Yeah, 46 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 1: and just a great conversation. We were talking about the 47 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: Bears preview and the Bears gave some predictions, talked about, uh, 48 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: you know what was going through George Teague's mind before 49 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: he knocked Terrell Owens his block off for for trying 50 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: to you know, disrespect the start at the at the 51 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,119 Speaker 1: fifty yard line. And for those some of the younger 52 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: listeners in view of the show, do yourself a favor 53 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: and YouTube that YouTube that so you can get some 54 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: of the some of the better parts of Cowboys history appreciated. 55 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 1: Get it all up in your veins what George Tigue 56 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: was able to do and represent in the star in 57 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: that game against San Francisco, that legendary game against San 58 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: Francisco that went on to be Emmett Smith's you know 59 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: passing of Sweetness as far as the all time NFL rushers. 60 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: So a lot of great history went on in that game. 61 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: George t talked about that, and again we talked about 62 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: the Bears, state of the Cowboys outlook, so forth and 63 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: so on. So fantastic show with Kevin Gray, the legends, 64 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: George Tigue and Big Nate. And the cool thing about 65 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: that is the timeliness of it too, because today October 66 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: twenty seventh, correct, it's the twentieth anniversary of when Emmett 67 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: Smith passed Walter Payton for the all time NFL's rushing record. 68 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: Of course, the Bradsham call move over Sweetness make place 69 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: for Emmett became famous in this day because of what 70 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: Emmett Smith did, and a lot of people have been 71 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: talking about it, at least in the press conferences, and 72 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure there will be stories on every media outlet today. 73 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: There'll probably be an Instagram post and Twitter post about it, 74 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: just because it's the twentieth anniversary of when twenty two 75 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: became number one. But with that being said, is that 76 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: something that will ever be surpassed? You think? Do you 77 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: think that's something that could be caught one hundred and 78 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: sixty four touchdowns, not to mention the amount of yards 79 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: that he put up as well. I mean, it's pretty unbelievable, 80 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy said, at least in the way the things 81 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: are built now, and and of course with the the 82 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: new importance put on player safety, he doesn't see it happening, 83 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: especially with the way the running backs are used now. Now. Yeah, 84 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 1: I don't know what Matt happened in the next decade, 85 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: but yeah, this this style of play that's currently going 86 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: on in the NFL right now, to just throw it 87 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: around type era that we're in, I don't see it 88 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: happening for sure, but that may change, you know, maybe 89 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: there's the next generation comes in and they want to 90 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: go back to the wing t. I don't know, but 91 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: we spoke about it a couple of weeks ago. Everything 92 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: is clical, so i'd say never say never. You know 93 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: what it would take to achieve that, obviously would be monumental. 94 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: You'd have to get a generational talent with a generational 95 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: front and you know, offensive line in front of them 96 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: and an elite quarterback behind them that keeps supposing defenses 97 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: from being able to stack the box. And you got 98 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: to have the perfect storm, and that's basically what it 99 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: was for the Cowboys offense back in the day. It 100 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: was the perfect storm. It was a generational arm in 101 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: Troy Acron, a generational legs, and durability in Emma Smith, 102 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,919 Speaker 1: which again durability being a keyword there, you're not wrong. 103 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: And then you're talking about a generational offensive line. So 104 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: can it happen again, Yes, never say never, but it 105 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: would have to be in the point of the cycle, 106 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: and that might not be for another ten, twenty thirty years. 107 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: We see how it goes. It has to come back 108 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: to run first, but we're kind of slowly getting there. 109 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: We talked about the defenses are starting to shut down 110 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 1: that pass all over the field type offense, so they're 111 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: becoming fewer and far in between. So never say never, 112 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: but until it happens, the King lives in Dallas. We'll 113 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: talk about fourteen NFL seasons. Eight of them were Pro Bowls, 114 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: four first team All Pro, two second team All Pro, 115 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: four time rushing leader. He did it four times. He 116 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: did it with the span of five seasons. That's unbelievable. 117 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: I mean the numbers. Growing up, Immett was was an idol. 118 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: Everybody that liked the Cowboys. Emmett was the dude, and 119 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: just when you go back and look at how incredibly 120 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: durable and how incredibly talented he was, it really is impressive. 