Yeah, I can't do it. 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:08.040 It's definitely, it's definitely forty dollars. But the players lound 0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:11.160 sponsored by twos Titos, the official chip and dip of 0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:14.480 the Dallas Cowboys. Cannot forget about our sponsor. For guys, 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:18.560 we are getting close. We're getting close to this. This 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.800 matchup on on on Sunday, man And what's exciting for 0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:25.680 me is the fact that the Miami Dolphins are playing 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:29.320 the Kansas City Chiefs in Germany. The NFL dropped the 0:03:29.320 --> 0:03:32.799 ball on that one. What they dropped the ball? Tell y'all, 0:03:32.880 --> 0:03:35.000 I'm telling you what. I have visions of a of 0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:37.440 a Final four weekend right now. Maybe this is a 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:44.640 preview for the final four for Championship weekend. Feeling good, boy, Yeah, 0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:47.360 I'm feeling real good. I'm telling you, dog, I got 0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:51.080 so listen. This is what you're talking. That's be out there. Man, 0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:53.400 what it sounds like. Hey, I'm just saying preview. 0:03:53.520 --> 0:03:55.120 I said previewview. 0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:58.960 You might have a preview the final four for Championship weekend. 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:02.160 But but the but you know, Roger Goodell said, let's 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:03.600 do it in Germany. We don't have to do it 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.120 state side. I don't know who lost home game. I 0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:08.200 think it may have been Miami. But man, there's some 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:10.600 big games coming up this weekend. Yeah, without a doubt, 0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:13.480 there's a lot of big time games. The number one, 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:17.160 as we all know, it's gotta be Philly versus Dallas Cowboys. 0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:20.039 And as we have the you know, Washington Commanders versus 0:04:20.040 --> 0:04:21.760 Eagles game going on in the background. 0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:26.080 Look this defense, it can be had, It can be had. 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:28.240 Going earlier into this week, I'm like, in my man, 0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:30.200 I'm thinking all these mismatches are gonna be too much. 0:04:30.200 --> 0:04:31.200 Philly gonna route them. 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:34.040 But as we get closer the game day, I start 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:35.800 looking a bit a little bit more and more hearing 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.760 y'all talk about this offense Roland and Dak Prescott and 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:41.080 all that gus stuff. I'm starting to swape me a 0:04:41.120 --> 0:04:43.440 little bit because this defense can be had. We don't 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:46.479 know how healthy Jalen Hurts is. I mean, he's ducking 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:49.440 in dodging questions about his knee. So I don't know. 0:04:49.520 --> 0:04:52.360 Man's starting to you know, favorite the boys maybe a 0:04:52.400 --> 0:04:54.080 little bit here, Man, I don't know. I don't know. 0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:54.440 We'll see. 0:04:54.520 --> 0:05:00.880 Well that's all for Heckman to talk positively about about no, no, no, 0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:03.080 And then you go back and watch the game from 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:04.719 last week and how they played, and you're like, you 0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:06.640 know what, the defense may be a little susceptible to 0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:10.080 some stuff that I let me tell you this. Okay, 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:14.440 time prove consistency, all right. What the office did last 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:17.480 week has happened one time this season. What they how 0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:21.840 they performed last week against the L. A. Rams has 0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:25.480 happened one time this season. The other forty point games 0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:27.840 they would straight up blowouts. We wasn't scoring in the 0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:31.159 red zone, kicking field goals, defenses getting points, but the 0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:34.719 offense were. They weren't getting as many points outside of 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:36.440 last week. So I just want to try to bring 0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:38.840 you back down to reality real quick before you get 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:39.400 into that. 0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:40.280 Man, I remember when Dak. 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:43.200 Prince got was throwing forty times, no touchdowns, all stuff. 0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:44.960 It's possible. I'm just saying, but I don't want you 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:47.240 to feel that way. You know, just based off of 0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:49.640 one he looked down that office before he did he 0:05:49.680 --> 0:05:50.080 looked at that. 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:52.760 He did. Yes, here we go. 0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:57.280 Objection you go with all of that. As you were 0:05:57.320 --> 0:05:59.360 looking at the all twenty two, what did you see? 0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:04.320 You saw Sam Howe missing wide open stuff out there. 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.520 Samhow finished the game well. He passed for fifty to 0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:11.400 fifty two attemptsright, thirty nine thirty nine completion, three hundred 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:13.840 and ninety seven yards against. 0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:16.640 This vaunted, big, strong, tough. 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:22.640 Philadelphia Eagles defense, four touchdowns, one interception, and he missed 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:24.400 a lot of plays. I'm just saying, when you go 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:26.400 back and look at it, for all of the huff 0:06:26.440 --> 0:06:29.480 and puff about the Philadelphia Eagles defensively, there's a lot 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.080 of stuff going on with him. Go to the film 0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:34.520 study Isaiah stand Back. He does a wonderful job of 0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:38.120 drawing it up, just showing you how this Dallas Cowboys 0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:41.480 offensive line if they can script the same way. And 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:44.599 I'm not saying letter for letter from what the commanders did? 0:06:44.880 --> 0:06:48.719 You have an opportunity to blow the doors off of 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:52.400 a team and set the NFC and set the NFC 0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:55.839 on notice. I'm telling you, listen, hold on, go ahead. 0:06:56.839 --> 0:06:59.560 But that's the thing that but that's the thing you 0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:01.680 what do we do? We go back and we look 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:04.599 at the tape and we see a team that had opportunities, 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:08.760 that had opportunities not only in passing but also Russian. 