It is a Saying with your Chest Friday here on Talking Cowboys, presented by a Black Rifle Coffee Company here from the Star in Frisco. As we break down the

Plenty to talk about here on this Friday with Patrick No, c Walker, with Isaiah stand back, Cris Beam in the back. Um, Kyle Yeoman's glad you're with us, gentlemen. We're spitting hot fire, spitting high. Dialon. Do you know who the five best rappers alive? Our Kyle?

Who who do you think? Dialon? Okay? Dialon, dialon, dialon, dialon and dialine. I think you forgot about dialon. You know why? Because because he spits fire, making the band reference for those Oh slash David Chappelle. I've so I've watched that, but I don't think i've watched it in maybe six years. Oh yeah, it's been a long time. I gotta go run one of the greatest shows every It can never be on TV nowadays though, Yeah, they were too sensitive. People are two cents. Just the medians

have it hard nowadays. Is it streaming anywhere? Like? Is it one of those? And I have it on DVD. Personally, I'm pretty sure that you can find it on YouTube somewhere. Right after, right after you watch Talking Cowboys on YouTube, you probably just go straight to Dave Chappelle. Yeah, so I'll click the up button the thumbs up ass everybody should I'm Talking Cowboy. It's on YouTube, and then turn around and I would watch Dave Chappelle. That Dave Chappelle.

You know. Yeah, there's there's number of show. Watch all the Cowboys shows. Actually watch all of them. And once you finish that, play and subscribe and subscribe and subscribe and turn your notification bill on our guy Heck recruited me to be on the Players Lounge today. So if you're not busy, pop Pop on it's me. It was him and Barry only, and he was like, you want to hop over? We were doing our high school game last night. That shows late for me is a little

a late for me. You're already in the building, your full time employee. Yeah, I can just pop down. It's not not if you guys have offices, it's late for you. That's supper time. That's exactly what that is for me, trying you know, it was at it at five am this morning on the Prairie supper time. Hey man, you know what, I'm a little self, little plug. You guys.

If you guys don't watch Film Room, you guys might want to check it out because because Kyle to myself, what do you mean you're talking to I'm just talking to the people out there. Have their ears to the to the radio right now. If you have not watched Film Room, go watch film Room. We dropped it with every Thursday. Drop it. Yeah, winds there Thursday. Okay, So we dropped that. I think yeah, it would be yeah, Thursday, Thursday,

Thursday or Friday. So I don't know if it's up yet, but if it is, if it is up, go watch it. We try to tell you every week, what to look out for. We try to educate you just a little bit more, right, so that you when you watch the game, you're just the smartest person in the room. Yes, cerebral, you know, so that you can sit up there with your friends and be like, oh, look for this, and they're gonna be like, oh my goodness, how do you even see that? And you're gonna be like yeah, and

you're gonna be like, yeah. It's funny because there are people that have that have reached out to me and they say one of their favorite segments that we do all week long is film Room. If if we could put it in this show, I would, but it just doesn't work well for people that are for listening. Yeah, so, but it is. It's a ton of knowledge, and Isaiah really breaks it down well, he really, he dives into it and he's getting better and better at using the

little machine to tellustrators right along the way. But uh, check that out film Room. Lots of fun this week and always on Dallas Cowboys dot com. Patrick, We've got some news and notes cowboys back out there. We got to run into the locker room a little bit yesterday. What's it looking like today? Okay, So first and foremost, uh, you know, most that are on the injury report for the Cowboys are in fact full obviously headlined by Dak Prescott.