121 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: Eighteen thousand, three hundred and fifty five yards is his 122 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: ending total and that stands above anybody all time in 123 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: the NFL. So one of the at least touch that 124 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: since it is the twentieth anniversary today. But Patrick, what's 125 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: some news and notes? What's going on with the Cowboys 126 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: talking about durability and Ezekie, I'm sorry, um, Emmett Smith 127 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: south of Emma Smith with it, you know, playing through 128 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: the shoulder issues. We're going to use that to segway 129 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: right into the injury report. WWRD what would Rob do? Um? 130 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: And we had? What first? Let's leave with Zeke. That's 131 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: why I got my running backs mixed up there. Ezekiel Elliott, 132 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: as expected, did not practice on Wednesday. And I say 133 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: as expected because Mike McCarthy already gave the heads up 134 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: on that and yesterday's press conference saying that he was 135 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: going to be exclusively working with Britt Brown and the 136 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: rehab group working on that knee, and the Cowboys and 137 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy labeled it a nice sprain. Ezekiel Elliott himself 138 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: after the game labeled a knee contusion. Uh, let's just 139 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: call it a nice sprain with possibly a thigh bruise 140 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: or a knee bruise. The way that Detroit was tackling, 141 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: I would believe that they were going low fly and 142 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: they paid for because he came back in the game 143 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: and he humiliated a human being. The next human being 144 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: who went at his legs, he protected us. He's now 145 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: a poster so Ezekiel Elliott not unexpected. We'll see if 146 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: he practices at all this week. He did make it 147 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: clear that will not make it clear, but he did 148 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: intimate that it would be a late week decision. It'll 149 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: be a group decision between Zeke, the coaching staff, and 150 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: the medical staff, but we won't probably won't know his 151 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: game status until later this week. He did state that 152 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: he did not have to practice to play, though, and 153 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: I believe that similar to Michael Parsons when Michael was 154 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: dealing with a growing injury and I said, hey, I'd 155 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: like to see DMP D and p DMP because he's 156 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: able to go out there and get the job done. 157 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: So keep an eye on Zeke. We had a couple 158 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: of surprises though. Noah Brown did not participate on Wednesday 159 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: with a foot injury that seemingly happened at some point 160 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: in the game, I would say, because there's been no 161 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: practice between Sunday and yesterday, so something to keep an 162 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: eye on there. Another one who did not practice that 163 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: was unexpected is safety Malik Hooker. That's also a key 164 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 1: player because he's the green dot guy for Dan Quinn 165 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: and helping to communicate the defensive play calls to the 166 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: unit on the field. So Noah Brown, Malik Hooker, keep 167 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 1: an eye on those going forward, key players on both 168 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: sides of the ball. Dalton Shows was limited, Terrence Steele 169 00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: a little bit of a question mark. He was limited, 170 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: but looked like there's too much concern with either of 171 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: those shows obviously still battling that pcos poring. Yeah, and 172 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: you look at Malie Cooker only had thirty snaps. He 173 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: was kind of limited to the back half of the 174 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: game and there was a lot of different packages where 175 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: he was unavailable and they kind of switched out a thought. 176 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: So there were a couple times where Donovan Wilson would 177 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: fill in and he would go back as the free 178 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: and then kurtse could come in and still play that 179 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 1: box safety. So that's the benefit of having three guys 180 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: there that whenever Hooker's out, they have some at least 181 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: mixing and matching that they could do. But I want 182 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: to go back to the offensive side since today, of course, 183 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: on every Thursday, we talk about the Cowboys offensive matchup 184 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: with their opponent's defense, and the Bears are, of course 185 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: that opponent coming up on Sunday. How much can Tony 186 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: Pollard handle by himself? How much is your convert Where 187 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: is your confidence level with Tony Pollard and how he 188 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: could handle a workload if Ezekiel Elliot's not available to 189 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: go because there's conflicting reports at the moment, Zeke and 190 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: the coaching staffs don't worry. A lot of people around 191 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: the staff and at least around the media are saying 192 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: he's not expected to play. But where would your confidence 193 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: lie on Pollard? I have confidence that he can carry 194 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 1: himself through a game. I just don't want to put 195 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: that pressure on him. I don't want to physically beat 196 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: down Tony Pollard is kid, but can he handle it? Absolutely? 