Speaker 1: possession of second place in the NFC East. Welcome into
Speaker 1: Talking Cowboys, presented by Black Rifle Coffee Company here on
Speaker 1: this victory bun Day alongside Patrick Nose, Walker, Isaiah stand back,
Speaker 1: Crisp Beam in the back is always I'm Kyle Yeoman's gentlemen,
Speaker 1: how we doing fantastic, fantastic cobal Everybody have a good holiday?
Speaker 1: Did did? How about you goes? It was awesome? So nice?
Speaker 1: You're feeling all right? Man? Yeah? No, I feel like garbage.
Speaker 1: But outside of that compost no, no, no, this is
Speaker 1: it may be recyclables, like maybe okay pops up on
Speaker 1: the injury report with man if there was a questionable
Speaker 1: tag on the beat writers and the reporters of the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys questionable or doubtful question before we were doubtful
Speaker 1: on Sunday. I had a game on Saturday, and you
Speaker 1: could ask heck My Harrison about this because we did it,
Speaker 1: did the North Texas and Rice game together, and I
Speaker 1: legitimately could barely stand that morning. Got there, got it done,
Speaker 1: made it work. Yeah, Yeah, that was doubtful. And I
Speaker 1: have never used and so peak behind the curtain. For broadcasters,
Speaker 1: there's a cough button that you have to use in
Speaker 1: order to like mask and mute it. Dude, I have
Speaker 1: never used a cough button. So much was morse cot
Speaker 1: Yeah there was more. I was probably muted more time
Speaker 1: than I was talking in that broadcast. Wow. Yeah, Hey,
Speaker 1: fun fact. I used to no Morse code, Really you
Speaker 1: used to? Why? I definitely forgot it? Yeah, because my
Speaker 1: mom wouldn't let me go to the hood middle school.
Speaker 1: There was a couple of blocks from the house, so
Speaker 1: her and the rest of the moms in the hood
Speaker 1: sent me and my boys up to a school all
Speaker 1: the way up on Queen Anne Hee on Seattle, the
Speaker 1: Bougie Bougie area, Seattle, and we had in order to
Speaker 1: pass middle school, in order to graduate middle school, you
Speaker 1: had to do Morse code. Are you serious? Promise you
Speaker 1: so your school was teaching you Morris code. I was
Speaker 1: teaching me. The two different types of codes were going
Speaker 1: on learning. Yeah, two different types. I thought we were
Speaker 1: gonna say it was some Bill Belichick thing from back
Speaker 1: in the day. Now, all right, but let's go through it.
Speaker 1: Cowboys win twenty eight to twenty over the New York
Speaker 1: Giants take over second place in the NFC East. Ezekiel
Speaker 1: Elliott with ninety two yards on the ground, Tony Pollard
Speaker 1: with sixty, but it was Dak Prescott and the tight
Speaker 1: ends that uh that took the took the center stage
Speaker 1: twenty one to thirty, passing for Dak two sixty one
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. They had a couple interceptions early in the game,
Speaker 1: but then he found Dalton Schultz a couple of times,
Speaker 1: Jake Ferguson a couple of times to Ceedee Lamb up
Speaker 1: over one hundred yards receiving as well. What were your
Speaker 1: thoughts overall, Isaiah, overall thought it was a good victory. Um,
Speaker 1: nothing crazy, nothing crazy. I think the offense finally started
Speaker 1: getting getting their little groove back. Yeah, that was that
Speaker 1: was exciting to see. And I think defensively they did
Speaker 1: a pretty dog good job against the run. So I
Speaker 1: was happy second straight week that the Cowboys defense has
Speaker 1: shown up against one of the top five, top three
Speaker 1: if you're talking about sae Quon and Delvin Cook, top
Speaker 1: three arguably halfbacks in the game, and not so coincidentally,
Speaker 1: they won both of those outings. So one thing that
Speaker 1: we were harping on coming out of the Minnesota victory
Speaker 1: was consistency. Consistency, consistency. Can we see that from you know,
Speaker 1: all three phases of the Cowboys offensively? Still a couple
Speaker 1: of hiccups, right, Still, still a couple of misques there
Speaker 1: in the interceptions came from. But they showed me a
Speaker 1: lot from the aspect of run defense. And keep in mind,
Speaker 1: they were able to keep say, Quon Barkley to what
Speaker 1: thirty nine yards when eleven carries without Jonathan Hankins on
Speaker 1: the field, who was out with an illness who was
Speaker 1: inactive with an elis. So. Yeah, saw some consistency in
Speaker 1: the run defense that was great. Does it take away
Speaker 1: the fact that they were going up against multiple backups?
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a New York Giants offensive front
Speaker 1: that was missing three of their five normal starters and
Speaker 1: four guys that had at least started one game. I
Speaker 1: don't care. This season doesn't matter. I don't care. Those
Speaker 1: guys get backups get paid too. Yeah, but it's not
Speaker 1: the same in terms of trying to Terence Still was
Speaker 1: a backup at one point. So you're saying that if
Speaker 1: if he wasn't he started thirteen games as fresh his
Speaker 1: rookie season, was he the starter? No? No, no, he wasn't.
