Speaker 2 (00:02):
The following he is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot
Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
This is Nick Shot screaming live on Dallascowboys dot Com.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
And the official Dallas Cowboys at.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Now Here are Bill Jones, Heckma Harrison, Everson, Wolves, and
Mickey Spagnola.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
Mm hmm, it's Friday. There you go.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
He was like, no, no, just spread.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Something like that.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
They're from that other league, the a f L, the A.
So the a f L didn't have fight songs like
we had in the NFL in the sixties.
Speaker 6 (01:08):
I bet they had a little bit more.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Emerson Boozer, they're not talking the A, B A.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Where go to school?
Speaker 4 (01:22):
I got to look up Emerson Boozers. We get you
ready for a Jet?
Speaker 7 (01:26):
Cowboys the Jets fight song.
Speaker 8 (01:28):
They just spell out Jets.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
Remember that's what Okay, that's what Mickey just said. All right,
So we got a lot to get to. Brian Schottenneimer
just had a press conference and Cowboys getting set to
take on the winless New York Jets, and Emerson Boozer
went to Maryland State. That is not a black school, Okay,
(01:51):
Maryland States. It's now Maryland Eastern Shore.
Speaker 7 (01:57):
All right, there you go, all right, there we go.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Now basketball back on anybody offensive line is going to
play on Sunday at Terrence Steele. It's one back, one
f one fifth of the offensive line.
Speaker 7 (02:13):
I thought that he had had an issue as well.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Now speaking of Emerson Boozer, we got a fifth of
our offensive line ready to go.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Get that. I got it.
Speaker 8 (02:24):
I got you a fifth.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Yeah, go ahead, Mickey.
Speaker 8 (02:28):
No, it's it's just amazing that it's like injuries attack
certain areas like it's a disease.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Right, four of them that are okay. So Geyton is
in concussion protocol, even though coach was noncommittal on whether
we could be.
Speaker 8 (02:47):
Ready until three o'clock either.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Yeah, so, but he did say he's still in concussion.
Speaker 8 (02:53):
And remember when you're in concussion protocol. To get out
of concussion protocol, you got to go do something physical
and then come back the next day.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
It's concussion protocol. Is it an hour by hour thing
or is it a day by day? If you start
the day and at noon on Friday, you're in concussion protocol,
but your team's on the practice field at twelve thirty,
can you get out of concussion protocol to get on
the field by one o'clock.
Speaker 8 (03:20):
If they clear you. When you say, but you don't
get cleared because you have to practice, do something physically, well,
they got to coming up next day. You got to
show up and have no residual effect.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Okay, so there's a possibly two day, but there's a
possibility he could get clear or cleared to practice, go
out on the field and practice, do something on the
field because they were about to practice. And then it
would also, well.
Speaker 8 (03:47):
You don't have to practice, you just got.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
To you have to do something. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 7 (03:51):
What is that?
Speaker 4 (03:51):
And then so it's lost.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
You slap people's face and you don't know.
Speaker 8 (03:56):
Maybe you got to run the violence.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
You have to do something physical, workout, Okay, all right,
and then you have to clear the next morning, right, okay,
So so.
Speaker 7 (04:10):
But you can't, can't, you can't.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Let's put it.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
Running out of time, Mickey's Mickey is saying, that is
not gonna play. I don't okay, Tyler Smith. We're going
left to right here, Tyler Smith. I don't think he's
playing whoa center. He's not playing Cooper bb on. But
your starter is not obviously not all right, and then
right guard Tyler Booker, obviously he's not. So there you go, okay,
(04:38):
So what what do they do for Tyler's If you've
got obviously Hoffman at center, t J. Bassett right guard,
who's playing left guard? If Tyler Smith doesn't play, Nate
Thomas is playing left tackle, If Tyler Guidon doesn't play,
who's playing left guard?
Speaker 8 (04:54):
Ke Keegan and.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Trevor Keegan and Hakeem identity.
Speaker 8 (04:59):
The they're running out of guys to be backups.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
You just it's Sunday at noon. You just got to
be praying on Sunday morning. Nobody gets hurt because of
the game on it either.
Speaker 8 (05:10):
If Keegan's playing, then I energies.
Speaker 7 (05:13):
Have to practice. Just go back, go move.
Speaker 8 (05:15):
And the only other guy, the only other offensive lineman
on the fifty three is.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Cornelie Cornelia Johnny Qui six round draft. So you have
on the practice squad Wesley French.
Speaker 8 (05:27):
So they could promote him, so they would have eight,
so they can bring two guys off the practice squad,
because you've got to have eight offensive linemen active to
promote to elevate two guys off practice squad, so they
could do that or they can they can promote them
and then make them inactive.
Speaker 9 (05:49):
Now, I saw somewhere weirdstat that you know all the
teams that are dealing with injuries, that you know this
the first quarter of the series of the season, and man,
it's just everybody right now, everybody forty nine ers last
night dealing with injuries.
Speaker 8 (06:04):
They weren't supposed to win, right well, I mean.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Kyle Shanahan is the coach of the year going four
and one with the injury issues.
Speaker 9 (06:11):
But the point, but the point is everybody is dealing
with it. And when you your coaches, and I think
right now, for you know, coach Schottenheimer and his group,
it's all about making sure that these guys are up
to speed like they did with TJ.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Bass and brock Hoffman.
Speaker 9 (06:26):
We had our doubts coming into the Green Bay game,
and those were the guys that I think you came
away going geez. That center and right guard was pretty
good in the face of what that defense was bringing.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
So I expect the same thing. I'm not as gloom
and doing.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
What was The good news is that they've been out
all week. It's not like an injury is happening on Friday,
and so the practice on Wednesday, the practice on Thursday.
Whoever's playing left guard has been getting reps in practice well.
Speaker 8 (06:51):
And the other thing is Hoffman and Bass are used
to playing next to each other because they went through
train camp second team offensive line, right, so there's a
little bit of chemistry.
Speaker 9 (07:05):
So Keegan should be right at home and I dentity
should be right at home since this guy's played all
of what preseason together. Kegan, of course, but I'm just saying,
you know, ergy, these are backup. These are pretty much
backup guys.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
And Day was playing tackle in preseason.
Speaker 8 (07:20):
And Nate Thomas was playing tackle because remember Geiton got hurt,
he was out all that time. They like Nate Thomas
and Clayton Adams talked about how he thought he played
awfully well that he had to go in there the
blink of an eye. They were preparing him for that
series in practice to take a series from Terrence Steele,
(07:43):
which he did. And then that's on the right side.
Now he's got to go on the left side. And look,
they scored forty points right, only gave up one sack
with you finished the game with three backups on the
offensive line. Now, you're pushing it with four right, that's
(08:04):
a lot.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
The issue is quinnin Williams on the other side.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (08:09):
Absolutely, it's probably a little bit difficult the way they
play their aggressive defense to double team a defensive tackle. Now,
Schottenheimer was talking about, well, you can slide the running
back over there and depending on where the gaps are,
you know, running back a help, but he's not going
(08:30):
to double team the guy, right, So now your center
guard or guard tackle got to take care of that
big dude. And and he's huge and he's active. You
saw the thing that will did on your Demon Street
on the screen right where he he came off a guy.
(08:51):
He's getting blocked. He came off the guy Williams.
Speaker 7 (08:54):
Yeah, and he.
Speaker 8 (08:55):
Sees the running back to his right and he just
reaches out and makes the tackle. He's getting blocked. He
wasn't blocked. So yeah, it's going to be difficult. So
a lot of it's gonna come down to how you're
scheming your offense, how you're calling plays, how quickly you
got to get the ball off, things like that.
Speaker 6 (09:15):
So that's what I like right there. You saw it
last night in the forty nine Ers game. San Francisco offense.
It's working for everyone in the league who's afraid of pressure.
We don't need to be doing a bunch of play
actions and things of that nature. If you're worried about
your offensive line, then we need to sit back, take
a four step drop as soon as that backfoot hits
(09:35):
were throwing it, just the way they did against us
last week, and the way I saw the forty nine
ers doing, especially on their last drive last night.
Speaker 7 (09:43):
You can blitz all you want. They were bringing it too.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
You can blitz all you want, but if you just
can't get there fast enough, unless you're unblocked right, all
you gotta do is just like we try to do
in the secondary, just devate just a little bit. Dak
or any quarterback can get it off, which is ex
exactly what happened.
Speaker 7 (10:01):
With all people.
Speaker 6 (10:01):
Mac Jones, he's coming off the field. I thought he
was going to throw up.
Speaker 8 (10:06):
Oh I was going to ask all about That's what
I thought.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
So, I mean, you know, if he can stand in
there on one leg, Yeah, you got worried about getting
hit afterwards, you know what's going to happen. But you know,
I think that's a little bit more athletic than Mac
Jones is.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Just a little bit.
Speaker 8 (10:22):
I thought he was going to get killed last night.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
It wasn't a head thing. I think he must have
had a concussion or something, right. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
If his concussion, he would have taken him off the field.
And Adrian Martinez, but.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
You're about to throw up.
Speaker 8 (10:31):
I just got hit so hard.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
He was like, Hugh, I've never been hit that hard.
I was thinking Chris Sims and a rupture's spleen or something,
you know.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
I didn't. I don't know what brings that on.
Speaker 8 (10:47):
And then he finished the game, finished the game.
Speaker 9 (10:49):
I like the game plan that you're talking about. So
many do you hear defensive guys talk about how frustrating
it is to get getting your sack, getting your lane,
try and come after God. That's letting go of the
ball fast. And if Dak that mastered that last week,
as we saw, you have to come into this game
versus the Jets with the same mind state, even though
you may not respect them the same way that you
did Green Bay. As far as the names that they
(11:11):
had on the front and on the back, back in
there's still a team that plays some solid defense and
they have the names that you have to respect. I
want to see the matchup with Sauce and George Pickens.
I mean I want to see. I want to see
if they travel them. I don't think that they will,
but I want to see good on good. And I
absolutely think that our running game has made DAK look
(11:33):
so much better.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
And if you.
Speaker 9 (11:35):
Can get Williams to continue to duplicate his effort, man,
I think you make this game easy for yourself on
the road.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
And you've always talked about this, and we go on
the road.
Speaker 9 (11:45):
We acquiesced to the pressure of the in the building
and the crowd noise and all that. You could take
the crowd out of the game with the running games.
Speaker 8 (11:53):
It travels as long as your offering. The line travels.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
And you know what, though, you know, I've been fussing
about the DBS not having that best next man up attitude,
that other offensive line they personify that to me, they've
they've had.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
I don't care. I'm not afraid. I'm really not.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
I feel very good at the varsity of the d
V officier.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
I'm talking about the JV offensive line. I feel good
about our JV offensive line. I really do, especially after
seeing what our two backups did center and guard against
the Green Bay Packers. I'm feeling very good about this game.
