Yeah, at and T 12 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 1: Stadium Sunday three twenty five kick and we talked a 13 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: lot about trying to defend Aaron Rodgers yesterday as usual, 14 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: no easy chore there, and we broke down some of 15 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: the injuries on both sides that these teams are dealing 16 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: with a month into the season. We got a little 17 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: more clarity on that today and we'll see what the 18 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: you know, what the Cowboys can do with some of 19 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: their injuries, especially up front. What are you guys here 20 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: and there? Well, I would think depends which front you're 21 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: talking about. You're that's a good question, that's a good point. 22 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: Maybe start with the offensive because I was gonna say, 23 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: I see little hope for Tyrone Crawford to get back. No, 24 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: Tyron Smith is out. Yes, I got a feeling Collins 25 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: they're gonna do what they need to do to get 26 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: them to the game. Yeah. I think it'll be similar 27 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: to what they've been doing with Zach Martin. It's like, 28 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: don't wear them out during the week and let that 29 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: back heal up as good as possible, and then have 30 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: him ready to play in the game. I mak He's 31 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: absolutely right about Collins. I think he'll be practicing tomorrow 32 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: when they go out there. Nothing today but give him 33 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: another day. They gave him Wednesday with the pads outside. 34 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: They got that taken care of. They give him today 35 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: and then they just practice him up on Friday, you 36 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: know when he needs to the short yardage, goal line 37 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: stuff that they're gonna do. Think two minutes involved as well, 38 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think that you know, if they can, 39 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: if they can get him to the game, I think 40 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: that's the most important thing for them. They're gonna need 41 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: him to play. They can't go into this game down 42 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: two offensive tackles, and I think they realize that, and 43 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: you know that's why we're seeing Connor Williams move around 44 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 1: and you know, try and fill a couple of spots. 45 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: But yeah, they need to get they need to get 46 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: LC out there ready to go. Yeah, it was almost 47 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: good that they get Williams some snaps at tackle just 48 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 1: in case, absolutely, because if something happens in the game, 49 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: then he's probably the next guy up out there. They 50 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: were planning to do that. You know, he was going 51 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: to be part of the rotation Smith out with Smith out, Yeah, 52 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 1: he was gonna get some rotational snaps. So this would 53 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: just give him a full actually a couple of two 54 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: full practices to you know, the things that offensive tackles 55 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: that are. It's different for them as far as playing guard. 56 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: You know, we talk about everything that goes on inside, 57 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: but it's also the way you look at the rusher, 58 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: how you play on your outside eye. You know, you 59 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: have to be able to see that rusher and so 60 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: you know, with with guard you kind of get all 61 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: in the big muddle there, but on that tackle you 62 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: have to be able to have that vision to kind 63 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: of see that guy to the outside. So it's good 64 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: that Connor Williams, if he has to go out there, 65 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: at least that's not something. And then and it jogs 66 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: brings back memories of him. Okay, when I was at 67 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: Texas and I was playing left tackle, I kick kick 68 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: kick punch, you know, kick kick, kick punch. You know, 69 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: he gets him back in that rhythm again. And if 70 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: the if the Packers continue to play their outside linebackers 71 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: the way they have, Brian's right that that guy's pretty 72 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: wide world wide. You can't sit there and be looking 73 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: out there and say, okay, that's the guy. He's coming 74 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: right exactly. So the peripheral vision a little bit port 75 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: brings it back to him. Yeah, when you studied him 76 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: at Texas and graded him pre draft, Williamson, did you 77 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: grade him as a tackle or a guard? Well, yeah, 78 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: I did. We grade him as a tackle. And the 79 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 1: thing that it was impressive, And I've said this before 80 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: many a time with Dave helm and I we did 81 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 1: our Texas swing, the Texas trying where we went through 82 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 1: the you know Texas A and M A University of 83 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: Texas and we were there for the pro days, and 84 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: I remember the Saints offensive line coach was working him 85 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 1: out as as a not only a tackle, a guard 86 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: and also as a center, so they were looking at 87 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: all three spots for him. They thought that he had 88 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: that kind of flexibility. But his grades when when the 89 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 1: season started, he was one of the top tackles in 90 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: the draft, and then he got hurt and then things 91 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: kind of fell apart for him a little bit and 92 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: then lasted to the second round, but still very talented 93 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: players as we've seen. How do you guys think he's 94 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: played so far left guard through four games. I think 95 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: there's you know, Garrett likes to say, you know, it's 96 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 1: there's some good, but then there's some things you need 97 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: to work on. And I think that's a fair assessment 98 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: to him. And I'm not trying to ride the fence 99 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: and say, oh, he's been horrible. He's been boy, he's 100 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: been really great and oversell it and all that. I 101 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: think when you grate sixty five plays to him, there 102 