Patricks can 41 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 6: give us an update on Tyler Smith. Let just so 42 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,199 Speaker 6: everyone knows, at this current moment, Mike McCarthy is also 43 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 6: talking to the media, So we've got our trustee, our 44 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 6: trusted reporters, Nick Eatman, Nick Harris that are also in 45 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 6: that press conference. They'll be giving us some updates as well. 46 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 6: So Patrick may at some point revised whatever he says 47 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 6: at this point with regards to the injury status of 48 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 6: a few players. Let's talk first about Tyler Smith. What 49 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 6: do we know based on what we'd known yesterday about 50 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 6: his MRI. 51 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 8: Well, it looks as if based on yesterday, it's being 52 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 8: described as a hamstring strain. But like brought Us said 53 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 8: before we came online, that's no different from what the 54 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 8: Cowboys their diagnosis was on Monday when he exited practice, 55 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 8: So that kind of falls in line with what Jerry 56 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 8: was saying on Tuesday when he spoke one to five 57 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 8: point three of him the fan and saying that as 58 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 8: of yesterday he didn't have any concern about Tyler Smith's 59 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 8: availability for Sunday night. We'll see if that changes here 60 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 8: in real time when McCarthy starts speaking, and if so, 61 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 8: then we'll update you guys before the show was over. 62 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 8: Sam Williams obviously no change there as well as we 63 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 8: know it prior to McCarthy speaking and prior to practice 64 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 8: getting underway within the next hour, so he's. 65 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 5: Dealing with the turf toe. 66 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 8: There's optimism there, but not nearly as much as you'd 67 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 8: see probably from Tyler Smith and then from there. Donovan Wilson, 68 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 8: no change in what we know from yesterday. But today 69 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 8: is going to be one of the bigger days for him. 70 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 8: This is where the Cowboys really kick things up in practice. 71 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 8: So let's see if he's still on the cords as 72 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 8: he was on Monday, or if he takes part in 73 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 8: even individual drills, which would be a step forward for him. 74 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, I guess that we will find out today on 75 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 6: all three of those guys, because they will be back 76 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 6: out of practice. We'll start seeing a little bit more 77 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 6: of how they're moving and probably get more of an 78 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,119 Speaker 6: update on how they're progressing throughout the week heading into 79 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 6: this first game, Let's start turning the page to the Giants, 80 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 6: and we're going to talk about the Giants here in 81 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 6: the second segment, Brian's going to give us a scouting notebook. 82 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 6: We're going to talk today specifically about the Cowboys offense 83 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 6: versus the Giants defense. 84 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 3: But before we do that, I'd like to at least 85 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 3: lay out four. 86 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 6: Fans what we think are the biggest storylines for the 87 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 6: Cowboys heading into this week one game against the Giants 88 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 6: on Sunday Night Football. I'd like to go around the 89 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 6: table in each of you, I'd like you to give 90 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 6: me what you think is the biggest storyline for the 91 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 6: Cowboys heading into this game. 92 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 3: Let's start with you Patrick. 93 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 8: Can Dak Prescott continue his winning against the Giants? 94 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 5: I think too. I think yeah. He's up to ten 95 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 5: games now. 96 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 8: He has not lost a game against the Giants since 97 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 8: twenty sixteen, his rookie season, And if you talk to 98 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 8: Dak Prescott after those after he defeated the Giants last year, 99 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 8: he kind of alluded to using the two losses against 100 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 8: the Giants in an otherwise stellar rookie season as motivation 101 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 8: to continue to beat up on them as much as possible. 102 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 8: So he's got the twos to do it. To say 103 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 8: the least, yesterday we talked about Deuce Vom Brandon Cooks. 104 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 8: You have versatility in Hunter Limpke, and you know the 105 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 8: tight end room and how tight ends usually dominate at 106 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 8: MetLife Stadium for the Dallas Cowboys. So for me, the 107 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 8: question mark is as we try to find out if 108 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 8: this Cowboys offense can met serve and doing so, can 109 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 8: Dak Prescott extend a ten game win streak to an 110 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 8: eleven game win streak, which would give them a very 111 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 8: nice leg up going into or going into Week one 112 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 8: or Week two, I should say, because they will have 113 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 8: not only going to want to know, but at the 114 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 8: expense of a division rival. So I want to see 115 00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 8: if he can stretch ten to eleven. 116 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 4: The big question for me going in will be, and 117 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 4: I feel like, is has the offensive turnover at coaching 118 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 4: on the coaching staff. Is that going to make a difference. 119 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 4: Are we going to initially see this offense, is it 120 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 4: going to come out blazing or is it going to 121 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 4: come out struggling, and I don't think it has anything 122 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 4: to do with what's going on in the preseason with 123 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 4: playing the players or not playing the players. I think 124 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 4: Mike McCarthy again him getting back on the horse, is 125 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 4: the primary play caller. But there's a lot of turnover. 126 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,119 Speaker 4: There was turnover at running back, there was turnover at quarterback. Coach, 127 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 4: there was turnover on the offensive line. You know, here 128 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 4: we are, we're in the situation now we're in the 129 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 4: regular season. I know they had three preseason games to 130 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 4: try and iron some things out, but things come fast 131 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 4: and furious during the games. Is the coordination there with 132 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 4: the offense. Is the play caller, the OC everybody on 133 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 4: the same page in order to put these offensive players 134 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 4: in the best position to succeed. I feel like the 135 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 4: defense will be ready to go. The uestions I have 136 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 4: will be the offensive staff. Can they come out of 137 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 4: the gate with it blazing? 138 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 7: I mean, I think we're all on the same stuff. 