I'm just I can't wait for stupid. 0:03:30.720 --> 0:03:35.160 Man, we're talking about playing basketball three three years one 0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:38.800 eighty six. I saw that from Anto.

He's expressed checkout. Man. 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.520 All right, So did y'all have an opportunity to watch 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:01.760 in in this NFL football over the weekend. 0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:04.279 It was for me, it was stress free. 0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:07.680 I got to look at everybody else's faults and I 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:08.920 saw a bunch of them. Man. 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:11.839 But I want to know about y'all, man, it was some. 0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:15.919 Surprises on the weekend, d mac. Who is your surprises 0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:16.760 of the weekend? 0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:19.600 Man? I was surprised Detroit got done like that. They 0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:20.480 got dirty. 0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:28.480 So like like you you already know, you already know 0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:41.200 you today they get dirty, they got go ahead, focus up, man, Baltimore, 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:43.080 did Detroit dirty? 0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:43.760 Okay? 0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:47.080 They came out and I like, they just look like 0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:48.800 a totally different team. You have been waiting to see 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:52.000 Lamar Jackson with O'Dell and Flyt like all these all 0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:54.720 these weapons that he had, and you're like, okay, monk 0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:56.160 and said he was going to pass the ball a 0:05:56.200 --> 0:05:57.320 little bit more, spread it out. 0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:58.200 We hadn't seen it. 0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:00.400 And then they came out against Detroit and was like, 0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:04.120 we finish, show y'all how we play. And from the 0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:05.640 beginning of the game to the end of the game, 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:09.560 they literally let Detroit have everything they wanted. And prior 0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:12.800 to that, I wasn't here and we all probably still 0:06:12.839 --> 0:06:15.560 so that Detroit was one of the top teams in 0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:18.400 the NFL, absolutely, and I still believe they are. But 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:20.279 to see that Baltimore Ravens go out there and do 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:22.479 them like that, that was that was super impressive. 0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:26.560 Come on, who saw who was definitely one of the 0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:27.239 bigger ones. 0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:30.680 But I'm gonna go with last night with Kirk Cousins 0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:33.760 out there dealing against San Francisco. I mean, this is 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:36.400 a defense who we all saw it. You know, we 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:38.320 all saw the game when they played the Cowboys a 0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:41.080 couple weeks ago, and it looked very formidable. I mean 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.839 we thought and still rightfully so I still say they're 0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:46.520 a top defense. But man, Kirk Cousins was out there 0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:49.839 dealing without Justin Jefferson out there. I mean he he 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:52.440 had two random backs, and not random, but Madison and 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:56.360 Acres back there, who've been up and down, left and right. Addison, 0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:58.800 the young rookie, came out of nowhere playing ball. And 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:01.360 usually when you look at Kirk Cousins, he's the one 0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:04.320 that's always kind of flopping on primetime games, whether it's 0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:07.279 Sunday night, Thursday night, Monday night, he's usually flopping out there. 0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.600 But I mean Kevin O'Connor and them boys had a 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:12.720 great game plan and they I mean relatively so. I mean, 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:14.760 if you look at the game, it was it wasn't 0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:16.320 close until towards the very end. 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:16.520 Like that. 0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:19.000 I feel like, you know, Minnesota had that game the 0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:21.280 entire time. So that was a big time surprise for me. 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:23.240 You know, those are those are the two games. And 0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:24.960 I'm glad you went with Detroit because that was what 0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:27.120 I was gonna go with. I was shocked to see 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:30.160 Lamar Jackson. Lamar Jackson did them boys like it was 0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:31.320 like crap shot year. 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:37.480 You know, It's like after the fact, they was dismantling 0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:40.640 and taking that team apart. And I got to say, 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:42.840 I was shocked at the you know, the passing game 0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:45.240 from Lamar Jackson too. We know about his legs, but 0:07:45.280 --> 0:07:47.760 the arm came with it and this new offense that 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:50.600 he's in. Man, if this is the if this is 0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:53.600 what we're peeking towards for Lamar Jackson, this is a 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:55.680 dangerous Baltimore team. Now. I don't want to be a 0:07:55.680 --> 0:07:59.240 part of the overreact crowd. I don't want to do it, 0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:01.200 but but I think based off of what we were 0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:05.320 talking about earlier, Detroit defensively and offensively were that surprise 0:08:05.400 --> 0:08:08.880 team that you felt like Campbell had turned it around 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:10.640 and power rankings. 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:13.120 Even though we talk about this in the NFL, that was. 0:08:13.040 --> 0:08:14.920 One of your top five teams in the NFC, no 0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:16.720 matter how you looked at it, you still and maybe 0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:19.040 still look at Detroit that way. 0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:22.920 But I'm with you, dog, Wow. 0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:25.240 That's because that's because it makes you feel better as 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:35.200 a Cowboys. Oh that's the guys, that's what y'all talking about. 