Talkin' Cowboys: Final Thoughts On The Fins

And over the course of the next forty five minutes, we are going to figure out what the Dolphins would need to do to pull off the shocker on Sunday against the Cowboys. And in the meantime, Jason Garrett just had his press conference. Jerry Jones just talked on the flag Ship Station the Fan and we get started with that. First off, I wasn't able to listen to Jason because I was listening to a little bit of Jerry. Caught

the tail end of Jerry. Anything coming out of the Jason Garrett press conference we need to know about off the top, uh, injury wise, we can probably start there then if I getting nothing new on that front, yeah, get my list here, so we don't forget anybody, but the same guys that have been out still out, still out, Tavan Austin out, Tyrone Crawford out. We knew Michael Gallup was out. Anton Woods sounds out. He's out, and a Xavier Woods is maybe likely out. What do you think

I think he's out? He's out. So we got five guys right there, right now, we gotta figure out that six Gifford Gifford. So yeah, we'll just have to figure out one more guy. So one of those off lineman, Yeah, probably Redmond Redmond or Brandon Knight, Yeah, one of those guys. Yeah, everybody else gotta have a uniform on and play number. Okay, so let's start at the safety position. How are they upsetting the loss of Xavier Woods. Thompson will be your

Staran Thompson. Yeah, But then you also you're also getting Donovan Wilson is getting some work with the twos. He's playing two uh two with the defense, but he's also running scout team stuff, so he's working his way back in both ways there. But yeah, I think it picks up a special team he picks up a special teams. Yeah, that's exactly right, because, uh, we'll see what happened. Thompson is still when I was talking to some guys this morning,

Thompson's still on all the special teams. But if they have to go with if they if he for some reason, you know, they say they need to give him a little bit of arrest. Uh, you know, for all the special teams, he plays Wilson. Like Mickey said, Wilson can jump in there and play those spots too, So out to be a good thing for him as well. Okay, let's move up to the defensive line, and both Tyrone Crawford and Antoine Woods out both out. Yeah, and so okay,

this is where I think. This is where again talking to some folks, that could be interesting because I feel like this my gut feeling that Quinn could start, because Quinn has been running with the first team. But could they be running Quinn with the first team to get him work and then they start Doran's armstrong. That's the you know what I'm saying, Like you know, if you're if they're saying, there's eight reps and usually the first guy gets say six of those reps. Well, that's been Quinn,

you know, so you're thinking, ah, Quinn's the starter. But could they be using Quinn? Could they be getting him ready or could they be using those reps to get him in shape and then turn around and start Dorn's armstrong could be I'm very curious about his snap count because Mickey mentioned, you know, you kind of hearing that

maybe it's more in line with what Tank got right. Sure, thirty something snaps, but he did have training camp, or at least part of training camp, so and the hand doesn't seem to be an issue at least the first couple of days in practice, so maybe he can bump higher than that. Regardless of who's starting, we'll see. Gut says he's going to start. Mickey's right on the reps,

and but we'll see how it plays out. Is that armstrong Joe Jackson over there as the backup guy, but that's losing Crawford hurts you a couple of spots because it hurts you to start right in, but it hurts you in the nickel. Mickey brought that up yesterday and

now that's gonna be okay. Did you have to move Collins to get hill on, you know, all kinds of things, so you kind of have to work through just for that one little bit of one injury that you have to Crawford and then you The other thing that happens is you lose your support system at left defensive end behind de Marcus Lawrence because where you would have probably Armstrong over there, you may need him on the right side to help out with Quinn, and then Carrie Hyder

might have to go inside or Joe Jackson might have to go inside to help that defensive tackle. You've got Hill, but he hadn't played yet, so how much does he help you? But I think the good thing from I think what we deduce from yesterday talking to the assistant coaches and Jason Garrett, is that they feel like MALIEK. Collins can play the three technique and the nose, and Hill can do a little of both also, so that

gives you some versatility there. And then you got Hyder and Jackson who could go inside right and I would think Tristan Hill would would be active and will and he would that was inside rushes that Tyrone Crawford gives you that that's where Tristan Hill would fit in I's gonna say he's gonna have to chew up some snaps for him. If there he had antoine and tyrone, he's gonna have to play something no, no, And that's the

whole idea. And again talking to folks that he's had a good couple of weeks of practice this last week after the first week where he was inactive, it's like, oh wait, I'm don't get the address said this. You know, no, this is not Central Florida. You're not playing Temple this week. You know you wasn't. Yeah, he wasn't really aware of that rule. So now he's in a situation where it's like, Okay, I don't like standing over in the sidelines next to Mickey.