0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:12.920 The numbers are here, Brian Robinson Jr. Ten Rushes fifty. 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.400 Come on, now, come on, now, you have to look 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:17.640 at the situation. You have to look at a situation, 0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:19.760 especially for Tony Poller. What have we been talking about 0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:21.960 all week? This running game has to get what it 0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:24.040 has to get going. This is the game where you 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:27.200 possibly can get it going. Because right now the Philadelphia 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:29.800 Eagles are giving up chunk yards? He said, are we 0:07:29.880 --> 0:07:33.960 doing twenty out the playing again? Because it's morning? It's morning, bro, 0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:36.600 Because I listen this one, I don't understand. Okay, listen, 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:38.960 the Cowboys are playing well. Okay, they only lost two 0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:41.680 games this season, all right, you could only beat who 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:42.360 they put out there. 0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:45.000 In front of you. Fair same thing with the Eagles. 0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:46.679 So we go back and look at the all twenty 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:49.440 two and who was susceptible to Wood. Don't forget about 0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:52.560 the Cardinals game. Okay, it was Josh Dobbs. We talked 0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:55.120 about Sam Hobby. It was Josh Dobbs that it was 0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:57.880 leakas there. We're still talking about the LA Chargers. How 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:02.520 many passes that Justin Herbert missed when Keenan Allen was no. 0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:07.720 But you just said this about then Commanders. I'm saying 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:10.840 it's the same like this, This is the exact same thing, 0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:12.920 the same way that that we can look at the 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:14.520 Eagles and say they're beatable. 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:15.800 I'm I'm never gonna say that. 0:08:15.800 --> 0:08:17.480 We're probably gonna blow the dose off of them, but 0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:20.840 they're beatable because that's that's that's the game of football. 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:23.040 Like the officive coordinator, the defensive coordinators got to figure 0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:25.080 out ways to get guys open. And sometimes it happens. 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:30.120 Sometimes we miss quarterbacks, misreceivers, but blow the doors off 0:08:30.160 --> 0:08:34.000 year on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and you get coming here 0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:34.679 on Thursday. 0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:37.839 I'm leaning up and not a defense not I just 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:39.480 don't happen. I'm leaning us. I'm leaning up. 0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:41.440 And so what I was telling you about yesterday was 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:43.120 his offensive line. I was telling you about the offense. 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:44.640 I was talking about A J. Brown, I was talking 0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:47.120 about Davonte Smith. I was talking about Swift. I was 0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:49.360 talking about the guys that's really getting things done. That 0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:52.959 offense is still A J. Brown is dominating. I can't 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:55.160 take anything away from that, and if I could, I would, 0:08:55.320 --> 0:08:57.560 honestly I would, all right, but I didn't see that. 0:08:57.600 --> 0:08:59.360 I'm looking on the defensive side of the ball, and 0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:02.000 I'm telling you, as big and bad as they have been, 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:05.400 as much as we talked about Philadelphia's defense being the 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:08.360 big bad wolf in the NFC East, it just doesn't 0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:09.200 appear that way. 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:11.880 Even look, they got Jalen Smith, Kobe Dean, all. 0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:17.720 Of these guys at Georgia Philadelphia team right defensively, Mike 0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:20.600 McCarthy has got to be looking at this Philadelphia team saying, 0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:22.960 we gotta take our shots with Ceedee Lamb. What have 0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:25.079 we been saying, Ceede Lamb's been begging for the ball, 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:28.040 We've been looking for these opportunities. Well, look this this 0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:31.080 Philadelphia team is gonna play him man the man. They're 0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:32.880 not it's not gonna be no trick bag out there 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:36.040 for him and Brandon Cooks. They're gonna be in single man, 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:39.240 single safety high and if you can't eat with that. 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.560 You can't eat nowhere in the league. And come on, 0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:44.160 y'all played the game. You tell me no, No, I 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:46.880 just told you. I don't know. 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:49.839 So when you talking about these opportunities that we gotta 0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:52.480 get yes or the Cowboys gotta get ceedee Lamb, gotta 0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:55.360 get galloped, gotta get Cooks involved. So are we saying 0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:57.240 going into this game? You know, we talked about it 0:09:57.240 --> 0:09:59.360 earlier this week. Hot his offense is evolving a little bit, 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:03.240 saying going into this game, it's gotta be on Dak 0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:05.520 shoulders as far as throwing the football like it's gonna 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:07.480 be you know, here sprinkles a little bit of Tony 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:09.200 Pollard here in there, and that's gonna be the formula 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:09.600 in order. 0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.360 To get a dumb I'm gonna say this, Barry. I 0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:13.560 think coming into the season, both of y'all were talking 0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:15.760 about Dak Prescott in the turnovers. He led the league 0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:18.960 into turnovers and he missed five games. That's abysmal as 0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:22.440 a quarterback. That's horrible. There's no excuse for that, all right, 0:10:22.600 --> 0:10:24.719 But this season, what did Mike McCarthy come into the 0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:27.680 season with an attention of detail on turning the ball over? 0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:30.120 We're not gonna allow this whole thing has been Let's 0:10:30.160 --> 0:10:32.120 pull this back a little bit and not allow Dak 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:33.760 to be in a position where he has to throw 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.480 it fifty two times in the game. You gotta lead. 0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:38.200 We're not gonna just keep throwing the ball. What are 0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:40.080 we gonna do. We're gonna get Tony Pollet involved, We're 0:10:40.080 --> 0:10:42.400 gonna run the ball. We're gonna keep our defense fresh. 