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:41.400 They went out there and lost too straight. Yeah, boys, 0:08:41.679 --> 0:08:44.160 Hype and Pard he came up in what do you 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:44.560 do to us? 0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:46.360 He did like And. 0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:48.600 That's the NFL though, right, So it's like it's it's 0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:50.400 week by week. Every week we come here and do 0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:53.240 the same thing. How San Francisco ended up losing two 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:55.360 games in a row last week, We kind of gave 0:08:55.400 --> 0:08:57.760 put an asterisk by because they lost c MC. You 0:08:57.880 --> 0:09:00.760 lose Debo Trent Williams. This week, it's just Debon and 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:02.800 true Wings. But you gotta see him. See, you should 0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:06.360 be able to beat they're missing justin Jefferson. You should 0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:08.160 be able to beat them, all right, And they came 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:10.400 out there and played the heck of a defensive game. 0:09:11.840 --> 0:09:15.760 Is it is it? Flores Florence is over there when 0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:16.680 I think he. 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:19.760 Drew up some masterful for them dudes. CMC still went 0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:22.480 off now, he still did his thing. But yeah, like 0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:24.880 it was surprising. But I know why you feel better 0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:26.320 about it. I know why you feel better. 0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:30.000 Are you more surprised at the at the you know, 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:31.839 the offense being you know what it was turning the 0:09:31.840 --> 0:09:35.440 football over or that defense that's I mean, they, you know, 0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:37.439 top defense in the league up to this point. 0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:39.640 I think it's kind of like diced up, you know. 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:41.360 I think it's a little bit of both. You guys, know, 0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:42.880 when you get to this point in the season and 0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:45.240 injuries are starting to affect teams, you don't expect for 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:47.040 them to look like they did when they when they're 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:48.640 at full strength. I mean, what a difference of Trent 0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:50.959 Williams make on your offensive line, all right? What a 0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:53.679 difference of Deebo Samuel's making in your passing game? No 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:55.440 matter where he is in his career right now, you 0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:58.400 still have to count for where Debo is. I think 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:01.480 on the on the other side, for the defense, that 0:10:01.600 --> 0:10:03.800 linebackers are still the true But there were just some 0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:07.080 holes that I didn't think that Kirk Cousins could find 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:09.160 and they had to look. There was some lucky breaks though, 0:10:09.400 --> 0:10:11.240 I mean some of those balls. Come on, yeah, he 0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:17.600 should have two picks, you know. I mean, it happens. 0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:18.720 It happens. 0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:20.880 But still when you look at the game, it was like, 0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:22.920 and you break it down, you're just saying to yourself, like, 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:24.920 come on, man, this is this is one of those 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:28.280 teams that after they beat us, everybody saying can anybody 0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:31.200 beat them? You know, it's it's pretty the number one 0:10:31.320 --> 0:10:33.920 quarterback in the league, and it doesn't make me feel 0:10:33.920 --> 0:10:36.280 good to see them lose, but it does say, dang, 0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:40.880 you know, where was all this with y'alla? You said, 0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:42.560 held on, we got stomped by them, and they went 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:47.200 out there lost too straight to some teams that quarterback 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:52.720 Cleveland and you lose to Minnesota and stumped us stomp 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:55.319 stump us out. So it just depends on how you 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:56.719 want to look at I would say this about Kirk 0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:59.360 Cousins because we do like primetime games every once in 0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:01.439 a while to do but no matter what year in 0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:03.640 the year, he got the stats, he's gonna put all right, 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:08.040 So they're gonna be competitive in the game, especially offensively, 0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:10.120 so to me, it was no surprise that he still 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:11.840 went out there and they put up numbers against him, 0:11:11.840 --> 0:11:13.600 which was what it was. It ain't like they went 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:15.360 out there and put up thirty plus on them. But 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:17.360 he was still doing this thing. So shout out to 0:11:17.400 --> 0:11:20.040 Kirk Cousins. But we just want to remember that Kirk 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:22.640 Cousins has always been able to put up big, top numbers. 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.240 Prime Time Kurt, and we got Prime Time Kurt, and 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:27.880 he showed us why he Prime Time Kurt. But now 0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:30.800 that you see you've seen the forty nine ers lose, 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:35.920 you've seen the Philadelphia Eagles look vulnerable in their moments. 0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:38.480 Let's get them the same treatment you just gave San 0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:41.040 Francisco because they came out and did what to Miami. 0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:46.240 So they look off that they look off the week before. Okay, 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:48.040 and they come back and this is the same Miami. 0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:50.719 They put up seventy on Denver with Tyreek Hill out 0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:52.480 there and Waddle and Tua. 0:11:52.720 --> 0:11:53.240 All right, the. 0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:56.079 Offensive line was a little shaky's and that's unfortunately when 0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:58.120 you go against a team like Philly. But get them 0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:01.320 to get them the same, Tam, here's my opportunity to 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:04.640 allow you to walk the red carpet with your other boys. No, No, 0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:12.480 I'm just I'm just coming to the microphone. Hey, we're 0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:16.520 gonna say, okay, weekend, week out whatever, because last week 0:12:16.559 --> 0:12:18.600 we were like, okay, Philly lost, and we all sat 0:12:18.640 --> 0:12:21.840 there and said, man, that's you know, every given something 0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:23.040 that you can get out there and lose it. And 0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:24.439 we came back here today it was like, did you 0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:26.959 see San Fran went out there look bad? 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:29.960 We circled the game most people circle that game between 0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:32.920 Miami and Philadelphia and was like, Okay, this is gonna 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.880 be one of them games where we're gonna find out 0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:38.400 who is who? And then you Washington and you found 0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:39.000 out who was who. 0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:41.720 And I found out from Miami that they obviously, just 0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:44.400 like we saw from San Francisco, were missing players. Got 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:46.560 to get a lot, Yeah, they were missing players. But 0:12:46.679 --> 0:12:50.960 also Tarik Hill, I mean he dropped the wide open touchdown. 