As far as our running game is concerned. I don't
know about necessarily winning how we handle the pressure, but
our running game will travel.
Speaker 7 (12:35):
It will travel.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
The last time that the Cowboys went to the Meadowlands
to play a Jets team, which twenty nineteen, the Jets
were oh and four coming into that game. The Jets
are oh and four coming into this game. What happened
October twenty nineteen, six years ago?
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Just want that game.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Sam Darnold to Robbie Anderson, now, Robbie Chosen, ninety two
yard touchdown. His name is Robbie Chosen. Now he just
got picked up by Washington, and uh he changed names.
Speaker 8 (13:10):
He changed names.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Have a religious epithet.
Speaker 7 (13:16):
Like that, and.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
That's what it is that twenty four twenty two enlightenment.
Let me turn it in, Cowboys. There has never been
a Jets head coach who has lost his first five games.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Never never. I like that. Ever, I like that.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Aaron Glens owing four.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Right, never say never, say never.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
We got an opportunity and he's been losing by some
very close margins.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Yes, say that three of the three of the four
losses have been by one score, so he's got They
have three losses by a total of ten points. The
other game was against Buffalo. They lost thirty to ten.
That's the game. Fields left in the halfway through the
game and Tyrod Taylor came in.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
But this is going to be an aggressive play calling
by the entire coaching.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
Staff for the Jets.
Speaker 6 (14:02):
Oh yeah, they're throwing everything, Wilks, based on what you
just said.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
They didn't want a game. Cowboys come to town.
Speaker 6 (14:09):
They are going to bring everything at us that they
can bring and just hope it all works.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
By the way, earlier in the week, I think I
said that because on my schedule that had three straight
home games for the Jets. That next week they play
at London against Denver, so it's not three straight home games, but.
Speaker 8 (14:26):
They're the home team.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Yeah, so got you in London in London?
Speaker 6 (14:30):
Yeah, So the most important down is going to be
first down.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
And the first down efficiency was better first docking, nicky,
you curd ebra flush yesterday. The first down efficiency, it
were better.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
They were better.
Speaker 8 (14:44):
Third down was an absolute.
Speaker 9 (14:47):
He's got wait a minute, has got to find something
to be right?
Speaker 7 (14:51):
Positive about it.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Nobody's talking about third down. We're talking about first down.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
I meant it's going to be important as our offense.
Speaker 8 (15:00):
If you're good on first down, then it should relate.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
To third down second.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
That's what I'm saying, Like, Hey, they're gonna kick game
if we're talking about it.
Speaker 8 (15:11):
Didn't know they went eleven of fourteen down eleven of fourteen.
Speaker 9 (15:17):
Yeah, I'm sure somebody brought that up immediately after he
mentioned that about first down.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
And one of those times that they didn't they failed
on third down, they got it on fourth down.
Speaker 8 (15:26):
Yes, right exactly.
Speaker 7 (15:27):
We talked about that.
Speaker 9 (15:28):
Yeah, and that's in this game versus the Jets. That's
what I'm looking for in this defense. Getting off the field.
Get off the field guys on third down. First down
is important. Third down is equally important for this deep
get off defensively.
Speaker 7 (15:40):
Yeah, third down get us all down offensively for us?
Speaker 9 (15:43):
I think first first down, man, get off of the field.
Speaker 8 (15:47):
Man does a third down stop count when they kick
a field goal on fourth?
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Yeah? Okay, better than continue drive for a.
Speaker 8 (15:56):
Touch for a touchdown?
Speaker 9 (15:58):
Of course. So what did you guys get from this
running game? Do you fear justin fields as a runner,
and also Breece Hall as a runner. What is it
about their running game because we've been like with b
plus in the running game so far, defensively, we have
been stopping the run over the first four games. I
wouldn't say it's been shut. We shut anybody out on
the ground.
Speaker 8 (16:18):
It might be Brice Hall and Khalil Herbert because Braylan
Allen they put on I R He's out, and uh
go ahead and say it Khalil Herbert, Kenny.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Oh no, it's Ken wang Wu who is from Prisco
Heritage High School.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Matter of fact, thank you.
Speaker 8 (16:41):
And by the way, he hasn't been he hasn't.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Practiced away, he hasn't. But I listened to Aaron Glenn
this morning and he's got a chance to play, got
a chance. He's more of a kick returner, okay, and
if he's been used to running back. He was drafted
by the Vikings.
Speaker 8 (16:56):
So Brice Hall might have to have the whole deal.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Just and they just signed Khalil Herbert off somebody's practice squad.
I can, but he just arrived today and Aaron Glenn
was asked, is there a chance Herbert could be active
on Sunday? And he said, well, he just walked in
the building. But there is a chance. And in fact,
as as Glenn said, when Herbert was at Chicago, they
(17:22):
had him graded right alongside David Montgomery as far as
his ability.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
So the big deal would be finding a helmet that
fits him in a hurry.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
Which gets us to Jaden Blue, which gets us to
Jade and Blue, and finding some shoes that fit him.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
How about that?
Speaker 8 (17:40):
Explain kids, he had some fancy cleats that Jayden Blue
wanted to wear.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I don't an that was the way it was described.
Speaker 8 (17:50):
By shot whatever that thing. Anyway, they had new shoes.
Halfway through practice, he's on the ground. He's got blisters
from wearing Louis.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Yeah. Yeah. So then he changed Shottenheimer and the point
that Schottenheimer was making, he's a young player. Young players
aren't experienced, and they'll do things like what Jayden did yesterday,
which is wear new shoes.
Speaker 7 (18:16):
Tracked them out.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Man, I think that's what he was doing.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
I think he's trying to break them in that I'm
out in practice, broke and broke out. So he figured
out that those were not the shoes to wear. So
that's he got that practice to do it.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
And again figure out those are just for autographs. That's
that's all.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
He's got to take Trayvon Diggs's lead and walk around
all the time barefoot. He rarely wears his shoes unless
he's actually practicing.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
That's good for you.
Speaker 8 (18:44):
He's always called grounding.
Speaker 9 (18:46):
Yeah, just grounding. That's just putting you out down with
some you know new Wade social media terms.
Speaker 8 (18:54):
That's not heading do with penalties.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Grounding No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Scipline no no, I'm familiar with. It's discipline.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
Connected energy of the ground. I mean it must be helping.
I mean, the guy played well last game, didn't he?
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Right, Diggs, Mickey Diggs.
Speaker 7 (19:14):
Digs played well last.
Speaker 8 (19:15):
Night, they said he did?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Yeah, what did your eyeballs?
Speaker 7 (19:21):
It hurts? It hurts, It hurts, So I feel good
about it.
Speaker 8 (19:29):
Let's see if he can play. It's limited all week
in practice.
Speaker 9 (19:32):
What is it that doesn't He's gonna probably go to
be like that throughout the season.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
He's going to be injury report all season long.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
It's gonna happen.
Speaker 8 (19:41):
Yeah, but you hear the rest of what shotten, Harmy
p least tell about. He came in to talk to
him and they agreed to disagree on the style of
defense that he wants him to play. So he's still
not happy.
Speaker 7 (19:55):
Oh so he wants to play what man play man?
Speaker 8 (19:57):
Okay, well good, But when you go to the line
of scrimmage to chuck the guy, make sure you don't
fall down.
Speaker 7 (20:03):
That's okay.
Speaker 9 (20:04):
You called him that he made a mistake in front
of the whole world everybody the last game.
Speaker 7 (20:09):
We're good.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
But I can respect that.
Speaker 9 (20:12):
I can respect a man coming in and talking to
another man about his problem.
Speaker 8 (20:16):
That's what said.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
That's what I love. That good stuff.
Speaker 8 (20:20):
It's great. See if he starts, he's not They didn't
start last week, came in on the nickel, and then
he eventually ended up at outside line, outside cornerback.
Speaker 7 (20:33):
How we looking at the cornerback?
Speaker 8 (20:35):
Uh, well, if he's good, then you got three guys.
Speaker 7 (20:41):
Was having some issues. How's he feeling now?
Speaker 8 (20:43):
He was listed as full yesterday.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
Okay, that's good.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
So that's good.
Speaker 7 (20:48):
That's good. And then Diggs have a tough game?
Speaker 8 (20:51):
Got ready, Yes, he did have a tough game.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
That first touchdown was I want him to Yeah, I.
Speaker 8 (20:57):
Had what he hadn't played in three weeks. I want
to see how well he how much he missed two games?
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Didn't he did?
Speaker 10 (21:05):
He?
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Yes? He did?
Speaker 9 (21:06):
Okay, okay, go ahead, No, no, no, no, no, it's just
it's not it's not the same for everybody.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
What you make.
Speaker 9 (21:13):
It's like, you know, with with Diggs, it's his off
season regiment and not playing football. Then the guy that's
out then you know, I just I want equal for everybody.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
That's all he had.

Coming up next sec.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Some good stuff. Got some good stuff coming.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
All right, let's talk Jayalen Tolbert here. Ever since I
got a question, Yes, sir, when you left Richardson Berkner
High School and went to Grambling, how long before you
made an impact at Grambling?
Speaker 7 (24:52):
I would say the first game, I'm.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Not surprised, did you play?
Speaker 3 (24:57):
I said?
Speaker 8 (24:59):
And the first yeah, I am.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Oh, I'm so happy I asked you that question, because
let me ask the rest of the room. What happened
when Everson went from Grambling to the NFL. He made
an impression right off the may I may picks the
first year.
Speaker 9 (25:20):
Eleven eleven picks, the first all right.
Speaker 7 (25:24):
Leading the league interceptions while I'm still on the bench.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
Believe it or not, this is getting me to two
players that could make an impact on Sunday. One of
them is Jaden Blue. Okay, Jadeen Blue had to wait
his time at Texas. It was his third year where
he made an impact there. That's why I have said
this week, Okay, I want to see it with Jayden Blue. Okay.
(25:52):
There are certain players that when I look at the draft,
I look at players like Everson Walls. When he went
to Grambling, he made an immediate impact, and sure enough
he went to the NFL, he made an immediate impact.
All right, don't take you to Jaalen Tolbert. If you
look at Jalen Tolbert's history at South Alabama, it was
a couple of years before Tolbert got his feet wet,
(26:15):
you know, and at that age for kids, you know,
it's you might be a late bloomer or whatever. But
he was playing baseball, yeah, okay, And there's other reasons
why things happen like that. And but by the time
his last two years at South Alabama, he was tearing
it up. So what track has he taken as a
third round pick in the NFL. Took him a little
(26:37):
time the first couple of years, and now you're seeing
the real Jaalen Tolbert, what they projected him to be
when they drafted him in the third round. And so
that's why I think you're seeing a very good version
of Jalen Tolbert right now.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (26:52):
So if I'm reading this right, you're saying everybody doesn't
hit the ground running, right okay.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
But it doesn't mean that they're not going to be
a good play Okay. It's just people you develop at
different times. And there's so much more that goes into
it than just what we see on the field.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
And plus you've got other players out there trying to
make the team as well, so it depends on how
they failed or how they succeed. And that you know,
if you see an opening as a player, somebody messes
up in front of you, see an opening and hopefully
you'll jump right in there and feel that spot.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
What game did you start first?
