A 28 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: share of first place in the East is on the line, Fellas, 29 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: who would have thunked? Who would have thunked that three 30 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: weeks ago? Did you think they were sunk after Tessee? 31 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: I thought I thought it. We were trying to figure 32 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: out or I was trying to figure out ways too. Okay, 33 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: how do you beat Philadelphia? What the combination to get 34 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: the next three weeks? How do you get back into this? 35 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 1: And I shouldn't say I thought they were sunk. I 36 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: thought that it was going to be a difficult road. 37 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: But I didn't really trust Washington. I was more worried 38 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: about how Philadelphia was going to play. I was worried 39 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,839 Speaker 1: that Philadelphia was going to find a way to kind 40 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: of turn things around and put some things together and 41 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: then okay, they're the ones that overtake Washington and now 42 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: you're chasing them, and so I was worried about that, 43 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: but boy, it's really kind of Both teams have had 44 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: their issues, as the Cowboys have found a way to 45 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 1: claw their way back in this I would have never 46 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: believed that they could have won road games against Philadelphia 47 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: and then Atlanta the way they did. What do you think, Bick, 48 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: Are you surprised that we're here? Not really on this 49 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: grand Holiday eve? You know, there's a there's a reason 50 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: why the NFL said there's a sixteen game schedule. It's 51 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 1: not an eight game schedule, and you got to you 52 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: gotta play it out. And I think we saw them 53 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: sort of making strides, you know, even though it didn't 54 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: totally show up in the Tennessee game, but they should have. 55 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: They played well enough offensively in the first quarter to 56 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: be up seventeen to nothing had they not missed the 57 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: field goal and had the interception in the end zone. 58 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: But they were moving the football, so that was encouraging, 59 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: and that was the thing that was holding this team back. 60 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: They just weren't playing that well offensively, and I think that, 61 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: you know, the change and the offensive line coach and 62 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: bringing in a Marie Cooper has made a difference in 63 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: how the efficiency of this offense so far. Now it's 64 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: two games and as we like to say, we'll see, 65 00:03:55,360 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: but if if the eye test holds true, then you're figuring, Okay, 66 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: they got something going here. Now it's a matter of 67 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: going out and playing well on a consistent basis. I 68 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: think they're capable. I think they just were struggling early 69 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: in the season's with a young team with new guys 70 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: playing in different positions, and they just weren't clicking early. 71 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: But I think this change on the offensive line, the 72 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: style they're playing now, I think has helped out greatly. 73 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: In a gut feeling, you asked, I'm a Missouri man, 74 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: show me, have they shown you? They are showing me. 75 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: They haven't shown me. Let's have you know. It's like 76 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 1: they're in the process of showing. But they got to 77 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: continue going here to trust them, especially coming out on 78 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: a short week and preparing because because because these games, 79 00:04:54,560 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: it's like I could remember Jimmy Johnson's philosophy, on the 80 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: short week, you do everything physically possible you can do 81 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,119 Speaker 1: to win that Sunday game and then on the short 82 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: week on Thursday. It's like you hang on for dear 83 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: life and you hope that your talent can get you 84 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: through a game when neither team's going to be physically 85 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 1: fit ready to play. Yeah, you hope for no sleet 86 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: and yeah, and a mistake at the end of it, right, 87 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: or some backup quarterback come in and light up the 88 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: game on Thanks Oh, I've been I've been on the 89 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 1: other end of that. That's we've seen that ball coach 90 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: here lit me up on a Thanksgiving Day game. It's funny, 91 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: how there. That's that's a history in this franchise, you know, 92 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: and not just Redskins. It's Jason Garrett against Green Bay 93 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: on ninety four. It's Clint Longley and seventy four. Yeah, 94 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: we're not We're over the twenty year mark. It's almost 95 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: time for you know, is it gonna be another one 96 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: in it? There's some bade what Matt mcloyin or something 97 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: came in there on Thanksgiving one year? It didn't the Raiders, Yeah, 98 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: but they got they gotta like fourteen nothing in half 99 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: and to point in the game. But yeah, yeah, I 100 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: feel like there's some fans out there that are a 101 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: little more worried about Colt McCoy than they are Alex Smith. 102 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: And obviously everybody hopes Alex Smith has a full recovery. 