Speaker 6: into the Buffalo defense versus the Cowboys offense. Depending on

18
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 6: how the show goes, we might have time to talk

19
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 6: a little bit about playoffs. We might get into that

20
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 6: here at some point, and what all has to happen

21
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 6: for Dowan Glint maybe maybe, And and really the big

22
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 6: question i'ma have for you guys, and we're going to

23
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 6: talk about either today or tomorrow, is the question is

24
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:14,199
Speaker 6: Philadelphia broken?

25
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 2: H Because I think that's gonna be interesting this weekend.

26
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 6: They got an interesting matchup where we're about to see

27
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 6: if they really are broken with Seattle or is it

28
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,320
Speaker 6: just they had two tough games against two better teams

29
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 6: and that's what we're seeing. But we'll talk about that

30
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 6: maybe a little bit later in the show.

31
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 2: Let's start first.

32
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 6: I want to talk about some injuries. Malie Cooker did

33
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 6: not practice yesterday with an ankle injury. There were lots

34
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 6: of people that were listed on the injury report, but

35
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 6: that's the one that stood out to me.

36
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: What do we know about Malik and his ankle?

37
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 7: Asked around about it, doesn't seem to be any concern

38
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 7: with it. Sounds like it was a rest day for

39
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 7: Milie Cooker, just as it was for all others. However,

40
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 7: his was in fact injury related, so you couldn't list

41
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 7: it as NI R on the injury report. So we'll

42
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 7: see if that holds true today when n I are

43
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 7: not you. Yeah, we'll see if that holds true today

44
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 7: with a full practice being undergoing by all these guys,

45
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 7: and these guys should be returning. So if at three

46
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 7: pm when the injury report pops up for Thursday, if

47
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 7: Malie Cooker is still there and D and P I

48
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 7: mean if he's limited, it still goes to rest and

49
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 7: kind of making sure he's ready for Sunday. But if

50
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,519
Speaker 7: he's DNP again, then it would raise an eyebrow. But

51
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 7: it doesn't seem like a lot of concern right now.

52
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 6: If they ever didn't have a game with if they

53
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,239
Speaker 6: ever had a game when Malie Cooker couldn't play, is

54
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 6: it Janye Thomas the guy that would step in, who

55
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,399
Speaker 6: would step in that free safety.

56
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 8: The guy that has the best range, best coverability. Yeah,

57
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 8: you probably put him on the back end. I think

58
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 8: that would be the best plan of attack. That way,

59
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 8: you can keep Wilson and then cursing those guys down

60
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 8: low where they played better.

61
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 3: So yeah, I.

62
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 8: Think Thomas is a guy that you never I'd never

63
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 8: shy away from putting him in coverage. Yeah, he's super competitive.

64
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 8: He's got some corner skills to his game. You know,

65
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 8: you would have to see if you know, how he

66
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 8: sees the field and stuff like that. You know't ever

67
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 8: want to get trapped back there, you know, going the

68
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 8: wrong direction or making the wrong read. But man, the guys,

69
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 8: you know, he plays as your personal protector on the

70
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 8: punt team. So the aptitude, the smarts, all those things

71
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 8: are probably lined up for you right there.

72
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 5: Ye. Well, he's great. That's why I would drop back there.

73
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 7: I mean, he's got all the physical abilities, the quickness,

74
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 7: the football IQ, the tackling ability and willingness to tackle. Obviously,

75
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 7: what you'd be losing there over Malee Hooker is you

76
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 7: have to wonder how more easily deceived he would be.

77
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 7: One yea from a guy like Josh Allen and you know,

78
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 7: a veteran offense for coordinator. But as far as skills

79
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 7: setting football like Q concerned, je yay is there.

80
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it does concern you a little bit, Brian. Yes,

81
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 2: so you mentioned this offense.

82
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 6: They'll try to fool you so well, so you get

83
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 6: a little less experienced than that could put you in

84
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 6: a compromise position in some instances.

85
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about a few guys from the

86
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 2: Buffalo team.

87
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 6: There are four guys that were on their injury report

88
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 6: that popped out to me, and I really want to

89
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 6: get an idea of Obviously we are not there, so

90
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 6: we don't know the extent of these injuries, but certainly

91
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 6: from the standpoint of what it would mean if they

92
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 6: don't have these four players. Uh, let's see what what

93
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 6: what what do you think, Brian Uh defensive end AJ

94
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 6: Panessa huge rib injury?

95
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 3: Huge?

96
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's a big that would be a big problem

97
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 8: because what's happened is von Miller's you know, playing less

98
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 8: and less for them, and so now you've got Greg

99
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 8: Russo at Oliver and Panessa in the way that he's playing.

100
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 8: And yeah, he tried to play in the game, he

101
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 8: got his ribs hurt in the Kansas City game, tried

102
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 8: to come back into.

103
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 3: The game and then you didn't see him anymore the

104
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 3: rest of the way.

105
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 8: That one sounds like in the podcast I did with

106
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 8: the Buffalo guys and talking to some people outside of Buffalo,

107
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 8: that would be a big, big loss for them.

108
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: How about a safety Micah Hyde with the next stinger.

109
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, Micah Hyde's been doing with this now.

110
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,679
Speaker 8: He had surgery on his neck in September of last

111
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,799
Speaker 8: year and it caused him to miss the whole season.

112
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 8: It's had It's happened to him twice. It's very similar

113
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 8: to what Leyton Vanderish deals with. And so uh, you

114
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 8: know that's something that if he doesn't play in this

115
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 8: uh in this game, and that his replacement that in

116
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 8: that particular situation would be who.

117
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,359
Speaker 3: Did I have down here that they had? Who did

118
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 3: they move?

119
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 8: I'll get to it on my notes here, but but yeah,

120
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 8: it's one of those things that that Oh it's Taylor Rapp,

121
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 8: the veteran Taylor rap used to be at the Rams,

122
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 8: and so Rapp would take his spot, but that would

123
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 8: be a that would be a significant loss for him

124
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 8: as well.

125
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: How about a cornerback Tarren Johnson with ankle?

126
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 8: Yeah, Tarren Johnson is that's their nickel and so but

127
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 8: I've got a plan for how to attack Tarren Johnson

128
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 8: in this game. I think even if he's playing, even

129
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 8: if he's playing, I think this is where this is

130
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 8: a guy that has problems with speed, and to me,

131
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 8: now the matchup turns into how do you get Brandon

132
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 8: Cooks in the slot more to have to deal with

133
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 8: somebody that's dealing with an ankle, but also struggles with

134
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 8: guys that can really really run. So that to me

135
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 8: was a matchup that I was looking.