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: could be sixty plays that are really good and then 103 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: there's five plays where you go, man, if he just 104 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: was a little bit more patient. I think that's where 105 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: Lyle Collins is kind of making some hay right now 106 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 1: that he is no longer being so aggressive that he 107 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: has to punch, he has to say he has to. 108 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: You know. It's this thing where he's like, Okay, I'm 109 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: gonna let this rusher come to me. I'm strong enough, 110 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna set, I'm gonna bend my knees and I'm 111 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: gonna take this guy out. And I think that's where 112 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 1: Connor Williams hasn't learned yet. I think Connor Williams really 113 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: trust himself to sit there and play patiently enough. When 114 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: a guy on his nose, he wants to get that 115 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 1: first punch to stop the charge. And then he's and 116 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: then he gets a little overextended when he misses. See 117 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 1: with Collins, that was a problem with Collins. You know, Mickey, 118 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 1: we've all watched practice before. When Collins is bad. What's 119 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: wrong with Collins? His hands, his hands go outside and 120 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: he doesn't get that inside punch. If you're patient, you 121 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: fire your hands inside, you get control and then you work. 122 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: Connor Williams, those five plays I talk about will get 123 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: over extended, he'll get beat and he'll look bad. But overall, 124 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 1: I mean their offensive lineman. They would love to have 125 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: his athletic ability, his ability to bend, to turn, to 126 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: get the second level, to get out on a screen. 127 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: You know, all those things are really really positive about 128 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: him as a player. But he's just, you know, he's 129 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 1: he's a young guy. He's gonna, you know, when they 130 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: when he gets into where he's twenty six, twenty seven, 131 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 1: twenty eight years old, he's gonna learn how to whole 132 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: trip and clip, you know, and when he learns all 133 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: those things, I think he'll be all right. And he's 134 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: pretty smart and he'll learn that stuff. And I think 135 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: what happens when you're judging offensive lineman as a whole. 136 00:06:54,000 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: We judge how they perform pass block, and if guy 137 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: gets by him, then okay, this guy's not playing well. 138 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 1: But no one says, well, he's got to be better 139 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: against the run, right, you know, because he's been good 140 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: against the run. I think that And I'm kind of 141 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: the same way a little bit with Cam Fleming. I 142 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: judge him how he passed protects, and if you watch 143 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: him run block, and it's like it ain't pretty, but 144 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: he kind of gets it done. Yeah, he's better run 145 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: blocking than he is pass blocking. That's true. I don't 146 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: know if that makes sense or not when you're you 147 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: know that big. But so if if if Williams whiffs 148 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: on a on a pass block, like Brian said, once 149 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: out of sixty five, and it's like, wow, he's not playing, well, yeah, 150 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: well what about the other snaps a lot of plays 151 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: in the game over Yeah, see, that's what you're not playing. 152 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: You know those first three games, the offensive line, you 153 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: weren't sitting there going, oh man, they're making a bunch 154 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: of mistakes. Yeah, you know, they were pretty good where 155 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: you saw the problems if you want to grade run 156 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: blocking problems, Yeah, against the Saints, where if you do 157 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: miss a guy then it's very evident. Zekielett for one. 158 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: You know when they when they when they miss a 159 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: backside scoop, Ezekielett for three, Ezeki Elett for two. You 160 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: know that's where all of a sudden you start going, Okay, 161 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: they're struggling in this and and and trust me, five 162 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: guys struggled in that football game run block. In the 163 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,559 Speaker 1: other day, Travis Frederick provided some insight on that yesterday said, 164 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: there really weren't that many plays where everybody was in 165 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: concert at the same he's the same time and The 166 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: Saints also did a good job of bringing some he 167 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: called it generalized pressures where they can run, they can 168 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: work whether it's a run or a pass right, and 169 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: they were effective doing that and dialed up some good stuff. Yeah, 170 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: and he thought the pre credit, he thought he thought 171 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 1: the communication was fine. They didn't They didn't really misscommunicate 172 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: on anything over the noise, but it was just the 173 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: execution part with the ball was I think that was 174 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: the biggest problem in that game for them. I mean, 175 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: they didn't have a sack until that final drive of 176 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: the game. I mean there's some pressure, but you're gonna 177 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: get pressure in the National Football League. You're gonna get 178 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 1: You're gonna get your quarterback are riled up a little bit. 179 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: But I think the run blocking is something when they 180 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: go back and to say, Okay, maybe my head didn't 181 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,079 Speaker 1: get all the way across, Maybe I'd got to take 182 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: a better step, Maybe I need to take a flatter 183 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: zone step to get that guy. I think there were 184 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: some things technique wise that hurt them in the running 185 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: game there, you know what, And I think you got 186 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:21,559 Speaker 1: you gotta credit seek yesterday because people were asking him 187 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 1: questions like do you feel like you need to come 188 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: back and redeem yourself. That's all right, Well, try being 189 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: a running back when no one's blocking for you. Never. 