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:44.480 When I look at these numbers, and I'm just saying 0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:47.320 from when we say put it on Dak. 0:10:48.280 --> 0:10:49.000 Last week when you. 0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:51.120 Came into the Los Angeles game, it was like, okay, well, 0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:52.920 how do you play against the defense that you really 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:55.120 don't know a lot about. But that same defense that 0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:59.559 we were talking about only allowed four passing touchdowns through 0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:03.080 the season. Dak did that in one game. So put 0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:06.599 it on Dak. That's the Day's your time, consistency and 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:09.600 proof right there, because he's shown you that if you 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:12.080 give me an opportunity in this offense, I can actually 0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:13.800 get it done. Now I go back and I'm looking 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:15.880 at these numbers and that's all I can go off 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:19.000 of what I see. Jahan Dawson eight catches, one hundred 0:11:19.000 --> 0:11:22.320 and eight yards, Jameson crowd of seven catches ninety five yards, 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:25.680 Tarry McClure five, six for sixty three, Logan Thomas six 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:26.480 for forty four. 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:29.120 They all got a tuddy in that game. Now, if 0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:29.920 I can't look at the. 0:11:29.880 --> 0:11:31.880 Same guys that we've been talking about that wide receiver 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:34.319 room that we did not go into the deadline making 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:35.839 a trade for, you mean to tell me we can't 0:11:35.920 --> 0:11:37.439 duplicate that same effort. 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:40.240 D Mack, I'm looking at you. I'm not. I gotta listen. 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:40.600 I'm not. 0:11:41.080 --> 0:11:43.360 That's the thing I'm not falling for, bro, because we 0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:46.240 go through this every week, all right, how one team 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:47.520 performs against another team. 0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:49.360 The Eagles have lost one game. 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:51.880 And what I said I liked about the Eagles is 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:54.400 no matter what's happening on whatever side of the ball, 0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:57.120 they figure out a way to win. So they go 0:11:57.200 --> 0:12:00.160 into that game, oh, defense not showing up offense to 0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:01.640 figure out a way to get it done. Defense is 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:03.600 gonna make the stops when they need to make the stops. 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:06.000 Every big time defensive game is not gonna look like 0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:07.480 going only allow on ten points. 0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:09.560 Some of them look like, hey man, we're gonna get a. 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:11.600 Big time stop when we need it, and that's what 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:13.800 the Eagles have been able to do. They are also 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:16.720 multiple with their defensive Like if they don't show up 0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:19.280 last week, that damn showed on me, They're not gonna 0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:21.240 show up the next week because we know what their 0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:23.160 defense can do because we've seen them do it. So 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:25.520 I'm not gonna play too much into what happened with 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:27.960 the Washington team because that's the same thing that happened 0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:31.240 with us against Arizona. Like if you look at the tape, 0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:32.680 we should have been able to go out there and 0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:36.600 dominate Arizona, but for some reason a different Arizona. I'm 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:39.280 saying it just didn't happen. So I know that possibly 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:41.440 it gets the Washington Commanders, which is a divisional game. 0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:43.559 How you always say it don't matter who it is, 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:45.880 and the divisional game, that's what that type of stuff 0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:48.160 looks like. So I'm not playing too much into that. 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:50.240 Like I said, Dak Prescott has played that well one 0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:52.480 game this season, so I'm not really just like, hey, 0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:54.640 now we just put it all on that. We have 0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:56.560 to be balanced, like Church said, And if we're not 0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:59.200 and we've become one dimensional, we're gonna be in trouble. 0:12:59.280 --> 0:13:01.720 And then even if we do become one dimensionally, you 0:13:01.760 --> 0:13:04.839 look at that Washington Receiver Corps. You know they got 0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:07.280 you know, Terry McClure and Dosos guys you just named. 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:10.400 Outside of CD Lamb, when you talk about the Dallas Cowboys, 0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:13.160 where's that other production coming from the spread the Eagles 0:13:13.160 --> 0:13:15.080 out Because if we look at it, they were able 0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:16.199 to spread that ball around. 0:13:16.040 --> 0:13:17.640 Because those receivers were getting separation. 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:19.480 They were able to go out there and beat those 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:21.679 and beat those one on one coverages out there. 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:24.240 Where have we seen that from Gallup so far this year? 