136
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 5: At right there.

137
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 2: And then tight end Dalton Kincaid rookie, that's.

138
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 3: A big play for them too. They've got the two ends.

139
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 8: Him and Dawson Knox are two really good players, and

140
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 8: you know that with with Kinkaid, it's down the field

141
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 8: that we mentioned, you know, how would you deal with

142
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 8: I feel like that they're okay dealing with the Buffalo receivers.

143
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 8: We'll see with Diggs and how they play him. These

144
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 8: tight ends, though, are really capable players. Not I wouldn't

145
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 8: call them great blockers, but.

146
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 3: I would call them those guys that try.

147
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,799
Speaker 8: They try and create mismatches with athletic ability.

148
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,559
Speaker 3: They are very reliable catching the football. They have huge

149
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 3: catcher radius.

150
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 8: For both guys, so that that would be not having

151
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 8: not having Kincaid would would be be significant for them.

152
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 2: All right, So let's jump in.

153
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 6: Let's talk about this Buffalo defense versus the Cowboys offense.

154
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 6: I'll start with a big picture question. If you had

155
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 6: to define one player on that defense that you would

156
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 6: say is the most should be the most concerning for Dallas,

157
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 6: who would that player be.

158
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go with Leonard Floyd.

159
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 7: I think Lynn Floyd can be a game wrecker, and

160
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 7: the Cowboys are familiar with him from having played him

161
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 7: frequently over the course of his career.

162
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 5: You know, but when you talk about somebody who's.

163
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 7: Coming in with nine and a half sex, he's the

164
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 7: heartbeat of that pass rush with the Buffalo Bills. And yes,

165
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 7: von Miller contributes in a major way as well, so

166
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 7: does up in necessary. I mean that they have contributors

167
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 7: up there, but it feels like it goes as Leonard

168
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 7: Floyd goes. So if you can figure out a way,

169
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 7: or not necessarily figure out a way, but if you

170
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 7: can win your matchup against Leonard Floyd on that offensive line,

171
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 7: then that's going to give you a huge leg up

172
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 7: to helping to neutralize the pass rush and then from

173
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 7: there you can try to attack that secondary.

174
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, I would say that that Floyd makes a lot

175
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 8: of sense. I worry about Greg Russo going against Terrence

176
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 8: Steele in this football game. And you know that because

177
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 8: the way that the way that Russo brushes you as

178
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 8: a passer, he covers a lot of ground. His first

179
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 8: two steps are like really long and all of a

180
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 8: sudden now and the one thing that Steal has had

181
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 8: over the problem is if guys.

182
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 3: Can get the corner on him, can he get over quick.

183
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 8: Enough to push that guy past, uh, the past the

184
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 8: quarterback in the pocket and stuff. Uh you know his

185
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 8: uh it's it's you know in the way he fights

186
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 8: you too. The hand fighting, the way he gets kind

187
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 8: of breaks guys down. I I do worry about that

188
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 8: that matchup there. Ed Oliver would be a guy in

189
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 8: defensive tackle that you should be concerned about. But the

190
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 8: problem but the problem with that is that Ed Oliver

191
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 8: is going up against two of your better blockers. When

192
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 8: you start to talk about Smith and then you talk

193
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 8: about Martin, and you know, those are your two inside

194
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 8: players right there. That and Oliver's leading the team and

195
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 8: and pressures and and you know, and and he's really

196
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 8: good at defending the run.

197
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 9: Uh.

198
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 8: Coming out of Houston, he was an undersized guy that

199
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 8: was worried about how light he was. But he plays

200
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 8: that three technique under tackle outside shoulder of the the

201
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 8: guard and then he works his way up the field.

202
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 8: But I feel like the Cowboys matchup pretty well dealing

203
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 8: with him with the two guards russo uh.

204
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 3: And then as as you mentioned.

205
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 8: Floyd, that's a little bit different story, especially if they

206
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 8: could they find ways to get them over on steal.

207
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 8: Even though Steel's playing pretty well though, there's always that

208
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 8: you worry about those those those those other moments.

209
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 10: Yeah, I wouldn't point out a specific player, but like

210
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 10: you guys mentioned I think the d line as a

211
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 10: group as a whole, they're really good with four man pressure,

212
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 10: with rushing the passers. So I would say, if there's

213
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 10: any area and Brian, you're about to break it all down.

214
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 10: But if there isn't an area, it would be just

215
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 10: the defensive line what they do all together.

216
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 8: Well, you're absolutely right, you know, that's their their whole thing,

217
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 8: Their whole game plan is based on. They really rely

218
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 8: on their four man front to carry the day because

219
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 8: they're one of the best. They don't blitz a ton

220
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 8: and you could watch and I went back and I watched, Okay,

221
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 8: sort all the blitzes.

222
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 3: For me, there were five in a game, you know,

223
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 3: and you're like going, oh wait, And as you.

224
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 8: Watch the Cowboys sort blitzes, there's you know, there's twenty

225
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 8: seven blitzes that you know, and some teams are.

226
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 3: Really good at it.

227
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 8: But here's a team that could put a lot of

228
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 8: pressure on you with the four man line, the third

229
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,199
Speaker 8: in the league in sacks, and that's what they do.

230
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 8: They rush you with four and they have to rush

231
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,479
Speaker 8: you with four because if you look at their secondary,

232
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 8: their secondary gives up a lot of space. When you

233
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 8: watch them play zone coverage. There are a lot of

234
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 8: open guys tight window throws. They're one of the worst

235
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 8: in the league when it comes to tight window throws.

236
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 8: You could see it on tape. You know Rashul Douglas

237
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 8: out there. We're all familiar with his game from Philadelphia.

238
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,439
Speaker 8: He's bounced around a couple of times. But if their

239
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 8: four man rush doesn't get home or you pick up

240
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 8: the blitzeres when they do, their secondary gets put into

241
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 8: a world of hurt because they find ways to not

242
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 8: cover the guys as tightly as they need to.

243
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting.

244
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:49,839
Speaker 6: What jumped out to me is I noticed that they

245
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 6: are four man team the vast majority of time, twenty

246
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 6: fifth in the league, and blis percentage. They don't blitz

247
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 6: very much at all. Here's an interesting thing. And you

248
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 6: mentioned the sacks the third in sacks fifth and sacks percentage,

249
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 6: so they're getting.

250
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 2: Home at a rate that's that's up there at the

251
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 2: top of the league.

