Speaker 2: We just call him Mama. Mama brought us.
Speaker 6: Mama brought us.
Speaker 5: I can't be as bad as last show.
Speaker 8: I was on talking and we were talking about Isaiah
Speaker 8: and he had gone out to see his in laws
Speaker 8: or something he had. We were talking about, like, Hey,
Speaker 8: how's your weekend. I was like, oh, I had hung
Speaker 8: out with the in laws. I was like, oh, like,
Speaker 8: that's a tough time.
Speaker 6: Huh.
Speaker 5: He was like, my wife watches every episode was like,
Speaker 5: oh it was a really good time. It's good. So
Speaker 5: I felt horrible after that show. I was like, oh
Speaker 5: my god, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 6: I'm an idiot.
Speaker 2: But hey, man and laws of good people, great.
Speaker 8: Great, great people, great people. It's just the stereotype's funny.
Speaker 2: It is. It is, all right, So let's let's jump
Speaker 2: into this. We've got it's a Tuesday, so we go
Speaker 2: big picture today. We're going to go into the brain
Speaker 2: of Brian brought us. In the second segment, we'll get
Speaker 2: some questions. Although members as opposed to it, we are
Speaker 2: going to take some fans questions in the final segments,
Speaker 2: so feel free to go and send those to me
Speaker 2: on Twitter or x whatever you call it. We can
Speaker 2: also take phone calls eight eight eight eight five five.
Speaker 7: People are taking you as literal, like a literal joke.
Speaker 7: People send the messages on Twitter just well, like I'm.
Speaker 2: Just saying that this is one of those things where
Speaker 2: I really try to get to it and Ambers spike
Speaker 2: the fan base. Okay, Amber's comments series. It goes a
Speaker 2: little long at times, so we don't end up getting
Speaker 2: to all the fan questions, but we're gonna get to
Speaker 2: them today. We're gonna do that in the third segment.
Speaker 2: I have some that have already started rolling in. We've
Speaker 2: got actually quite a few that are rolling in, so
Speaker 2: we'll try to get to as many as we can
Speaker 2: in that final segment. In the first segment, though, today,
Speaker 2: I wanted to do something I call on second thought.
Speaker 2: It's a kind of a relook at some of the
Speaker 2: things I noticed in the game and get some opinions
Speaker 2: from you guys. I want to start first with the
Speaker 2: wide receiver group. Ceedee Lamb had thirteen catches in that game.
Speaker 2: He had seventeen targets, and it's a huge amount of
Speaker 2: attention that's being paid, and he did convert that and
Speaker 2: made that into one hundred and forty six yards of
Speaker 2: receiving with two touchdowns. No other receiver had more than
Speaker 2: forty four yards receiving in that game. My question for
Speaker 2: you guys is this is offense too dependent on Ceedee
Speaker 2: Lamb and do you think that when Cooks returns that
Speaker 2: changes first question?
Speaker 8: Yes, if you are an opposing defense, and I think
Speaker 8: I said this last couple of weeks. If you were
Speaker 8: an opposing defense, who other than.
Speaker 5: CD scares you?
Speaker 8: Yeah, Jake Ferguson, sometimes not all the time. That was
Speaker 8: a question I asked yesterday Brian Schwenhaumer's like, Hey, why
Speaker 8: isn't Jake Jake Ferguson getting more involved? You know, especially
Speaker 8: in a time where Brandon Cooks has been out and
Speaker 8: they need to find a reliable second option. I believe
Speaker 8: he finished with under twenty yards and it's not like
Speaker 8: he's been the game breaker that he was last year,
Speaker 8: So you know, why why isn't he getting more involved?
Speaker 9: So?
Speaker 2: Yeah, what was his response? I'd be inged to his
Speaker 2: response on that.
Speaker 8: So I had phrased it more so in a sense of, Hey,
Speaker 8: when Dak is feeling pressure, Jake Ferguson has been a
Speaker 8: reliable target and we haven't really seen Jake that much.
Speaker 8: I believe his answer was along the lines of, yeah,
Speaker 8: we need to get Jake going.
Speaker 5: We would like to get Jake going. It's kind of
Speaker 5: an intention for us, so weak mind.
Speaker 2: Saying all the things we all are thinking.
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, it's funny you bring us up because
Speaker 10: in my questions I had for you, one of them was,
Speaker 10: this offense needs Brandon.
Speaker 6: Cooks back in the worst way. They need something. I
Speaker 6: don't know if it's Jake.
Speaker 10: Ferguson, and I know that we all felt like I
Speaker 10: know on our show at one five three the Fan,
Speaker 10: we felt like the targets were probably going to go
Speaker 10: Ceedee Lamb, Jake Ferguson, Cooks and others. We're gonna get opportunity,
Speaker 10: but they they right now, it's been really difficult. It's
Speaker 10: so when you when you watch tight end play around
Speaker 10: the league. That was a record day for NFL tight
Speaker 10: ends overall through the whole Sunday, a record day, and
Speaker 10: you kind of felt like your tight end was like
Speaker 10: standing outside the window looking with his face up against
Speaker 10: the glass, you know, because you know all these other
Speaker 10: tight ends are having successful days you're about to play
Speaker 10: against one had a really big day. And but that's
Speaker 10: that's the things I you know, offensively, Yeah, I know,
Speaker 10: in my in my at the in the in the
Speaker 10: halftime show, I said, you know, Zach Wilchick asked me
Speaker 10: what do you have to do. I'm like, Max, protect
Speaker 10: and throw the ball to CD Lamb every play. Now,
Speaker 10: that's what you got to do. You just they don't
Speaker 10: have an answer for him. I don't think teams really
Speaker 10: do still have answers for him. I think if they
Speaker 10: really want to get him the football, they can, but
Speaker 10: they need to find something else here. It needs to
Speaker 10: be whether and we and we keep talking about maybe
Speaker 10: a Tollbert, maybe Brooks. Maybe they tried it with Turpin
Speaker 10: the other day. You know, Turpin got a lot more
Speaker 10: opportunity in that game. Somebody's got to stand up in
Speaker 10: this thing, though. You know, somebody's got.