Speaker 1: Backups get paid as well. Backups can become starters if
Speaker 1: they step in and step up. Should I don't feel
Speaker 1: badly for the oppositions backups not stepping up and playing
Speaker 1: to the CALIBERO. Now, I get what you're saying. There's
Speaker 1: there's levels to this, right, there's difference between all pro
Speaker 1: and a backup. That's fair, that's completely true. That's just science,
Speaker 1: that's just what it is. But my point being, if
Speaker 1: the Cowboys had lost this game two backups. Right then
Speaker 1: everybody be like, how do you? How do you? How
Speaker 1: do you? How do you? Yeah, but they win this game,
Speaker 1: and then there are people out there saying, oh, well,
Speaker 1: you beat a bunch of backups hashtag keep that energy. Well,
Speaker 1: that's not what I'm necessarily. I'm talking more so on
Speaker 1: the confidence level, because yeah, they did shut down sa
Speaker 1: Quon Barkley. Eleven carries thirty nine yards, that's three and
Speaker 1: a half yards per pop. You had the one yard
Speaker 1: touchdown run that was set up by the big play
Speaker 1: to Darius Layton, so he didn't have the numbers that
Speaker 1: a sea Quon Barkley should have. But you did it
Speaker 1: against Minnesota, which was great. That was full blown. You
Speaker 1: shut down Dalvin Cook to the at least limited Dalvin
Speaker 1: Cook for the most part. That was a big confidence
Speaker 1: boost for the run defense. I don't know if this
Speaker 1: one has that same kind of Joel No, it doesn't
Speaker 1: have the same energy as far as the explosiveness behind
Speaker 1: the feeling of the victory. So you go into Minnesota
Speaker 1: and you beat an eight and one Minnesota team, you know,
Speaker 1: with a healthy Dalvin Cook in Justin Jefferson and there's
Speaker 1: a rolling eight in a Row going to the game.
Speaker 1: That's not what this was on Thanksgiving. So to your point,
Speaker 1: it's not equivalent. However, it's still a meaningful when it's
Speaker 1: not something that you will pop bottles over. You shouldn't
Speaker 1: be popping bottles anyway, because it's still the regular season. Um.
Speaker 1: But it doesn't carry the same sense of wonderment as
Speaker 1: what happened in Minnesota. But it still matters in such
Speaker 1: a way because even though you the stats are not
Speaker 1: going to show that they were backups, the stats are
Speaker 1: going to show that you beat a divisional rival. Stats
Speaker 1: are gonna show that you swept at the visional rival,
Speaker 1: a playoff team, playoff a playoff team right now, and
Speaker 1: that you're only wanting to half one and a half
Speaker 1: behind Philly to Philly. So I mean, the stats are
Speaker 1: going to show and that the stadients are going to
Speaker 1: show that you handle business. And that's basically what it is.
Speaker 1: I said they handled business. They shocked the world for
Speaker 1: the most part in Minnesota, but they simply handle business
Speaker 1: against New York, which is what they were supposed to do. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that last statement. They did what they were supposed
Speaker 1: to do. I mean, nothing amazing here. They the team
Speaker 1: was beat up. They go, they gonly play the team
Speaker 1: that shows up, so they took care of business. There
Speaker 1: you go. Yeah, I think it say it's at least
Speaker 1: somewhat of a conversation to be had about the defense
Speaker 1: and what they were able to do, because at least
Speaker 1: going back, and I know, Isaiah, you've watched the film
Speaker 1: by this point too. Yeah, but I was really impressed
Speaker 1: with Layton vander esh and Marcus Lawrence. I thought those
Speaker 1: two guys some of the savvy vets of that defense
Speaker 1: came up and stepped up big. I want to talk
Speaker 1: about Layton for a second here because I don't think
Speaker 1: he gets as much credit as he needs to. How
Speaker 1: much credit is he deserving of because of the way
Speaker 1: this defense has been playing, in the fact that he's
Speaker 1: the one that's right in the middle of it all,
Speaker 1: I can't speak to him just particularly. I think that
Speaker 1: he's having more opportunities this year to make plays because
Speaker 1: the front the front forest playing better. Yeah, So, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think the linebackers are usually products of the guys
Speaker 1: that are in front of them. So I think that
Speaker 1: with the stress that he's under this year, the lack
Speaker 1: there of extension of his contract, all those kind of things.
Speaker 1: I think that he is trying to make a case
Speaker 1: for why he should remain. Now, I've said it all season,
Speaker 1: and obviously there have been some some valleys in his
Speaker 1: mountain range as far as the totality of his season
Speaker 1: thus far, but there have been far more peaks than valleys,
Speaker 1: and I keep saying it. I tweeted, I put it
Speaker 1: in you know articles, our lvee is having a resurgent season. Rather,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, rather you like to admit it to
Speaker 1: not because you know, you came into the season and
Speaker 1: you were standing on a particular hill when it came
Speaker 1: to Layton Vanderesh, and that hill basically said, oh, well,
Speaker 1: he's not what he was when he was a Pro
Speaker 1: Bowl rookie. And at that point going into training camp,
Speaker 1: that was justifiable. I understand. But you can't now look
Speaker 1: at the film through what's about to be November as
Speaker 1: we look forward to December and justifiably say that LV
Speaker 1: is not having one of the better seasons for as
Speaker 1: a Cowboys defensive player. He just absolutely is. And he
Speaker 1: was critical in helping the Cowboys to handle their business
Speaker 1: against the New York Giants. Critical and helping the Cowboys
Speaker 1: to upset the Minnesota Vikings. Because even if you look
Speaker 1: at the Giants, yeah they were playing backups cow But
Speaker 1: on the film shows there were still lanes every once
Speaker 1: in a while that were being opened for say Quon Barkley.