252
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 6: Here's the interesting part though, when you look at just

253
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 6: their pressures, they're all the way down at fourteenth in

254
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 6: the league as far as their pressure percentage when they're

255
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 6: in a four man front, So it's almost like they

256
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 6: don't always consistently get pressure, but when the efficient they

257
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 6: get home, they get home, they make the sack. Does

258
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 6: it also like it also suggests to me that maybe

259
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,559
Speaker 6: they don't get consistent pressure enough. Is that what you're

260
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 6: saying on tape, is that they're not consistently getting pressure,

261
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 6: but when they do they get home.

262
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is.

263
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 8: It's It's one of the things I watched, like the

264
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 8: couple of games where the last two games where it's

265
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 8: Philadelphia and then also then this Kansas City game, and

266
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 8: when when they don't get home, like I said, it's

267
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 8: a problem for them because their secondary just can't hold

268
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 8: up long enough in the back end.

269
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 3: And so you you know, if you find a way to.

270
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 8: Block these guys and they've got they've got legitimate I mean,

271
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 8: they've got legitimate pass rushing. It's very similar to what

272
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 8: the Cowboys do with the way that they play their

273
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 8: and you know, you get four man but you get

274
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 8: four man games, you get the twists and get picks

275
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 8: and all these things like that. So they know how

276
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 8: to get those guys home. But when they don't, you

277
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 8: do see completions, you know, And that's that's the thing.

278
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 8: If Dallas goes into this game with the idea this

279
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 8: is going to be a game. In my opinion that

280
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 8: the running backs of the Cowboys are going to be

281
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 8: huge in this game. And I'll tell you why because

282
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 8: the ability to be that extra blocker to help on

283
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 8: the four man rush. But also though this team, when

284
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 8: they do rush or they do blitz, which could be

285
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 8: occasionally it's slot pressure or its secondary pressure, they use

286
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 8: their linebackers and coverage is what they do. So now

287
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 8: you're dealing with safety pressure or you're dealing with slot pressure.

288
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 8: So Tony Pollard and rico'doudle when they look they're usually

289
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 8: keying off linebackers. Now you have to be ready for

290
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 8: the pressure that comes on the outside of that. Okay,

291
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 8: where's that safety walking up and coming from? Where's that

292
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 8: slot player? Because they'll run the safety over the top

293
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 8: to cover a slot blitz and they'll try and catch

294
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 8: it up much like when the Cowboys used to do

295
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 8: it with Orlando Scandric Yeah, you know, like he would

296
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 8: line up tight to the line and then all of

297
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 8: a sudden come flying down and nobody would ever blocking.

298
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 8: They try and do the same thing. But how Pollard

299
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 8: and doubt will pick up actually help on four will

300
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,559
Speaker 8: be key in how they pick up extra any extra

301
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 8: blitz that they might see in this game. But they're

302
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 8: gonna need to get pressure because the problems.

303
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 3: That they have.

304
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 8: It's not a secondary to me that it's like as

305
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 8: bad as like what they've seen with the Giants and

306
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 8: some of the others back in the past, but you

307
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 8: see completions on them, and just because of the space

308
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 8: that they give up.

309
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 7: It'll be interesting to see how the Cowboys attack the

310
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 7: linebacker call, like you mentioned right, because of the twelve

311
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 7: interceptions that the that the Bills have, five of those.

312
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 5: To their linebacker corl.

313
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, their cornerbacks and their safety their safeties one or two,

314
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 7: but their cornerbacks aren't good with taking the ball away.

315
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 7: It's also a defense that you mentioned they play zone.

316
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 7: They'd love to play zone. Almost eighty one percent of

317
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 7: the time they're playing zone.

318
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 5: Now.

319
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 7: Of course you go back to week five and the

320
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 7: team can try to flip that on you high forty

321
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 7: nine ers, but Dak Prescott is playing at a different

322
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 7: level right now as far as it really doesn't matter

323
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 7: if you're going to do zone or man, he's going

324
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 7: to attack it. But the reason they go to zone

325
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 7: is because they don't have a lot of confidence Without

326
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 7: Trey Devis White on the field, don't have a lot

327
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 7: of confidence, so they give that space to try to

328
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 7: protect their guys. But in doing so, the Bill secondary

329
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 7: is allowing one of the worst completion percentages in the

330
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 7: entire league. It's over seventy percent, almost seventy one percent.

331
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 7: So the play, yeah, so the players are going to

332
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 7: be there, the catchers are going to be there to

333
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 7: be made. And also of I think they're at twenty

334
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 7: nine hundred yards allowed passing yards allowed, roughly fifteen hundred

335
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 7: of that is yack. So not only are you able

336
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 7: to make passes and get catches against this secondary, but

337
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 7: they'll give up the yards after the catch as well.

338
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 7: And then you look at what Ceedee Lamb and Cooks

339
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 7: and and Jake Ferguson can do in that capacity. I mean,

340
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 7: it's a favorable match for the Cowboys if, like Brian said,

341
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 7: you can stop that front four and if that means

342
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 7: you have to you know, tast Tony Pollard and Rico

343
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 7: Dalde with helping on the rare occasion they do blitz,

344
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 7: then do so. But yeah, there's lunch to be had

345
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 7: for Dak Prescott all.

346
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 8: Right, smart, Yeah, they're small at linebacker, and that's why

347
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 8: teams have had some success running the football at these

348
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 8: guys a little bit. And that's what you kind of

349
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 8: have to do with. This might be a game where

350
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 8: Dallas tries to run the ball a little bit more.

351
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 3: Matt Mulano out for them.

352
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 8: That injury that he suffered in Week six just really

353
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 8: crush this linebacker crew. He's really good at playing the

354
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 8: pass and playing the run. And so they've struggled now

355
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 8: with some of their size at linebacker and people have

356
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 8: taken advantage of that. And by the way, I just

357
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 8: got to report that Hooker should be available for this game,

358
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 8: so don't worry about him.

359
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 2: Awesome, Great, all right, we're gonna take our first break.

360
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 6: When we come back, we'll talk a little bit more

361
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 6: about some strategies maybe that we might see from Dallas

362
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 6: offensively when it comes to taking advantage of the sees

363
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 6: wide open targets, as well as the running game where

364
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 6: they can maybe take advantag of the run. This run

365
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 6: defense that may be a bit undersized. We'll talk about

366
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 6: that when we come back. This is Dallas Cowboys dot

368
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 11: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the cheatah.