139 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 5: I'm trying, don't try. 140 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 7: I think we're all on the same page as far 141 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 7: as that. Because we haven't seen this team come together 142 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 7: and play a game just yet. The question for me 143 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 7: is is can this team be better than last year. 144 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 7: And everything we've seen at training can, for me, in 145 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 7: my opinion, indicates that it very well can. But we 146 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 7: know how elusive or how training cap magic happens, and 147 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 7: you're not necessarily always seeing what you think you're seeing, 148 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 7: and then the season starts and then you start seeing, Okay, 149 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 7: these are the holes, these are their weaknesses and all that. 150 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 7: So I think, like Brian just presented, just everything coming along, 151 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 7: I'm not necessarily scared or concern about the Giants and 152 00:06:55,800 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 7: we'll break them down and famous last words. But but 153 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 7: historically speaking, given the past years, the Giants haven't necessarily 154 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 7: been a huge threat for the Cowboys, So on that aspect, 155 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 7: that doesn't concern me so much. It concerns me can 156 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 7: they all come together as we think they can? So 157 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 7: super excited and Mike McCarthy, he's being very very protective 158 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 7: of this week and just covering everything and nobody's gonna 159 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 7: see anything and this is top secret because no one 160 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 7: has seen anything happen yet, so hopefully he puts on 161 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 7: a show this weekend. 162 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting, Brian. 163 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 6: You mentioned all the turnover and all the change, and 164 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 6: it does make me wonder if we get into this 165 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 6: game and the offense starts slow. I know you said 166 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 6: you wouldn't blame too much on what happened in the preseason, 167 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 6: but is it fair to say, because there's been so 168 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 6: much change and turnover, change the personnel, play call or 169 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 6: all those things, if it is a slow start for 170 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 6: the offense, maybe the fact that they didn't play the 171 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,239 Speaker 6: preseason could be a reason why. 172 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 4: You know, I from my former background of being in 173 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 4: player personnel, I disdained the games, the preseason games. At times, 174 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 4: there were five games. If you played in the Hall 175 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 4: of Fame game, you talk about holding your breath sitting 176 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 4: there watching games like please get up, Please get up. 177 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 4: You know, and we saw what happened to overshown, and 178 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 4: you know, and there's a primary piece of a you know, 179 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 4: a player that even though he was a rookie, I 180 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 4: had a plan for him, and I don't right now 181 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 4: have a suitable backup for him. I don't think I do. 182 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 4: But it's so hard for me. I understand. The reason 183 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 4: why I'm taking the approach of I've not I don't 184 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 4: really care about preseason football for your starters is the 185 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 4: fact that I felt like there's not a better defense 186 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 4: than they could have gone against. I'm talking about the offense. 187 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 4: You know, there was a reason why maybe Mike McCarthey 188 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 4: doesn't like to work against the Rams or the Chargers 189 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 4: or Seattle, you know. I mean, he played the preseason games, 190 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 4: he kind of figured out some things about some of 191 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 4: his backup guys. I don't think we all knew that TJ. 192 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 4: Bass could play as well as he did, but three 193 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 4: preseason games he earned his letter jacket. He played a 194 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,599 Speaker 4: ton of snaps, you know, with the way, and you 195 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 4: learned about Awesome Richards along the way, you learned about 196 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 4: Juan Yea Thomas along the way. I'm good with that. 197 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 4: That helps me going forward when I'm building my fifty three. 198 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 4: But the fact that I got to work against I 199 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 4: couldn't block MICHAEH. Parsons, you know, but I knew that 200 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 4: was going to be a problem. But the times I 201 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 4: did block Michael Parsons, Hey, look, it's a positive play. 202 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 4: I just kind of feel like those Tuesday Wednesday padded 203 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 4: practices probably got them more work than eight to ten 204 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 4: plays against Seattle or Jacksonville or the Raiders. That's kind 205 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 4: of how I would rather take that scripted type of 206 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 4: practice is and get that work. 207 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 7: I wasn't keeping up with anybody else's preseason, but just 208 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 7: out of curiosity, do you guys know. 209 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 4: Andy Reid, Andy Reid, well not withheld Andy will play 210 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 4: as guys. 211 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 7: Yeah, But like I'm just curious as to like how 212 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 7: many other teams did the same as the Cowboys of 213 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 7: just keeping their starters out. 214 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 4: There's there's a few, like the Rams are a team. 215 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 4: I mean, there's coaches, some of these young coaches. I 216 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 4: know with Andy. Andy's the flip. Andy, You'll say, well, Andy, 217 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 4: they won the Super Bowl. They play, But a lot 218 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 4: of it has to do with the health of your team. 219 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 4: You know, Zach Martin was not in camp for the 220 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 4: majority of it, you know, until we got back to Dallas. Basically, 221 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 4: you know, if you're asking me to put Dak Prescott 222 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 4: out there with the unknown offensive line just so we 223 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 4: could get five, six, seven snaps, I don't find that 224 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 4: very sensible, not at all. 225 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 9: Not. 226 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 4: All I need is all I need is awesome Richards 227 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 4: to bust on a play and then Dak get hit 228 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 4: that part they do. You know, in a this they're 229 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 4: not going to hit Dak, but in a game, they're 230 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 4: going to light him up. If they get the chance. 