0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:54.720 I thought McDaniel like he coached against himself. That we've 0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:58.520 been looking at Miami and where was that running games? 0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:00.360 Non existent? You know a lot of the things that 0:13:00.360 --> 0:13:02.120 we see from that they completely gave up. 0:13:02.280 --> 0:13:05.160 But I'm talking about the NFC power rankers as we 0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:08.079 see it right now after what happened with the forty 0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:10.720 nine ers and what you're seeing with Philadelphia. Where do 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:12.600 you look at the NFC and how do you rank 0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:16.160 these teams right now? The same I had Philly as 0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:18.640 number one, San Francisco number two, Detroit number three, of 0:13:18.720 --> 0:13:21.840 us number four stopped I'll just stopped right there. But 0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:23.800 that's what I still have it there with us being 0:13:23.840 --> 0:13:25.839 off last week, just because we saw what Philly did, 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:28.960 they proved it. They are number one team until we 0:13:29.160 --> 0:13:31.480 are able to beat San Francisco or they are like 0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:33.640 out of the playoff race. They're going to be ahead 0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:36.040 of us because it's been three years and the last 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:39.000 time we played them they embarrassed us, So they're gonna 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:41.120 be ahead of us. And I think Detroit they still 0:13:41.120 --> 0:13:45.040 got the biggest win of the season against against Kansas City, 0:13:45.200 --> 0:13:47.760 and they went out there against the Lamar Jackson led team, 0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:51.360 where any given day, Lamar Jackson and that squad can't 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:52.960 do that to just about any team in the league 0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:54.520 if they clicking of all cylinders like that. 0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:56.760 So I'm just leaving where it is. They got that 0:13:56.800 --> 0:14:01.480 same thirty eighty six treatment that beat the NFC. 0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:03.280 I kind of got a similar I got Philly up 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:05.600 at the top. And then I'm saying there's a little gap. 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:08.000 I'm not you know, I'm saying there's Philly, and then 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:11.800 there's there's a little respectable gap between the forty nine ers. 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:12.280 Who's next? 0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:14.360 I got Detroit in there, and then I'm kind of 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:17.360 Cowboys slash Seattle because I like what I'm seeing out 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:19.400 there out of the West. I mean, you know, Geno Smith, 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:22.120 he's more consistent. Last year, he showed he can do it. 0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:24.160 This year he's backing it up. So I feel like 0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:25.640 they got a little they got something cooking up there 0:14:25.640 --> 0:14:27.520 in the West. So I'm putting Cowboys in Seattle kind 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:29.920 of that slash for But to me, when you look 0:14:29.920 --> 0:14:33.480 at it Eagles, even in that loss where he turned 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:36.080 the ball over, I think three times, they still had 0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:37.840 opportunity to win the game. 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:39.920 And we've seen it all year long. Philly just ain't 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:40.480 really clicking. 0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:42.560 Everybody's kind of like, you know, don't I don't see 0:14:42.600 --> 0:14:45.000 the same Jalen Hurds, you know, the coordinators not being there. 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:47.720 I think it's huge, but there's still six and one. 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:50.800 Even all through all of that, we still, in my opinion, 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:53.840 at least believe we haven't seen the best Philadelphia team, 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:55.680 so I gotta put them up there. And then when 0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:57.840 you look at the forty nine ers, yes, they stopped 0:14:57.880 --> 0:14:59.720 the month hole in the Dallas Cowboys. You know a 0:14:59.720 --> 0:15:03.600 couple weeks back, but two back to back losses against Yes, 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:06.600 Cleveland has a great defense, but that quarterback was p J. 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:09.200 Walker out there and he was able to orchestrate drives 0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:11.680 and getting points on that forty nine ers defense. Then 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:13.320 you fast forward to last or you know a couple 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:17.080 of last night. Last night KRK Cousins with j J. 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:19.520 Jeto was out there dealing. I mean, the man threw 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:22.320 a forty sometimes and didn't get received, no sacks. There 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:24.440 was no pressure on that man. And we talked about Bosa, 0:15:24.720 --> 0:15:25.720 you know all those guys. 0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:28.520 What happened to them? What happened? What happened to those boys? 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:30.560 So granted there was a couple of breaks, but like 0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:32.760 we say, you know, things happened in the league. So 0:15:32.800 --> 0:15:35.160 to me, that's a big gap, not a big guy. 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:37.240 Media, what about it? What about a. 0:15:37.120 --> 0:15:41.520 Healthy, healthy San Francisco forty nine deebo and you got debo, 0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:45.000 you got Trent Remember against Cleveland, they were missing the 0:15:45.160 --> 0:15:48.520 debo Trent in CMC for for a little part of 0:15:48.560 --> 0:15:52.080 that game. So healthy, uh forty nine ers to me, 0:15:52.360 --> 0:15:53.960 I don't know. I still got to see them, and 0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:55.800 I gotta see it. I gotta see them in Philly. 0:15:55.880 --> 0:16:01.040 I think the thing about Philly is about my other boys. 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:03.440 This is what I said about Philly and why I 0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:06.000 had them number one when I was on the break 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:11.640 with Derrk and Nick. Philly is a team that no 0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:14.640 matter what, they can find a way to win. And 0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:18.800 that's offensively, defensively, or on special teams, no matter what's 0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:23.400 not clicking. And that's the difference between US San friand Philly. 