369
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 11: Savannah Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought online

370
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 11: was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be faster

371
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 11: than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

372
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 11: But the good news is Todd has AT and T

373
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 11: five G. It is fast, reliable and secure, and he

374
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 11: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

375
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 11: toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and

376
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 11: T five G. Fast, reliable, secure, It's not complicated.

377
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 12: Five G requires compatible plan and device five G may

423
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:37,439
Speaker 5: All right, here we go.

424
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 6: Let's we're diving back into the Buffalo defense to kind

425
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 6: of give it some context. We were talking about the

426
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 6: wide open nature of what they give up in the

427
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 6: passing game. They are seventh right now, and the most

428
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 6: attempts allowed to wide open talks about twenty five percent

429
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 6: of the time when you got to pass attempted against

430
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 6: this defense, the receivers wide open.

431
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a lot, that's a quarter of the time.

432
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 2: That's a ton.

433
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,479
Speaker 6: And then when you think about the pass rushing and

434
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 6: what they can can can really create some some challenges

435
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 6: from the pass rushing standpoint, It makes me wonder if

436
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 6: this is a game where we should see at least

437
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 6: early a lot of the quick passing game just so

438
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:18,679
Speaker 6: you can get the ball out, because it looks like

439
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 6: they're gonna have some open targets. There are opportunities for

440
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 6: you do, especially if you're scheming guys. My question is,

441
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 6: is the quick passing game what we should expect to

442
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 6: see much more than just their kind of the deep

443
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 6: ball as much as this game?

444
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, I would say so, I think that you want

445
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 8: to you know, to me, they just they don't have

446
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,399
Speaker 8: the quality at corner that most teams have. And I

447
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 8: mentioned Rashuel Douglas, Christian Benford. You know, he's a guy

448
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 8: that's a second year player and you know he's kind

449
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 8: of feeling his way right now.

450
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 3: They really just don't have that. They don't have anybody

451
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 3: that could really shut anybody down.

452
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 8: I mentioned about Terran Johnson though, you know with the

453
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 8: nickel he's he's struggled at times. So they just don't

454
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,399
Speaker 8: have that one guy that can walk over there and

455
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 8: take your best guy. And so yeah, anything to anything

456
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 8: to alleviate just you know, any type of pressure holding

457
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 8: the ball against these guys, I think is a terrible idea,

458
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 8: you know, just because eventually these guys, one of their

459
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 8: three guys is going to win. You know that that's

460
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 8: just the way that they that's the way they They're

461
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 8: able to rush the passer. But somehow, you we've talked

462
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,480
Speaker 8: about this full before. If you could block the front,

463
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,479
Speaker 8: they blocked the front in Philadelphia and what happened. You

464
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 8: have passing game involved, you know, so if you can

465
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 8: handle pass rush with your players, then your receivers are

466
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 8: much better than what these secondary guys are, So anything

467
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 8: quick or you know, maybe even really normal passing game,

468
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 8: because because if they're going to play a ton of

469
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,360
Speaker 8: zone on you, I mean, every every time I looked

470
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 8: up and was watching them, you know, there was just

471
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,159
Speaker 8: so much space. So when the ball gets out, you

472
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 8: know that the things that affect is there. Like I say,

473
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 8: their their pass rush can't affect you control that though

474
00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 8: you can make some plays against these guys. You've heard

475
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 8: me say that.

476
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,200
Speaker 2: Before when you talk about the pass rush.

477
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 6: Just to give people a perspective, this front four, would

478
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 6: you say it is comparable to San Francisco? Would you

479
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 6: say it's more like Philadelphia?

480
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 3: It's which one.

481
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 8: It's more like Philadelphia, but more like Philip more like Philadelphi,

482
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 8: well different than Philip like Philadelphia with the edge, different

483
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,199
Speaker 8: from the inside players because ed Oliver can rush from

484
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 8: the inside. I don't think Philadelphi mean Fletcher Cox and

485
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 8: they got those big body guys and they just pushed

486
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,400
Speaker 8: the front. Ed Oliver's got some wiggle to his game.

487
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,199
Speaker 8: He's got some quick maybe a bunch like what we've

488
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 8: seen like with the when the rams with with Aaron Donald,

489
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 8: that kind of you know, when you have that quick,

490
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 8: three technique guy.

491
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 5: Yeah.

492
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 3: So yeah, So that's.

493
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 8: That's kind of where you're at with this team, because

494
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 8: they've got a legitimate defensive tackle that can rush, and

495
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 8: they've got two legitimate edges that can rush. So now

496
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 8: you've got three guys that are involved. The other guy

497
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 8: for them is more of a push guy. But you know,

498
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 8: when you play Philadelphia, it's really two guys and big

499
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 8: bodies trying to push in the middle.

500
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,679
Speaker 6: There have been games here in the last thing, and

501
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 6: you know, when we look at the like the pre

502
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 6: the first five games this season and then the posts

503
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 6: after that and how Dak's been playing, there have been

504
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 6: some games where Dak has been on this stretch where

505
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 6: he's playing phenomenal football, well, he's been under pressure.

506
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 2: And still been able to make it work.

507
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,719
Speaker 6: So my question becomes like, is this really a problem

508
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 6: for Dallas, because it seems like Dak is being able

509
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 6: to operate even when he's under pressure. Although the offensive

510
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 6: line has played pretty well in most of these weeks,

511
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 6: even when he's under pressure, Dak still has a way

512
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 6: of making plays, playing a.

513
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,199
Speaker 8: Lot better with his feet, you know, and he understands

514
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 8: where when things do break down, just immediately take off

515
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 8: and run.

516
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:41,399
Speaker 3: Don't try and hold.

517
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 8: The ball and you know, and and and make a play.

518
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 8: Just take off running and play for the next down.

519
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 8: Get your six, seven, eight, ten yards whatever you're gonna get,

520
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 8: get down and go for it. So yeah, that to me,

521
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,919
Speaker 8: that's Dak is dealing with pressure just fine.

522
00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,080
Speaker 3: You know, Like I said, hopefully, hopefully the pressure is

523
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 3: it to.

524
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 8: The point where it happens quick and now they're on him.

525
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 3: That kind of thing. That's that's what I would worry

526
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 3: about writing this game.

527
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 7: I said, get like you said, Derek, I said, get

528
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 7: the ball out quick, get your guys in rhythm. Lamb Cooks,

529
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 7: Jake whomever else, trping Michael Gallup. Get those guys out

530
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 7: and get them running early. Put the secondary on their heels,

531
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 7: kind of help neutralize to pass Russ frustrate those front

532
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 7: four pretty early. And you know, when you look at

533
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 7: a guy like and we talk about uncommon opponent, but

534
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 7: then you look at the roster and see who who

535
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 7: are common opponents.