Speaker 7 (27:23):
Oh, Saint Louis?
Speaker 8 (27:24):
How many five? Five games started? If I remember correctly,
Dorset didn't even start right away?
Speaker 4 (27:32):
No, Brandy White, Brandy White.
Speaker 6 (27:35):
Stop that, yeah, that that comes from. That's the style
of the coach himself. That doesn't mean there was one,
all right, that's right, that's just And of.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Course it was a different era back then because you
had the player for life, there was anything like yeah,
that's right, yeah, And so you also had players on
the back end of that that were Bob Lily's still
playing when Randy White comes into the league.
Speaker 8 (28:04):
So mentioning so Tolbert Tolbert and Blue can Blue do
some of the things with his speed, different position that
you're gonna miss if Turpin's not out.
Speaker 6 (28:17):
That's what I'm looking at and you know he doesn't
have to line up in the slot. You can still
have the same matchup with him just lining up out
wide in the.
Speaker 8 (28:26):
Back from how many times have they thrown that pass
to just take.
Speaker 7 (28:32):
Out there and isolate them.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
You see that McCaffrey touchdown last night. You see what
caylan scheme that up on the goal line?
Speaker 7 (28:39):
Shift?
Speaker 4 (28:40):
Yes, I mean he came out twenty three personnel, So
you had McCaffrey and use check in the backfield, and
you had three tight ends and they come to the
line of scrimmage bunched up in the rams. They mirrored
that defensively, and what happened and so they shifted and
they got McCaffrey on a linebacker and it was so
(29:00):
much separation that.
Speaker 7 (29:04):
Five yards.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
Right, It was schemed up.
Speaker 8 (29:07):
Since you brought it up. So would you have gone
for it on fourth down?
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (29:12):
In that situation?
Speaker 6 (29:13):
Yeah, yes, I would have to.
Speaker 8 (29:18):
You know what I think was in his mind?
Speaker 11 (29:20):
Now?
Speaker 4 (29:20):
It was fourth and one?
Speaker 8 (29:22):
Uh yeah, but you know what was the four.
Speaker 6 (29:27):
Yard By the way, I finally looked at that play again,
Uh huh. That could have scored guys, which the one
what Prosses called him right, Dak could have scored.
Speaker 4 (29:39):
Even Dak said he could couldn't score.
Speaker 7 (29:41):
If nothing else, he would have been way inside the one.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
Even Dak said, he I'll give you.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
I gotta give him more than you had a blocker
out there on the wide receiver. You had the linebacker coming.
How good is he? How good is he? So do
you to do is take the blow?
Speaker 7 (29:56):
You might spend. You don't know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 8 (29:58):
Do you think this went into the ram mind that
they went for it because if they would if they
kicked the field goal or whatever, what was I think? Oh,
they were never going to get the ball back, right,
The game was going to run out of time, right,
So you weren't going to get a chance to go
(30:18):
if they matched you.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
Well, it was different too in that they were behind. Yeah, okay,
and so they just decided that they could get the
one yard. They'd already gone forward on fourth down.
Speaker 7 (30:30):
Earlier on the drive, so they keep doing.
Speaker 4 (30:32):
But they didn't run a you know, forty blasts.
Speaker 8 (30:35):
Like right up the middle.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (30:37):
I didn't like to play call.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Yeah, and neither did Sean McVay. And he was beside
himself after the game because he took the ball out
of his best player's hands, and his best players would
be Matthew Stafford. Matthew Stafford, Williams had already fumbled on
the goal line. O.
Speaker 9 (30:55):
Man, that talk about Alfred Collins.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
How about giving us some love to Lord Alfred Collins,
a rookie second round draft pick. Man, that.
Speaker 7 (31:06):
Was a hell of a play.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
Williams didn't do it.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Man.
Speaker 7 (31:09):
Man, it's just all this all up in his grill
and he's all right.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Shawson loved to Jalen Tobert.
Speaker 9 (31:16):
Well, I mean, it's I think it's the curious case
of Jalen Tobert. He's a guy that's been around for
years that the fan base and all the coaching staff
has been rooting for, waiting on this guy to have
a breakout. Last year, even people when they said Jalen
Tobert led this team in touchdowns, you know he did,
he did, But it was like, but even when you
(31:36):
say that, it's people like, what how does it?
Speaker 7 (31:39):
What does that matter?
Speaker 3 (31:40):
You know that, do'na tell.
Speaker 7 (31:41):
You he led a bad team.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
He let a bad team.
Speaker 9 (31:44):
But he's he's in a situation where even when he
came up big in the Green Bay game, it was
like that's what we've been wanting, that's what we've been
asking for. And now you're in another situation where look,
Cavante Turpin is down and Cavante turping. This season of
four games has shown you that he is a nightmare
four teams they have to account.
Speaker 7 (32:04):
For just in return.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
Yeah, he's a crossing whatever he runs the route treat Mickey.
But now Jayalen Tobert, that's that's an extra piece of
that role that he has to carve out and Dak
has to trust him.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
He does, he has to.
Speaker 7 (32:19):
That's that's what you know this now.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
I think I complained about it Giant's game, you know,
we think I guess they were getting doubled on the outside,
and he's he went at Tobert probably four consecutive times
in the clutch and of course Jayleen came up with
the clutch catch.
Speaker 7 (32:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (32:36):
But what we see with Joeln is it's like almost
like it's unfulfilled expectations. You want him to do well,
but you know he can do. You're looking for better
for some reason. I'm always looking for more. I'm starting
to see it. I am starting to see it because
once again that catching he made that made that a
(33:00):
meaning the throw out of the throw, I mean, I
don't know which one was better because off his back foot,
backfoot going away fading, I don't know how forty something
yards look like. I wasn't sure exactly how how long
the throw was. But for Jalen to have the wherewithal
to come back and make that play, that was not
(33:22):
an easy catch.
Speaker 7 (33:23):
I don't give down how good the pass was.
Speaker 6 (33:25):
That was a very difficult catch to make and to
be that aware, the dB had no idea what the
hell was going on?
Speaker 8 (33:31):
Right, and he got both feeding bounce.
Speaker 7 (33:33):
Got both feeding pretty much easily. He made that look
easier than what it was.
Speaker 8 (33:38):
So how do you feel about the third receiver flowing away?
Speaker 3 (33:42):
I feel good about him. I feel good about him.
Speaker 7 (33:44):
Do some things.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
Yeah, I like the way I like the way that
they used him.
Speaker 9 (33:48):
He was on the reverse they you know, a couple
of plays there you could see, you know where he flashed,
And it's all about Dak trusting him as well. But
coming into this game, guys, I'm not gonna know. Look,
I'm gonna just say it how it is. George Pickens
number three, make sure he eats, make sure at the
end of the game is thirteen catches, you know, one
(34:08):
hundred and fifty yards, two touchdowns. That's what everybody else
does with their superstars. That's what you know. Cincinnati, even
though they have two really good Jamar Chase, they justin Jefferson.
Guys like that, they get force fed. And when you're
in a situation where your other superstar wide receivers out,
make sure that this guy goes out and victimizes a
(34:28):
Jets defense that is not going to have an answer for.
And when we were talking about it yesterday, he knows
the AFC, he knows these guys.
Speaker 7 (34:36):
Can't wait for this matchup.
Speaker 6 (34:38):
The defensive coordinator, I'm sure is going to be trying
to game plan him. This is gonna be pretty personal.
I think this is gonna be personal between he and
that second there. But but what I'm trying to look
for is for Jalen Tobert to show me that he's
more athletic than what he's shown us.
Speaker 7 (34:57):
I want to see some yak.
Speaker 6 (34:58):
I got to see some yak we're gonna needed unless
he's gonna run every route right at the chains. He
doesn't break tackles at all. He makes good catches, he
doesn't break cat he makes good. He runs good routes,
but can they set him up to where he can
make plays after he.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
I just don't think he's that type of player.
Speaker 6 (35:18):
And see, I'm hoping that you're wrong, and I'm hoping
that I'm wrong because the way you said that, you
hate to say it.
Speaker 4 (35:24):
I mean I like him by the way that's in
his role. Yeah right, he's that's I think he is
nothing wrong and there's nothing wrong with it. It is
who he is. But I don't he's not ceedee lamb.
You know, he's not a guy you.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
Could be ceedee lamb. Ish, you don't have to be
give me, give me something, lamb.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
Even I didn't watch a lot of him in college highlights.
I didn't see a lot on highlights where he's getting
a lot of yards after catch.
Speaker 7 (35:55):
And so if you if you have a guy like that,
then you hope that he's.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
I mean, there's another third another third round pick from
ten years ago or whatever, Terrence Williams.
Speaker 7 (36:03):
What was he you know.
Speaker 9 (36:06):
But he still had the potential to break one off
on you if you missed speed. Yeah, I mean he.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
Had that, but he would he didn't have make you
miss run after catch.
Speaker 9 (36:16):
Right, so Jalen Tobert and with the drops right, And
you can see this with wide receivers when they have
some drops, it's in their head. And so the first
thing is secure the catch, more than anything than making
a move and thinking about anything.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
Secure the catch.
Speaker 9 (36:31):
And he's been playing like that for years where it's
just like man, I got to catch his ball first,
and so making a move after the fact is an
afterthought to him.
Speaker 6 (36:40):
But I cannot ignore the fact that he has made
huge catches for us. The Giants game that was a
huge was it fourth down? Was that fourth believe? It
was come on man, you know, And of course with
bailing back out on that pass, you know, you got
to give him some love. You gotta give him some love.
That's why I'm trying to change my thought process about him,
(37:04):
because people thought the same thing about me. I'm looking
at the interceptions that we had in eighty one. We
had all these interceptions. We had not one person at
a touchdown. We have not one dB return to pick
for a touchdown. We were just good at what we did.
Speaker 8 (37:19):
Just like Toby, you catch, you couldn't make anybody.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
If you played wide receiver, you would be Jayalen Tobin,
I would be.
Speaker 6 (37:29):
I said this, I want more d On than Everson Walls.
I'm sorry, well that's what I need.
Speaker 8 (37:33):
I think the other thing, and we haven't discussed it
that they're probably going to be using a lot of
two tight end offense just to help the offensive line, right, and.
Speaker 7 (37:42):
You got to keep the crack out of the game.
You gotta keep off the feet. Yeah, all of that doesn't.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Okay, I just thought of my pick to click. All right,
very good, and that's coming up next here on mix shots.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Look, school is starting and I'm just a kid, and
let's be honest, I'm not going to shop for myself.