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:25.880 Is Okay, Philly, go out there, Jalen Hurts, don't look right, 0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:29.440 don't worry, Carter and Slay and they're gonna figure out 0:16:29.440 --> 0:16:30.120 a way to get it done. 0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:31.760 Oh wait, the defense not showing up. 0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:35.280 Don't worry Jalen Hurts and Swift and aj they gonna 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:36.840 find a way to get it. Wait, we need something 0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:39.480 from special like, no matter what is not going right 0:16:39.520 --> 0:16:41.760 for them, they still have an opportunity to win the game. 0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:43.720 But you look at a team like US where you say, okay, 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:46.680 defense ain't they ain't stopping nobody. Right then, you like 0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:48.760 you could just close your eyes and if somebody tell 0:16:48.800 --> 0:16:51.240 you defense not stopping nobody, you can just alreadially assume 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:53.680 you're probably gonna lose that game, right, And I think 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:56.040 that's the difference between Philly and then most of the 0:16:56.040 --> 0:16:57.680 other teams in the left. You know, I'm with you. 0:16:57.880 --> 0:17:00.000 I think you know Philadelphia. I'm still gonna put them 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:03.200 at number one. Win ugly, just win, that's all it matters. 0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:07.520 And the gap they've increased that when I've seen what 0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:09.680 you just said forty nine is the way that they 0:17:09.720 --> 0:17:11.919 lost the two teams that they lost too. Regardless of hell, 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:15.040 no one's giving us any excuses for losing, Trayvon Diggs, 0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:17.800 do nobody care? You know they Hey, y'all lost two 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:20.760 to the teams y'all lost to, and y'all gonna be 0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:23.800 ranked in and around that fourth fifth spot no matter what. 0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:26.680 Like what you said about Seattle, that's a sneaky good 0:17:26.680 --> 0:17:28.600 team that a lot of people are not talking about. 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:30.720 And oh, by the way, they got a pretty damn 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:33.880 good defense. They're flying right now, they really do. They 0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:36.880 got a pretty good and we see them too. We're 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:43.320 gonna see all them, see them too, which is crazy 0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:44.879 to me, man, which is crazy to me. 0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:46.639 And on top of that, when we talk. 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:50.159 About when we talk about Philadelphia, and you know, it 0:17:50.440 --> 0:17:52.400 drives me crazy. 0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:58.160 Been talking about them more and more? Is it? List 0:17:57.600 --> 0:17:59.720 you started on right here I'm talking about you didn't 0:17:59.720 --> 0:18:02.120 even mentioned Philly. You said he was mad. 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:06.600 It's not here like man, Go ahead, man, I'm gonna listen. 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:11.600 That's what I'm gonna dost. The dude, Howie Roseman right 0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:14.080 now is dealing. And I don't care how you look 0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:16.080 at it. If you admire the NFL where you just 0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:18.520 like good football, you see what he did. Kevin Bayer, 0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:22.480 the guy was from Tennessee. I know y'all, y'all would 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:25.160 know what safety if we break up for safety. Came 0:18:25.200 --> 0:18:27.000 in to the league of twenty sixteen. I believe he 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:30.280 has something like twenty seven interceptions for his career. Two 0:18:30.320 --> 0:18:33.760 time All Pro, two time Pro Bowler. Dude is like that. 0:18:33.880 --> 0:18:37.359 And somehow the Philadelphia Eagles have found a way to 0:18:37.560 --> 0:18:43.320 add more pieces to a already really good roster. Now, guys, 0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:46.400 you're sitting here in the front office, put on your 0:18:46.400 --> 0:18:47.679 Will McLay hat for me. 0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:50.000 Please, are you looking at this? 0:18:50.040 --> 0:18:52.360 Come on, d Mac, you looking at this roster right 0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:57.120 now as the trade deadline approaches October thirty first, at 0:18:57.359 --> 0:18:58.680 three pm. 0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:02.280 Central Standard time, are you not making the move? Danny? 0:19:03.119 --> 0:19:04.840 Is your team? You tell me, give it to me 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:05.640 one hundred man. 0:19:05.680 --> 0:19:10.400 Look, if there is a interior defensive lineman out there 0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:12.800 that is that is is one of those guys where 0:19:12.800 --> 0:19:16.440 you're like, he's gonna make a difference, yes, sir, call linebacker, 0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:20.000 yes sir. Other than that, nah, I'm okay, I'm okay, linebacker, 0:19:20.119 --> 0:19:23.280 defensive lineman. I think if you get one of those 0:19:23.320 --> 0:19:26.440 difference makers, bro playing the three technique on the one technique, Bro, 0:19:26.520 --> 0:19:29.560 it will change this defense as good as it already is. 0:19:29.880 --> 0:19:33.760 It will change this defense. You've seen it in Philly. 0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:36.399 You've seen it. It's hard to find those type of guys. 0:19:36.440 --> 0:19:39.120 But if you're able to, hey, when somebody calls and say, hey, man, listen, 0:19:39.160 --> 0:19:42.280 we rebuilding and we just sorry. 0:19:42.280 --> 0:19:47.399 Sorry, I don't even know who that guy is. We 0:19:47.440 --> 0:19:48.360 talked about another show. 0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:51.280 It's like, it's not that many of those those difference 0:19:51.320 --> 0:19:53.960 makers in the interior defensive lineman. 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:55.479 So I don't know who that guy would be. 0:19:55.920 --> 0:19:57.880 But if there's an opportunity to get one of those 0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:00.679 linebacker or defensive lineman. Yes, other than that man, you 0:20:00.720 --> 0:20:03.800 got weapons all over the place, dron Blant stepping in 0:20:04.080 --> 0:20:05.600 nicely for Trayvon Diggs. 0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:06.800 You still got Gilmore out there. 0:20:06.880 --> 0:20:09.200 Jordan Lewis has been the starter in the league, still 0:20:09.520 --> 0:20:11.360 forcing turnos can cover in the slot. So I don't 0:20:11.359 --> 0:20:13.639 I don't see any other way where you like, we 0:20:14.000 --> 0:20:15.879 have to go make an upgrade here to get us 0:20:15.880 --> 0:20:16.440 to the playoffs. 0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:20.360 Put the cap on Macwell, First off, what's up with Tennessee? 0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:24.200 They just giving Philly dies AJ Brown here and AJ 0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:26.080 Brown you can go out here to wreck the league. 0:20:26.440 --> 0:20:29.040 Take our all pro safety as well. Somebody got something 0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:30.760 on to this. They just flipped. I mean, I just 0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:32.040 don't get golf buddies. 0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:35.520 A run we got here, you can go ahead get 0:20:35.520 --> 0:20:38.680 It's crazy to me, but we talked about a move 0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:40.640 to make I'm with you, d Mac. I'm talking about 0:20:40.680 --> 0:20:43.240 that second level as a as a linebacker court you know, 0:20:43.240 --> 0:20:45.520 I would definitely look into making a move up there 0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:48.520 because where you got right now, you got you know, 0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:50.600 the moon clark out there and the majority of the 0:20:50.600 --> 0:20:52.720 snaps and my and I believe I mean, I don't 0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:54.119 look at it in front of me or nothing like that. 0:20:54.119 --> 0:20:55.959 But the majority of snaps went to Marque's Bell, who 0:20:55.960 --> 0:20:56.560 had a great game. 0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:59.200 Don't get me wrong, he played unbelievable against the Chargers. 