Oh. 43 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: So we are going to preview the Cowboys defense versus 44 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: that Chiefs offense and the Chiefs offense finding the rhythm 45 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday night. Foot football 46 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: put up forty one points, the majority of those coming 47 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 1: in the second half of Before we get into that, 48 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 1: anything come out of yesterday. It was a day off 49 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys, so kind of a slow Tuesday, right Rob, 50 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: It was slow. News wise was awesome. We touched on 51 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones on the fan yesterday and what the right 52 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: tackle situation might look like if Tyrant Smith comes back 53 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: as early as this week. Other than that, I mean, 54 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: hadn't been a whole lot of news in the in 55 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: the old been there. One thing I did want to 56 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: ask was is there any significance of having Debarcus Lawrence 57 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: back on the sideline again? The fact that he was 58 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: on the sideline. He hasn't activated that practice window yet, 59 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: we haven't gotten to that point, but he was around right. Yeah, 60 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,839 Speaker 1: he was, and I think he's all I think that'd 61 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: give some juice on the sideline when we talked about 62 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: kind he kind of sets the tone for this defense 63 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: when he's been out there, and he's also ramping up 64 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: his rehab. I mean, he's doing more deering practice off 65 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: to the side with Britt Brown than we've seen, so 66 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: I think he is getting closer. I'm trying to think 67 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: if there's any injuries. Ceedee Lamb had the arm contusion 68 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: that kept him out of the second half, but I 69 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: think if they weren't up by forty points, he probably 70 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: would have been back in there. I think he's supposed 71 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 1: to practice today most likely. That's good. And heck, I 72 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: know you've been on a sideline like that before and 73 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: you like the sounds of the sideline too. Love In 74 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 1: terms of the video and that was released yesterday, but 75 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: did you like seeing DeMarcus Lawrence back out there instead 76 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: of being in like a field level suite and dapping 77 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: up the guys when they come by, at least actually 78 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: having a presence on the sideline. I mean, tak is 79 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: one of the unquestioned leaders of your team and it's 80 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: got to be killing him. To be sideline and not 81 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: be a part of what's going on. Just gotta imagine 82 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: all of the work that goes into this for these 83 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: guys as as brothers, and an injury kind of ostracizes 84 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: you from the group and you finally can you know, 85 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: you're getting back to yourself and you feel healthy and 86 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: obviously you can walk on your foot again. You want 87 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: to be down on the sideline in any capacity. I 88 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't want to be away, you know, I'd be back 89 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: there with Chris, you know something like you know, like 90 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: something like that, because you just it's something that you 91 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: do every day. Football is a part of him. And 92 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: not only that, Like I said, he's one of the 93 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 1: unquestioned leaders of this team. Heck but loses his voice 94 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: and he's in the back with like cough drops and things. 95 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: Boy like we're sitting there with Chris. I'll be all here, Horsey. 96 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: Don't you worry about it? What is it like getting 97 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: a leader like that back? I saiah um, you know 98 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: to what your Hecken's point. I mean, he's one of 99 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 1: the leaders, the leaders that are definitely known on this team. 100 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: They think they miss his presence and anytime you can 101 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 1: have a guy like that present in whatever capacity he 102 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: can be. I'm glad that the team's allowing him to 103 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: be on the sideline. Sometimes they throw guys up in 104 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 1: the up and up the suite or in the stands uh, 105 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: typically a suite here, especially here in Dallas. Uh. But 106 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: you know it's it's also when they allow those guys 107 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: to be a part of it, because I mean, he's 108 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: a hype man. He's a hype man when he's when 109 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: he's playing. He's a hype man when he's not playing. 110 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: And you know, it's always good to have your boys there. 111 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: I'm giving you that extra juice. But yeah, in terms 112 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: of when you're when you're not playing, it's sucks. It 113 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: sucks when you're when you're used to being one of 114 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: the guys. And um, even if you're just a special teamer, right, 115 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't want to be on the outside 116 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: looking in, but especially when you're one of the leaders 117 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: on this team, the last thing you want to be 118 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: is feeling like you're just isolated to just being with 119 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: Britt Brown, which is not a bad thing. Britt's awesome, 120 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: but it's not where you want to be. It's not 121 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: funny either, It's not funny this is this is usually 122 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: a great tank week for the media, this kind of game. Yeah, 123 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: and obviously he's still in ir but you know, there's 124 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: been games where the Cowboys have matched up against a 125 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: great offense and how they gonna stop him? And I'm 126 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: trying to I'm thinking of like twenty eighteen against the Saints. Yeah, 127 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: where and he he will stand up in front of 128 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: the media and kind of send a message through the 129 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: media about the confidence level of the defense. He's coming 130 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: after you. He's always had that and that and I 131 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,679 Speaker 1: remember that game is particularly that was the best defensive 132 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: performance in a while for the Cowboys. So, uh, it's 133 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: that kind of matchup again. How do they how do 134 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: they stop this Chief's offense? Man, it's it's it's it's 135 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: it's a tasty one. They're going need every ounce of 136 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: that confidence going into this game. Cowboys in the Chiefs 137 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: have combined for eight hundred and thirty five total yards 138 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: per game entering the matchup, and that's the sixth most 139 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: all time in the NFL, sixth most since nineteen fifty 140 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: in a matchup later than Week eleven, So I mean 141 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: up there with Rams and Chiefs in twenty eighteen, which 142 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: we saw what that kind of game turned into, drunk 143 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: Bronco's Charger, Saints and Panthers, Eagles, Patriots, all of those 144 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: in twenty thirty, eleven, twenty eleven. And then it's the 145 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: Chiefs and the Cowboys coming up this week, and this 146 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,559 Speaker 1: is going to be a fun one. And like I mentioned, 147 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: the Chiefs are getting back on track, and first off, 148 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: I want to kind of dial it back a little 149 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: bit for the Chiefs standpoint and sort of deal with 150 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: what the I guess the slow start. Dealt with what 151 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: made them get off to such a slow start, What 152 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: were they doing wrong? And how have they since fixed that? Heckpone. Yeah, 153 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: I think initially teams were getting pressure. It's all derived 154 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: from the Super Bowl. I'm gonna I'm gonna say a word. 155 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: It's triggering for you, el ravo. And that's blueprint. I think. 