Speaker 6: To stand up.
Speaker 10: And you know, if you can get the ball to
Speaker 10: the CD, you can find ways.
Speaker 6: To get the ball to Ferguson though too.
Speaker 10: That's where I think that that's where I'm losing the
Speaker 10: little faith right now in this offensive attack.
Speaker 7: So when you start singling out people and saying and point,
Speaker 7: let's say at CD, Okay, he's not having a good season.
Speaker 7: You point Jake Ferguson not a good season, Brendan Cooks
Speaker 7: during the time that he did play, not having a
Speaker 7: good season. And you can go down the line and
Speaker 7: the offensive line as well.
Speaker 5: Can I make one quick heavy I don't think CD's
Speaker 5: having a bad season.
Speaker 7: Not to where you expected to be, though.
Speaker 5: I understand where you.
Speaker 8: I understand your point there third in the NFL and
Speaker 8: receiving at the end of the day, and I think
Speaker 8: this last performance kind of put him back on the map,
Speaker 8: like firmly it's on point.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's starting to pick up just a little bit.
Speaker 7: And to me, and again, it's when you look in
Speaker 7: comparison of what happened last year, and then you add
Speaker 7: the contract on top of that and the expectations and
Speaker 7: just what it's what his presence it's even doing as
Speaker 7: an offensive like in general. That's my point. But with
Speaker 7: that being said, is like when you start looking at
Speaker 7: everyone individually and then you realize, like, okay, so many
Speaker 7: people are not performing at the level that you expect
Speaker 7: them to. Where is the root of the problem at
Speaker 7: that point, Derek.
Speaker 2: Offensive line, I said yesterday, it's the offensive line, I
Speaker 2: think right now, and again, I think the natural the
Speaker 2: first thing you'd want to say is the quarterback. But
Speaker 2: I think the reason why the quarterback is not as
Speaker 2: effective as he's been because of the offensive line. I
Speaker 2: think the root cause is right now, this offensive line
Speaker 2: is not playing to the level that they need them
Speaker 2: to play to.
Speaker 10: Well, I think the lack of a running game also
Speaker 10: kills them of this stuff too. The threat you know,
Speaker 10: teams play light box against you. They don't you know,
Speaker 10: they're going to play coverage.
Speaker 6: They're not. They're not scared of your running game at all.
Speaker 2: So how much did that is also because of the
Speaker 2: offensive line?
Speaker 10: I think I think it goes into that. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 10: I absolutely do. I just you know, the running backs, Yeah,
Speaker 10: you just don't. You don't, I like Rico Dabdle, I
Speaker 10: really really do. But you look at what's happening up front,
Speaker 10: and they've been in behind in games. They've been in
Speaker 10: behind in games where they haven't a lot they can't
Speaker 10: establish the run because there's really when he calls a
Speaker 10: running play, it's a you know, it's it could be
Speaker 10: a negative play, it could be a no game play.
Speaker 10: I mean, there's a lot of empty runs that these
Speaker 10: guys have, you know, I mean, I give Zeke credit
Speaker 10: in the runs he had the ten carries or so,
Speaker 10: he had, at least four of them were you know,
Speaker 10: what they would call successful runs four plus yards a
Speaker 10: carry and they just can't get to that. They just
Speaker 10: can't get to where it turns into. You know, they
Speaker 10: they could run the football like they did at one time,
Speaker 10: where it was, you know, it was that you hand
Speaker 10: the ball off on the first down, and then it's
Speaker 10: it's second and four, it's second and five, it's they don't,
Speaker 10: it's second and nine, it's second and ten. They can't
Speaker 10: get anything established running the football, and I think that
Speaker 10: really affects the quarterback. Quarterbacks got to be better too, though.
Speaker 6: I mean, he's.
Speaker 10: Reverted back to what we talked about a little bit
Speaker 10: yesterday with the fifteen interceptions. Now that sees it a
Speaker 10: lot half of those maybe not his fault, but you
Speaker 10: look at the ones that are going on right now.
Speaker 10: These are on him and he knows that. And that's
Speaker 10: but you know, offensive line, receivers, scheme, there's a lot
Speaker 10: of things affecting how this offense is really struggling.
Speaker 2: Yep, all right, let's get to the second question I
Speaker 2: have for you guys. On second thought, Cowboys are only
Speaker 2: able to generate two sacks, two quarterback hits, that's it
Speaker 2: in the entire game last week. Is there an answer
Speaker 2: for generating pressure in the absence of Parsons and Lawrence
Speaker 2: that this team can possibly look at doing at this
Speaker 2: point because they won't have Lawrence back for a while.
Speaker 2: Who knows what Parsons. You think it's gonna be sooner,
Speaker 2: but obviously that hasn't happened to this point. What can
Speaker 2: they do at this point to generate pressure?
Speaker 6: Play an offensive line like their own?
Speaker 2: It's been a problem, you know, thanks or the hope.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but that's you know, they'll do it Wednesday. But yeah,
Speaker 6: in reality though, in reality, though.
Speaker 10: Zimmer's trying to bring pressure, he's trying to bring blitzers.
Speaker 10: He's trying to bring you know, the blitz that they
Speaker 10: got home on. They took advantage of.
Speaker 7: The that's the problem. That's sorry, just like hit me.
Speaker 7: I'm like, look who they're practicing against.
Speaker 6: How are you?
Speaker 5: How are you going to get better?
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's what I kind of pointed to as far
Speaker 8: as fools gold with the defense when I was talking
Speaker 8: on that point last week. I believe it was the
Speaker 8: game where you were.
Speaker 5: Like, yeah, you brought that up shop or disappointed.
Speaker 8: I was like, yeah, I thought this defense is going
Speaker 8: to be really good, and I've attributed a lot of
Speaker 8: that to the fact that they've been playing a very
Speaker 8: young offense.
