The following. He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Are you ready for a break? Are you ready for a break? Absolutely ready for a break? Yeah, and so much for that. It's time for The Break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com WA with Nick Eatman, David Hellman, and bar Garcia and Derek Eagleton. It is Friday, October twentieth, twenty seventeen, Season thirteen, episode

number fifty eight. Welcome to another edition of The Break, Live from the s WBC Mortgage Studios at the Star. Of course, Grumpy Dave's sitting over there scowling at me. And I don't know why not know what I did today? But anything, whatever I did, I didn't do anything, alright. Why you gotta start like that because you're sitting there looking like just slip on your face, like, m it's early and I was out late last night. Oh it's always good, tiny Jim, thank you. How are you doing today? Amber?

I'm good. I'm tired, but I'm good. I am Like my eyes doesn't want to shut. You're such a dad, Like get up, sleepyhead. I was already been awake since six o'clock. I know I was out late and I'm not tired. Let's go. You got out early, friend, Yeah, cooked, breakfast, hated? Yeah, absolutely good. Nick, How are you tell these young people how to do? It's what do you mean? I know, not a good example. It's firmly on our side of this, probably so Nick's got a morning person like at all.

Really definitely don't want to get my first text from you. Why did you get your first text from me? Yes? Was that your first text? Yeah? Seven fifteen? Yeah, that's number one. You often text people before seven fifteen. No, it was work, Yeah, absolutely get you guys going, can't get in there too. I mean it was it is you and me and camp. Yeah good, that was good. We all Hey, all right, let's talk some Cowboys football.

Let's start first with this injury report, and it's dwindled down to basically one loan part person that we've been talking about, Cheeta Bay still on the injury list, still did not practice yesterday, Tyren Smith practice fully expect that he's going to play. What should we think at this point about Cheeta Bay? You know what I'm gonna let Dave answer. I'm just a little bit over the top here to go off. I mean, if you want to do that quite ready, I think I think this guy

needs to go on injury reserve. I really do. You've been saying that for a few weeks and I kind of scoffed at it at first, like okay, whatever, But now I'm starting to wonder if if maybe it's not a bad idea, but you don't really need roster spots. That's why it probably doesn't help you much. Right well, I mean, but you need him to play, right, because

they clearly don't really want been Wickery to play. I mean, they've been trying different ways to get this done without him playing, so and I don't know, I mean, I just feel like you need somebody now. Now, Cheeto. He's interesting because he can play two positions, and you just want to see him on the field. And I guess, if you know, if they could just put him on the put him down for the four five weeks, you know, and it's not eight weeks, well it's fun. I mean,

hindsight is always twenty twenty. And I definitely disagreed with that when you said it. But if they'd put him on IR right after the Denver game, right, he'd almost be back if I think this would be his fifth week on IR so he'd be able to practice next week and he'd probably be able to play against the Chiefs or something like that. But they didn't do it, and it doesn't seem severe enough that you need to

do it. Just you don't think can't get right. I don't know, well, but it's it's not like, you know, it's not like he's been out for five weeks. He'll be out for a week and then come back, and that's what I was saying yesterday. Just always seems like

he reaggravates it. But it's one of those things that you think you're feeling good, and you are feeling good, and then you get out there and play and hearing this again and you feel it kind of you know, one row movement, he just pulls your muscle and which is your hurt again? Which is why you know, Garrett and then the coaches always talk about how deliberate I

say cautious. They insist on deliberate. But they want to be deliberate with these soft tissue injuries because you know, a lot of times, you know, the player can be his own worst enemy in that scenario because he wants to play. He feels good, so he goes out there and he's not actually ready. But I you know, Cheeto's a rookie who has been dealing with this for most of the season. He did not practice yesterday. I would be stunned if he plays in this game. So you

have an open roster spot. As Nick just said, it doesn't make a ton of sense to me to call up a defensive lineman when you're not really facing a lot of injuries there, Like if you called up Lewis Neil or Richard Ashe he might even make him a game day inactive. So I do it at all, right, So Mark quiz White is a guy that makes a lot of sense if they decide they need an extra cornerback, you know. And also when you think about defensive tackle, me, they pie Pie is out. But they they've done it

without David Irving and had that many guys. So now basically Irving just comes back for Paya, and you still have Price, you still have Collins, and then you have whatever you want to do with Crawford inside, So it kind of is the same. They want to go that route. Positive news for the injury report of Tyren Smith YEP um practiced in full and so you know, this might be one of those things. I think it was three or four years ago, maybe more than that, Brady James,

Keith Brooking seemed like every Wednesday did not practice. And then it's a lot more than three or four years ago. It was probably that's a little bit of Remember when I mentioned that I found the Rolando Jersey at the sale. I'm looking through the rack and I come across a fifty one and I was like, they're selling wilbur stuff. No, it was Keith Brooke. I was like, this is old. Like Keith Brooking. I was still in if you gave and I was in college when played here, you gave

an Ablincoln for that? Would you get change? I hope so I don't. I didn't. How much is that? Which is what? How much are you charging for a Keith Brook I would hope less than five dollars. I'm thinking that's a five dollar I'm thinking at the height of his career it should have been around five dollars. Like, I don't know that he was ever a real got it got it Nate Jerseys run off. All right, let's be honest here, our favorite broadcaster. How much is his

jerseys going. They had a whole rack of Romo stuff that was ten dollars. Oh, but I think do well, I think that I think that's a good sales I think that's that's a special situation though, where you know, it's the sample sale for Cowboys employees like I feel like they wouldn't sell it that low to the public. Maybe, I don't know, Yeah, that's probably true. I don't know. We get a lot of special deals around here. Yeah, we get perks, perks, Sorry about it? Love it all? Right? Um,