Speaker 8 (40:43):
What are you looking for their bill?
Speaker 4 (40:44):
I got to look up the season, the all time

up the all time sat New York.
Speaker 7 (40:53):
I gotta taken to.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
Find a game to mimic. Here we mixed the click
you know the first time, By the way, the first

one at home and the score of the game was

trip down memory lane there for you.

Maybe he was hurt. I don't know all right yet,
anybody got a note they want to pass along before
we go to our picks to click and picks for
the game at anything else we need to know about Mickey?
I think I'm good, Okay, no mix shot to wrap
up the weekend.
Speaker 8 (41:36):
It'll be interesting if they think Mingo is ready?
Speaker 4 (41:41):
Yeah, Jonathan me and Kayln Carson is another one.
Speaker 8 (41:45):
Because you know they only have like Pickens Tolbert Illinois.
Speaker 3 (41:58):
Proper.
Speaker 4 (42:00):
They got elevated last week, So do they do that again?
Speaker 7 (42:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (42:04):
Or is Mingo ready to go? Because you've got to
have more.
Speaker 4 (42:06):
Than three so we've got to make a roster move
to get him active.
Speaker 8 (42:10):
If you on Mingo, if you do that and you
can't put down an offensive lineman.
Speaker 3 (42:15):
No, that's not going to happen.
Speaker 4 (42:17):
You've got two more elevations left on Cropper, right, So
maybe you wait a week, maybe you do. Yeah, I
would think he probably did, probably do. Yeah, that's the
other thing, is I mean Mingo's first week.
Speaker 8 (42:30):
Yeah, Usually they make them practice two weeks before.
Speaker 7 (42:33):
Ye I was going to say, you quit him out there.
Speaker 4 (42:36):
Yeah, fifty two, yeap, fifty two to ten. All right,
so ever, since you want to get us started here,
you're picks to click and you're picked to win.
Speaker 6 (42:49):
I'm gonna go with my group that has the next
man up attitude, and that's our offensive line, looking for
Nate Thomas and how Off one and Bass to kick
ass the entire game, just like they did against Green Bay.
It's gonna be a tough game, but I'm looking at
winning thirty to twenty thirty to twenty thirty twenty. You
(43:13):
gotta keep up the scores. We have to keep scoring.
We have to keep scoring. It's gonna take thirty points.
You look at it and say forty, but it's gonna
take thirty points. They're gonna get They're they're gonna play well.
But the Jets are gonna bring it everything that they have.
They're gonna come out with the trickiest and most clever plays.
They'll probably take a page out of Shannahan's book.
Speaker 7 (43:36):
Number in Shannahan's book. It was Matthew Stafford's book when they.
Speaker 6 (43:39):
Set in screens for wide receivers as they come off
the line of scrimmags. I believe that was the Jets,
I mean the Rams that did that all of that stuff,
which I think we should practice that as well with
the wide receivers that we have picks coming off the
line of scrimmage on big third downs and things of
that nature. But they're gonna put everything, pull everything out
of the bag that they have. Thirty to twenty Cowboys

offensive line gonna have to keep the crowd out of
the game. Pick the no penalties, no penalties to put
us in trouble. Penalties on the road will kill you.
Speaker 9 (44:14):
Pick the entire offensive line. So I didn't know y'all
could do.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
This on this show. I am learning to show my
show the entire group. So okay, I don't know.
Speaker 8 (44:24):
Wanted to take Nate.
Speaker 6 (44:26):
It's okay, he got them all.
Speaker 9 (44:30):
So look, we've been talking about Jaydon Blue all week.
I'm not gonna take Jaydon Blue. I'm gonna take Javonte Williams,
the starting running back, and because I just think that
he's the guy that takes the air out of the
stadium makes this game easier for Dak.
Speaker 3 (44:45):
He's on a roll right now.
Speaker 9 (44:46):
He is the guy that also that could catch it
out of the backfield. He is mean finishes runs. I
love having this guy on our roster. I wasn't impressed
at first, but I am now. Javonte Williams is my
pick to click score. I'm gonna go twenty four seventeen Cowboys.
Speaker 4 (45:02):
Win twenty four seventy. Yes, second straight week that you've
got this defense giving up less than twenty points.
Speaker 7 (45:11):
Jill, don't do that.
Speaker 3 (45:13):
I don't do that. I don't do that.
Speaker 4 (45:15):
Yeah, don't see nobody see You're the last is half
full for you.
Speaker 3 (45:19):
Try.
Speaker 9 (45:20):
You can't just do this weekend and week got something
good has to happen.
Speaker 4 (45:26):
All right, Mickey, what are you thinking?
Speaker 8 (45:29):
After much thought on this, I've got the twenty three
twenty twenty three twenty defenses.
Speaker 7 (45:37):
Well, I'll check.
Speaker 8 (45:41):
And my pick to click is going to be the
NFC Special Teams Player of the Month.
Speaker 4 (45:47):
Brandon Aubrey.
Speaker 9 (45:48):
All right, okay, so you're picking. You think it's gonna
be a ton of field goals in this game, that's right.
Speaker 6 (45:53):
It could be on the road on the road. It
could be. That's a good I like that. That's a
good call, all right.
Speaker 4 (45:59):
As I'm mentioned earlier, six years ago, the Cowboys went
to met Life Stadium and they lost. They lost to
a winless Jets team twenty four to twenty two. As
Dak Prescott recounted that game and yesterday outside the locker room,
he lamented the fact that he tried to throw it
(46:21):
to Jason Witten on a two point conversion and Jamal
Adams blew that thing up and the Cowboys weren't able
to tie that thing up and force overtime in the
final minute. And you remember what happened after that, I don't.
Speaker 8 (46:34):
It was all they I told you, so they should
have signed Jamal Adams or traded for him whatever was
going on.
Speaker 7 (46:40):
Back Yeah, no, just don't have anymore.
Speaker 3 (46:42):
No.
Speaker 4 (46:43):
And in fact, the Seattles gave up. The Seattles gave up,
gave up Seattle for him. So here's what's going to
happen this time. Cowboys go back to met Live Stadium,
and the Cowboys win the game twenty four twenty two.
(47:06):
But it's another different tight end, not the starting tight
end who scores the winning touchdown for the Cowboys Dak
Prescott to Brevan span Ford to win the game in
the final minute.
Speaker 8 (47:22):
My two tight end offense.
Speaker 4 (47:24):
There you go. I was going to go Jayden Blue.
Speaker 3 (47:28):
I was going to get hurt. That wouldn't hurt too much.
That hurt too much to do it.
Speaker 4 (47:31):
I was saving Jadan Blue for you. Now you are
you myself. I'm going Brevan span Ford my pick.
Speaker 3 (47:40):
To click twenty four.
Speaker 7 (47:42):
I like it. I like it.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
She went seventeen.
Speaker 7 (47:45):
I got it.
Speaker 4 (47:45):
So, just like last week, we all have the Cowboys winning.
Speaker 3 (47:49):
Yes we did.
Speaker 4 (47:50):
Could they tie for a second.
Speaker 7 (47:51):
Straight no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 4 (47:53):
Could they go overtime?
Speaker 8 (47:55):
No, third time in four weeks, which you know what,
and we haven't pointed this out, but those overtimes are costing.
Speaker 7 (48:04):
Them physically, Yes they are.
Speaker 8 (48:07):
That's twenty minutes of extra football in three weeks.
Speaker 7 (48:10):
And we don't have that kind of lexy in our roster.
Speaker 8 (48:13):
No, not anymore.
Speaker 4 (48:15):
No, by the way, did I mention that my idea
on overtime if you play, if you're tied after the
overtime period, what they need to do regular season only
have a shootout, have a field goal shootout.
Speaker 3 (48:29):
We win.
Speaker 4 (48:30):
That. That's why I like it. Okay, they start at
the fifty yard line, okay, and Brandon Aubrey versus Nick
Folk in this case, and you back up five yards
after they make them.
Speaker 8 (48:43):
Or you're starting with a fifty yard you start with
a fountain line.
Speaker 7 (48:48):
Yeah, okay, fifty yard kick.
Speaker 4 (48:51):
Or here's the other idea is okay, you have a shootout,
but you don't. It's not the kickers or the punters
that can participate in the shootout. It's gotta be another
player on the team.
Speaker 3 (49:04):
No, man, you do it fantasy football.
Speaker 7 (49:09):
Stuff.
Speaker 8 (49:11):
He sounds like the time in training camp. It was
the last day last practice and Jason Garrett uh made
the offense pick an offensive lineman to catch a punt.
Speaker 3 (49:25):
So as it looks, the punt.
Speaker 8 (49:28):
Wasn't like a big high sky punt, right. I forgot
who they picked, and the guy ended up Yeah, he
ended up on his knees to catch it. Because if
the guy caught it, they were going to cancel something. Right, Well,
they had already planned we were going home that that evening, right,
(49:49):
but he caught it, It's like, all right, we're going home.
Speaker 4 (49:53):
Actually, actually, seriously, I do think after seeing another overtime,
went went oh, last night. Okay, all right, where the
first team that has the ball kicks a field go
just like the Cowboys did to your point, okay, and
this would have changed what the Cowboys would have done
last week. I think regular season they ought to have
the old overtime rules where whoever wins it, if you
(50:14):
score a touchdown, you'll win the game. You playoffs. You
both teams can have the ball. Okay, but in this
case regular season games because what you're were seen in
the last couple of overtime games. I watched team that
started with the ball, they go ahead and take the
points to get on the board and trust their defense whatever.
And the Cowboys last week, if they could have won
(50:36):
the game at the four yard line with a touchdown,
they would have gone for it.
Speaker 7 (50:39):
I believe, Hey, you're gonna turn this in the Hunger Games.
It's gonna get work.
Speaker 8 (50:44):
Did you hear him explain that that he because he
didn't like his third down call? Schottenheimer, He said, basically,
that was his third or fourth down call, so he
used it on third down. So I don't know that
he didn't have another call, but that was the favorite
call there and he misread how they were going to
play their defense like he thought they'd be in man
(51:06):
and they weren't because Pickens was going to run a
slant if you saw, and they safety was there to
double him, and he tried to go back.
Speaker 4 (51:16):
To the left.
Speaker 3 (51:16):
Done just say you agree with me?
Speaker 4 (51:18):
It's okay, all right, I don't does it? The joy
the game on Sunday, and we'll be back at high
noon on Monday to talk about another Cowboys win.
Speaker 8 (51:29):
Not a tie, Go got.
Speaker 3 (51:32):
A tie, Cowboy Nation, I hope your team wins this.
Speaker 2 (51:35):
It's been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and the
Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
M hmm.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
The following he is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot
Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
This is Nick Shot screaming live on Dallascowboys dot Com.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
And the official Dallas Cowboys at.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Now Here are Bill Jones, Heckma Harrison, Everson, Wolves, and
Mickey Spagnola.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
Mm hmm, it's Friday. There you go.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
He was like, no, no, just spread.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Something like that.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
They're from that other league, the a f L, the A.