I want to be out there playing. So so that's where I think that to me, uh, this is where you're going to see a difference with him. They've had the Dolphins have had some problems inside by the way, handling some twist stunts and things. Keep an eye on that. Dan Kilgoord, their center just hasn't very good at doing that. So if we see some games inside, maybe you can get Tristan Hill some confidence and some good stuff going that way and they're starting a left guard as a

rookie out of Wisconsin. Yeah, Deeter, Yeah, And so I mean you couldn't hand pick a better place a team for Tristan Hill to make his NFL debut. Might score get him ready. This is as close to Temple as you'll get in the absolutely right. Yeah, there you go. Um. And then on offense, of course, we've known that Gallup would be out and Devin Smith, who had a very nice game a week ago. We'll get many more opportunities this time around. Yeah. Again, I this this whole thing.

I tried to ask coach Garrett the question about just stressing four and he smartly said, hey, we'll figure it out at the end. But I have a feeling they're gonna go for I don't think they're gonna bring anybody up. I don't think they want to put anybody down for it or while I'm with you, yeah, I think for it wide receiver because they're I don't think they're going

to make a move to bring up another receiver. I think that they're going to figure out a way to play twelve personnel stuff, use Jarwin us Witten and just attack the Dolphins. That Pollard exactly. Do you think that's because they've got versatility with their tight ends and they think that, yeah Pollard and those guys, or does it also speak to maybe, Okay, get through this game and maybe you get Tavon back and maybe gallops a little closer next. Yeah, I know, there's no question. I think

that's what they're do. I think that they look at the they're evaluating the Dolphin film and when we get to pick the click, I'm going to blow you guys away with my pick to click. All right, So but that, yeah, I feel like that they're gonna they're going they look at this situation and say, Okay, we could get away if we have to play with eleven personnel, we could use that. We could use Cooper Smith and then and

then uh Cobb and get away with that. And then if we have to have to say, okay, we want to put another receiver on the field, like Bill's talking about, you could put Pollard on the field. You could put Jarwin on the field as a detached player, right, so you could put some pressure on them that way as or you can go empty. Yeah, empty is another way of going. Yeah, So there's ways to manage it. I think without having to cut somebody to bring in a

wide receiver who's just kind of in. They just can't have somebody get nicked up at that respect. That's the big thing. But play double advocate. I mean they didn't do that last week. They made a move to get Cedric Wilson up for this, but they needed him also for special team stuff to have somebody return punts too, so Cobb didn't have to do everything. Cobb had that rib injury that that yeah, maybe they were thinking about that a little bit, and then they're still going light.

I'm just saying you're still going light at receiver, there's no question, but there's ways to manage it because of their massatility with the tight end and the running back and the other thing. If they just go a bunch of two wide receiver, Cob can play on the outside.

It doesn't have to be Devin Smith for sixty snaps or whatever, because they did that in training camp when they went two wide at times, Cobb was the second wide receiver, So they can also go that route, which would mean if he's taken that many snaps, maybe he doesn't return punts and Cedric Wilson's the guy to go and catch punts, which which is always a concern, right because one drop punt can turn a game around. Mickey has not forgotten to run game to wanted to bring

up that Rams game. And you don't give Ryan Switzer Christmas card. No, I don't two years ago, but still no. It's if you talk, you know, talk to the special teams people and they'll tell you the one thing that can ruin a game faster than anything is not catching a punt. There's no getting one blocked. Those two things turn a game. He just makes it sound like they missed the playoffs in twenty seventeen because of one guy one play. Well, well, what if they had won that game?

All right? Right, all right, all right, I a little in a house thing with my head set here. I believe Kayden might have tried to say something to me which I could not hear very well, and I gave because it was working. Said that again, Kayden, there was the fumble and put the punt. Oh, I thought you were giving me some directions watching Tulane in Houston. I know about anybody else. Yeah, that's when I was watching.

What did he say? A better game? Probably? He said, you're doing a really poor job early in the show to Steff about as well as Jacksonville's offensive line run, they were no worse than Tennessee's offensive line and protecting the quarterback. Do you realize they won that game rushing for eighty eight yards on twenty carries and one of the carries was sixty nine yards. Yes, I do realize that. So that was nineteen carries for nineteen yards to Linda Houston.

