Andy Everett Show on this Cowboys victory Monday edition, sans
Andy Everett as he is out traveling for UTSA basketball
which we all also will have coming up here on
the station. Remind me against seven thirty pregame, correct pregame
in collect tip. All right, so we got two more
(00:24):
hours of uninterrupted sports talk to carry you through the afternoon.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Early evening commute.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
As always, I appreciate all of you all riding along
with me anytime I get to fill in for Andy.
It's a lot of fun getting to do the shame
that getting to do the show here with Shane.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
That was yeah, exactly, that's what you gotta do. You
gotta laugh at all. You just got to realize this
is funny and weird.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
That if you apologize in the moment, it feels worse.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Ask Thom Brenneman and get back to me, because yeah,
I think I think they can sometimes actually give it
more legs and make it worse as we saw in
that moment, like, oh hey, that was a mistake of course,
you know. Yeah, we head down, plow through, so to speak.
We got a lot of football.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
To get to.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
We've kind of teased Cowboy Talk with some audio clips
in the first hour if you missed it. We'll get
into some more of the actual details of the game
here for the next couple segments before we turn our
attention to the rest of the NFL, and then a
little college football to open up the six o'clock hour
before we eventually give way to Uncle Andy and UTSA
(01:38):
basketball coming up tonight. But Shane, I don't know about you,
the that game was arguably one of the one of
the most two sides of the coin type of games
I can remember in Cowboys history.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
I mean there was I was stupid enough.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
I thought I was stupid enough for picking the Cowboys
on the podcast last week. That Cowboys plus three and
a half was tempting enough for me to take the bait.
And I think through a first quarter, first twenty minutes
of the game yesterday, it felt I was sitting there
questioning myself about how stupid I possibly could be for
(02:26):
thinking the Cowboys had any chance of keeping that game close.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
And then what do you know.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
From the eleven minute mark of the second quarter, the
Eagles never scored again. Not only never scored, they only
made it past the fifty yard line twice over the
last what is that twenty nine minutes of the game. Yeah,
(02:54):
they never even got close to the red zone. I
mean they the furthest they got down was the thirty
seven yard line and then had the Saquon fumble that
we played the audio from in the first hour. So
I don't know how you I don't know how you
wrap your head around the absolute just clear juxtaposition of
(03:15):
the two versions of the Dallas Cowboys we saw yesterday,
the one that started with going for it on fourth
and three at the fifty yard line yep, or at
midfield on their first procession, I don't either, But it
also to me it was a play call, the play
call mixed with a bit of a rushed set in
(03:39):
getting to the line, and then you know, at that
point when the play clock was under ten, I kind
of said out loud, Okay, they're just doing the the fakes.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
You know, hard hard count. That never works.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yeah, unless you're Patrick Mahomes and you literally yell this
efen never works, and then they.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Run a play and it works. But I thought that
was what we were getting there.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
You know, the Brandon Aubrey missing a kick, that's usually
a sign that this is not the Cowboys playing at
their best right the.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Which he's allowed to miss one every now and then,
it's just it's just unusual from him to do it.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Which and again, imagine twenty years ago, even ten years ago,
you're complaining that your kicker missed a fifty one yard
field goal. I mean that was still you know, the
fact that Aubrey makes us feel like that's a normal
chip shot is a great, a great measurement of how
(04:41):
spoiled we are having the most automatic not only accurate,
but also you know, distant kicker in the league. And
Aubrey of course made good at the end with the
game winning field goal from what was that forty something
yards two Again, that is an extra point basically for him.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
At this point, we're.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Gonna do some Cowboys winners and losers, but wanted to
just kind of start with the game overall, the game overall,
and like I said, the two sides of the coin
we saw, because it's really hard to explain how all
of a sudden that defense was able to go eight
(05:29):
drives technically seven because one of those was the one
play the Eagles ran at the end of the first
half just to run the clock out. So really seven
drives where the Cowboys defense all of a sudden puts
up a goose egg and doesn't allow the opponent to
even get into the red zone.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
To be honest, I felt like the defense all game
long played good enough for you to win. And i'd
actually this, actually during the game, the offense and really
the coaching staff put the defense in top positions with
those scoring drives because and I'll just list this off, like,
the Cowboys had five drives in the first half and
this is how they ended. They failed ford out, the
failed fourth down conversion, The next drive was a three
and out. After that they got to fill a territory
(06:11):
and then Kam Turbine fumbled it off of uh sorry,
Tyler Guiden's calf.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Right and he fumbled it again. Yeah, the turf monster
got you. The turf monster got him. But it's also
it's a guy that's not a running back.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I get a snap.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Between the he knows how to hold the ball. He's
a returner and a receiver, so.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Like, yeah, but he doesn't have the footwork of a
running back.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
To him jet sweep like they did in the third quarter, or.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Even a toss outside the idea.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Again, there were so many questionable things in the first
twenty minutes of this game, and.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
They had the obviously the interception in the red zone
after the Tyler Guiden falls start, which was embarrassing because
you were gonna give it to Jabon's he was going
to get in. Javonte had a good game, and we'll
get to that a second.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Now. There's a little bit of Bud Kilmer and Shoddy
seemingly like why don't you just give it to when
you're you know, eighteen.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
I hate shotguns. I hate shotgun at the one yard line.
