right now and bring on Clarence Hill Junior.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Those are fantastic words.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
Been covering the Dallas Cowboys for a very long time
and it's with All City Network now d LLS.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Clarence is good to catch up with you, man. How
are you well, man?
Speaker 3 (00:14):
How you got to doing?
Speaker 2 (00:15):
We're doing great, pretty excited about this game.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
How about how are Cowboys fans feeling right now about
their team? It's it's been kind of a roller coaster season,
including the off season with the Michael Parsons trade.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Yeah, you know, it's interesting because I don't know if
expectations were high comes in the scene that's at last
year seven to ten campaign and then you trade Michael Parsons.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
I think Calvin's man.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Sounds pretty good about your team, you.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
Know, because you know this is better than you know.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
I guess they expected and their competitive and the offense
and neck preff guty that is playing out of their minds.
They're loving George Pickens, the n C lamb from the
defense of the issue with Michael Parson.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
But I think they've fallen in love with the coach.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Brian shot number was gonna call him Marty shot Nhamber.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
I know his dad and hold enough to remember his dad.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Coach, And actually I covered uh Brian in high school
when he was in Kansas City, you know. But uh so,
I tell you how old I am.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
But anyway, uh so, they're something pretty good.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
I think this is one of those games where you know,
get over hump, beat Denver, beat this Broncos.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
Team, and then you'll really be feeling good.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
About yourself and possibly cooking with Grease Claire's.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Javonte Williams started his career here as a running back,
had some promising moments, hurt his knee pretty bad, didn't
look the same, But now he's looking like the old
Javonte and even better than what we saw. Talk a
little bit about the impact Javonte Williams has had on
the Dallas Cowboys offense.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Yeah, and I understand Davante is not giving you any
bulletin boar material, no revenge talk. No, you know, I'll
have him my bucket up. I want to pay him
back for letting me go. He said all the right names.
He is having to be in Dallas. He I mean,
he's supposed himself. He never thought he'd be back. He
never thought he thought his career was over, you know.
(02:09):
And it is as far as being a top back
and being and running this well and to do what
he's doing, he's supposence of his second NFL and rushing.
So he's what the doctor water for Cowboy's offense.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
And keep in mind he's also wanted to get a
lot of white boxes.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Because of Ceedee Lamb and George pick him in this
amazing passing game. And you know he doesn't have a
lot of heavy boxing, but you know he's been great.
You know this this this.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Team, all they scored six wasn't touchdowns all last season. Uh,
he has seven. He had seven touchdowns, you know, and
so he.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Has to go with they have in the passing game. Uh,
he's a big back, one cut runner. You know, he
fits what they do well. And and you know, Shotty
said the best. We bet on him, We.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Bet right, you know, we bet on him. And Sir M.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Shawn said that they were going in a different direction
and they did and it's kind of worked out for
both parts of I think Jim Jimmers running game is
doing pretty good. And certa of the Cowboys love when
they're getting from Javanti Williams.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Yeah, certainly looks really dynamic. I want to ask you
about some of the injuries here. We already know about
Trayvon Diggs, Donovan Wilson. That's gonna really impact that the
secondary there. But a couple of questions. I know guys
are kind of working back off. I r opened up
some windows. What do we knowing Tyler Smith's questionable? Cooper Bebe,
I know he's one of the guys that's worked his
(03:30):
way back. What are some of the injuries for this
game for the Cowboys?
Speaker 3 (03:35):
You know Thomas Smith should be fine. Why you Thomas?
You know he has not practiced. You know certainly you
talked about Donald Donald Wilson maybe have one year Thomas
at safety possibly gonna be out. H Trayvon Diggs, he
didn't play last weekend and the Cowboys may be moving
away from this form of football form all.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Pro guy Michael Parsons, but he just has not.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Had a good scene in the scheme mentally physically. Uh,
they're talking about him going on, I are you know
there's a guy who we could go missed the game
because of concussion. Everything acting their at home? What are
you doing at the house in the concussion, they cause
you to miss two games, that's course with activity, right,
that's of course the book.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Uh but you know, Stephen Joe the.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Copy was admitted today that the hours an option for
him so that they feel good about their cornerback polution
and the guys that are playing without him and ready
to move forward. But outside of that, I don't think
they're anyven major injured consumed further impact on how this
team is gonna play.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
So it's pretty rare clarience that you have the number
one offense in the league and the very last place
defense in the league. Can you talk a little bit
about that imbalance? Why that exists there?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
And if that's the two thousand Rams.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Two thousand Rams had that okay, and the super.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Fact the greatest show on so they actually I think
if there's ten six season, I don't think it makes
an after the Bowl, but they had.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
The number one offense and the defense that was given
up twenty nine points a game.