190 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: That's why running backs are always very complimentary of their 191 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: offensive line. They know they're not doing that by themselves. 192 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: And he didn't do that by himself thirty five yards. 193 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: It wasn't like he didn't know where he was going 194 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: or he wasn't running hard. Now, sure he's he's taken, 195 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: you know, full blame for the fumble, which wasn't a fumble, 196 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 1: but good for him. So I thought he liked that 197 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: he handled all that so well yesterday he didn't say like, well, yeah, 198 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: no one's blocking for me, not me. Now. He never 199 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: does that with his line, and he's always the first 200 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: to give him credit. So we'll see. We talked about 201 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: the Packers run defense. Maybe there's some opportunities there maybe 202 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: or maybe they're really gonna keep we'll see. Um, okay, 203 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: let's let's run down the injury report again. Michael Gallop, 204 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: what did you see from him yesterday? What are your 205 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: thoughts on him as we get into Thursday? Here, Michael 206 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: gap is playing a little possum mickey, Yeah, I think so. 207 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 1: I think he's ready to go. He's ready to go. Yeah, 208 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: he's he's gonna in the media, it's gotta come out. Well, 209 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna. I like what he's doing because 210 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: I think Michael Gallup is ready to go, because I 211 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: think he told us yesterday today will be the test. Yeah, 212 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: Well he had to see what happened after he practiced 213 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 1: on because when you've had a scope like that, sometimes 214 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: your your knee will swell up. Yeah, get more activity. 215 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: So I think that's what he meant because he was 216 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: running just fine that I saw. They were talking about 217 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: a fifteen yard dig that he ran where he just 218 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: you know, ran hard up the field, burst inside and 219 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: then caught the ball and then went on the move. 220 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,599 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, okay, you guys, Yeah, I know, 221 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 1: Michael's Michael looked good out there. They were really happy 222 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: the way he now. Mickey's right now. Now they practiced 223 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: on the turf today. They were on grass yesterday's. Yeah, 224 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: so we'll see if if you know, if there's maybe 225 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: more a little bit more limitation. We'll play on turf 226 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: on Sunday, same type of field. But you know, they 227 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: will see with this one. But all indications coming out 228 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: of practice, I think that Michael Gallup was kind of 229 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 1: playing with you a little bit there. He also does 230 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: Britt was calling for him to go get treatment after 231 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: it was like, you've had one practice, you know. He 232 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: doesn't want to get in trouble either with that training staff, like, oh, 233 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: let's just take this day by day, do what they 234 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: tell me to do. Yeah, but it's looking like he's 235 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: on track to get back after a couple of weeks, 236 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,719 Speaker 1: which is really impressive. Britt will come and find you, now, 237 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: that's right, Yeah, he will. I saw him do that 238 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: last week with Antoine. I think Antoine was a little 239 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: late getting back over there, and don't make him more. 240 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: He got the he got the eye. Yeah, are you 241 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: done yet? You know kind of that you've done? Yett? 242 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: You do, and I'm waiting for you. Yeah, yeah, exactly. 243 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: Anything else pop up on the injury report that's of 244 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: concern or of note to you, Mick on the Cowboys side, 245 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: because I think the guys that were listed as limited, 246 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: uh yeah, it was. It was good that Antoine Woods 247 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: was listed as limited, which means he finally did something 248 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: and he was walking around without any any sleeve on 249 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: his knees. Yeah. Uh, and he seemed to be moving. 250 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: You never can tell with him because when he walked 251 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: by a straight it's like, oh no, Bryce, no, no 252 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: sleeve he goes, we'll need it. Yeah, you know, okay, 253 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: so but that's him, right, he's ready to go. They 254 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: probably have to tie him down, and that's a that's 255 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: a good thing. Uh. The new one that was limited 256 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:38,599 Speaker 1: Chris Jones got a little bit of a sore back. Uh. 257 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: But it sounds like Chris Jones would have soar back. 258 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: It's much better than the alternative, which would be more punting. Yeah, 259 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: so I wouldn't worry about that. If anything different with Tank. 260 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: He was a heel Jail said it was a heel Bruce. 261 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: So that's not good. That's not good. But that's something 262 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: you probably deal with, right pat in the shoe kind 263 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 1: of a thing. Kind of work through it and see 264 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: what you can. Again, that's probably the best thing is 265 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: to stay off it, get as much treatment. Just can't 266 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: I know which you could really treat about it. Maybe 267 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: you know, keep it in ice and keep it to 268 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: keep it, you know, trying to keep the swelling down 269 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: on it and push that blood out of there. But 270 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: this says knee shoulder, But didn't we find it's a heel. 271 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: Maybe you got a lot of stuff. Maybe he's got 272 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 1: a lot of Yeah, he's maybe he's dealing with some 273 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: few things. Speaking of heels, they'll be there, don't worry. 