I'm one of those guys that hate shotgun at the one.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Yards as you should. It doesn't unless it's first down.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
And then they had the touchdown obviously the end the
half with so you're down twenty one to seven. Really,
but those three touchdowns, like like you talked about them,
the Cowboys did it to themselves. And really, if you
look at the first game, it's Philly in this game
against Philly, Philly won the first game, not just because
it's the ceed drops, because obviously has seven drops in
two games against the Eagles, but they shot themselves in
the foot in that game a couple of times. They
(07:33):
hurt themselves in this one. So really this year the
Cowboys power power. I feel like we're the better team.
But it felt like also that this game was also
the perfect metaphor for the Cowboys season, where one game
it feels like they're dominant, like the Jets, they beat
the Jets, the Jets and all facets of both sides,
of all three faces of the ball, and then the
other time they're playing the uh, the Bears, where they
(07:54):
are just not in it at all. And this game
to me felt like not quite a turning point game,
but really more of it shows like the difference of
where they are just in a couple of weeks, because
this Cowboys team has done it before. Remember five years
ago they made this a similar comeback against the against
the Falcons. It was it was a similar I remember
what the deficit was at the highest, I think like
(08:15):
twenty four points or something like that.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Well it had to have been twenty one, becauay tied
the longest comeback ever.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Yes, okay, okay, well at the biggest, but that was
still like I think into the third court.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
That's what it was.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
It was. It was a deficit that lasted longer against
this Eagles team. Which you had taught you and I
had talked about it that the offense that they run
was very flawed. It's very much predicated on clock management
and setting up a third and fourth and shorts. And
the Cowboys did a great job of not only third
down defense, but avoiding those fourth and short attempts.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Well and also keeping the Eagles out of the red zone.
I mean that that's their recipe, get to the red zone.
Get to the red zone, capitalized with touchdowns. They score
more touchdowns, have a higher touchdown percent of any team
in the red zone across the league.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Control the ball.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
As you said, it just feels like we are and
we're going to talk about the specifically the impact of
you know, the additions on the defensive side of the
ball led by Quinn Williams. But to go from getting
absolutely demolished in the run game by Carolina and Rico
(09:18):
dowdle after Rico told you to buckle up and then
absolutely followed it up with a two hundred yard performance.
Take that team that played Carolina and compare it to
what we saw yesterday where the Eagles had a rushing
success rate under twenty percent. It was like, right, it
was like eighteen point eight, almost nineteen percent. That's their
(09:42):
lowest rushing game success rate for the Eagles since Week
two of twenty fifteen, a decade ago.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
There individual that was like when they had they took
Murray from us or something like that, right.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Or exactly right around that.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Yeah, they're They're individual rushing success rate yesterday was the
worst it's been in a decade. And this defense that
got demolished by the Panthers Enrico dwdele just was able
to stop Saquon Barkley and the Eagles offense from doing
anything similar to what we saw.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
What was that seven weeks ago? Six weeks ago?
Speaker 4 (10:22):
I think so it was week one. However many weeks
when the seas I think we're actually might be ten
weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Oh well, I mean when they played Caroline.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
Oh pay Caroline oh seven seven? Oh, that was like
right after the that was right before the Packers tie,
I believe.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Right, yeah, so, and specifically mentioning, you know, quinnin Williams
and the additions to the defense. Obviously very small sample
size of two games, but take it for what you will.
It's two games against the Raiders, who were a mess
fired Chip Kelly now you know, seemingly chose defiantly not
(10:59):
to give the ball to Ashton genty last week for
whatever reason.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
But the Eagles are not the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
The Eagles have their offensive struggles, don't get me wrong,
but they're still a team that you would not expect
to have the level of success that the Cowboys did
yesterday going up against them, and again small sample size
two games there, the Cowboys have only allowed forty three
rushing yards on nineteen carries.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
That's astonishing over the last two games.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
I don't care the opponent is, because we've seen worst
Cowboys teams give up more rushing yards to worse offense.
Absolutely so, like really, like in the NFL, especially where
like these are the best players in the world, you
can't take that kind of thing for granted. That Cowboys
defenses of the past. It wouldn't matter if they have
played the worst rushing attack in the NFL, which I
don't know who it is right now, off the time
I had maybe the Raiders, regardless who it is, this
(11:53):
Cowboys team in the past would give up hundred yard
game to them. We've seen this Cowboys secondary just this
year make were level quarterbacks to use a better term,
look like Pro bowlers. They made Russell Wilson look like
Seattle Russell Wilson. And somehow in the last two weeks
since the bye weekend. I don't know if it's just
the motivation after losing Marshawn Neeland, the additions to the team,
either through trade, through injuries, and obviously the arrival of
(12:15):
soon revel off of ir, whether it's that turnaround, whether
it's the buying into the coaches staff. Maybe sometimes these
players need to be seasoned, or just that break helped.
I don't know what it is. This defense looks night
and day into what it did three weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Yeah, I think when you you know, you just look
at the numbers and they've added basically five new starters.