156 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: I think teams saw in the Super Bowl that what 157 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes does when he gets under pressure. He you know, 158 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: some of the cardinal rules of sports apply. You can't 159 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: throw Layton, can't throw across your body. Obviously, Patrick Mahomes 160 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: has an IQ and he's a great decision maker. But 161 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: you saw at the beginning of the season, he was 162 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: starting to have some location problems, and I think the 163 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: pressure was starting to get to him a bit as well. 164 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, per se if there's anything that he 165 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: hasn't seen defensively, so it's hard for me to imagine 166 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: that he's confused by anything. I just think that some 167 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: of the decisions that he made clearly pointed out. That's 168 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: how you started to have those turnovers. And look, just 169 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: like with any other sport, whether we always use those 170 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: boxing analogies, there's a guy has not seen him admit 171 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: he was a boxer back and they may not remember 172 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: Ben Away. God, he would hit you anywhere except for 173 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: under your feet. I mean, he was that good. But 174 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: the cardinal rule of boxing is if you can't not 175 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,559 Speaker 1: escape a left hook, you shouldn't be boxing. Box you 176 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: shouldn't be boxing. And finally somebody cracked the code. I 177 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: think Tampa may have cracked the code and some of 178 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: those cardinal rules of football. Can't throw late across your body. 179 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 1: Some of the things that he's been able to get 180 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: away with because of his superior athleticism. I'm not saying 181 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: he's in decline, but some of those things are starting 182 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,319 Speaker 1: to catch up with him. It certainly seemed that way 183 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 1: early on, because Patrick Mahomes had never been stood up. 184 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: I mean, it had been to a point where he 185 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: had never really just laid in that. I mean, there 186 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: were statistics about it all the way through the early 187 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: parts of his career where he hadn't thrown under a 188 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,839 Speaker 1: certain amount of yards, or hadn't thrown a pick here, 189 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: having thrown a pick there. I mean, he was as 190 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: good as anybody to start a career in the history 191 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: of the NFL. But then he pitter pattered through the 192 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: middle of this season. And I think you're right. I 193 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: think it came from that Super Bowl and I carried over. 194 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 1: But it's also that offensive line, right, that offensive line 195 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: is not as good as what it used to be. Yeah, 196 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: that's and so I have to, honestly, I have to. 197 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 1: I'm blessed to be able to be an insider for 198 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: probably another podcast platform. And we had addressed this a 199 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: couple of weeks back back when they were three and 200 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: four and it and I pointed directly to the office 201 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: of line and officer. Line is totally brand new, totally 202 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: brand new. These guys have five new guys up front. Wow, 203 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 1: they I mean from the starting from the left side. 204 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: These guys drafted Creed Humphrey. Their center drafted him this year, 205 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: trace me after the right guard drafted him this year. 206 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: They had a guy their last year's drafty, the right tackle, 207 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: Lucas nng Uh. He was a twenty twenty draft he 208 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: but he opted out of the season because of the 209 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: covid Um. You got Joe Thuney that they picked up 210 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: from the from the Patriots, and the Orlando Brown they 211 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: picked up from the Ravens. These guys, literally all five 212 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: guys are brand new. So you're expecting Patrick Mahomes to 213 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: still be Patrick Mahomes with five new guys that don't 214 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: have any continuity the things that we've been talking about 215 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: in terms of Collins and and Terrence Steell, And we 216 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: don't want to move these guys around because of those 217 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: the commisit it might mess with the continuity. Imagine moving 218 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: all five pieces. So that's what these guys have sustained. 219 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: And I was one of the ones to stand up 220 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: on the table and say it's only a matter of time. 221 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 1: The lightships, the light switches, it's only a matter of time. 222 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: Because you're putting representing teams recognize that this was a 223 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: whole new front. So what are you gonna do if 224 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: you're a defensive coordinator. We're lighting them up, light them up, 225 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: let's bring pressure because these guys can't figure it out. 226 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: They don't know how to pass up off yet they 227 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: don't know how to communicate. They don't know exactly what 228 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: to do. So that was the issue early on. And 229 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: then Patrick Mahomes, I'm still Patrick Mahomes, So I'm still 230 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: gonna get out the pocket and do the things that 231 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: I do. And what does that force you to do? 232 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: Start making inherrent throws, start making throws that you used 233 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: to be able to make. That you just say, my 234 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: guys are better than your guys, and we're just gonna 235 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: make plays regardless. And guess what, sometimes there's fifty fifty 236 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: balls and those fifty fifty balls went the other way. 237 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 1: So that's what happened early on with the kanc Chiefs, 238 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: And that's why these guys are so dangerous because everybody 239 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: in the whole country who watches football and understands how 240 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: as these guys are offensively, the weapons that they have 241 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: offers a coordinator that they have the hey coach that 242 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: they have and the knowledge that he has a he's 243 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: a Jedi. I don't think there's any questions in regards 244 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: of that. And these guys are dangerous as they continue 245 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: to get better. Okay, that's all they're going to continue 246 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 1: to do is get better every single game. As these 247 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: guys continue to get familiarized with each other. Yeah, it's 248 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: kind of you know, the Sunday night game against Las 249 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: Vegas and obviously they went off in that game forty 250 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 1: one points. Got back to doing what they do. There 251 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: was a graphic up there about how much less Pat 252 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: Mahomes is being blitzed this year compared to the past. 253 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: It's like ten percent drop. The teams are playing more 254 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: coverage and honestly, like that's what you're seeing with Dak 255 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: to some degree, teams and we're like, look, we can't 256 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: do this. He's burning us every time. And so that's 257 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: that's the challenge with the great quarterbacks. So they're they're 258 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: doing more of that, and they haven't gotten a lot 259 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: of variants in their offense in terms of targets. You 260 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: look at the targets in there. I mean, we all 261 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: know about Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelsey. They're amazing players. But 262 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: beyond that they Okay, Tyreek's got one hundred and eleven 263 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,599 Speaker 1: targets this year, Kelsey eighty nine. The next guy is 264 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:10,079 Speaker 1: Hardman with fifty six, a huge drop off. So you know, satically, 265 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys are the best offense in the league. But 266 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: I think I think you can make the argument that 267 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: although maybe there's a similar approach to trying to play 268 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: the Cowboys offense, Cowboys have a little more balance in 269 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: terms of what they can do to counteract that. And 270 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: the Chiefs don't like to run that much anyway, So 271 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,079 Speaker 1: I think that's part of it, and I think Isaiah 272 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: just spoke to it too. I mean, Pat, there's probably 273 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: some frustration there when you get played like that, you 274 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: want to hit the big plays, and maybe he was 275 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: forcing some things and that's where the turnovers came, and 276 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 1: also not to mention, and added an element to their offense. 277 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: Will be back this week or is expected to be back, 278 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: and that's Clyde Edwards Hilaire. He had been out for 279 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Miss since we saw like another week, 280 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: what was that, he just sit out one more. Now 281 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: it's not a foregone conclusion, but his practice window has 282 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: started in there is a great chance quote unquote from 283 00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: Andy Reid that he does find the way. The reports 284 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: last week that he was practicing and practicing very well. 285 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: Kids ready, But basically last week they said no, not 286 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: so fast this week for the care We're gonna get 287 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: ready for this one. By the way, he's kind of 288 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: going along the same lines of career in season success 289 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott having a better season at the moment than 290 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, but Mahomes is the career leader in passer 291 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: rating at least during his time. This is the fourth 292 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: time that the season leader and the career leader in 293 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: passer rating have met in the same game past week 294 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: eleven or entering the week since nineteen ninety. The other 295 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: matchups this is a fun one Jim Harball versus Steve 296 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: Young in ninety five, John Elway versus Joe Montana another 297 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,359 Speaker 1: Kansas City Joe Montana, uh nineteen ninety three, San Francisco 298 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: Joe Montana and Phil Simms. So that was in nineteen 299 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: ninety So, man, there's this is This has got the 300 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: feelings of an historic matchup. But instant classic, yeah, instant, 301 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: and it's guys, I mean, Pat Mahomes has done so 302 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: much already. But he he's ascending and we know Dak 303 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: Prescott's sending. That's what's that's what's fun about it. Him. 304 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: Like the opener was great because it's Brady, and Brady's 305 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: a legend and all that, but these are two guys 306 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: that are I mean, gonna be going at it. I mean, 307 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: they don't play that often, but they're going to be 308 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: right at the top for years to come. That's what's 309 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: cool about it. But I just want to go back 310 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: to what you were saying about defenses playing coverage. I 311 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: think all around the league, that's what defenses have started 312 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: to do. You see more big nickel all over because 313 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: teams are willing to say I'm gonna rush three, rush four, 314 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: and drop everybody else back into coverage because you're you're 315 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: giving up so much in the passing league by staying 316 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: with conventional linebackers and not hybrid safeties that can cover 317 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: out in space. And I just look, they never have, 318 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: like you pointed out, they never have really have been 319 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: balanced with a running game. I think Edwards a layer. 320 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: I mean, him coming back doesn't doesn't unnerve me simply 321 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: because I feel like our defense is playing well enough 322 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: to this point that they can nullify whatever impact that 323 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: he'll have on this game. For me, I just want 324 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: to know how Dan Quinn schemes this up from a 325 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: coverage standpoint, because if you go back to the games 326 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: where the Tennessee Titans play, them just saying when they 327 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: came up against some pretty good defenses that often struggle, 328 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: they went into a shell of themselves. Right that Titans 329 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: game specifically, I went back and watched the first half 330 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: and the Titans just flat out dominated them. Not only that, 331 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: go back to the Bills game and you see those 332 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: games where defenses that they don't have to sacrifice by 333 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: coming after him. You talk about teams blitzing Patrick Mahomes, 334 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: and that was I saw a stat against Dak about 335 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: how he is rated when teams try to bliss. He's 336 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: picking guys apart and stop blitz pass the NFL right now, 337 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: and I think Mahomes has been since whenever going back 338 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: a couple of years. But that just says talks to 339 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: his IQ. Now, if you're a team that's gonna put 340 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: come after him with two or three down line, and 341 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: of course he's just gonna turn around and hand the 342 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: ball the clods. That was Hilaire. You know, so you'll 343 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: have to stay in a base to some degree. I 344 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: think I just think that for our dbs, for our 345 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: second there our safeties. This game is gonna be a 346 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: get a big game for them because they're gonna have 347 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: to play sound without question. Yeah. Yeah, these guys don't 348 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: run the ball much. They don't. They're not they're not 349 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 1: traditional in that in that way. They don't. They understand 350 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 1: that that's not where their strength of their team is. 351 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: The strength of their team is getting the ball in 352 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,959 Speaker 1: their playmaker's hands by any means necessary, and that's not 353 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: necessarily coming back and handing the ball off. These guys 354 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: run more screens than probably any team in the NFL, 355 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: and that's how they get their running plays exactly, that's 356 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 1: their running place. So I know people are all, these guys, 357 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: we get shut down their run. Yeah, you might better 358 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 1: shut down to run, but these guys are gonna run 359 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 1: screens all day long. And that's like a long handoff 360 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: exactly what it is, exactly what it is. It's it's 361 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 1: almost like, how do you define a run these days? 362 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 1: Because the analytics, yeah, behind the screen is like yeah, 363 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: I almost said geeks. Because some people don't think like 364 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: you should even run the ball anymore. And I and 365 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: that's I think there's value in running the ball, but 366 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 1: I think there is value also. And if they're loading 367 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: the box, it's kind of what the Cowboys did against 368 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: the Bucks. It's just yeah, spread it out to the outside. 