197 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: I worry more about TP when it comes to the 198 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: passing to the past blocking and his ability to be 199 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: able to sit back there and take online backers and 200 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: you know, occasionally defensive ends. But in terms of his 201 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: ability to run the ball and tote the thing, especially 202 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: against his Bears front, I don't see a problem with him. 203 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: I mean, the Bears at the bottom of the league 204 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: in terms of their ability to stop the run. They've 205 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: given up the most yards and tied for most yards 206 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: in the league and if you get up the most touchdown. 207 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,839 Speaker 1: So I think if there's ever a game in which 208 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 1: TP can handle, it will be against against these guys. Well, 209 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: Tony said, if they call it, I can haul it. 210 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: Oh okay. So he sounds like he's ready. He's ready 211 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: for almost a full workload. And obviously the Cowboys would 212 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: spell him with Malite Davis, who they likely elevate from 213 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: the practice squad. They have two more elevations I believe, 214 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: at least one on Leak Davis, so it wouldn't be 215 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: a one workload for Tony Pollard. But it does sound 216 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: like he's completely ready and up to the task. I 217 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: would say this, go ahead and unleash them if you 218 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: need to. If Zeke doesn't play for whatever reason, or 219 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: not for whatever reason. But if he doesn't play because 220 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 1: of the neat issue, uh, you have the bye week 221 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: coming up, you know, so use Tony Pollard to really 222 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: do some damage in that run game, because you got 223 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,559 Speaker 1: you got two weeks after that for him to rest 224 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: and kind of recover, get in the ice bath a 225 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: few times. This is really similar to last year. Last 226 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,559 Speaker 1: year when Zeke sustained the PCL was a week before 227 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: the bye week, right, or it was a little bit earlier, 228 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: but they could have utilized the bye week as like 229 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: an extra as an extra week to get As soon 230 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: as he said that, I thought about the same thing 231 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: because we had this conversation last year about Zeke and 232 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: they didn't do it. They played him, they let him go, 233 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,599 Speaker 1: and they camped the rest of the year and he 234 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: didn't healthy. And those who do not learned from the 235 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: past to repeated the type thing. So this would in 236 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 1: fact be a good week to rest Zeke and let 237 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: that knee kind of heal up and feel better because 238 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: you got Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay at Lambo on 239 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: the other side of this bye week. Tony Pollard, Mallie Davis. 240 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: I believe that they can get the job done against 241 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears run defense. Now, as a whole, the 242 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears defense is not as bad as right as 243 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 1: the Lions or as you would like to believe. It's 244 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: the run defense that's really bad. Their past defense not 245 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: so bad. So that's something to keep an eye on. 246 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, if if I'm kelling Moore and Mike McCarthy, 247 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 1: if Zeke can't go, yeah, I'm just letting the route 248 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: with Tony Pollard and then you spelling Malie Davis says. 249 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 1: And it's a little easier to run against that defense 250 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: now too. Why is that because Robert Quinn is no 251 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: longer in Chicago? What happened to Quinn? Where did he? Well? 252 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: See what happened was Howie Roseman on Tuesday didn't take 253 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: a liking to the Cowboys trading for Jonathan Hankin, so 254 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: he said, okay, up yet, I'll go ahead and get 255 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: Robert Quinn. And you know the Eagles acquired Robert Quinn 256 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: on And where where is Howie Roseman? Where is he 257 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: the general manager Philadelphia? Oh, that's right, the Eagles. Yeah, 258 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: those goes. So they go and get an edge rusher. 259 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: The Eagles do they trade a fourth round pick to 260 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: go get Robert Quinn. Robert Quinn, who this year has 261 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: been underwhelming to a certain extent. There's a bit of 262 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 1: a change of guard in terms of the defensive system 263 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: in Chicago. Hasn't been utilized the same way as he 264 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 1: was last year. How did he do last year? He 265 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: had eighteen and a half sat in the ball in 266 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty one campaign. Yeah, so this year 267 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: he only has one, but he's played. Okay, systems matter. 