You know, almost half of the defense is completely different.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
And I would and I would count moving on from
Elam and Mazie as additions as well, oh attraction, because
I remember I mentioned those five guys like weeks ago,
the five guys like these get these guys off the team,
And they had one of those guys, Jalen Tolbert, as
healthy and active. And I'm gonna give credit to two
guys that we talked about in the first hour, Sam
Williams and Keneth Murray guys. I was like, I'm ready
(13:02):
to move on for these guys. If nothing else, they
played better yesterday and what I think works with Kenneth
Murray and I don't know how you feel. We talked
a little bit and before the show, like you can't
trust any of these linebackers to play sixty snaps by themselves,
but the rotation of these guys, it feels like how
they're using them, how EBA Plusy's using them has found
a way to make them work.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yeah, and you know it, it might surprise you to
hear the trio of Quinnin, Williams, Osa and Kenny Clark. Yeah,
all played more snaps individually than anybody in the linebacker group.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
That didn't surprise me at all.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Kenneth Murray had thirty nine snaps, led the linebackers overshown
thirty seven. Those were your two most used linebackers. Surprisingly,
Logan Wilson actually dropped in snap count yesterday compared to Monday.
Last Monday in Vegas, he was only at twenty four,
but Quinnon was out there forty six snaps.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
OsO was out there forty two, including.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
The game changing, game saving sack on third and two
that got the Cowboys of the ball back there at
the end. And then Kenny Clark played forty snaps, all
three of them individually played more than your linebackers, which
also goes into line with what we're going to talk
about coming up next, some winners and losers because Eberfluse,
(14:23):
I've defended him all season. Maybe it really just was
the personnel that was missing.
Andy Everett Show on this Cowboys victory Monday edition, sans
Andy Everett as he is out traveling for UTSA basketball
which we all also will have coming up here on
the station. Remind me against seven thirty pregame, correct pregame
in collect tip. All right, so we got two more
(00:24):

Speaker 2 (00:43):
That was yeah, exactly, that's what you gotta do. You
gotta laugh at all. You just got to realize this
is funny and weird.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
That if you apologize in the moment, it feels worse.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Ask Thom Brenneman and get back to me, because yeah,
I think I think they can sometimes actually give it
more legs and make it worse as we saw in
that moment, like, oh hey, that was a mistake of course,
you know. Yeah, we head down, plow through, so to speak.
We got a lot of football.

Tyler Guiden's calf.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Right and he fumbled it again. Yeah, the turf monster
got you. The turf monster got him. But it's also
it's a guy that's not a running back.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I get a snap.
Speaker 3 (06:28):

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Like, yeah, but he doesn't have the footwork of a

don't know who it is right now, off the time
I had maybe the Raiders, regardless who it is, this
(11:53):
Cowboys team in the past would give up hundred yard
game to them. We've seen this Cowboys secondary just this
year make were level quarterbacks to use a better term,
look like Pro bowlers. They made Russell Wilson look like
Seattle Russell Wilson. And somehow in the last two weeks
since the bye weekend. I don't know if it's just
the motivation after losing Marshawn Neeland, the additions to the team,
either through trade, through injuries, and obviously the arrival of
(12:15):
soon revel off of ir, whether it's that turnaround, whether
it's the buying into the coaches staff. Maybe sometimes these
players need to be seasoned, or just that break helped.
I don't know what it is. This defense looks night
and day into what it did three weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Yeah, I think when you you know, you just look
at the numbers and they've added basically five new starters.
You know, almost half of the defense is completely different.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
And I would and I would count moving on from
Elam and Mazie as additions as well, oh attraction, because
I remember I mentioned those five guys like weeks ago,
the five guys like these get these guys off the team,
And they had one of those guys, Jalen Tolbert, as
healthy and active. And I'm gonna give credit to two
guys that we talked about in the first hour, Sam
Williams and Keneth Murray guys. I was like, I'm ready
(13:02):
to move on for these guys. If nothing else, they
played better yesterday and what I think works with Kenneth
Murray and I don't know how you feel. We talked
a little bit and before the show, like you can't
trust any of these linebackers to play sixty snaps by themselves,
but the rotation of these guys, it feels like how
they're using them, how EBA Plusy's using them has found
a way to make them work.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yeah, and you know it, it might surprise you to
hear the trio of Quinnin, Williams, Osa and Kenny Clark. Yeah,
all played more snaps individually than anybody in the linebacker group.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
That didn't surprise me at all.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Kenneth Murray had thirty nine snaps, led the linebackers overshown
thirty seven. Those were your two most used linebackers. Surprisingly,
Logan Wilson actually dropped in snap count yesterday compared to Monday.
Last Monday in Vegas, he was only at twenty four,
but Quinnon was out there forty six snaps.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
OsO was out there forty two, including.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
The game changing, game saving sack on third and two
that got the Cowboys of the ball back there at
the end. And then Kenny Clark played forty snaps, all
three of them individually played more than your linebackers, which
also goes into line with what we're going to talk
about coming up next, some winners and losers because Eberfluse,
(14:23):
I've defended him all season. Maybe it really just was
the personnel that was missing.