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:24.600 You know? 0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:27.719 And Boks is coming along ferguson that tight end group 0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:28.480 they're dropping past. 0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:30.280 I just I mean, it's gonna be tough because if 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:32.200 they're gonna they're gonna put a lot of infhasis on 0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:32.760 CD Lamb. 0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:35.120 He can't go the past two games, he has nineteen catches, 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:37.599 two hundred and seventy five yards. They're not gonna just 0:13:37.679 --> 0:13:39.320 let him go one on one out there. They're gonna 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:41.839 have something for CD Lamb. So then it comes down 0:13:41.920 --> 0:13:46.439 to can Cook's gallop, Tolbert Ferguson and the crew. Can 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:48.160 they win those one on ones? Can they help this 0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:51.640 offense be productive? Because we saw Washington their secondary receivers 0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:52.840 were able to do so as you just. 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:53.760 Named off those stats. 0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:56.600 Can we still feel that way about this Cowboys offense 0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:58.080 or they're gonna have to be able to win those 0:13:58.080 --> 0:13:59.160 one on ones to be productive. 0:13:59.160 --> 0:14:01.240 I see, I like you see, he sees you. You not. 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:04.360 You're looking at the season in its entirety and not 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:08.439 just as Washington Commander's game, because all twenty two got 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:10.800 you feeling real good about what you saw against the 0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:14.600 Washington Commanders in and you know, albeit that is what happened, 0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:16.679 but they ended up winning that game. I feel better 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:19.960 about where Ceedee Lamb is. And I also feel better 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:22.680 about the discovery of Brandon Cooks. 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:29.600 Discovery. No, he's he's been. We located this guy, and 0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:31.360 so look here's it. 0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:34.760 And I guess I'll pose it as a question your 0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:37.520 expectation for Ceedee Lamb coming into this game after what 0:14:37.600 --> 0:14:39.800 you what you say nineteen two seventy something like last 0:14:39.840 --> 0:14:42.840 two games of last two games, your expectation for Cede 0:14:42.880 --> 0:14:47.200 Lamb if he is that number one unquestioned, because he's 0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:49.240 taking the next steps that you want him to as 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:52.280 a wide receiver. What are your expectations for him coming 0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:54.560 into a game like this versus the Eagles, Well, you know, 0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:57.440 we got to show up listen ten targets, Like I 0:14:57.480 --> 0:14:59.360 don't know what's going to happen with those targets. I 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:02.240 expect us as an offense to say, we're gonna run 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:05.560 this game one and our receiver for our receiving concepts 0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:08.240 through Cede Lamb those ten targets and not be going 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:08.680 to gallop. 0:15:08.840 --> 0:15:10.560 They should be going to Cede Lamb. 0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:12.360 He should have the most targets, and then you should 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:14.400 focus on how you get branded cooks involved. 0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:15.440 I don't know if he's gonna. 0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:17.240 Have one hundred and fifty whatever it is, because with 0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:19.400 the Cowboys, you never you never know how they're gonna play. 0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:21.040 One week we come out. 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:22.400 There and we try to run it twenty five times, 0:15:22.440 --> 0:15:24.480 and the next week we come out and that Prescott 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:26.560 is throwing four touch down. So I don't know what 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:28.440 his numbers will look like, but I need to see 0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:30.640 him get ten targets. He cannot disappear he has to 0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:31.640 be a part of the game plan. 0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:34.360 Yeah, this guy has got to be on his AJ 0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:36.280 Brown type game. I mean, he's got to go out 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:38.520 there and find a way to be that number one 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:41.480 target and find that way to move the football offensively. 0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:42.760 You look at AJ Brown, you look at some of 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:44.760 those other receivers in the world or in the National 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:47.200 Football League. Teams know that they're going to get the ball, 0:15:47.240 --> 0:15:48.880 but they still go out there and dominate. I need 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:51.240 Cede Lamb to do that same thing because if we 0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:54.880 look at it, James Bradbury and big play slay over there, 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:58.280 they're not The Rams didn't have that, The Chargers didn't 0:15:58.280 --> 0:16:00.560 have that. You know, those secondaries were watching it again, 0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:02.200 you've seen Witherspoon for the Rams. He was out there 0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:03.640 getting torched, all right, number before he four on the 0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:04.920 say he's out there getting flayed. 0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:05.160 Me on. 0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:08.640 So to me, he's going to go up against better competition. 0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:11.120 And this is why I say those other receivers have 0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:13.520 got to be able to step up because Cook Slave, 0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:16.320 he's arguably what a top three corner in the National 0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:19.040 Football League. Bradberry's not too far behind. So to me, 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:20.600 that secondary is going to give him a lot more 0:16:20.600 --> 0:16:22.960 trouble than we've seen in the past two games. And 0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:24.520 that's why these secondary pieces gotta get wrong. 0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:27.000 You have faith in Bernon Cooks. It's being that second 0:16:27.000 --> 0:16:29.560 piece if we if we include him in the offense 0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:32.080 and he's continued to be found and then all of 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:33.760 a sudden disappeared, that you have faith that he can 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:34.720 make it work out there. 0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:36.800 Yeah, because speed kills. I mean, we all understand that. 0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:38.880 And I think the Philadelphia Eagles that's what they struggle 0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:40.840 with defensively, is when you got a burner, when you 0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:42.440 got a guy that can get over top of the 0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:44.760 secondary and that's what Cooks. You know, he hasn't been 0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:46.640 able to do that consistently this year, but in years 0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.080 past he's been able to burn defenses. So if we're 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:50.640 able to test them at least open it up a 0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:52.840 couple of times, I think we should have success in there. 