Full again. We said on yesterday we were trying to see if the full designation would transfer over from the walk through game on Wednesday to the actual full workload on Thursday. It in fact did. Uh. Dak Prescott after practice, when he was asked if he started against the Lions, he said, I am, and then he paused, smiled, remembered the gamesmanship, remembered he's not the head coach, and he deferred to McCarthy on that by saying I think I am,

which was kind of a wink wink coming. So looks like all signs continue to be pointed towards Dak Press the drip, the drill fire. He was hydroplaning on the drip. I mean the Jordan Ones, the Chicago Bulls, Jordan Ones to match the rich the red Jersey. Ah, don't touch me. He yeah, I can't touch this. Um. So everyone was full, with the exception of Matt would let's go the young offensive swing tackle he u or yeah. He suffered a sublization and training camp the Cowboys were trying to avoid surgery,

but it was always on the table. It's reoccurred here on yesterday. Surgery is now likely to take place. So there's a very good chance that the Cowboys will not see Matt Let's go on the field until twenty twenty three. Ah, that's the only Isaiah's looking at me, because he's been saying this since we were at training camp, that that you might as well red shirt the guy and then let him play next year, get him healthy, get him right. But I think they're there now. I played two straight

years for the Dallas Cowboys with a sublex shoulder. Yeah, I can't. I got drafted through it, I filed through it. I played, I mean I played then on all the games that I it was popping out. The hurts, It freaking hurts, and at his position, it's just not doable. Yeah. So it sounds like that valiant effort, though effort shows

it's gonna happen now. So Dak Prescott being one headliner and the other being Ceedee Lamb, which there was no major concern that as far as his hip suffered the hip injury on last Thursday, it did not practice last Friday, was a you know, full goal on Sunday against the Eagles limited on Wednesday, but he jumped up to full participant on Thursday, which is very very important. So ceedee lamb is a goal as well. For those that are wondering about Michael Parsons and that growing, Michael said he

is quote unquote super healthy. For those that have of us that saw the open portion of practice yesterday, I can attest because every practice before team drills, bones, Fossil has everyone line up and they do a sprint to see who will win. And Michael was involved in the sprint and came in second. Unless I will not disclose who came in first, leave to suspense. Let's leave it to you to say it was just Friday. Don't you hold back? It's like freaking hold back Jack the Black Rider.

It's like the Willie Wonka gift where he's like, oh, this is killing me more, please, you gotta take it. You gotta use it in a point later in the show. Yeah, maybe, Okay, So my question at this point is that's fine. I'll take that. We've seen Mica banged up a few times now, right, We've seen Mica banged up a few times so either he's either one of two things. Either he's not as injured as he appears when he's playing in the game, or he just has like the secret serum to get

healthy super fast. It's one of the two. He's got MICA's secret sauce. So either when he gets banged up in the game, he looks like he's hurting a little bit. Either we just don't take it that serious because it's like, ah, we've seen it a few times now, or he just has some magic serum that he just puts in his

body and heals up. He had they has Sin Sue beans. Yeah, for those that know he has, he has Sin sup because he ate a couple of Sin Sue beans over this weekend hopped in the hyperbolic time chamber, right, he went full half of those. Yeah, he went full kecarrot um and he's good to go. I mean, he's really out there, really full blown sprints. That tells me that

he's he's completely fine. The amount of moviefferences culture references around this opening segment is unbelievable, Right, It's been great though, So you talk about it's hard to outline this question because I I don't think it's been over dramatized by by Michael Parsons his injury. I don't think he's out there saying, oh my gosh, I'm hurt. He's not that guy. He's competitive. He's uber competitive if anything. Yeah, he's saying, he's trying to say he's not hurt at that point.

But it how much does that affect him or how how much has that affect him affected him through these last couple games in your eyes when you're watching them film, And that's what I'm saying. I don't know how much weight to put on it now, you know, in terms because he is super healthy. Yeah, because he's super healthy and he's sprinting now, And anybody who's had a growing injury which appeared that he had, you're not sprinting like that days later. I don't care, you know, unless you

have the magic serum. So again, so it leads me to either think, Okay, when I see him get banged up in the game, he's not as banged up as he probably appears. I mean, maybe he's you know, maybe he's like being a little bit dramatic with it, or