But you're missing the point, man. They got the stash. Well, I'm gonna help. I'm gonna grow mine back. Please, please, dear Lord, do that for us. Please. And when you sacked the quarterback nine times, you can do that, and everybody's got down on Mariota and it's like, oh my god, having chance probably should be. I wonder what Mariota would do behind this offensive line. You know what, though, there was a time when he was something about those Oregon quarterbacks.

You know what I'm saying that that guy that I worked, Yeah, I wear Joey, Are I wear that one? It's something about them Moregan quarterback other than Dan Fouts. I think that, you know, there's something something going on there. While guarantee of Mike Leach has thrown a party today because no one would listen to him about minshew. Oh, he's good players player, And he said they would I heard an interview with him. He said the scouts would come in and they'd ask about him, and they, oh, but he's

only this tall. Yeah, well, the guy has thrown for more yards in the National Football League. Is the same height, you know, and on and on and no, he doesn't have an arm, and he's been all over the place he goes. Okay, don't take him. I think I think times have changed. We drafted a five eight quarterback. First. Overall, I think times have changed. Baker scouts quarterbacks. We've gone back to where we were in nineteen sixty exactly exactly now. I don't know this, but how how how tall's too?

He is? He's he's over, he's like six two. Yeah, he's he's a good size scout. He doesn't look big out there, all right. So the other bit of news that has happened since we last convened, Taco Charlton has found a new hall. He was claimed on waivers by the Miami Dolphins. He was he was claimed and he was that was the only team that claimed him. So, uh, Yeah, that would be a you know, that's for a team that is looking for you know, they're kind of void

of some pass rushers. We've talked about Charles Harris being their best passioners. They play a three four and odd man's front, So how does Charlton fit into that? Probably gonna play him an outside linebacker and an outside linebacker that rush, not a not a like on the line of scrimmage, outside like Charles Harris, y like. Charles Harris was their first round pick about six picks before Taco in the same draft, and not happy with him. He's

he's he's their best rusher. I will say that about him, and again, Lyle Collins has played a lot better or well he's he's played better, but I mean he's looks technique more sound than he has been in any time. And they'll move him on the other side, so they'll try and keep him away from Tyrant Smith, I want to say. But they'll, they'll they gonna have to do something. Last week against the against New England, they played clog and cover. Is what they did is you know, with

a rush three drop eight. I don't think you can get away with that playing against press Scott run right over him. Yeah, I think that. To me, it's gonna come down to they're gonna have to find a way to get pressure, and they're probably the similar to what the Giants, but they've got they've got a legitimate secondary that Xavier Howard is is a really good player. He's one of the better corners in this league. Of course, they don't have Fitzpatrick who they had against New England. Yeah, exactly,

and keep an eye on him. By the way, Fitzpatrick was the personal protector on the punt team. This team has gotten almost got a couple of punts block. Don't be surprised. Yeah, Keith O'Quinn goes. They've had problems with the snap. Don't be surprised if Keith O'Quinn goes after a punt or two in this game because of some of the problems they've had. New personal protector, high snap,

left footed punter. Keep an eye on that. And Tacco if all he has to do is rush the quarterback, even if he has today's practice, isn't easy, you think. If you think Taco will be on Sunday, I think so. I wouldn't I wouldn't guarantee that well I just got here. Yes, today, basically he's had practice today wearing number ninety six. Reports that on Miami and Gate. If they just want him to rush the pis rush, you have a role for him, right, they have us. They are very I mean, they just

don't have much depth eat. They really don't run. They really don't, you know in Harris is if he's their best pass rusher. He's got three sacks in twenty nine games. Yeah, but that's he's had more than that in one game at Missouri. Yeah, so fans, we got fans reaction to this, well, why why couldn't they've gotten a pick for him? Then? You know, to Miami, if you want to look at it now, you can look at the Quinn trade and

take your six pack you gave it for Quinn. Basically said you gave up a six and Taco Charlton for Robert Quinn. Yeah, so that trade what just wasn't made back in April, So for both sides. Yeah. But the great thing from a Cowboys perspective, and they probably are doing cartwheels here, that there was a team that claimed him the money. Yeah, well, and what was the question, why couldn't they get a pick for him from from

Miami because Miami didn't want to give it to him. Yeah, I know that's the answer, but fans are asking, well, maybe a late round, and at this point they would have taken anything. That's what we've been talking about doing this week is teams monitoring the situation say, look, he's probably there's a good chance he's gonna get let go.