274 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: Amari had the heel thing in camp. On one side, 275 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,959 Speaker 1: he had the he's got the ankle that he's listed on. 276 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: On the other side, he says, it's nothing that's going 277 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: to prevent me from performing. So got a big challenge 278 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: this week too. He downplayed it. Yeah he did. And 279 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: he's a tough guy though. I think people were trying 280 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 1: to hand him an excuse and he was having He's 281 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: not going to take that, which kind of before we 282 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 1: get to break. And by the way, five two two 283 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: nine seven, when we come back from break, Brand's got 284 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: some questions, which I love. But you wrote about two 285 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 1: guys in the Packers secondary of note and this is 286 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: a young group and a young talented group, right, yeah 287 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: it is, and you know, and we need to see 288 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 1: what the Kevin King was out right, mickey, and it 289 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: was a groin. Yeah, thank you. By the way, No 290 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: Davante Adams on the offensive side. Yeah, you know, it's 291 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: funny you talk to people because he was kind of 292 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 1: working a little bit pre practice, and people were like, oh, 293 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: maybe maybe not. I'll get that status for what he thinks. 294 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of people think that he's out 295 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: and hopefully he is out again. I'm not cheerlyinging for 296 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: injury if you if you judge by how Lafour answered 297 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: the question, it was basically I read that in his 298 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: press conference he said nothing new there, referred to the 299 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: injury report, which means I'm not telling you anything. Yeah, 300 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: and usually that means I'm not telling you anything bad. Yeah, 301 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: So that that I always look at that when they 302 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: say that, Well, just he wouldn't even talk about it. Yeah, 303 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: So we'll see. Because, like I say, they've had problems 304 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: with King before he's he's he's a guy that plays 305 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: a few games and then gets nicked up and then 306 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: doesn't play a couple of games. If he's out again, 307 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: that Traymont Williams having to go at it, Josh Jackson 308 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: having to go at a safety, Will Redman will have 309 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: to go at it. So yeah, if the Cowboys, you know, 310 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: if they could find a way to take advantage of 311 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: some guys that get on that field, by all means, 312 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: please do that is staying away from Jerry Alexander, I 313 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: think is the best best plan for these guys right now. 314 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: You're a fan of his work, yeah, I am, I am. 315 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: I'm a real fan of his work. He's one of 316 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: those guys. He's one of the top cornerbacks in the league, 317 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, and he's he probably doesn't get enough credit 318 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: as he actually deserves. But when you watch him play, 319 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: he's got some special traits to him. He sure does. 320 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: And Savage as well. I mean, that's another guy stocked 321 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: up some young drafted drafting to him in the first round. 322 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: He's a safety from Maryland. He could play, he could 323 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: play in the slot as well. He's comfortable covering. You 324 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: have to be aware of him coming up and knocking 325 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: the ball loose. He's a he's one of those guys 326 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: it has a feel for how to create turnovers. Uh. 327 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins was running up the field and all of 328 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: a sudden, ball gets punched out of his hand because 329 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: of Darnell Savage coming up, and you know, it was like, oh, 330 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: you gotta be careful hitting a quarterback. Well, I mean that, 331 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: I mean you can't punch the ball out of his hands. 332 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: And that's what they were able to do, so keep 333 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: an eye on him. He Now, I will say this 334 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: about him in the Philadelphia game, there was a couple 335 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 1: of times in space where he missed some tackles. They've 336 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: had some problems with some tackling going on in Green Bay. 337 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: So if the Cowboys can kind of get some things 338 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: going in space, break some runs, get some yards after 339 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: catch or yards after contact, then I think that, you know, 340 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: that would abode well in this game for them. You 341 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: think we're at a point with Michael Gallup that having 342 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: him back just impacts everybody else on that offensive side 343 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: of the ball. I mean, is that how much he's grown. 344 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: His energy is huge. The way he plays because he's 345 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 1: such a he reminds me a little bit. And again 346 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: this is gonna sound maybe off, but remember the energy 347 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: that does Bryant brought when he caught a ball and 348 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, it's exploding up the field 349 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: and you're watching guys run and they're trying to tackle 350 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 1: him and stuff that's contagious to an offense. They see that, 351 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: you know, and all of a sudden defenders feel that 352 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: and they know this, Oh geez, we got to deal 353 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: with this all day you could. You could destroy someone's 354 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: will to compete if you just keep making plays on him. 355 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: You know. That's and that's what Michael Gallup can do 356 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 1: for you. And we talked about his ability to take 357 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: the ball inside and just explode up the field or 358 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 1: go vertically and then get the ball over the top. 359 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: So you get a guy that could beat you underneath, 360 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: intermediate and down the field, and it just brings the 361 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 1: energy and the and the juice that the offense needs. 362 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, you throw him the ball, it's 363 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: a seven yard pass, it goes for eighteen. That's that's 364 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: big time stuff for you right there. And his will 365 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: to fight for the ball too, you know. And and 366 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 1: I'm not comparing him to him, but that that was 367 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: the same thing Michael Irvin had. Michael Irvin won the 368 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: fastest receiver, but once he got the ball in his hand, 369 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: he was tough to bring. Guys didn't want to tackle Nope. 370 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 1: And they didn't want to tackle Dez nope. You know, 371 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: once he got a head of steam going no, there's like, Okay, 372 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: I'll act like i want to, but I'm not doing 373 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: I think he started because when you look at him now, 374 00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: he is so much stronger than what he was last year. Question. 375 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: It's amazing. Yeah, that first offseason always makes a difference 376 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: for these young guys. All right, let's take our first 377 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: break when we come back by the way, eight five five, 378 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,120 Speaker 1: two two nine seven is the number.