he has the magic serum. I think it's it's more the case where and you know, you know, as a former athlete, not all growing injuries or equal, so it could have just been that it tightened up on him really, really badly a couple of weeks ago, hence you know, the limping and trying to loosen up on the bike before he eventually got back into the game. And in that case, in the days to follow, in practice, they almost followed my recipe of DNP DNPP, right, they almost

followed it. So for the most part, there's been a lot of a lot of rest as far as practices go between those two games, and now he seems to be right where he needs to be. So maybe it wasn't anything major, but in the moment it tightened up, needed a little bit, you know, some of rest and goes from there. But again, it's definitely tiger milk. He's

drinking the tiger milk. It is there. It is. It's one thing for a competitor like Michael Parsons to say he's super healthy, but to have the the evidence of seeing him running those full sprints in a friendly competition, Mica is just fine. If you had to run a full sprint against Kyle humans, would you win? Oh? Not even close. Yeah, absolutely, when he get laughed, Oh, on a forty you would lap. Let's let's not laugh. How to make it to the forty, come back and then

run it again? You would like before the lights went off? Why I turn around and go dion, are you hearing this? Beamer? That's you're hearing this? Wow? No, se ky, this is forty picture versus he's quicker than picture versus an outfielder. I am a picture. Is it even close? No? Seriously, picture versus would you even put it like in the same shot? Okay, I'm exaggerate. I'm sure he has some speed on. But how many steps would you beat him by? Do you have shoes on? Race outside you want to

and the breaks? How many steal what are you talking about? One step? Were talking about like five steps? How many steps are a car lamp? That's a lot in a forty? Yeah I would. I would probably give him a car lane. Yeah. I may be able to keep it decently close by that point, but now probably not. People people are in Twitter verse. I want you guys to put how how many stride limps with no c B K y by? Is it a K why stride length? Or is it

a no? C stride about different question, go back to the thanks the picture versus the outfield, right, Randy Johnson over here, Johnson, nomm how much would you put on that? How many stride Lands do you think no Cea wins by? Oh? God, um, I don't know. Two or three? Oh, that's thanks, Beam appreciate that's close. It's forties. Forties are quick. Forties are quick. Well, we're gonna have to test this out. We're gonna have

to get out there. We may put it on Twitter later, Patrick, I feel like there's some content we can make ready. So I speaking of speed and speaking of new challenges, I was asked this morning on a on a radio call, and I really liked the question. I was already planning on bringing it up, but he asked me, and I didn't really have a great answer for it. Where is the usage on offense for one Cavante Turpin and how

could they use him on offense? Because Simi Phojoko been put on IR they elevated Jalen Tolbert at least from an inactive borderline and active to a must have active, which is good for a third round pick, but still we probably need to have that conversation at some point. But where could Cavante Turpin play a role in this offense? Patrick, because you look at his speed and his explosiveness as

a returner. Can't they try and get the ball in space or give him the ball in space and allow him to work side to side and try and get north to south a little bit more so we can. We saw it, We saw kind of assemblance of it in training. Count he saw it in the scrimmage against the Los Angeles Chargers. He was able. He shown that he was able to take the top off of the opposing defense. I wonder if that's going to be a thing more now than it has been, and of course

it has not been because Dak Prescott is back. So you know, you saw If you go back and watch some of the film, if you watch film Room, then you'll notice there are times when Cavantay Turpin is not only on the field for the offense, but he's downfield given smoke to a defensive back. But Cooper just wasn't delivering that ball to him. If that happens with Dak Prescott in the center, that ball is on the way. So I think definitely they'll be able to you know,

initiate Covantay Turpin in that aspect as well. And I think it needs to happen because you talk about Jayalen Tolbert. Yes, he's active now, he's more of a special teams guy at the moment, early in his career. So we're not gonna, you know, be hyperbolic and start talking about all he's No, no, we're not doing that. But he does have some more development that needs to happen. Sending me for whole call. As you stated on IR, Cowboys have their top three,