231 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 4: We saw what happened to Tony Romo in a game 232 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 4: in Seattle. You know, Dak's I almost said freshman year, 233 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 4: first year in the league. You know, I mean that 234 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 4: those are the things that happen when you play guys. 235 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm right there with you, and I've been an 236 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 8: advocate for sitting these guys, these starters for the entirety 237 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 8: of the preseason for that reason, and then eloquently put 238 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 8: by broadest when you talk about who they were going 239 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 8: up against, who this offense was going up against daily 240 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 8: in training camp, for me, the only scrimmage that you 241 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 8: could have held that would have been an equivalent of 242 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 8: what they were going up against in practice anyway, would 243 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 8: have been either against the forty nine ers who would 244 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,319 Speaker 8: have had to have Nick Bosa and they didn't because 245 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 8: he's holding out, or the Philadelphia Eagles defense. 246 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 5: With the starters playing. 247 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 8: If it's not one of those two, I had no 248 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 8: interest in scrimmaging against those those kinds of defenses because 249 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 8: if you look at what we saw every single day 250 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 8: and Oxner, the level of competition for this offense in 251 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 8: Trevon digg Stell, find Gilmore and Michael Parsons, DeMarcus Lawrence, 252 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 8: the list goes on, and all I'm Alik Hooker, j 253 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 8: Ron Curse. What benefit would you have gained from playing 254 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 8: them in a preseason game? 255 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 5: The offense? 256 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 8: I mean, because the only thing that you're doing is 257 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 8: risking them unnecessarily against defenses that aren't as good as 258 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 8: the defense you're gonna go practice against anyway. So I 259 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 8: saw all of that to say, I was all out, 260 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 8: and I'm glad that Mike McCarthy and the staff chose 261 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 8: to sit Dak Prescott for all of those reasons and 262 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 8: the additional reason though Zach Martin wasn't there and Tyler 263 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 8: Smith and Tyron Smith. Smith is still working for chemistry. 264 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 8: But then if you played Dak, you gotta play Tyron. 265 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 8: But then if you play Tyron, then you're risking Tyron Smith, 266 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 8: who has had injury issues in the past every single 267 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 8: year for nearly the past you know, most of the 268 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 8: past decade, is. 269 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 5: Just not worth it. 270 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 8: So for those that are wondering, well, what if they 271 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 8: come in and have rushed, my question being contextually thinking, 272 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 8: what would make you believe that they would have rust 273 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,719 Speaker 8: against a New York Giants defense that's not nearly as 274 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 8: good as the Cowboys defense they win against every single day. 275 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 6: Well, I'll tell you this, I personally think both things 276 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 6: can be true. I think there is a real possibility 277 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 6: they get into this game and it doesn't flow as 278 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 6: smoothly offensively to start the game and maybe even throughout 279 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 6: the game. 280 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 3: I think that's the nature. 281 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 6: Of you've got a new play caller, You've got a 282 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 6: lot of new parts. I think that is very, very realistic. 283 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 6: I also agree that you don't necessarily need to play 284 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 6: your starters in the preseason because, by the way, you're 285 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 6: not gonna be doing all the things you're gonna be 286 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 6: doing in Week one in the preseason, So it's not 287 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 6: like you're really gaining an advantage because you're gonna just 288 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 6: run out there and do some vanilla stuff and get 289 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 6: your starters off the field. That's not really getting them 290 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,359 Speaker 6: ready to be able to operate an efficiency. 291 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 3: So I think both things can be true. 292 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 4: I do expect that the. 293 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 6: Offense will probably get better as the season goes along 294 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 6: because mich McCarthy will start figuring out a little. 295 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 3: Bit more like what am I doing? 296 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 5: Right? 297 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 3: I mean, what am I doing? 298 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 6: My personnel They're going to start figuring out morell We 299 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 6: know what Mike likes to do in these situations, so 300 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 6: it makes sense Dak's gonna have a little more autonomy 301 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 6: this year. 302 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 3: According to reports. If that's true again, as season goes. 303 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 6: On, he will get better and he will get more depth, 304 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 6: and the rest of the offense will know, like Dak 305 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 6: likes to do these things in these situations. So it's 306 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 6: going to get better as the season goes along. There's 307 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 6: a real possibility it won't look great at the first 308 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 6: In the first game, because that's just the MAGA football. 309 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 4: Two years ago against Tampa looked great even though they 310 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 4: couldn't run the ball. Dak lit them up. You know, 311 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 4: Tampa was not I mean that was But then last 312 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 4: year again the rematch in Dallas, Dak and the offense 313 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 4: did not look great. So you're you're kind of caught 314 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 4: in between. I only I do agree with you about 315 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 4: there's advantages and disadvantages of this. But to me, the 316 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 4: fact that I have a healthy offense going in well 317 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 4: with the exception of what's happened with Tyler Smith, but 318 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 4: overall I'm pretty healthy going into this game. Uh And 319 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 4: you know, and so we'll see how that. 320 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 7: Plays honestly, I think more so than them playing or 321 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 7: not during the p seasons, something that I think will 322 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 7: be very beneficial and that was a really cool opportunity 323 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 7: was just having Dak calling plays in that last game 324 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 7: against the Raiders, right, and just them working together because 325 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 7: most of the time it was Mike McCarthy alongside with 326 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 7: Dak next to him, and that rarely ever happens. So 327 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 7: I think them working alongside, going through plays, okay, letting Dak, 328 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 7: seeing what Dak would call in certain situations, and just 329 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 7: kind of getting the feel of more of that what 330 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 7: he's thinking, what the quarterback is thinking versus Mike McCarthy, 331 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 7: and then hopefully examining after, you know, getting back in 332 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 7: the building and just going through things together. And I 333 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 7: think that just it's a whole different perspective that I 334 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 7: think was and can be very beneficial for their relationship 335 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 7: and what they can be doing in the offenses. 336 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, Greer probably wishes he called plays all three games, 337 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 4: just the last one, you know, because Will Greer, you know, 338 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 4: now practice squad with the Bengals spend Will Greer looked 339 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 4: the best he's looked all camp in that final game 340 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 4: against the Raiders. 341 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 6: All right, we're gonna take our first break. We will 342 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 6: come back and we'll get into the Scouts notebook.

