication. 422 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: He thought that that was going to be a false 423 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: a free play with a defense Tibadeau jumps in into 424 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: neutral zone. He should have got the college one that 425 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: Novak and then clearly missed. Yeah it wow, the one 426 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: they met. Yeah, so I think he no, he clearly 427 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: missed that. That that the line Judge two decide. It 428 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: was on this Cowboys bench. Cowboys were screaming and you know, so, yeah, 429 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: you think you're going to get the free play out 430 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 1: of that one for sure? Yeah. Well, I mean it 431 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: wasn't It wasn't his best game, but he cleaned it 432 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 1: up in the second half. You know, had a couple 433 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: of those turnovers and three or four possessions out of touchdown. Yeah, 434 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: it's pretty impressive, you know what. I to me, I'm 435 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,360 Speaker 1: all about getting Michael Gallop going anyway we can here, 436 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,120 Speaker 1: you know, And I think early in the first half, 437 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: some of the sketches that Michael Gallup was able to make, 438 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: I thought were really some nice ones going to get 439 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: in the football making some adjustments the route running stuff 440 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 1: like that. And Dac, you know, as long as he 441 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: can reward those guys for running great routes and throw 442 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: the ball where it needs to be thrown, you know, 443 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 1: I'm all about that. I thought. You know, when you 444 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 1: look at the receivers overall, though, like I say, with 445 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: Gallop with Lamb and the way that they're able to 446 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: play that that that to me is just a real positive. 447 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: And these young tight ends, we can go on all 448 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: day about them. But you know, Dak, it's great when 449 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: he can throw the ball the guys that are open. 450 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: And you know, there were a couple of plays that 451 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 1: were contested plays that guys may catch. I mean, Gallop 452 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: made a catch along the sidelines for a big play 453 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,400 Speaker 1: when Dak was sprinting too, you know, sprinting on the outside. 454 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: They blocked Nolah Brown on the edge and it's you know, 455 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: they're gonna it's really one of those rpo kind of 456 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 1: throws and he's running to his right. It's a tight 457 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: window throw and he makes it. Gallop does a great 458 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: job of not letting it get on him. That's what 459 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: always complained about is that ball getting on Gallop and 460 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: kind of getting knocked up in the air. But man, 461 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 1: he went out, kind of got the hands up and 462 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: stuff like that. So Dak put him on, put it 463 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 1: on his receivers in this game, it was it was 464 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,679 Speaker 1: good to see it that way. Yeah, I think this 465 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: is just kind of Dak. I mean, that's just good 466 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: old Dak and the way that he plays. But the interceptions, 467 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: I was just looking at them again to get a 468 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 1: reminder of how that looked. And I mean on both 469 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: of them, he didn't necessarily it wasn't necessarily his fault really. 470 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: I mean on the first one to Gallop, he I 471 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: we could see. I don't know if it was maybe 472 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: he threw it a little too earlier, gallup just wasn't 473 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: quick enough and him turning around and all that. And 474 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: then you look at the one with ceed Lamb and 475 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: that was a pretty contested ball, but it was more 476 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: on CD than I would say got Dak, and it 477 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,439 Speaker 1: was just very well protected. Like the Guyant Stephens did 478 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 1: a good job. You're absolutely right about that. Holmes made 479 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: a great play on the ball. He got around and 480 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: knocked it in the air. The problem was that Tyler 481 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 1: Smith was in his lap when he threw the ball, 482 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: and and and people said, oh, you're defending Dak. No, 483 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: it's hard to step and throw a football when your 484 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: offensive tackle is right there and you've already broke your 485 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: damn thumb, you know on a play earlier in the year. 486 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: You know, with a guy in your face, you know, 487 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 1: it's so for him to step up and have to 488 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: make that throat. Yeah, it was. It was a little tight. 489 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: I mean they're there, like we caught that cover two 490 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 1: look and you know they're the safety's both go wide 491 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: and then you know you get the other one come back. 492 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: It's like they go wide and then they come back 493 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: at Holmes knocked the ball in the air. Man. I 494 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: mean he made a good play. He just turned around 495 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 1: and he contested the ball. It's tough throw, tough play. 496 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: But but also on that throw when you watch it, 497 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 1: Dak can't step and throw because he's got Tyler Smith 498 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: sitting right in his lap. Yeah. Final two minutes of 499 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: a half and Dak the CD over the middle Nothings 500 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: Barras intern backers interception and then this one. I mean 501 