103 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: But this is a guy that has played in the 104 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 1: league and played well. He's had a lot of time 105 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: in their system. You know, he's not a first year 106 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: backup there, and I don't think they're going to do 107 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 1: anything differently in the game plan from what I could see. 108 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: They don't and they don't have to and they don't have. Now. 109 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 1: The difference that will be is that he does not 110 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 1: have the arm strength that Alex Smith has. So you 111 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: know where Alex Smith will all of a sudden, it's underneath, underneath, 112 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: run underneath, run, and then take a shot down the field. 113 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: I don't think that you'll see the big time. Let's 114 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: throw at sixty yards and see what happens. Bit Now, 115 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: Cult McCoy is capable of the thing that Cult McCoy 116 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: can do really well in this offense is he can run, 117 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: and he's really a good ball handler and he knows 118 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: where he wants to go with the football. He's very 119 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: quick at getting the ball out of there. I mean, 120 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: he's like Okay, got to got Jordan Reed in the flat, 121 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: get it to him. You know, got the slant, get 122 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: it to him. You know, got the at the back 123 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: on the wheel, get it to him. That That's that's 124 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: the reason why they got back in that game the 125 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: other day after Alex Smith got hurt because he took 126 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: the game plan and said, Okay, I'm just gonna do 127 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: what I can do here. That that and he you know, 128 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: and then that's why you have to worry about him. 129 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: Like on those third and ones, third and two is 130 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, they go heavy play action and 131 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: he spins out of there and starts running for six 132 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: yards and then gets down on the ground. That's why 133 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: the accuracies his calling Car. It's absolutely his calling Car. 134 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: And it's a different quarterback on a really short week 135 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: too that you're having to prepare for. But you, like 136 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: you said, I think it's the same. I think that 137 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: changed what they do. No, this is not this is 138 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: not somebody like Lamar Jackson coming in and playing for 139 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: the Ravens and running the ball twenty nine times exactly. 140 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: Was Yeah, that's hard on your defense to have to 141 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: turn I think that's one of the reasons why the 142 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: league on these Thursday night games, for the most part, 143 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: try and give divisional matchups to at least give you 144 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: a chance. I mean that Carolina Pittsburgh one was a 145 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: kind of a weird combination they had, But usually they 146 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: try and say, oh can a short week. At least 147 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: both teams know each other, both teams understand, but this 148 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: is not a This will not be a drastic difference 149 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: at quarterback for the Washington Redskins tomorrow. To answer your 150 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: question about show me that was in Mickey's it was 151 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: your gut feeling last week, it's actually Philadelphia. Was it Philly? Yeah, 152 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: time to show me show me? Yeah, he's right. They 153 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 1: are showing us. I think offensively, they're showing us there 154 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: they can be more efficient and they can get back 155 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: to doing what they've done well for three years off 156 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: and on, and that's that's mainly Zeke Zeke Elliott and 157 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: then playing off of that with a guy like a 158 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: Marii Cooper on the outside. But I don't get the 159 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: sense this week from this team that they feel like 160 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: they've accomplished something. Oh no, not at all. Because you 161 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: heard what the word is in the locker room. Right 162 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: backs are still against the wall. Yeah, I are. Think 163 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: about the ramifications of this game. It's huge, huge, Yeah. 164 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: I mean you got first six and five, you're tied, 165 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: but you're in first place by half a game on 166 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: the tiebreaker, right right, and you've split head to head, 167 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: you lose. Now you're two games back, but really three 168 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: because now they own the head to head tiebreaker, right, 169 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 1: and games are they're starting to disappear, right, you only 170 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: have you'll be down three games with five to go, 171 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: and you're playing the next week on a Thursday night 172 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: at home. And that's that's not happens to be the Saints. 173 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: That's not an unwinnable game. But that's then you guys 174 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: travel down there and yep, they got that done. They 175 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: got that one done on the road. But um, that's 176 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: that won't be an easy matchup, and neither will be Philly. 177 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: Uh ten days after that an AT and T Stadium 178 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: as well, coming in trying to get some revenge against Dallas. 