Mike McCarthy did say that the 417 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 8: hope is to ramp all three of them up to 418 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 8: get in some practices at some point this week. 419 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 5: So that's where we are on all three of those players. 420 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 6: So basically, we don't know much more than we knew before. 421 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 6: We'll just keep an eye out and see how they 422 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 6: progress throughout the week heading into the game. Brian, let's 423 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 6: get to the scouts notebook. Let's talk Cowboys offense versus 424 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 6: Giants defense. 425 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, this one would be an interesting matchup just for 426 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 4: the fact that the skill players that the that the 427 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 4: the Giants have be a little bit different than what 428 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,679 Speaker 4: we've seen in the past, going with rookie cornerbacks at 429 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 4: a couple of different spots for them. They if you 430 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 4: want to everybody knows about the Giants is that you're 431 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 4: going to have to deal with their front. But I'll 432 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 4: come back to that. I want to focus a little 433 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 4: bit on Deontay Banks and then Trey Hawkins. Those are 434 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 4: two rookie corners. Banks was selected in the first round 435 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 4: out of Maryland and Hawkins was selected in the sixth 436 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 4: round out of Old Dominion. Now Dori Jackson will be 437 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 4: the starter opposite Banks. But when they go to Nickels, 438 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 4: So when the Cowboys get an eleven personnel, that means 439 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 4: and you're going to see that probably a lot. Yeah, 440 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 4: Dori Jackson will kick inside. Banks will play one corner 441 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 4: and Hawkins the other. Okay, let me tell you a 442 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 4: little bit about what we got with these two rookie corners. 443 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 4: Is with Banks, this guy has got ideal size. He's 444 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 4: got the physical side to his game. And I know 445 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 4: why the Giants did what they did with Wink Martindale 446 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 4: the defensive coordinator. He is big about this and when 447 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 4: it comes to his ability to pressure, he turns into 448 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 4: man to man coverage situations is what he does. So 449 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 4: Banks is a press man corner and then also to 450 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 4: Hawkins is a press man corner. So both these guys 451 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 4: are kind of sturdy, long guys and you know, not 452 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,120 Speaker 4: afraid to kind of mix it up at the line 453 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 4: of scrimmage. So he's going to play man on the 454 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 4: outside and he's gonna that way he could bring his 455 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 4: pressure packages in this football game and they run, Yeah, 456 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 4: they can't. They can't. Both of these guys can run 457 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 4: a little bit. So we'll see if Dallas can, if 458 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 4: Dallas can find ways. Now, the thing with Hawkins is 459 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 4: that when you watch him play, he has troubles when 460 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 4: routes break inside on him. So keep an eye on 461 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 4: how they attack him. Both these corners, believe it or not, 462 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 4: have problems when you go back shoulder on him. They 463 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 4: don't cover it. They kind of get with you. But 464 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 4: both guys have struggled with I was talking with a 465 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 4: scout that watched their practice against the Detroit Lions, and 466 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 4: the Lions kind of ate them up on some back 467 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,199 Speaker 4: shoulder stuff. So keep an eye on on that. So 468 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 4: but with Hawkins, again, young guy got some length, banks, 469 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 4: he's got something. Both these guys will tackle. Both these 470 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 4: guys want to be physical in the way that they play. 471 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 4: So and then adri Jackson is a guy that in 472 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 4: the slot, he's comfortable playing that role where he can 473 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,679 Speaker 4: kind of carry guys all up and down the field, 474 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 4: all inside and stuff. So again, young group on the outside, 475 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 4: and they're gonna probably have their moments where they're going 476 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 4: to struggle a little bit but both are gonna probably 477 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 4: play pressman. Dallas is gonna have to win on the 478 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 4: line of scrimmage. Okay, up front, now you're dealing with 479 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 4: with with with Dexter Lawrence. I think Dexter Lawrence is 480 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 4: the biggest problem here. Three hundred and forty pound type 481 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 4: of a player. You know, he had seven and a 482 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 4: half sacks last year. Okay, twenty eight quarterback hits, seven 483 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 4: tackles for loss. He on the on the two games 484 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 4: against Dallas, he had the five tackles in one quarter. 485 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 4: Dallas did a pretty good job of handling him. Another 486 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 4: guy you kind of need to keep an eye on, though. 487 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 4: I know everybody talks about Cavon Thibodeau, and his first 488 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 4: start against the Cowboys was in Week three, did nothing. 489 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 4: In Week twelve he had five quarterback hits. So his 490 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 4: game got better as the season war along for him. 491 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 4: Aziz Ojelari, they him around, Yeah, they move around, they 492 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 4: move him around. Yeah. Aziz Ojelari is the one guy 493 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 4: that I think that you need to also keep a 494 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 4: close eye on. This guy had five and a half 495 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 4: sacks and seven games. Okay, So every time you're thinking 496 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 4: about dealing with Thibodeau, you got Ojelari. Now again you're 497 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 4: gonna have to deal with that. But the power that 498 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 4: they play with inside with Lawrence and then the outside 499 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 4: pressure they get from Ojelari and Thibodeaux will be a 500 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 4: little bit of a factor there. And the young corners. 