Cowboys get back to practice indoors today on 420 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: a Thursday. Brian, you got some questions for us today. Yes, 421 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,360 Speaker 1: if you could limit one thing from Aaron Rodgers game 422 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: this week, what would it be? His right arm? You 423 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 1: think the answer think throwing the football is going to be. 424 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: I would his ability to get outside the pocket. And 425 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: he thought that would take care of him when he 426 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: had a basically torn calf muscle in that playoff game 427 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: and on one lay, he still will manage to get 428 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: out there and just frustrate him with So you're saying 429 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: the mobility, yeah, he's I mean, he's good in the pocket, 430 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: don't get me right, But I think he got a 431 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: fairer chance for your secondary than him out there improvising. 432 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: He and you know this better than any of us. 433 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: But he's not Brett Farve. They've got different games. But 434 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: he does remind me of Brett in the way he can. 435 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: He's not a scrambler in us. Well, he can be, 436 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: but buying extra time in the pocket for himself or 437 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: taken off and running, it's the whole keep him in 438 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 1: the well thing. Rod, You're gonna hear Rod and Christoph 439 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: Shard say that today this week, I guarantee you I 440 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: think I could eliminate his vision. I would say, please 441 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: take away his vision, his ability to see the way 442 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: he does down the field. You guys talked about hit 443 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: the mobility party, but he sees everything developing down the field. 444 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: And he's so good at just going to the room 445 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: when you make a mistake. He finds the mistake out there. 446 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: You know. So that's well, yeah, it's a good point 447 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: because I was talking with Jeff Heath about it, and 448 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: you know, he's had to play against him so many times, 449 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: and he said, it's really weird. He said, but because 450 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: you when you look at him, his eyes are down 451 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: like he's looking where he's gonna move, he said, But 452 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: for some reason, with his eyes down, he still sees 453 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: down the field right. It's he said, it's very deceptive 454 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 1: because he's always looking for a crease, and then all 455 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:37,959 Speaker 1: of a sudden he's up and he finds a guy 456 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: down field. That's a lot of trust in your receivers. 457 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 1: Then you know where they're going to be. That's exactly, 458 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: and he's got some I'll get to that question here 459 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: in a little bit. My next question few boys is 460 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: do you help Cam flimming off the jump or do 461 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: you see how it goes to start off the jump, 462 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: just so there's not a breakdown early for your offense. Yeah, 463 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,159 Speaker 1: if you want. I I just think that you're going 464 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:02,959 Speaker 1: to see a tight end over there quite a bit. 465 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 1: Normally a lot of times you see the tight end 466 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,880 Speaker 1: tight to the right side. That's the strong side to run. 467 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: But I think in passing situations or if you want 468 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: to pass, I think you just need to have some 469 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,439 Speaker 1: protection over there. And it's not like the guy's got 470 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 1: to stay there and double team all the time. Sure, 471 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: just get in the way, Nicol, run over ye, get 472 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: to the ball. Yeah. It's like a lot of times 473 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: last year when they played Washington in that first game, 474 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: the tight end was kind of behind covering. Yeah, it 475 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: was kind of behind him all you know, like I 476 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 1: kept saying, in his hip pocket, it went right behind him, 477 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 1: but off to the side. And then Fleming knows that 478 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: he got to protect the inside. He's got to help 479 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: to the outside or you know a lot of times 480 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: they were you know, people don't like that too tight 481 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: end formation, but you know it's not a bad thing 482 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: on that side. Robert, I agree, it's a formula that's 483 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 1: worked for him. They got two wins, I believe with 484 00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: him in the starting lineup last year, so I would 485 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: I would stick with that. But I mean, I'm a 486 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: feeling they're gonna let him go and see what happens. 