Speaker 1: But those linebackers for the Cowboys, they were in those lanes.
Speaker 1: They were filling those lanes. They were setting those edges.
Speaker 1: Say Kwan, when he couldn't get the A and B,
Speaker 1: he tried to take the C and the D and
Speaker 1: the E and he couldn't get those those letters either, Right,
Speaker 1: So shouts out to Lvee and Demon Clark as well.
Speaker 1: Forty six snaps on Thanksgiving, third forty plus snap game
Speaker 1: in his four game NFL career, and he was the
Speaker 1: kid was flying around and he's taking his cues from
Speaker 1: a veteran like Lvee. So the linebacker corps is starting
Speaker 1: to come alive and Anthony Barr's not even back yet. Now.
Speaker 1: I think Demon has been great at times. He's had
Speaker 1: some good plays throughout. There are a couple of times
Speaker 1: when his reads were off his awareness. He's a rookie
Speaker 1: that hasn't had training, hasn't had to play a ton
Speaker 1: of playing time, ton of practice time, with training count,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of excitement still for what demon's gonna be.
Speaker 1: He's not there yet. He's not there yet, but he's
Speaker 1: still making place. And that's a good thing, is that
Speaker 1: when he's not to where you want him to be,
Speaker 1: but he's still making an impact. That's a huge plus
Speaker 1: for this defense, especially when you've got guys around them.
Speaker 1: What did you think about the secondary when you went
Speaker 1: back and looked at it and how they played against
Speaker 1: New York Anthony Brown, Treyvon Diggs, Dix didn't barely got
Speaker 1: targeted in that. Yeah, they're not. They're not throwing the
Speaker 1: ball his way. Um again, if I feel like this
Speaker 1: game was very vanilla honestly, well, I want you to
Speaker 1: make it not vanilla for me. I need you, I
Speaker 1: need you to give me something here. I really ain't
Speaker 1: got much, man. I mean, it wasn't they didn't They
Speaker 1: weren't really a threat. And there's this offense of the
Speaker 1: Giants wasn't really a threat. Why weren't they a threat?
Speaker 1: This is a that was a seven and three team
Speaker 1: going in. Yeah, I that's somewhat of a threat. I mean, again,
Speaker 1: that's analytics stats all that, Jass. I mean, that's that's
Speaker 1: a record. Yeah, I mean, but I mean all teams
Speaker 1: aren't the same, So records are you know, are dictated
Speaker 1: paces upon who you're you gonna have opportunity to play again.
Speaker 1: So their record against Dallas is over two. That's that's
Speaker 1: that's the facts, and then Dallas is just the records
Speaker 1: were the same. I said this on a pregame show.
Speaker 1: Records were the same. But these are not two of
Speaker 1: the same teams. Yeah, it's just not even They're not
Speaker 1: even in the same realm, same ballpark. I think what
Speaker 1: coach Dave Ball is doing over there as an amazing
Speaker 1: job patchwork. I mean, this dude literally was given a
Speaker 1: broken puzzle and he's just putting it, you know, piecing
Speaker 1: it together, and he's done a heck of a job
Speaker 1: with it. I think they're a team that you better
Speaker 1: have your eye on over the next few years when
Speaker 1: he has opportunities stret getting his guys in there. But
Speaker 1: as of right now, they're just not on the same
Speaker 1: level of playing field as Dallas. So what these guys
Speaker 1: showed offensively, not a whole lot. You know, Dallas has
Speaker 1: done a good job of playing safe defense for the
Speaker 1: most part. And I you know what this with this
Speaker 1: front seven is allowing for them to do is providing
Speaker 1: them plenty of opportunities to play really good defense in
Speaker 1: the secondary. They're not being forced to have to guard
Speaker 1: guys out of the field. They're not being forced to
Speaker 1: have the guard, you know, take big shots down the field.
Speaker 1: They're able to play safe, able to play patient and
Speaker 1: sit there and watch their guys up front eating. Then
Speaker 1: when the opportunities to present themselves, they're able to break
Speaker 1: on place. I'll tell you what Asaia is correct in
Speaker 1: the aspect of the Giants offense mostly being vanilla. They
Speaker 1: don't have the downfield weapons. So if you equate vanilla
Speaker 1: to snow, cowboys need to stop eating the yellow snow.
Speaker 1: And the yellow and the snow is those penalties, the
Speaker 1: penalties that they continue to commit on defense. The Cowboys
Speaker 1: did that extended drives unnecessarily for Daniel Jones and the
Speaker 1: New York Giants. That's what helped keep them in a
Speaker 1: game that they should not have been in. I mean,
Speaker 1: the Cowboys should have run away with this game in
Speaker 1: the first quarter, particularly especially the second quarter, if not
Speaker 1: for those penalties. What are we talking about thirteen penalties.
Speaker 1: If you have thirteen penalties for eighty six yards. And
Speaker 1: it's not just the penalties, but it's the type of penalty.
Speaker 1: It's the timing of those penalties as well. Talk about
Speaker 1: Carlos Watkins for example. Those penalties have to be cleaned up,
Speaker 1: and you're not going to beat the better teams in
Speaker 1: the league. And I'm eyeing towards the playoffs at the moment.
Speaker 1: If you're in a game committing thirteen penalties, ten penalties,
Speaker 1: nine penalties, you're going to have to clean that up
Speaker 1: because if you're extending drives for Jalen Hurts, if you're
Speaker 1: extending drives for Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen, you're not
Speaker 1: gonna win that game. Yeah, you're just not. So that's
Speaker 1: the yellow and the snow Cowboys need to stop peeing
Speaker 1: in their own snow, right and and clean that up.