536
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 5: Within the roster.

537
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 7: Rasseuo Douglas, he's won from the time he spent with

538
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,679
Speaker 7: Philadelphia he was there from twenty seventeen through twenty nineteen.

539
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 7: Seven times he's played against Dak Prescott, it's been awful. Yeah,

540
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 7: he's had in those seven games one interception, one pass breakup.

541
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 5: That's it in seven outings.

542
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 7: So if you're Dak Prescott, you got to be looking

543
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 7: your chops to say, okay, well, when we move ceed

544
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,360
Speaker 7: Lamb to the slot, that's Russello Douglas.

545
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 5: Douglas.

546
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 7: We're eating cooks in the slot, turping in the slot,

547
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 7: we're eating So in that type of situation, it's all

548
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,160
Speaker 7: all the more reason for you to drop back, get

549
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 7: the ball out quickly, and then I mean the big

550
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 7: players are going to develop themselves. You just have to

551
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 7: establish the rhythm early. Especially in a hostile environment like

552
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 7: Ultra Park.

553
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 6: You mentioned that the running game has had some challenges,

554
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 6: particularly because these linebackers are a little undersized. Is there

555
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,679
Speaker 6: a particular area of the defense where you've noticed their

556
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 6: most vulnerable to the outside, to the inside. Yeah, like

557
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 6: where if teams had a lot of success running the ball.

558
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 8: Dallas has done a good job and they've tried to

559
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 8: run the ball in a lot of different ways. Now

560
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 8: they're not just it's not outside zone stuff all the time.

561
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 8: They've done the crack toss stuff. They've done it's just toss.

562
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 8: They've run the jet sweeps. Those plays are all going

563
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 8: to be good in my opinion. To me, I would

564
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 8: try and do things that are misdirection plays. You know,

565
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 8: the Cowboys ran a double screen the other day, which

566
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 8: you know tells me they're trying to affect to get

567
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 8: guys to move, to get guys out of the way.

568
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 3: This linebacker crew, they're small and they want to run.

569
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 3: They don't want.

570
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 8: To play toe to toe with you, because if they

571
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 8: play toe to toe, they.

572
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 3: Get swallowed up.

573
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 8: So to me, if anything is how quickly you can

574
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 8: secure down guys and then get guys up on the

575
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 8: second level and effect there because Philadelphia was able to

576
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 8: do that a couple of different times. Kansas City was

577
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 8: able to do that couple different times. You get them

578
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 8: going one way with the read and then all of

579
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 8: a sudden, you get them to commit and now the

580
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 8: ball's coming back the other way. So Dallas, we've seen

581
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 8: Dallas with their ability to play that way in the

582
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 8: running game to be able to affect the lineberyer with flow,

583
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 8: getting like the motions, quick motions to get the linebackers

584
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 8: to step and then take the ball behind them. And

585
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,120
Speaker 8: that's the problem that because when these guys get hooked up,

586
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 8: they don't get off blocks very well at that linebacker,

587
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 8: especially that second level.

588
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 6: Let's flip over and talk a little bit more about

589
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 6: this Cowboys offense. They have had their four lowest point

590
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 6: totals this season when they've been on the road. That

591
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 6: would be sixteen points at Arizona, ten points at San Francisco,

592
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 6: twenty points at the Chargers, twenty three points at Philadelphia. Typically,

593
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,640
Speaker 6: I'm one that doesn't believe home versus road is really

594
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 6: a big deal, but you look at stuff like that,

595
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 6: and you look at how they're scoring at home, and

596
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 6: there's something there. Have you guys been able to identify

597
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 6: anything you can point to where you say this may

598
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,360
Speaker 6: be the reason why Dallas is so much more effective

599
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 6: at home offensively than what they are on the road

600
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 6: better opponents.

601
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 3: I mean, if you're in.

602
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 2: Right, but the different let me ask you that.

603
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 6: So so then if you do that, then what's the

604
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 6: difference between Philadelphia on the road versus Philadelphia at home?

605
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 6: Because there's a big difference in how well Dallas played

606
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 6: at home. We gets Philadelphia, then maybe how they play

607
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 6: Dallas at home.

608
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 3: Is impossible to deal with. I just do I think that.

609
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 8: I think the conditions and I'm gonna be honest, I

610
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 8: mean this the field, the conditions, the things that they

611
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 8: deal with, they they just they.

612
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 3: Find a better rhythm playing offense, you know.

613
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 8: And maybe what happens too is you get on the

614
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 8: road and now you're dealing with crowd noise, and now

615
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 8: you're dealing with trying to communicate, and not everything gets

616
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 8: you know, not everything gets taken care of, you know,

617
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,199
Speaker 8: like it needs to be. But against Arizona, they were

618
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 8: really they were bad in the red zone. You know,

619
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 8: they were just really bad.

620
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 2: In the red zone at this point.

621
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 3: Yes, I think I think they've gotten better at it.

622
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 8: I think they actually have gotten better at it because

623
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 8: they've been more willing to use DAK if they have to.

624
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 3: But the receivers are doing a good job.

625
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 8: You get guys like guys Guy Turpin involved, you know,

626
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 8: I mean, he's had a couple of catches down there,

627
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 8: Ferguson making plays, Cooks making plays. You know, they've they've

628
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:27,199
Speaker 8: gotten guys, you know, Gallup had a touchdown the other day.

629
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 8: They're getting guys involved in the scene. The schemes have

630
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 8: been good, you know, the ways that they've been able

631
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 8: to operate, the running backs running the ball better. So yeah,

632
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,119
Speaker 8: they I feel like they've gotten better in that red

633
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 8: zone stuff.

634
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 5: And they have.

635
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,479
Speaker 7: And to answer that question statistically, I was, you know,

636
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 7: doing some science lab last night and it's it's up

637
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 7: on the dot com right now, shameless plug. But one

638
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 7: interest in that I came across was the red zone

639
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,919
Speaker 7: red zone efficiency for the Cowboys. Obviously a huge talking

640
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 7: point over the first you know, charmester of the season,

641
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 7: even first portion of the second trimester. But as we

642
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 7: have this conversation, Cowboys have scored inside the red zone

643
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 7: seventy one percent of the time over the last three games.

644
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 7: That's good enough for sixth best in the NIT. Now

645
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 7: guess what they're going up against. The Buffalo Bills defense

646
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 7: has allowed the opponent to score inside the red zone

647
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 7: eighty eight percent of the time in the last three games.