487 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: He's got to be on his own. Some you can't 488 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: every time. I'm not saying no, no, he's not saying 489 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 1: every time. I know what you got to say. In 490 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: the majority of them. Yeah, yeah, So like from like 491 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 1: the third snap, if they're gonna throw the ball, put 492 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: Mickey's tied in in a wing position over there and 493 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,239 Speaker 1: try and kind of set a little tone, or put 494 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: the running back over there and send him out into 495 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: the formation to the left side. But you're saying see 496 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: how he does on the I think I think that 497 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna I like what you guys are saying, but 498 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: I also have a feeling they're gonna just let him 499 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 1: go and see how it goes. Well, God bless him. 500 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: You have more confidence than I. Yeah, you'll be sitting 501 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: the press box losing your mind on that one. You're ready, 502 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: I'll text shift, Yeah, thanks, I'll watch the game. Start 503 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 1: a chart, Yeah, exactly. Okay, how do we think kill them? 504 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: Moore is going to travel this week by ground or 505 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: through the air. M I hope to God by the ground. 506 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: Why is that Philadelphia one hundred and seventy six yards rushing, 507 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,479 Speaker 1: Den one hundred and forty nine yards rushing, Minnesota one 508 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety eight yard hope. But we said the 509 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: Saints couldn't stop the run, right, Well, all I know, 510 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: there's three in a row. They they they averaged one 511 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: hundred Those three teams average one hundred and seventy four 512 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: yards a game, one hundred and seventy four five touchdowns. 513 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: I'm actually with Mick because when that way, he'll get 514 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: to see camp file unlock the right. Yeah. I like 515 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: I like that because Zeke hasn't had many of those 516 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: games he does, they try to get him involved early 517 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 1: and get set that tone, get it reset, right. I 518 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 1: think that's gonna happen. But I also think there's merit 519 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: to especially with gallop back. You can spread these guys 520 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 1: out and try to attack them that way if King 521 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: doesn't play, and maybe the opportunities potentially Yeah, well if 522 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 1: they play their defense the way they played against Philadelphia 523 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: with those wide gaps. Yeah, and and everybody real why 524 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: all you gotta do is block one guy and he's 525 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: through the whole Because it's wrong about that. Back is 526 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 1: not wrong about that. That's all they're talking about right 527 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: now too, about how they've got to tighten up on 528 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: their assignments defensively, that they left too many big gaps. 529 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: I mean Delvin Cook had a seventy five yard running Yeah, 530 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 1: sure it did. I mean questions you got left for us? 531 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 1: Go ahead, and and I'll you have a call you 532 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: want to get.

Get some 545 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: hands in the face and try to affect him that 546 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: way in the middle of the pocket. Absolutely, yeah, and 547 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: I think that Crawford's not going to play. Yeah, so 548 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: we've kind of talked about that a little bit, so 549 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 1: you know, maybe next week we'll see how it goes. 550 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: He was out working on the field yesterday, so it 551 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: sound encouraging from Jason Garret yesterday the least. Maybe he's 552 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: making progress making But it's it's that Rasidas. It's what 553 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 1: It's just it and it's in the other hip. It's 554 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: not the one that's been repaired. So yeah, it's something 555 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 1: he's going to have to deal with. You know, here 556 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 1: we are, We're gonna be in week five and you know, 557 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: maybe in week six, or seven. We're gonna see him 558 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 1: out on the field, and then you're gonna have a 559 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: buy and probably figure out what you need to do 560 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: from there.

All right, Brian, 627 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: what you got? Need one Cowboy defender to step up? 628 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: Who do you got more so than so far? Yeah? 629 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: You need one for this game? You need one Cowboy 630 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: defender to step up? Who you got, boy? I've seen 631 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 1: signs of it, and now if I can get it 632 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: more on a consistent basis, If I can get MALIEK. 633 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: Collins to play a couple plays at this last game 634 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: and make Aaron Rodgers comfortable coming up the middle, yeah, boy, 635 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 1: I think that would be huge for what they have 636 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 1: going on the outside. With the two as rushers. Yeah, 637 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 1: he's still my answer. My answer because that middle rush 638 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: is really more problematic for quarterbacks than even the outside absolutely, yeah, 639 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: because they can survive the outside rush. It's that stuff 640 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: up in their face that it gives them problems, right, 641 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: and then you're you're falling right into the trap of 642 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: Robert Quinnon to Marcus Lawrence coming off the edges. So 643 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: I'll say I'll say Christian Covington at nose tackle providing 644 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 1: a pass rush as well, assuming well, maybe Antoine gets back, 645 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: but it looks like it will probably be Covington at 646 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: least for some snaps. I know they might be down 647 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: receivers or receiver, but man, I just don't need a 648 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: Woozier to get the ball over the top of him, 649 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: you know when they go up and you know, Byron 650 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 1: Jones I think has that ability to play the ball 651 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: above him better with a Woozier. He's close, We've seen 652 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: him finish a couple of times. But it kind of 653 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: these tall receivers. I've started thinking about that Dolphins game, 654 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: you know, with that guy with Parker reaching up and 655 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: him struggling with that, and the pass interferences and all 656 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 1: that so I would say, I would say that a 657 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: Woozier would be my guy. Did I need to? I 658 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: need him to play well in this game, especially with 659 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: these two tall, rangy receivers that they have on their team. Okay, 660 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: other than the turnovers? What stat are you keeping your 661 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: eye on in this game for key to victory other 662 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: than the turnover? Other than the turnovers? What stats are 663 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 1: you keeping an eye on during this game? I'll go 664 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: with the one I had yesterday. Can Green Bay be 665 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: productive in the red zone because Rogers is going to 666 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: move the ball and get them in position? But how 667 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: does their running game fair against the Dallas defense or 668 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: can they make them one dimensional particularly in the red zone. 669 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 1: I think the stat I had was they had twenty 670 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: two red zone plays against the Eagles and through at 671 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: nineteen times. That's not exactly balanced. Can they get them 672 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: out of that as well? The Dallas defense in this 673 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: game sacks ah. I was gonna say pressures, But pressures 674 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 1: mean that Aaron Rodgers gets off as Mark uh Andy 675 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 1: skill can throw the ball, he needs to be on 676 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: the ground. Harriet. Does time of possession do anything for 677 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 1: anybody being you're playing Rodgers? Or does that matter to 678 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 1: try to keep him off the field. That is that 679 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 1: is that something? And that was a question I had. 680 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: That was another question of are we what are we 681 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: overthinking in this one game? Well, I don't am I 682 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: overthinking keeping him off the field a little bit because 683 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,280 Speaker 1: in my opinion, because I don't look at this offense 684 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 1: like the Bridgewater Saints offense where we've got to play 685 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 1: keep away and we've got to just this. This can 686 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 1: be an explosive offense. Score with thirty seconds, whether you 687 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: keep the ball nine minutes or not, just get points 688 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 1: however you can. Now I realized the last two times 689 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,439 Speaker 1: they've lost to him, they left basically too much time 690 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: on the clock. So I get you there, but you know, 691 00:34:58,360 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: give me, give me a lead in the second half 692 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: and then start pounding away at Zeke. That's that's like 693 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: old school Cowboys, old school Cowboy, old school Super Bowl 694 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:10,439 Speaker 1: Mickey Spagnola Cowboys, Right yeah. But and it's a different team, right, Sure, 695 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 1: But the Saints had the ball for thirty six minutes. 696 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: They scored twelve points, right So again, but they were 697 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 1: they were, they had long possessions. Yeah, and that's on you, right, 698 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,800 Speaker 1: um so, but just because you get them out of 699 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: there doesn't mean the offense is going to hold on 700 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 1: to the ball. It doesn't even it out unless you 701 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 1: drive the ball yourself. So I'll take thirty sixty minutes 702 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 1: of possession and only twelve points and take my chance 703 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: that I can win. Yeah. Yeah, that's the day of 704 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,959 Speaker 1: the week. So are you are you playing keep away 705 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: in this game? Are you just trying to score? No? Well, 706 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: I want points, but he wants points. But he's gonna 707 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: run the ball, yeah, which it's just hard to do. 708 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 1: But I like what he's saying about. I'm I'm a 709 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: guy that likes to be the physical aspect of the game. 710 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: I believe in that. I think the Cowboys will do 711 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: a better job of blocking this front too. But but 712 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 1: I also understand though then when they throw the ball, 713 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 1: they have good success doing that. They have the ability to. 714 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 1: Now now you're compromised at left tackle. You know, we're 715 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 1: compromised the left tackle there, So yeah, I'm kind of 716 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,399 Speaker 1: That's why I was asking you about the Kellen Moore 717 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: Does he traveled by land or by air? Well? Do 718 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 1: you think? And Travis Frederick was asked about this yesterday, 719 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,879 Speaker 1: do you expect copycat from defenses and he said absolutely. 720 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: Do you think other teams are going to try this 721 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: clog and cover thing and try to get away too? Yeah, 722 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:32,800 Speaker 1: I mean, but you got to have they But you 723 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 1: gotta be able to have the front too, that's what 724 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:36,439 Speaker 1: at the front. Yeah, you have to have the front 725 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 1: to do it. And you know, like you say, the 726 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 1: Saints play a four man line, so you know, and 727 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 1: they they'd had some problems, they'd had some problems against 728 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 1: the run. Now let's see if the Packers have the same. Now, 729 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 1: I remember when the Packers are coming in there, mickey 730 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: every time. Yesterday, the Packers are coming here with the 731 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 1: number one ranked run defense in the in the league 732 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 1: one time and got slaughtered on it. So here there 733 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: are you know, on the other end of that, I'll 734 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: see you if they if they stopped the Cowboys running 735 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 1: the ball, then we need to do a deep dive 736 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 1: in on what's going on with the Cowboys running game. Yeah, 737 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 1: but I think we're banking on better success from this 738 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 1: group to Pollard too, by the way, two offensive snaps 739 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: last week. Yeah, I think more Tony Pollard would be good. 740 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 1: I'm with you. You don't want too much Aaron Rodgers 741 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: right now. They need to get They need to get 742 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 1: some juice going back in their passing game, and I 743 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: realized a lot of it was part of the Saints 744 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 1: game plan to try to keep everything in front of them. 745 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: They were just missing those chunk plays though in that game. 746 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: I mean I looked it up. Sixteen chunk plays in 747 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: the first three games and they all resulted on scoring 748 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: drives except for one. They've they've been feasting off those. 