179 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: So yes, like you said, Mick, from the standing standpoint, 180 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: this is huge. Um, And we'll see. And it looks 181 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 1: like based off of practice and it was a light 182 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: practice yesterday, they're getting a little healthier on the defensive 183 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: line that seemed encouraging. Yeah, it looked like Antoine Woods 184 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: would return. Tackle Charlton has a chance, I think, to return, 185 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: So that that helps out from a a depth standpoint, 186 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: And if they didn't think otherwise, they wouldn't have released 187 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: Christian Ringo. After they signed him off the practice squad. 188 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 1: They figured, okay, we got bodies now we can think. 189 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 1: Daniel Rawkins and Daniel Ross looked like he was, you know, 190 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: in the warmups yesterday. I don't know what he did 191 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: in practice, but in the warmups he looked awfully good running. 192 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: So so those three guys, that's it. That's somewhat encouraging. 193 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: You know. David Irving still out. I don't think we'll 194 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:52,839 Speaker 1: see him until after the nine day break, after New 195 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: Orleans at the earliest, I guess. So, yeah, I think 196 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: on from a defensive standpoint, you get those guys back 197 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: out there. Same thing with Sean he's he's not playing. 198 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: But you know, if you continue to play well defensively 199 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: as they have with the exception of Tennessee, then every 200 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: week you give yourself a chance to win if you 201 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: can score twenty or more points, and this team struggles 202 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: to score points in point Washington. Yea, even with Alex Smith. 203 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: Their theory or plan was to run the football with 204 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson, be really good up front, kind of create 205 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: some holes, play action, and then play really good defense. 206 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: You know, if you go back and watch, I think 207 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,199 Speaker 1: I know you guys have already done that, gone back 208 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: and watched and you saw that game live that was 209 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: played there FedEx Dallas was awful up front against the Redskins. 210 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: They were awful, I mean, and then to me and 211 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,079 Speaker 1: then here they almost win the game if they can, 212 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 1: you know, somehow get it to overtime. But that that 213 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: that was a struggle for them to have to do 214 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 1: what they normally do well, and that's and that's run 215 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: the football and protect their quarterback. Was that the game 216 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: Zeke ran for like thirty two yards? It was awful. Yeah, 217 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: he had two point two yards per carry and that's 218 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: the second lowest per carry average of dear Denver was 219 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: the lowest. That was point nine, where I think he 220 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 1: had like teens carries for teens yardage. I mean that 221 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: that was similar. I mean, they really couldn't get anything going. 222 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: And we talked to Zach Martin about that yesterday. He said, 223 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: you know, that's not a game we want to be 224 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: known as four if that makes any sense. No known 225 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: for it and they better pick it up. And really 226 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: that was the difference in that game. Yeah, they couldn't 227 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: get Zeke going and Adrian Peterson runs from ninety nine 228 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: yards tough ninety nine yards, but he got They had it. 229 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: I know they ran a lot and it wasn't like 230 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: they had a huge average, but they were persistent and 231 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: he was moving the chains with his runs for the 232 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 1: majority of the game. You cannot let that happen again. 233 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: But to Brian's point, offensively, and you might forget about this. 234 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 1: They scored twenty points in the game and Washington did 235 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: one twenty to seventeen one. I'm gonna turnover. Yes, So 236 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: you held their offense to thirteen points. Yes, and their 237 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: leading receiver was Bibbs four catches, forty three yards running. Yeah. 238 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: Jordan Read tied end their next leading receiver. So this 239 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: is gonna be the trick because I think what's gonna 240 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: happen when I've seen with Colton McCoy, he's gonna get 241 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: Jordan Reid and Jordan Reid involved. You know, when you 242 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: when they were playing down the stretch, it was Colton 243 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 1: McCoy trying to find Jordan Reid with football. I think 244 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: he had eleven targets, seven catches, So you know, I 245 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: don't guess Houston. Yes, I quite don't know what the 246 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: disconnect between Jordan Reid and and Alex Smith is, but 247 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: there is a more of a connection between, you know, 248 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 1: And I think Colt McCoy understands, like, Okay, this guy's 249 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: a mismatch player, and usually like that, you're not gonna 250 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: be able to put your best player on him coverage wise. 251 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: So I would definitely keep an eye on that one 252 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: tomorrow as it gets down to where, Okay, it's they 253 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: eat third down conversions, maybe not so much, you know, 254 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: trying to find Michael Floyd is another one that they 255 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 1: kind of go to in some certain situations. But I 256 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 1: think Jordan Reid is going to be a real key 257 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 1: in this football game for the Redskins tomorrow, and how 258 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: the Cowboys play him with Jeff Heath, we'll tell you 259 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: a lot of how the direction of the game's probably 260 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: gonna go. And that's kind of what they did this 261 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: past week in Atlanta on Jeff Heath matching up on Hooper. 