Speaker 1: And if they clean that up, then they can continue
Speaker 1: to take care of business as they you know, kind
Speaker 1: of as forward to the AFC South coming up. This
Speaker 1: weird there's a lot of unnecessary, unnecessary mental images being
Speaker 1: thrown around. Yeah, don't do it today. I like what
Speaker 1: you're bringing up here, though, because if if there was
Speaker 1: something that wasn't vanilla about this ball game. It's the
Speaker 1: fact that you were down thirteen to seven at halftime. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's the fact that you had two turnovers
Speaker 1: in the first half and you had it. It's hard
Speaker 1: to call it a slow start because you were never
Speaker 1: down by more than a possession, never down by more
Speaker 1: than six points. Yeah, but it still wasn't the same
Speaker 1: type of and they were moving the ball. Cowboys were
Speaker 1: The cowboys are hurting themselves. I mean, they're not being outplayed.
Speaker 1: It is not like they're facing these opponents that have
Speaker 1: these great schemes against them. Sure, and they're you know,
Speaker 1: they're struggling to try to work their way through that
Speaker 1: until the second half. You know, to you know, to
Speaker 1: no Sea's point, you know, penalties are keeping teams in
Speaker 1: the game. You know, Dak's decision making is keeping teams
Speaker 1: in the game. These are things that are reoccurring that
Speaker 1: they they're going to have to find a way to
Speaker 1: stop them because you can't, like you already mentioned, you
Speaker 1: can't have thirteen penalties a game think that you're gonna
Speaker 1: keep winning ball games. It's just you have one of
Speaker 1: the worst you know, the easiest schedules in the league
Speaker 1: that's been talked about. Okay, regardless, you play whoever shows up.
Speaker 1: But when you start getting to those games that really matter,
Speaker 1: this is that that formally doesn't work. And when you
Speaker 1: start playing teams that matter, DAK, you got to understand
Speaker 1: the dog on coverage and where you can go with
Speaker 1: the ball. You can't just be throwing it down the
Speaker 1: dog on field versus two man and thinking that your
Speaker 1: guys are just gonna make plays because they're your guys.
Speaker 1: So these are things that have to get cleaned up
Speaker 1: because those same types of plays, those same types of penalties,
Speaker 1: and those characteristics will destroy you and will keep you
Speaker 1: back home again after a week one matchup in the playoffs.
Speaker 1: All they gotta do is clean that up. And what
Speaker 1: I will say positively as far as the defense is concerned,
Speaker 1: and not only did they set the edges against se
Speaker 1: Quon Barkley, but they did not allow Daniel Jones to
Speaker 1: use his legs at all. There's one play in particular
Speaker 1: where I recall Donovan Wilson Daniel Jones. The play was broken,
Speaker 1: the interior pressure got there, DJ broke out to the
Speaker 1: left and he started his thought process was I'm going
Speaker 1: to scramble. I see nothing but greening from him. I'm
Speaker 1: taking this and moving the change. Donovan Wilson comes streaking
Speaker 1: across the field and you could see it in Jones's
Speaker 1: eyes when he changed his mind and was like, Oh,
Speaker 1: this isn't gonna happen, and then ended up being a
Speaker 1: tackle at the line of scrimmage. So if the Cowboys
Speaker 1: defense can continue to set the edge and continue flying
Speaker 1: around like that, not only will they be able to
Speaker 1: continuously stop the run from the aspect of a halfback
Speaker 1: out of the backfield, but these mobile quarterbacks and I'm
Speaker 1: looking at Jalen Hurts, these mobile quarterbacks will then have
Speaker 1: much more of a challenge. So take that playbook that
Speaker 1: you used against Daniel Jones, dan Quinn, refine it and
Speaker 1: get it ready for Philadelphia in a few weeks. So
Speaker 1: you brought up the fact that there be themselves and
Speaker 1: that this has been a problem and it's a compounding
Speaker 1: problem that you'd have to be better at. And it's
Speaker 1: not just penalties. Penalties do play a factor into that,
Speaker 1: but it's the mistakes, it's the interceptions early in the game,
Speaker 1: it's forcing the ball into a tight window, it's missing
Speaker 1: a block. I thought Tyler Smith and Tyler Bottish were
Speaker 1: taking advantage of On Thursday, those guys had a rough day.
Speaker 1: Williams is back too. I was about to say Williams
Speaker 1: and Dexter Lawrence and Cavon Thibodeau not gonna make it easy.
Speaker 1: He was in the backfield quite a bit. And credit
Speaker 1: to New York they did a great job of scheming
Speaker 1: up against Bottish and Tyler. They fought, They got some dudes.
Speaker 1: They fought, but they were not very good in that game,
Speaker 1: which one worries you more the twenty twenty one Cowboys
Speaker 1: and the fact that they beat themselves quite a bit,
Speaker 1: and that was kind of the early warning signals of
Speaker 1: what was to come in the wild card round against
Speaker 1: San Francisco. Or do you feel like you're more confident
Speaker 1: in that area of the game this time around this year?
Speaker 1: Two penalties, self inflicted wounds, whatever it may be. I'm
Speaker 1: more confident in the twenty twenty one last years, Yeah,
Speaker 1: why because that offense can overcome. Could you not say
Speaker 1: the same thing about this defense? Though? This defense is
Speaker 1: more patient, This defensive defense is more solid upfront, I
Speaker 1: would say than last year. The penalties. Those are decisions.