268 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: Systems matter, they absolutely do. And Dallas drew draw two. 269 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: They were like draw four and they stacked it. Yeah. Yeah, 270 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: So Robert Quinn, he's got a It's kind of a 271 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: volletole trade because it could either turn into Chicago twenty 272 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: twenty two Robert Quinn, or he could turn into Chicago 273 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one Robert Quinn hope, which hopefully it's the 274 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: first one that's hopefully it's the one that he showed 275 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: this year. What's a similar situation for him in that 276 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: because of the prowess of the youth, you know, Fletcher notwithstanding, 277 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: but he's still stout. Because of the depth and the 278 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: ability and the talent they have across the defensive line 279 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: for the Philadelphia Eagles. It's similar to Jonathan Hankins coming 280 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: into Dallas and that they're not going to ask Robert 281 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: Quinn to be a three down guy. They're going to 282 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: ask him to go in there primarily for a pass 283 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: rush for third downs and penning his ears bag and that's, 284 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: you know, theoretically should make him more effective because he'd 285 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: be more rested and more refreshed, kind of like what 286 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: we're expecting to see from Jonathan Hankins. That's a really 287 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: good point because a lot of people are looking at 288 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: Philly and it's like, Wow, all of their guys are 289 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: on the interior with Brandy Graham, Fletcher Cox, Jordan Davis. 290 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: They've got those guys up front, but on the edge, 291 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: they've got two healthy edge rushers right now, they're pretty 292 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: thin on the edge, where you could also say something 293 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: very similar to the Cowboys. Wow, they've got DeMarcus Lawrence 294 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: and Doran's Armstrong and of course that Michael Parson's cat 295 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: that comes off the second level two. I mean, they've 296 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: got guys on the edge, but they're light on the inside, 297 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: A little light for size wise, Yeah, for size wise, 298 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: there there light on the inside. Pass rush Osakis Neville 299 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: Gallimar Tristan Hill doesn't matter. But in terms of stopping 300 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: the run, it's Quentin Bohannah and hopefully Osa kind of 301 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: shows up. So now you've got Jonathan Hankins into that 302 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: fold too, So it is you're right, it's very similar. 303 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: But I mean, a higher quality player for a higher 304 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: price is what Philly paid for. Then Cowboys getting a 305 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: thirty year old defensive tackle for pretty much next to nothing. Yeah, 306 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: and so the Cowboys won't see Robert Quinn helping out 307 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears. But add another storyline to the Cowboys 308 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: versus the Eagles on December twenty fourth, as if there 309 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: was a shortage of storylines going into that game, add 310 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: another one, Yeah, the one? Why not? Why not? All right, 311 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: We've got a special guest on the line and we're 312 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: gonna get to them on the other side of the break. 313 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: You know them, you love them.

It really 407 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: all started as a dare you know, because I didn't 408 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: want anything to do with social media. I was just 409 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: so focused on playing football, so focused on the a gap. 410 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 1: You know, I'm a nose guard, so I'm there like, yeah, 411 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: go ahead, lands make the tack or whatever. Like I'm 412 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 1: just focused on football and that is it. And then, 413 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of my teammates was like, dude, 414 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: you are built for social media. But I couldn't see it. 415 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 1: I couldn't understand it. It was stupid to me. You 416 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: put together one hundred and twenty characters and people judge 417 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 1: you off of what you tweet. I was like, this 418 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: is the stupidest thing in the world. But I started 419 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: to understand how it worked because some of my teammates 420 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: would take me in the locker room or they'll take 421 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: me in the weight room, and then they'll post it 422 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: on their page and then they'll say, look at the 423 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: reaction that this is, like that's going on with this, 424 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,199 Speaker 1: And I'm like, this is just me just doing what 425 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,239 Speaker 1: I regularly do in the locker room and stuff like that, 426 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: and so I didn't understand it. But then I started 427 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 1: posting my own stuff and started getting a good reaction 428 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: to it, and I just I just kept at it, 429 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: and then before long I did the retirement video at 430 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: White Castle, and then everything just kind of took off 431 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 1: from there. Well, Spice, let me let me ask you 432 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: a question, because you're taking off, and you've already taken 433 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: off on social media, and now that everybody knows you, 434 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: let's let's talk about your bears for a second. Let's 435 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,719 Speaker 1: talk about how how good you're feeling or maybe not 436 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 1: so much. You love what you saw what they did 437 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: against Bill Belichick and those New England Patriots. Is that 438 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: enough to get your confidence up to level ten or 439 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: you know, you're still down at seven with some with 440 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,880 Speaker 1: some hope going on.