You're doing you're doing your job too well. You're letting teams know that read our stuff that like, oh, he's probably gonna get released, and this is what's going to happen. And you know, I think that you know, teams monitor what would do. In a matter of fact, I had a couple of teams call me the other day and said, hey, I read what you said this about him? Is that? Is there anything more about this? You know that kind

of thing. So yeah, it's the way that you know, the way you cover this team is you could you know, people have a pretty good idea that yeah, he had a pretty good preseason. They could watch the tape and see that. But they also I know there were a couple of teams that were interested in but they were One of the teams was cap strapped and they couldn't, you know, they couldn't take take his contract on and

that's that's a hard thing to do. But there were teams that were interested in him, it's just they didn't they were they were hopefully that he would get by the way. That's why Miami claimed him because it was so it was one point six million. Yeah. But but even with that salary and inheriting that contract, is Miami knew that he feeds out there as a free agent. He's not signing with Miami. The only way that they were going to take a player was if so that's

the reason Miami does that. And there's reports that the cow Taco had wanted to trade for a while back, and so maybe nothing had materialized. He was on the bubble. He was on the bubble beyond the reporting and all that, inactive for two games and then the social media stuff. I think any chance of trying let's go back and listen to Jerry Jones day about that social media and there's some tweets out there, uh talking about that and other teams that were mentioning that that we're concerned about

his social media post and so forth. What has posted on one oh five three, the fan right now. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Friday on the Fan they released Taco Charlton after he quote Wilton and had trouble recovering from bad practices. So that's what's well. Goes back to the toughness we talked about. Good thing. Antonio Brown is in here. If social media means anything, good point all right, I think we probably need to take a break and we're going to come back and we're going to dive

further into the Dolphins. And I cannot wait to hear who Brian brought us has is his pick to click here on Talking Cowboys. Your new apartment's big, such a great deal, that's okay, just okay.

It's now been posted what Jerry said on the fan this morning about Taco and briefly, let me just run

through a little bit of it. He says, when you're on the defensive line, it asked of more from you than other positions in terms of being motivated, in terms of fighting through just the nature of the activity in the defensive lines. Is just fighting through You're fighting through pain, You're fighting through really serious obstacles. With all those big offensive lineman you've got to absolutely be eating raw meat

to be a defensive lineman. In my mind, For whatever the reason, that area of taco and it had as much to do with his own disappointment, his own feeling that he can do better. I've seen him do a rep in practice and when he didn't get there, he just wilted. It just looked like it impacted everything that he was going to do for the rest of the practice. You can say, well, I can correct that if you're a coach, But on the other hand, you've got to get it done. So there you go the full context

of the clore. If you're going to be a defensive end, you can't be a vegetarian. There you go, There you go. All right. As far as the Dolphins are concerned, how about we around the horn as we explore these dolphins. I've got some thoughts on what I think some areas might be where the Dolphins can hope to have a little bit of success and where they I think will have extreme failure in this game. Sure, but how about it a pick to click who wants to go first

on a pick to click. I'll go. I'll go first. You know, I'm I'm gonna dance with these these tight ends. I'm gonna dance with Alake, with Blake Jarwin. I think that Blake Charwin is going to have a big game

against these guys. They haven't stopped a tight end from catching a football thirteen targets, thirteen receptions, and so all of a sudden, if you're a team that's that's not able to stop athletic times, and the Ravens have good tight ends, and yeah, and then also the Patriots, you know they don't have Grenkowski, but here still they're throwing. You know, they're got in a lot of twenty one personnel. The Patriots took advantage of that. These tight ends had

big games. I have a feeling that Blake Jarwin is going to come out of this game with with uh, you know, maybe six receptions, a giant's performance, maybe a gian or maybe not the three touchdowns. But I have a feeling that these tight ends are going to play well.