who's the four, who's the five? I just wonder and this is me wondering out loud again, but I also wondered it out loud to Bones a few weeks ago before the season got under West said, Hey, in training camp, we saw what Kavante Turpin can be offensively. What's the

what's the risk management there? Like, you know, what's the conversation between you and Mike McCarthy and Kellen Morris far as getting him on offense, but understanding that if he were to get injured on offense, how devastating it would be the special teams because he is such as so I wonder if that's an aspect of the conversation as well. I don't know if I've ever heard of a special team's weapon being held out from offense. You hear it all the time on the other side, an offensive weapon

being held out on special teams. But now it's flip clop. But that's just a credit to what Turpin does. So you have to think about it from this from this position. If you have Turpin, I now, listen, I'm a Turpin fan obviously, but if you put Turpin in the game, you're either going a four receiver set or you're taking Noah Brown off the field. So that's what people need to understand when you're talking about incorporating Turpin into this offense.

You're literally going to take a very viable receiver off of the field, or you're going to four receiver set and you're not protecting your quarterback nearly as much. So you have to see what is more important. And then you have to say, Okay, how frequently can we get him involved in the offense, because we can't just put him out there whenever we want to get the ball to him, because now that's an alert alert. You know

the ball is going to Turpin. So you have to find a way to have him involved in the offense at least ten plays out the game, so that every time he's in there, you're not keying in on him. He has to be able to go out there and block. He has to be able to go out there and run a route. He has to be able to be able to be out there and be a threat in

the screen game. That's where I think he's best utilized right now is being there as a bubble screen, going to a three by one set, three receivers out to one side, him being the inside guy, and him being able to run a bubble off of a RPO type offense, which now you can run because now you have Dak back. So I think the opportunity is more prevalent now than it have been with Cooper Rush, but still majorit of time. You're gonna run a three receiver set with this Dallas

Cowboys offense. That's what they want to get to. They want to be. They want to be a twelve sorry eleven personnel team, one tight end, one running back, three or wide receivers. That's what they want to do. They've been doing a lot of twelve because they've been protecting Cooper Rush. And if you go to eleven, well, Noah Brown come over here and sitting on the sideline while we put Kavante Turpin in. As they said, don't take

his wide receiver one off the field exactly exactly. Do you think they go a little bit more eleven this week because of how one the matchup works out with Detroit, but two your offensive line's actually been playing better, and three your quarterback can move around a little bit. I think they go eleven personnel because I think against the Detroit Lions, it gives you better numbers in the box to run the ball. The Detroit Lions when you go

when you spread your receivers out, they widen with your receivers. Right, They're not. They they have to. They're not going to sit in the box and allow for you to get to edge in terms of leverage with your receivers. Okay, So they will widen their their defenders out towards your towards your trip side or your dual side, which then in short, creates a smaller box you know, five man box,

six man box for your office alignment. So now you're taking your five office alignment and you're tight end you're blocking up those five or six defenders in the box, which gives zeke Ra Poler an opportunity to run on air or have a one on one matchup with the safety,

which we hope that they can win. Fantastic point. And then kind of circling back to how to utilize Kavante Turpin, those that are asking to see more Turpin need to understand exactly what they're asking And it's not that it's a negative thing that you're seeking it, because hey, we're seeking it as well. We want to see it as well.

But you have to do it the right way. So one of the right ways is most certainly to use utilize him at times as a decoy so that when they start believing he's a decoy all of a sudden, that's the play where he's the weapon, right. But then you also have to understand he's not one of the top three, So you mentioned that specifically, Isaiah. So if you're talking about getting Turpin involved more often, then you're probably talking about more four and maybe even five, which

is a spread set. But if you're spreading, then you don't have a halfback, right, you don't have a running back, which means you're right. So now you can't really account for the extra protection that Dak Prescott might need, especially coming off of this injury. You need to be cautious with that. But again, cowboys, can they figure it out. I believe that they can. I believe that they eventually will.