Speaker 5: Sorry, Brian, No, it's just hit me.
Speaker 10: I'm like, damn, they you know, they they haven't really
Speaker 10: every week we kind of talk about an area maybe
Speaker 10: that you can attack, and they just they just have
Speaker 10: not been able to take advantage of certain certain players
Speaker 10: and certain opponents. And unfortunately, though it's it's reflected on
Speaker 10: you know that that teams feel comfortable throwing the football,
Speaker 10: they feel comfortable running the football play there's nothing that
Speaker 10: makes these play callers feel, you know, feel like they're
Speaker 10: in stress. I mean, two of the two of the
Speaker 10: big stops you got, in my opinion, were because of
Speaker 10: you know what what a coach did. And now, okay,
Speaker 10: I should say this, the fact that the pressure maybe
Speaker 10: the blitz and the fourth down play that's crossing the route,
Speaker 10: he throws the ball behind Samuel, he throws the ball
Speaker 10: in front. That's another huge play for them, but it
Speaker 10: goes behind and Dallas catches a.
Speaker 6: Break thirty one. What do they do.
Speaker 10: They they try they bring in a receiver and they
Speaker 10: try to kind of gimmick you with a with a
Speaker 10: pass into the flat and it gets tipped. You get
Speaker 10: off the field.
Speaker 6: That way.
Speaker 10: Sometimes you gotta be lucky that way. Kansas City played
Speaker 10: against San Francisco, and the entire game was that sometimes
Speaker 10: you and you know Kansas City was able to were
Speaker 10: a couple of times where Kansas City didn't get pressure
Speaker 10: did get stop shid. But like luck and then maybe
Speaker 10: Shanahan's ego allows you to get the football back. But yeah,
Speaker 10: they're just not generating nearly enough pressure. And it's not
Speaker 10: I don't think it's from a lack of trying. I
Speaker 10: don't think they're skilled enough to do it. And they just.
Speaker 6: Haven't had the ability to get guys home when they blitzed.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, we're gonna take our first break when
Speaker 2: we come back. We'll go inside the brain of Brian
Speaker 2: brought us. We'll be back Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio.

Speaker 2: Welcome back, final second segment of the Morgans Studios Star Jesus.
Speaker 2: All right, Brian, let's go inside.
Speaker 5: Your brain when you're late to the show.
Speaker 2: What Yeah, that means I had ten minutes to find
Speaker 2: the read. We find it.
Speaker 5: That's good. That's a good one.
Speaker 6: All right, good, got you here? Nick, Here we go.
Speaker 6: Do you expect changes at safety this week after the
Speaker 6: San Francisco game.
Speaker 8: Man that I wanted to bring that up this week.
Speaker 8: I'm glad you well, I'm glad you started with that.
Speaker 8: Were you surprised it was one? I'll get your I'll
Speaker 8: answer your question. Were you surprised question? Were you surprised
Speaker 8: it was one year?
Speaker 6: Thomas H Yeah, little bit.
Speaker 8: I was a little bit, but I understood it a
Speaker 8: little bit. I think they needed somebody to handle those crossers. Yeah,
Speaker 8: and Kittle was just killing them with those crossers. And
Speaker 8: it's something that I've asked Eric Hendricks about overshown Zimmer.
Speaker 8: Zimmer gave me kind of a short answer yesterday. But
Speaker 8: these crossing routes have been killing them for these first
Speaker 8: seven games every time.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 8: And if you look at what Kyle Pitts can do,
Speaker 8: if you look at what they try to do to
Speaker 8: get Darnell Mooney open as well. Drake Lonn is more
Speaker 8: of an outside guy. But you Ray Ray McLeod as well,
Speaker 8: those crossers, they're gonna come right back at you.
Speaker 5: Mercedes Been Stadium on Sunday.
Speaker 8: So yeah, I anticipate a little bit more one yay
Speaker 8: if they anticipate that he is better at covering those
Speaker 8: crosser routes.
Speaker 2: Derek, they need something, They need some I think right now,
Speaker 2: if I look at the defense and I go position
Speaker 2: by position and say which position is hurting you most?
Speaker 2: Is hurting this team most? That would be the second position.
Speaker 2: I would call defensive tackle would be the first, and
Speaker 2: the second would be safety. I think right now you're
Speaker 2: not getting the types of you, certainly not. I mean
Speaker 2: everything that that they that they paid Donovan Wilson to
Speaker 2: be able to do, because I don't think there was
Speaker 2: any illusion that he was going to be a great
Speaker 2: cover guy, but you were paying him to be the
Speaker 2: guy on the spot, the guy to be able to
Speaker 2: come up and make the big tackle, to be able
Speaker 2: to diagnose plays, fill fill the gaps, and this last game,
Speaker 2: it just wasn't there. There were there were a number
Speaker 2: of times where he was out of position, had bad angles.
Speaker 2: It's just he's not doing those things well. And so
Speaker 2: when I look at it, I'm just like, right now
Speaker 2: the safety position is a is a problem for the
Speaker 2: defense and I don't even know why, because I don't
Speaker 2: it's such a drastic departure to me from what they
Speaker 2: were last year. I thought they played both of them.
Speaker 2: I thought they played much better last year than they're
Speaker 2: playing right now. And I don't really know why.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe that's maybe that's it, but it's it's just
Speaker 2: out there. I'm just saying that's a difference, right, you
Speaker 2: start looking for what's the difference, or maybe.
Speaker 10: They're playing the streak where they're played so much single
Speaker 10: high that they were plaid down and now you're not
Speaker 10: playing a guy in.
Speaker 2: Different kind of defense. You know, maybe they're being asked
Speaker 2: different things. They're not really suited for this defense. Maybe
Speaker 2: who knows. I just know it's a big departure from
Speaker 2: what we were last year, and I think something has
Speaker 2: to change. And you mentioned it last week. I think
Speaker 2: Bell is the guy. I want to see a little
Speaker 2: bit more Bell because I think last year playing linebacker,
Speaker 2: outside the fact he was giving up so much size,
Speaker 2: he played well, he filled well. So I actually would
Speaker 2: like to see him a little more at safety.