But I'll pick him to be my pick to click because I feel like that they just don't they have trouble, you know, this, uh this Jones, the safety they have has been banged up a little bit, hasn't practice, you know, so shar Jones, I mean that's those are the things, if you you know. And no Mika Fitzpatrick who was kind of having to cover some guys. So yeah, they're

having problems with with these tight ends. So I'll just be a little unorthodox today and go with Blake Jarwin here is having a big game for the Dallas Cowboys. I think that's a wise choice. And especially where the Cowboys are at the wide receiver position. Shure, they'll probably make some players on the outside there too, But just keep an eye on these tight ends making plays. I let you go last time. I'll let you go now. I stole your last time. Take my guy. That was

two weeks ago. Okay, I got the guy last time, and I'm riding them again this week. Okay, Oh, you're going with Ezekiel Elliott this team. And I know when you get beat as bad as they do, teams tend to run a lot on you because they don't need to do anything else. They've given up three hundred and ninety one yards rushing in two games. That's almost like two hundred a game, so I understand what happens at

end of games. But they're also the opponent's running game is averaging four point eight yards a carry a carry, that's almost five yards a carry right half of first down. Zekiel al is going to have a field day behind this offensive line. And aren't the Cowboys glad to have this offensive line? Because when you watch that game last night, it's like, oh my, does anybody got offensive lineman in

this league? Good drafting, and we don't get a chance to watch enough other games, and so when you get to sit back and watch an entire game of what these other teams are doing, geez well, And it's to the point of people wondering, Okay, how come you're keeping Brandon Night when you when you're looking for people to get to your practice squad and trying to make a

roster move, and the Cowboys keeping these offensive lineman. Well, you can understand when you look around the league again, and we saw it right twenty eleven, twelve, maybe even thirteen, what they were throwing out there. Yeah, and it's like, gosh, the transformations unbelievable. I'll stick with the offensive theme, and I know they don't have Michael Gallop in this game, but I'm going with Randall Cobb because Brian mentioned the

matchup with Howard against Amarty Cooper. That's a good one. Yeah, I mean, Howard is a Pro Bowl player, but I think Cobb. One of the reasons I feel comfortable about the Cowboys winning this game is what Mickey just said. The offensive line is as good as we've seen it the last couple of years, and Dak spoke about it yesterday. Not only is he trying to get the ball out quicker, they're doing a good job up front. He blamed himself for the one sack, but the receivers are getting separation

down to down. And I think Cobb has been everything is advertised as a steady guy, and I think he's going to take advantage of some opportunities in the passing game because I think that's gonna have time to throw in this guy. Yeah, this is the way that the way that they're gonna Last week, we had the discussion would they walk Norman and we're kind of thinking maybe, maybe not, But that's not the mo of what's going on there in Washington. The mo here is they'll walk guys.

This guy Xavian Howard, he'll walk. So it's kind of like watching a college defense a little bit with you know, you've been watching tape and all of a sudden, guys are playing boundary corners and guys are playing field corners and stuff. So you see him go and sometimes you see him even playing the slot. So it's a New England Patriot Way where Brian Flores he's from, to try and take away your best player and then let everybody else see if they're good enough to beat. So I

like what Rob saying there. If in fact they try and take away Cooper, then it's gonna have to be Cobb and Witten, another guy, Smith and other guys win in to to to win this football gallup. They're gonna miss Gallop for however long he's out. Yeah, but they've got enough weapons I think to withstand some of this. I mean maybe this week. Yeah. Well okay, no, that

that's you're worried about it, Okay, Saints. I mean I think teams would still like to have rental Cobb as your second option in the no, no, no, I'm not a particular eye. Yeah, and the tight ends and all that. I mean, I think they can get through this for two weeks or whatever it's going to be. This could

be a low scoring game too. If if what Mickey's saying is true, that they turn around and hand the ball to Ezeki Elliott thirty times, you know what I'm saying, If they if they can, if they you know, if they get maybe this turns into a game where Dak Prescott's final numbers are eighteen of twenty four four, you know, and then the rest of it comes with through the rush, you know, with with Pollard and and and and Elliott,

those guys. Yeah. We talked earlier in the week about the fact that the game last week against the Patriots of the Dolphins, with three minutes to go in the third quarter, it was thirteen to nothing. Actually, they scored with one something left in the half, and that was about to say I would rewatch the first half again this morning, and with the minute twenty to go in the first half, it was still a seven nothing game. And then they scored, right, yeah, exactly, Antonio Brown made