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: the Vikings, I mean they can do you know, they 502 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: didn't anything they want. This is one Mike needs to 503 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,439 Speaker 1: say as soon as as soon as Kelly brings it up. No, 504 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: no, no no, no no. Right now, when you when you 505 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: watch that there right now, when you see the all 506 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: twenty two, you see why Dak made the throw because 507 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,719 Speaker 1: the safeties do go wide and there's going to be 508 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 1: a hole right there. Again, the problem is this was 509 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 1: this was a tough game for Tyler Smith. I mean, 510 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 1: Thibodeau came to play for the Giants and I was 511 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: talking to the Giants personnel before the game and they're like, listen, 512 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: Thibodeau has just been okay, and then all of a sudden, 513 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 1: it's like, oh, tiboo looks a lot better than okay. 514 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,479 Speaker 1: Had five quarterback hits. Yeah, he was a factor, and 515 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: they had problems with the twist, they had problems with 516 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: you know, he had problems with late blitzes. Maybe it 517 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: was one of those things again, no practice, you're out 518 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: there playing, you're your rookie. Wait a minute, this guy 519 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: blitzes forty eight percent of the time. What am I 520 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: doing out here? Kind of a thing and not making 521 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 1: excuses for the kid. But it wasn't one of his 522 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: better games. There at Tyler Smith for sure. But you 523 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: know what I really liked about Dak is that despite 524 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: those two interceptions in the first half, I mean, they 525 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: didn't shy away from keeping like throwing the ball and passing, 526 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 1: and they were really successful in the second half in that. 527 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: So that's an aspect that I think he did a 528 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 1: really really nice job that he's the type of player 529 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: that he s tastes very mentally there where he needs 530 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 1: to be. But also in Kellen Moore trusting him in 531 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: his arm and not deciding to Okay, let's just kind 532 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 1: of stick to the run and just run the ball. No. No, 533 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: they did a really nice job in balancing the game 534 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: and just trusting the passing game. This pipe for somebody. Yeah, 535 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: for a team that blitz us like the Giants too, Yeah, 536 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: to trust the passing game in that situation says a 537 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: lot about the confidence they have in Dac. There was 538 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: an interesting moment in the first half actually was in 539 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 1: the first series. At the end of the first series, 540 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: Cowboys have the ball, they're moving it, okay, they're at 541 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,679 Speaker 1: their own forty and then they decide on third and 542 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: two they're gonna throw the ball deep in completion. Then 543 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 1: on fourth and two, they decide to go for it. 544 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: How do you like that decision? Was that the right 545 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: decision in your opinion? Obviously not the right decision when 546 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 1: he gets stopped. But third and two, I mean it 547 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: comes down to I mean, you know, I deal with 548 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: this too. I watch college football, you know, I'm just like, 549 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 1: if you that look of exasperation, Yeah, if you're gonna 550 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 1: if you decide what you're going to do, I just 551 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: feel like third and two, if you're going for it 552 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 1: on fourth down, I just don't think they're gonna stop 553 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 1: Zeke twice. Right, I don't believe that, you know, are 554 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: they're not gonna stop kJ twice or whatever it is. 555 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: But whatever whoever your team is, you're not you know, 556 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 1: that's really what you want to see. In first place, 557 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 1: you get go ahead. But it's the offensive coordinator and 558 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 1: the head coach beat on the same page saying all right, 559 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 1: we're going for it here and then just looking at 560 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: it and go. And I don't think third and two 561 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: is this free play where you can just throw it 562 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: deep and then fourth and two you can get it. No, 563 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 1: fourth and two is tough. It's a two point conversion. 564 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 1: That's tough. To get, so cut it in half or 565 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: get it, you know, spread them out on third and 566 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 1: two and then run the ball. Maybe you get a yard. 567 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: Maybe if you get stopped for two yard loss, then 568 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: you can punt it. But I didn't like the call. 569 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: I didn't like the third down call. If you're going 570 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 1: to go for it on fourth down, yeah, My thought 571 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: on the third down two is like, if you're gonna 572 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: if you're gonna pass it, I still want to take 573 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: a higher percentage pass play. Don't give me a fifty 574 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 1: fifty ball on a third and two. If I knew 575 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,159 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go forward on fourth down. For me, I'm like, 576 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 1: give me a ball that I think I can convert. 