Hopefully it starts as soon as Detroit. But I say all that to say there's a way to get Kavante Turpin involved, but careful that it doesn't start taking you away from what everybody should agree that needs to happen, which is you still need to lean on this running game. And if you start going more four and five, then you're kind of getting away from that and you're taking that protection away from day brisk You know what I'd like to see on third down? I'm a crazy man,

though you are a little crazy, but I'm crazy. I like it, okay. I would like to see our three receivers, okay, and I would like to see Tony Pollard and Turpin in the backfield and split back. That's hot chip challenge right there, because now even if they go dime personnel, you're still coming out the backfield and have favorable, favorable matchups with him having option routes out of the backfield.

You can run one guy in a swing route. You can run them both on the option routes right over there, right over the middle of your of your line, and now all of a sudden, you're given both of those guys options to get the ball underneath short, high precision passes and then they can get that yack yardist. Now it's just a nice little little change up that sounds like fun. On like third and six, third and seven. If it's third and one, give twenty one the ball

and run football go straight through the shoot. But if you're in like a third and medium ish ship, I can see that that'd be fun because because you don't worry about them protecting, and you can motion one of those guys out of if you want, you can bring them back in kind of do a little bit of a discover or if you discover, you create a four really you can create a five by one set if you really want it to a sorry sorry four by

one set. You can come out there and you have your one receiver to the left, you have two receivers to the right, and all of a sudden, you have these guys in the split back and then you motion one guy out to the same side as the other running back quote unquote running back, and now you have a four by one set. Usually you're gonna out leverage whatever team you're playing, the kids. And if they're in man and you you motion out like that, and then you see them chase their man pre snap and which

which puts him almost in quarters. Uh, I got CD back side, right, you got CD back side and or Dak's legs. If you're talking about a third and four thirds. There you go. Green's in front of you. Barney, Yeah, take off and I try it. What's the flintstone side? Yeah? Yeah, I liked it as soon as you did it. That's good. Uh okay, let's add that to the Talking Cowboys playbook, so whenever that pops up, we will take credit for it. This is give me a check killing mourners. Appreciate Kellen

On this say it with your chest Friday, Patrick Nose Walker with got Isaiah stand back. I'm Kyle Yeoman's Patrick. I just want to give you an opportunity. That's a Detroit Lions blue Cowboys hat. Now it's a sick hat, and it matches the shoes, by the way, which are also pretty awesome. I would never disrespect you like that, Kyle, Dude,

you were purple in studio so many times. You know why, because purple is a king's color. Kind of okay, in university it is diversity. But he did it. He didn't Viking when you play, I would totally did. I'm purple in my blood. I were purple in high school. I were purple in college, purple and gold. Matter of fact, you got the gold on right now. Come on, man, there you go. I just want to give you an opportunity find yourself there because somebody I defend myself. I

wanted to get that reaction. I don't have to defend Show him the lion on the ring, show him the ring, like come on now, yes, So that's first of all, uh huh. First of all, I don't have to I have to defend myself. Second of all, this is authentic Dallas Cowboys apparel. It is so the team, the organization created this merchandise. I am supporting the team, but for me, it's it's, you know, it's kind of a hybrid. It's

supporting the team. Man. It's reminding every one of you know the challenge ahead, which is, don't take this team for granted. And the team itself will not, but for fans and speaking the fans specifically, don't take this this

Detroit Lions team for granted. The offense, I like, you know what, I love what Ezekiel Elliott said yesterday when he was asked about the the you know, the ability of the Cowboys to run versus a very bad run defense in the Detroit Lions, and Ze basically said, he said, yeah, you know, the statistics are statistics, he said, but this is the NFL, and we could walk in their Sunday and that run defense could play out of their minds.