0:20:59.520 --> 0:21:02.679 But going forward, man, I just don't see if you 0:21:02.720 --> 0:21:05.480 can play him in that role. I know Lvy may 0:21:05.520 --> 0:21:07.000 come back, you know, in a couple weeks or whatever, 0:21:07.040 --> 0:21:08.840 but in the meantime, I don't know if you can 0:21:08.880 --> 0:21:11.600 continuously play him in that role because when you see it, 0:21:12.200 --> 0:21:14.239 not everybody's gonna be as finesse as the Charges were. 0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:16.000 Where it was kind of just you know, we read 0:21:16.000 --> 0:21:18.000 option here, you know, we'll dump it off to you there. 0:21:18.520 --> 0:21:20.159 A lot of those people are gonna do like the 0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:22.240 forty nine ers did when they see fourteen in the 0:21:22.240 --> 0:21:24.359 box like that, Man, we're gonna write down Hill at year. 0:21:24.440 --> 0:21:27.000 We're gonna go again some more physical opponents. So I 0:21:27.640 --> 0:21:29.639 wish they were able to make a move in that 0:21:29.640 --> 0:21:31.879 second level because lv was such a big loss. You 0:21:31.920 --> 0:21:34.480 got them on Clark. Other than that, you got a 0:21:34.480 --> 0:21:36.680 couple guy you know Evans that he's on the practice squad, 0:21:36.720 --> 0:21:37.919 But you know who you're gonna put in there, that's 0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:40.400 a real linebacker body that's gonna be able to battle 0:21:40.440 --> 0:21:42.720 on the trenches. So either, like you said, a three technique, 0:21:42.760 --> 0:21:44.720 one technique on the interior or that second level. 0:21:44.760 --> 0:21:45.280 I think it's a month. 0:21:45.320 --> 0:21:48.119 Well you got you got the Bazukah, Yeah you do, 0:21:48.280 --> 0:21:50.240 but you have to But you know you know where 0:21:50.240 --> 0:21:52.080 you need him, you know where you know where you 0:21:52.119 --> 0:21:54.200 need him. And he doesn't even count against those numbers 0:21:54.200 --> 0:21:56.080 when you're just thinking about how we attack. I don't 0:21:56.080 --> 0:21:57.439 want to see him an off ball. I don't want 0:21:57.440 --> 0:22:00.000 to see him outIn coverage. He got he got one assignment. 0:22:00.160 --> 0:22:01.920 He got one assignment, and I need you to stick 0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:04.320 with it. But when we come back, man, we're gonna 0:22:04.320 --> 0:22:08.919 talk about this twelve pm game time and whether it 0:22:09.000 --> 0:22:10.600 makes these guys nervous. 0:22:10.640 --> 0:22:16.280 Coming up next on the Players Lounge, I'm. 0:22:16.200 --> 0:22:18.280 Dak Prescott, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, and. 0:22:18.320 --> 0:22:20.800 They snapped the Presscott, who looks right, it's not there. 0:22:21.000 --> 0:22:23.480 He escapes left, He'll look for a first down. 0:22:23.640 --> 0:22:26.119 Just like football, when it comes to crypto, it's important 0:22:26.160 --> 0:22:28.800 to have a team you can trust.

What about you? Oh? 0:25:53.119 --> 0:25:56.000 I see yeah, I love the twelves twelve And I 0:25:56.040 --> 0:25:58.159 didn't really get to have money twelve until I got 0:25:58.200 --> 0:26:00.520 to Jacksonville and we were playing almost every week on 0:26:00.800 --> 0:26:01.520 twelve o'clock games. 0:26:02.359 --> 0:26:03.280 Yeah, we were always. 0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:05.600 We only had even the year we went to THEFC Championship, 0:26:05.640 --> 0:26:07.439 I think we only had one prime time and it 0:26:07.520 --> 0:26:10.320 was a three twenty five game really, or fourth twenty. 0:26:10.040 --> 0:26:11.480 Five out there. Yeah. 0:26:11.720 --> 0:26:14.320 So yeah, I love the twelve o'clock because, like you said, 0:26:14.359 --> 0:26:17.199 you ain't sitting around, you know, thinking about what's going on. 0:26:17.240 --> 0:26:19.280 You just get up, shower, you at the stadium, and 0:26:19.560 --> 0:26:21.480 you're ready to roll those three o'clock in those in 0:26:21.520 --> 0:26:23.720 those later games, have you eat a little bit, it's 0:26:23.760 --> 0:26:25.800 sitting on your stomach and you're like, man, I gotta 0:26:25.840 --> 0:26:28.160 go out here. Man, it's just twelve o'clock. You get 0:26:28.200 --> 0:26:29.959 it in, you get it out, and you're out of there. 0:26:30.000 --> 0:26:30.720 So I'm with the twelve. 0:26:30.880 --> 0:26:32.800 So for this Dallas cowboard team, this is their first 0:26:32.840 --> 0:26:34.920 twelve o'clock game of the season. 0:26:34.960 --> 0:26:36.760 Do you worry about. 0:26:36.480 --> 0:26:39.720 Any let down from this young team? Is there any 0:26:39.960 --> 0:26:40.480 Do you love it? 0:26:40.520 --> 0:26:43.280 I hate it for them, especially it being their first 0:26:43.320 --> 0:26:48.639 twelve o'clock game. I'll tell you what, Okay, I'm not 0:26:48.720 --> 0:26:50.680 worried because we do have some we have some veteran 0:26:50.760 --> 0:26:53.440 leadership on this squad, okay, and I think Mike McCarthy's 0:26:53.440 --> 0:26:55.080 gonna be able to get him right, Dan Clinton get 0:26:55.119 --> 0:26:58.399 him right. Hopefully they don't come out sleepwalking, but we 0:26:58.440 --> 0:27:01.520 do know it can happen. But they playing a team 0:27:01.520 --> 0:27:07.560 that's coming from La ten o'clock for them, Okay. So 0:27:07.560 --> 0:27:10.240 so if it's anybody at a disadvantage at this point, 0:27:10.280 --> 0:27:11.720 I'm gonna give it to the I'm gonna give it. 0:27:11.640 --> 0:27:14.760 To the other squad. So hopefully not. Hopefully they've been 0:27:14.800 --> 0:27:15.600 off a week, they. 0:27:15.560 --> 0:27:19.240 Rested, they like, hopefully just itching itching to get back 0:27:19.240 --> 0:27:21.600 out there. They watched football all week, they saw the 0:27:21.600 --> 0:27:23.400 same forty nine and seen go out there and lose. 0:27:23.680 --> 0:27:25.320 So now they feel a little bit more confident in 0:27:25.359 --> 0:27:27.240 what they can do as far as finishing the season 0:27:27.240 --> 0:27:29.520 hopefully getting the number one seed win in the division, 0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:30.040 whatever that. 0:27:30.160 --> 0:27:31.840 Is, so hopefully they're just ready to go. 0:27:32.119 --> 0:27:34.439 Yeah, which I think, you know, the disadvantage goes with 0:27:34.480 --> 0:27:36.439 the Rams on this one, coming all away from you know, 0:27:36.600 --> 0:27:39.199 la ten o'clock start time for what they're used to, 0:27:39.280 --> 0:27:41.680 so that may bog them down a little bit out there, 0:27:41.720 --> 0:27:46.360 but overall, man, I just man, I just usually McCarthy 0:27:46.440 --> 0:27:48.800 has his team's rate to roll, like we can never say, man, 0:27:48.840 --> 0:27:50.560 this team is just you know, starting slow like we 0:27:50.640 --> 0:27:52.360 used to be able to stay with, you know, Garrett 0:27:52.560 --> 0:27:54.479 in his tenure over there, so he usually has him 0:27:54.560 --> 0:27:56.280 raided roll. So I'm gonna go ahead and go with 0:27:56.359 --> 0:27:58.439 McCarthy on this one and say he's gonna have him 0:27:58.480 --> 0:27:59.760 radar roll at twelve o'clock. 0:27:59.800 --> 0:28:05.160 But nothing about, nothing about it makes you guys nervous, 0:28:05.200 --> 0:28:07.280 and that does not sound right to me. I at 0:28:07.359 --> 0:28:10.000 least figured there would be some pushback on this, because 0:28:10.160 --> 0:28:14.479 y'all remember the Denver Broncos game. I believe twelve o'clock 0:28:14.920 --> 0:28:17.399 it was daylight saving, so you did have another hour. 0:28:18.440 --> 0:28:20.880 It still came out flat. Do you worry about that? 0:28:20.920 --> 0:28:22.240 At least them coming out flat? 0:28:22.359 --> 0:28:22.399 Not. 0:28:22.760 --> 0:28:22.920 Well. 0:28:23.240 --> 0:28:25.760 Yeah, it's possible for them to come out flash, especially 0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:27.560 coming off a boy week like you haven't played you 0:28:27.600 --> 0:28:30.520 out of that routine. That's possible, But I think I 0:28:30.600 --> 0:28:32.960 think they have enough leadership on this team to then get. 0:28:32.880 --> 0:28:33.480 It figured out. 0:28:33.520 --> 0:28:36.040 If it does happen, I'm going to bet that they 0:28:36.119 --> 0:28:38.840 come out ready to play because of where they are 0:28:38.880 --> 0:28:40.880 in the season. And believe me, they still have not 0:28:40.920 --> 0:28:43.400 forgot about getting stomped out by the San Francisco forty 0:28:43.480 --> 0:28:43.840 nine ers. 0:28:43.920 --> 0:28:45.160 They still got a lot to prove. 