So the a f L didn't have fight songs like
we had in the NFL in the sixties.
Speaker 6 (01:08):
I bet they had a little bit more.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Emerson Boozer, they're not talking the A, B A.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Where go to school?
Speaker 4 (01:22):
I got to look up Emerson Boozers. We get you
ready for a Jet?
Speaker 7 (01:26):
Cowboys the Jets fight song.
Speaker 8 (01:28):
They just spell out Jets.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
Remember that's what Okay, that's what Mickey just said. All right,
So we got a lot to get to. Brian Schottenneimer
just had a press conference and Cowboys getting set to
take on the winless New York Jets, and Emerson Boozer
went to Maryland State. That is not a black school, Okay,
(01:51):
Maryland States. It's now Maryland Eastern Shore.
Speaker 7 (01:57):
All right, there you go, all right, there we go.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Now basketball back on anybody offensive line is going to
play on Sunday at Terrence Steele. It's one back, one
f one fifth of the offensive line.
Speaker 7 (02:13):
I thought that he had had an issue as well.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Now speaking of Emerson Boozer, we got a fifth of
our offensive line ready to go.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Get that. I got it.
Speaker 8 (02:24):
I got you a fifth.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Yeah, go ahead, Mickey.
Speaker 8 (02:28):
No, it's it's just amazing that it's like injuries attack
certain areas like it's a disease.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Right, four of them that are okay. So Geyton is
in concussion protocol, even though coach was noncommittal on whether
we could be.
Speaker 8 (02:47):
Ready until three o'clock either.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Yeah, so, but he did say he's still in concussion.
Speaker 8 (02:53):
And remember when you're in concussion protocol. To get out
of concussion protocol, you got to go do something physical
and then come back the next day.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
It's concussion protocol. Is it an hour by hour thing
or is it a day by day? If you start
the day and at noon on Friday, you're in concussion protocol,
but your team's on the practice field at twelve thirty,
can you get out of concussion protocol to get on
the field by one o'clock.
Speaker 8 (03:20):
If they clear you. When you say, but you don't
get cleared because you have to practice, do something physically, well,
they got to coming up next day. You got to
show up and have no residual effect.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Okay, so there's a possibly two day, but there's a
possibility he could get clear or cleared to practice, go
out on the field and practice, do something on the
field because they were about to practice. And then it
would also, well.
Speaker 8 (03:47):
You don't have to practice, you just got.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
To you have to do something. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 7 (03:51):
What is that?
Speaker 4 (03:51):
And then so it's lost.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
You slap people's face and you don't know.
Speaker 8 (03:56):
Maybe you got to run the violence.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
You have to do something physical, workout, Okay, all right,
and then you have to clear the next morning, right, okay,
So so.
Speaker 7 (04:10):
But you can't, can't, you can't.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Let's put it.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
Running out of time, Mickey's Mickey is saying, that is
not gonna play. I don't okay, Tyler Smith. We're going
left to right here, Tyler Smith. I don't think he's
playing whoa center. He's not playing Cooper bb on. But
your starter is not obviously not all right, and then
right guard Tyler Booker, obviously he's not. So there you go, okay,
(04:38):
So what what do they do for Tyler's If you've
got obviously Hoffman at center, t J. Bassett right guard,
who's playing left guard? If Tyler Smith doesn't play, Nate
Thomas is playing left tackle, If Tyler Guidon doesn't play,
who's playing left guard?
Speaker 8 (04:54):
Ke Keegan and.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Trevor Keegan and Hakeem identity.
Speaker 8 (04:59):
The they're running out of guys to be backups.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
You just it's Sunday at noon. You just got to
be praying on Sunday morning. Nobody gets hurt because of
the game on it either.
Speaker 8 (05:10):
If Keegan's playing, then I energies.
Speaker 7 (05:13):
Have to practice. Just go back, go move.
Speaker 8 (05:15):
And the only other guy, the only other offensive lineman
on the fifty three is.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Cornelie Cornelia Johnny Qui six round draft. So you have
on the practice squad Wesley French.
Speaker 8 (05:27):
So they could promote him, so they would have eight,
so they can bring two guys off the practice squad,
because you've got to have eight offensive linemen active to
promote to elevate two guys off practice squad, so they
could do that or they can they can promote them
and then make them inactive.
Speaker 9 (05:49):
Now, I saw somewhere weirdstat that you know all the
teams that are dealing with injuries, that you know this
the first quarter of the series of the season, and man,
it's just everybody right now, everybody forty nine ers last
night dealing with injuries.
Speaker 8 (06:04):
They weren't supposed to win, right well, I mean.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Kyle Shanahan is the coach of the year going four
and one with the injury issues.
Speaker 9 (06:11):
But the point, but the point is everybody is dealing
with it. And when you your coaches, and I think
right now, for you know, coach Schottenheimer and his group,
it's all about making sure that these guys are up
to speed like they did with TJ.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Bass and brock Hoffman.
Speaker 9 (06:26):
We had our doubts coming into the Green Bay game,
and those were the guys that I think you came
away going geez. That center and right guard was pretty
good in the face of what that defense was bringing.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
So I expect the same thing. I'm not as gloom
and doing.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
What was The good news is that they've been out
all week. It's not like an injury is happening on Friday,
and so the practice on Wednesday, the practice on Thursday.
Whoever's playing left guard has been getting reps in practice well.
Speaker 8 (06:51):
And the other thing is Hoffman and Bass are used
to playing next to each other because they went through
train camp second team offensive line, right, so there's a
little bit of chemistry.
Speaker 9 (07:05):
So Keegan should be right at home and I dentity
should be right at home since this guy's played all
of what preseason together. Kegan, of course, but I'm just saying,
you know, ergy, these are backup. These are pretty much
backup guys.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
And Day was playing tackle in preseason.
Speaker 8 (07:20):
And Nate Thomas was playing tackle because remember Geiton got hurt,
he was out all that time. They like Nate Thomas
and Clayton Adams talked about how he thought he played
awfully well that he had to go in there the
blink of an eye. They were preparing him for that
series in practice to take a series from Terrence Steele,
(07:43):
which he did. And then that's on the right side.
Now he's got to go on the left side. And look,
they scored forty points right, only gave up one sack
with you finished the game with three backups on the
offensive line. Now, you're pushing it with four right, that's
(08:04):
a lot.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
The issue is quinnin Williams on the other side.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (08:09):
Absolutely, it's probably a little bit difficult the way they
play their aggressive defense to double team a defensive tackle. Now,
Schottenheimer was talking about, well, you can slide the running
back over there and depending on where the gaps are,
you know, running back a help, but he's not going
(08:30):
to double team the guy, right, So now your center
guard or guard tackle got to take care of that
big dude. And and he's huge and he's active. You
saw the thing that will did on your Demon Street
on the screen right where he he came off a guy.
(08:51):
He's getting blocked. He came off the guy Williams.
Speaker 7 (08:54):
Yeah, and he.
Speaker 8 (08:55):
Sees the running back to his right and he just
reaches out and makes the tackle. He's getting blocked. He
wasn't blocked. So yeah, it's going to be difficult. So
a lot of it's gonna come down to how you're
scheming your offense, how you're calling plays, how quickly you
got to get the ball off, things like that.
Speaker 6 (09:15):
So that's what I like right there. You saw it
last night in the forty nine Ers game. San Francisco offense.
It's working for everyone in the league who's afraid of pressure.
We don't need to be doing a bunch of play
actions and things of that nature. If you're worried about
your offensive line, then we need to sit back, take
a four step drop as soon as that backfoot hits
(09:35):
were throwing it, just the way they did against us
last week, and the way I saw the forty nine
ers doing, especially on their last drive last night.
Speaker 7 (09:43):
You can blitz all you want. They were bringing it too.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
You can blitz all you want, but if you just
can't get there fast enough, unless you're unblocked right, all
you gotta do is just like we try to do
in the secondary, just devate just a little bit. Dak
or any quarterback can get it off, which is ex
exactly what happened.
Speaker 7 (10:01):
With all people.
Speaker 6 (10:01):
Mac Jones, he's coming off the field. I thought he
was going to throw up.
Speaker 8 (10:06):
Oh I was going to ask all about That's what
I thought.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
So, I mean, you know, if he can stand in
there on one leg, Yeah, you got worried about getting
hit afterwards, you know what's going to happen. But you know,
I think that's a little bit more athletic than Mac
Jones is.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Just a little bit.
Speaker 8 (10:22):
I thought he was going to get killed last night.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
It wasn't a head thing. I think he must have
had a concussion or something, right. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
If his concussion, he would have taken him off the field.
And Adrian Martinez, but.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
You're about to throw up.
Speaker 8 (10:31):
I just got hit so hard.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
He was like, Hugh, I've never been hit that hard.
I was thinking Chris Sims and a rupture's spleen or something,
you know.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
I didn't. I don't know what brings that on.
Speaker 8 (10:47):
And then he finished the game, finished the game.
Speaker 9 (10:49):
I like the game plan that you're talking about. So
many do you hear defensive guys talk about how frustrating
it is to get getting your sack, getting your lane,
try and come after God. That's letting go of the
ball fast. And if Dak that mastered that last week,
as we saw, you have to come into this game
versus the Jets with the same mind state, even though
you may not respect them the same way that you
did Green Bay. As far as the names that they
(11:11):
had on the front and on the back, back in
there's still a team that plays some solid defense and
they have the names that you have to respect. I
want to see the matchup with Sauce and George Pickens.
I mean I want to see. I want to see
if they travel them. I don't think that they will,
but I want to see good on good. And I
absolutely think that our running game has made DAK look
(11:33):
so much better.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
And if you.
Speaker 9 (11:35):
Can get Williams to continue to duplicate his effort, man,
I think you make this game easy for yourself on
the road.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
And you've always talked about this, and we go on
the road.
Speaker 9 (11:45):
We acquiesced to the pressure of the in the building
and the crowd noise and all that. You could take
the crowd out of the game with the running games.
Speaker 8 (11:53):
It travels as long as your offering. The line travels.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
And you know what, though, you know, I've been fussing
about the DBS not having that best next man up attitude,
that other offensive line they personify that to me, they've
they've had.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
I don't care. I'm not afraid. I'm really not.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
I feel very good at the varsity of the d
V officier.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
I'm talking about the JV offensive line. I feel good
about our JV offensive line. I really do, especially after
seeing what our two backups did center and guard against
the Green Bay Packers. I'm feeling very good about this game.
As far as our running game is concerned. I don't
know about necessarily winning how we handle the pressure, but
our running game will travel.