Speaker 1: Penalties are decisions. That's that as a product of you
Speaker 1: being lazied, as a product of you being out of position,
Speaker 1: as a product of you having bad hand placement technique,
Speaker 1: all those things, that's where the penalties come in, right,
Speaker 1: So those are things that are always correctable. The difference
Speaker 1: is this year they have more playmakers on defense. Okay,
Speaker 1: last year they made bigger plays on defense. You look
Speaker 1: at this year, this offense is not as explosive as
Speaker 1: last year. So the ability to overcome penalties, the ability
Speaker 1: to overcome turnovers was greater last year than it is
Speaker 1: this year. So that's why I'm like Hesita, like, hey, okay,
Speaker 1: you're winning ball games. You're doing good, but you better
Speaker 1: clean this mess up because you don't have the same
Speaker 1: You don't say you don't have the same room for
Speaker 1: error as you did last year, at least offensively. Yeah,
Speaker 1: at least offensively. You don't have the same room for
Speaker 1: error because you have to fight and claw and scratch
Speaker 1: your way back into a ball game. Last year, if
Speaker 1: you get down by ten, thirteen, whatever it is, Okay,
Speaker 1: you get down like that, You're like, okay, whatever, two
Speaker 1: plays later, we will you know we'll get a touchdown.
Speaker 1: This year, you don't have that same feeling. You just don't.
Speaker 1: And it's not even just a feeling, it's just the
Speaker 1: reality this this offense cannot strike as fast as it
Speaker 1: did last year, so you don't have that room for error.
Speaker 1: You can't keep putting yourself in these positions. And I'm
Speaker 1: sure they're working out the kinks, and I'm sure that
Speaker 1: they feel like they're like they're in control of the game.
Speaker 1: So you take more risk when you feel like, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're just that much better, but they better clean it up.
Speaker 1: Would it think of that oldel guy? Would you feel
Speaker 1: would you would it change your sentiment? No? Not until
Speaker 1: I can see what he does. That's fair, and that's
Speaker 1: very fair. As a matter of fact. What I would say, though,
Speaker 1: is the defense if we're looking at the Giants game,
Speaker 1: because that's the most recent one and it's not the
Speaker 1: first time, no will be the last time. The defense
Speaker 1: will have to kind of save the day. But the
Speaker 1: defense continuously deleted errors that the offense made. Delete right,
Speaker 1: hardy boys, boys, but they continuous lead the lead of
Speaker 1: the errors that the cowboys made. So I would say that,
Speaker 1: and I'm one I'm real big on you know, defense
Speaker 1: does win championships. So I feel more confident in this
Speaker 1: version of the Cowboys over the last year's version in
Speaker 1: the aspect of penalties, because if forever reason they don't
Speaker 1: get these penalties cleaned up. We talked about it at
Speaker 1: the top of the show. You're putting yourself in a
Speaker 1: position to lose in the playoffs early in the playoffs,
Speaker 1: but you're also putting yourself keep it to regular season.
Speaker 1: You're also keep putting yourself in a position to potentially
Speaker 1: lose to a team like the Coats and the Jaguars
Speaker 1: and the Texans. Why because you're allowing them to remain
Speaker 1: in the game. And if you allow them the remaining
Speaker 1: of the game, they're gonna still have hope, and the
Speaker 1: hope grows, and all of a sudden, one bad call
Speaker 1: or no call, one bad bounce of the ball, and
Speaker 1: now you've lost that game and you should have won
Speaker 1: that game. So penalties can come back and bite you, obviously,
Speaker 1: But this defense, it can delete them. It can delete them.
Speaker 1: This is not me saying you shouldn't be concerned about it,
Speaker 1: because the defense has also shown that if they have
Speaker 1: a bad day, but if they have a bad day
Speaker 1: on the day that you're kind of penalty written. Ye,
Speaker 1: that game's over. Yep, that game's over. So bottom line,
Speaker 1: clean it up, Clean it up, Clean it up. I
Speaker 1: have a stat line that I want to give on
Speaker 1: the other side of the break that might change your
Speaker 1: mind on how you think about this offense right now.
Speaker 1: Don't tease me. Yes, I think it will change your mind.
Speaker 1: It changed my mind and it gives me a new
Speaker 1: perspective moving into the last couple months of the season.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about it when we come back with more
Speaker 1: Talking Cowboys presented by Black Rifle Coffee Company. When you build,
Speaker 1: you start with the foundation, and home ownership is a
Speaker 1: foundation of a stable future. The Bank of America Community
Speaker 1: Homeownership Commitment has helped over thirty four thousand people lay

Speaker 1: she knows. She you You still have no idea who
Speaker 1: you saw last night? It was like King King Country
Speaker 1: something King in Country. It was like a Christian band,
Speaker 1: two guys from Australia and they have I don't know, Oh,
Speaker 1: I think it's four King in Country or something something like.
Speaker 1: I gotta look at that, something like that. How do
Speaker 1: you go to don't know who's really you were spaced up? Yeah,
Speaker 1: for King and Country. I gotta country. There you go.
Speaker 1: Were they good? It was? Um, it was a good show.