Speaker 8: So it wasn't a product of maybe this is my
Speaker 8: theorizing of Hey, one year is going to be better
Speaker 8: in coverage and we are severely lacking in coverage, right.
Speaker 8: I think West Marquis Bell is going to be your
Speaker 8: run support, but also can be a guy that can
Speaker 8: cover it.
Speaker 10: Late in the game though, you started seeing like Lewis
Speaker 10: got to cover there, then he was Makualmu there.
Speaker 6: I think it was a little too late at that
Speaker 6: point in time.
Speaker 10: Ag you get a thought on this one safety change
Speaker 10: after the forty nine er game.
Speaker 7: Well, you know what saw exists like we had come
Speaker 7: such a long way from the years where you did
Speaker 7: not have a safety yeah, and then you had to
Speaker 7: figure it out. Your safety group was all taken care of,
Speaker 7: they were all doing a good job, and then all
Speaker 7: of a sudden it's starting to fade away once again,
Speaker 7: and you're definitely needing support back there. But again, I
Speaker 7: think it all starts from the front as well. It's
Speaker 7: all it starts with what the defensive line is doing
Speaker 7: and then it trickles back to the rest of the defense.
Speaker 7: So they definitely have some issues there, but hopefully maybe
Speaker 7: with some of these changes it can help improve that area.
Speaker 10: All good answers, Guys, appreciate that, Derek, give me something
Speaker 10: you'd absolutely do to help this team, but they most
Speaker 10: likely won't do.
Speaker 2: So that I do right now a long time?
Speaker 10: How long do you have something, yeah, just taking any
Speaker 10: way you want. Give me something that you would absolutely
Speaker 10: do to help this team, but most likely they won't.
Speaker 2: I think I would probably look for more help at
Speaker 2: the defensive tackle position, and I would invest some significant
Speaker 2: resources in it because I think what we've seen over
Speaker 2: the last few years is without having that piece there
Speaker 2: in the middle of your defense. And quite frankly think
Speaker 2: it's really both defensive tackle position one technique and the
Speaker 2: three technique. I think Osa is a good player. I
Speaker 2: want more from my for my three technique. I really
Speaker 2: wanted more pressure. I should have been around the league.
Speaker 2: Around the league, you're seeing this more and more how much.
Speaker 2: And I was watching the Eagles, and I mean, they're
Speaker 2: they're drafted. Their guy is just upfill every play. The
Speaker 2: Giants last night upfill every play. Uh and and they're
Speaker 2: affecting the quarterback and it changes how the quarterback has
Speaker 2: to play when that pressure is coming up the middle.
Speaker 2: And I would love to see more of that from Osa.
Speaker 2: It just doesn't seem like he's having those types of
Speaker 2: game altering type plays. And and again I think he's
Speaker 2: a really good player. I just don't think he's I
Speaker 2: want more. And I don't know what that is, what
Speaker 2: that looks like, or I should say I don't know
Speaker 2: what that looks like. I don't know where they get that.
Speaker 2: But I really think if I had the opportunity to
Speaker 2: kind of change some things, I would really look I'd
Speaker 2: go into this offseason thinking I really got to upgrade
Speaker 2: the interior of my defense.
Speaker 10: But like I said, I asked it in a way
Speaker 10: of most likely they wouldn't do.
Speaker 2: They wouldn't do. Well, you look at the history like
Speaker 2: that's not been that's not been an error. They typically
Speaker 2: invest the resources they did invest that first round pick,
Speaker 2: and that that also makes me wonder if that. You know,
Speaker 2: sometimes you're always against something and then somebody talks into
Speaker 2: doing it and it doesn't work. It doesn't work. No,
Speaker 2: that's not a safe pank. And then they doesn't work,
Speaker 2: and then you're like, I ain't doing that ever again.
Speaker 2: So it makes me wonder if they'd be like I
Speaker 2: ain't invest in the first round in defensive tackle because
Speaker 2: I've seen what that looks like and that didn't work
Speaker 2: for me. But but I don't I don't know that
Speaker 2: their history says they don't invest much in the defensive tackle.
Speaker 5: Walker fantasy is just slipping as Derek talks.
Speaker 10: About, Hey, gee, give me something that you would absolutely
Speaker 10: do to help this team, but most likely they won't do.
Speaker 7: Change the play caller mmm in season in season, Like
Speaker 7: right now, I'll tell you what I mean to go to?
Speaker 2: Who is the question, like, is that gonna be better?
Speaker 10: I'm just telling you to me, I like what you
Speaker 10: just did. I personally like what you Yes, I would
Speaker 10: absolutely let Mike manage the game, let him watch, let
Speaker 10: him if he wants interject some thought.
Speaker 6: I think I would.
Speaker 10: I would take a shot at this point in time, Yes,
Speaker 10: because a shot shot him. But now and you can
Speaker 10: you can? I like what you you can finish your thought.
Speaker 10: I'm sorry, I don't mean to I I.
Speaker 6: Love your answer. I love your answer.
Speaker 7: But to answer your question there, I mean that definitely
Speaker 7: will not do this. But I mean, you have to
Speaker 7: wait so long for the season to get here. So
Speaker 7: it's this whole mentality of like, we just gotta let
Speaker 7: it run the course and wait again, I'm like, for what,
Speaker 7: we don't have time? So why not again? This is
Speaker 7: not gonna happen. And my respects to uh Mike McCarthy.
Speaker 7: I do love him as a head coach. I just
Speaker 7: don't think right now he's doing a good job with
Speaker 7: the play calling. There are many choices, questionable choices. They're
Speaker 7: also the scheme. A lot of the things that he does.