Speaker 7 (12:35):
It will travel.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
The last time that the Cowboys went to the Meadowlands
to play a Jets team, which twenty nineteen, the Jets
were oh and four coming into that game. The Jets
are oh and four coming into this game. What happened
October twenty nineteen, six years ago?
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Just want that game.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Sam Darnold to Robbie Anderson, now, Robbie Chosen, ninety two
yard touchdown. His name is Robbie Chosen. Now he just
got picked up by Washington, and uh he changed names.
Speaker 8 (13:10):
He changed names.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Have a religious epithet.
Speaker 7 (13:16):
Like that, and.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
That's what it is that twenty four twenty two enlightenment.
Let me turn it in, Cowboys. There has never been
a Jets head coach who has lost his first five games.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Never never. I like that. Ever, I like that.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Aaron Glens owing four.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Right, never say never, say never.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
We got an opportunity and he's been losing by some
very close margins.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Yes, say that three of the three of the four
losses have been by one score, so he's got They
have three losses by a total of ten points. The
other game was against Buffalo. They lost thirty to ten.
That's the game. Fields left in the halfway through the
game and Tyrod Taylor came in.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
But this is going to be an aggressive play calling
by the entire coaching.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
Staff for the Jets.
Speaker 6 (14:02):
Oh yeah, they're throwing everything, Wilks, based on what you
just said.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
They didn't want a game. Cowboys come to town.
Speaker 6 (14:09):
They are going to bring everything at us that they
can bring and just hope it all works.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
By the way, earlier in the week, I think I
said that because on my schedule that had three straight
home games for the Jets. That next week they play
at London against Denver, so it's not three straight home games, but.
Speaker 8 (14:26):
They're the home team.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Yeah, so got you in London in London?
Speaker 6 (14:30):
Yeah, So the most important down is going to be
first down.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
And the first down efficiency was better first docking, nicky,
you curd ebra flush yesterday. The first down efficiency, it
were better.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
They were better.
Speaker 8 (14:44):
Third down was an absolute.
Speaker 9 (14:47):
He's got wait a minute, has got to find something
to be right?
Speaker 7 (14:51):
Positive about it.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Nobody's talking about third down. We're talking about first down.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
I meant it's going to be important as our offense.
Speaker 8 (15:00):
If you're good on first down, then it should relate.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
To third down second.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
That's what I'm saying, Like, Hey, they're gonna kick game
if we're talking about it.
Speaker 8 (15:11):
Didn't know they went eleven of fourteen down eleven of fourteen.
Speaker 9 (15:17):
Yeah, I'm sure somebody brought that up immediately after he
mentioned that about first down.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
And one of those times that they didn't they failed
on third down, they got it on fourth down.
Speaker 8 (15:26):
Yes, right exactly.
Speaker 7 (15:27):
We talked about that.
Speaker 9 (15:28):
Yeah, and that's in this game versus the Jets. That's
what I'm looking for in this defense. Getting off the field.
Get off the field guys on third down. First down
is important. Third down is equally important for this deep
get off defensively.
Speaker 7 (15:40):
Yeah, third down get us all down offensively for us?
Speaker 9 (15:43):
I think first first down, man, get off of the field.
Speaker 8 (15:47):
Man does a third down stop count when they kick
a field goal on fourth?
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Yeah? Okay, better than continue drive for a.
Speaker 8 (15:56):
Touch for a touchdown?
Speaker 9 (15:58):
Of course. So what did you guys get from this
running game? Do you fear justin fields as a runner,
and also Breece Hall as a runner. What is it
about their running game because we've been like with b
plus in the running game so far, defensively, we have
been stopping the run over the first four games. I
wouldn't say it's been shut. We shut anybody out on
the ground.
Speaker 8 (16:18):
It might be Brice Hall and Khalil Herbert because Braylan
Allen they put on I R He's out, and uh
go ahead and say it Khalil Herbert, Kenny.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Oh no, it's Ken wang Wu who is from Prisco
Heritage High School.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Matter of fact, thank you.
Speaker 8 (16:41):
And by the way, he hasn't been he hasn't.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Practiced away, he hasn't. But I listened to Aaron Glenn
this morning and he's got a chance to play, got
a chance. He's more of a kick returner, okay, and
if he's been used to running back. He was drafted
by the Vikings.
Speaker 8 (16:56):
So Brice Hall might have to have the whole deal.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Just and they just signed Khalil Herbert off somebody's practice squad.
I can, but he just arrived today and Aaron Glenn
was asked, is there a chance Herbert could be active
on Sunday? And he said, well, he just walked in
the building. But there is a chance. And in fact,
as as Glenn said, when Herbert was at Chicago, they
(17:22):
had him graded right alongside David Montgomery as far as
his ability.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
So the big deal would be finding a helmet that
fits him in a hurry.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
Which gets us to Jaden Blue, which gets us to
Jade and Blue, and finding some shoes that fit him.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
How about that?
Speaker 8 (17:40):
Explain kids, he had some fancy cleats that Jayden Blue
wanted to wear.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I don't an that was the way it was described.
Speaker 8 (17:50):
By shot whatever that thing. Anyway, they had new shoes.
Halfway through practice, he's on the ground. He's got blisters
from wearing Louis.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Yeah. Yeah. So then he changed Shottenheimer and the point
that Schottenheimer was making, he's a young player. Young players
aren't experienced, and they'll do things like what Jayden did yesterday,
which is wear new shoes.
Speaker 7 (18:16):
Tracked them out.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Man, I think that's what he was doing.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
I think he's trying to break them in that I'm
out in practice, broke and broke out. So he figured
out that those were not the shoes to wear. So
that's he got that practice to do it.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
And again figure out those are just for autographs. That's
that's all.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
He's got to take Trayvon Diggs's lead and walk around
all the time barefoot. He rarely wears his shoes unless
he's actually practicing.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
That's good for you.
Speaker 8 (18:44):
He's always called grounding.
Speaker 9 (18:46):
Yeah, just grounding. That's just putting you out down with
some you know new Wade social media terms.
Speaker 8 (18:54):
That's not heading do with penalties.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Grounding No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Scipline no no, I'm familiar with. It's discipline.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
Connected energy of the ground. I mean it must be helping.
I mean, the guy played well last game, didn't he?
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Right, Diggs, Mickey Diggs.
Speaker 7 (19:14):
Digs played well last.
Speaker 8 (19:15):
Night, they said he did?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Yeah, what did your eyeballs?
Speaker 7 (19:21):
It hurts? It hurts, It hurts, So I feel good
about it.
Speaker 8 (19:29):
Let's see if he can play. It's limited all week
in practice.
Speaker 9 (19:32):
What is it that doesn't He's gonna probably go to
be like that throughout the season.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
He's going to be injury report all season long.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
It's gonna happen.
Speaker 8 (19:41):
Yeah, but you hear the rest of what shotten, Harmy
p least tell about. He came in to talk to
him and they agreed to disagree on the style of
defense that he wants him to play. So he's still
not happy.
Speaker 7 (19:55):
Oh so he wants to play what man play man?
Speaker 8 (19:57):
Okay, well good, But when you go to the line
of scrimmage to chuck the guy, make sure you don't
fall down.
Speaker 7 (20:03):
That's okay.
Speaker 9 (20:04):
You called him that he made a mistake in front
of the whole world everybody the last game.
Speaker 7 (20:09):
We're good.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
But I can respect that.
Speaker 9 (20:12):
I can respect a man coming in and talking to
another man about his problem.
Speaker 8 (20:16):
That's what said.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
That's what I love. That good stuff.
Speaker 8 (20:20):
It's great. See if he starts, he's not They didn't
start last week, came in on the nickel, and then
he eventually ended up at outside line, outside cornerback.
Speaker 7 (20:33):
How we looking at the cornerback?
Speaker 8 (20:35):
Uh, well, if he's good, then you got three guys.
Speaker 7 (20:41):
Was having some issues. How's he feeling now?
Speaker 8 (20:43):
He was listed as full yesterday.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
Okay, that's good.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
So that's good.
Speaker 7 (20:48):
That's good. And then Diggs have a tough game?
Speaker 8 (20:51):
Got ready, Yes, he did have a tough game.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
That first touchdown was I want him to Yeah, I.
Speaker 8 (20:57):
Had what he hadn't played in three weeks. I want
to see how well he how much he missed two games?
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Didn't he did?
Speaker 10 (21:05):
He?
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Yes? He did?
Speaker 9 (21:06):
Okay, okay, go ahead, No, no, no, no, no, it's just
it's not it's not the same for everybody.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
What you make.
Speaker 9 (21:13):
It's like, you know, with with Diggs, it's his off
season regiment and not playing football. Then the guy that's
out then you know, I just I want equal for everybody.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
That's all he had.
Speaker 8 (21:23):
Been here working at.
Speaker 6 (21:28):
Right you Okay, that's different, different, equal, that's different.

Coming up next sec.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Some good stuff. Got some good stuff coming.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
All right, let's talk Jayalen Tolbert here. Ever since I
got a question, Yes, sir, when you left Richardson Berkner
High School and went to Grambling, how long before you
made an impact at Grambling?
Speaker 7 (24:52):
I would say the first game, I'm.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Not surprised, did you play?
Speaker 3 (24:57):
I said?
Speaker 8 (24:59):
And the first yeah, I am.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Oh, I'm so happy I asked you that question, because
let me ask the rest of the room. What happened
when Everson went from Grambling to the NFL. He made
an impression right off the may I may picks the
first year.
Speaker 9 (25:20):
Eleven eleven picks, the first all right.
Speaker 7 (25:24):
Leading the league interceptions while I'm still on the bench.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
Believe it or not, this is getting me to two
players that could make an impact on Sunday. One of
them is Jaden Blue. Okay, Jadeen Blue had to wait
his time at Texas. It was his third year where
he made an impact there. That's why I have said
this week, Okay, I want to see it with Jayden Blue. Okay.
(25:52):
There are certain players that when I look at the draft,
I look at players like Everson Walls. When he went
to Grambling, he made an immediate impact, and sure enough
he went to the NFL, he made an immediate impact.
All right, don't take you to Jaalen Tolbert. If you
look at Jalen Tolbert's history at South Alabama, it was
a couple of years before Tolbert got his feet wet,
(26:15):
you know, and at that age for kids, you know,
it's you might be a late bloomer or whatever. But
he was playing baseball, yeah, okay, And there's other reasons
why things happen like that. And but by the time
his last two years at South Alabama, he was tearing
it up. So what track has he taken as a
third round pick in the NFL. Took him a little
(26:37):
time the first couple of years, and now you're seeing
the real Jaalen Tolbert, what they projected him to be
when they drafted him in the third round. And so
that's why I think you're seeing a very good version
of Jalen Tolbert right now.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (26:52):
So if I'm reading this right, you're saying everybody doesn't
hit the ground running, right okay.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
But it doesn't mean that they're not going to be
a good play Okay. It's just people you develop at
different times. And there's so much more that goes into
it than just what we see on the field.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
And plus you've got other players out there trying to
make the team as well, so it depends on how
they failed or how they succeed. And that you know,
if you see an opening as a player, somebody messes
up in front of you, see an opening and hopefully
you'll jump right in there and feel that spot.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
What game did you start first?