So he was like, so we have to approach them the same way we approached Tom Brady and the Buccaneers, the same way they approached the Cincinnati Bengals. And he's right, He's one percent right. So but for the fans, don't take the Lions for granted, just you know, believe that this team needs to go on there handle their business. But yeah, so you know it's not a coincidence, but it also doesn't require explanation. What understood doesn't happen. This

is now fifties snap back sack. So the locks, I was wondering. I was going, so the locks very impressive. That was fitted the sweet I just wanted I have it in the fitted version as well. Somebody somebody on Twitter was like, take that hat off, and I was like, it's actually a sweet hat and it's actually I don't know, I can't win. Yeah whatever. Um. By the way, somebody tweeted Mario from South Texas tweeted, and he tweeted a

picture of video. A video. Yeah, it was a gift of Aligneman trying to chase after a wide receiver and diving at the end zone. He said, that's gonna be me trying to dive after Patrick Walker on the forty. This might be a silly question. What does gift stand for? UM? I think it's just the file name at the end of what that's the format name. But I think it's stands with something has to would imagine a stance, I

would say that that's dance for me style. Now, you guys didn't want to be the one I didn't know. First of all, they see gift for Jeff, it's Jeff. I think I've ever said it's interchange format. Yeah, there you going, Beamer, I'll see you with the hot fire. I say gift though, I'm going I always definitely going gift. All right, let's talk about some matchups to watch this week. Isaiah, you've you've had some matchups circled between the Cowboys and the Lions. Who you got this week? I'm looking at

the tight end position, Kyle. All right, I think tight ends on both sides. Do we see a resurgence of Dalton Shotz. Do we see the Ferguson show, Do we see the hinder shot show? Do we see that their two rookies take over or does SHOLTI all of a sudden get that Oh I got that secret serum. They got that same serum that Michael Parkin's got that sense

who being in? Now? Because Dak's back and he shows back up and he's like, Tella, I'm the Dalton shows that you guys franchise tag Hello, So are you gonna see that Dalton shows because we haven't seen him this year. He's been Inknito all right? Or do we see Hocketsing go off and does he take on you know, jay Ron Curse. If jay Ron Curse has been him and his committee have done an amazing job against some really good tight ends this year, some really freaking good tight ends.

You got Odden out of out of University of Washington, but he plays in Tampa. Now who do we have over in Cincinnati? We had uh you knows Hurst and Hurt hayden Hurst. Okay, you've had Higbee. Hey. They've done a great job of shutting down tight ends. So these guys are they're legit in the secondary in terms of being to lock those guys up. But here comes a

young talent that could do it all. He could block, he could run block, he run block, he could pass block, and he could run routs and catch balls and maybe plays in the red zone. So I think both sides have challenges in that regard at that particular position. I'll tell you what I'm looking forward to, um and and if this can if the Cowboys player I'm about to mention can mention the can delete the Lions player I'm about to mention, then the Lions are really in dire straits.

I mean they already are, but this is going to basically be ball game. Tyler Smith versus Adan Hutchinson, rookie on rookie crew, rookie on rookie crime. Didn't even think about the rookie storyline with that. Wh I'm here for the science. I got you on the science. I want to pick what pick was he He's number two? Yeah? Yeah? Disrespectful? Yeah right? How dare then pick him ahead of him? Right? There we go? We got dirty. Twenty three teams passed

over Tyler Smith. He's taking a chip on his shoulder. Rookie and rookie crime two first round picks. Tyler Smith looks great. Eight. Hutchinson started off hot, He's kind of cooled down. This is a big game. He's gonna want to kind of ramp up for that obviously. Um I just I just want to see it. I need it, I need it, I crave it. I want to see Tyler Smith going against what's your projection with that? Tyler win? Just about that. Tyler wins. Tyler wins what percent of

the time? One hundred percent of the TN So Aiden doesn't get one. I don't think Hutcherson gets a sack against Dak Prescott. I don't think he does. And if he does, it won't be because Tyler. Maybe Tyler, you know, helmet tap needed a couple of water. I should ask how Josh Ball comes in and then after practicing and say, hey, are you looking forward to this matchup against the number two overall pick this year? Consider it? Though you gotta say it like that thought the number two? What number?