Speaker 1: They weren't memorable, apparently because it's not my style. But
Speaker 1: I was present, you know what I'm saying, supportive present,
Speaker 1: all right, this stat I'm wondering if it'll change your
Speaker 1: mind on how you look at this Cowboy not a
Speaker 1: stat guy, Kyle. I know. However, weeks one through six,
Speaker 1: so all the way up until the end of the
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush era, Okay, okay, Cowboys were ranked twenty third
Speaker 1: in points, twenty seventh in total yards, and in passing yards.
Speaker 1: Huh they were twenty ninth, So bottom four on third down?
Speaker 1: Where you going with it? And they were twenty fifth. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know where he's going on points per drive. Okay,
Speaker 1: So in the twenties for all of those in the
Speaker 1: bottom ten in the league in every single one of
Speaker 1: those categories, and it didn't. And then following the return
Speaker 1: of dak Prescott, Dakota back in the rain, I mean,
Speaker 1: first in points, third in total yards, sixth in passing yards,
Speaker 1: and then their number one, number one in the NFL
Speaker 1: in third down, which they were twenty ninth previously, and
Speaker 1: their first in points per drive. So you're saying dak matters.
Speaker 1: He does matter. Okay, that's that's the point you're making. Absolutely, Okay,
Speaker 1: he completely matters. Still not as explosive as last year, first, third, sixth,
Speaker 1: first and first. I mean it's not as explosive because
Speaker 1: I would guarantee yards per play probably way different. First
Speaker 1: this year isn't the same as first last year because
Speaker 1: there was more. No, there was more, there was more.
Speaker 1: That's a very however, the point that you're making there,
Speaker 1: but we've talked about it before. This defense is so good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: especially when they can stop the run two and they
Speaker 1: can compound the fact that they can pass rush with
Speaker 1: the best of anybody, and then they can stop the
Speaker 1: run even at a medium Right, all you need is
Speaker 1: an offense to be capable of making a move until
Speaker 1: putting up numbers, until until what the defense has a
Speaker 1: bad day, bad day. Sure they're entitled to that, but see,
Speaker 1: I think in Tiko's point, the difference now with Dak
Speaker 1: being back is that if you eliminate the misques and
Speaker 1: minimize the penalties, the offense can now delete defensive errors.
Speaker 1: Delete delete, delete this. You couldn't say this in the
Speaker 1: Cooper rush error. No, that's not Cooper. Just the way
Speaker 1: the gameplay, I understand you, guys, is valid points that
Speaker 1: you're making. Okay, however it face. However, it's the face.
Speaker 1: I am not comparing Dak to freaking Cooper. We're not. No,
Speaker 1: we're not. We're talking. We're to a capable offense. I
Speaker 1: get it. It's not enough, it's not enough with the
Speaker 1: mistakes that are being made. Let me say it that way.
Speaker 1: I mean, you're four and one and it's not enough.
Speaker 1: Should should be five? Not enough with the mistakes that
Speaker 1: you're making. Again, I and people are gonna crucify me.
Speaker 1: That's fine. They're gonna do diff I look at things
Speaker 1: in the light of what is it going to take
Speaker 1: to get the ring? Not to the playoffs? Sure, what
Speaker 1: is it going to take to get through the playoffs
Speaker 1: and ultimately get the ring? That is always my perspective.
Speaker 1: Now along that journey, you have to look at it
Speaker 1: on a week by week basis. Sure, okay, and I
Speaker 1: get that. Okay, I totally get that, but that's not
Speaker 1: where my mind is. You can't continue to have this
Speaker 1: offense playing the way it's playing with the turnovers and
Speaker 1: think that you're just gonna say, Oh, our defense is
Speaker 1: just that good and you're not wrong, and correct me
Speaker 1: if I miss misqualify what you're saying. What Kyle is
Speaker 1: saying is your point is that the offense is an
Speaker 1: access as explosive that's last season. I agree with that.
Speaker 1: I don't think Kyward disagrees, but yeah, I agree with it.
Speaker 1: That being said, his point with those stats is that
Speaker 1: the offense is much more likely and capable to delete
Speaker 1: a defensive bad day than it was during that stretch
Speaker 1: of Cooper Rush, which was and I would totally agree
Speaker 1: with that. That so so let's build on that, okay,
Speaker 1: With that being the foundation Okay, the trajectory, if that's
Speaker 1: the right, If that's your trajectory, okay, Cowboys, eliminate the
Speaker 1: miscus on offense minimized. I'm not even asking you to
Speaker 1: delete the penalties altogether. Now I feel like I'm just
Speaker 1: asking too much a lot. But if you just minimize
Speaker 1: the penalties to three or four game instead of thirteen,
Speaker 1: and you cut out the misqus in the receiving game,
Speaker 1: this defense is and this offense, even without Odell Beckham Junior,
Speaker 1: is closer to thirty five points per game than not.
Speaker 1: And that can win you a game if your defense
Speaker 1: is struggling against the run or whatever the case may be.
Speaker 1: So that that's all, if I'm not mistaken, that's what
Speaker 1: he says. That's that's two different offenses. It's the Cooper
Speaker 1: rush offense versus the his back and decks finding his wheels.
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty two that this version of the offense
Speaker 1: delete the miscues man the master penalties. Yeah, they can.
Speaker 1: Even with the penalties and the turnovers. They had two
Speaker 1: turnovers against Chicago, they had a couple of turnovers against Detroit.
Speaker 1: They had a turnover against New York, two turnovers against
Speaker 1: New York and they still won those games handily. They
Speaker 1: were never in trouble in those games. I'm not I'm
Speaker 1: not comparing New York, Chicago and Detroit to a super
Speaker 1: Bowl caliber team that they're going to play later on
Speaker 1: in the season. Do you feel secure with the with
Speaker 1: what Dallas put out put on the field other day?