369 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: They do with Tyreek Hill. I think Darryl Williams had 370 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: nine catches for one hundred and one yards, so you 371 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: can kind of stuff that into his run productions. That's 372 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: what it is. Yeah, I mean he's not even I 373 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:22,120 Speaker 1: mean I guess attribute wise, they're him and Clyde Edwards 374 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: there night and day. They're night and day skill wise. 375 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 1: So if Clyde Edwards decides to make his comeback this week, 376 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 1: which I'm pretty sure that's why he held him out 377 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,640 Speaker 1: last week, we can expect him to have at least 378 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: five or six screens in the game, and then you 379 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: have to watch him on the screens. You have to 380 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: watch Tyreek Hill on the screens to Keilsy on the screens, 381 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: so that again, you know, to that point, it's a 382 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: long handoff. And that's what they are, perfectly or they're 383 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 1: perfectly fine. People talking about how they don't have a 384 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: run game, and that's how they get their yardage inside 385 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 1: the box. Well, even in a blowout win against the Raiders, 386 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: forty one to fourteen was the score, and Patrick Mahomes 387 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: still hit fifty pass attempts. He still went thirty five 388 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: or fifty for four hundred plus and five touchdown. They're 389 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: gonna throw the ball around no matter if it's a 390 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: big lead. Not so much. They don't really have that 391 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 1: salt to way tough back like a Zeke who can 392 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: really kind of put it on the ground and just 393 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: keep rolling all the way down the field. Now. I 394 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: know Tony Pollard did that against that land of quite 395 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 1: a bit in that second half, which is great too, 396 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: But I don't know if Williams is that guy. I 397 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: don't know if Clyde Edwards, a layer, especially coming off 398 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: an injury, is that guy. However, they're gonna spread it out. 399 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 1: I mean, they're gonna spread that thing out and they're 400 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 1: gonna get it to their weapons, and they are all 401 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,959 Speaker 1: very dangerous, especially when they have a little bit of space. 402 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: And that's one thing that I want to hit when 403 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: we come back on the other side of the break. 404 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: How much space are the Cowboys gonna give them? Because 405 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: we know this already. The big play is a big 406 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: deal for the Cowboys defense. Can they snuff that out? 407 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: And how do they plan on snuffing that out? When 408 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:50,199 Speaker 1: we return with more talking Cowboys? Honey, big news? Gary? 409 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: Are you okay? Oh? I'm not Gary anymore. I'm Jackie Flash. 410 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: What see?

I thought of the pimple. Yeah 460 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: it was not. That was a straight battle scar. Yeah, 461 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: I mean I feel like that would be easy. Now. 462 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: I didn't spend a whole lot of time with a 463 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 1: helmet on. I was mostly on the sidelines when I played, 464 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: But it's instinctive. You're not thinking of Yeah, you're just instinct. 465 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: It's just a habit. It's like whenever you like, I 466 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: don't know, you're just knuckle punching somebody. You do it 467 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: like four times in a row. You'd give him a 468 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 1: little short of shouldered pat Yeah, I don't know. You 469 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: just bow hit him like that. There you go, look 470 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: at those instincts. Yeah, yeah, that was quick. You had 471 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: to be better than Dason's. That's a man that has 472 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: a baby around whatever. Fast All right back here on 473 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: talking Cowboys presented by Tostitos getting fans back in the game. 474 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: Oh man, we haven't trouble, so there you go. Um 475 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: mentioned this going into the break. The big play for 476 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 1: the Cowboys defensively has not really been the best calling 477 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 1: card for the dan Quinn's defense. There have been a 478 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 1: ton of improvements on that side of the football. The 479 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 1: big play has not been one of those. So how 480 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: do they avoid that against Kansas City? Is there are 481 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: a weakness that you've seen in Kansas City's offense that 482 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: can take away from the big player, maybe downgraded from there. 483 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 1: But is there anything that hack mother stands out to 484 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 1: you that where the Cowboys defense could try and maybe 485 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: something new to try and defend Kansas City. Well, I mean, 486 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: you talked about the targets for Hill and Kelsey. Kelsey 487 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: last year had fourteen hundred yards as a tight end, 488 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 1: and it just you know that they want to target him. 489 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 1: I believe trying to take Kelsey away immediately is going 490 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: to be one of your best options. And also with 491 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: Isaiah saying about the offensive line, you know that if 492 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: you can get that pressure, contain the running game, those things, 493 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: those aspects to their offense, you gotta eliminate certain things. 494 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: He'll man. You just pray that you know he doesn't 495 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: because because he can take it to the house anytime. 496 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 1: And we saw that it was at twenty seventeen at 497 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 1: the end of the game on a hell Mary ball 498 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: or not even really hell Mary pass, he takes it 499 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: and he scores in twenty seventeen at the last minute 500 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 1: to go into halftime. I hated that place. Isn't it crazy? 