0:16:52.880 --> 0:16:55.760 But if you let a gallop or you know, or 0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:58.480 even the Cooks out here get ten receptions, cowboys ain't winning. 0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:00.600 Has got to be cd Land. He's got to be 0:17:00.600 --> 0:17:01.200 the guy out there. 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:04.360 And Dan, I'm gonna just tell you straight up, this 0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:06.880 is the game where Brandon Cooks has to show up, 0:17:07.080 --> 0:17:10.240 I can't come to Sunday night. I'm sitting there and 0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:12.719 I'm saying, I'm looking at Brandon Cooks, and I'm like, 0:17:12.880 --> 0:17:15.480 where was Brandon Cooks? Look at these numbers and we 0:17:15.560 --> 0:17:20.280 don't have completions or seven targets in eighty yards a touchdown. 0:17:20.680 --> 0:17:23.320 He has to be that speed component for our offense 0:17:23.400 --> 0:17:26.200 or otherwise teams like the Philadelphia Eagles gonna crawd the 0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:28.040 line of scrimmage and take away to one thing that 0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:31.120 everybody questioned what you can do, and that's running the ball. 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:33.000 If you can't do that, man. 0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:34.960 It make the whole game plan easy for whatever else 0:17:34.960 --> 0:17:36.920 they gonna do, because then they could play in zone, 0:17:36.920 --> 0:17:38.840 they could be I mean, like you said, they play 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:41.240 multiple They're gonna do different different things all the time. 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:43.840 This is the game. This is the game. 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:46.560 When I say discovery, I'm talking about we just the 0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:49.360 trade we didn't make. But that's the trade. Brandon Cooks 0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:52.760 is your acquisition that you needed at the deadline. Because 0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:55.280 if he shows up in this game and he gives 0:17:55.320 --> 0:17:57.720 you a big time production, then that means that the 0:17:57.720 --> 0:17:59.920 Eagles are trying to play extra attention to Ceedee Lamb 0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:01.760 take him out of the game. And he's the one 0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:03.560 component that went out there and wanted to Look. I 0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:05.480 ain't gonna lie to you, bro, I'm just processing.

Look at you ain't right, 0:22:10.280 --> 0:22:13.400 You're right. Let's go back to this football. I don't 0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:16.440 want to get this man out, but look, we want 0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:20.040 to talk about down the distance. What's the most important 0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:22.960 down in distance for the Dallas Cowboys. You're watching the game? 0:22:23.040 --> 0:22:25.080 Is the first down? Second down, third down? What's the 0:22:25.119 --> 0:22:26.560 most important down the distance for you? 0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:29.080 To me, it's got to be the Cowboys gotta have 0:22:29.119 --> 0:22:32.280 some type of positivity on first down. We all understand 0:22:32.280 --> 0:22:34.560 third downs of money down, that's how you continue. You 0:22:34.640 --> 0:22:37.239 know you're driving all that, But leading up to that, 0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:41.080 it can't be, you know, second and twelve because that's 0:22:41.080 --> 0:22:43.280 gonna more than likely lead to a longer down the 0:22:43.280 --> 0:22:45.040 distance on third down. So I think you gotta be 0:22:45.119 --> 0:22:47.320 positive on first down. I'm looking for a lot of 0:22:47.400 --> 0:22:50.080 runs on first down, whether you know Tony pol just 0:22:50.119 --> 0:22:51.920 to keep them honest something. 0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:52.720 I just don't want to. 0:22:52.720 --> 0:22:55.159 Go into there against the chains because we all understand 0:22:55.160 --> 0:22:56.800 if you go out there and it becomes a third 0:22:56.800 --> 0:22:57.639 and long fest. 0:22:58.240 --> 0:22:59.560 The Eagles are just like the Cowboys. 0:22:59.560 --> 0:23:01.040 They're gonna go out there and hunt like that's what 0:23:01.119 --> 0:23:03.360 Dan Quinn loves for offenses to get in those long 0:23:03.400 --> 0:23:06.080 passing down the distances going against his defense, and that's 0:23:06.080 --> 0:23:08.360 the same with the Philadelphia Eagles because they can rush 0:23:08.400 --> 0:23:11.120 the passer. So to me, they got to get something 0:23:11.119 --> 0:23:12.520 done on first down, whether it's. 0:23:12.520 --> 0:23:14.200 Two yards three yar. Don't gotta be nothing. 0:23:14.080 --> 0:23:16.359 Crazy, but just something to where you can keep those 0:23:16.400 --> 0:23:19.080 third downs manageable. Yeah, I'm going first down, but just 0:23:19.119 --> 0:23:22.439 for a slightly different reason. I think it's more of 0:23:22.480 --> 0:23:23.960 you got to be able to mix it up on 0:23:24.040 --> 0:23:27.400 first down. You can't to me, you can't become like, hey, 0:23:27.440 --> 0:23:29.280 we know exactly what they're going to do on first 0:23:29.280 --> 0:23:31.560 down and then they can stack the box or trying 0:23:31.600 --> 0:23:33.680 to dictate what you're doing on first You got to 0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:35.040 be able to mix it up so then you can 0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:37.920 have them on their heels on second and third down. 0:23:38.000 --> 0:23:39.680 Right, you want to make sure that you're not able 0:23:39.720 --> 0:23:42.080 to be kind of like a predictable offense. So for me, 0:23:42.400 --> 0:23:45.119 I want to see some boots, some waggles, maybe a 0:23:45.200 --> 0:23:47.919 quick slam, bubble screen, whatever it is. Just mix some 0:23:47.960 --> 0:23:50.080 stuff in there so you don't just become that same 0:23:50.119 --> 0:23:52.760 team on first down. Then y'all see at the beginning 0:23:52.800 --> 0:23:55.640 of the season. I think those first couple of games 0:23:55.920 --> 0:23:58.639 we were having big time success on first down. It 0:23:58.720 --> 0:24:00.560 was always bringing up and I mentioned this before in 0:24:00.560 --> 0:24:03.080 the show, it was bringing up those second and sevens, 0:24:03.119 --> 0:24:05.679 those second and sixes, and I think it made it 0:24:05.720 --> 0:24:07.719 so much easier for Mike McCarthy when he was in 0:24:07.720 --> 0:24:10.840 those situations where second and six. Then you started to 0:24:10.840 --> 0:24:14.680 see the forty nine Ers game, first down you was 0:24:14.760 --> 0:24:18.480 getting negative yards, first down, you was getting one yard, and. 0:24:18.320 --> 0:24:21.439 Then his whole offensive play call and change. 