648
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 8: Forty six completion percentage down there, yeah, forty six. Half

649
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 8: the passes stone.

650
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 7: In the red zone are completely The Cowboys over the

651
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 7: last three games have heated up in the red zone

652
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 7: and the Bills are ice cold as far as stopping

653
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 7: teams from scoring in the end zone.

654
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 6: That's the only challenges office really has found. Also, like

655
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 6: they get moving and when they start moving, it's hard

656
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 6: to stop them. But the red zone has been the

657
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 6: issue in it.

658
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 2: That's wow, that's amazing.

659
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 5: Going to get better in the red zone.

660
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 10: That's one of the issues that they've definitely gotten better

661
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 10: the red zone because I'm going back to the beginning

662
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 10: of the season some of the things that we were

663
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 10: talking are they were still moving the ball pretty well,

664
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 10: and it's always when they hit the red zone, they

665
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 10: just couldn't get in and get the touchdown. And I'm

666
00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 10: going back, I mean, the away games hasn't been that.

667
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 10: I mean, yes, the losses have come from away games,

668
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 10: but it hasn't.

669
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 2: Been that terrible.

670
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 10: You can go back to the game against Philly that

671
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 10: was a very close game that it came down to

672
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 10: inches that.

673
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 3: You didn't handle the nine situation.

674
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 10: Yeah, well yeah, but very close, could have possibly been

675
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 10: a win for the Cowboys. Then you go to the

676
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 10: forty nine ers, that's yes, yeah, we know, we know,

677
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 10: we know.

678
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 2: Uh.

679
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 10: The when they play against the Giants, you completely dominated them,

680
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 10: scored forty points, and then with Arizona you they were sleepwalking.

681
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 12: Yeah, that was my point.

682
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 6: My point, I guess that's the point of it is

683
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 6: the four times this season when they've had the lowest

684
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 6: points scored on offense, they've been on the road.

685
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, they've had.

686
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 6: Some outliers, like the Giants game on the road where

687
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 6: they scored a ton of points. But even I think

688
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 6: we all came out of that game even saying offense

689
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 6: that it wasn't really clicking. Yeah, you have some defense, Yeah,

690
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,719
Speaker 6: there was other things that were going on in that

691
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 6: game that that kind of made that score what it was. Now, again,

692
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 6: a lot of that happened in the early part of

693
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 6: the season, in which case, now we think the offense

694
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 6: has made some changes and they're they're playing a much

695
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 6: different level, did much different type of game, and they

696
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 6: were playing back then, but the road was the road

697
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 6: back then.

698
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 8: They they've improved on things that they've improved on when

699
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 8: you start to talk about pre snap motions and things

700
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 8: like that, and you know, it's just you know, every

701
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 8: every every week it's gotten better and better. And to

702
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 8: the point when you look at week five was kind

703
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 8: of the water mark where we say, okay, things flipped

704
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 8: from that point on that that their motion stuffs up

705
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 8: about eight percent. You know, I mean, they went from

706
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 8: being one of the worst teams when it came to

707
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 8: pre stap motion to at least middle to back respectable

708
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 8: prestap motions. And you know, whether it's coming across or

709
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 8: going out, you know, they're they're finding ways to set

710
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 8: plays up with their motion and as long as they

711
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 8: keep doing that, they'll be fine.

712
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll tell you this.

713
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 6: I really want to see very interesting to see what

714
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 6: they do this week and what they do next week,

715
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 6: because that will tell me a lot about their capabilities

716
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 6: in the playoffs. Because if these if they continue to

717
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 6: have lackluster offensive performances in these next two games, then

718
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 6: you have to start saying it's something about the road

719
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 6: that's different than at home. And the likelihood is, if

720
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 6: all things play out as a lot of people expect

721
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 6: them to, Dallas is going to have to go on

722
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 6: the road. They have to if they want to get

723
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 6: to their ultimate their ultimate goal. So uh this, I

724
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 6: think these two games will do a lot for telling

725
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 6: us what we should expect from them in the playoffs

726
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 6: based on how they handle these two road games. Are

727
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 6: we gonna take our final break when we come back.

728
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 6: Let's jump into the NFL NFC. Let's talk a little

729
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 6: bit about some of those teams, and man, it's gotten

730
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 6: crazy down there at the bottom of the NFC playoff race.

731
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 6: There are a lot of teams that are involved, including

732
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 6: one New York Giants team that is making a push.

733
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 2: Would be all right, We'll be back to Dallas Cowboys

00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:33,959
Speaker 10: I'm wow.

790
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 2: But one thing I've learned about you is can you

791
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 2: get in your head or.

792
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 3: He'll bring you back?

793
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,440
Speaker 2: Man, always come back and can always.

794
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:46,359
Speaker 3: Let things die down a six months and then he'll go, man,

795
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 3: what are you doing? Hey right, you're thinking about doing

796
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:49,240
Speaker 3: an these shows.

797
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,160
Speaker 2: Once you're on my team, You're always on my team.

798
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 3: You're never truly gonna let things just die down. Everybody

799
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 3: forgets about you, and then all of a sudden show up.

800
00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,440
Speaker 3: They're like, wait a minute, when do we bring Broadest?

801
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 2: You never get away, keeps drawing you back in. All right,

802
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 2: let's talk about the NFC. Interesting here, man, it's gotten

803
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 2: really interesting.

804
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 6: Let's first start with the Cowboys have an opportunity this

805
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 6: weekend to clinch a playoff spot, which, let's be clear,

806
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 6: the likelihood of Dallas clinch is a playoff spot is

807
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:20,920
Speaker 6: like ninety nine percent. They're going to clinch it at

808
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 6: some point unless there's some sort of epic epic fail

809
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 6: on their part going down the stretch. But they can't

810
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 6: clinch this weekend with a win, and there are fourteen

811
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 6: other scenarios or thirteen other scenarios that could also allow

812
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,439
Speaker 6: the Cowboys to clinch if they should lose the game

813
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 6: this weekend. So suffice to say, there's a pretty decent chance,

814
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 6: depending on how you think the game is going to

815
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,719
Speaker 6: play out with the Bills, that's a good chance the

816
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,359
Speaker 6: Cowboys will be in the playoffs by the time we

817
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 6: get to next Monday. That all being said, you look

818
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 6: at the standings right now. You got the top four

819
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 6: teams that are clearly ahead of everyone else. You got

820
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 6: San Francisco at ten and three, Dallas ten and three,

821
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 6: Philadelphia ten and three, Detroit one game at nine and four.