262 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: Most of the time, and then when they zoned, the 263 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: guy was wide open. And it seems like when they 264 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: go zone on those tight ends, they don't do a 265 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: good job of covering them. So yeah, that's gonna be significant. 266 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: And again from this defensive standpoint for the Cowboys, all 267 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: they gotta do is turn on the game from twenty 268 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: fourteen and see this guy come in here and complete 269 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: twenty five or thirty passes for two hundred ninety nine yards. Yeah, 270 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: and beat them in overtime by that famous score of 271 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: twenty to seventeen. Yeah. How did I wonder how many 272 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: times Cowboys Redskins and it's been twenty seventeen. It seems 273 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: like every time you turn around you see a twenty 274 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: seven two pretty evenly matched teams. If you look at 275 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 1: what they want to do, you know, what how they 276 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: want to play. You know, now where the Redskins they're 277 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: compromised with their offensive line, that's gonna be that's gonna 278 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: be a problem for them in this game. You know, 279 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: especially with the way that Dallas's defensive front has played 280 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. You know, I could see, 281 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: you know, the Washington Redskins offensive line in that last 282 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: matchup did a really nice job, you know. Trent Williams 283 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: as he list is limited again, Yes, he's been limited limited, 284 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: But the last thing I read from up there is 285 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: they were a little leery of him being able to go, 286 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: along with Jamison Crowder. Yeah, and Chris Thompson. That that's 287 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: three big players right there that you know, and and 288 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: those and those guys. Matter of fact, Thompson and Crowder 289 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: did not play the last time. That's why Bibbs has 290 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: been getting some opportunities behind Adrian Pearson. But yeah, Jonathan Cooper, 291 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: we all remember Jonathan Cooper. He's he's your star left 292 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: guard for the Redskins. So let's see if you know 293 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: the fact that you know, Collins and Crawford when he 294 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: jumps in there and Ross and those guys could take 295 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: it a little bit of advantage of a guy. I mean, 296 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: he's not played terribly, but take advantage of him, you know. 297 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: And these and these injury reports on the short week 298 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: sometimes they're kind of misleading. But Crowder and Thompson did 299 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: not practice on Monday, and two think they're going to play. 300 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: And then uh, Quinton Dunbar was also another guy. Now 301 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: he's been limited along with Trent Williams. So we'll see 302 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: where those end up when we get the final designate. 303 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: They have a new edition though, since the last time 304 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: these two teams met, though was with Clinton Clinton Dicks 305 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: is playing, Yeah, and so now they have a little 306 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 1: bit more stability. And we remember what DJ Sweringer did 307 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: in this game. You know, he's a guy kind of 308 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: gets under your skin. You know, you remember him with 309 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: the with the quarterback sneak, lays the shoulder in there, 310 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 1: it gets the fumble. You know, you gotta be always 311 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: gotta be alert of him. You gotta be alert two 312 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: of these of Josh Norman punching balls loose. You know 313 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 1: this is he really doesn't want to tackle you. He 314 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: would rather try and knock the ball loose more than 315 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,680 Speaker 1: he would tackle you. So kind of keep an eye 316 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 1: on those things. What was the big thing the big 317 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: thing last year in the game our last year, but 318 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 1: this year the first time they played the turnovers though, Yeah, 319 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: you know that was the thing that was killer for 320 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 1: the Cowboy. What think cowboys have two or three? I 321 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: think it was two two and one touchdown a touchdown 322 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,719 Speaker 1: and then they kicked the field gold off the uh 323 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: oh no, wait, they held they held after the because 324 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks down quarterback quarterback snake. Yeah, yeah, so they 325 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: you know, when Dallas doesn't turn over the ball, they're 326 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: gonna win.