Speaker 1: Do you feel secure if that was Philadelphia? No, I don't.
Speaker 1: And That's what I'm talking about. And that's what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about. That's what that's what I'm comparing to. Yeah, right,
Speaker 1: that's what I'm talking about. You saw that last night.
Speaker 1: I mean Philadelphia going up against green Bay last night.
Speaker 1: That was the same green Bay team that came back
Speaker 1: and beat you because of your miscues. Philadelphia didn't make that. No,
Speaker 1: but because I'm thinking but that. But that's the point.
Speaker 1: So you were the oldest team the three interceptions for
Speaker 1: Philly to beat you in Philly. So maybe the Giants,
Speaker 1: the Giants, the Giants weren't capable offensively. Let's just be real, Okay,
Speaker 1: they're not capable at this point in time. This Giants
Speaker 1: isn't capable of playing keepaway, in marching down the field
Speaker 1: and keeping your defense on the Philip now they're not
Speaker 1: right now, They're not so this Giants, And I'm not
Speaker 1: taking away Dallas's Winna got the dub. But that team
Speaker 1: that you just played against, it that you beat and
Speaker 1: that you should have beat, they were not in a
Speaker 1: position to take advantage of their lead. Yeah, does that
Speaker 1: make sense when I'm what I'm saying like they were.
Speaker 1: They were not a capable opponent in that regard of
Speaker 1: holding and maintaining and expanding upon the lead of Philadelphia
Speaker 1: is right a Tampa Bay is when they're healthy. I
Speaker 1: would I would also argue the fact that that Dallas
Speaker 1: took that lead back. I'm not saying they didn't, but
Speaker 1: I'm just saying that you're saying the calibratia too. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying, a more capable offense is scarce the crap
Speaker 1: out of me with those with us in that position.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Dallas, they were they had to
Speaker 1: do to be the Giants. Cool pat on the back,
Speaker 1: slap them on the butt on the way by Jason
Speaker 1: Garrett clock oy Cool but should have been a blowout though, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it should have been. But Philadelphia with that lead six points,
Speaker 1: it's only six points, and then Dallas got the ball
Speaker 1: back at the start of the third quarter, that lead
Speaker 1: versus Cooper Rush. You're right, Philadelphia with that lead versus
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. Yeah, I don't agree. I feel that that's
Speaker 1: where we're We're gonna find out that. Sure, hopefully we'll
Speaker 1: find it out that. I mean, if the Cowboys play
Speaker 1: a clean game, if it's always going to be it's
Speaker 1: always if the Eagles, no i'm speaking to if I'm saying,
Speaker 1: I'm sure so, if Dallas can't continue making these making
Speaker 1: these turns, that that's what that's all. That's really my point. Clean.
Speaker 1: They have to clean it up because if they continue
Speaker 1: this play into the playoffs, it'll cost them. It would
Speaker 1: destroy them, not just cost them, it will destroy them.
Speaker 1: And you be having the same offseason that you had
Speaker 1: this past year. Yeah, No, you're right. And that's the
Speaker 1: thing is the NFC is so wide open at the moment,
Speaker 1: very much, so wide open that you have an opportunity
Speaker 1: to go in. If you win the division, you're gonna
Speaker 1: be the number one seed. That's plain and simple. The
Speaker 1: entire if the season were to end right now, NFC beasts,
Speaker 1: the entire NFC East is in the playoffs. Yep. I
Speaker 1: get it. All four teams way to go for Philadelphia's
Speaker 1: number one, and then you've got to it would be
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys at number five, then New York at
Speaker 1: number six, and then Washington at number seven. All four
Speaker 1: teams in the NFC East are in the playoffs, say
Speaker 1: in our hit pocket, aren't there? Absolutely? And they're like
Speaker 1: lint right now. One job that the stage for the
Speaker 1: Cowboys to all valid points in the Commander Playoffs, all
Speaker 1: valid points. I just I just want them to start.
Speaker 1: These are decisions. These aren't just just mistake. Are it
Speaker 1: just didn't go our way? Like? These are bad decisions.
Speaker 1: These these these throw over the middle egg, yes, and
Speaker 1: then the free play one was kind of a yeah
Speaker 1: that I can throw that one out the window. Okay,
Speaker 1: but either way it happened, right, But I even if
Speaker 1: you wanted to throw that one out the window. Like
Speaker 1: the penalties, the bad decisions, bad technique, bad bad bad bad,
Speaker 1: bad interception, this is recurring. Yep, this is not the
Speaker 1: first time or this isn't just okay, let's just disregard that,
Speaker 1: like we've seen this multiple weeks. Now, third week, it's
Speaker 1: the first time in four weeks. Come on, now, like
Speaker 1: stop it, But you do have to love how the
Speaker 1: offense is starting to come along, penalties and miscuses more,
Speaker 1: it's about calling three games. He's in his bag. Kellen
Speaker 1: is in his bag, except for the reverses that he
Speaker 1: keeps doing. Yeah, every once in a while he gets
Speaker 1: a little frisky or at least okay. But yeah, everyone's
Speaker 1: one who put some anchovies on that pizza just just realized.
Speaker 1: But for the most part he's calling a magnificent game.