But he's even doing better things 505 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,360 Speaker 1: than what that number fifty two Khalil Mack was doing 506 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: early in his career.

He can. 511 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: The only way you stop Michael Parsons is if he 512 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 1: decides he wants to stop himself. That's it. That's that 513 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: is the only He is a monster man. I love 514 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: his game. I love watching him.

So speaking of Michael and 520 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: speaking of you guys, run game, what's your thoughts on 521 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: when Justin Fields gets out of that backfield and he's 522 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: trying to escape Michael. You think he can do that 523 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 1: or you think Michael's uh gonna finish. No, No, that's 524 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 1: the right answer. What I think. What I think when 525 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: when he backs up three step, five step, a hundred step, 526 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: he better know where eleven is at all time. There's 527 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: the science. He better keep his head on a swill. 528 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: If you see two number one. He needs to throw 529 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 1: the ball, get rid of the ball, or just be 530 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: like here, He's not gonna be expecting you to throw 531 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 1: the ball right here. He's gonna be startled. That's what 532 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: I would. That's how you stop Mica quarterback. Throw the 533 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 1: ball as hard as you can face. He gonna be startled. 534 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 1: That's how you do it. Play how potato basically, so, hey, 535 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: you gotta throw it like Uncle Rico. See you throw 536 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: it right here at the sternalm So then like he 537 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: could lose his breath because he's gonna be he's gonna 538 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 1: be like, well, he's gonna be startled, but then he's 539 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: gonna lose a little bit of breath. Because it's right 540 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: here on the sternalm that's on the way you stopped. 541 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: So so, fellow Penn State grad you played, you were 542 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: drafted back in two thousand and three, second round pick. 543 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: I know, Penn States, it's that long ago, but you've 544 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: got this this tight knit group of guys that are 545 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: Nitney Lyons and guys that played for Penn State.

And even when I 553 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: went back to Penn State, they were always talking about him, 554 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: and I got a chance to talk to him on 555 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: the phone while he was you know, trying to figure 556 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: out ways how to manage his time and you know, 557 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: make sure that he is doing what he's supposed to 558 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: do in the classroom and things like that. And you know, 559 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: now seeing him blow up in the NFL, it was 560 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: just confirmation of what I already knew. Like I saw 561 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: how he talked I saw how he talked about his son. 562 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 1: I saw how he matured, and it's just great to 563 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: see him, you know, all over the league right now. 564 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: And you know, like I said, he's a terminator, man, 565 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: this dude is a cyber.

They got a beast to the back of 687 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,919 Speaker 1: this truck. All of a sudden, Jonathan Hanker, this came 688 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: up out of the dog, big boy. I'm ready to 689 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 1: stop the run. I'm too cow master that can tackle. 690 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,720 Speaker 1: See it with your chest? Nine yards? Nine of yards 691 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 1: are less Once he gets settled in, does he need 692 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 1: the arts are less? Yes? Rushing does he need? Does 693 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 1: he need a ramp up period later? Do you feel 694 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 1: good just throwing him in the man? I throw him 695 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 1: in there, okay. I look him straight as out like 696 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 1: I'm looking k y right now. Look at him. He 697 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 1: scared plays ten plays? Give me ten play yep, because 698 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,880 Speaker 1: because that's all he needed. Uh, the mess up of 699 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. If he Man, I don't ran ten and 700 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 1: run plays? No game. Man, Well, I'm through this thing 701 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 1: and now we eat all day long. We eat. From 702 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 1: that point one twenty yards were throwing per game. Whatever. 703 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 1: They asked him yesterday if he if he thinks he 704 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 1: could play on Sunday. He basically said yeah. He was like, well, 705 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,479 Speaker 1: first of all, this only Wednesday. He's like, but even still, 706 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 1: I feel like I have plenty of time to get 707 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: you know, my legs with just enough to get in 708 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: there on Sunday and make an impact ten plays. There 709 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,440 Speaker 1: you go again. We've mentioned it yesterday. This isn't like 710 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 1: a Jason Peter's ramp up he's been playing. He played 711 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: last week. Yep. So caught off the cold out of 712 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: the meat truck. Yeah, make it happen. That truck was rocking, man, 713 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:55,760 Speaker 1: I'm like this, who is back there? Hankers came about 714 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 1: it up, man, and then think about the truck tried 715 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 1: to take off and he two got you got the 716 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 1: trunk and both sides of hold on. I thought it's 717 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: about trying to run the rock. Yeah, yeah, we're ready 718 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: hit on in the show. But Robert Quinn gone, how 719 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 1: much better do you feel? Even though they were already 720 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 1: at the bottom of the league, even with Robert Quinn. 