Speaker 7 (27:23):
Oh, Saint Louis?
Speaker 8 (27:24):
How many five? Five games started? If I remember correctly,
Dorset didn't even start right away?
Speaker 4 (27:32):
No, Brandy White, Brandy White.
Speaker 6 (27:35):
Stop that, yeah, that that comes from. That's the style
of the coach himself. That doesn't mean there was one,
all right, that's right, that's just And of.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Course it was a different era back then because you
had the player for life, there was anything like yeah,
that's right, yeah, And so you also had players on
the back end of that that were Bob Lily's still
playing when Randy White comes into the league.
Speaker 8 (28:04):
So mentioning so Tolbert Tolbert and Blue can Blue do
some of the things with his speed, different position that
you're gonna miss if Turpin's not out.
Speaker 6 (28:17):
That's what I'm looking at and you know he doesn't
have to line up in the slot. You can still
have the same matchup with him just lining up out
wide in the.
Speaker 8 (28:26):
Back from how many times have they thrown that pass
to just take.
Speaker 7 (28:32):
Out there and isolate them.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
You see that McCaffrey touchdown last night. You see what
caylan scheme that up on the goal line?
Speaker 7 (28:39):
Shift?
Speaker 4 (28:40):
Yes, I mean he came out twenty three personnel, So
you had McCaffrey and use check in the backfield, and
you had three tight ends and they come to the
line of scrimmage bunched up in the rams. They mirrored
that defensively, and what happened and so they shifted and
they got McCaffrey on a linebacker and it was so
(29:00):
much separation that.
Speaker 7 (29:04):
Five yards.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
Right, It was schemed up.
Speaker 8 (29:07):
Since you brought it up. So would you have gone
for it on fourth down?
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (29:12):
In that situation?
Speaker 6 (29:13):
Yeah, yes, I would have to.
Speaker 8 (29:18):
You know what I think was in his mind?
Speaker 11 (29:20):
Now?
Speaker 4 (29:20):
It was fourth and one?
Speaker 8 (29:22):
Uh yeah, but you know what was the four.
Speaker 6 (29:27):
Yard By the way, I finally looked at that play again,
Uh huh. That could have scored guys, which the one
what Prosses called him right, Dak could have scored.
Speaker 4 (29:39):
Even Dak said he could couldn't score.
Speaker 7 (29:41):
If nothing else, he would have been way inside the one.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
Even Dak said, he I'll give you.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
I gotta give him more than you had a blocker
out there on the wide receiver. You had the linebacker coming.
How good is he? How good is he? So do
you to do is take the blow?
Speaker 7 (29:56):
You might spend. You don't know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 8 (29:58):
Do you think this went into the ram mind that
they went for it because if they would if they
kicked the field goal or whatever, what was I think? Oh,
they were never going to get the ball back, right,
The game was going to run out of time, right,
So you weren't going to get a chance to go
(30:18):
if they matched you.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
Well, it was different too in that they were behind. Yeah, okay,
and so they just decided that they could get the
one yard. They'd already gone forward on fourth down.
Speaker 7 (30:30):
Earlier on the drive, so they keep doing.
Speaker 4 (30:32):
But they didn't run a you know, forty blasts.
Speaker 8 (30:35):
Like right up the middle.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (30:37):
I didn't like to play call.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Yeah, and neither did Sean McVay. And he was beside
himself after the game because he took the ball out
of his best player's hands, and his best players would
be Matthew Stafford. Matthew Stafford, Williams had already fumbled on
the goal line. O.
Speaker 9 (30:55):
Man, that talk about Alfred Collins.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
How about giving us some love to Lord Alfred Collins,
a rookie second round draft pick. Man, that.
Speaker 7 (31:06):
Was a hell of a play.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
Williams didn't do it.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Man.
Speaker 7 (31:09):
Man, it's just all this all up in his grill
and he's all right.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Shawson loved to Jalen Tobert.
Speaker 9 (31:16):
Well, I mean, it's I think it's the curious case
of Jalen Tobert. He's a guy that's been around for
years that the fan base and all the coaching staff
has been rooting for, waiting on this guy to have
a breakout. Last year, even people when they said Jalen
Tobert led this team in touchdowns, you know he did,
he did, But it was like, but even when you
(31:36):
say that, it's people like, what how does it?
Speaker 7 (31:39):
What does that matter?
Speaker 3 (31:40):
You know that, do'na tell.
Speaker 7 (31:41):
You he led a bad team.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
He let a bad team.
Speaker 9 (31:44):
But he's he's in a situation where even when he
came up big in the Green Bay game, it was
like that's what we've been wanting, that's what we've been
asking for. And now you're in another situation where look,
Cavante Turpin is down and Cavante turping. This season of
four games has shown you that he is a nightmare
four teams they have to account.
Speaker 7 (32:04):
For just in return.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
Yeah, he's a crossing whatever he runs the route treat Mickey.
But now Jayalen Tobert, that's that's an extra piece of
that role that he has to carve out and Dak
has to trust him.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
He does, he has to.
Speaker 7 (32:19):
That's that's what you know this now.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
I think I complained about it Giant's game, you know,
we think I guess they were getting doubled on the outside,
and he's he went at Tobert probably four consecutive times
in the clutch and of course Jayleen came up with
the clutch catch.
Speaker 7 (32:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (32:36):
But what we see with Joeln is it's like almost
like it's unfulfilled expectations. You want him to do well,
but you know he can do. You're looking for better
for some reason. I'm always looking for more. I'm starting
to see it. I am starting to see it because
once again that catching he made that made that a
(33:00):
meaning the throw out of the throw, I mean, I
don't know which one was better because off his back foot,
backfoot going away fading, I don't know how forty something
yards look like. I wasn't sure exactly how how long
the throw was. But for Jalen to have the wherewithal
to come back and make that play, that was not
(33:22):
an easy catch.
Speaker 7 (33:23):
I don't give down how good the pass was.
Speaker 6 (33:25):
That was a very difficult catch to make and to
be that aware, the dB had no idea what the
hell was going on?
Speaker 8 (33:31):
Right, and he got both feeding bounce.
Speaker 7 (33:33):
Got both feeding pretty much easily. He made that look
easier than what it was.
Speaker 8 (33:38):
So how do you feel about the third receiver flowing away?
Speaker 3 (33:42):
I feel good about him. I feel good about him.
Speaker 7 (33:44):
Do some things.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
Yeah, I like the way I like the way that
they used him.
Speaker 9 (33:48):
He was on the reverse they you know, a couple
of plays there you could see, you know where he flashed,
And it's all about Dak trusting him as well. But
coming into this game, guys, I'm not gonna know. Look,
I'm gonna just say it how it is. George Pickens
number three, make sure he eats, make sure at the
end of the game is thirteen catches, you know, one
(34:08):
hundred and fifty yards, two touchdowns. That's what everybody else
does with their superstars. That's what you know. Cincinnati, even
though they have two really good Jamar Chase, they justin Jefferson.
Guys like that, they get force fed. And when you're
in a situation where your other superstar wide receivers out,
make sure that this guy goes out and victimizes a
(34:28):
Jets defense that is not going to have an answer for.
And when we were talking about it yesterday, he knows
the AFC, he knows these guys.
Speaker 7 (34:36):
Can't wait for this matchup.
Speaker 6 (34:38):
The defensive coordinator, I'm sure is going to be trying
to game plan him. This is gonna be pretty personal.
I think this is gonna be personal between he and
that second there. But but what I'm trying to look
for is for Jalen Tobert to show me that he's
more athletic than what he's shown us.
Speaker 7 (34:57):
I want to see some yak.
Speaker 6 (34:58):
I got to see some yak we're gonna needed unless
he's gonna run every route right at the chains. He
doesn't break tackles at all. He makes good catches, he
doesn't break cat he makes good. He runs good routes,
but can they set him up to where he can
make plays after he.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
I just don't think he's that type of player.
Speaker 6 (35:18):
And see, I'm hoping that you're wrong, and I'm hoping
that I'm wrong because the way you said that, you
hate to say it.
Speaker 4 (35:24):
I mean I like him by the way that's in
his role. Yeah right, he's that's I think he is
nothing wrong and there's nothing wrong with it. It is
who he is. But I don't he's not ceedee lamb.
You know, he's not a guy you.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
Could be ceedee lamb. Ish, you don't have to be
give me, give me something, lamb.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
Even I didn't watch a lot of him in college highlights.
I didn't see a lot on highlights where he's getting
a lot of yards after catch.
Speaker 7 (35:55):
And so if you if you have a guy like that,
then you hope that he's.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
I mean, there's another third another third round pick from
ten years ago or whatever, Terrence Williams.
Speaker 7 (36:03):
What was he you know.
Speaker 9 (36:06):
But he still had the potential to break one off
on you if you missed speed. Yeah, I mean he.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
Had that, but he would he didn't have make you
miss run after catch.
Speaker 9 (36:16):
Right, so Jalen Tobert and with the drops right, And
you can see this with wide receivers when they have
some drops, it's in their head. And so the first
thing is secure the catch, more than anything than making
a move and thinking about anything.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
Secure the catch.
Speaker 9 (36:31):
And he's been playing like that for years where it's
just like man, I got to catch his ball first,
and so making a move after the fact is an
afterthought to him.
Speaker 6 (36:40):
But I cannot ignore the fact that he has made
huge catches for us. The Giants game that was a
huge was it fourth down? Was that fourth believe? It
was come on man, you know, And of course with
bailing back out on that pass, you know, you got
to give him some love. You gotta give him some love.
That's why I'm trying to change my thought process about him,
(37:04):
because people thought the same thing about me. I'm looking
at the interceptions that we had in eighty one. We
had all these interceptions. We had not one person at
a touchdown. We have not one dB return to pick
for a touchdown. We were just good at what we did.
Speaker 8 (37:19):
Just like Toby, you catch, you couldn't make anybody.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
If you played wide receiver, you would be Jayalen Tobin,
I would be.
Speaker 6 (37:29):
I said this, I want more d On than Everson Walls.
I'm sorry, well that's what I need.
Speaker 8 (37:33):
I think the other thing, and we haven't discussed it
that they're probably going to be using a lot of
two tight end offense just to help the offensive line, right, and.
Speaker 7 (37:42):
You got to keep the crack out of the game.
You gotta keep off the feet. Yeah, all of that doesn't.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Okay, I just thought of my pick to click. All right,
very good, and that's coming up next here on mix shots.

Better about it?
Speaker 7 (40:39):
I am because I do well. I do well. I
do better than everybody.
Speaker 8 (40:43):
What are you looking for their bill?