so let's talk about it inactives we've got. Um, I think there are probably four names. Well, let me back up. I think there are probably three names that we feel really good about saying will be active, and I think that would be Cooper Rush, Darren McFadden, and I think we all agree Cheetah Bay will be the third. Now the next I would think, and I wouldn't get your opinions. Noah Brown, I assume he's going to be inactive, But you guys agree with that, and you think there's a

chance he's active this week. I mean, he's one of those guys that it would be better to go backwards and try to figure out the other spots just because they do want to play him, they like him, they want to play him. It just doesn't really make a lot of sense, right. I think there's a bunch of guys that fall in this category, and let me just read off some of the names, and you guys tell me. I know, I definitely think he's in or no, we

should probably hold on him. Justin Lillard, Cavon, Frasier, Banabian, Wickery, Taco Charlton, Byron Bell. Possibly. These are all kind of names I'm throwing out there. It's gonna be tough this week because the Cowboys have had a lot of injuries up until this point. They're virtually injury free at this point, so right at this point going into this week, so now it makes it a lot tougher to figure out those inactives of those names. Knowing that again we have

three that we feel pretty certain will be there. Who or the other four you think would be there? I think we need to go Byron Bell. Think Byron Bell for sure? You think for sure? But I think that where it stands right now, you have you have Tyron, because last last game Tyron was injured way more you know, he missed a lot more time than this, if you're a lot more confident he plays. Yeah, and Lyell was missing some time too, and he's been full as well.

So I just feel like you can go with Chazz and maybe get that if Chatz had to go in, he wouldn't get hurt. You don't first, Maybe you sit, Maybe you sit Chazz what I just can't mooney al right to see his face? I just forgot his name, you know. Maybe you sit Chaz Green anybody no, and then go bell and bells, bells, bell and backup reps at left tackle. You think they would do that, though I don't know. Can Bell go either side, right or left tackle? He can play all four spots on the line,

all all four non center spots. I feel more secure in the fact that if he has to come in, he'd finished the game. That's yeah, So let's do it. I'm I just that, But well, I will say this though I don't think he's the better player. I think Jazz is a better player. Okay, are we going with what we would want or why we think they would do. I think we're going with what we think they would I'm always ever go ahead. I'm sorry I just it's

tough this week because of Tyrn. I mean, and you don't have an obvious answer, but I think you have to sit one of the offensive lineman. You're not going eight this week. You I don't think they have room with everything else they gotta do, and with Chazz's injury history and the fact that Bell has been the guy they've been looking at with Tyrn sitting, I am just leaning towards Chazz as as the guy that they tap

there that's enacted. I could be wrong, Okay, So one of those two Chas mcgreen or Byron Belly that gets you to four, Um, Noah Brown out of those, or you think nor Brown is still and maybe that bottom seven. I agree with Nick that it's I think they want Noah Brown to be active, but it's hard to justify it, Like you kind of got to make the numbers work other ways. One guy I think March Lillard is he's definitely I think he's inactive. Okay, so that gets you

to five? Need two more. Cavon Frasier was a guy that was inactive a couple of weeks ago, and so what do you what do you think about him? Well? I think he leads the team in special teams tackles, and I think that's a little bit weird that they put him on um inactive last week. But I feel like you need him um. I would like to keep him on the roster or on the end if they miss him much when he was inactive, you think I just no, I mean, not necessarily if you no, Let's

be really honest right now. Okay, this would be easy if Taco was a fourth round pick. This would be easy if you're right about that. If he wasn't the twenty eighth overall pick. Yep. So I mean I get why you don't want to sit him, but but do you need the body too? I mean, I think there was a question when you were talking about you know, him or Tapper, but now the Tapper's not in the mix. Do you kind of want that extra defensive end body,

you know? You know? I think when you go back to last year and you remember that, you know, they were really high on Benson Mayowa and they signed him and he was a free agent acquisition, and then they benched him for three weeks. And I think if they need to get someone's attention, I think they would do that. And yes, Taco would help help him to be out

there and play something. But you know, if if it doesn't work out to go win this football game, I think that you know, he could be an active and I think they would do it though, if they really, if they if they really needed to do it, and then it sounds like they kind of do this week. I think you can put him in active. And I don't get the sense. You guys talk to the coaches and the players in locker room quite a bit, and

so you'll know more of this than I would. But I don't get the sense that the team is at all panicked by what they've seen from Taco. I don't think they're I think they're kind of like kind of the plan. Like I honestly believe they think when he came in the door, this is what they were going to get for until they got him to the point where he was ready to play significantly, and how to think that. I don't think they're panicked about it, but I bet they thought that they could get more out

of him than they have these feelers. I mean even and I've been I've been saying I've been on the Taco team this whole time, saying, you know, patience, he's raw, he needs to develop. You shouldn't be from the word go. You shouldn't have expected this guy to be beasting right away. But I mean six seven snaps per game and like one quarterback pressure, let alone hit, sack, tackle, whatever. I mean, that's you should be able to do more than that.

If you're a first round pick, regardless of whether I'm your pick one or thirty two, you're special kind of talent if you're a first round pick. And I don't think they're panicked, but I bet they're disappointed you. But isn't more? Yeah, but I think what's gonna happen here? And we did this back in was it twenty twelve? Was that the Frederick twenty thirteen was Frederick Frederick and Terrence Williams. You know, it's like, all right, would you

rather have this guy? You know? It was Eric Reid or maybe the shri Flode two for one and so, And I think you really have to think about this time. Kevin King was there and they could have taken him

as well. But they I think in their mind that they knew that they were gonna they were gonna go ahead and get Jordan Lewis probably ahead of what other people did and and we're comfortable with And so you're gonna have to go, all right, Taco and Jordan Lewis versus Kevin King and then whoever you could have gotten in that third round there. I don't know if Basham was there, Rivers or he was the third probably, I mean, none of the pass rushers that were there that are