it thirteen nothing. So who's your guy? Um, I'm looking at this Dolphins offensive line. Look at Bill's got his chart. Yeah, I've got my chart and everything I said, I'm doing a game. No I'm not, but I decided I'm gonna I'm gonna prepare for this as if I'm doing the game. And here's the reason. All right, I'm looking at this Dolphins team and I'm going, Okay, what do we really know about this team at all? Okay? The only way that you can really learn about a team is to

dive into it. I'm really digging and figure out who are they actually playing because we all know that they traded they traded away Laramie Tunsil. Yeah, and you know it'd be like, Okay, where are the Cowboys if they traded Tyrann Smith on the off inns of line? Okay, okay, So they've got okay, at left tackle, they've got Jesse Davis, who has been a guard I believe in his career. Yeah, and he's now out at left tackle. He did start sixteen games last year at right guard, but now he's

playing left tackle. Okay, Um, well did in the New England game, JaMarcus Webb started at the left tackle. He actually started at right tackle. Okay, Okay, yeah, okay, because Isaiah Price Prince, that's right, Yeah, Okay, yeah, he was the right tackle right. Jesse Davis is at left tackle. JaMarcus Webb was at right tackle. And that's why I brought up Jesse Davis first, because I thought that they had Webb at left. He was actually a right I was looking at my notes and that right, yeah, okay,

art right tackle one, that's right. JaMarcus Webb out of North Mosquite High School, West Texas A and M. Remember when he first came into the league. He was with the Chicago Bears, and he actually was a starter's first three years in the league. He's got sixty six starts in his career. Last year he was at Indianapolis. He got into one game, one start. In twenty seventeen. He did not play. In twenty sixteen, he was in Seattle

and had three starts. The last time that he was a full time starter in this league was four years ago in Oakland. Okay, yeah, DeMarcus Lawrence has got to be just licking his chops. If if sixty one JaMarcus Webb is starting at right tackle for the Dolphins, DeMarcus Lawrence is going to have a huge day. He is my pick to click. We gave him like the best player. We just went around the league. I mean, we just went around the whole thing and we just toy discounted,

took Mickey asking Bill, who's your pig. I'll take de Marcus Lawrence. But that's the reason it's it's DeMarcus against Jay Marcus and uh, no offense to JaMarcus Webb and his family. It might be longtime cowboy fans. I'll tell you what. They got to help him so much and is not going to be able to get rid of the ball quick enough. I will say that that's one thing Ryan Fitzpatrick will do. But this is a This is when you're saying this, Bill, It's interesting because we

said it yesterday. What's the one thing if you had to nitpick about this team, it would be the pass rush or lack of So do they get it right this week? Does all of a sudden we start to see DeMarcus Lawrence. Do we get to see uh you know, Robert Quinn, do we get to see more pass rush? I like your pick on another front, And that's because we talked to DeMarcus I think it was last week, and he said, I'm still trying to get to my standard of play. I'm starting to get my pad level right,

my counters all that stuff. I think his condition, he's getting better with more practice, but this might be the week three games in he puts it all together. On top of what his matchup is, they might not have to play defense. If you have to pay going to keep running, Yeah, you're just gonna hog the ball, That's what I'm saying. That's why it might be actually a low scoring game if you if you think about low scoring games, I mean again, Dallas will probably score somewhere

between twenty four and twenty eight points. And you know, the Miami wants to make it as low scoring a game as possibly want to make. They want to make it as ugly as possible. And that's why I felt like if Fitzpatrick played in this game, that that that was the I think the Dolphins just took their best chance away from having a very competitive game. Yeah with Fitzpatrick, because he if they threw the ball fifty times, each guy will be intercepted. Why they could very well be,

but he doesn't care. Why do you think they make the switch on a Thursday like that? Though? Well, I'll just what they threw out there. They had this in their mind, right, but they said each guy got equal stabs and and Rosen played the best during the two practices. I decide, I think I think the get rid of this so far as it was on a two. Yeah, yeah, I see guys announced on Tuesday that Fitzpatrick was starting, and I think there were some conversations behind the scenes.