0:28:45.240 --> 0:28:46.760 To take a whooping like that, you see them come 0:28:46.800 --> 0:28:49.280 back the next week galvanize the team going against the Chargers. 0:28:49.440 --> 0:28:51.520 They want to pick up and keep that momentum going on. 0:28:51.720 --> 0:28:54.000 And I think they're hearing that in the locker room 0:28:54.200 --> 0:28:57.680 Wednesday when they gonna hear a man twelve o'clock game. 0:28:58.480 --> 0:29:00.480 Just so, y'all, you need a red bull, whatever you need, 0:29:01.160 --> 0:29:03.680 make sure you're ready to go all right, because if not, 0:29:03.760 --> 0:29:06.960 this is not the Arizona Cardinals that you plan. This 0:29:07.040 --> 0:29:09.520 is Sean mcvahannam boys, and Cooper Cup is back and 0:29:09.600 --> 0:29:11.800 healthy and they got they can make some stuff happen 0:29:11.840 --> 0:29:13.000 on you before you wake up. 0:29:13.720 --> 0:29:15.720 Mess around be down by twenty. Well, let's do that. 0:29:16.000 --> 0:29:16.600 Let's do that. 0:29:16.680 --> 0:29:19.360 I mean, because y'all, I've got an opportunity to watch 0:29:19.360 --> 0:29:21.800 some football, and you know, this team, I know we're 0:29:21.800 --> 0:29:25.200 gonna talk about them all week, but just your initial 0:29:25.720 --> 0:29:30.000 thoughts on the Los Angeles Rams, what's your thoughts. 0:29:29.720 --> 0:29:32.720 On When you talk about defensively, I think, you know, 0:29:32.800 --> 0:29:34.400 I think they're they're slacking a little bit on that 0:29:34.560 --> 0:29:36.000 end of it. When you when you look at the 0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:38.120 Rams team in the past, it was, you know, they 0:29:38.120 --> 0:29:40.000 got Aaron Donald, who's still a dog. Don't get me wrong, 0:29:40.000 --> 0:29:42.320 He's still a beast, but he also had people beside 0:29:42.360 --> 0:29:43.920 him that can that can do work. They used to 0:29:43.960 --> 0:29:46.479 have a Sean Robbinson out there, Leonard Floyd that can 0:29:46.560 --> 0:29:48.840 help Aaron Donald get after the pass rusher. When I 0:29:48.840 --> 0:29:50.560 look at him now, it's kind of like it's Aaron 0:29:50.560 --> 0:29:52.360 Donald or bus Like. If he doesn't get back there 0:29:52.360 --> 0:29:54.760 and get pressure, the quarterback pretty much got all day 0:29:54.760 --> 0:29:58.040 back there. So to me, defensively, if the Cowboys played 0:29:58.080 --> 0:29:59.880 similar to what they did last week and Dak's able 0:29:59.880 --> 0:30:02.120 to those throws, I think offensively that we should have 0:30:02.160 --> 0:30:04.840 where the Cowboys should have a big time game. But 0:30:04.880 --> 0:30:07.520 when you talk about, you know, the Rams offense, that 0:30:07.560 --> 0:30:09.880 worries me a little bit because you got Cup out 0:30:09.920 --> 0:30:11.800 there and he ain't just stationary on the outside. 0:30:11.960 --> 0:30:14.160 They moved that man slide, you know, got them in motion. 0:30:14.320 --> 0:30:16.120 They do a lot of that eye candy stuff that 0:30:16.160 --> 0:30:18.160 in San Francisco forty nine ers did words. You know, 0:30:18.240 --> 0:30:19.800 you see a lot, you see a little type deal. 0:30:19.880 --> 0:30:22.000 So him and Nicol both out there. You got two 0:30:22.400 --> 0:30:24.239 dynamite weapons we didn't get. 0:30:24.280 --> 0:30:25.760 We don't. I don't believe we had that the match 0:30:25.800 --> 0:30:27.880 on the on the other side, I'm not so sure. 0:30:27.920 --> 0:30:30.560 I mean, I know Bland is playing well, but Gilmore, 0:30:30.560 --> 0:30:33.080 if we looked at what Gilmore has been doing this season, 0:30:33.440 --> 0:30:35.600 he's not the same in Gilmore for twenty nineteen. You know, 0:30:35.760 --> 0:30:37.880 he struggles with guys. And I was talking with and 0:30:37.920 --> 0:30:40.080 we were on what was that on Talking Cowboys earlier 0:30:40.960 --> 0:30:43.560 last week, and Brian Brodders was breaking it down to 0:30:43.640 --> 0:30:45.920 us where he believes Gilmore he he's lost a little 0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:47.760 bit of a step when when teams are starting to 0:30:47.800 --> 0:30:49.400 run him on over routes, it's hard for him to 0:30:49.440 --> 0:30:51.720 keep up over there. So I'm a little bit worried 0:30:51.720 --> 0:30:53.720 when it comes to the Rams offense. But if that 0:30:53.720 --> 0:30:55.920 pass rush comes to play, then that can negate everything. 0:30:56.680 --> 0:30:59.440 Yeah, I listen, the strength of our team is the 0:30:59.440 --> 0:31:02.080 wide receiver in the quarterback. Okay, Matthew Stafford's been doing 0:31:02.080 --> 0:31:04.520 it for a long time, even with Cooper Cup out. 0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:09.719 We see Nicoua get out there and Pookah. Look at 0:31:09.720 --> 0:31:12.120 his stats now, Okay, I think he's two yards short 0:31:12.400 --> 0:31:15.440 of Jamar Chase as far as having the most receiving 0:31:15.520 --> 0:31:16.400 yards in the first. 0:31:16.240 --> 0:31:17.360 Whatever seven eight games. 0:31:17.600 --> 0:31:20.600 Like, the dude is producing and he was in there 0:31:20.640 --> 0:31:24.360 by himself, and defensive coordinators knew that Matthew Stafford was 0:31:24.760 --> 0:31:27.120 thrown to him, and he still found a way to 0:31:27.200 --> 0:31:29.360 still get a honey yards at the Huney yards at 0:31:29.400 --> 0:31:30.040 the Honey Yards. 0:31:30.120 --> 0:31:32.080 So you know that he is he is the real deal. 0:31:32.240 --> 0:31:35.040 And then you got Cooper Cup triple Crown guy. So 0:31:35.120 --> 0:31:37.880 like when you're looking at what you need to stop, 0:31:38.240 --> 0:31:41.640 it's usually like, hey, you got to stop the run. Nah, 0:31:41.800 --> 0:31:42.400 that ain't it. 0:31:42.600 --> 0:31:44.880 You got to figure out a way to trick Matthew 0:31:44.880 --> 0:31:47.959 Stafford and seeing some stuff that he doesn't usually see. Uh, 0:31:48.440 --> 0:31:51.400 maybe seeing some ghosts get Michael par Parsons some time 0:31:51.440 --> 0:31:52.920 to get back there and get those sacks. But if 0:31:52.960 --> 0:31:55.720 you give him time with those two guys out there, 0:31:56.320 --> 0:31:58.560 then it's gonna be a long day for the Dallas Cowboys. Man, 0:31:58.600 --> 0:32:00.800 I got a good friend named because he's not from 0:32:00.800 --> 0:32:06.200 the Polynese knowlans shout out man, Pook and the Coop 0:32:06.200 --> 0:32:07.720 and what are the names that you hear a lot? 0:32:08.360 --> 0:32:10.800 And it's because he's producing it. That's that's the only 0:32:10.800 --> 0:32:13.760 reason him and Cooper Cup and what you just mentioned, 0:32:14.000 --> 0:32:16.840 those crossing routes, they gonna get the Los Angeles Ram 0:32:16.840 --> 0:32:20.640 gonna give you that all day long. And I saw 0:32:21.840 --> 0:32:25.840 what's t J Watt on his interception and he's playing 0:32:25.880 --> 0:32:28.360 in three four but he backs out, baits him and 0:32:28.440 --> 0:32:31.160 on the crossing route that he undercut, And to me, 0:32:31.280 --> 0:32:33.640 I was like, man, that's crazy to see t J. 0:32:33.800 --> 0:32:36.600 Watt undercut a route. He's a dick. How did this happen? 0:32:36.680 --> 0:32:39.480 And you rewinded and you see they baited him because 0:32:39.640 --> 0:32:41.280 they do a lot of those crossing routes. 0:32:41.280 --> 0:32:42.640 And that's how Poker has been eating. 0:32:42.840 --> 0:32:45.640 Now the Cooper Cup is back, that's how he I mean, 0:32:45.680 --> 0:32:47.400 you know what he does, right, They're gonna move him 0:32:47.400 --> 0:32:49.880 and put him in every position to win. But that's 0:32:49.920 --> 0:32:53.000 where I worry about Gilmore. That's where that's why I 0:32:53.040 --> 0:32:55.080 worry about him and his cause what if team has 0:32:55.120 --> 0:32:58.960 been doing racing him across the field and making him 0:32:58.960 --> 0:33:01.760 track those those ross and routes. But I think on 0:33:01.800 --> 0:33:05.600 the other end, offensively, we gotta eat this as a game. 0:33:05.640 --> 0:33:08.880 You gotta eat, you gotta eat. And and I don't know, 0:33:08.960 --> 0:33:11.160 Like when I when I came away from every when 0:33:11.160 --> 0:33:13.680 the last minute went off last last night, I. 0:33:13.680 --> 0:33:14.959 Was like, we got an opportunity. 