501 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: I mean, and it's just one. It's just one of 502 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 1: those plays that he can make it anytime, and so 503 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: you gotta try and cloud this guy. Put him in 504 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 1: a situation where you when he gets the ball you 505 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: get him down immediately. You have to pick one or 506 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 1: the other, right, I mean, you can't. You can't double 507 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: both every play. And I think I think it seems 508 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: like teams are taking more chances just saying we'll take 509 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 1: our chances with Kelsey, which is no fun in its 510 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: own right. But tyreek Hill is just he can run 511 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: past anybody on any given play wreck the game, embarrass 512 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: you with his speed. So you know, that's that's what 513 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: it seems like they're doing. And Kelsey's been he hasn't 514 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: had the production that he's normally had so far, but 515 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: he's eating up. He broke out Sunday night though, Yeah, 516 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: eating up and the Cowboys, you know, tight ends have 517 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: been a challenge at times, but Jayron Curse has been 518 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,439 Speaker 1: a nice addition in terms of that, you know, counteracting that. 519 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: And Jordan Lewis, what he was able to do against 520 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts was really impressive. Yeah, I mean Kyle Pitts 521 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: took its lumps early. I mean he was catching a 522 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: couple balls in those opening drives, but then it was 523 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: shut down from then on out. So I mean, I'm 524 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 1: not comparing Kyle Pitts at the moments. Travis Kelsey, but 525 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: Kelsey at some point, Yeah, I think they're gonna be 526 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: on a similar level. I think Kyle Pitts is that 527 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: type of player. But right this second, Kyle Pitts is not. 528 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 1: Right this second, Travis Kelsey, he said, what you gotta 529 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: put some weight on dah he will. Yeah, he's coming 530 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 1: out of floor. But I got a question for you 531 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 1: guys as far as dan Quinn is getting a lot 532 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: of accolades for his defense, but then in the same breath, 533 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: and I feel like this is disingenuous When people say, oh, 534 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,679 Speaker 1: this Cowboys defense can only be effective if they have 535 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,199 Speaker 1: a lead. Do you feel the same way about their defense? 536 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: Do you feel like, Okay, they are effective when they 537 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 1: play with the lead versus and then you give dan 538 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: Quinn the kudos that he's getting right now. I just 539 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 1: I don't think those two things go together. I don't 540 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:59,360 Speaker 1: think it's entirely fair because Minnesota showed that they can 541 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 1: stand up and win a game for you against a 542 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 1: pretty good team, or at least a pretty good offense. 543 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,400 Speaker 1: But I do think there's evidence over the for the 544 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: vast majority of this season, they have had the benefits 545 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: of we can tee off because we got, we got 546 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 1: leads coming. But it all works together because the Cowboys 547 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: are posting all a lot of these points because they're 548 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,959 Speaker 1: they're tied for second and interceptions in the league. I mean, 549 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,400 Speaker 1: they got fourteen picks, They're right up there in terms 550 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: of takeaways. They're doing their part to help the Cowboys 551 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: offense as well. It is kind of tied together. I 552 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: don't think it's entirely fair, but but that is You're right, like, 553 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: that's kind of the narrative right now, is that they're 554 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: protecting the defense. You can look at two of the 555 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: last three wins and say that Patriots as well. You 556 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: came from behind in that game too. I mean, I 557 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: know you played with a lead late and then basically 558 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: gave that up and went into ot But I mean 559 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: the Patriots and the Vikings game, I think you could 560 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,439 Speaker 1: take as examples of the defense playing well enough for 561 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: you without a big lead. Every road game so far 562 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: this year has been decided by a single score. It's 563 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 1: been so every road game. Keep that in mind going 564 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: into Arrowhead, but it's been decided by a single possession 565 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: every single game so far this season on the road. 566 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 1: That doesn't say that the Cowboys have been playing with 567 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: the lead. They've only lost one of those games so 568 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: and that was the first one to Tampa Bay. Yeah. 569 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: The one thing is it's been hard to test their 570 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: run defense this season. It's been very hard, and Denver 571 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: was able to do it, jumped out early and it 572 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,479 Speaker 1: didn't go well at all. But this is a this 573 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,719 Speaker 1: is a totally different matchup. We just talked about how 574 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: they're you know, they're not going to hand the ball 575 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 1: off thirty times, so I guess their luck runs out. 576 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: Maybe Clyde Edwards a layer coming back. Now the Cowboys 577 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: were able to pass over a healthy sae Quon Barkley 578 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: and a healthy Christian McCaffrey, and now they get Clyde 579 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: Edwards a layer. But they're gonna get a client, all right. Um, 580 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: In terms of a big play, to address your question, 581 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: you can't stop these guys from having big plays, but 582 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: you can't limit them. That's I'm just gonna go ahead 583 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: and say that. It's like it's like facing freed Muhammad Ali. 584 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: I think you're not gonna get jabbed. You can let 585 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: me how many times you get jabb but you're gonna 586 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: get jabbed. So they're gonna get their big plays. You 587 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: have to pick your poison. So I think teams are 588 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: starting to take the approach in terms of trying to 589 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: find a way to double Hill some way, somehow he does. 590 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: So many of his routes are across the across the field, 591 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: and if you're playing man, you can't. You can't play man. 592 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: He's too quick. He's too fast. He's the fastest doing 593 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: the league, hands down. He's too quick. He's too fast, 594 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: So you can't jam him at the line of scrammisca. 595 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: He'll shake you up. If you play off, he's gonna 596 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: run right by you. If you try to double him, 597 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: then somebody else wins. So it's hard to stop him. 598 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: So you're gonna have to say, hey, I'm gonna put 599 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: him one man on him, and I'm gonna put the 600 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: far safety and the near safety. You guys both have 601 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: to keep your eyes on him. So you're literally trying 602 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: to have three guys stop one person. So that's why 603 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: these other guys start having big games. So you're playing 604 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: too safeties high. Yeah, that man, I don't. I guess 605 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: you have too. He plays if you play single. Hi, 606 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 1: I understand this through film, saying you watch film too, 607 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: you can't guard him. Man, No, no, it's impossible. And 608 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: if you play zone, if you play a single high zone, 609 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: he's just gonna run across the field to the gap 610 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: over the other corner. Right. So essentially the blueprint is 611 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: that two safeties high and instead of going man, you're 612 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: passing them off. You oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you 613 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: have you have to pass them off and you have 614 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 1: to to your point the game, Tennessee. What Tennessee did 615 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: so well against these guys was get hands on guys 616 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,719 Speaker 1: as they crossed their zone. They were physical with him. 617 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: Get my hands on you. You're gonna run by me, 618 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna push the crap out of you or 619 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 1: your jam you up a little bit, just to knock 620 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: you off just a little