but it's gonna be a combination there. And I think I think Jordan Lewis right now is playing better than Kevin King, and King's was starting for the Packers. So to wrap the conversation around or no, that's okay, but you basically need two more guys out of these four, Noah Brown, Banabian Wickery, Cavon Frasier or Tackle Charlton you need too. I'd go with Noah. Yeah, I don't want to sit Noah Brown, but it just makes sense. I mean, how mun who's your last one? Am? And then I

would say Taco. I mean, honestly, I hear everyone's worry on Twitter, and I see it all the messages and everyone panicking about him, and I get it. But at the same time, it's like you look at the guys they've got right now on their defensive line and they're pretty good. So I don't think the Cowboys, you don't see them worrying so much in that aspect, just because of the other guys that they do have and that

they've been doing a decent job. And also DeMarcus Lawrence was I believe the thirty fourth pick in the draft was and so twenty eight. I don't remember DeMarcus really coming in and making a lot of big plays early. He got hurt, and the reason he got hurt is because Tyrn Smith threw him down like some kid's doll and he got and he got hurt and that was it for most of the season. Comes back, played okay, and then in the playoff game had a couple of

nice plays against Detroit and Green Base. You're like, all right, get something to get excited about. But it wasn't like he came right in and was and was really good from the start. So it's a development plan and he needs to he needs to play, So he would be my last resort every week. I would try to get him in if I could. I agree, Yeah, I mean Taco or Ben. We're not answering the questions. That's fine. Amber said she would take Taco. He said Taco or Bane Taco and Banet. No I would I would sit

Noah Brown and Ben Wickery. Okay, so let me Yeah, I like that too. Tell me what what what does your defensive backs look like? Now? With Ben Wickery and Cheeto out, you've got your starting corners or Brown, Scandrick Um huh and Jordan Jordan Lewis. Yeah. So those those three, then Safety you got Frasier are not in order. But Frasier, Jones, Heath Woods, seven guys I'm missing. So I'm trying to think a corner. Are you missing anybody? I don't think you are, And I don't know you're going into a

game three guys. You're going into a game with just three corners. Yeah. Now, of course Wood slides down and plays Uh in the slot from time time, but I don't know how I feel about that as as my fourth corner. Yeah, I think the last one's got to be getting me Camp. I'm gonna go back and correct it. Taco. So you go with Tacco, you leave Ben, Ben mcreyan and I actually I still think Frasier might be the

guy because I think you got enough at safety. I understand what you're saying about what he does on special teams, but I don't know that they missed him the game that he was inactive. And I'm personally wanting to see more of Woods. So if if he's out, then that gives me more time to see Woods back. I want to see more Woods too. Yeah, that's one way or the other. All right, let's take our first break. Let's come back, and I have a question for you guys.

It's going to be one simple question with six different answers that you guys are going to have to put in numerical order of most important to least important. We'll do that when we come right back.

We're gonna talk a little bit about the Cowboys and San Francisco forty nine ers. That game kicks off at three or five Central time this Sunday, Cowboys looking for

a win. They are on two games losing skid here, so they need a win here bad to a team that has not gotten to win all season, but being close and awful lot. So here's what I want to do. I'm gonna ask you guys one simple question, and then I'm gonna lay out six different answers, and I want you guys to put them in order of what is going to be most important down to least important. All right,

you'll understand when I give you the question. Some question is if the Cowboys lose this weekend, it will be because and here are your six answers, and I want you to put them on in order of the most important reason why they would lose, down to the least important reason why they would live. You're like, you're asking a lot. I know, I know the Amber will be able to handle this. I'm not so certain you're going to be able to handle all six. So I'll repeat them for you as much as you want me to.

When you start. I will even walk you through it if you want me. When you start, throwing numbers in there. And so when I get so, here we go. Are you ready, Nick? All right, So if the Cowboys lose, it will be because here's your first answer. They could not control the force buckner in the center of the defense. Here's your second answer. They could not stop Carlos Hide running the ball. Here's your third answer. They didn't tackle

well or consistently. Here's your fourth answer. They couldn't rattle the rookie QB and he got comfortable. Here's your fifth answer. They could not run the ball themselves. And your final answer. The wide receivers couldn't get open and they dropped too many balls. All I care about on that whole list is the Carlos Hide one. So that's number one for you. Yeah, right, isn't that one? It is the same almost the same as no tackling. Yeah, I was gonna say that too.

Would be what actually I thought about when I thought about the no tackling was more what you found in Denver early in that game where the receivers and you talked about this yesterday with a guy like Pierre Garzone. He's not a big play guy, but he certainly catches a lot of balls and if you're not tackling, well, he can take up four yard five yard game, and

now it's a fifteen yard game. And that's what we saw a lot of the early parts of the Denver game was it wasn't that the receivers were down feel making a lot of catches. They were catching five six yard balls, but they weren't able to tackle them, and they turned that into a ten or fifteen yard game.

That's what I thought about. So I agree with you. Yeah, the running is important, but I do think it affects the passing game as well, or we've seen it affect the passing game here with Don all Right, he's done, he got all six. Cool. I only need one, but not the game. I'll let Nick go first, all right, So it's most tell me, tell me again, what so in order of this one, and actually you can go

bottom up. So let's start with the one that's least important to them losing the game, and then all the way up to the one that will kill them if they least. There's the least important, Okay to me, because I think that is as good as he has been, he's gonna face something better this week, even if he's on the rights, his rights. Fine, I mean, this just him. They'll block him, all right, that's my least concern. I'm not saying he won't be like this is what's gonna happen,

because it's gonna happen. Yeah, this is it. Like no, No, I'm just saying that these six. Okay, that's the one I'm least least concerned about. Right then do I keep going or yes? Okay? And then before that it'll be no tackling. Oh so you feel good about the tackle, well sort of, but I mean I really feel like it's gonna be more about the Carlos Hide things, so which I got him a little bit higher. So overall

on the tackling, I think they'll be fine there. And then the one I'm somewhat concerned about would be receiver drops. I think they'll kind of do a little bit better there. My third one would be rookie getting comfortable. I think once he starts getting into a rhythm and then maybe he starts running the ball a little bit, that could hurt him. Carlos Hide was number two, and then number one be that they couldn't run. That's the biggest concern.