0:24:21.520 --> 0:24:24.639 So the question that we bring up, man, that's a 0:24:24.680 --> 0:24:27.360 big time question because that dictates the way that Mike 0:24:27.480 --> 0:24:31.119 is gonna call this game. So I flipped the question 0:24:31.240 --> 0:24:34.119 on you that if you're not having that success on 0:24:34.200 --> 0:24:38.560 first down and you are having to go with more 0:24:38.640 --> 0:24:42.120 wide open concept instead of just being generic and conservative, 0:24:42.680 --> 0:24:44.040 can the Cowboys play to that? 0:24:45.760 --> 0:24:47.040 Yeah? 0:24:47.280 --> 0:24:49.760 This is why, because at the beginning of the season, 0:24:49.880 --> 0:24:51.919 like what, however, you want to change your offense. Okay, 0:24:52.160 --> 0:24:55.400 don't forget who your defense is, all right, So whatever 0:24:55.440 --> 0:24:57.439 you start the game off and it's not working for 0:24:57.480 --> 0:25:00.600 you on first down, mix it up. Do not turn 0:25:00.640 --> 0:25:02.760 into we are gonna throw on first now every time, 0:25:02.880 --> 0:25:05.040 to where we gotta just hey, that gonna throw it 0:25:05.040 --> 0:25:07.160 fifty times, and if we win by that, we win 0:25:07.240 --> 0:25:07.480 by that. 0:25:07.520 --> 0:25:08.359 If we lose, we lose. 0:25:08.440 --> 0:25:10.360 You know, at the beginning of the season, Mike McCarthy 0:25:10.440 --> 0:25:13.080 came out, he said, we are going to play to 0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:16.800 our defense, right, make sure that they are rested so 0:25:16.840 --> 0:25:18.919 they can hunt when they get out there, because they 0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:22.080 are usually the difference makers in the games, especially our 0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:24.600 forty point wins. They have usually made some type of 0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:27.520 huge play to swing the momentum and make sure that 0:25:27.560 --> 0:25:30.359 the Cowboys on offense and then have a shorter field 0:25:30.560 --> 0:25:31.119 to score on. 0:25:31.200 --> 0:25:35.639 So yeah, just mix it up, bro, mix it up. 0:25:36.240 --> 0:25:37.040 I don't want to see that. 0:25:37.080 --> 0:25:39.720 I don't want to see that because you said it, 0:25:39.760 --> 0:25:41.639 Bro a lot of times when we go into that 0:25:41.680 --> 0:25:44.240 offense where Dak Prescott is going to be the guy 0:25:44.240 --> 0:25:48.400 where he's gonna throw it forty times, maybe fifty. It's 0:25:48.440 --> 0:25:51.119 just too iffy, man, it's just too iffy, especially against 0:25:51.400 --> 0:25:54.120 a defensive line who set the record last year for sacks. 0:25:54.320 --> 0:25:57.200 That's true. You don't want to put yourself in that position. 0:25:57.280 --> 0:26:00.439 Oh yeah, by the way, it's Tyresmith playing, Like what 0:26:00.480 --> 0:26:02.280 type of situation do you want to be in as 0:26:02.320 --> 0:26:04.560 far as hey, we behind the sticks and then now 0:26:04.600 --> 0:26:08.080 we gotta just face that defensive You know, I'm gonna 0:26:08.200 --> 0:26:10.520 let I want to make sure you stay on your 0:26:10.560 --> 0:26:12.520 one eight and feel come, I'm gonna. 0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:14.320 Be there anyway. It's not gonna be nothing to you. 0:26:15.280 --> 0:26:15.800 What are you saying? 0:26:16.119 --> 0:26:19.240 What were you saying as far as conservative game plan 0:26:19.400 --> 0:26:21.040 on first down or or open this up? 0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:25.440 Man, I think it's tough. 0:26:25.440 --> 0:26:28.080 It's tough because you can't play like you can't be 0:26:28.119 --> 0:26:30.719 too conservative to where they know every time you come 0:26:30.720 --> 0:26:32.720 out on first down, hey, they gonna do something either, 0:26:33.200 --> 0:26:34.880 you know, quick out of his hands fast, they're gonna 0:26:34.920 --> 0:26:37.240 run the football. You can't be that conservative because it 0:26:37.280 --> 0:26:40.040 makes you too predictable. But then again, you don't want 0:26:40.040 --> 0:26:41.960 to get in those long down distances. But to me, 0:26:42.640 --> 0:26:44.440 the Cowboys are gonna go out there and then they're 0:26:44.440 --> 0:26:46.000 gonna win this game. If the girl gonna go out 0:26:46.000 --> 0:26:47.840 there and win this game, the offensive has to be productive, 0:26:47.880 --> 0:26:49.840 and in that regard, you're gonna have to take shots. 0:26:50.000 --> 0:26:52.080 So to me, you gotta open this thing up a 0:26:52.080 --> 0:26:54.520 little bit. You gotta open up the playbook, you gotta 0:26:54.560 --> 0:26:56.800 open up the offense. You just can't go out there 0:26:56.800 --> 0:26:59.400 at twelve twenty one personnel. Oh it's third down, Now 0:26:59.560 --> 0:27:01.719 go to A and per. You got to mix it up, 0:27:01.760 --> 0:27:03.920 like you said, and keep this defense off balance, because 0:27:03.960 --> 0:27:05.840 once they get a key on what you're doing, those 0:27:05.880 --> 0:27:07.960 pass rushers are gonna eat. You know, that secondary is 0:27:07.960 --> 0:27:11.320 gonna be opportunistic just looking for an interception from Dak Prescott, 0:27:11.400 --> 0:27:13.000 so you can't fall into their hands. 0:27:13.040 --> 0:27:14.040 You got to keep them guessing. 0:27:14.160 --> 0:27:17.200 That's why this the balance approach to me is the best, 0:27:17.240 --> 0:27:18.800 and that's why I feel like Tony Poller got to 0:27:18.840 --> 0:27:20.760 get his touches up just a little bit more. 0:27:20.760 --> 0:27:22.119 And it doesn't have to be all runs like. 0:27:22.119 --> 0:27:23.359 It doesn't have to be you know, we got to 0:27:23.359 --> 0:27:25.919 get this man eighteen to twenty two rushing attempts. It 0:27:25.920 --> 0:27:29.159 could be fifteen rushing then, Oh everything's kind of blocked 0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:30.880 or kind of covered up up there. Let me dump 0:27:30.920 --> 0:27:32.520 it down to Tony Polla a couple of times, a 0:27:32.560 --> 0:27:34.919 screen here and there, just different ways to get him 0:27:34.960 --> 0:27:37.200 the ball to make sure that this defense is kind 0:27:37.200 --> 0:27:39.800 of man should should we play uptight on these guys 0:27:39.800 --> 0:27:41.320 and take away the short stuff or do we play 0:27:41.640 --> 0:27:43.960 on top to make sure we keep everything in front 0:27:44.000 --> 0:27:45.760 of us. You gotta keep this team guessing because once 0:27:45.760 --> 0:27:47.680 they get a hold of what you're doing, it gets 0:27:47.760 --> 0:27:48.560 kind of tough to move the back. 0:27:48.680 --> 0:27:50.560 Then, you guys, expect a little bit more from our 0:27:50.600 --> 0:27:54.320 screen game. Absolute, Yeah, Like I think, yeah, I think 0:27:54.359 --> 0:27:56.960 that's one of one of the fastest of offense where 0:27:57.000 --> 0:27:58.960 I'm like, I would love to see some improvement in 0:27:59.000 --> 0:28:01.879 that area, all right, just all around though, like to 0:28:02.400 --> 0:28:04.440 I feel like Tony Poler should be a really good 0:28:04.440 --> 0:28:05.080 screen back. 0:28:05.600 --> 0:28:07.480 He should be able, like a little bit out. 0:28:07.720 --> 0:28:09.280 He should be able, Like we should be able to 0:28:09.280 --> 0:28:11.920 make some plays like that ceedee lamb turping those guys 0:28:11.920 --> 0:28:13.399 out there on the edge. We should figure out we 0:28:13.440 --> 0:28:15.160 should be able to figure out a way to get 0:28:15.160 --> 0:28:17.840 them involved in the screen Ferguson, We got guys who 0:28:18.119 --> 0:28:19.679 when you get the ball in their hands early and 0:28:19.720 --> 0:28:21.160 let them let them do what they do, I think 0:28:21.160 --> 0:28:22.920 they can make some play. So I would like to 0:28:22.920 --> 0:28:24.800 see our screen game, you know, become a little bit 0:28:24.800 --> 0:28:26.000 more successful throughout the season. 0:28:26.040 --> 0:28:28.359 And I'm glad you brought up because I meant to 0:28:28.359 --> 0:28:28.960 talk about it. 0:28:29.440 --> 0:28:31.320 Do you think he should get a little bit more 0:28:31.960 --> 0:28:34.800 for some snaps like every time the game he kind 0:28:34.800 --> 0:28:37.080 of it kind of makes something happen, whether it's a 0:28:37.200 --> 0:28:40.080 you know, reverse, let me throw them on an inside fade. 0:28:40.520 --> 0:28:42.040 When he seems to get the ball in his hands, 0:28:42.040 --> 0:28:45.120 he seems electric. So to me, would you want Turning 0:28:45.160 --> 0:28:46.920 to get a little bit more playing time? Seeing as 0:28:46.920 --> 0:28:50.320 though these wide receivers outside of C. D. Lamb, you know, 0:28:50.360 --> 0:28:58.760 cooks getting you know, we gotta see because you know, 0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:02.240 Gall he just hasn't for whatever the case. I know 0:29:02.240 --> 0:29:04.760 he's been injured, all that good stuff, but he hasn't 0:29:04.800 --> 0:29:07.760 been as productive as we might have thought going into 0:29:07.800 --> 0:29:10.120 this season. I mean we can all say that. I mean, 0:29:10.160 --> 0:29:12.880 looking at the game, he just hasn't been that productive 0:29:12.880 --> 0:29:16.160 wide receiver. So do you to get a spark into 0:29:16.200 --> 0:29:18.680 this offense? Can you see them sliding maybe a turping 0:29:18.680 --> 0:29:20.840 in to get a little bit more more wide receiver 0:29:20.960 --> 0:29:21.520 three reps. 0:29:21.520 --> 0:29:23.040 I'm not saying he's gonna be out there all day, 0:29:23.080 --> 0:29:24.800 but I think that's a little bit. 0:29:24.800 --> 0:29:26.880 I think he's the X factor also in this game, 0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:29.560 and he's a guy that can give your offense some 0:29:29.680 --> 0:29:32.800 juice immediately. The problem that we had in the two 0:29:32.840 --> 0:29:35.120 losses that we've had is that we got off to 0:29:35.120 --> 0:29:35.840 a bad starts. 