Speaker 7: I don't think it's helping position his players in the
Speaker 7: best spot possible for them to succeed and be successful
Speaker 7: at executing some of these plays. So I think there's
Speaker 7: a lack of creativity there, and especially when you see
Speaker 7: what other teams that you're facing are bringing to the
Speaker 7: table and you're like, dang, okay, well you see all
Speaker 7: the other options that it's happening around the NFL that
Speaker 7: you're like, okay, why can't we try certain things like that?
Speaker 7: Or clearly it's not working right now. So yeah, that's
Speaker 7: something I would do, But they wouldn't.
Speaker 8: That fourth place sequence there at the end where they
Speaker 8: had there you go in there, you go see three
Speaker 8: of those four are vertical routes. You haven't completed a
Speaker 8: vertical route since the telephone was in Venea.
Speaker 5: What do we do?
Speaker 6: Well?
Speaker 10: See, that's the thing about it is to that I
Speaker 10: look at this and you don't do anything in the third.
Speaker 10: Then all of a sudden, he takes that massive play
Speaker 10: sheet and he finds something like for two or three
Speaker 10: series and you're like, going, okay, And then you have
Speaker 10: that last sern and that last series and you're going,
Speaker 10: what the hell did you flip back to where you
Speaker 10: were calling plays in the third that weren't working? To me,
Speaker 10: I'm looking for some consistency. Not every play is going
Speaker 10: to work, but you know what, stay with something that
Speaker 10: might be stay with something you know you you're right
Speaker 10: about that.
Speaker 6: Why are we throwing this? Why are we doing that?
Speaker 6: Ill way?
Speaker 10: Maybe a time to run, how about you know? To me,
Speaker 10: I just think you have to do something different, and
Speaker 10: they won't do it.
Speaker 8: Dak and McCarthy both mentioned coming out of the bye
Speaker 8: week is the one thing, one of the many things
Speaker 8: that has been hurting this offense is they are in
Speaker 8: third and fourth and long too much. Yeah, and a
Speaker 8: lot of things can be attributed to that. But from
Speaker 8: a play call perspective, From a play calling perspective, when
Speaker 8: you are in second and ten, you need to get yards.
Speaker 8: Whatever that looks like. When you were in second and ten,
Speaker 8: you have to make it easier on your third down.
Speaker 8: It's just it has to be one thing I would
Speaker 8: change that. I don't think they would. Yeah, hit this
Speaker 8: trade market hard in the next week. I think just
Speaker 8: in general, you can talk about defensive tackle, you talk
Speaker 8: about running back, you can talk about, uh, did you
Speaker 8: get another receiver?
Speaker 5: Do they need another receiver? They might, they might they
Speaker 5: need another receiver.
Speaker 2: But we just finish saying you got Cee Lamb and
Speaker 2: do what else you got?
Speaker 8: Yeah, they do need another receiver. But if I'm like
Speaker 8: stacking my list of preferences defensive tackle, running back, man,
Speaker 8: the way the corner depth has been killed, I'd look
Speaker 8: for a depth corner. I mean, there's there's a lot
Speaker 8: of things that I would look at too.
Speaker 2: Can I throw something out there? I probably should have
Speaker 2: said this, but I went first. I didn't think fully
Speaker 2: about it. If you, if we all said, and I
Speaker 2: know I've been pretty adamant about this, the biggest problem
Speaker 2: they have right now is the offensive line. At some point,
Speaker 2: would you consider the fact that maybe, and I know
Speaker 2: you don't from continent continuity standpoint, you're like, well, we
Speaker 2: we want our guys to be there at the same place.
Speaker 2: Would you consider, like, take your left guard, move them
Speaker 2: to the left tackle, take your left tackle, move them
Speaker 2: to right tackle, bring in your guy off the bench
Speaker 2: to play left guard, and then you may have your
Speaker 2: best five on the field that, by the way, may
Speaker 2: be in their most natural positions. I don't know, but
Speaker 2: there's an argument to be made. At some point, you're
Speaker 2: going to keep banging your head against this brick wall
Speaker 2: and not getting the results from your offensive line. At
Speaker 2: some point, do you make the changes and just see, like,
Speaker 2: I don't know that it's going to get a lot
Speaker 2: this one.
Speaker 7: There's nothing to lose.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it could go off the rails.
Speaker 10: I mean, but the problem you run into is you
Speaker 10: have a head coach is on an Inspire expiring contract,
Speaker 10: and now you're asking him to make a.
Speaker 6: Bunch of changes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a big chance.
Speaker 10: You're now you're giving up on the season and his
Speaker 10: job is on the line.
Speaker 7: Because if it works out and he's it improves slightly,
Speaker 7: then we're giving him praise and we're clapping our hands
Speaker 7: and we're like, okay.
Speaker 10: But but thank you very much for thank you very
Speaker 10: much for doing what we asked you to do. But hey,
Speaker 10: good luck to you down the road. You know, that's the
Speaker 10: problem he's in right now. That's you're asking. You're gonna
Speaker 10: ask these coaches to as a as a front office
Speaker 10: to probably if this scene goes really poorly, and I
Speaker 10: mean really poorly, where you're you know, you've you've lost.
Speaker 6: Five or six games.
Speaker 10: Now you're gonna ask like we're already playing young guys,
Speaker 10: you really are, because of the injuries, so you can't
Speaker 10: ask him to do that. The reason you probably lost
Speaker 10: six games in a row at that point is because
Speaker 10: you're playing young guys that now you have to ask
Speaker 10: the coach like, hey, would you mind giving up the
Speaker 10: play calling a little bit here?
Speaker 6: Would you mind? You know? And that guy's gonna like go,
Speaker 6: you know, screw you. You know, I'm not.
Speaker 10: I mean, it's a it's a really it's a tightrope
Speaker 10: those guys have to walk because when it goes south,
Speaker 10: everybody in the coaching staff knows they're probably not going
Speaker 10: to be back.
Speaker 6: Now if you start asking them to do things, they're like,
Speaker 6: screw you.
Speaker 7: But you're right, I mean, and it is a difficult situation.