If you can't run the football against this team then, and I know that they're better on against the run. But that's where the Cowboys bread and butter is. They've got to run the football. That's that's number one. If they can run the ball, they can play downhill, they can they can force the rookie quarterback. And because then if you run the ball and get points, then Carlos Hide is not going to be running as much. You put more pressure on the quarterback. Run the ball. I

like it, amber, Um, let me see. I would go with I know I'm missing one. I don't know how I missed it again after Nick just going over it. But you'll drop that one in. Yeah, I say the ones I have, all right, when you said I can't run the ball, you're talking about the Cowboys. Cowboys can't run, Okay, I would say Carlos Hide. His number is the most least. I'm going up, yeah, highest to lowest high. Okay, So Carlos Hi, Yeah, Carlos Hide wide receivers dropping the ball Okay.

Then I would go with Buckner Okay, then no dackling and then Cowboys not being able to run the ball. All right, the rookie QB rattle, the rookie QB. So where would you put him? Um, that's when you miss you know what. I would put him right in the middle. Okay, So you're saying that if the Cowboys rushed for one hundred and seventy five yards, they'll still they could still lose the game. That's not going to be a big factor. It's happened before. I know, I know it's happened before.

But that's what you're saying basically. Okay, I mean, if they lose to me, the Cowboys will lose this game because of themselves, Like it's not because the forty nine ers are gonna dominate them and you know, beat them up and score all these points and stuff. If the Cowboys lose is because once again it was their own fault. They made errors that they shouldn't have made and they didn't get the victory. Yeah, turnovers should be on here too,

and that would be up there really high. But really I think so I think if they turned the ball over like she's saying, if they beat themselves and give the forty nine ers a short field, which is given them some confidence, I think that would be something that would you know, that would be really tough for the Cowboys to overcome. That's my number one thing would be

turning in the ball. The only reason I didn't put that on this because they don't seem to have been a team this year that's gotten a ton of turnovers. Turnovers come in bunches, even though but they tell me, even though the Cowboys have given us some costly turnovers, they this team doesn't seem to be one that takes advantage of getting a lot of turnovers. But anyway, Dave Good, give us your your list. Here's the thing. And I

wasn't being a smart alec. I mean I was, I was, But all I care about on that list is stopping Carlos Hide. And I'll tell you why, because everything you just said, all those factors, I think playoff that if the Cowboys can't run the ball. This is the twenty seventh ranked past defense in the league. I think Dak Prescott this is a case where I think Dak Prescott can carry the Cowboys if he needs to deflorest Buckner

gets the better of the Cowboys. Again, I don't think you have to overwhelm them with the running game to be able to win this game. And I've seen Dak play well, despite Aaron Donald being on top of him for a whole game. So that doesn't bother me. CJ. Bethard. If he's one dimensional and Carlos Hides not running the ball, I don't think he's gonna be in a groove. I don't think he's gonna throw the ball fifty times in

this game and just look great and win. He's only gonna be good if the running game and Carlos Hide is chugging? Um what what else? What did I forget? Um? Wide receivers, Wide receivers? Yeah again, Um, but that goes to your point. Like you said, I think Dad can can can do it. If the receivers aren't doing their part in this defense does not wow me. I just I'm not I think the Cowboys will be able to

score points in this call will. I maybe not at will, but the Cowboys should score twenty seven or more points in this game. I don't think that's asking too much. Um And yeah, I mean I could be wrong, of course I could be wrong, but that's just how I feel right now. And so the tackling doesn't bother you at all. Well, and then tackling goes back to Carlos Hide I mean, if if they're not tackling and stopping him,

then yeah, that's gonna be a problem. So I mean, if you want to throw that in there, shure, that's too. But I think if you bottle him up and don't let them move the ball easily like that, which will make their quarterback more com bowl, which will eat up the clock, tire the defense out as we've seen before, then I think I think they'll be fine if they can play respectably against the run. That's so the key here is you got to stop Carlos Hide. You stop him,

you win the game. It's I think it's the only unless they just unless they're just plus five in turnovers and it's one of those like wacky games. Yeah, that's their only hope to win, as if they can just batter the Dallas defense and just run the ball. And I think Carlos Hide is capable of doing that, especially the way the Cowboys have played defense the last couple

of weeks. So I hope, you know, I hope Sean Lee and Hitchens and the defensive line eat their wheaties because I think that's everything else I think will take care of itself. If they can do that. It's clear Carlos Hide as the guy that you think is the biggest nemesis for the Cowboys. Amber and Nick, who you think it's the biggest nemesis player, Who's the player you're most that you would most think the Cowboys need to be concerned about neutralizing in order to get a win.