There's time to join us. Eight five, two 395 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: nine sevens the number we're doing abbreviated preview of the game. 396 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: Will come back from our final break and make our predictions. 397 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: UM one. One guy of note who was not in 398 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: the first meeting on October twenty first Amari Cooper. Yeah. Now, 399 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: against Atlanta, he's been a very effective for the amount 400 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: of time he's been in this system. Targeted five times 401 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: against the Falcons, though three catches for thirty six yards. 402 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 1: What did you see defensively Atlanta doing against him? And 403 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 1: how do they try to get him going a little 404 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: bit in this game? Yeah, well that Anta though, which 405 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 1: was really funny. Though he did draw some double coverage 406 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: in this game, you know, And and that's what I 407 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: was kind of worried that, like, Okay, how they're going 408 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: to handle him the slants, the things, you know that 409 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: he's really good at running those inside routes and stuff 410 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,919 Speaker 1: where they where they're able to make some Hay was 411 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: on the outside, you know. And then and that's kind 412 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: of where I felt like the Prescott missed him a 413 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,120 Speaker 1: couple of times, just the throw not not didn't see 414 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: him and stuff like that. But uh, you know, the 415 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: Redskins are gonna have to make a decision here though 416 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: with what they want to do because they struggle at 417 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: that cornerback spot, you know. And Mickey brought up about 418 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: Quentin Dunbar and then you know, Fabian Moreau played in 419 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: the game. You know, we as Greg Stroman is a rookie. 420 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: He's the one that got beat by h by Michael 421 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: Gallop on the double move. So you know, they've had 422 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: some issues having to try and cover some guys, as 423 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: Danny Johnson has been involved as well. So I think 424 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 1: that I think that that if they they they you know, 425 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,360 Speaker 1: they've they've also got to think about the running game. 426 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: They also go think about the cabis. But they might 427 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: feel like that they can hold up in the running 428 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: game with their front you know, with that front seven, 429 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 1: they can hold up at the front seven. Then all 430 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,199 Speaker 1: of a sudden, now they can do some things on 431 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 1: the back end where you can see DJ Sweringer and haha, 432 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: Clinton Dix, you know, kind of shade that way. Now, okay, 433 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: if they shade do things that way. Okay, here you go, 434 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,479 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley, here you go. Uh you know, Michael Gallop, 435 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: here you go. You know Michael Gallup. By the way, 436 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup saw him this morning here, so he's going 437 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 1: to be here at practice today and so you know, 438 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: that's that's a good sign. A matter of fact, I 439 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 1: was walking by and Zach Martin game a big hug. 440 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: So he's back in the fold and then in practice 441 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,239 Speaker 1: in the day and then they'll go from there. So 442 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: but yeah, the but it will open up some other 443 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: things if if they in fact have to shade safeties. 444 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 1: One way or another, or shade linebackers one way or another. 445 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: We've seen how that opens things up for the other guys. 446 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley, Gallop, Hearns. I think they're gonna limit it. 447 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 1: Like we said, you guys have asked them to do it, 448 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 1: and they have limit this group. If these guys one 449 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: or two catches each, that's okay. But that but getting 450 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: I think, getting getting this guy going, getting Cooper going 451 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 1: in this game. This could be one of those seven 452 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,719 Speaker 1: or eight for ninety one hundred yards. He's capable of 453 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: putting a hurt on this guys if you can get 454 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: the protection and then get the ball out to him. 455 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: And you know, and that's what happened with Atlanta. You know, 456 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: they started shading the linebacker over there, and it's like, okay, now, 457 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: well what about Beasley or what about the running game? 458 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 1: Or what if you're shading a linebacker over to Cooper 459 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: and they throw a screen pass the other side. Yeah, 460 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 1: and those are the things that you know, you have 461 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: to take advantage of if they want to do that. 462 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: And it's not like see and I think people get 463 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: a misconception of what that means of shading the linebacker. 464 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: It's not like he's over there, but he takes a 465 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 1: couple steps. Yeah, And the one thing I've learned over 466 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: the years is just a couple steps in the wrong direction. 467 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: How you line up as a safety or a linebacker 468 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,719 Speaker 1: can be the difference of the play going thirty yards 469 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: or you know, you stopping it because you were in 470 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: the right spot lined up two yards means a lot. Yeah, 471 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 1: look at the play that Cole Beasley and I broke 472 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: it down on Dallas Cowboys dot Com. The linebacker for 473 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 1: the Falcons actually was in the middle of the field 474 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: and then the space opened up and then he took 475 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: a step or two to adjust to Dak as Dak 476 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: drifted in the pocket. What happened had opened the area 477 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: opened up to the left to him where Dak was 478 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 1: able to touch pass it over to him. So yeah, 479 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: I mean Mickey's right, just a little bit of movement 480 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: or or where they line up, it goes a long 481 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: way to how you're able to complete some of these passes. 