577 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: If I don't, then I'll go for it on fourth 578 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: and two. But that's if you want to pass. But 579 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: I agree with you running it twice. I feel like 580 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: most teams, the Cowboys can convert that. Yeah, a fourth 581 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: and if you give them two downs to get two yards, 582 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: I think they can do it on the ground if 583 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 1: they do it with Zeke. There are a couple of 584 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 1: fourth down plays in that game that could have been 585 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: big plays. The one that the Giants missed on was 586 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: a big play too. That they're through the Barkley man. 587 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 1: That thing could have gone for a touchdown. Ye, I 588 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: mean they were, they were. Dallas was in trouble on 589 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 1: that call. The Giants had a lot of moments. Oh no, 590 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 1: they did. All right, you're looking, you're looking, look out. 591 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, the thing about it was I think on 592 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: the fourth and two they're gonna probably get it. The 593 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: problem is that hinder shot man like that's this is 594 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: a tough one because I'm thinking, if you watch the 595 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: way the play was blocked, if he blocks down on Smith, 596 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: they're probably gonna run in behind it, it's gonna be 597 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 1: a first. Instead, he blocks wide and he let it 598 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: and let Smith have a free run at you know, 599 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: at the ball carrier. So if he just goes down 600 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: inside and lets the furthest guy from the ball free. 601 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,479 Speaker 1: We've seen Zeke a thousand times take the ball and 602 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: fall forward for two yards. But it was one of 603 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: those like you're thinking, Okay, was it a bust or 604 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: was there something going on here? I mean it made 605 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: me question because you don't let a guy inside, You 606 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: don't let the linebacker Smith just have a free run 607 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: on that play. You just don't. I don't miss that 608 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 1: guy at all. Y'all see the play? Yes, where how 609 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: did he not get flak for that? Smith? And if 610 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: you just you kind of watch the whole play, not 611 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: just not just the flying in the air the people's elbow. 612 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: He runs around here, he hits nobody, then he just 613 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: runs over here and like the play's over. I don't understand. 614 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: Maybe one of the best games he's played this year. Yeah, yeah, 615 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: and there was some moments in the games, moments, Okay, 616 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: Jalen's got a little something. We've heard a lot his 617 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: name a lot. I think more than what were you? 618 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: He's always flying. I just don't want to. I don't 619 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: understand the thought process for him when he runs into 620 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: a pile and just basically jumps in with his elbow. 621 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: I don't get that. But I also don't understand how 622 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: a crew that's penalizing everything besides nah, that's good that 623 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 1: that that's football right there, Like it just didn't make sense, 624 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: you know what. The thing about it is like old 625 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 1: Krusty got like me didn't like going for it there 626 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: because just because the fact that don't give the giants 627 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: and encouragement, don't give them any reason to you know, 628 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 1: punt it back, make them drive, maybe they turn over 629 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: the ball and then you get the ball. I'm not 630 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: helping the Giants in this game. They don't have any blockers, 631 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: they don't have this, they don't have that, they don't 632 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,719 Speaker 1: have any real wide receivers. I mean, I'm just sitting there. 633 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: I'm not doing anything to help them. I'm not giving 634 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: them the ball right there, you know, in case something happened. 635 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: But you know, he's gone forth four on fourth down 636 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: like that and made it every single time. So I've 637 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: just kind of kept I just go, well, this is 638 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: what analytics and stuff do that people say fourth and one, fine, 639 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 1: fourth and two. I'm like, I don't know, man, I 640 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 1: don't know if especially we're not going to block the 641 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: you know, maybe they thought, hey, we don't have to 642 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 1: block Smith, he won't make the tackle. You know, maybe 643 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: that's we know him. Yeah, maybe that was the thought. 644 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: It's like, it's like the NBA three point guy, Hey, 645 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: don't cover him, you know, don't worry about him shooting 646 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: over here. He's not gonna do anything. Well, let's be honest. 647 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: I actually like the fact that Mike McCarthy is aggressive 648 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,719 Speaker 1: when it comes to fourth downs. I want him I 649 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: just didn't love the play call on third down. If 650 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: you didn't, if you know you're gonna go for it 651 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: on fourth, we'll see. They tried to on the previous play, 652 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: they tried to go max protection and it kind of 653 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: got a little the pressure. They got pressure on him, 654 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 1: so they tried to leo max in order to set 655 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: it up to try and get the home run like that. 656 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 1: Yeah they did, yeah, first Giants, Yeah, exactly, exactly. Yeah, 657 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: they tried to go max and set it up and 658 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: it didn't work. And and so now you're like, okay, 659 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: fourth and two, do you punt this? Now, let's go 660 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: for it. We'll find we're good here. You know, I'm like, okay, 661 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: which I think once I get to that point, I 662 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: probably do punt. But go ahead. Amber. Now you said, 663 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,959 Speaker 1: why do you that if you know you're gonna go 664 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,959 Speaker 1: for it on fourth down? I guess that's something I 665 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: never really thought about that much. But how far how 666 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: much in events? Like how many plays ahead are you thinking? 