I would agree he was my number two guy on that list. I mean, I don't think C. J. Anderson is one of the greatest backs in the league, and he looked like one. I think Carlos had a better back than him. Yeah, I do too, So I than Aaron Jones too, Yeah, Aaron Jones. And you know, I mean and Todd Gurley is one of the good young backs and he he had one of the best days and ever against the Cowboys. You know, I mean I

went back and looked at it. Only three players. He's the third player ever Gurley was to go ninety and ninety on receiving and rushing in the same game against the Cowboys. Not bad. Yeah, first since Edrin James. Yeah, I was gonna say it was one of those backs from the Ravens, one of the backs from Ravens. Do that? Not ninety ninety Zeke didn't do that against the Steelers last year. I just said against the Cowboys. Sorry, my bad,

I miss, but yeah he did. Okay, he did do that, but he didn't have a whole lot though after on top of that eighty three though, I know, but you only need six more. Yeah, I think he had ninety five yards in that in that as a receiver. But I'm just saying he had a great game against the Cowboys. But you know Anderson did as well, Aaron Jones did, so was it? What was last year? They didn't have any one hundred yard rushers on him? None? None, So now we've got three in five games. Awesome, lovely and

stop him tackling wasn't higher on the list. Stop him? And I assume limited, like I said, limiting high. What's your what's your list? One to six? What's my list? Give you my list? Um? I would probably I would probably say, um, I want to go bottom the top. I would say the least important of those is rattle the rookie QB, because I honestly just think at the

end of the day, he's that's a rookie QB. You ought to be able to beat him, even if he gets on a little bit of a role, it's going to depend on too many other things for him to win. I think the next one I think would be um the wide receivers couldn't get open and drop too many balls. I think that's somewhat of a problem. I don't think it's a big enough problem against the Gain, a team that that I don't think will score whole bunch anyway.

The next one would probably be control the Forrest Buckner, because I think even if your defensive tackle, even if defensive tackle is giving them fits, I don't know that there's anybody else along that front that can take advantage of that as well. So if the Cowboys give him a little help, then I think you're you're probably okay. The next one I would probably say would be didn't tackle well, not because I don't think it's important, but I just think the others are more important. And then

I would finalize it with the last two. And I think stopping the run with Carlos hit is lesser than the Cowboys getting running the ball. I think if the Cowboys get into a groove, I think last year their ability to run the ball was the reason why everything else worked. And I don't mean just running the ball from the standpoint of the numbers. I mean at times when they want to be able to run the ball,

they run the ball. Being able to run on first downs and get significant yards on first downs, those things helped last year, and I think this year those are two areas where I don't think they necessarily I don't think they can necessarily just line up and run when they want to, and I certainly don't think they're running

very well on first down. So I think that if they can get back into a groove where running is what they do, when they can do it at will against teams, even when teams know that they want to run, then I think that's when everything else will Forfarm. And I think the defense will be better because of it. I think the passing game will be better because of it.

If you go back to last year and pick like the most five pivotal plays that changed the whole season, I think that Navarre Bowman getting hurt against the Cowboys was one of them. Really, Yeah, they had control of that game. That was a dog fight game that they were I don't know if they were leading at that point, but it was definitely a close game and he got hurt, he was out. The next thing, you know, it was Zeke for twenty, Zeke for twelve, Zeke for fifteen, ze

Zeke touchdown. The whole game change And that was really the first time he really had a well I guess the Bears game was before that. Bears and then and then first road game that he really played well and and I think I think it changed everything there. It's kind of changed their their dynamic of hey, we are a team that could just kind of run down your throat, but when Bowman left it changed it all. So he's definitely left, and he seemed like he's a pretty good

factor for the Raiders. You know, he comes in there and starts calling plays. That's something to watch in this game, though, is Ruben Foster? Who's you know, he's not one hundred percent. He's a guy to keep an eye on, but you would think that makes them a little more susceptible if

he can't go. He's one of the reasons why they cut Bowman, right, Yeah, I mean just because he's the young guy and he's going to play, and Bowman didn't want to sit and right, but you know, he made the right choice because he went to Oakland and he was calling plays on a short week. I mean they what they signed him. He's playing on Thursday night and he's the defensive leader. He wouldn't have done that for Dallas. I don't know what his role would have been, but

it wouldn't have been calling plays. Yeah, good point, but still would have been nice to have he was making plays out there, Yeah, whatever, would have been definitely nice to have.

like that voice. Sorry, well, you know you guys didn't like the fact that I was just trying to get through the read. Yeah, I thought that was a good read. Actually it was good. Amber didn't like it. Ambers in these so doesn't work. It doesn't matter, does it. It's not you think man like it. I don't know. I'm I don't know. I think I think man like you told me I'm not in the demographics for this. I'm saying, okay, do you think man like that voice you just made?

I don't care steer us into the road. I just sometimes I like to just sit in this kind of moment fails, just to see how it goes. Because there's usually something funny that comes out of it, you know. All right, let's let's get into some questions. You guys call us two one four eight seven two twenty one O two again it's two one four eight seven two twenty one O two, or hit us on Twitter at Cowboys Break. We got a call from Josh and Florida. Josh, what up? How you doing? Man? Pretty good? I just

quick question for you, guys, Jonathan Cooper. Are we is that a Is that going to be like a permanent change or we're gonna still see We're gonna see Chads Green in the future. All right, Thanks for cal It's funny you say that. Jason Garrett is never gonna He's never going to admit that something like that is settled because it's have your best Wednesday, have your best Thursday. There's always competition. But if I tell me John, it certainly seems like Jonathan Cooper has taken the starting left

guard job. I mean, he's working with the first team this week, he's started the last two weeks. Last time they played, Chaz was completely healthy and he still started. And that's you know, Garrett basically, he's like, well, there's always there's always a competition, but Jonathan Cooper will be working with the first team at practice. It's like you can just say it, man, Like you can just say it.

So yeah, for the for the time being, uh, you know, barring an injury or some really bad play on his part, it seems like he has the job right now. Coaches say that stuff it when it's convenient for them, right. But like when he says, I don't like to compare players, you compare players every second of the day. That's what you do. You compare the fact that Dak Prescott is better than Kellen Moore. So that's why he takes all the I mean, it's always about comparing players. So the

competition doesn't want to compare players publicly. He just doesn't want to have a sound bite of him saying something that could be perceived as Jason Garrett didn't want to talk about the mechanics of the read option in his press conference yesterday. He was like, well, we don't want to get into the strategy of all that, and Todd Archer was like, asked him right there, He was like, what could you possibly think you're going to give away about how you hand the ball off? To a running back.