0:33:15.200 --> 0:33:17.240 We got stumped out by the forty nine ers, but 0:33:17.320 --> 0:33:19.440 we gotta make up for it because this next two 0:33:19.480 --> 0:33:22.200 game stretch, no matter how you look at it, it's 0:33:22.240 --> 0:33:24.480 important because of the who's at the end of that 0:33:24.560 --> 0:33:27.760 two game stretch. You win this, you go into Philly, 0:33:28.320 --> 0:33:30.680 you get a victory in Philadelphia, Dog, that puts you 0:33:30.720 --> 0:33:31.520 right back up at the top. 0:33:31.760 --> 0:33:39.080 Just focus on this week. Hold hold on, no, man, 0:33:39.400 --> 0:33:42.480 I break it down. He came back. Yeah here talking 0:33:42.480 --> 0:33:54.960 about Philly already set up. 0:33:59.680 --> 0:34:03.600 Good, it's great, let me live, let me get you. 0:34:06.040 --> 0:34:08.440 But you know how important this is, man, We gotta 0:34:08.480 --> 0:34:10.160 get this one. We gotta get this And I'm and 0:34:10.200 --> 0:34:12.399 I'm gonna concentrate on the Rams. And that's why this 0:34:12.440 --> 0:34:15.560 game is so important because it just teased you up 0:34:15.600 --> 0:34:17.440 to a bigger matchup in. 0:34:17.440 --> 0:34:19.560 The next week. You know what it is, we know 0:34:19.640 --> 0:34:24.360 what's coming. You trying, you try, He. 0:34:24.520 --> 0:34:26.640 Tried to, and they still put it on all left. 0:34:26.680 --> 0:34:29.520 Let me tell you something about the NFC West already 0:34:29.560 --> 0:34:33.440 in Arizona. Okay, for for all intensive purposes, Okay, when 0:34:33.440 --> 0:34:36.759 you say we got stumped out by by San Francisco, 0:34:38.000 --> 0:34:40.759 Arizona Gables, Arizona's. 0:34:40.200 --> 0:34:41.759 Games, everything we wanted out there. 0:34:41.960 --> 0:34:47.400 Okay, so Rams, Yes, the NFC West for us, it 0:34:47.440 --> 0:34:48.160 ain't been good. 0:34:49.600 --> 0:34:49.880 Again. 0:34:49.960 --> 0:34:52.839 You know, it's the NFC West invitation and we owe 0:34:52.880 --> 0:34:55.200 it to well, we're on one right now, actually going 0:34:55.200 --> 0:34:56.680 two and two were owing. 0:34:56.520 --> 0:34:58.120 To This is a team. This is a team. 0:34:58.320 --> 0:35:01.360 You cannot overlook their Matthews effort again, even with the 0:35:01.400 --> 0:35:03.680 offensive line, and that was my biggest question, like what 0:35:03.719 --> 0:35:06.120 does this offensive line look like the pieces that they 0:35:06.200 --> 0:35:06.680 had in the. 0:35:06.600 --> 0:35:08.160 Super Bowl years, those are gone. 0:35:08.520 --> 0:35:10.879 But Matthew Stafford is getting the ball out quicker, He's 0:35:10.920 --> 0:35:13.680 not taking that punishment back there. They're getting behind the 0:35:13.760 --> 0:35:16.600 running game. And that's the biggest thing for me, Hey, 0:35:16.719 --> 0:35:19.239 we gotta make sure that we stopped the run. We 0:35:19.280 --> 0:35:22.240 cannot give the Rams any life. We can't just okay, 0:35:22.480 --> 0:35:24.839 roleur helmets out there. They're gonna let no no, no, no no, 0:35:25.080 --> 0:35:26.200 they are gonna come to play. 0:35:26.360 --> 0:35:29.239 And guys like pooping the core and Cooper Cup. 0:35:30.480 --> 0:35:33.200 This is this is Hey, this is a serious matchup 0:35:33.200 --> 0:35:39.320 man that I can't I cannot, man, I can't say. 0:35:41.040 --> 0:35:42.560 I don't want you. I just want you to focus 0:35:42.600 --> 0:35:45.560 on this week. You got coming here next month to 0:35:45.600 --> 0:35:45.960 d Matt. 0:35:50.280 --> 0:35:51.759 This is the same thing. You know we were talking 0:35:51.760 --> 0:35:54.399 about against Arizona. I'm just telling you what the same way, 0:35:54.719 --> 0:35:56.399 the same way. Man. I don't know. This guy won't 0:35:56.440 --> 0:35:56.799 let me live. 0:35:56.840 --> 0:35:58.160 But what we're gonna do, We're gonna take a break, 0:35:58.200 --> 0:36:00.120 we're gonna come back, and we're gonna talk about at 0:36:00.120 --> 0:36:02.960 the end it is by weekend what they're looking for 0:36:03.000 --> 0:36:06.200 improvements on in this next game.

Guys, there's a position group that you have 0:39:12.120 --> 0:39:14.239 in mind that you're like, look, they had to have 0:39:14.280 --> 0:39:16.719 gotten this corrected with the two weeks that they've had 0:39:16.760 --> 0:39:19.920 to look at this On Sunday. What's going to be 0:39:20.080 --> 0:39:22.600 that position group that you're going to say, Hey, I'm 0:39:22.640 --> 0:39:24.560 looking at these guys to see what the bye week 0:39:24.640 --> 0:39:25.120 did for them. 0:39:25.239 --> 0:39:25.840 What group is that? 0:39:25.960 --> 0:39:26.120 Then? 0:39:26.320 --> 0:39:27.800 Does it just have to be one or is it 0:39:27.880 --> 0:39:31.600 the quarterback receiver connection? Just your show, because I want 0:39:31.640 --> 0:39:33.200 to say the receiver group, but I just feel like 0:39:33.239 --> 0:39:35.600 the connection between the quarterback and the receiver is where 0:39:35.600 --> 0:39:38.560 we're there's a disconnect there, right because we know that 0:39:38.680 --> 0:39:41.880 we have the talent and the skill to be to 0:39:42.000 --> 0:39:46.440 be more efficient and more and more dynamic, more explosive 0:39:46.520 --> 0:39:50.200 than we have been so far this season. So hopefully 0:39:50.800 --> 0:39:53.759 they're not a position group, but Dak and his receivers 0:39:54.080 --> 0:39:56.400 are more on the same page about what they need 0:39:56.560 --> 0:39:58.560 to do in order to be more exposive than they've 0:39:58.600 --> 0:40:00.920 been so far to season. Man, that's that's a big 0:40:01.000 --> 0:40:04.680 one because I believe over the first six games that's 0:40:04.760 --> 0:40:08.239 been the biggest disconnect between this offense. They have not 0:40:08.360 --> 0:40:12.880 been on time, my man, Mike g hasn't been there. 0:40:12.920 --> 0:40:14.799 And that he's been, He's receiving a lot of heat 0:40:14.840 --> 0:40:16.239 and they gave him a lot of targets too. That's 0:40:16.239 --> 0:40:18.280 why I got three. 0:40:19.880 --> 0:40:22.759 Target, target and a catch. 0:40:24.600 --> 0:40:28.520 That's all right, it wasn't me, but either way, but 0:40:28.680 --> 0:40:31.000 either way, that's a that's a position group. That that 0:40:31.160 --> 0:40:33.680 I agree with you man, that that that connection between 0:40:33.760 --> 0:40:35.960 Dak and his wide receivers. I don't know if he 0:40:36.000 --> 0:40:38.200 took him to Cabo what they had to do over the. 0:40:38.200 --> 0:40:42.200 Publicly, ain't they went to Sam's up the street, man, 0:40:43.360 --> 0:40:46.319 thank you, thank you. It's fun, all right, But either 0:40:46.360 --> 0:40:49.040 way that connection has to happen. B C, what about you. 0:40:49.320 --> 0:40:50.960 I'm gonna go with the running game on this one. 0:40:51.520 --> 0:40:53.840 I don't know if it's the old line, you know, 0:40:54.160 --> 0:40:56.800 whatever it is going there, or if it's Tony Poler division, 0:40:56.840 --> 0:40:58.959 whatever the case may be. Like when you talked about 0:40:58.960 --> 0:41:02.719 the connection between DAK this running game, just it's just 0:41:02.920 --> 0:41:06.120 not what I thought it might be going into the season. 0:41:06.400 --> 0:41:08.360 And we looked at Tony Pollard, there's a lot of 0:41:08.400 --> 0:41:10.920 question marks going into the year. You know, after that injury. 0:41:10.960 --> 0:41:13.080 Can he bounce back? Can he be that Bell Kyle guy? 0:41:13.160 --> 0:41:15.120 Can he be the guy that you know Zeke was 0:41:15.160 --> 0:41:16.360 for so many years, And not saying he gotta be 0:41:16.480 --> 0:41:19.279 that type of back, but kind of the same level 0:41:19.320 --> 0:41:21.200 of production, and we just haven't seen it. If you 0:41:21.200 --> 0:41:24.240 look out here the last two games, twenty three carries 0:41:24.400 --> 0:41:27.719 fifty nine yards in the last two games. So I 0:41:27.760 --> 0:41:30.640 don't know if it's lack of him getting the attempts 0:41:30.719 --> 0:41:32.959 or getting whatever in the passing game, running game, whatever 0:41:33.040 --> 0:41:37.080 it is, but he's just not producing. And I just 0:41:37.320 --> 0:41:39.320 would love to see more from Tony Polter and this 0:41:39.400 --> 0:41:40.920 running game because feel like that's when you get the 0:41:40.960 --> 0:41:43.480 best Dallas Cowboys offense, when they're balanced out there and 0:41:43.560 --> 0:41:45.320 it's not just all on one individual. 0:41:45.640 --> 0:41:48.399 So to me, hey, this run game it speaks for himself. 0:41:48.440 --> 0:41:51.040 The last two games, very with it. 0:41:51.520 --> 0:41:55.640 I remember when Zeke's numbers looked like that, and I 0:41:55.800 --> 0:41:59.160 remember Barry, you did not take it easy on Zeke 0:41:59.320 --> 0:42:04.840 like that. Okay, oh man, but this man said, twenty three. 0:42:09.120 --> 0:42:11.960 Cardion over it? Wait up? 0:42:13.440 --> 0:42:13.480 What? 0:42:20.640 --> 0:42:20.920 But no? 0:42:22.800 --> 0:42:23.000 Yes? 0:42:23.120 --> 0:42:27.040 When when if Zeke was here his numbers look like that? 0:42:27.440 --> 0:42:30.120 Oh man, I'm talking about it. Would they would have 0:42:30.160 --> 0:42:33.400 been throwing a fit. I can't believe. Not just you, 0:42:33.520 --> 0:42:36.280 I'm talking about just people in general. Because what happens 0:42:36.400 --> 0:42:38.200 is when you think about Tony poland you think about 0:42:38.239 --> 0:42:40.480 how explosive he is, you're thinking about four or five 0:42:40.520 --> 0:42:41.640 yards of carry exactly. 