721 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 1: Now that he's gone, how much better do you feel 722 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 1: rushing the ball against his team? Well, what it does 723 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: is he has the ability to duplicate what has gave 724 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 1: our young left tackle problems and that speed just off 725 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 1: the edge. And uh, it's a young guy behind him, 726 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: Kyle you making look him up that they like and 727 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,479 Speaker 1: they want to put in there. And so they felt 728 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: talking about the Bears on the bars on the Bears 729 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: and defense man and they thought number ninety one, I 730 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 1: can't think of his name, but they put him in there. 731 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: They think that he's enough when you get rid of 732 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: a player because they planning uh Sarah still. So they 733 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 1: just wanted to stop him from blocking another young talent. Yeah, 734 00:39:56,040 --> 00:40:00,400 Speaker 1: so Dominique Robinson yeah, Miami OHIOA. Yeah, he was. I 735 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: was massive on him on the draft show. I didn't 736 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: even realize he was on this this roster. Yeah. So 737 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 1: the play they trying to talk about speed, he's speed off. 738 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: So you're saying they were removing a vetteran so that 739 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: the young guy can play. Because what I read is 740 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 1: they still gonna pay of this guy, sary, and so, uh, 741 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,879 Speaker 1: that was a no brainer for the Eagles. They gotta 742 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: pay seven seven hundred thousand dollars and they get a 743 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 1: speed rushing that they can add to their repertoire. He's 744 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 1: not he's gonna start. He's gonna be added to the repertoire. 745 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 1: So hey, we made a move, Like my man Patrick said, 746 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: we made a move. They made a move. Who's gonna 747 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 1: make the next move? I mean, this thing is getting 748 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: good and it's too bad. We're going into a breakoutter 749 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: we beat down these bags, beat down these bags. What's 750 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 1: your what's your prediction? Where do you think? What do 751 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 1: you think the predictions for this week? For us them 752 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 1: rushing or for us them scoring, we'll say we'll say 753 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 1: just general core prediction. Yeah, man, it's always gonna be 754 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 1: by one man. Thank you. Yeah, there he goes. They 755 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 1: always always a pleasure. My frien is a Chicago bear, 756 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:15,280 Speaker 1: a black bear, or brown beer. It's a brown ben codiac. 757 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 1: But it don't matter. Oh goodness, all right, like tobacco, 758 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,360 Speaker 1: chew it up, spit it out right, Yeah exactly, I 759 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: like it. Um. Wow, we've had a lot of fun. 760 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,919 Speaker 1: This has been fun and it's not a normal show, 761 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,279 Speaker 1: which is great. I like a little change up every 762 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: now and again, had Spice Adams on, had Nate Newton 763 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,959 Speaker 1: on I feel like we haven't even gotten the top. Great. 764 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 1: I love that. Now, just to wrap things up, biggest 765 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: concern for the Cowboys offense this week? What would it 766 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 1: be if there is a concern against the Bears defense, 767 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: Because really I'm looking at it and my concerns are 768 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 1: very little. I think this is the week the offense 769 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: gets back on track. I think they run the football 770 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:00,279 Speaker 1: effectively with or without Ezekiel Elliott, and I think Dak 771 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 1: Prescott find some open wide receivers too. I think this 772 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 1: is a big week for the guys on the outside. 773 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,239 Speaker 1: I've been saying that for the last I think maybe 774 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: two of the last four weeks. I've said that that 775 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 1: I think this is the week that that this gets 776 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 1: back on track. But I really do think this is 777 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 1: an opportunity for it. So what's your biggest concern at 778 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 1: the moment. Biggest concern and I'd say concern, I'd drop 779 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 1: the word biggest from it, but I'll say concern. That's 780 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 1: just going to be how quickly Dak Prescott in the 781 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 1: passing game can get going. Because we talked about it earlier, 782 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 1: or we spoke you know referenced it earlier. Run defense 783 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 1: for the Bears virtually non existent. Past defense most certainly 784 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: is there. You're going to have to account for Roquan Smith. 