I see the look on to Oh, it was great, and like it's just like, come on, man, you gotta draw the line somewhere. Ye, turn off the recording. Let's talk about that off off the record. Yeah, all right, let's let's get another question. Let's get a question from Twitter. Now, Okay, this one is kind of long, so just bear with me. Does Joe Looney have quote unquote a prayer of a chance at getting any snaps at left guard other than an injury happening to Green or Cooper? He played an

extended goal line short yardage role last year. Is he nowhere near Green or Cooper's level? If we were gonna see that happen short of injury, I think we would have seen it by now. Like he's pretty firmly entrenched

as jumbo guy slash backup center slash emergency guard. I mean that during training camp when they were trying to figure out what they were going to do there, and that's what I'm saying Andre Geraud's name, they gave every single guy on the team that they thought could do it a look, and Joe wasn't really and none of them, which you know, and you know, no, no, prayer of a chance. I don't. I mean, you know, yeah, I'm not trying to sound glib or whatever, but I don't.

I don't see that happening unless something drastic happens. You think his face has something to deal with being like, are you tough enough for this job? Definitely not, because he's just so jolly. That's wrong with that? Asked the question. It's silly, So you know I love him. I love him, That's why I love I love I think he's I think he's great. But I honestly don't think that would disrespectful that Zeke Elliot's silly. He's good, Joe, there's nothing

It's pretty good. Are you kidding? At a point? No, it's not the same kind of seiliness. Okay, Zeke, you're trying to say, You're trying to say that Joe is is more goofy than he is goofy. You can't compare the two. Zeke is a goofy dude. Have you spent time in that locker room like he's a weirdo? Um No, not the same level. There's nothing more terrifying than when Joe Looney calls the huddle for the second team offense. Just if anybody wanted to know what he do. He

barks huddle like, but it sounds demonic. He's like, like you can hear it from like fifty yards away. It's terrifying. Oh, I don't tell me, don't tell me, Joe. It sat like serious, listen for it. The goofy guys also, Oh, I love watching him because as goofy as he is, when he's in there and he takes a role of being aggressive and you know he's playing tough, it's like a completely different guy. But it's still hilarious to see it. Yeah, that was like the day when he got into the fight, Like,

it's like Joe fighting? Why is Joe? What are you? What did somebody do to Joe to make you want to fight? Okay, guys, do you guys think that Ryan Switzer will have his first career touchdown and kick punt return against the forty nine ers? No, hope. Nick said they're the best in the league at punt coverage, right, they do. I haven't seen anything this Jay that you know you can't have to see it. Let's get a phone call from Horse in Atlanta. Horse, what up? Hey,

what's up? Guys? Hey? They've been listening to you, and I really love the shows and especially the the alterney that came or appreciate that. Thanks. Hey. One thing I think that you could ask your list Derek is coaching of blowing time management because I believe that they lost that game last week because of that play call. I mean, if he runs that ball, we win the game. They can't, they don't have enough time. We've win the game if you just run that ball and you let them use

their time out. So I think that is key. Second of all, we've really got to get better, I think, and Nick, you've you've mentioned this before. We have to get some big name players on defense. We can't just have a bunch of no name given a bunch of effort, which is good. We want effort, but we also want a lot of talent. We need to the Forest buttoners from Nebron Bowman to go along with Sean Lee so

that we can make plays. And I have a question for you, what would be if we had to draft right now, what would be the position that you feel that we were mostly receiver, linebacker, safety, you know, decent of the end. What would be your number one position regardless of where we drafted, you know, feel like you're going to get a very good player. What would be your first point of attention to that? All right, yeah, I appreciate it. Thanks for the call. Can I can

say one thing real quick? I still don't believe if they you can make a definitive call and say, if they would have run the ball, they win that game. I think when Aaron Rodgers on the opposite side of feel, I don't think you needed more than forty seconds. But you know that's just my opinions. It's a little too simplistic to say, if you run the ball, you win

the game. But there's more they could have done. To me, no, absolutely, absolutely, And I you know I've agreed with the whole point of they should have run instead of throw the ball, just because they could have taken that extra time out and that does change how the package would have to run that last that last drive. I say this, I say this all the time, and I'll say it again. I think from Monday to Saturday, Jason Garrett's phenomenal at what he does, like the messaging and the keeping people

on task, all that stuff. I don't think I don't think he's that awesome of a game day coach in terms of like time management, situations, adjustments, stuff like that. Like, I don't think that's his strength as a coach. When you say that, though, um, I look at this defense and I do think, well, this is gonna sound crazy because its defense has been so bad this year. But I do think that what you notice a lot is, at least this year, the first drive they usually give

up a score. After that, the defense tends to do whatever they do. I don't know if it's adjustments that they're making, it they're settling in or what, but it seems like they get better after that first drive. Now, of course they still give up a ton of points, so I'm not I'm not saying this defense by any means is a great defense, but I think it does fly a little bit in the face of them not making and I know this this gets leveled against Marinelli

as well, of them not making adjustments. I think they do, and I think they get they start. They tend to show those moments when they go from giving up too many giving up scores and then kind of settling in and stopping making stops. I mean, I'll can see that. Really, I'm time and game management is that stuff that drives me crazy. But it's most fans will only say that and critics or whatever, they only really say that when they lose, because nobody looks at it and goes great

game management there. You know, how many games did they play last year? Were they want at the end? I mean they had a lot of close games. They manage the game well, no one ever says good job Jason Garrett. Well, yeah, people the negative, that's what I'm saying. I mean they went, they at a game in Philadelphia, fourth and one, They could have kicked a field goal and take the three point lead, or they said, you know what, we're gonna go for the touchdown, and they did. They went won

the game and that was a great job. In hindsight, it was great game management. But it doesn't ever get put on game management until you lose it. Well, and I would argue, I don't have the stats to back this up, but I would argue, and if I went back, I'm confident I could find it that there's situations where you're like, well, probably wasn't the best way to play that,

but it doesn't. It's a footnote because you won the game, and so the obviously these things really only rise to the point where you're talking about it on a podcast if you don't win, right and I'm sure there's times when they did exactly the right thing to do and they still lost the game. Absolutely, it would works. I mean, yeah, they would have. If they would have run the ball, they would have less time for Rogers. I don't think there's a way unless they're just a breakdown and coverage.