Speaker 7: But this you're exactly at the mark of the season
Speaker 7: where you can either make a left keep going to
Speaker 7: or turn things back around and actually have a fair
Speaker 7: fight here in competition.
Speaker 2: But I don't know, but I think I think that's
Speaker 2: also the nature of coaches, at least my experience of
Speaker 2: watching them is they it's almost like Brian, you said
Speaker 2: this with scouting, once you've seen it, then you think
Speaker 2: it can happen again. And I think that's the whole
Speaker 2: Zeke thing. I think they seen Zeke be very, very productive,
Speaker 2: and so in their minds like we can if we can,
Speaker 2: just like he's he's gonna, it's gonna work. It's gonna
Speaker 2: You just gotta keep it doing. You gotta keep doing it,
Speaker 2: and you gotta stay. And I just but I do
Speaker 2: think that a lot of this from the standpoint of
Speaker 2: how these coaches think about it is they've seen it
Speaker 2: before and they're just gonna say, you just gotta let
Speaker 2: it keep going, you gotta let it, you gotta let
Speaker 2: it work, and eventually we'll get there, and then they
Speaker 2: run out of time.
Speaker 10: This might be the coaches, And I'm just this is
Speaker 10: the theory that the coaches might say, sure, the front
Speaker 10: office is asking you to play Zeke. The front office
Speaker 10: is saying, hey, what about we get more touches for Zeke.
Speaker 10: We get some more touches for Zeke. In the front
Speaker 10: off of the coaches staff's like, well wait a minute.
Speaker 10: Rico Daddle probably gives us the best chance. But all
Speaker 10: of a sudden you're kind of like, Okay, well, well
Speaker 10: we'll show you. We're gonna we're gonna, we're gonna play
Speaker 10: Zeke here and Zeke played well the other day. Yeah,
Speaker 10: he had some decent It just makes me wonder if
Speaker 10: it's if it's the front office that's pushing for Zeke
Speaker 10: and the coaches are thinking like, fine.
Speaker 6: We'll we'll, we'll, we'll.
Speaker 10: Step back and let you know, let we'll play Zeke
Speaker 10: here and see what it is that.
Speaker 6: That's what I worry about a little bit.
Speaker 10: Then maybe it might not be a coaching thing. It
Speaker 10: might be a front office thing to play Zeke here. Okay,
Speaker 10: do I have time for one more? You can carry
Speaker 10: the show a little longer? And I know Ambar is hungry.
Speaker 10: We gotta Okay, my last question for you guys, Uh,
Speaker 10: for you Nick.
Speaker 5: Let's do it?
Speaker 6: Was that just a one off for Dalvin Cook? What
Speaker 6: you like? One off? That's it. We're only gonna see him.
Speaker 6: They're gonna activate him this.
Speaker 2: One days he's done.
Speaker 5: We'll seem in Atlanta, you think so?
Speaker 6: In Atlanta?
Speaker 2: Six carries and we've seen all we need to see
Speaker 2: get done.
Speaker 6: I mean after all that, I mean Dottal will be
Speaker 6: back and all that. Though. The thing is unless he
Speaker 6: gets sick again.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the motions, well, it's a shorter bus ride this time.
Speaker 8: Know the uh, Douce Fawn was activated in his place
Speaker 8: and he didn't play one snap.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's probably the easy switch off.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's hurt.
Speaker 8: So that he'll he'll place in for for Michael Parsons
Speaker 8: if he's back. So I don't anticipate Zeke being inactive either.
Speaker 8: So I think it's gonna be a Zeke, Rico Dalvin
Speaker 8: Cook backfield.
Speaker 6: Okay, so it's.
Speaker 5: Off early week, whisper, I guess Derek went off.
Speaker 2: No, I don't think it's one off. I think he'll
Speaker 2: be back. I do wonder how they will integrate him
Speaker 2: and how they're gonna split up these carries, because with
Speaker 2: Rico back, I'll keep riding. I think Rico's the best
Speaker 2: riding back to have on this team. So I don't
Speaker 2: know where he fits, and I don't know especially with
Speaker 2: him and Zeke because I think they're kind of the
Speaker 2: same tight back. But that being said, yeah, I don't
Speaker 2: think it's a one off. I think he'll he'll stay up.
Speaker 2: I just think it's a matter of you know, how
Speaker 2: they're gonna use him.
Speaker 6: Hey, g No, I agree.
Speaker 7: I don't think one game is enough or it's even
Speaker 7: fair for you to give like a good assessment on
Speaker 7: the player and what he can do or contribute to
Speaker 7: your offense. So I don't I do see him coming
Speaker 7: back again. But again, you're in this situation because of
Speaker 7: your own doing and your own decisions.
Speaker 2: So I love what mamas out. You want to look
Speaker 2: at the camera, just point you did this to yourself.
Speaker 5: So if they go for three, Chris take me off.
Speaker 8: If they go oh for three on Dalvin Cook elevations,
Speaker 8: is it Malik Davis next?
Speaker 5: And what he got? He's still on the team.
Speaker 2: I always, I completely forgot he was still on the right.
Speaker 2: Is still on the team. All right, We're gonna take
Speaker 2: a final break. We will come back. I got some
Speaker 2: questions from the fans out there on We'll get to

Speaker 2: Welcome back. It is the final segment of the break
Speaker 2: life in this WBC Mortgage studios. At the start there,
Speaker 2: y'all know how to get growled up inside jokes, folks. Sorry,
Speaker 2: all right, let's let's get some questions. We got some
Speaker 2: questions from X. Let's hit here in the final segments
Speaker 2: so we can get amber off to lunch. Question from
Speaker 2: Chris Johnson, he says, are we playing our best five
Speaker 2: offensive lineman? What would you change if anything? On the
Speaker 2: offensive line. I've already told you guys how I would
Speaker 2: line it up.
Speaker 5: What would you guys do you had run run back
Speaker 5: your your.