822
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,719
Speaker 6: After they take a loss, they're starting to get a

823
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 6: little wonky there.

824
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 2: I was really high on Detroit, but I'm.

825
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 6: Starting to wonder now, starting to wonder now, like was

826
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 6: that fool's goal?

827
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 5: A little bit?

828
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:11,240
Speaker 2: But we'll see.

829
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,800
Speaker 6: But then you get down below that, and you're talking

830
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 6: about Minnesota at seven and six, Tampa Bay at six

831
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 6: and seven, Green Bay at six and seven, the Rams

832
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 6: at six and seven, Seattle six and seven, Atlanta six

833
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:23,919
Speaker 6: and seven, New Orleans six and seven.

834
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 2: And then that's not enough.

835
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 6: You got the New York Giants at five and eight

836
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 6: and Chicago at five and eight. Both those teams had

837
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 6: a little bit of success, definitely in the last week

838
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 6: the Giants and now are on a three game win streak,

839
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 6: including the win last week that they got against the Packers,

840
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 6: who are also a playoff contender.

841
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 2: So here's my question for you guys.

842
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,800
Speaker 6: We know those top four teams, who are going to

843
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 6: be the other three teams If you have to name

844
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,360
Speaker 6: three other teams that'll make the playoffs in the NFC

845
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 6: out of Minnesota, Tampa Bay, Green Bay, the Rams, Seattle, Atlanta,

846
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 6: New Orleans, New York Giants, and Chicago, who are you three.

847
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:00,399
Speaker 3: A lot?

848
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 7: It's it's such a it's a muddy mess below that

849
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 7: top four.

850
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 5: So let's say San fran Dallas. Who does Detroit take

851
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 5: the NC North?

852
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:13,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the Ty.

853
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 7: And then number four let's just label the NFC South

854
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 7: because ain't no telling.

855
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 5: Philadelphia, give me the Rams.

856
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 8: Give me the Rams in there at the Rams to me,

857
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,799
Speaker 8: are the team that they they've got, They've got their

858
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,800
Speaker 8: quarterback is I mean, they were at the Baltimore last

859
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 8: week and they should have won that game.

860
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,839
Speaker 3: Yep, they absolutely should have won that game.

861
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 8: And I think that Baltimore is one of the best

862
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 8: teams in the league. And for the Rams to go

863
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 8: all the way across the country play basically a one

864
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 8: o'clock game over there, they showed up that used to

865
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,360
Speaker 8: be roadkill for teams that did that, go all the

866
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 8: way across the country and play in one of those

867
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,880
Speaker 8: they the Rams played physical against a physical team.

868
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 3: I feel like I can't trust Seattle to beat Philadelphia.

869
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,879
Speaker 3: I want to believe. I want to believe that.

870
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 8: But Seattle, to me seems like they're even though they

871
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 8: get all that skill at wide receiver and all that.

872
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 3: I just I don't know.

873
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:12,880
Speaker 8: I mean, they need to they need to kind of

874
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 8: figure things out on defense. But the Rams seem like

875
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 8: the team them in Green Bay. I know Green Bay

876
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:24,439
Speaker 8: had a bad loss against the Giants, but I kind

877
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 8: of feel like that they're still in the mix with

878
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,240
Speaker 8: I thought they had. I thought they had a shot

879
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,359
Speaker 8: to kind of get themselves ahead of Minnesota. I don't

880
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 8: trust Minnesota. Minnesota's look at their quarterback situation every week

881
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,239
Speaker 8: and they're drawing it out of a out of a hat, you.

882
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 10: Know, Josh crazy that they've gone to this point that.

883
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,319
Speaker 8: They've just I mean, they're trying to hang in there,

884
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 8: but there's no consistency there.

885
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,839
Speaker 3: The Rams of the team that you probably don't want

886
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 3: to play.

887
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,919
Speaker 8: You just don't want to play them because of how

888
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 8: good Pukin Deakua and and the Cooper Cup the tight end,

889
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 8: the quarterback they get.

890
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 6: Running back now Karen Williams, Yeah, I'm kind of glad.

891
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 8: Dallas played the Rams earlier then later, because that's a

892
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 8: team I don't think you want to deal with.

893
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 3: I think the Rams are the last team to get in.

894
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 5: That's interesting because you Philly's five.

895
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 3: I don't trus San Francisco at the end, yea, what

896
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:15,400
Speaker 3: you do?

897
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't trust Minnesota.

898
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:21,359
Speaker 7: I could see Green Bay kind of bouncing back from

899
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 7: a loss that they should not have suffered against the Giants.

900
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,279
Speaker 7: Giants I was surgeon, so credit to the Giants and

901
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:29,280
Speaker 7: Tommy Cutlet's three game Winistrey, I do like the Rams.

902
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 7: I'm torn between Rams and Seahawks because you know, you

903
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 7: got the Rams and they're playing good football and McVeigh

904
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 7: he's got those guys rolling. And Seattle contrarily, they're stumbling

905
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 7: right now, and that includes allowing forty one points. But

906
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 7: you know it's too one of the highest scoring, if

907
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 7: not right now, the high scoring offense in the league.

908
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,319
Speaker 5: So take that for what it's worth.

909
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 7: I like that Seattle was competitive with Drew Locke in

910
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 7: Santa Clara against San Francisco for the majority of that game.

911
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 5: That tells me they're not quitting.

912
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 7: So if they do get Gino Smith back, We've seen

913
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 7: that Gino Smith in that offense with his quick release,

914
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,439
Speaker 7: they can put up some points. So I believe that

915
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 7: that versus a Philadelphia secondary that has to visit Seattle,

916
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 7: talk about home field advantage, twelfth man advantage and gene

917
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 7: cross country right, cross country trip, Gino and that arsenal.

918
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:23,720
Speaker 3: Right, what you guys are trying to do.

919
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 7: You know, and that arsenal against the secondary in Philadelphia

920
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 7: that's basically toast. I think we can all admit that

921
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 7: that secondary's toast. So I do like Seattle in this

922
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 7: game against Philadelphia I'm not saying it'll be a blowout,

923
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 7: but I like them more than I trusted a team

924
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 7: like Minnesota. Hell more than I trust a green team

925
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 7: like Green Bay. Right now, I do like the Rams do.

926
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:41,760
Speaker 7: I think the Rams are dangerous.

927
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 3: Seattle's perfect for Philadelphia. Seattle's perfect for Philadelphia.