bit as you go into 621 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: the next zone. And then guess what our communication has 622 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: to be such that the next zone that you're going to, 623 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 1: my guy needs to be on his piece and Ques 624 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: and be ready. We need our guys up front, four 625 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: guys up front to try to get home as much 626 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: as possible. It sucks that Gregory, it sucks Thatt d 627 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: laws out, but we've been able to generate pressure without it. 628 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: But our four guys are going to have to try 629 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: to get home because these guys don't like to accept 630 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: the fact that he that his guys are covered. He 631 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: hates it. That's what's got him in trouble this year. 632 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,479 Speaker 1: A lot of those miraculous what the things that make 633 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes great are the same things that make him 634 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: turn over. You know, you pretty turnover prone. So those 635 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: great plays or throws across across the formation, across the coverage, 636 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: all those kind of things, those become jump balls. And 637 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: as long as you have guys that are being physical, 638 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: and as long as you have guys that are staying 639 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: in their hip pockets and you're like a pinball going 640 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: down the field, those opportunities will present themselves. But just understand, 641 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: your character has to be such that you have to 642 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: be able to bounce back and put the last play 643 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: away because they're going to get their big plays. It's 644 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: gonna happen the same way the week at our big places. 645 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: It's gonna happen on both sides. Two things to play 646 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: Devil's advocate to what you just said. One too high. 647 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: Safety is something that a lot of defense have done 648 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: against the Cowboys this year, right and in the Cowboys 649 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: offense to their demise because the Cowboys have picked them 650 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: apart because of the weapons, because of the options and 651 00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: the balance in terms of their games. They'll just turn in, 652 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: hand it off and pound you with Zeke and Tony exactly. 653 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: We have that option. Yeah, I don't know if Kansas 654 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: City has the extent of that option, but I think 655 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: they have an option to do that as well, especially 656 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 1: with as bad as the Cowboys run defense has been 657 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: at times this year. Because you think about it both ways. 658 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: Sure it's not Zeke, it's not Pollard, but Edwards, Hilaire 659 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: and Williams can still run the football efficiently. I mean, 660 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: we saw what Denver did. Melvin Gordon and Javante Williams 661 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: can run the ball efficiently as well, so too high safety. 662 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: It definitely concerns me if there's those options as a 663 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: whole from an offense. Secondly, you mentioned being physical. Has 664 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 1: there been a consistency of physicality on this Cowboys defense 665 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: this year, because I don't know if there has been. 666 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: We've seen moments Denver, for instance, where there's people sent 667 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: standing in the gap, hesitant to be physical at the 668 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: point of attack. So are those two things that the 669 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense can afford to whiff on because I feel 670 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: like if they whiff on, no, yeah, WHI no, not 671 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: an option this week. So let's go ahead and say 672 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: that right now. I don't know where I saw it. 673 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: I was actually meant to send it to you guys. 674 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:04,959 Speaker 1: Yesterday there was a highlight. Somebody put together a highlight. 675 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: I think it was just the NFL sounds of the 676 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: game for Tyreek Hill and it was them just following 677 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 1: him around and his releases. He just excuse me, excuse me. 678 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: He's literally just saying excuse me. He's saying excuse me 679 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: every single time he's killing guys off the line of scrimmage, 680 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: and he's laughing about it, right him and the DV 681 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 1: you are laughing about it. And if the ball doesn't 682 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: come his waysycha, Andrew Luck saying thank you whenever he 683 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: gets good job, whenever he get hit. But I mean, 684 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 1: so you can't whip. You have to these guys have 685 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: to be intent on making sure that everything in practice 686 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: this week is hands on, all our dbs, hands on 687 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, getting these guys freaking get a jam. Right. 688 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: If you don't get a jam, the next man gets 689 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: a jam. Bump him off as straight because he's gonna 690 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: run across. He's like a little little pinball where he 691 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 1: literally just weave his way through. And as long as 692 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahome has time back there, he will sit there 693 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 1: and hold the ball and wait. If you play zone, 694 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 1: if you play too high right, he if he has time, 695 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: he will literally just run across from one zone to 696 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: the second zone to the third zone, all the way 697 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 1: across the field out the back end. He's coming out 698 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: the back shoot right. Or if you try to go 699 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: single high now you're trying to pass stuff off. You're 700 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: taking the attention of that one safety and saying when 701 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: he crosses the field, try to cut him off. Well 702 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: then what Now? You got these other guys that are 703 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 1: getting free. So it's going It's going to happen, but 704 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 1: you have to limit it. And I think the only 705 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: way that you could limit it is by being physical 706 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: and staying in the hip pocket. Whenever the ball is 707 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: in the air, they're gonna get their catches, but they 708 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 1: better be contested because if you allow these guys to 709 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: get the confidence to just catch the balls freely, or 710 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: trying to play cover three and play saft or cover 711 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: four and play soft it's gonna be a long day. 712 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,879 Speaker 1: And you're saying, hip pocket, that's just closing, closing that hill. Yeah. 713 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: So but I like what you what you're saying and 714 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: playing the devil's advocate in this in this situation is 715 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: good because you saw what Denver did versus us, and 716 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 1: they were effective in that they were passing off CD, 717 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 1: they were plassing off of Mary. But again, those guys 718 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:58,439 Speaker 1: were not healthy. We saw that and it bolded well 719 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: for you. But then the next opponent steps up and 720 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,399 Speaker 1: tries to do that, they burn them the same thing 721 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: that the difference is and you pointed out it's our 722 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: running game. I mean, I guess on paper right now, 723 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: I can see Dan Quinn going with four guys, one 724 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: linebacker and six dvs because he has the safeties, he 725 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: has the DV. So I'm sure, uh, Jordan Lewis is 726 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: gonna play damn near the whole game. Obviously, we know 