667 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: If you know? Well, I mean, and that is I 668 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: think every every coach when you're getting to third and short, 669 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 1: they're probably having that thought process. All were gonna go 670 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: forward here on fourth because that does influence the kind 671 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: of play that you should call on third down? Yeah, 672 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: you know, you're gonna go forward. On to your point. 673 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: The Green Bay game where they went forward on fourth 674 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 1: down at the end of the game and had it 675 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 1: really a bad play, McCarthy clicked over, he said, He 676 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: told the media, I clicked over on second down, and 677 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: since you got two plays, yeah, so that helps Kellen 678 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: in his mind think, Okay, I got two downs. I 679 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: got two downs to pick up this two yards. You know, 680 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: I've got two downs. I got to figure this out, 681 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: you know. And so that's usually when they click over 682 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: the he'll say, hey, I'm gonna go forward, year, have 683 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 1: two plays ready, and then that kind of lets me 684 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: know that put that back on Kellen of your running 685 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: the ball on them. Leek Davis is running the ball 686 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: on them, so as Pollard, of course, why why is 687 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 1: not one of those are running? Yeah, you know, that's 688 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,239 Speaker 1: that's what's frustrating. Back to that game. But all right, 689 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 1: we're gonna take our final break. We'll come back. Let's 690 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: talk about the defense.

Like the Only Beer of 737 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. Let's talk about the defense. They held 738 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 1: the New York Giants in ninety yards rushing a four 739 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: point three average. Uh. Sequon Barkley was held to eleven 740 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: carriage for thirty nine yards three point five yard average? 741 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: Have they solved the defense? Have they solved it? Is? It? 742 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: Is it done? Is that a done topic? Can we 743 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,880 Speaker 1: wait till next Monday? Jonathan Taylor come? Yeah? And a 744 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: team that's committed to it like that? Yeah, I think 745 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: I think they're I think they've gotten better. But also 746 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 1: the game and the scores kind of dictated that. But 747 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,919 Speaker 1: they did a nice job with Barkley. I thought they Yeah, yeah, 748 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 1: they really really did that. It's it's tough to deal 749 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: with him. Uh. And you know when no one that man, 750 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 1: I mean, and the quarterback didn't kill him either in 751 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 1: this game too. That's one of some of the things 752 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 1: I thought the best chance for them to win the 753 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 1: Giants to win this game was for Barkley to get 754 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 1: like one hundred and fifty and then maybe Daniel Jones 755 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 1: having to rush somewhere between eighty and one hundred yards themselves. 756 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: You know, I didn't think that they could drop back 757 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 1: and throw the ball and be effective enough. But they 758 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: did a great job of you know, and there were 759 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 1: times where Barkley got screen passes and stuff like that 760 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: and they never let him get going. I mean, Layton 761 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 1: vander esh played really really well in this football game. 762 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 1: I mean, he he was on point, you know. I mean, 763 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,720 Speaker 1: he his responsibility getting to Barkley, getting him on the ground. 764 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 1: You know, there were times there where like it was 765 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: a you know, a third down play, they throwed a 766 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: bark on the screen. It keeps him a yard short. 767 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,319 Speaker 1: You know, they have to paunt. You know, those are 768 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 1: the kinds of things that you know when you're playing 769 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,800 Speaker 1: against a back. I mean, this guy had like a 770 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: well over I think twelve hundred yard scrimmage yards coming 771 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: into this game, and you know, so you always worry 772 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: about that. But for him, the only average three and 773 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 1: a half yards that carry I'd say that was a 774 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:43,879 Speaker 1: big win for the Cowboys. Yeah, there was a play 775 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: where h vander Esh got blocked and yeah, got knocked 776 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 1: off his off his point, you know a little bit, 777 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 1: and he still recovered and made the tackle short of 778 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,919 Speaker 1: the first down. I remember, and that happened. I feel 779 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 1: like it happened a couple of times where you know, 780 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 1: he was locked but still you know, fought off the block, 781 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,800 Speaker 1: made the play. I mean, anytime he's howling, you know, 782 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 1: anytime they got that going on, you know, it feels 783 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 1: like forever ago when that was happening. I mean, it 784 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: is kind of strange to think, you know, just what 785 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: four years ago and him and Jalen are together and 786 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,720 Speaker 1: they're thinking, these are the two best linebackers in the league, 787 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 1: you know, and they're gonna be paired up forever. And 788 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 1: then four years comes by and Layton we thought was 789 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: going to leave, and Jalen was cut and Mica Parson's 790 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: linebacker or whatever, he's the best in the league. It's 791 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: it's just weird how things can change kind of quickly. Well, 792 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 1: you know, and if you go back to Vanderish too, 793 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: and I was looking at my notes, there was a 794 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 1: time when in the game. It was a third down 795 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: play where they where he was in coverage and actually 796 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: they were too deep and he went deep middle. I 797 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: mean he carried the inside guy all the way up 798 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: the middle and you could see Daniel Jones is trying 799 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,320 Speaker 1: to throw the ball in the middle of the field 800 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: and but Vanderish is so deep on the play in 801 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: coverage that Jones just has to throw it away. That 802 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: mean the play was called and that just shows you. 803 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he's playing around the line of scrimmage, he's 804 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: making tackles, he's getting off blocks. I mean on the 805 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 1: on the goal line play, jumps over the pile, makes 806 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 1: a tackle there. You know, times it perfect. You know, 807 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 1: that's just kind of what Layton vander ess. This is 808 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: a kind of game that's perfect for him. You know. 809 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 1: It's they're gonna run the ball, are gonna try and 810 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: run the ball, you know, and he's gonna have to, 811 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: you know, be playing a physical style of the game, 812 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 1: which he very well did. Do you guys feel any 813 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,919 Speaker 1: better about Dallas's ability to stop running quarterbacks? They hold 814 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones the only three carries fourteen yards. I think 815 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,359 Speaker 1: there's two part to that one that she held into 816 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 1: only running three times, which means he didn't see a 817 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: lot of open lanes to be able to run and 818 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 1: in fourteen yards on the times he did run. How 819 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:43,239 Speaker 1: do you feel about that? I feel I'll tell you 820 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,439 Speaker 1: what I did. You know, there was remember the play 821 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,279 Speaker 1: that Dallas got her and on in week three where 822 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 1: that where Jones they're gonna run the RPO going to 823 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 1: the left and he sprints out and then there's the 824 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: like the tight end was over in the flat and 825 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: he throws I mean they like digs adjust to him, 826 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: it comes up and he throws the ball all in 827 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: the flat. They tried the same play and Dallas defended 828 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: it perfectly, and because you know, Jones could have run 829 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: and no he had and now he's like, oh wait, 830 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:10,840 Speaker 1: I can't run and he just had to throw the 831 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,439 Speaker 1: ball away. That just shows you, though, when you're playing 832 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: these RPO teams and stuff like that, that you after 833 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,759 Speaker 1: you see him one time, you kind of see their 834 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: best play. Then you're like, okay, this is a down 835 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: and distance that we could get. And sure enough they 836 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 1: try to run it where he sprints out, they're on 837 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: top of him, he tries to throw it. It's incomplete 838 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: because they had it covered. So those are the types 839 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 1: of now I think that's what. You know, the first game, 840 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,479 Speaker 1: he killed them running the football. This game, they didn't 841 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: allow him to get going running the football because of 842 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: the way they were playing in lanes and the way 843 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:43,719 Speaker 1: the linebackers were playing, in the way they were playing 844 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 1: in coverage. Running quarterbacks with some dynamic receivers, I think 845 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 1: that that could be a problem. I mean, I think 846 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 1: with the way those receivers that the Cowboys don't have 847 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 1: to do a whole lot other than just cover them. 848 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: You know, they don't have to put a lot of 849 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,360 Speaker 1: his own defense all that kind of stuff. But problem 850 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,879 Speaker 1: is when you face like an Eagles team that has 851 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 1: those receivers on the outside, and then they're going to 852 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: have a tied end that will be back probably, you know, 853 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,359 Speaker 1: probably for that game. And then of course you've got 854 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 1: the running back and the running quarterback, which we saw, 855 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: I mean I saw last night. I mean there was 856 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: a play last night early in the game where they 857 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,280 Speaker 1: they send the running back in motion and the linebacker 858 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: just comes flying with them and you're like you they 859 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 1: just snapped the ball and hurts. It has like a 860 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: lane to run like forty yards. You know, like exactly, 861 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:27,799 Speaker 1: we did exactly what we wanted to do. We got 862 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:29,840 Speaker 1: your linebacker out of the way, and we go and 863 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 1: make plays. So when you have a lot of weapons, 864 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 1: I think that's what I'm trying to say. When you 865 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: have a lot of weapons, it is going to be 866 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: a lot harder for the Cowboys. Okay, stop the running quarterbacks, 867 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 1: have the running back, stop the two guys. You know, 868 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 1: something they will have to figure out Dallas defensively, is 869 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 1: what's going on with with Anthony Brown because he you know, 870 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 1: he gave up the big play and he could have 871 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: given up another big play the first I mean you 872 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 1: look at the yeah four two yeah, yeah, exactly he 873 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 1: I mean that's and teams are attacking him. Teams are 874 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:01,760 Speaker 1: they're staying away there there, it's like, let's go after 875 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown here. So you're gonna have to figure something out, 876 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,239 Speaker 1: whether it's the shade of safety. And I thought on 877 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 1: the long pass play that they completed it down to 878 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 1: the one. I thought that Hooker was late, but when 879 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 1: I watched the tape, Hooker couldn't have done anything about that. 880 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 1: The ball was just really well thrown and Anthony's just 881 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 1: going to do a better job of playing the ball 882 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 1: in the air. I mean, he's just he's he's like 883 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 1: he's losing track of it and stuff. But they're going 884 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 1: to continue to attack him. Do you guys think that 885 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 1: the plays, the big plays that he does give up 886 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: outwaits Like I guess, I don't know if I'm saying 887 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 1: it backwards, but there are a lot of other plays 888 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: that I watched him and I'm like, oh, wow, that's 889 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 1: pretty good, you know, and it just reminds me of like, Okay, 890 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,320 Speaker 1: well that's the reason he is where he's at, you know. 891 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:47,959 Speaker 1: So it goes back and forth. I was like, Okay, 892 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 1: he does give up these big plays, but at the 893 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: same time, he does protect the ball like some good plays. 894 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 1: So which one does one outwits the other? Right now? 895 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: I think personally, you can't be giving up forty four 896 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,800 Speaker 1: yard passes, I mean, like one on one, Like I 897 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:08,240 Speaker 1: understand there's gonna be some great throws and these receivers 898 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 1: are big time, but you're gonna play better receivers than 899 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,839 Speaker 1: what you played against the Giants. And I just wonder 900 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: if somebody's just gonna load up and say he can't 901 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: play the ball down the field and now all of 902 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 1: a sudden, Dallas is playing great defense, and all of 903 00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 1: a sudden they get it, they need a big play, 904 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 1: and then they launch one on him. That's the things 905 00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 1: I worry about, you know, in these games. Well, but 906 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 1: I think saves him a lot is not many teams 907 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 1: will get a lot of deep throw opportunities because this 908 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: pass rush is so ferocious. That's that's that's what saves him. 909 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 1: That's ultimately, that's yeah, and he's not going up against 910 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: a lot of number one because Diggs has got it right. Yeah, 911 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: So maybe the teams the Eagles, maybe yeah. Yeah, But 912 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 1: that's that's the tough part of this thing is or 913 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 1: the good part for the Cowboys is you can't hide 914 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of deficient secondary play because your pass 915 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 1: rush is so good. I mean, what are you gonna do? 916 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know that. I'm just saying this. 917 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 1: Maybe the safety. Maybe it's one of those things where 918 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:03,359 Speaker 1: you're like, listen, Digs is so good. You don't gonna 919 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 1: play the safety in the middle of the field. We're 920 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 1: gonna say, we're gonna shade the safety over. So at 921 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 1: least you give Hooker the chance to have a run 922 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 1: at it. You know like I thought, I thought Hooker 923 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 1: was no help when Slaton when he caught the ball. 924 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, Hooker's got to get over. And then when 925 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 1: you watch on tape, it's like the route in the 926 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 1: middle of the field kind of holds him for a second. 927 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 1: And Hooker's not the quickest guy. He's just not and 928 00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 1: so that's a problem. But maybe you have to shade 929 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 1: him over to that side just to give him a 930 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 1: little bit better opportunity to make a run to help. 931 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,240 Speaker 1: All Right, we appreciate you, guys, Jonas. We'll be back tomorrow. 932 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 1: We'll start looking at the big picture of what's happening 933 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 1: around the NFC right now. All the teams in the 934 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:43,280 Speaker 1: NFC EA star in the playoffs as of this moment, 935 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 1: and we'll talk about that in a couple other topics. 936 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 1: We'll do that tomorrow. Till then, for Nick even Brian 937 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: brought us Amber Garcia. I'm Derek Eagleton.