0:29:36.480 --> 0:29:37.000 Arizona. 0:29:37.080 --> 0:29:39.800 You walked out there and it was it was literally 0:29:39.880 --> 0:29:42.760 looked like it was over before it started. San Francisco 0:29:43.560 --> 0:29:46.680 horrible start. And this is and that's for me, like 0:29:46.720 --> 0:29:49.440 when I look at this this Philly game, you cannot 0:29:50.040 --> 0:29:53.160 get off to a bad start in this game. And 0:29:53.200 --> 0:29:56.280 a guy like Cavante Turpin, whether it be in those 0:29:56.280 --> 0:30:00.320 specialty plays with him or something that he does special 0:30:00.360 --> 0:30:03.440 teams and we saw last week. Now, I don't know 0:30:03.440 --> 0:30:05.640 if the NFL is on notice, but y'all saw it. 0:30:05.880 --> 0:30:08.640 Cavante Turpin can't be a difference maker on special teams 0:30:08.640 --> 0:30:12.120 for us. I mean, and the way that he changes 0:30:12.160 --> 0:30:14.480 the game when he makes makes those big plays, it 0:30:14.520 --> 0:30:17.200 seems like the whole team is feeding on what number 0:30:17.240 --> 0:30:20.480 nine is doing. Yeah, I listen, Turpin is definitely a 0:30:20.520 --> 0:30:23.720 difference maker. I mean to be honest, a whole entire 0:30:23.720 --> 0:30:26.360 special teams to this point has been able to make 0:30:26.360 --> 0:30:29.440 difference making plays. But that is why you want to 0:30:29.440 --> 0:30:31.400 make sure you play to your defense because that also 0:30:31.480 --> 0:30:33.400 gives you an opportunity to get the ball in Turp's 0:30:33.440 --> 0:30:37.280 hands not on offense right forcing punts. That is a 0:30:37.320 --> 0:30:40.600 big time part of why Covante Turpin is on this 0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:43.840 team is to change the field position when we're able 0:30:43.880 --> 0:30:45.719 to make them punt. And when you have a great defense, 0:30:45.760 --> 0:30:47.320 you expect to get a lot of punt force a 0:30:47.360 --> 0:30:48.040 lot of punts. 0:30:48.200 --> 0:30:50.720 So yeah, he's definitely an X factor. 0:30:50.760 --> 0:30:52.240 I can see him making a big time play in 0:30:52.240 --> 0:30:53.600 the game for us, but I would like to see 0:30:53.640 --> 0:30:54.440 him a little bit more. 0:30:55.480 --> 0:30:56.480 I want to call him. 0:30:56.320 --> 0:31:01.240 Like Gadget plays, But Gadget plays. 0:31:01.480 --> 0:31:04.000 You picking, I'll tell you tomorrow. 0:31:04.280 --> 0:31:06.560 I mean, I'm allowed to pick Philings just because the 0:31:06.600 --> 0:31:07.480 way you came here to. 0:31:09.160 --> 0:31:12.760 Just to spike you. You go with your heart. You 0:31:12.840 --> 0:31:13.640 going with your heart. 0:31:13.680 --> 0:31:17.440 This is uh as we get closer and tomorrow, and 0:31:17.480 --> 0:31:19.000 I know you want to put a tasty cake on this. 0:31:19.080 --> 0:31:21.680 And the thing about it is, you know it's got 0:31:21.680 --> 0:31:23.680 to go both ways. It's gotta be something beneficial also 0:31:23.840 --> 0:31:24.480 on the other side. 0:31:24.480 --> 0:31:26.280 I mean, you want to tell a twenty other player, 0:31:26.400 --> 0:31:28.600 I'll take any bet you give me off the plane. 0:31:28.640 --> 0:31:32.520 He did say that. Yeah, So. 0:31:34.360 --> 0:31:37.000 In this matchup, guys, I mean, we we've talked about 0:31:37.200 --> 0:31:40.960 this offense all day. We we we talked about the defense. 0:31:41.160 --> 0:31:45.600 But there has to be a miscellaneous player. It doesn't 0:31:45.600 --> 0:31:49.160 matter offense defense, it is a miscellaneous player. That is, like, 0:31:49.440 --> 0:31:52.040 if this guy has a big game, we're gonna win 0:31:52.160 --> 0:31:55.240 this game. Who is that guy? Who is your Who 0:31:55.320 --> 0:31:57.480 is your miscellaneous guy? 0:31:57.920 --> 0:32:00.920 M I S C. Who is your guy? My guy 0:32:01.640 --> 0:32:02.720 is Aubrey the kicker. 0:32:03.240 --> 0:32:05.760 That's gonna be my If he out and he has 0:32:06.040 --> 0:32:08.760 a dominating day, which means he's going out there, he's 0:32:08.760 --> 0:32:11.200 making all the extra points, which means we're scoring some tubs. 0:32:11.400 --> 0:32:13.040 And if he's out there having a dominant day, that 0:32:13.080 --> 0:32:15.240 means the field goals are involved as well, which means 0:32:15.600 --> 0:32:18.440 this offense is ending each and every time they you know, 0:32:18.480 --> 0:32:20.280 they have the bather ending with some type of points, 0:32:20.280 --> 0:32:22.320 a kick, whatever, extra point, whatever the case may be. 0:32:22.400 --> 0:32:25.000 So if he's out there dominating, and I think it's 0:32:25.040 --> 0:32:28.480 gonna be a tighter game than like not the high scoring. 0:32:28.480 --> 0:32:29.920 I think it's gonna be tight in that regard, maybe 0:32:29.920 --> 0:32:32.760 a twenty seventeen something like that. If he's out there 0:32:32.880 --> 0:32:34.840 and he's getting points at a premium like that and 0:32:34.880 --> 0:32:36.520 you get you know, past the forty yard line, you 0:32:36.520 --> 0:32:38.800 know he's automatic. If he's able to do that, I 0:32:38.800 --> 0:32:41.440 mean that's a big time advantage for the Dallas cowboy. 0:32:41.240 --> 0:32:48.720 I'm going for big fire. Yeah, like, what just happened? 0:32:48.960 --> 0:32:52.520 What time is it? Two thirty three? No, remember to six. Listen. 0:32:53.360 --> 0:32:54.840 My first one was gonna be d Law, but I 0:32:54.840 --> 0:32:57.080 expect him already. You know what I'm saying. Yes, I 0:32:57.120 --> 0:32:59.600 gotta go, I gotta listen. If you are able to 0:32:59.640 --> 0:33:02.600 get an other weapon, all right, especially a weapon that 0:33:02.640 --> 0:33:05.200 can attack the middle of the field, because once you 0:33:05.280 --> 0:33:07.040 get somebody who can attack the middle of the field, 0:33:07.040 --> 0:33:08.760 it spreads the defense out right, then they have to 0:33:08.760 --> 0:33:10.840 focus on that part. It opens it up for the 0:33:10.920 --> 0:33:12.960 extra seve on the outside, which would be CD Lamb. 0:33:13.000 --> 0:33:15.920 It better be CD Lamb out there getting through three 0:33:15.920 --> 0:33:17.560 by one coverage so he can get the. 0:33:17.520 --> 0:33:19.880 Single or the z out there. Whatever. 0:33:20.160 --> 0:33:25.240 It spreads it out for you. So whoever that is, 0:33:25.840 --> 0:33:27.800 it's gonna be Cooks man. It'll open it up for Cooks. 0:33:27.800 --> 0:33:30.240 And it opened up for CD Lamb if somehow we 0:33:30.280 --> 0:33:32.240 can get Ferg in there working the middle of the field. 0:33:32.440 --> 0:33:34.360 And you see that with every team across the league. 0:33:34.440 --> 0:33:37.800 If they have a tight end, who can one create 0:33:37.800 --> 0:33:40.080 a mismatch with the linebackers and even on safeties and 0:33:40.120 --> 0:33:42.120 then work that middle of the field. It just opens 0:33:42.200 --> 0:33:45.960 up everything for the offense because now those zone droppers 0:33:46.240 --> 0:33:48.240 they have to really be able to say, you know what, 0:33:48.400 --> 0:33:50.800 they actually a throw the ball to that guy and 0:33:50.840 --> 0:33:53.680 then that'll open up the grab routse, behind the dig routes, 0:33:54.360 --> 0:33:55.960 the go rouse, all that type of stuff because the 0:33:55.960 --> 0:33:57.480 safety now has to pay attention to him. And I 0:33:57.480 --> 0:34:01.160 think if he's able to have a big game, my 0:34:01.480 --> 0:34:06.000 miscellaneous guy is Donovan Wilson Donald And the reason why 0:34:06.160 --> 0:34:08.480 is Donovan Wilson is going to be charged with stopping 0:34:08.480 --> 0:34:10.120 the run. He's got to play close to the line 0:34:10.120 --> 0:34:13.040 of scrimmage and he's also got to help against Dallas Goddard. 0:34:13.640 --> 0:34:16.239 I mean, that's a big responsibility. We cannot put all 0:34:16.280 --> 0:34:19.000 of that on Jerun Curse. And the thing that I 0:34:19.000 --> 0:34:22.360 say he's a miscellaneous player player in this game because 0:34:22.400 --> 0:34:28.160 we saw how he performed with Kittle. I mean, you look, hey, 0:34:28.200 --> 0:34:29.920 you talk about what did I see in the game 0:34:30.000 --> 0:34:31.960 that I went back to the I went back to 0:34:32.040 --> 0:34:35.800 the San Francisco game, and that was a rough outing 0:34:36.320 --> 0:34:37.560 for our safety. 