Speaker 4 (40:44):
I got to look up the season, the all time
series about to make my pick, I got to look
up the all time sat New York.
Speaker 7 (40:53):
I gotta taken to.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
Find a game to mimic. Here we mixed the click
you know the first time, By the way, the first
time the Cowboys played the Jets was in nineteen seventy
one at home and the score of the game was
Dallas fifty two the New York Jets ten. Just a
trip down memory lane there for you.
Speaker 8 (41:14):
And they were only a couple of.
Speaker 4 (41:17):
Super Bowl so Joe Willie would have been playing for
Maybe he was hurt. I don't know all right yet,
anybody got a note they want to pass along before
we go to our picks to click and picks for
the game at anything else we need to know about Mickey?
I think I'm good, Okay, no mix shot to wrap
up the weekend.
Speaker 8 (41:36):
It'll be interesting if they think Mingo is ready?
Speaker 4 (41:41):
Yeah, Jonathan me and Kayln Carson is another one.
Speaker 8 (41:45):
Because you know they only have like Pickens Tolbert Illinois.
Speaker 3 (41:58):
Proper.
Speaker 4 (42:00):
They got elevated last week, So do they do that again?
Speaker 7 (42:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (42:04):
Or is Mingo ready to go? Because you've got to
have more.
Speaker 4 (42:06):
Than three so we've got to make a roster move
to get him active.
Speaker 8 (42:10):
If you on Mingo, if you do that and you
can't put down an offensive lineman.
Speaker 3 (42:15):
No, that's not going to happen.
Speaker 4 (42:17):
You've got two more elevations left on Cropper, right, So
maybe you wait a week, maybe you do. Yeah, I
would think he probably did, probably do. Yeah, that's the
other thing, is I mean Mingo's first week.
Speaker 8 (42:30):
Yeah, Usually they make them practice two weeks before.
Speaker 7 (42:33):
Ye I was going to say, you quit him out there.
Speaker 4 (42:36):
Yeah, fifty two, yeap, fifty two to ten. All right,
so ever, since you want to get us started here,
you're picks to click and you're picked to win.
Speaker 6 (42:49):
I'm gonna go with my group that has the next
man up attitude, and that's our offensive line, looking for
Nate Thomas and how Off one and Bass to kick
ass the entire game, just like they did against Green Bay.
It's gonna be a tough game, but I'm looking at
winning thirty to twenty thirty to twenty thirty twenty. You
(43:13):
gotta keep up the scores. We have to keep scoring.
We have to keep scoring. It's gonna take thirty points.
You look at it and say forty, but it's gonna
take thirty points. They're gonna get They're they're gonna play well.
But the Jets are gonna bring it everything that they have.
They're gonna come out with the trickiest and most clever plays.
They'll probably take a page out of Shannahan's book.
Speaker 7 (43:36):
Number in Shannahan's book. It was Matthew Stafford's book when they.
Speaker 6 (43:39):
Set in screens for wide receivers as they come off
the line of scrimmags. I believe that was the Jets,
I mean the Rams that did that all of that stuff,
which I think we should practice that as well with
the wide receivers that we have picks coming off the
line of scrimmage on big third downs and things of
that nature. But they're gonna put everything, pull everything out
of the bag that they have. Thirty to twenty Cowboys
(44:03):
offensive line gonna have to keep the crowd out of
the game. Pick the no penalties, no penalties to put
us in trouble. Penalties on the road will kill you.
Speaker 9 (44:14):
Pick the entire offensive line. So I didn't know y'all
could do.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
This on this show. I am learning to show my
show the entire group. So okay, I don't know.
Speaker 8 (44:24):
Wanted to take Nate.
Speaker 6 (44:26):
It's okay, he got them all.
Speaker 9 (44:30):
So look, we've been talking about Jaydon Blue all week.
I'm not gonna take Jaydon Blue. I'm gonna take Javonte Williams,
the starting running back, and because I just think that
he's the guy that takes the air out of the
stadium makes this game easier for Dak.
Speaker 3 (44:45):
He's on a roll right now.
Speaker 9 (44:46):
He is the guy that also that could catch it
out of the backfield. He is mean finishes runs. I
love having this guy on our roster. I wasn't impressed
at first, but I am now. Javonte Williams is my
pick to click score. I'm gonna go twenty four seventeen Cowboys.
Speaker 4 (45:02):
Win twenty four seventy. Yes, second straight week that you've
got this defense giving up less than twenty points.
Speaker 7 (45:11):
Jill, don't do that.
Speaker 3 (45:13):
I don't do that. I don't do that.
Speaker 4 (45:15):
Yeah, don't see nobody see You're the last is half
full for you.
Speaker 3 (45:19):
Try.
Speaker 9 (45:20):
You can't just do this weekend and week got something
good has to happen.
Speaker 4 (45:26):
All right, Mickey, what are you thinking?
Speaker 8 (45:29):
After much thought on this, I've got the twenty three
twenty twenty three twenty defenses.
Speaker 7 (45:37):
Well, I'll check.
Speaker 8 (45:41):
And my pick to click is going to be the
NFC Special Teams Player of the Month.
Speaker 4 (45:47):
Brandon Aubrey.
Speaker 9 (45:48):
All right, okay, so you're picking. You think it's gonna
be a ton of field goals in this game, that's right.
Speaker 6 (45:53):
It could be on the road on the road. It
could be. That's a good I like that. That's a
good call, all right.
Speaker 4 (45:59):
As I'm mentioned earlier, six years ago, the Cowboys went
to met Life Stadium and they lost. They lost to
a winless Jets team twenty four to twenty two. As
Dak Prescott recounted that game and yesterday outside the locker room,
he lamented the fact that he tried to throw it
(46:21):
to Jason Witten on a two point conversion and Jamal
Adams blew that thing up and the Cowboys weren't able
to tie that thing up and force overtime in the
final minute. And you remember what happened after that, I don't.
Speaker 8 (46:34):
It was all they I told you, so they should
have signed Jamal Adams or traded for him whatever was
going on.
Speaker 7 (46:40):
Back Yeah, no, just don't have anymore.
Speaker 3 (46:42):
No.
Speaker 4 (46:43):
And in fact, the Seattles gave up. The Seattles gave up,
gave up Seattle for him. So here's what's going to
happen this time. Cowboys go back to met Live Stadium,
and the Cowboys win the game twenty four twenty two.
(47:06):
But it's another different tight end, not the starting tight
end who scores the winning touchdown for the Cowboys Dak
Prescott to Brevan span Ford to win the game in
the final minute.
Speaker 8 (47:22):
My two tight end offense.
Speaker 4 (47:24):
There you go. I was going to go Jayden Blue.
Speaker 3 (47:28):
I was going to get hurt. That wouldn't hurt too much.
That hurt too much to do it.
Speaker 4 (47:31):
I was saving Jadan Blue for you. Now you are
you myself. I'm going Brevan span Ford my pick.
Speaker 3 (47:40):
To click twenty four.
Speaker 7 (47:42):
I like it. I like it.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
She went seventeen.
Speaker 7 (47:45):
I got it.
Speaker 4 (47:45):
So, just like last week, we all have the Cowboys winning.
Speaker 3 (47:49):
Yes we did.
Speaker 4 (47:50):
Could they tie for a second.
Speaker 7 (47:51):
Straight no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 4 (47:53):
Could they go overtime?
Speaker 8 (47:55):
No, third time in four weeks, which you know what,
and we haven't pointed this out, but those overtimes are costing.
Speaker 7 (48:04):
Them physically, Yes they are.
Speaker 8 (48:07):
That's twenty minutes of extra football in three weeks.
Speaker 7 (48:10):
And we don't have that kind of lexy in our roster.
Speaker 8 (48:13):
No, not anymore.
Speaker 4 (48:15):
No, by the way, did I mention that my idea
on overtime if you play, if you're tied after the
overtime period, what they need to do regular season only
have a shootout, have a field goal shootout.
Speaker 3 (48:29):
We win.
Speaker 4 (48:30):
That. That's why I like it. Okay, they start at
the fifty yard line, okay, and Brandon Aubrey versus Nick
Folk in this case, and you back up five yards
after they make them.
Speaker 8 (48:43):
Or you're starting with a fifty yard you start with
a fountain line.
Speaker 7 (48:48):
Yeah, okay, fifty yard kick.
Speaker 4 (48:51):
Or here's the other idea is okay, you have a shootout,
but you don't. It's not the kickers or the punters
that can participate in the shootout. It's gotta be another
player on the team.
Speaker 3 (49:04):
No, man, you do it fantasy football.
Speaker 7 (49:09):
Stuff.
Speaker 8 (49:11):
He sounds like the time in training camp. It was
the last day last practice and Jason Garrett uh made
the offense pick an offensive lineman to catch a punt.
Speaker 3 (49:25):
So as it looks, the punt.
Speaker 8 (49:28):
Wasn't like a big high sky punt, right. I forgot
who they picked, and the guy ended up Yeah, he
ended up on his knees to catch it. Because if
the guy caught it, they were going to cancel something. Right, Well,
they had already planned we were going home that that evening, right,
(49:49):
but he caught it, It's like, all right, we're going home.
Speaker 4 (49:53):
Actually, actually, seriously, I do think after seeing another overtime,
went went oh, last night. Okay, all right, where the
first team that has the ball kicks a field go
just like the Cowboys did to your point, okay, and
this would have changed what the Cowboys would have done
last week. I think regular season they ought to have
the old overtime rules where whoever wins it, if you
(50:14):
score a touchdown, you'll win the game. You playoffs. You
both teams can have the ball. Okay, but in this
case regular season games because what you're were seen in
the last couple of overtime games. I watched team that
started with the ball, they go ahead and take the
points to get on the board and trust their defense whatever.
And the Cowboys last week, if they could have won
(50:36):
the game at the four yard line with a touchdown,
they would have gone for it.
Speaker 7 (50:39):
I believe, Hey, you're gonna turn this in the Hunger Games.
It's gonna get work.
Speaker 8 (50:44):
Did you hear him explain that that he because he
didn't like his third down call? Schottenheimer, He said, basically,
that was his third or fourth down call, so he
used it on third down. So I don't know that
he didn't have another call, but that was the favorite
call there and he misread how they were going to
play their defense like he thought they'd be in man
(51:06):
and they weren't because Pickens was going to run a
slant if you saw, and they safety was there to
double him, and he tried to go back.
Speaker 4 (51:16):
To the left.
Speaker 3 (51:16):
Done just say you agree with me?
Speaker 4 (51:18):
It's okay, all right, I don't does it? The joy
the game on Sunday, and we'll be back at high
noon on Monday to talk about another Cowboys win.
Speaker 8 (51:29):
Not a tie, Go got.
Speaker 3 (51:32):
A tie, Cowboy Nation, I hope your team wins this.
Speaker 2 (51:35):
It's been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and the
Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