928
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 8: Philadelphia's won ten games with the team at the end

929
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:49,959
Speaker 8: just gives it away.

930
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 3: You know, they've won all these.

931
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 8: Games where all of a sudden, you know they should

932
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 8: they shouldn't win, but they shouldn't win, but the opponent

933
00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 8: falls apart at the end. What did Seattle do against Dallas?

934
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,360
Speaker 8: They fell apart at the end. You know, that's what

935
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 8: they're gonna do. And so I I appreciate you guys

936
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 8: talking about it this way, but I think the next

937
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 8: two weeks, you look at the Rams. They've got the

938
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 8: Commanders at home, and they got the Saints at home.

939
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 8: They're about to be eight and seven with the Giants.

940
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 8: They go to the Giants and then that San Francisco.

941
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 8: That San Francisco game might be important to them, and

942
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 8: it might maybe it'll help you.

943
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe it'll help you.

944
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, because it'll be important to them to

945
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 8: make sure that they get into.

946
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 6: This, and you got also remember division is still gonna

947
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 6: be hard. The Vision's always hard.

948
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 3: Well you the Commanders.

949
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, And my point is like, if you got the

950
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 6: Rams playing their best football toward the end of the season,

951
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 6: which I've been saying is for a few weeks. The

952
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 6: reason why I like the Rams is because they're a

953
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 6: veteran team. A lot of these guys were in the

954
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 6: Super Bowl a few years ago. Like, this is a

955
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 6: veteran team. They know what they're doing, they have a

956
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 6: really good coach, they got really good schemes. I think

957
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 6: that you look at it from that standpoint, if they

958
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 6: get on a roll, they become very scary for a

959
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:58,960
Speaker 6: lot of teams. Everybody in the NFC has to be worried,

960
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:00,920
Speaker 6: Like I don't necessarily to match up with that team

961
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 6: if they're playing their best football at the end of

962
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 6: the season. So yeah, I think the Rams are the

963
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 6: team that the team out of all these teams that actually.

964
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 2: Could get in the playoffs and causeys, yeah.

965
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 8: That's that's that's like a six to seventh seed that

966
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:14,959
Speaker 8: could go and be one of those two or three.

967
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,760
Speaker 8: Absolutely because of the way they play. I'm talking myself

968
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 8: into that, but seriously. I mean they had the Ravens

969
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,399
Speaker 8: on the ropes. Yeah, they had that game over and

970
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 8: they you know, that had been a that's that's been

971
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 8: four straight after the bye with the Commanders and the

972
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,439
Speaker 8: Saints on the horizon, You're looking at a five game

973
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:33,319
Speaker 8: heater right there.

974
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, is Philly broken?

975
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 3: Amber Hopes. I don't think they're broken.

976
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,760
Speaker 10: I mean, they still have all those talented players in there.

977
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 10: I think they just they're still hurting from them beat

978
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 10: them against the forty nine ers. But I'm rooting for

979
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 10: the Giants right now. You talk about the perfect time

980
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 10: and crazy time for them to to start winning some games,

981
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 10: and he hasn't been anything extravagant, extravagant. It hasn't been

982
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:11,560
Speaker 10: like that. But it's crazy because they're they're about to

983
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,959
Speaker 10: face the Eagles pretty soon twice to end the year

984
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 10: and maybe gives them some some troubles. But I don't

985
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:23,760
Speaker 10: think Phillies were it's broke. They're just hurting.

986
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,879
Speaker 3: I would trade schedules with them right now.

987
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 10: Absolutely absolutely.

988
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:31,360
Speaker 3: They went through that run.

989
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,759
Speaker 8: They went through that run where they beat they beat Miami,

990
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 8: they beat Buffalo. You know, I mean they're ten to

991
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 8: three with now, they're gonna play I'd love to play

992
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 8: Arizona again. You caught Arizona at the wrong time. You

993
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,719
Speaker 8: caught the Rams at the right time, Arizona at the

994
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 8: wrong time. So but yeah, I to me, the Phillies

995
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 8: capable scoring points. The problem they have is they can't

996
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,359
Speaker 8: stop anybody. That's their issue right now.

997
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:01,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, they're beating, they're bloodied.

998
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 5: They're not broken. The offense is not broken. The secondary

999
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 5: is broken.

1000
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:06,800
Speaker 2: Are you sure?

1001
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 6: And that's really where I was gone when you say

1002
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 6: the second Well, but I'm saying when you say the

1003
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 6: offense isn't broken, like you go back to what Nick

1004
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,359
Speaker 6: Bosa said, and since they've played that, like we will

1005
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 6: see this weekend if they have the horses to do it.

1006
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:18,840
Speaker 2: But he's like, we got the blood.

1007
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:20,760
Speaker 5: But it's what you just said.

1008
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 7: If Seattle has the horses to do it, Cowboys and

1009
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 7: the forty nine Ers have the horses to execute the blueprint,

1010
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 7: Maybe Seattle does. We'll find out, but do the Giants.

1011
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 7: We'll have to find out. These are some of the

1012
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 7: lesser teams who are not of caliber of the Cowboys

1013
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 7: and the forty nine ers, but offensively, you know is

1014
00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 7: Jalen Hurts in that offense, light and scoreboard up. Nope, Nope.

1015
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 7: They need to figure some things out. But they've shown

1016
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 7: that they can score points more often than struggling to

1017
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:48,879
Speaker 7: score points. So I don't think I think they'll figure

1018
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 7: that out. Offensively, however, they need to. But defensively, the defense,

1019
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:55,440
Speaker 7: defensive line is what it is, which is great, but

1020
00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:57,720
Speaker 7: that secondary it is just it's it's lunch.

1021
00:44:57,800 --> 00:44:58,239
Speaker 5: It's lunch.

1022
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 3: It's time for the Eagles to say, Jalen Hurts, start running. Yeah, now,

1023
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 3: become a run.

1024
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 2: It looks like they were trying to do that last week.

1025
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:06,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, he didn't do it enough.

1026
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:07,960
Speaker 5: He jumped out early.

1027
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,839
Speaker 8: You were to the point in the season now that

1028
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 8: we got to make sure that we win this division.

1029
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,960
Speaker 8: You start running the ball, yeah, and do whatever it takes.

1030
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 8: Do whatever you have to do. We're not We're not

1031
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:20,600
Speaker 8: keeping the bubble wrap on you anymore.

1032
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 7: You run the ball, contrarily, New York Giants, whatever it takes,

1033
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 7: whatever it takes.

1034
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:28,799