482 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: And Dak spoke to that after the game in terms 483 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: of what did he say, favorable boxes they're seeing in 484 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: the running game, specifically for Zeke with Cooper's presence alone 485 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 1: being there, whether or not, he's a huge factor. Or 486 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: he can light these guys up if they get this 487 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 1: thing going. He's capable of doing that, no question, one 488 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: way or another. You know. And and maybe they think 489 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: at their defensive front, those University of Alabama can hold 490 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 1: up yeah, and allow the linebacker to cheat. So at 491 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: some point you got to be able to block those guys. 492 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: And they ruined a lot in that first game. But 493 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: yet you were kicking a field goal as time ran 494 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: out to try to send the game into overtime. Yes, 495 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:23,719 Speaker 1: the old snap in fraction. Yes. Now. Zack Martin had 496 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: this quote yesterday. Yeah, there we go. Yeah, don't get 497 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: him started. Don't get him started him up. Should have 498 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: wore my white hat today. You know it's time. You're 499 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: pissed off about today? No, because there was no game 500 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 1: last night. Okay, good, and hopefully there'll be no all 501 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 1: star officiating crew out there either. Okay, speaking of the 502 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 1: line battle up front, Zach Martin, I love Zach Martin's 503 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: quote yesterday. He said, this is a bone on bone game. Yeah. 504 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: They put a lot of picks into their front on defense. 505 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: We put a lot of picks into our front on offense. 506 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: It's a huge game for us, and we're just looking 507 00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 1: forward to Thursday. I think, you know, they obviously want 508 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: to have a better show than they had in the game. 509 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: And you wrote about his particular matchup against a Ron 510 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: Payne in the first meeting. He held his own, he 511 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,360 Speaker 1: held his own more. And you know with pain, they 512 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 1: they you know, Pain and Alan both. You know, going 513 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: against Sack Martin is not an easy thing for any 514 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,959 Speaker 1: defensive lineman to have to deal with. And that's a 515 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 1: tough one man. That is a that's a that's as 516 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: tough as it gets for both those guys. So yeah, 517 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: you know, you don't so much worry about Zack Martin, 518 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,719 Speaker 1: you know, but okay, Joe Looney, Okay, Suafilo. You know, 519 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 1: let's let's see how things hold up. You know, Dallas 520 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 1: got they badly. They were the things that as far 521 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: as pass protection, the twist stunts and things like that 522 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: was a big problem for them, and that, you know, 523 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,120 Speaker 1: and we go back to oh was it the communication? 524 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: Was it a rookie left guard? Well, you know all 525 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,160 Speaker 1: these things. You know, they did a much better job 526 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: of handling all that stuff when they play these home games. 527 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: But they've done a much better job of handling it 528 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 1: here the last couple of weeks. You just can't allow 529 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: Preston Smith and and Ryan Carrigan and those guys to 530 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 1: twist with those defensive lineman and allow it to disrupt 531 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: how I mean, that's that's really the end of the game. 532 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 1: The other day was the fact that Ryan Kerrigan was 533 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: kind of wait and wait and waiting and came on 534 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: a blitz, you know, and it was off a really 535 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,479 Speaker 1: off a twist stunt. So yeah, it's it is. He's right, 536 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: it's a bone on bone game just because of how 537 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: big they're in inside and how athletic they're on the edge. 538 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 1: And if Dallas wins this game, it's gonna be because 539 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: of their offensive line. It's gonna be because they were 540 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: able to establish things up front running the football and 541 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: then Mike Mickey likes him to do protect. Give Dak 542 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 1: Prescott some time. You give Dak Prescott some time in 543 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 1: this game, I guarantee you he will make some completions. 544 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: But it's just it's gonna be them upfront doing their jobs. 545 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: All right, Let's take our final break when we come back, 546 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: predictions and picks to click. Let's have a drum roll, 547 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: Let's do it next, I'll talk cowboys.