727 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 1: Javon Jon Curse is gonna play the entire game. But 728 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 1: that's the only approach that you can take. And I 729 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 1: know they're gonna switch it up too. They're gonna switch 730 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: it up as the Chiefs play a lot of trips 731 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: formation and those screens that you're talking about. You go 732 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: round a guys step back and next thing you know, 733 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,760 Speaker 1: Terik Hill takes the ball and you're still there bumping 734 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: them off of the line scrimmage. Being physical at the 735 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: line scrimmage is going to be important. Now what does 736 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: that also get you if you with He said, so 737 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 1: that's a that's a that's a big time gamble is 738 00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: The other thing they'll do, too, is to try to 739 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,839 Speaker 1: get Kelsey and they'll line him up right next to 740 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill, and like we just talked about it, he 741 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 1: draws so much attention. Now Kelsey's free and can kind 742 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 1: of win his matchup that way. Um, there was a 743 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: staff from CBS. I think that Cover two and Cover 744 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: four have been the most popular coverages against the four. 745 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 1: Reason you can't you really can't do anything else because 746 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: of that speed element. But to your question, I do 747 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 1: think I don't think physicality has been a problem for 748 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: this defense this season. Actually, I think it's kind of 749 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: been their calling card. You only pointed out one game 750 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,800 Speaker 1: though I did, And yeah, I'm trying. I'm trying to, 751 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 1: but they can't. You guys are like they can't miss tackles. 752 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I think they had fourteen miss tackles against Denver. 753 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn said, it was like three or four last 754 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 1: Week's so much better, so much more sound, and so 755 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,399 Speaker 1: much more physical. This has to be the most physical game, 756 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 1: no doubt about it. I don't think that more so 757 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:58,359 Speaker 1: than New England. Oh yeah. And the reason why Tennessee 758 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 1: just disrespected Can City like that, not only because of 759 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: the pressure, not only because of the bad decisions by Mahomes, 760 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:05,959 Speaker 1: but they hit the crap out of you. They wipe 761 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: their faces. That's the thing. What's what's what's the culture 762 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 1: of the what's their identity in Tennessee physical. We're gonna 763 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: outfield will on both sides of anybody that plays Tennessee. 764 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 1: You know you're you're coming out beat up right, You're 765 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 1: going old Rabel right, You're gonna get beat The craps 766 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,439 Speaker 1: are gonna get beat out of you. Offensively, defensively, special teams. 767 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 1: We're hitting you in the mouth. If we don't do 768 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 1: anything else, you're gonna leave Buddy, bloody and Bruce. That 769 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 1: has to be our approach because Kansas City doesn't like that. 770 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: These is like the almost I almost use the fraternity. 771 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 1: It's like the capitals of the fraternity. He's like these 772 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: like these are like the pretty boys, right, these are 773 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,359 Speaker 1: the pretty boys of the wie. Now they're they're nice 774 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: and then they're cleaning. They can make plays, but they 775 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: don't want to get hit. They don't want to get hit. 776 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: Are you in a frat? I'm not fra Hey, you 777 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,399 Speaker 1: just called the caps the pretty boy pretty boy around 778 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 1: mirrors everything else. You call the soft soft piece pretty boys. 779 00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:00,479 Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's que days, so they are real. Okay, 780 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 1: se counters day today, my boys spice. Let me know 781 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: that this morning. But no, I mean, but you want 782 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 1: to hit these guys. I don't think outside of the 783 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,239 Speaker 1: Tennessee game, they haven't been hit, and I don't think 784 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: they like it. I really don't think they like it. 785 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: I don't think they respond well to it. So our 786 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,320 Speaker 1: guys need to flop. Donovan Wilson, strap them up, curse, 787 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 1: strap them up, right, Kayze, don't do what you did 788 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. Strap them up. Okay, I 789 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: need everybody out there strapped up flat, Mica, this is 790 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: your time to freaking unleash it. Dude, put your juggernai 791 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: helmet on and run through somebody's soul, vander Ash, I 792 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: haven't seen a wolf call all year. I've seen one 793 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 1: wolf call that was after Jalen left. I need the 794 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: wolf call out because we need all two hundred fifty 795 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 1: pounds you running through somebody's chest cavity of this game. 796 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 1: We have to outphysical these boys to make them second 797 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: guess anything quick underneath coming at you. That is all right, 798 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 1: And defensive line wise, it's where it's gonna start. Up front. 799 00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: We have got to apply that pressure and we've got 800 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: we've got to relegate. Have our four guys up front 801 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: or however we're gonna switch this up three four guys 802 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 1: up front. Well, we gotta get physical. We we've got 803 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: to get penetration, and we've got to get home. But 804 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,760 Speaker 1: you point out Micah Micael can be a big difference 805 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 1: maker in this game. Yeah, good through somebody's soul. Yeah, 806 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 1: I love that. I want to take that and make 807 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 1: it a cowbite Aaron, Yeah, cow by exactly before we leave. 808 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: Let's make it happen. All right, let's take our second 809 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: break when we come back.

I'm trying 855 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 1: to this Cowboys. You understand what I'm picking it up? 856 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: All right, real quickly before we wrap things up, Kansas 857 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 1: City tackles in one words, one word from each of you. 858 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:28,279 Speaker 1: Offensive tackles for Kansas City have been trash. Okay, okay, yeah, yeah, 859 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,439 Speaker 1: that's I would probably go a little bit under. Okay, 860 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:34,720 Speaker 1: I'd probably say not adequate. But actually, I mean Isaiah 861 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 1: mentioned there're two rookies on the interior. They've been part 862 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,120 Speaker 1: of the strength of their line, and they've had injuries 863 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 1: on the tackle spot too, like Rimors has been out right, 864 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean look going back to the Super Bowl, 865 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 1: like Heck mentioned like that's it's been a problem. You know. 866 00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 1: Tray Smith out of Tennessee, he's playing the right guard spot. 867 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:58,400 Speaker 1: Creed Humphrey, who was one of the more touted interior 868 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 1: offensive lineman in front of last raft out of OUH 869 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 1: is playing the center spot, and he's been actually really 870 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 1: good and oh Brown, I got veterans on the incaps, 871 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,239 Speaker 1: but but they haven't been great though, well not in 872 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:11,479 Speaker 1: day on one incap. The Kyle Long is out. Still 873 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 1: exactly that was I think that was their game plan initially, 874 