501 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,159 Speaker 4: How can you take advantage of the young corners on 502 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 4: the outside, two rookie guys veteran inside on the nickel 503 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 4: though again struggle with some inside breaking routes, Gonna play 504 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 4: man coverage. Maybe some back shoulder throws might be in 505 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 4: the in the carts for the Cowboys this week. 506 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 8: What I love about that is that exactly hits on 507 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 8: my biggest matchup as far as once I was looking 508 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 8: at dissecting the excuse me, the Giants defense and looking 509 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 8: for weaknesses, and their defensive front is one of the 510 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 8: stronger ones as are as it goes in the NFC 511 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 8: East right now, Commanders, Eagles, Giants, that's what the Cowboys 512 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 8: are up against. But if the Cowboys can protect up 513 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 8: front and really execute as far as getting the ball 514 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 8: out quickly, which we believe they will do via the 515 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 8: Texas Coast offense, then these young corners, I mean, you 516 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 8: gotta test them, and you gotta test them often. I 517 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 8: love the fact that Brian said that, you know they 518 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,400 Speaker 8: struggle a bit when it comes to back shoulder. Well, 519 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 8: guess what we saw him An Oxnard that Dak Prescott 520 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 8: has become kind of lethal with that back shoulder right 521 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 8: ceedee Lamb Brandon Cooks. So I think that's something to 522 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,959 Speaker 8: exploit there. But I harken back to, you know, seeing 523 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 8: what Aaron Rodgers was able to do against a young guy, 524 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 8: and Kelvin Joseph, seeing what Trevor Lung Lawrence and Peterson 525 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 8: were able to do against a young guy and Kevin Joseph. 526 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 8: This is what the Cowboys need to do. Look at 527 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 8: both of those young corners and say, we know that 528 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 8: you have some ability. But number one, here's the psychological game. 529 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 8: Because when they line up, they're lining up coming from 530 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 8: not I mean not Power five schools, Maryland, Old Dominion, 531 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 8: No knock to those schools, but it's a different level. Okay, 532 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 8: you saw Jaylen Torbert struggle with that. They're going to 533 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 8: be primetime week one against the Dallas Cowboys lining up 534 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 8: against Cook's lamb gallop. Sometimes, is it going to be? 535 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,439 Speaker 8: Is the moment too big for these young guys? Maybe 536 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 8: maybe not find out test them early, try to rattle them, 537 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 8: get in their nerves, get in their head. And I 538 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,719 Speaker 8: think that's something that Mike McCarthy and Brian Schottenheimer are 539 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 8: very capable of doing, and they have the talent on 540 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 8: the offensive side of the ball to do it. So 541 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 8: for me, as long as you can get the ball 542 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 8: out quickly, which will help neutralize guys like Dexter Lawrence, 543 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 8: my former dog Azizo, delay some of these other guys 544 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,640 Speaker 8: Leonard Williams, then you can really take advantage of those 545 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,439 Speaker 8: young guys because yes, so Dory Jackson is going to 546 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,159 Speaker 8: be on the field, but primarily when they're in the 547 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 8: nickel set. Put these young guys to the grinder. Seriously, 548 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 8: talk to me about their ability. 549 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 6: I'm talking specifically about the Cowboys wide receivers, that group 550 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 6: you just mentioned about their ability to get off press 551 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 6: because that obviously is something that giants are gonna want 552 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 6: to do and they got long guys. And typically when 553 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 6: you got long guys, especially when youre trying to get 554 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 6: the ball out quick, they have ability to be able 555 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 6: to if they got good ability, they can get you 556 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 6: off the line scrammants, draw off your timing, and then 557 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 6: because they're long, if it's a slant route, they can 558 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 6: get that hand in there like they have the ability 559 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 6: to be able. 560 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 3: To cover those kinds of routes. 561 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,919 Speaker 6: What do we see from these from the cowboys receivers 562 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 6: with the guards getting off the press, Well, what. 563 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 4: We've noticed been the practices an ox Nard is that 564 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 4: what's the one thing that the McCarthy and Schottenhammer trying 565 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 4: to create for DAK separation separation because they understand that 566 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 4: some of the things that he's had to deal with 567 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 4: with the turnovers have dealt with some contested throws or 568 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 4: not finishings routes and things like that. So to me, 569 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 4: when you start to talk about the route combinations that 570 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 4: I would run against, I would I would drag these 571 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,239 Speaker 4: kids through traffic, is what I would do. And we 572 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 4: saw that a little bit in an ox Stark with 573 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 4: the crossing routes, the underneath stuff, the seed lamb. You know, 574 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 4: with the old the old administration, it was more run 575 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 4: routes and then kind of get to a spot here 576 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 4: you got the cowboys with when you talk about cooks 577 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 4: and lamb and got these guys play better on the move. 578 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,479 Speaker 4: Gallup is a little bit more of a vertical player. 579 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 4: But if you could run, if you run receivers through trash, 580 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 4: and especially if they're going to play man coverage, you 581 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 4: know the way that Wink Martindale wants to attack you 582 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 4: with the blitz, then you have to be Then then 583 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 4: you have to put them to task that if you 584 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 4: run them through and all of a sudden you've got uh, say, 585 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 4: you got Ferguson and now you've got picks, you're creating 586 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 4: these opportunities. They're going to try and create a lot 587 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 4: of separation. I think that's where the Cowboys could definitely 588 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 4: do some good in this football game because these young kids, Yeah, 589 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 4: they play well in man, but like I mentioned with Hawkins, 590 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 4: he tends to have a little bit of a problem 591 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 4: when you run him inside, like in that trail and 592 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 4: like the eyes turn into oh I'm running through the 593 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 4: forest here right now, and then you lose track. But 594 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 4: that gives Dak a little bit easier for a throw. 