0:34:38.840 --> 0:34:40.959 We're just saying it was. It was bad. 0:34:41.239 --> 0:34:43.680 And this is another situation where you come into a 0:34:43.719 --> 0:34:47.640 game where with a offensive coordinator, a head coach. That's 0:34:47.680 --> 0:34:51.160 going to test you with formation. It's definitely gonna test 0:34:51.200 --> 0:34:52.759 you with the tight end. 0:34:52.880 --> 0:34:54.520 They have too many. Who do you cover? 0:34:54.960 --> 0:34:58.560 So who do you see covering Goddard more out of 0:34:59.200 --> 0:35:00.479 Donald and Bell? 0:35:01.760 --> 0:35:05.680 I said, Dom From what I've said, they've been putting 0:35:05.800 --> 0:35:08.279 Bell on on these side. They've been they've been having 0:35:08.320 --> 0:35:10.960 them out there, and you know he's done. He's done 0:35:10.960 --> 0:35:12.320 a good job because we haven't seen him out so 0:35:12.480 --> 0:35:14.040 he must be doing eye in courage because we haven't 0:35:14.040 --> 0:35:16.640 even been like man who's out there getting shirt so 0:35:16.760 --> 0:35:19.520 but but God is a different animal. Man, that's that's 0:35:19.520 --> 0:35:20.160 a different beast. 0:35:21.000 --> 0:35:24.080 See, I got faith in playing and and Bell. 0:35:24.600 --> 0:35:27.520 He's only giving me reasons to believe in what he 0:35:27.600 --> 0:35:31.360 can do, especially since he's been getting better every game. Okay, 0:35:31.400 --> 0:35:33.640 And if they are going to put him on the 0:35:33.719 --> 0:35:35.880 tight end, then I gotta know, I gotta believe that 0:35:35.880 --> 0:35:38.480 they've seen something in him that says that's our best 0:35:38.560 --> 0:35:40.440 chance is stopping this stopping this guy, because God, it 0:35:40.520 --> 0:35:42.840 is a real, a real weapon out there, so you 0:35:42.920 --> 0:35:43.719 have to figure out what to do. 0:35:43.760 --> 0:35:45.160 I just don't know about Donald on and coverage. 0:35:45.360 --> 0:35:47.239 Now, He's just the thing that I see about Dallas 0:35:47.280 --> 0:35:50.480 gott Is, he's so patient, he understands defenses, and he's 0:35:50.480 --> 0:35:52.920 not one of those guys that's gonna, you know, get 0:35:53.280 --> 0:35:55.680 run full speed to the linebackers. He's gonna, you know, 0:35:55.760 --> 0:35:59.000 play it, play the block, chip, get around the back, 0:35:59.160 --> 0:36:01.399 and then just way on jaylen Hurst to find right 0:36:01.440 --> 0:36:03.839 in the middle of the defense. And for me, I 0:36:03.920 --> 0:36:06.439 wasn't thinking so much Marquise Bell And the reason why 0:36:06.440 --> 0:36:08.359 is because I've seen I haven't seen him so much 0:36:08.400 --> 0:36:09.920 a man the man I just made by having just 0:36:09.960 --> 0:36:12.080 noticed it. I've seen him play a little bit underneath 0:36:12.120 --> 0:36:14.839 with safety help over the top. On tight ends, that's 0:36:14.880 --> 0:36:17.520 the way to go. Don't don't leave fourteen by itself 0:36:17.520 --> 0:36:20.200 with Dallas Gotter the only person and I don't really 0:36:20.200 --> 0:36:22.319 trust him, but I'm going Jay run curse. If I 0:36:22.400 --> 0:36:24.279 just got to play man the man on a tight end, 0:36:24.480 --> 0:36:27.279 I gotta go, Jay run curse. In this situation that 0:36:27.360 --> 0:36:29.480 I saw on the injury report is nursing a toe 0:36:29.600 --> 0:36:32.040 injury that he showed up with that so that's another 0:36:32.800 --> 0:36:36.239 thing I don't need right now. But that's that's just 0:36:36.360 --> 0:36:38.759 my my my as far as my X factor, I'm 0:36:38.800 --> 0:36:41.279 seeing that, but I don't want to go away from 0:36:41.280 --> 0:36:45.000 what you said about the Marcus Lawrence. The Marcus Lawrence 0:36:45.080 --> 0:36:48.080 is a big He's a big piece this week because 0:36:48.120 --> 0:36:50.120 if you can get the best of Marcus Lawrence and 0:36:50.440 --> 0:36:52.919 we and I don't want to like put him into 0:36:53.640 --> 0:36:55.319 just a box of what he does, but I think 0:36:55.360 --> 0:36:58.239 he's your best run stopper up front. Oh absolutely, He's 0:36:58.239 --> 0:37:01.000 the most physical gal on your defense, like him and 0:37:01.040 --> 0:37:02.759 then Donald, But I think just. 0:37:02.760 --> 0:37:03.759 Play in and play out. 0:37:03.880 --> 0:37:07.800 De Marcus Lawrence is your most physical, dominating, intimidate, whatever 0:37:07.840 --> 0:37:09.319 you want to call it. He is that guy for 0:37:09.400 --> 0:37:13.440 our defense. So I mean, look, that's that's for me. 0:37:14.080 --> 0:37:17.600 He has to show up and my other guys gotta 0:37:17.840 --> 0:37:20.640 I mean, who are your other guys? 0:37:20.840 --> 0:37:24.480 You know, come on, dogs zuga gotta he gonna get hit, 0:37:25.040 --> 0:37:25.759 He gonna get it. 0:37:25.760 --> 0:37:30.040 It is start and it ends with number eleven. 0:37:30.120 --> 0:37:32.400 So he doesn't if he doesn't perform, if he doesn't 0:37:32.400 --> 0:37:34.839 have if he's not balling, this defense is gonna suffer. 0:37:35.080 --> 0:37:38.320 What I feel like, the defense feeds off of him. 0:37:38.680 --> 0:37:40.480 I feel like I think if they go in the 0:37:40.480 --> 0:37:42.879 field and you guys, come on, y'all tell me when 0:37:42.920 --> 0:37:45.480 you're playing with a world class dog and y'all going 0:37:45.480 --> 0:37:47.120 to y'all turn on the film, y'all looking at this 0:37:47.200 --> 0:37:48.239 dude like, did you. 0:37:48.239 --> 0:37:49.040 See what salt of you? 0:37:49.360 --> 0:37:49.960 Oh? 0:37:50.040 --> 0:37:52.719 You won't in on that. You won't in on that. 0:37:53.160 --> 0:37:54.960 And so to me, I feel like that's what this 0:37:55.040 --> 0:37:57.680 defense does. They feed off of what number eleven does. 0:37:57.719 --> 0:37:59.480 So if he come on the field and he's. 0:37:59.360 --> 0:38:02.080 Like, oh man, I don't know how this is. 0:38:02.080 --> 0:38:05.239 Gonna go, everybody else can feed on that. You know, Hey, 0:38:05.239 --> 0:38:07.560 don't shoot me for this. Okay, who's having who's having 0:38:07.560 --> 0:38:10.239 the best year? The best the player that's having the 0:38:10.239 --> 0:38:18.680 best year on our defense? All right, all right, I may. 0:38:18.760 --> 0:38:20.680 Take pick six? Is that the just steal it up? 0:38:20.719 --> 0:38:23.120 Because I mean, regardless if he threw the. 0:38:23.120 --> 0:38:25.080 Ball behind him or where it is, I mean, that's 0:38:25.120 --> 0:38:26.800 a guy that's catching the ball and he's taking it 0:38:26.840 --> 0:38:29.840 to the house. That's momentum changing. He's done that several times, 0:38:30.120 --> 0:38:33.440 but right now, I mean it's one A one B. 0:38:34.120 --> 0:38:36.520 Michaeh is the tone seenter. No, I know you, I 0:38:36.600 --> 0:38:39.200 know I wanted to say that because he's a tone setter. 0:38:39.480 --> 0:38:41.640 But I'm just looking at a guy like dron Bland 0:38:41.920 --> 0:38:44.560 knowing that A J. Brown is out there and the 0:38:44.600 --> 0:38:46.960 slim reapers out there, if he's able to make some 0:38:47.000 --> 0:38:49.400 big time players out there in this game. Talk about 0:38:49.400 --> 0:38:51.879 feeding off of off a guy as far as a man, 0:38:52.000 --> 0:38:54.239 Look look what that guy's doing. Man, that'd be a 0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:57.800 difference making for the office, defense and specialties because you 0:38:57.880 --> 0:38:59.919 gotta know that guy's in there are saying the same, 0:39:00.360 --> 0:39:02.040 Hey man, hey aj brown o beast man. We just 0:39:02.080 --> 0:39:03.279 got to figure out a way to make sure he 0:39:03.320 --> 0:39:05.600 don't go crazy on him. Just imagine that Deron Blank 0:39:05.680 --> 0:39:08.480 go out there and do some type of shutdown or 0:39:08.680 --> 0:39:10.640 you know, open the game off with an interception that 0:39:10.800 --> 0:39:13.400 is going to like really feed into the team of like, 0:39:13.400 --> 0:39:15.560 oh yeah, we here baby, And he has. 0:39:15.480 --> 0:39:17.640 An opportunity to do so because we looked at it 0:39:17.680 --> 0:39:19.960 as good as Hurts as looked at times this year, 0:39:20.000 --> 0:39:24.560 he's looked outstanding. He has turned the ball over ete 0:39:24.600 --> 0:39:27.319 interceptions far this season, second in the league, and then 0:39:27.360 --> 0:39:29.320 another three fumbles, So that's a that's eleven. 0:39:29.520 --> 0:39:29.759 Wow. 0:39:29.840 --> 0:39:31.759 So he's gonna have the opportunity to take the ball away. 0:39:31.800 --> 0:39:34.319 They gotta take advantage of it. Wow, you can't drop one. 0:39:34.360 --> 0:39:36.160 Don't give him but take it out there, take it 0:39:36.160 --> 0:39:38.640 out man.