There's probably not a way that they lose the game there. But you know, he's got to get to the forty. Well, but they could kick a field goal and tie it and then we'll see what happened. When you say breakdown and coverage, we saw that happened last year. We got for a seven yard touchdowns. What I'm talking about, Oh, you're taught. If all they had was a chance for a hell marriage, I'm saying that we saw that going to lose the game. If they would have run the

ball there, they probably don't lose the game. In regulation. I still think Rogers who could have had enough time for a field goal and then we'll see what happens there and maybe he misses it. I mean he's missed two extra points, so I would have taken my chances there. It's a total cop out answer, but it's true. You really can't one hundred percent assess what you need in the draft until free agency is over and done. I mean,

right now, DeMarcus Lawrence as part of this team. He might be here on a franchise tag, he might be here on a long term deal. He might be a Philadelphia Eagle next year. I have no idea. And not only that, but I think you also have to know who's available, because sure, if you're going to say, well give me this position, well, what if that position, the player that you're getting is not as good a caliber as another position where it's a much higher caliber player.

But he's available. So I think I think it. I think there's a lot more you have to know than just to say. But if if you would have heard, let's say that the draft has done it, we got a badass player. He is going to be a pro bowler for the next ten years, and you say, man, I hope he's a that's the question. That's what he was asking. Well, and I didn't. I'm totally comfortable answering that question, even not knowing, because I think regardless of

what happens in free agency. Defensive end will be a need for this team. I think linebacker is probably a need for this team. Guard, and then I'll throw safety in. There is probably the fourth thing. Man, I think number one might be wide receiver. I can see what happens. And I mean, wait, you're number one. Like if you said I can't justify it as number one either, that's hard, tim and tell me why. I'm not saying it's not a need, but I can't justify it as something you

need to draft in the first round. Well, like you said, free agency comes first. Let's see let's see what the Cowboys decide to do in free agency. Let's see what you know if they do what they do with the cornerbacks and decide, Hey, we're going young, We're gonna let all those guys walk. You're not letting guys. You're not letting guys. What are you doing? What do I mean? What do you have to do a wide receiver? Like? Where what is? Where's Rice? Right now? Is one guy

out of six? Let's go, let's go to the top. Dez. What are you doing with Dez? Keeping him? Keeping him? But you've talked about the fact he's cost. He's gonna cost you a twelve millions gonna cost about it? So you got that decision to make Terence Williams is one how on a what three year deal? Three more? You

think des and Terrence are here through twenty eighteen? Okay, and then you can probably have those conversations in twenty nineteen twelve million though you could, there is there is legitimate reason to have at least question whether they would make the decision to cut him or not. I would be surprised. I would too. I would be surprised too. But and I don't know if he's the right candidate

to be restructuring and all that kind of stuff. But don't because you don't want to touch that just because you want to want it to run out when it runs out, want it to be amenable to you. Yeah, because I don't have it. I'm not looking at the numbers right now, but I'm reasonably confident that you can. You can part ways with him in twenty nineteen without

it's killing your cap. And so I don't want to reach eat twelve this year and just eat it, play him and then have that conversation if you need to, if he's still not justifying that in two years. I believe you could save twelve million dollars this year if you could if you cut him on June first? Is that right? Yeah? I would actually get a surprised Yeah, I would too, because but as much as people want to give Des a hard time, I still think Dez

is a title. He's a top six or seven receiver in this league, and so and I that's right, And I'm not trying to cut him at all. But I think it's the decision that the Cowboys are looking at. But the thing about it's more than just say you says you're gonna save twelve million, Well, what are you also going to have to pay to get you a ride receiver in here? Yeah? Yeah? Is he going to be better than Des? Right? So it doesn't really man, And that's all the all this. I mean, Yeah, And

you're not going to get Julio. You're not going to get el Odell Beckham, like whoever you want to put above him, You're not going to get that guy. You can say, you can say the same stuff about Terrence, like you could you could part ways with him or make it work, But is the need to upgrade that more drastic? Than trying to get pass rushers or line linebacker. Scares me because you don't know one hundred percent what Jalen's gonna be, that's gonna be great next year. You hope,

you hope, you don't want to play. Anthony Hitchins is in a contract year, Damien Wilson is nearing the end of his contract. Sean Lee isn't getting any younger. So that I mean, that's something that I look at as concerning if I had a chance to get a top notch player, I would want it to be a safety. I just think they haven't really had a good safety so long. And if you give me an ad read, is it one of those out there? Sure they just

scrow on. I'll take one of those. Get I want that guy, somebody that that you know is gonna make a lot of plays as a physical player, he's gonna get you know, he's just a ball hawk, just knows where to line up up and line everybody else up. Any of those coming out of college draft guy, it's I honestly, it's too early for me to do. I don't if I thought about it, I'm sure unless you got one of those coming down the pipe line, safety. Not probably not in twenty eighteen, but eventually. Um, what

I want, probably not in the first round. I want to spend like pick what's whatever, say their third round pick is like in the seventies. I want to spend that on a guard. I'm with you on that plug and play mid I mean, you know, Trey Turner, who was actually from LSH was the guy they would have drafted if they hadn't traded up for DeMarcus Lawrence. That's what I want. I'd even take a second round on

a guy like that, Gabe Jackson, do it. Just got a big extension in Oakland, second round, third round pick. I would absolutely do it. Yeah, but coming yeah, because they're not guarantee when you get you know, a guy like Chas Green in the third round that you're he's just gonna come right in and play. And I'm gonna ask a crate. So I'm gonna ask a crazy question. Though.