Oh there's no question, there's no question. Look, the guy who's pressure applied that no Rosan started. He had completed fifty percent of his passes, one touchdown, four interceptions. He was only averaging five point four yards an attempt with a thirty nine point nine quarterback rating thirty nine point nine, but then the other guy had a fourteen point two. I just the thing is, I just go back and

they're never going to get the ball. I just go back and think about Fitzpatrick and being undermanned and you never know when he's gonna light it up. That's that's what I was And if if the pass rush is not there and a quarterback can kind of feel comfortable throwing the ball, yeah, they don't have a lot of weapons. That that was my worry in this game. That that was my Now, you Brian Flores has eliminated the one worry I've had in this game. I got one question

for Caden game. Uh do we have need to take? Are we contractually obligated to take a breaker? Can we just wig it here? From pure on out? We have to do Jack Black, talk about Jack, talk about Jack, Jack Black, and can Mickey just talk about Jack the biggest size biggie size thing? All right? Are you ready

to do Jack three ouncers this week? And if you go to get Jack black dot com And it's a limited opportunity here and limited quantity, so go to get Jack, get Jack black dot com and get your biggie size product this week? Only very good? How's that? All right? It's great to look at um any other threats that the Dolphins have that the Cowboys need to be concerned about. I've got one you throw out one. DeVante Parker, the wide receiver. This is a guy that can go get

fifty fifty balls. If if they in fact Rosen can even throw the ball down the field, He's I think the game plan changes for them. For underneath, Rosen tries to be perfect. He tries to be perfect passing the ball, whereas Fitzpatrick will just wing it. And that's where I felt like that, you know, maybe that Parker down the field,

those fifty fifty balls middle of the field. I mean, you could break down plays where you see the ball going down and him going up and getting and he's clearly taller than a lot of guys that he plays against. I mean, that's one of the things that I would definitely worry about if I'm the Dallas Cowboys. Is that ball going down the field to him? And Oh, are we going to get pass interference calls? Are we gonna get challenges of pass interference calls? I mean all kinds

of things. So he is he is the best threat that they have on the outside. And then they also have the rookie who's undrafted, Preston Williams, right out of Colorado State. He's and he talked about it now Parker sixty three. Preston Williams is six five, right, and he replaced Michael Gallup at Colorado State. Just as productive at Colorado State. And I believe he was that last week you scored a touchdown or the week Greg last week, last week he gets New England. No, no, no, they didn't,

they didn't score. They didn't. That's right. Against Baltimore, he has their one touchdown on the year exactly. And you know what Rosen Now in his last seven games, so two with Miami, five with the Cardinals when he was the starter, he's got one touchdown in five picks. Yeah, yeah, it's That's what I'm saying. You just took away my threat is what hey, people on BHIL, did you want to give your name? Han Elbert by the way, you Preston Williams was the other guy. And and the other

thing about them. People talk about the tight end Mike gisicky. Yeah, okay, and it's actually he has not been productive at all his career so far. And in fact, they came out in two tights last week and it was the other two tight ends, uh Durham Smite out of Notre Dame and Nicolo right and there other wide receiver Albert Wilson's not practiced all week, right now. Guy, the other guy, I would mention his Jachem Grant. Yeah, he's the jet sweeper right and on special teams he can bring it

out of it. He's got two punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown in his career. Of course, he's out of Texas Tech and Mesquite Horn Go ahead, last. The last thing we go at is just periscope point. Is there a do you feel like there's a really a huge drop off between Woods and Thompson at safety for this team? Well, I think there's a drop off for sure. I don't know about huge. Yeah. Look, if you get beat and you're gonna blame it on the

free safety, then you've got other problems. Yep, that's my take on safeties. I'm sorry. Yeah, Rob Phillips, go on, Robin, you were about to say something. Well, to Bryan's point, they Dolphins just have to manufacture some chunk plays. We don't. I don't know if they have a running game because they've only had is this right, they've only got twenty seven rush attempts. Yeah, they've they're I mean, so they've been playing behind so much. You don't really know. So

can they stop Parker? Can Rosen pull a rabbit out? We'll see that's their best shot early in the game. Guess the Patriots last week it did not appear that they had a running game. But I wouldn't blame the running backs for it. You don't have much upfront. And when you saw last night, Yeah, and you know what, and look the idea is to win this game, right, you don't need to score fifty points. So if the Cowboys come in with win twenty four to three, year,

that's exactly my score. It's it's it's like just like the Super Bowl. These teams are coming coming up. They o they're catching onto this a Wayne Thomas will be the star of the game. The idea is the twenty four to three Cowboys win. There you go, all right? That does it for Talking Cowboys thirty four nine. That sounds okay, very good.