749 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,839 Speaker 1: They need to get back to them. Yeah, Packers are 750 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: twenty six against the run. Yeah. So I asked the 751 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 1: question about this wide gap front. Yeah, I said, does 752 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: that what they do all the time or was that 753 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: just against Philly? Do you think that's going to happen 754 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,439 Speaker 1: to you? And the answer was, there's no way they're 755 00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: gonna They're gonna squeeze it down to have to there 756 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:03,360 Speaker 1: not going to leave those gaps between the three defensive 757 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: linemen up front, and there was a term for it, 758 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 1: but squeezing it down and clogging it a little bit 759 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: more inside. So maybe you get an opportunity to get 760 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 1: the ball on the edge, Yeah, I hope. So I 761 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: was hoping that last week with Pollard and Zeke both 762 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: last question today, boys, where we continue to see Jason 763 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 1: Garrett gamble on fourth down. Well, it's not a gamble, 764 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 1: it's it's Yeah, I think when you see how the 765 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 1: game was going, Yeah, I think it's a calculator risk 766 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,359 Speaker 1: when you go for it on your own forty three. Yeah, 767 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: but you got Ezekiel Elliott, you got this offensive line, 768 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 1: you needed one yard, you got, you got it, you 769 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: got it right, and you had to look at how 770 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 1: the game was going. Sure, you needed to keep possessions 771 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 1: because you needed somehow some way to score a point. Right, 772 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 1: So to me, you gotta look at you know. And 773 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 1: I'd listened to how Bill Belichick answered the question the 774 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: other day when everybody jumped on him about analytics, and 775 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 1: he basically said, I watched the game and I have 776 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 1: to have a feel for how it's going, how my 777 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 1: team is performing, what the other team is, what's the 778 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,800 Speaker 1: situation in the game. I just can't have a number. 779 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 1: Tell me, Okay, on fourth down, you'll make it sixty 780 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,399 Speaker 1: percent of the time if it's two yards or less. Right. Also, 781 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 1: your team you got and you got to know the 782 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,800 Speaker 1: situation of the game. And if you need a possession 783 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: to continue and you think it's worth it, then go 784 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 1: for it, especially if you're you know, somewhere on the 785 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 1: other side of your own forty yard line. Yeah, I don't. 786 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,279 Speaker 1: I don't think he's lost any faith in Zeke and 787 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: the old so I don't think so. Yeah, I hope 788 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 1: he does. I like to, you know, I like when 789 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 1: he does that. I you know what, And I've been 790 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: critical of him in the past, but I mean I'm 791 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 1: okay with him knowing his team and if he needs 792 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 1: to go and get an extra keep a drive, going 793 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 1: to maybe get points. Yeah. Absolutely. Now if it's fourth 794 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: and one at your own twenty, it's a different story. 795 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,320 Speaker 1: Belichick's done that before. Yeah, and he has. Yeah, but 796 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 1: you gotta know your team, got on your team, because 797 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 1: otherwise you're saying, Okay, I'm willing to give up three points. Yeah. Absolutely. 798 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: How we're doing, guys, Well, we're almost done, coach. We've 799 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:12,280 Speaker 1: got two minutes left. Good stuff, Brian, thank you, good answer. 800 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 1: With two minutes left. Rob in Vegas, you got the 801 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: final word quickly on talking Cowboys today. You know you 802 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 1: guys we're talking about should we run a pass? I 803 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 1: think we should run, but not with Zeke. I think 804 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 1: Dak is the one that needs to run off. Okay, 805 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,399 Speaker 1: when he when he runs for over twenty five yards, 806 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,239 Speaker 1: they're twelve and four. And when he and when he 807 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:35,359 Speaker 1: goes for over forty, he's undefeated. I mean, and you're 808 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,279 Speaker 1: telling me these guys are gonna play why they're going 809 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 1: to crash down? To me, he gets run option all 810 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: over it. They should have did it on those third 811 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,399 Speaker 1: and two plays in New Orleans. I think he's made 812 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 1: for that. You never see him lose yardage when he 813 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 1: runs that play. He may not run for ten, but 814 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,879 Speaker 1: he's such a big body guy. And to me, that's 815 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: what gets this offense really going and makes it dangerous. 816 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 1: It gets him fired up, the offense fired up, and 817 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 1: it demoralizes the defense. And I just think that's what 818 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: this team needs to do, is it true? Okay, much 819 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 1: throwing a boat down the field. Yeah, but he can't. 820 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 1: Can't forget about using and delay all fair, Rob appreciate. 821 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna send that message down the hallway. Yes, Mickey 822 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: and Mickey will he needs he needs twenty five yards 823 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 1: and they win. I was thinking forty. There's the magic 824 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 1: number right there. Yeah, twenty five yards there, twelve and four? 825 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:30,439 Speaker 1: Is that is that what you think? That's what he said. 826 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,839 Speaker 1: So you know what good stuff. I thinks that Rob 827 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 1: maybe three or four in that first possession. Just let 828 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 1: him run and get in twenty five and then call 829 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: to win. It's a win. Okay. Well that's we'll talk 830 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 1: to Mickey and that's our magic number for the day, 831 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:44,879 Speaker 1: and that's talking Cowboys for today. We'll catch you guys 832 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 1: back on Friday. The break is next. This has been 833 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 1: a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas 834 00:41:51,840 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys Football Club. Hmm