But that's the 658 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 1: one that I remember where I was, Yeah, when it happened. No, 659 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: I was. I was at my grandma's house watching the game, 660 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: and I just remember exactly where I was standing when 661 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: it happened. Like what, But look, they went on to 662 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: win the super Bowl that year. It wasn't that big 663 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 1: a deal, right, and and we lovely on. So but 664 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: that's I mean, that's kind of this this series. There's 665 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: there's been so many great moments, so many crazy moments 666 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:09,240 Speaker 1: in it. I have several. It's hard to pick just one. 667 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 1: That one, for sure, Uh, the twenty seven to nothing 668 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 1: beating in eighty nine that began the Bounty Bowl. Yeah, Philadelphia. Yeah, 669 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: would Jimmy, as they said, did Jimmy, did you say 670 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 1: anything to Buddy when you when you kind of got 671 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,399 Speaker 1: the idea they were going after your quarterback and your 672 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 1: kicker and they were gonna pay bonuses for it, and 673 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: he goes, I would have, but he got his big 674 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,479 Speaker 1: fat rear end in the locker room. He didn't stay 675 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: on the field. Yeah. Famous line ever, right right up 676 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 1: there with the vic triumph of the uncluttered mind in 677 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:48,239 Speaker 1: seventy four, would Clint Long? Clint Long? And that I 678 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 1: wasn't here for that, so but I probably was for 679 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: all fifty eight minutes of the game. Yeah. I was 680 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,320 Speaker 1: there eleven years old. I was there with my grandmother 681 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 1: at the in the seats watching that. And I have 682 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,760 Speaker 1: not left a sporting event early since. I just that 683 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 1: that scarred me forever. But you know, I think about 684 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 1: and I was a part of a game too, where 685 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: like I say, we're Jason Garrett. You know we in 686 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 1: Green Bay, we had not had any success playing the 687 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys in the nineties none, you know, I mean we 688 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: had and we had decent teams. We playoff teams, the 689 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: super Bowl team, but we never had really any success 690 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: playing the Cowboys. And we thought, okay, here they're so 691 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: banged up at quarterback that they're playing Jason Garrett. No, 692 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 1: Troy Rodney Pete no. Yeah, And you guys got five 693 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: when you were at the front off exactly, and I 694 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: scored thirty one points, yeah, exactly. And we're sitting there thinking, 695 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: We're sitting there thinking, this is the one time that 696 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna get Dallas. This is the one time, and 697 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: you know, we just did not. I mean, it was 698 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 1: just awful. I mean Garrett, every time he dropped back 699 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: and threw the ball, it was going down the field 700 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: and it was you know, Alvin Harber, these guys were 701 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: making incredible play. So for three hundred and eleven years. Yes, 702 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: and I'll there forget on the bus ride home, you know, 703 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,399 Speaker 1: to the airport, ron Wolf goes. We just got beat 704 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 1: by a sound Lot quarterback. You know, but that Samlot 705 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: quarterback played great. I did some good things he did 706 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,720 Speaker 1: the second half. It was a struggle the first half, 707 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,399 Speaker 1: but he did. He held in there. But I've coming 708 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: back and forth. I mean, they played the Redskins a 709 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: lot on Thanksgiving half and I and I there's been 710 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: some great back in the seven. There were some great 711 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,399 Speaker 1: Redskinned Cowboy games in the seventies. But the one that's 712 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: the most memorable, of course, like you just said, was 713 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,799 Speaker 1: the Long League game. It's probably the most memorable Thanksgiving 714 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,439 Speaker 1: Day game, don't you think, Well it was on thanks 715 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: Me Day game that Randy Moss lift this team up. Yes, yes, yeah, 716 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: that was kind of the breaking out of Randy Mowboys 717 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 1: most memorable game. That was the one where he goes, oh, 718 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna take that guy, maybe because that had them. 719 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: Had the Redskins won that game in seventy four, they 720 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 1: were going to automatically qualify for the playoffs. Right. They 721 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 1: were eight and three. I just looked it up. The 722 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 1: only reason I remember this. And the Cowboys were seven 723 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 1: two and one, So the Cowboys really needed to win 724 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 1: that game. And they had just traded Craig Morton to 725 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,319 Speaker 1: the Giants, right, so the backup was Longley, who had 726 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: not played in a game. And then there was the 727 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 1: famous quote from Dirn Tilbert before the game, and imagine 728 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: this happening today. He says, all we need to do 729 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 1: is knock starback out of the game. That's our goal, 730 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: because if we get him out, all they got is 731 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: that rookie. Yeah. Imagine somebody saying that our our number 732 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:31,359 Speaker 1: one goal tomorrow is to knock uh Colt McCoy out 733 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 1: of the game. That would be sirens would be going 734 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: off in New York, right, fines would be levied. And 735 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: and so they knocked him out with a concussion in 736 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 1: the third quarter, and that's incomes longly and leads them 737 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: to three touchdowns the last fifty yard or to Drew Pearson. 