I would you also, and don't want to get too far to draft, but would you also at what point do you start thinking about your left tackle that's got back issues? At what point do you start thinking, we gotta we gotta consider this, because right now, even if you brought in somebody they could, at the worst be a swing tackle for you. I'm not ready to have that conversation. There's a lot of positions. That's also the nature of the NFL, Dave, you said it best earlier

this week. This NFL, it's structured so that you can't fill every position. That's how they set it up. So you can't fill every position, so you always get Every team is always gonna have holes, and you got to make tough decisions on where you want to spend your money. Okay, we spend it everywhere. That being said, you you want to get a new left tackle, I'm just asking. I wasn't saying that, all right, but I'll trying to cut all the cowboys best players right now? Well I am not.

At some point, you give it a dack to gotta get a tight end, and that's for real. You gotta get a tight end at some point, right man. I don't I don't even want to have that discussion. This episode, Nick and Derek cut Winton as and Tyron Smith just wipe them all off the roster, just start over, right. It's funny because they're like, I didn't cut Jason Witten. Roster right the future. I didn't you would think that the Cowboys are like two and eight with how much

we're talking about this right now. But that's they're not season three done. Huh two and three, two and three. There's a lot more football to play, guys, and they're actually gonna make the playoffs. Well, they gotta have this one. That was me that said it. Yeah, I said they gotta have this one. If they're gonna make the right about that, they do need to have this. I will panic on Monday if they're not. If they definitely, yeah money. If they lose this game, they're not gonna make the playoffs.

There we go. I'm gonna like mark it down, circle it and right. All right, So let's get to our picks. Let's get to our picks. Yea at a time. You forgot it's Friday, didn't you. Um I need a pick. Let's start with Amber. Amber, give me a pick for the game. Thirty twenty eight Cowboys win. Yeah, thirty twenty eight Cowboys and Dorian Lewis makes an interception and it's gonna be a game changing play. That we go. So I'm talking about I got Jalen Smith getting a turnover.

I think he's gonna he's gonna do the swipe. Yeah, he'll, he'll He'll have a couple of swipes in the game. He's gonna have a couple of big plays. It's gonna be his best game. That's tends to happen when you got oh got hitchings bag. Yeah, Lee bat. Yeah, he's gonna play really well in the game. He'll have a couple of nice players to turnover. I think the Cowboys will win. It'll be it'll be close for a little while. I think the Cowboys will win twenty seven to seventeen.

Twenty seven and seventeen, all right, Davey, I'm thinking they get back to basics a little bit here. I'm expecting things from Jason Witten in this game because it's the forty nine Ers defense. Like I said, they don't impress me. They might be able to do some things against the run, which is why I look for dak to look around. Witten should be there. He's always there. Seems like they tried to get him more involved after forgetting about him for a couple of weeks. So I think he's gonna

score two touchdowns. Okay, just because it'll be easy and it'll be there for him, and it'll be close in the fourth quarter, but the Cowboys will score and it'll be thirty one seventeen, and like people looking at home will be like, Oh, they handled him, and it was actually way closer than that. Yeah, okay, I actually think I'm on the same page with you on the Witten, but it's a different guy. It's it's more beastly. I think it's gonna be what we've seen a lot of

teams do. They've tried to take those two out, especially in specific situations. I don't know that. I trust that San Francisco has the personnel to be able to do that. And so because of that, I think that business gonna beginning where they get beastily going. They had two weeks to kind of figure out how to get him more involved in the offense. I think this is the week he gets going. I think the Cowboys roll, and I you know, I think it will be close for a while.

I actually think by the time you get to the fourth quarter. I don't like it when you predict that they're gonna roll. You thought they were gonna roll in Denver, and they laid the biggest egg I've ever say, Denver, you said they were gonna beat Denver hand. No, no, no, late, go back and really listen to the tape. Yeah, I promise you. I thought I said that one time this year, and I thought that was when I was talking about I want to say it was the Rams, but I

said the Rams. I'm pretty sure you said that, like by the fourth quarter of the Denver game, they would be well in control. I'll go pull it up. Pull that up for me. I want to see that. But I do think I do think this game, I don't. I just team hasn't earned you saying that they're gonna roll anybody. What I said it was, I said, was it. What I said was it would be close until the fourth quarter, and I think in the fourth quarter they pull it away, like, okay, score, I think the final

scores thirty four twenty. I don't think they shut them down, but I think it's I don't think at the end of the game it's going to be a close game at all. Okay. Now that also that also flies in the face of what we've seen from San Francisco, because San Francisco has lost most of their games by a very very small margin. So if if if they for you to believe that, then this probably is gonna be the most close, much closer game than any of us as have predicted. I just think the Cowboys, And maybe

it's maybe I'm giving it cheap predicted. Maybe maybe I am giving the benefit of the doubt to the Cowboys based upon what I saw last year. And I just keep waiting for them to get back to that, and I'm expecting them to get back to that, and at some point either I'm gonna have to come off of that. Well, they're going to get back to this week, You'll, I mean, yeah, I don't want to hear it. If they don't, then I'm coming off of it for sure. By next week,

I'm picking the other team. Yeah, I doubt it, You'll. Friday, Derek is gonna be like, no, can't. They're gonna still win. Pick both sides of the game. You can't talk, Nobody can talk to him. Only did that one time and it was against the Packers. And come on, guys, seriously, Oh my god. All right, guys, I appreciate you guys joining us. We're heading off to San Francisco. Cowboys will kick off three oh five pm Central this Sunday till

then for Nick Eatman, Dave Helmett, Amber Garcia. I'm Derek Eagleman. This has been The Break live on Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio. This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