Speaker 5 (05:05):
Well so so so why why why that imbalance in Dallas?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
And is that effect in the locker room at all?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
It's not affecting the locker room because this you know,
I mean.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
You know I courage shot Namer and uh, they keep
these guys together and they each big idea, a great
group and they they're all full of each other. But
what are the difference making players on defense? I mean
Jared pays his offensive guys. You know he had one
defense guy that needs to pay any trade them.
Speaker 6 (05:33):
All right, you're paying Deck at the top of the market.
You pay see at the top of market.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
You paying a tight end. You just paid him. You
paid Thomas Smith, you know, the high state guard in
the league. You know, you don't have any extensive guys
on defense, different making guys on defense, and you wonder
why you know your defense is enough? You know, I
mean Parsons was was the best passwords the league, one.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Of the best DEFENSI ends the leagues for me.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Guy that did would have helped his defense and you
didn't want to pay him and got rid of him
for nose.
Speaker 6 (06:04):
Tackle in the passing league. Uh So the defense has
been bad. Uh this is after first has been bad.
Uh it's worse now without Michael Parsons. Uh again, Chevron Diggs,
the guy is a former football guy.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
You account going to come back that the level has
not come back to the level Uh, so they're not
any different making players, and you don't have enough for
you know, you have one or two guys, but you know,
you just don't have a gang of guys on defense
and are playing and at the top of the game.
And the linebacker gors is.
Speaker 6 (06:37):
One of the worst than League one guy.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
He's talking about coming back to man the mark on Overstan.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
You know he won't back in it.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
After the buy.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
He's a guy who has potential to be that type
of player. But you know they're not. They're not other
dudes on defense yet. Up dudes.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Okay in this league, you get up dudes. They got
dudes on offense, not many dudes on defense.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Trying here with Clari still the last couple here for you.
Man really appreciate the time as always. So yeah, I
think that that perfect. He sums up at least what
we're seeing there for the defense. For the offense, though
obviously a lot of happiness about not only what you're
doing the running game, but in the passing game. I
think Jake Ferguson stepped forward has been one of the
more impressive things. I've been a been a big fan
of his now for a couple of years. But to
(07:15):
see what he's been for this offense, especially when Ced
went down. Just tell me a little bit about sort
of his impact and really all around, because he also
does a hell of a job blocking.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Yeah, I mean, you know the Titan quarterbacks best friend
the tight end right, a lot of the blanket, you know,
and and you talk about Ceb you have pickings, you know,
the big play guys outside teams are teams are giving
attention to the guys an outside.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
Which opens up the run the game. But will he
also opens up the underneath.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Thros uh for Ferguson and he's eating, he's catching the
balls eating. You know, you don't he has a.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
Lot of touch downs, a lot of catches. You don't
have a lot of yards for catch. You know, he
doesn't have a lot of yards.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
But he helps move the change, you know, he keeps
them in manage more down in the.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
Distance by just two yards, five yards, three yards where
he does he take him off. He's reliable and you
know once people really start taking him looking at those
guys outside, you know, he's a steamball, you know, and
Dack Wilt the steam battle through the most seam balling
tight end.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
But yeah, Jack Ferguson. He also got paid his off season. Uh,
and he's living up to it all.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Right, Claria.
Speaker 5 (08:22):
So if you were a defensive coordinator about to face
this Dallas Cowboys offense, how would you stop him?
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Well, I would have the two best cornerbacks or one
of the best cornerback tenns the league lived by Patrick
certain and and the best pattors get the league, you know,
get the deck.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
You get the deck, you know, and and play mad
the man, and you know, get them off their rhythm,
get them off their timing.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
I mean, I think that's in trickery.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Thing about this game. You got the number one offense.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
He talked about the Cowboys have the worst defense, But
the Packers have a number one defensively, number one past
the defense.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
And that's why this game is so tricky. Why if the.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Cowboys legitim or they're for real, they think the office
can take them in and carry them to the playoffs.
Speaker 6 (09:02):
Do it against Denver.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Do it against the tame, do it against this passway.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Let's do it.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
The beating Denver since ninety two, right or No. Ninety five?
They have won in Denvers ninety five.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
They're beating Denver since ninety I mean that one in Denver.
They haven't beaten Denvers in ninety five because then those
two teams won the Super Bowl. I don't think the
team is the only way to win the Super Bowl
if they beat Denver. But yeah, if you want to
make some of your season, do it against this Denver defense.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
This BALCO's defense is as good as in the league
right Now's still against the pass.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