738 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 1: That's right, all right. They didn't have replays on TV back, 739 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: no no YouTube back there. You know, I had to 740 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,479 Speaker 1: catch it on the channel late news, you know, something 741 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 1: like that. Or it was because our Monday Night football 742 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 1: was the only highlights you ever got. Back then. You 743 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: never got, you know, the big highlight package. It was 744 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 1: only on Monday Night football at halftime did Howard Cosell 745 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 1: went through And that's really when you got your kind 746 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 1: of your little highlights. And it was only like one 747 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: or two plays that was it. Things have changed, you 748 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: know what the best thing of these Thanksgiving Day games 749 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 1: were when I was growing up is that we'd be 750 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 1: at my aunt's house in the basement. You know, there'd 751 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 1: be twenty five people there, and when you had finished eating, 752 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 1: it's like, I'm going up and watch the games. Yeah, 753 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 1: and everybody's like, where Mickey go And it's like, oh, 754 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: that's okay, he can go up and watch the games. 755 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: And then my uncles would come up there, right yeah, 756 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 1: and they'd fall asleep, but they would use the excuse 757 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: that they were coming up there to keep me company. Hey, 758 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: everybody's got a sneak in some football, right, that's right? 759 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 1: All right, I missed my liner Kabu Texas May ten 760 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,919 Speaker 1: through twelve. Check it out. It'll be great at at 761 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 1: and T Stadium. All right, we got less than five 762 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 1: minutes In the show predictions piece of Cake Picks to Click. 763 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 1: I'll start with Mickey, which do you want first? Give 764 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 1: me your prediction Cowboys twenty four twenty. And if that 765 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: sounds easy, it's not gonna be. Um. I'm thinking a 766 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 1: drive for the winning touchdown at the end. About that 767 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: another one from Dak Prescott, Yes, kicking no kick in 768 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 1: a field goal to tie it up, score that touchdown 769 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 1: and win at twenty four twenty. In my pick to 770 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 1: click is going to be d law m. He's gonna 771 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 1: be on a ramp page a couple of sacks. Had 772 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 1: a sack and a half last week, right, yeah, last 773 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,720 Speaker 1: week three days ago Brian brought us. I like Mickey's 774 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 1: idea here, but I'm also gonna go I'm gonna go big. 775 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 1: I think Dallas wins this one thirty one seventeen. Who Yeah, 776 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: I think so. I think that I think Dallas has 777 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: got a lot of momentium of this coming into this game. 778 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: I think they realized, both teams realize what's on the line. 779 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,879 Speaker 1: But I think Dallas is you know, they fought, They've 780 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: had to fight back, and Washington's in a little bit 781 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 1: of a bad place right now. So with a backup quarterback, 782 00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: he's very capable of. I think Dallas gets it done offensively. 783 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: I think they're blocked the front. I think they win 784 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: this game thirty one seventeen. My guy to click in 785 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,919 Speaker 1: this game is it's a big responsibility. But Jeff Heath 786 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,359 Speaker 1: is gonna have to cover Jordan Read in this game. 787 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: Watch Jeff Heath and his ability to play against Jordan 788 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: Read if they keep him minimum on the stat sheet though, 789 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 1: big win for the Cowboys, all right, y'all said twenty seven, 790 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 1: it always twenty seventeen. I'll go with twenty seventeen again, Cowboys. 791 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:25,720 Speaker 1: I'm with you, Brian. I'm going with the hot hand theory. 792 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,840 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliot's might pick to click. They found something in 793 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 1: the running game. They're gonna have to do that if 794 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 1: they're gonna win this game again at three in a 795 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 1: row and avenge the one on October twenty first as 796 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 1: well clicking, who's clicking clicking? I'm going with Zeke. Yeah, 797 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 1: and then there. It's not gonna be easy. I mean, 798 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,359 Speaker 1: this is all I'm no. I think it's gonna be easy. 799 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 1: You think so. I'm just saying so because I'm taking 800 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: the approach like last week, I thought, okay, shootout game, 801 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,800 Speaker 1: and it didn't do it shootout game, and so you're thinking, okay, 802 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,719 Speaker 1: tight tough, you know. I think Dallas's offensive line, I 803 00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: could say, I think they're in a good place right now. 804 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 1: I do I do we have about Bill Jones writing 805 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,399 Speaker 1: Vote Vote, He's still covering the Beltrade News. I think 806 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 1: he's he's a busy man. Especially hey, especially if Zeke's 807 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: wearing the long sleeves on Thursday, open that roof up. 808 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 1: I'm here. I'm hearing some. I'm hearing some. I'm hearing 809 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 1: some talk. They might be opened that roof up. It's 810 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 1: gonna be sixty degrees. Yeah, as long as it's not raining, 811 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 1: I think that's sucker up. There you go.