785 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 1: You gotta account for Eddie Jackson, who has I think 786 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 1: two or three interceptions already this season. That secondary can 787 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 1: take the ball away and Roquan Smith is not I 788 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 1: know this will go dogs. He's not only you know, 789 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:51,439 Speaker 1: downhill stop the run kind of guy. He can cover 790 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: as well. So if in fact it's the situation when 791 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 1: where Ezekiel Elliott can't go because of the knee and 792 00:42:58,239 --> 00:42:59,880 Speaker 1: they're going to rest him for the next couple of 793 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,279 Speaker 1: weeks going into the or going into the Green Bay game, 794 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: Tony Pollter, I believe he can get the job done 795 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 1: carrying the ball, but what's his past protection going to 796 00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,320 Speaker 1: look like in those packages where the Bears start to 797 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: really throw that extra guy at Dak Prescott. So not 798 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 1: a big concern, but most certainly a concern, and you're 799 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: better account for rule Kuan Smith early and often agreed. 800 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 1: I want to ensure that our team gets off to 801 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 1: that Dallas gets off to a really good start, that 802 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: they run the ball effectively, and that they don't get 803 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: behind for whatever reason, our defense allows them to get ahead. 804 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,359 Speaker 1: Because the reason simply being, we saw Dak last week. 805 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 1: He you know, didn't statistically didn't look bad, but we 806 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 1: feel as if he could have made some throws better. 807 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: He said he could have made some better throws. He 808 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 1: had made some errand throws. Overly confident, I don't want 809 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 1: him to be in a position right now where he 810 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 1: has to throw the ball thirty plus times in the game. 811 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,320 Speaker 1: Reason not only because he's still getting back acclimated with 812 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 1: this offense and getting his feet settled in, but also 813 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,919 Speaker 1: because this defense. Statistically, these guys take the ball away. 814 00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 1: To your point, they're tired. Fifth in the league in 815 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: terms of okay. Along with that, these guys have the 816 00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 1: third best pass defense in the league. So let's not 817 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,320 Speaker 1: act as if these guys can't play some dog on defense, 818 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 1: and let's not act like their rushing attack isn't solid. 819 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: They're they're a legitimate threat if if, if the structure 820 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 1: of the game is in there is in their favor. 821 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 1: So let's not put ourselves in a position where we're behind, 822 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: we're having to pass against one of the better pass 823 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: defense in the league, and Dak still now worked all 824 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,239 Speaker 1: the way out yet and they can run the ball. 825 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: Let's let's make sure that things are done right. I 826 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 1: don't think it's to the extreme extent as as this 827 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 1: comparison is going to look, but this defense reminds me 828 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: a lot of the twenty twenty Cowboys defense, where it's 829 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 1: a switching staff, it's a switching scheme. They've got a 830 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 1: couple pieces that have been good previously and are still 831 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 1: playing well, but they're just not playing lights out. And 832 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:48,719 Speaker 1: then that's kind of where they are, a couple of 833 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 1: young pieces scattered throughout there as well, and then they 834 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 1: find their their rhythm as the season goes along, and 835 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,800 Speaker 1: they do so by taking the football away. That was 836 00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,879 Speaker 1: the identity of the Cowboys defense twenty twenty was Okay, 837 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 1: we're finding way to force some turnovers late in the year. 838 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 1: They're doing it a little bit early on. I'm not 839 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 1: saying that they're a piece away like the Cowboys defense 840 00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 1: wasn't twenty twenty for being a part of something like 841 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: the Cowboys happened now, but I will say it just 842 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 1: that that young feeling, that that hungry feeling from their 843 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 1: defense has that kind of thought process, especially in the 844 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 1: secondary with the briskers of the world that are playing 845 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 1: lights out. That's where I look, and I'm okay, they've 846 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:30,759 Speaker 1: got some guys there. Be careful if you're gonna throw 847 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: it down the field, but that is gonna do it 848 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 1: here for us on Talking Cowboys, gentlemen, that was a 849 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,880 Speaker 1: lot of fun.