595 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 4: I think that's the whole thing with the Cowboy offense 596 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,199 Speaker 4: this year. How can you give Dak those easier throws 597 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 4: and these receivers have the ability to play on the move. 598 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 8: Separation that's the word that's the word. That's something that 599 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 8: the Cowboys receiver struggled with last year. That's something that 600 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 8: the Cowboy maybe a little bit to do with scheme 601 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 8: that as well. So you got McCarthy's calling in the 602 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,719 Speaker 8: plays now in coordination with Schottenheimer and Dak Prescott. Dek 603 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 8: Prescott's going to have a lot of feedback in that 604 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 8: as well. And you have the you have the skill set, 605 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 8: you have Cooks, you have Tobert ready to take the 606 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 8: lead gallop looking for a bounce back. CD has now 607 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 8: ascended to the role of WR one. So separation is 608 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 8: now a thing in Dallas, and that's exciting. 609 00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 7: I think it goes along, sorry with like confidence looking 610 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 7: back at where they were. 611 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 4: Confidence. 612 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 7: Okay, listen, my eyes are sensitive. It's very bright in here. 613 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 4: I'm not trying to act cool. So just okay, I 614 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 4: thought were. 615 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 3: No no, no, no, no, no, Maria. 616 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 4: Go ahead. I'm sorry, I. 617 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 7: Don't know what the heck I was saying. Confidence. 618 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 4: Confidence, there we go, Okay, let's go back. 619 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 7: Confidence. I think this team, looking at where we're at 620 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 7: right now and looking at where they were at the 621 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 7: same time of the around last year, it looks very different. 622 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 7: You look at what happened at training can be They 623 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 7: talk about the receivers. These receivers have speed. Everyone seems 624 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 7: to be on the same page they are. They just 625 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 7: have better chemistry with Dak And it's just as opposed 626 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 7: to last year we were wondering, Okay, who's gonna be 627 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 7: the guy? There were a lot of questions in the 628 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 7: wide receiver groups still even wondering, can't see the lamb 629 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 7: really be the number one guy for the Cowboys? And 630 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 7: this year I think you more set, you know what 631 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 7: you got, and there's a lot more confidence in the 632 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 7: aspect of Okay, everyone knows who can do what. Everyone 633 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 7: is on the same page. They've been practicing, they've been 634 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 7: connecting a lot. And at the same time, this if 635 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 7: it goes well, which I have a feeling that it will, 636 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 7: and you talk about these young corners, it should be 637 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 7: a really really good matchup for the Cowboys and them 638 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 7: being successful in this game, in the passing game like 639 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 7: that should give them a really good boost of confidence 640 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 7: to start the year. Ride and then trying to face 641 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 7: Aaron Rodgers week two here at at and T Stadium. 642 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 4: Protection about this game, because if you're going to run, 643 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 4: if you're going to try and separate on routes and 644 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 4: crossing routes and stuff like that. Man, it has to 645 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 4: be you cannot let dexter Lawrence and Ojulari and Thibodeaux 646 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 4: just wreck shop up front. 647 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 7: Would this be more of a running game or passing 648 00:30:59,080 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 7: game or just. 649 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,479 Speaker 4: A think it's going to be if you if like 650 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 4: Patrick was talking about, I think if you could protect, 651 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 4: I think you can make some place. To me, I'm 652 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 4: not I don't know if I really want to challenge 653 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 4: inside with Lawrence and then now even though with Martin 654 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 4: and then also steal on that right side and throw 655 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 4: in a better blocking Ferguson and then what we get 656 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 4: from Schoonmaker as a blocker. I think, you know, there 657 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 4: there's some there's some opportunities. But again, I think it's 658 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 4: going to be more when it's at I think it's 659 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 4: going to be more when you're talking about going at Thibadeau, 660 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 4: because he wants to get up the field so much 661 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 4: so if you could find a way to widen him 662 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 4: and then attack that that gap that he's that he's 663 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 4: on the outside, and I think that's your best bet. 664 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 4: I'm not Lawrence and and those guys inside, and you know, 665 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 4: I just think it's a it's a difficult ass to 666 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 4: sit there and have to move those guys all day. 667 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 8: I think you have, like Brian said, I think you 668 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 8: have opportunities to run, especially with you know, a guy 669 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 8: like Zach Martin on the field, and if Tyler Smith 670 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 8: does take the field, then you have that power inside 671 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 8: as well. Tellabiadis looks like he's taking in another step 672 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 8: over his Pro Bowl season last year, so you'll have 673 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 8: opportunities to run. 674 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 5: I think you need to attack. 675 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 8: This Giants team in space and on the outside, and 676 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 8: that's how you're going to. 677 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 5: Neutralize those pass rushers. 678 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 8: That's also going to set you up for plays down 679 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 8: the field because now those safeties they're going to start 680 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 8: cheating forward. They're going to have their eyes forward because 681 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 8: they're getting attacked at the second level more so than anything. 682 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 8: That's when you tell Michael Gallup or Brandon Cooks or 683 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 8: Cee Lamb go and then it gets past them. It's 684 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 8: over the top and that's a big play. So now 685 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 8: they have to start playing back a little bit. So 686 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 8: guess what, there's the yo yo. It opens up the 687 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,959 Speaker 8: underneath the game. So I think all of it plays 688 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 8: into the next thing. But for me, the primary goal 689 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 8: would be to attack outside in space at the first 690 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 8: and second level and then let everything else open up. 691 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 5: Because of that. 692 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, if you go back and watch the Thanksgiving Day game, 693 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 4: they were able to hit some plays on the edge. 694 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 4: Pollard's quickness was a problem for the Giants when he 695 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 4: hit the hole and he was able to second level 696 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 4: that thing. That's where they were able to make some good. 697 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 6: All right, let's seacon, our final break will come back. 698 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 6: I got some questions for these guys about this matchup. 699 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 6: One of the questions I'm gonna have for you, guys, 700 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 6: I'm gonna give you four names.