Speaker 2: I said, I would go with Smith at left tackle,
Speaker 2: Bass at guard, keep BB at center, keep Zach at
Speaker 2: right guard, and I would move guiding.
Speaker 5: Over the left or to right tackle.
Speaker 2: So basically, I would take steel out and I would
Speaker 2: put bass in and then move everybody around.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I think that that is your best
Speaker 5: five at the end of the day.
Speaker 6: Is still about as Richard's playing guard.
Speaker 2: I don't think which guard I mean the left guard.
Speaker 10: I mean I know that over bass, that's where he
Speaker 10: to me, that seemed like some of the best reps.
Speaker 6: That he was taking.
Speaker 14: It.
Speaker 2: Is he better than basses? I'm asking is he better
Speaker 2: than bass at left guard?
Speaker 10: I kind of know what bass is, but he was
Speaker 10: better than bass I would take. That's why I'm saying,
Speaker 10: That's why I'm asking. Yeah, I'm asking about maybe playing
Speaker 10: and seeing if he's better than you're saying.
Speaker 2: You're saying I've seen enough to where I want to
Speaker 2: see if you give him those riches. I don't know
Speaker 2: he does he get better.
Speaker 10: I don't know if, like you say, awesome Richards might
Speaker 10: be an awesome player, I don't I don't know that
Speaker 10: he never gets to play, so you know, I mean,
Speaker 10: I kind of understand what TJ.
Speaker 6: Bass is.
Speaker 10: I would be interested to see if awesome Richards plays
Speaker 10: better than bass going forward. That's where I would be
Speaker 10: if if we're shuffling things around I'd give Awesome Richards
Speaker 10: a look.
Speaker 2: Just to see, just for clarity standpoint. I think I
Speaker 2: remembered you tell me and correct me if I'm wrong
Speaker 2: that you thought Awesome was a better right guard than left.
Speaker 2: Is that accurate?
Speaker 10: I didn't say that, Okay, I know that they talked
Speaker 10: about TJ. Bass that way. Okay, talk about Bass being
Speaker 10: a better right right guard right guard than a left guard.
Speaker 2: So the expectation is, let's assume Zach moves on next year.
Speaker 2: Bass is the guy you're thinking move into right. That
Speaker 2: could be very well, and then maybe Awesome is your
Speaker 2: left guard.
Speaker 10: I just I would like to know if things are
Speaker 10: getting best five it's I think that's all debatable right now.
Speaker 6: But I don't know what kind of player Awesome Richard
Speaker 6: truly is.
Speaker 10: Ausesome Richards as a guard looked looked, Okay, he really did.
Speaker 6: And I'm just.
Speaker 10: Curious though, if you know, and that's that's based on
Speaker 10: that scrimmage is against the Rams and some pre games,
Speaker 10: and then all of a sudden they started having some
Speaker 10: injuries and he had to go out to tackle. So
Speaker 10: I just I was just curious. I kind of understand
Speaker 10: what Bass is. I think Bass is a serviceable player.
Speaker 10: I just wonder if Austin Richards is a better player.
Speaker 6: Yep.
Speaker 7: I mean I'm at the point that I don't truly
Speaker 7: know who the best fives are anymore because everybody has
Speaker 7: not played at the level that you want them to. Smith, well,
Speaker 7: with the exception, I think he's been he's been good.
Speaker 7: He's been good, but you know, it's a trickle down
Speaker 7: effect that he's like everybody has to be doing their
Speaker 7: exact job, but otherwise he just kind of screws up
Speaker 7: the person next to you in that instance. So it's
Speaker 7: just hard but there, and again, I don't think it's
Speaker 7: a take one guy out, plug this other guy and
Speaker 7: then everything will be magically fixed and better. So I
Speaker 7: don't really have a good answer to give at this
Speaker 7: point because I don't even know if the answer is
Speaker 7: here on the team.
Speaker 10: Didn't notice a negative play for Tyler Smith until the
Speaker 10: very last play of.
Speaker 6: The game on the offense.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean that's I mean, you kind of like
Speaker 10: you're sitting there and you're like the whole game, he
Speaker 10: you know, you great all the plays, and then the
Speaker 10: very last play he gets beat and Dak has to
Speaker 10: kind of go to his right and try and throw
Speaker 10: the ball, and that's when you're gonna go, oh, well,
Speaker 10: how did that happen? Tyler Smith got beat, you know,
Speaker 10: And but he's played the whole game and played well
Speaker 10: and then the one play. That's that's the that's the
Speaker 10: story of offensive That's what offensive line is.
Speaker 9: Right.
Speaker 2: You have a great game and you have one play
Speaker 2: and then you have one.
Speaker 7: But overall, I mean, he's been amazing in his career
Speaker 7: in general, Like everything that he's done, he's been great.
Speaker 6: I think Cooper BB has been really good too.
Speaker 2: I'm very impressed with how he's developed. I mean, he's
Speaker 2: he's getting better every weekend.
Speaker 5: I think it better in the run game.
Speaker 6: But yeah, he's not there.
Speaker 2: I'm saying from where he was week one to where
Speaker 2: he is now, I think he is making the development
Speaker 2: that you wanted to see him. Everybody knew it was
Speaker 2: going to take a little while he's playing a new position.
Speaker 2: We knew it was going to take a while. But
Speaker 2: I think he's developing.
Speaker 6: I think all five guys get better in the run
Speaker 6: game exactly.
Speaker 8: Do you feel like BB has been better than Beddish
Speaker 8: was last year. There's a reason I asked that it's
Speaker 8: not to it's not to slam dunk on BB. I
Speaker 8: think it's more so a proven point to that. Guid
Speaker 8: And and BB are still a very much work in progress.
Speaker 2: Because I think they had different issues. Like to me,
Speaker 2: be Oddish, power was always a challenge for me with
Speaker 2: with Beyaddish. I don't know if that's Bibe's problem.
Speaker 6: I think BB's.