0:42:42.040 --> 0:42:43.440 That ain't that too? 0:42:46.880 --> 0:42:49.360 So like yeah, so like it has it has to 0:42:49.440 --> 0:42:52.080 pick up because like the stylar ball you want to 0:42:52.120 --> 0:42:55.000 play is I'm going to lean on my defense by 0:42:55.160 --> 0:42:57.840 helping them and us keeping the ball, by running it 0:42:58.760 --> 0:43:02.040 in short and moving this fix twenty three cars fifty 0:43:02.080 --> 0:43:04.080 some of yards and that ain't even that should. 0:43:03.840 --> 0:43:06.719 Be one game, twenty three carries or near near with 0:43:06.840 --> 0:43:09.160 it when you talk about receiving and running, but twenty 0:43:09.200 --> 0:43:10.960 three over two games, that's that's bad. 0:43:11.000 --> 0:43:11.840 That's not gonna cut it. 0:43:13.320 --> 0:43:15.040 The thing is when you see somebody like CEMC have 0:43:15.160 --> 0:43:18.719 a game like that, the imprint that he has outside 0:43:18.760 --> 0:43:22.080 of just running, it's huge. Right, you got three touchdowns 0:43:22.080 --> 0:43:24.279 on three catches for you know whatever. So like, if 0:43:24.320 --> 0:43:27.120 you're not getting the yards that we are expecting five 0:43:27.160 --> 0:43:29.799 point your five point whatever yards are carry then yeah, 0:43:29.800 --> 0:43:32.560 you got to be catches a touchdown, being a difference 0:43:32.600 --> 0:43:35.160 maker in the passing game, whatever that is or else. 0:43:35.360 --> 0:43:36.720 You know, So we in trouble. 0:43:36.760 --> 0:43:38.359 If we look at the forty nine ers, he had 0:43:38.560 --> 0:43:42.200 to see eight rushes and you know, four receptions, so 0:43:42.480 --> 0:43:43.040 that's twelve. 0:43:43.680 --> 0:43:47.120 That's twelve touches total for a guy that is explosive 0:43:47.200 --> 0:43:49.040 as as a tony part of it is. I just 0:43:49.200 --> 0:43:51.960 you know, I would love to see more of it. 0:43:52.040 --> 0:43:52.160 You know. 0:43:52.480 --> 0:43:53.759 In the LA game was a little bit more. He 0:43:53.840 --> 0:43:57.040 had fifteen rushes and six receptions. The six receptions went 0:43:57.040 --> 0:43:58.600 for eighty but there was one play where it was 0:43:58.680 --> 0:44:02.040 kind of a scramble broke down one on that one 0:44:02.160 --> 0:44:02.640 from behind. 0:44:02.880 --> 0:44:08.879 Yeah, you're gonna see that some of the fast guys 0:44:08.960 --> 0:44:09.440 in the league. 0:44:09.480 --> 0:44:13.080 Okay, okay, but I'm gonna say I'm gonna say this, 0:44:13.520 --> 0:44:16.800 and that's where I was going uh b C. I 0:44:16.960 --> 0:44:19.279 was going with the running back position. I thought that 0:44:19.520 --> 0:44:22.919 Tony Poller was the one player that needed the bye week. 0:44:23.880 --> 0:44:27.279 He needed the bye week because Tony Poller man and 0:44:27.360 --> 0:44:29.759 a lot of points this done those six games. I 0:44:29.880 --> 0:44:32.480 was like, man, he's he running like he already in 0:44:32.600 --> 0:44:36.080 mid season for him, you know. And I agree that 0:44:36.280 --> 0:44:38.279 the touch is if they don't come in the form 0:44:38.360 --> 0:44:40.400 of running the ball, we need to at least expose 0:44:40.520 --> 0:44:43.320 him as a as a wide receiver. And and I 0:44:43.400 --> 0:44:46.160 think you saw that two weeks ago, but it was 0:44:46.360 --> 0:44:48.839 you got all the yardage on one play. But either way, 0:44:48.920 --> 0:44:50.719 that's the kind of imprint that you want for Tony 0:44:50.760 --> 0:44:53.160 Poller to have. But he has to have more of 0:44:53.239 --> 0:44:55.920 an imprint in the running game because what does that do. 0:44:56.120 --> 0:44:59.759 That keeps the clock running, that keeps keeps your defense fresh. 0:44:59.840 --> 0:45:02.240 And for all the things that Mike McCarthy has promised 0:45:02.520 --> 0:45:06.359 about this offense, we've seen it work to perfection when 0:45:06.440 --> 0:45:08.560 it has that balance like you just spoke of, and 0:45:08.719 --> 0:45:10.680 then the defense can just come in there and hunt 0:45:10.960 --> 0:45:11.200 and do. 0:45:11.320 --> 0:45:11.759 What they do. 0:45:12.760 --> 0:45:15.880 But man, I'm telling you this, there's there's some pressure 0:45:15.920 --> 0:45:18.600 on the defense too. There's some pressure on the defense. 0:45:18.680 --> 0:45:21.120 No matter what, there's some pressure on the defense, and 0:45:21.239 --> 0:45:24.760 there's some pressure on Michael Parsons. I believe that Michael 0:45:24.800 --> 0:45:27.320 Parsons and his production and what you thought would be 0:45:27.680 --> 0:45:30.440 by now you hadn't seen it. And maybe it's because 0:45:30.480 --> 0:45:32.719 of the double teams. Maybe it's because of the way 0:45:32.760 --> 0:45:35.560 the teams are playing him. Let's see if dan Quinn, 0:45:35.800 --> 0:45:39.640 Let's see if dan Quinn has reformulated anything with number 0:45:39.680 --> 0:45:41.600 eleven and found what found a way? 0:45:41.840 --> 0:45:44.560 Come on, man, I got I got two things real quick. Okay. 0:45:44.680 --> 0:45:47.080 You talked about Tony Pauler need a by week in 0:45:47.160 --> 0:45:49.920 week six they ain't playing no preseason and he got. 0:45:49.880 --> 0:45:52.120 How many more games left without a bye week? Man? 0:45:52.360 --> 0:45:55.080 Man, because that's the case that he in trouble. And 0:45:55.440 --> 0:45:56.680 how they blocking Michael Parsons. 0:45:56.840 --> 0:45:58.920 I just I just can't. I can't do it anymore. 0:45:59.000 --> 0:46:02.600 Okay, we said thing, watch Miles Gearedtt have two tight 0:46:02.760 --> 0:46:07.680 ends follow him from left to right. I mean, uh, 0:46:09.760 --> 0:46:11.000 they got to lay a game because they was way 0:46:11.120 --> 0:46:12.319 trying to figure out who it was gonna be at. 0:46:12.880 --> 0:46:15.280 When you talk about Michael Parsons and we say, okay, 0:46:15.840 --> 0:46:18.480 how about this, where is he now in in the 0:46:18.719 --> 0:46:21.640 uh in the Defensive Player of the Year vote, what 0:46:22.000 --> 0:46:24.040 do you think, like, how is he at the top 0:46:24.520 --> 0:46:28.680 or behind who? Miles geared t j yt right, So 0:46:29.719 --> 0:46:33.200 is it close right now? Is it close based off 0:46:33.280 --> 0:46:36.120 what you've seen from those from those two and then 0:46:36.840 --> 0:46:38.960 right now is running away with it and my estimation, 0:46:39.080 --> 0:46:41.000 but just with the way that he's playing. I mean, 0:46:41.239 --> 0:46:44.000 and these are two miles Miles just jumped over. 0:46:45.360 --> 0:46:46.040 Let me just say this. 0:46:46.760 --> 0:46:48.840 And when I look at those two guys and I 0:46:48.960 --> 0:46:52.440 just do the schematics on them much bigger and they 0:46:52.480 --> 0:46:54.560 played a different scheme than than he. 0:46:54.680 --> 0:46:57.520 Then we've had this conversation if Teaser playing. 0:46:57.239 --> 0:46:58.840 In the three four verse playing in the four to 0:46:58.880 --> 0:47:00.759 three And I don't know if Dan is gonna ever 0:47:00.920 --> 0:47:03.720 get around to that as long as he's coaching and michaeh, 0:47:04.040 --> 0:47:06.600 but maybe that's the best position for him in this 0:47:06.800 --> 0:47:09.640 defense versus moving him all around the way that. 0:47:09.880 --> 0:47:11.880 But he'd have to be bigger. I'm gonna say, you 0:47:11.920 --> 0:47:14.480 can't just line him up in one. Absolutely, he'd have 0:47:14.600 --> 0:47:15.040 to be bigger. 0:47:15.040 --> 0:47:16.839 And I think the guys that you're talking about are 0:47:17.520 --> 0:47:20.279 Jesus Christ this, I mean, what is this guy from 0:47:20.440 --> 0:47:25.440 from Cleveland May up. But when he's playing defensive line, 0:47:25.480 --> 0:47:29.279 that's not de fault. You know, he's a guy playing 0:47:29.360 --> 0:47:31.480 what I what I want to see. I want to 0:47:31.520 --> 0:47:34.440 see more usage of Michael Parsons. Guys, I'm telling you 0:47:34.520 --> 0:47:37.040 go back and watch the tape. Michael was lining up 0:47:37.080 --> 0:47:40.000 at the one technique like in a three point stance. 0:47:40.200 --> 0:47:41.759 I don't think that's the best way to use no 0:47:41.880 --> 0:47:44.480 but leve. I know he's good, but is he one technique? 0:47:44.480 --> 0:47:44.680 Good? 0:47:45.480 --> 0:47:45.680 Look? 0:47:45.880 --> 0:47:47.799 Those are just some questions that I have going into 0:47:48.160 --> 0:47:50.120 after this bye week. I'm gonna be looking at all 0:47:50.160 --> 0:47:52.520 of that. Man. But this was a good show. Good 0:47:52.560 --> 0:47:56.239 show man. He knew he will be back tomorrow. He 0:47:56.440 --> 0:47:59.720 is making his way back from Houston, probably smelling like champagne. 0:47:59.719 --> 0:48:03.920 And that's all he at the breakfast club, wobbles and 0:48:04.200 --> 0:48:05.680 drinks and all type of stuff he. 0:48:08.960 --> 0:48:09.400 Ain't not do. 0:48:13.640 --> 0:48:15.719 That's the players last man. We'll be back to mind 0:48:15.880 --> 0:48:17.480 two o'clock. Thank you for rocking Winners. 0:48:18.200 --> 0:48:21.120 This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and 0:48:21.320 --> 0:48:23.160 the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