We're 765 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 6: talking about Tony Pollard, Ceedee Lamb, Jake Ferguson, Brandon Cooks. 766 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 3: Let's put them in order. Brian, you're up first. 767 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 4: One more time because I was answering a text message. 768 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I'm doing like eight things. 769 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 3: I know, I get it. 770 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 6: Tony Pollard, Ceedee Lamb, Jake Ferguson, Brandon Cooks. 771 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 4: As far as okay, Ceedee Lamb Cooks. The other two. 772 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:49,879 Speaker 6: Again, Ferguson and Pollard Pollard, Ferguson, so what was Jordan again, Lamb. 773 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 4: Lamb Cooks Pollard, Ferguson explain, I feel like you're gonna 774 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 4: have to find it. We just went through this whole 775 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 4: thing with the giants on the you know, with what's 776 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 4: going on at their corner situation with the two rookies. 777 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 4: I think you have to take advantage of that. Then 778 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 4: when if you could take advantage of that, then you're 779 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 4: gonna be able to need to run the ball a 780 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,839 Speaker 4: little bit. You can't just totally go into a passing game. 781 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,400 Speaker 4: They're going to talk about balance. I think Pollard in 782 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,400 Speaker 4: that point, his ability to pop some runs, you know, 783 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 4: get you some positive yards, kind of stay ahead of 784 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 4: the change, I think is always a good thing for 785 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,440 Speaker 4: the play caller to deal with. And then Ferguson, I 786 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,919 Speaker 4: think is kind of the wildcat player in this thing 787 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 4: in a way, or the wild card excuse me, the 788 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 4: kind of player where Okay, boots waggles ball to the outside, 789 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 4: maybe him on the drags and stuff like that. Maybe 790 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 4: that's two or three first downs in a game with him. 791 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 4: So if he has five catches three first downs, I 792 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 4: think that's kind of but you got to win on 793 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 4: the outside, run the ball a little bit and then 794 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 4: two or three first downs from my tight end. 795 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 7: I think for me, I would go Cooks, CD, Ferguson, 796 00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 7: and then Pollard. I think. I mean, I love everything 797 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 7: that CD has shown so far, but I cannot go 798 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 7: with cook as Cooks as number one right now because 799 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 7: I've loved every single thing I've seen from him. And 800 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 7: when you talk about these young corners and the speed 801 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 7: and the ability that Cooks has, not that Cit doesn't, 802 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 7: because he does, but it's just something fresh, and I 803 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 7: think he's been having great chemistry with Dak and it's 804 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 7: gonna be this game to me right now, the way 805 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 7: I see it, it'll be relying more on the passing game. 806 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 7: Ferguson I mentioned before yesterday how for some reason, every 807 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,720 Speaker 7: game against the Giants, Titans tend to do very well. 808 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 7: So I can see a game where he has a 809 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 7: good game too in the passing game, and then Parler. 810 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 7: I still the running game. I still have questions. I'm 811 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 7: not one hundred percent sure there is a lot of 812 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 7: talent there, but also what's happening with the O line 813 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,759 Speaker 7: right now? Questions there are they gonna be able. I 814 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,800 Speaker 7: don't want to sound like I'm liking confidence to start 815 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 7: the season with the O line because you still have 816 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 7: veteran guys. They are very well experienced, but there's still 817 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,919 Speaker 7: some question marks for me as far as the running game. 818 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 5: For me, I'm going to go Lamb, Cooks, Pollard Ferguson. 819 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,399 Speaker 8: And my reasoning is, and I love and we all 820 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 8: love everything Brandon Cooks is put in front of us 821 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 8: in training camp. You can't help but love it. And 822 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 8: I feel that he's going to want to hit the 823 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,839 Speaker 8: ground running. Cowboys gonna want him to hit the ground running. 824 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:42,399 Speaker 8: They're going to try to take advantage of these young 825 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 8: corners that we talked about. So between Cooks and Lamb, 826 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 8: you're going to see a lot of targets. I just 827 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:52,280 Speaker 8: think Lamb is walking with a different level of swagger 828 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,240 Speaker 8: than we've seen him in his young NFL career. 829 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 5: I mean, he just he. 830 00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 8: Looks every bit the part talk about confidence, His confidence 831 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 8: right now is absolutely bulletproof. It is the exact opposite 832 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 8: nearly of what we saw going into the beginning of 833 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 8: last year when he was trying to figure out and 834 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 8: navigate being the top wide receiver and there was maybe 835 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,799 Speaker 8: some self doubt that crept In can I do this. 836 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 8: But now he's walking in like I'm the man. I 837 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,920 Speaker 8: am absolutely him. So I think that he wants to 838 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 8: prove that and he's going to play off of any 839 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 8: success that Brandon Cooks has as well. So I think 840 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 8: Lamb is going to be the top pro or the 841 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 8: biggest impact player for the offense then Cooks, which is right, 842 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 8: there's like a one A one B equation. I struggle 843 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 8: between Ferguson and Pollard only because to Ambarn's point, tight 844 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 8: ends typically wreck the New York Giants if you're in 845 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,919 Speaker 8: the Cowboys uniform. So I think that Ferguson, which also 846 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 8: goes to Brian's point, he will have some key third 847 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:46,840 Speaker 8: down conversions. He'll have some key plays in the middle 848 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 8: of the field that's going to help Lamb and Cooks 849 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:50,920 Speaker 8: keep things uperating on the outside. 850 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 5: But I think once you established. 851 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 8: Lamb and Cooks, you're gonna hit Tony Pollard like Tony 852 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 8: Pollitt is going to give you that pop, gonna give 853 00:40:58,200 --> 00:40:59,839 Speaker 8: you that big play here or there. And that also 854 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 8: goes to the running back group as a whole. Douce 855 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,720 Speaker 8: vall Ricododo. So I think that as far as impact goes, 856 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 8: Ferguson he could walk away with it. You know, a 857 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 8: day where it was fifty yards receiving, but if you 858 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,439 Speaker 8: look at, yeah, the catches, it was you know, four 859 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 8: catches fifty yards with three of those were third down conversions. 