Speaker 10: I think the difference between BB and Beddish, I think
Speaker 10: that BB doesn't have the experience. Now he's getting the
Speaker 10: experience we're into going into week eighty of football. Here
Speaker 10: a week nine of football. Yeah, so you're getting You're
Speaker 10: just getting that experience. I thought last week he was
Speaker 10: much better of when it came to those blocks of
Speaker 10: like getting that guy down and then getting up on
Speaker 10: the second level.
Speaker 17: There.
Speaker 10: That's the difference. I think that that that had that
Speaker 10: understanding of how to do that. I don't think he
Speaker 10: could physically do.
Speaker 6: It all the time. That's that's where I think the
Speaker 6: difference is. For me.
Speaker 2: I think maybe's a better player. I think he's still
Speaker 2: developing and so I think there's.
Speaker 5: Still a little he's going to be so good.
Speaker 2: I think he's going to be a long term, he's
Speaker 2: gonna be a really good player for them, and I
Speaker 2: think he's gonna be way better than what beatis was.
Speaker 2: I think long term, that's an interesting question you say
Speaker 2: right now just it's different things experience to me.
Speaker 10: But we're going into week nine. Yeah, I mean, these
Speaker 10: guys really aren't rookies anymore. A lot of Theo's guys
Speaker 10: that played none nine games, they're not rookies anymore.
Speaker 8: Got about four more weeks until Tyler Guiden has doubled
Speaker 8: his career starts.
Speaker 5: Wow, when you put it like that, it's crazy.
Speaker 2: All right, let's get one more question before we finished.
Speaker 2: Sullivan ask, after seeing Chouncey Golston play extensively with you
Speaker 2: consider resigning him going forward in the future.
Speaker 8: I just had this conversation with somebody I don't remember
Speaker 8: who over the course of the last couple of days.
Speaker 6: John.
Speaker 8: He said, yes, he is of the current defensive line
Speaker 8: picture right now, and how it is, Chauncey Golson is
Speaker 8: the only one I would bring back.
Speaker 10: I tell you what they we talked about it last week.
Speaker 10: The Edges needed to play well. You were talking about
Speaker 10: Edges focus on run, that Edge focused on the run,
Speaker 10: and I thought that they were did a good job
Speaker 10: and did a really.
Speaker 6: Good job at it.
Speaker 10: So uh man, you know he's he's changing the narrative
Speaker 10: for me because I've always felt like he was kind
Speaker 10: of a flash player. But you know, he just these
Speaker 10: reps he's getting every week. I mean, he's playing more
Speaker 10: and more and more. I think you're getting a better player.
Speaker 10: I just don't know what's going to happen. Could he
Speaker 10: be and is this allow you to move on from
Speaker 10: a tank and then he take that spot. That's probably
Speaker 10: why you would make that determined the nation to go
Speaker 10: sign him, if you would.
Speaker 2: You know, he reminds me. He reminds me of a
Speaker 2: guy like a Tyrone Crawford from the standpoint of I
Speaker 2: think he's I think he's a good player, and I
Speaker 2: wonder if if they would have left him at one spot,
Speaker 2: oh all this time.
Speaker 17: How much better of a player he could be.
Speaker 2: We've seen just in these last few weeks, how much
Speaker 2: better he is when he's at just opportunity to keep
Speaker 2: playing at one spot. And it makes me wonder if
Speaker 2: they did him a bit of a disservice by creating
Speaker 2: that position flex and moving him tackle guards, I mean
Speaker 2: tackle in, tackle in as opposed to just putting him
Speaker 2: in one spot and really letting him develop.
Speaker 6: I me personally too, I'd like to see kJ Henry
Speaker 6: play more. I really really would. At edge.
Speaker 10: There's some things that he did in that game the
Speaker 10: other day that I thought were pretty good. So I
Speaker 10: mean it, when you watch him and how he was
Speaker 10: playing the run and how he was getting up the field,
Speaker 10: how he was kind.
Speaker 6: Of redirecting himself, I think they. I think that the way.
Speaker 10: He looks his profile and all that, there's there's something
Speaker 10: to work with there. I'd like to see him get
Speaker 10: more of an opportunity, maybe over Carl Lawson, if that's
Speaker 10: the case.
Speaker 2: I read a stat the other day that of all
Speaker 2: those defensive ends, I think I want to say kJ
Speaker 2: Henry was the only one that wasn't.
Speaker 17: But they had zero pressures for the game.
Speaker 2: Zero And that's that's an astounding number. I'm not saying sacks.
Speaker 17: I'm just saying pressure.
Speaker 2: That's just beating your guy enough where the quarterback has
Speaker 2: to kind of rethink what he's doing or move. And
Speaker 2: that's where if you get in that situation, that's how
Speaker 2: you end up getting beat against a team that's compromised offensively.
Speaker 17: If you can't get pressure on him.
Speaker 5: It's just I think part of that was a product though,
Speaker 5: of the edges.
Speaker 8: They did commit to the run game, and they the
Speaker 8: Niners didn't find success in the run game until they
Speaker 8: started going under center and hammering it downhill and went
Speaker 8: after the tackle. So I think the tackles not getting
Speaker 8: home for pressure wise, I think that's that's more you.
Speaker 2: Said, you mean the ends not getting home or the
Speaker 2: tack you said the tax tackles.
Speaker 5: Not getting home. I got on pressures.
Speaker 8: I got if they were going to put the ends
Speaker 8: and commit them to the run game, then they had
Speaker 8: to be able to dedicate pressure somewhere or pressure intention somewhere,
Speaker 8: and it has to come from the tackles or because
Speaker 8: they didn't send any spot blitzers, you know.
Speaker 5: So I agree.
Speaker 2: All right, appreciate you guys, Jonas. We'll be back tomorrow.
Speaker 2: We'll jump into next game, start getting ready for a
Speaker 2: Cowboys versus Falcons. Should be an interesting matchup until tomorrow.
Speaker 2: For Nick Harris, Brian broad us In, Aregarciam, Derek Eigelton.