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: Let's get some young guys on the inside or obviously 875 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,959 Speaker 1: except for the guard from New England, or some bets 876 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 1: on the outside. And yeah, and Kyle Long has been 877 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 1: on the pup list for quite some time now. He's 878 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,359 Speaker 1: expected to return soon, but still no word on whether 879 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 1: or not it'll be this week or not. So without 880 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: Randy Gregory, without DeMarcus Lawrence again, how does how did 881 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,760 Speaker 1: the Cowboys generate some pressure? I'm gonna start with Isaiah 882 00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,800 Speaker 1: on this one because I feel like we have something coming. Yeah. No, 883 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: I'm in agreeance with the Heckma train in terms of 884 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:49,959 Speaker 1: putting Parsons on the wait a minute, hey, for this game, 885 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 1: but for this game reason being, reason being, this guy, 886 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,759 Speaker 1: out of any quarterback that we've faced so far this year, 887 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,400 Speaker 1: can hurt you the most if he gets outside the 888 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 1: pocket and you don't have somebody running after him, Our 889 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 1: defensive alignment won't catch him. We have some really athletic 890 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,839 Speaker 1: defensive alignment. Our current guys that are playing won't catch him, 891 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 1: so you need somebody that's gonna put some heat on him. 892 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes is not like getting hit. He does not 893 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 1: and he does not do a great job of ball security. 894 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 1: We've seen that this year. He runs with the ball 895 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 1: in one hand. He's all kinds of He's not worried 896 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: about ball secured. He's worried about the big play down 897 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 1: the field. And that's why I think if you have 898 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: a two hundred and forties plus pounder, a guy who 899 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 1: runs a four to three chasing after him, he can 900 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 1: cause him some issues and give us the opportunities if 901 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 1: Parsons hits him, chance for a fumble, if Parson puts 902 00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 1: pressure on him like we like we know he could, 903 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,839 Speaker 1: then we get those opportunities down the field for those 904 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 1: in errand throws that Patrick Mahomes has likes that he 905 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,319 Speaker 1: likes to make because he likes those fifty fifty balls. 906 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: He thinks his guys are just that much better than 907 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: the defenders. Damn sure does. So you're on board. Obviously, 908 00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 1: no surprise there. Wouldn't that be funny if Heckman was like, 909 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: you know, but I think he's better as a linebacker. Well, 910 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: you know. I mean the thing is, because of their 911 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 1: lack of a run identity, you don't need a true 912 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 1: just linebacker in this In this game, you need people 913 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,840 Speaker 1: to get pressure and you need dbs. I don't know. 914 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 1: I really like the way that he had a head 915 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:18,800 Speaker 1: esteem though against Atlanta, and we're able to kind of 916 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 1: kind of control that edge a little bit more coming 917 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 1: from the second level, more so than I think he 918 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 1: had done previously in that specific mindset. If they brought 919 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 1: him on a blitz on multiple occasions, I think that 920 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 1: could work as well. I do as well. However, majority 921 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: of the day, right think about let's just go ahead 922 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 1: and just say that Kensey's gonna have sixty snaps. It's 923 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: safe to say that kensa City has sixty snaps. Of 924 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 1: those sixty snaps, how many times will he really affect 925 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 1: this game at that level, They're not running a lot 926 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 1: of stuff within that five yard range. Well, and that's 927 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:55,799 Speaker 1: what dan Quinn mentioned when he was asked about UH 928 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,400 Speaker 1: to the effect of he's generating a ton of pressure. 929 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 1: How do you fee you feel encouraged that using him 930 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 1: the right way? You guys know, how much I loved 931 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:04,880 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn Press conversation said, what an awesome question. I 932 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,239 Speaker 1: guess that's saying you're doing a good job Dan, or 933 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 1: you're a dumb ass. But he said, he pointed out 934 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,320 Speaker 1: that you know he's going vertical a lot from the 935 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,319 Speaker 1: linebacker position as well. But you guys points well taken 936 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 1: like this is a matchup where you have to get 937 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 1: to Pat Mahomes. In the conversation, I'm gonna steal this 938 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:23,879 Speaker 1: directly from Nick Eatman, and he said, man, I want 939 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 1: to use I want to use Michael Parsons like they 940 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 1: used Troy Paulamalo. And I don't see nothing wrong with that. 941 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:32,960 Speaker 1: You know, just a guy that you line up everywhere 942 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 1: and you know he can be effective from anywhere on 943 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 1: the field. Last week against Atlanta, the one rush where 944 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 1: he went he even tweeted Almari Cooper, I told you 945 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 1: my dead leg was better than your, you know, and 946 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:45,480 Speaker 1: he would then and the guy didn't even put a 947 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 1: hand on him. That's just the kind of speed, the 948 00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 1: athleticism that he presents from the from the from the edge, 949 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:53,200 Speaker 1: and even when he takes a bad angle, you see 950 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 1: the speed that he could do to still get to 951 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 1: the outside and not give up contain. He's just a 952 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 1: special guy. And coming up against a player like Patrick Mahomes, 953 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,200 Speaker 1: I see him different. I see him as a quarterback 954 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 1: that can extend plays with his legs. No, he does 955 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 1: not want to get touched, but he can extend plays 956 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,479 Speaker 1: with his legs, and they go to that scrambled drill 957 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 1: and that's where he will make a mistake if you're 958 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 1: touching him already, right, and so he's gonna try and 959 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 1: extend to play, get something across his body. And that's 960 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 1: where he was nightmarish at the beginning of the season 961 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:24,279 Speaker 1: trying to do this and also just looking at the 962 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 1: role that they're getting on. Look at the games that 963 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,400 Speaker 1: they've played, look at the teams that they've beat, so 964 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 1: a lot of that maybe fools gold up until this point. 965 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 1: And I believe that this Dallas defense, which has been 966 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 1: underappreciated to a certain degree, can actually put their stamp 967 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 1: on this game. And that be the reminder because we 968 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:45,239 Speaker 1: hadn't seen an offense like this since Tampa as far 969 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 1: as the weapons that they have, but we hadn't seen 970 00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:51,759 Speaker 1: a team move formations like this either since Minnesota or 971 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:55,879 Speaker 1: maybe against the Patriots where they They're doing so many 972 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,600 Speaker 1: different things out of different formations. So look, it's just 973 00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:00,799 Speaker 1: gonna be a chess match, and Dan Quinn is worth 974 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:03,280 Speaker 1: this salt. You're gonna see it this week.