860 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,359 Speaker 8: But then in all in all, when you go back 861 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 8: and look at how the game flow went, I think 862 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 8: Pollard will have had a bigger impact than Ferguson. 863 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 5: So that's that's my line. 864 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:25,919 Speaker 4: One of the better, real quick, one of the better 865 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 4: two point plays they practiced with it Camp involve Ferguson 866 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 4: when they drove cooks inside and like picked and then 867 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 4: Ferguson just released so stuff down on the goal line 868 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 4: when you start and you know we're you're going to 869 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 4: have to replace that ability to hammer the ball. Then 870 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 4: they're like when you had with when you had with 871 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 4: Ezekiel Elliott. So maybe it comes to be a little 872 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 4: bit more deceptive, and maybe that's where Ferguson also one 873 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 4: of those five catches is something a little creative in 874 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:50,120 Speaker 4: that time. 875 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 6: One thing I will say, I kind of agree with 876 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:57,720 Speaker 6: the Amber on the order of cooks and Lamb taking 877 00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 6: cooks first. The reason why I say that is because 878 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 6: I do think that teams will go into this year thinking, Okay, 879 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 6: the one player I think that they'll look at, or 880 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 6: if you want to even pay two players. Pollard and 881 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 6: Lamb are the two players that opposing defenses, at least 882 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,120 Speaker 6: at the early part of this season, are going to say, 883 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 6: if you're playing the Cowboys offense, those players you need 884 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 6: to be concerned with. I think it is incumbent on 885 00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:22,320 Speaker 6: Cooks and McCarthy early in the season to force teams 886 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 6: to recognize that Cooks can beat you deep and he 887 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 6: can do it regularly if you let him. He can 888 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:28,879 Speaker 6: also beat you on crossing routes that he could turn 889 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 6: into a forty yard touchdown. 890 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 4: Right. 891 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 6: I think that's where it changes the whole dynamic and 892 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 6: makes this offense really go. So I put Cooks maybe 893 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,799 Speaker 6: as the most important offensive player at least in the 894 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 6: week one for me, because I think it changes how 895 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 6: defense is going forward. Will have to respect the Cowboys offense. 896 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,720 Speaker 6: I think what we saw last year in that final 897 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 6: game against San Francisco, they basically said, we're gonna take 898 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 6: Lamb away who you got, and I think they have 899 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 6: to for that's why the Cowboys went out and got Cooks. 900 00:42:56,719 --> 00:43:00,360 Speaker 6: They got a foce Opponents to realize Cooks is a problem, 901 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 6: and so you can choose which one you want. But 902 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 6: if you're going to devote a lot of extra attention 903 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,320 Speaker 6: to Lamb, we got a guy that's gonna kill you 904 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:07,879 Speaker 6: another side. 905 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 8: You know. 906 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 4: It's funny Lamb had that he was not very good 907 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,320 Speaker 4: the first half the game that was played at the Meadowlands, 908 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 4: and then in the second half he just ate the 909 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 4: Giants up. He took over that third quarter. I believe it. 910 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:18,320 Speaker 3: That was just coming out part that was that. 911 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 4: Was when all of a sudden. So if you could 912 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 4: get something like that, you know, start right off the 913 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,480 Speaker 4: jump and then like you said, get Cooks down the field. 914 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 4: I think, uh, it's five really good names to to 915 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 4: think about that have to I think, have to play well. 916 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,239 Speaker 8: The Giants defense just doesn't have the personnel to match 917 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,680 Speaker 8: up man to man against the Cowboys offensive personnel. That's 918 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 8: just the bottom line. So if you can protect up front, 919 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 8: you're not buying these rookies. 920 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 5: I'm not buying these rookies. 921 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 4: And Banks is a Banks is a good player. 922 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 8: This isn't me saying that these guys don't belong in 923 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:52,359 Speaker 8: the league. That's not what I'm saying. I'm not saying 924 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 8: they're trash. 925 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 5: I'm not. That's not what I'm saying. 926 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:59,400 Speaker 4: I'm to go ahead and say it if you want, Yeah, 927 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 4: I mean San Francisco Matt, I want to douse. 928 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, that will make me no different than the engagement farmers. 929 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 8: So objectively speaking, yeah, I don't want to be a 930 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 8: shady guy. So objectively speaking, these guys have skill sets. 931 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,720 Speaker 8: Those two rookies, they have skill sets, but their skill 932 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:19,360 Speaker 8: set right now is nowhere near as developed to the 933 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 8: point where you can look at them and look at 934 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 8: who they're matching up against, the Lamb Gallop Cooks, maybe 935 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 8: Kelante Turpin, whatever the case may be, and objectively sit 936 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 8: back and say that's a matchup that works in the 937 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 8: giants favor. It absolutely does not work in the giants favor. 938 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 8: So attack those young guys. See if the moment is 939 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,359 Speaker 8: too big for them, See if the lights are too bright, 940 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 8: because I promise you, the first big play that one 941 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 8: of those young guys gives up, they're going to try 942 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 8: and start sinking into themselves a little bit, and then 943 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 8: you can snowball that impact and then really have a 944 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 8: field day against that particular guy or both of those guys, 945 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 8: which then makes the day that much harder for those 946 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,359 Speaker 8: safeties back there, because if your corners are struggling, your 947 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:58,360 Speaker 8: safeties are in for a long afternoon. 948 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 5: But it starts with protecting up front. 949 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 3: All right, appreciate you guys, join us. 950 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 5: We're back tomorrow. 951 00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,240 Speaker 6: We're gonna get into the Cowboys defense versus the Giants offense. 952 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 3: Till then. 953 00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 6: For Patrick Walker, Brian Brodus, Amber Garcia, I am Derek Gilton. 954 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 6: This has been the Break live on Dallas Cowboys dot 955 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 6: Com Radio. 956 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and 957 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