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb is playing out of his Michael Galla Michael
Speaker 1: Galla bawling game. Yes, not only critical catches but physical
Speaker 1: grown man. I'm bigger than you, better than you. This
Speaker 1: is my ball. Period that the jokes starting to see
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup become Michael Gallup against Ceedee Lamb is just
Speaker 1: playing unconscious football right now. And that touchdown should have
Speaker 1: been a touchdown. Just don't even get me started on
Speaker 1: that one. And then you look at the four horsemen
Speaker 1: in the tight end room, Dalty Ferguson, Jake hurtleson right,
Speaker 1: Peyton Hamider shot and then even Sean Mcowan is getting
Speaker 1: in on the action. I like the trajectory. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: like the offense is looking great and then not to
Speaker 1: mention those two guys in the backfield, me Pollard and
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott. It sounds like we're complaining a little bit
Speaker 1: about the turnovers and the penalties. It's nitpicking, that's all
Speaker 1: it is. Because this offense is playing better. I think
Speaker 1: the confidence level is rising in the offense. No doubt
Speaker 1: they're playing better. As you get. What we're saying is
Speaker 1: the same things that the coaches are saying. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't call it nitpicking as much as I say be
Speaker 1: better identifying the two obvious areas, miss q's and penalties.
Speaker 1: You know, you have to be better. This is not
Speaker 1: breaking news. You're hearing it, and it's how we're gonna
Speaker 1: get hurt later, right, you're saying it. Deck Is said
Speaker 1: he said it after the game. He said, we have
Speaker 1: to be better tomorrow. They understand they cannot go forward
Speaker 1: getting ten plus penalties a game and expect this to
Speaker 1: be a super Bowl winning team. And that has to
Speaker 1: be frustrating knowing that. And I'll say it again, this
Speaker 1: is a team, from coaching to personnel, that is a
Speaker 1: super Bowl caliber team. But your talent and your potential
Speaker 1: versus your willingness and discipline. Those things all have to
Speaker 1: marry in order for you to achieve your gred, to
Speaker 1: even get to that point, they all have to marry. Well.
Speaker 1: When we come back here on Talking Cowboys, it's time
Speaker 1: to do some helmet stickers. Who achieved that greatness against
Speaker 1: the New York Giants in week number twelve of the
Speaker 1: regular season. We'll talk about it when we come back.

Speaker 1: miles per But the good news is Todd has at
Speaker 1: and T five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure,
Speaker 1: and he learned the best thing to do is stop
Speaker 1: running and toss her the backpack with the beef stew
Speaker 1: At and T five G. Fast, reliable, secure, It's not complicated.

Speaker 1: strawberry goes to Jake Ferguson Fergie Baby Fergie fought through
Speaker 1: injury to return to the game on two separate occasions
Speaker 1: and then ended up hurtling Pinnock's So why a strawberry,
Speaker 1: you ask, because Pennock drew the straw to try to
Speaker 1: tackle Ferguson and got buried. Oh you can go, vase,
Speaker 1: here we go. Yeah, berry buried in vace Jacob Hurtleson.
Speaker 1: I like it that. One of my favorite plays and

Speaker 1: from Jake Ferguson. And then you turn around and he
Speaker 1: had the hotel. Oh man, Yeah, they they've got some
Speaker 1: creativity in their celebration. I've got a cupcake. It's got

Speaker 1: give it to Layton vander Ashca. It was pretty sweet
Speaker 1: to see him out there playing like he was. I
Speaker 1: think I think he deserves a lot of credit. He's
Speaker 1: had a good season so far. He continues to play well.
Speaker 1: He's leading what he can in the uh in the
Speaker 1: defensive side of the football, and he's stepping up and
Speaker 1: he's hit. Did he outperform his brother from another mother
Speaker 1: who was at Jayalen, Yeah, played well. Actually I was.
Speaker 1: I saw a swipe. I didn't see a howl. There
Speaker 1: was a howl, there was Yeah, there were a couple
Speaker 1: of house yeah. Yeah, but yeah, the swipe early in
Speaker 1: the game on the fourth and one, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: it didn't love that decision. Yeah, you saw it in
Speaker 1: studio was like nope, nope, nope, don't like it. Nope,
Speaker 1: it didn't get it. Yeah, that could have been bad.
Speaker 1: I wanted so before we wrap up, I wanted to
Speaker 1: set this up for later in the week to see
Speaker 1: the somber No, it's a good thing. Okay, We've been
Speaker 1: talking about this for quite some time, and I think
Speaker 1: it's finally time to do it. It's time to give
Speaker 1: the defense a nickname. It's time to do it. I've
Speaker 1: heard some things kind of floating around, like the underdogs
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. I don't think this defense is
Speaker 1: full of underdogs. I really don't. This defense is loaded
Speaker 1: so I want to give some I want to give
Speaker 1: this defense a nickname. We don't have to do it
Speaker 1: right this second. This for later in the week. We're
Speaker 1: gonna do it on Friday. Sure, we're gonna do it
Speaker 1: on say it with your chest Friday. We were in
Speaker 1: week thirteen of the season. It's been plenty of time,
Speaker 1: plenty of time for this defense to show us they
Speaker 1: have some weak spots and they can struggle against the
Speaker 1: run of times. But guess what, this defense is still nasty,
Speaker 1: absolutely nasty. And of course I'm not going with Doomsday
Speaker 1: two point zero, nothing like that. This is this is
Speaker 1: a defense that deserves its own nickname. So fans out there,
Speaker 1: I want you to give us every single nickname you
Speaker 1: could potentially have anything. Throw us all these suggestions, the