What number was he? There's there's no availability today other than the conference call, and so we don't know just yet if Tyler will be the call. But if I happen to see him grabbing some lunch. Yes, yeah, Tyler Brook on the should and ask Tyler Smith. With two hundred and ten pass blocking snaps, he's allowed three sacks and seven hurries thirteen total pressures this season as efficiency is ninety six percent, so he's been pretty good the

biggest six games. Yeah, that's that's pretty that's pretty good for a starting left tackle as a rookie. That's actually phenomenal. But I'm also looking at penalties. He's he's up there in the league in terms of five penalties this year, so that that definitely hurts. I'm also trying to look at out of the starting left tackles, he's one of the higher graded offensive rookies in the league. I think

he is. Let me see, he would be the fourth highest graded left tackle rookie behind Eca mcquannu, who is who was a top five pick, Braxton Jones who's just kind of come out of nowhere for Chicago, and then Jeremy Sawyer or Jamari Sawyer excuse me from Ohio State who's playing with the Chargers. He got thrusted into there late anyway. So out of your left tackles, those guys have been playing the best and Tyler Smith's right up there. He's been playing really well. I want to see it.

I needed. I don't think Hutcheson, I mean Hutchesson might get a pressure. I'm not saying he won't get a pressure, because that's probably Yeah, that's completely disrespectful. I think he would get a couple of pressures, but I don't think he will get hands on Dak Prescott, not if Tyler Smith is lined up against him. But I want to see it. I gotta have it. Two first round picks, Yeah,

let's go. You know the guy that's graded right above Tyler Smith at this point in the season, Tyler Linderbaum, the other guy I really wanted on the Draft show. I wanted Tyler Linderbaum so bad. But that's okay. I like Tyler Biottish too. My matchup, yeah, Tyler's Tyler Tyler three, Tyler's in Tyran no creative. The Cowboys Cowboy's upfront office as a type in their offensive lineman Tyler Frederick, Tyler

Boiler Smith, Tye Run Smith. Um, so my matchup I'm looking out for is Ezekiel Elliott versus this front seven. I think this is a game where they can continue to utilize Zeke. I got a chance to talk to him yesterday and I basically asked him, what, how have you continued to improve? How has the ground game gotten better as the season's gone along? And he said, sticking with it. He didn't say anything of, oh, yeah, we've been we've been in the weight room, we've been practicing hard.

He said, sticking with the run game. That's the key for this run game getting better as the season's gone along. And I kind of like that answer because when Dak Prescott comes back, it's been a storyline. Will the play calling change, will they go over the top more, will they throw the football far more than they really need to? Or is it going to stick to the same kind of recipe that they had done with Tyler's or excuse me,

with Cooper Russia quarterback. So my matchup is Ezekiel Elliott running right into the teeth of that Detroit Lions defense. I think he has one hundred yards this game too. I would agree with that. Do you still hear the murmurs? Right Halloween time you can hear things around whisper Do you still hear the murmurs and whispers of people saying that Zeke has lost a step. Zeke's not what hey, I don't hear them men. Yeah, it's crazy. He just continues to fall forward and get first downs. It's kind

of weird. He's not the same tailback that he once was that he wants was seven years ago. No, of course not. Yeah, but he still does his job exceptionally, exceptionally well he does. He does what he needs to do really well. Pass blocking, check, running, strong check, falling forward, check, running people over, absolute apps frequently, double check, if anything, discount double check. Now, I just can't say people expectations are just so miss But here's what makes it even better.

After the Cowboys. The Cowboys for the most part have obviously, I mean there's been some times with not so much, but there have been most of the majority of these first six games, they're they've been successful on the ground. And this is with going to get supposing defenses. That no disrespect to Cooper Rush, but they're simply not scheming for Cooper Rush's arm like they will have to scheme

for Dak Prescott's arm. And now with Dak Prescott back, you have to account for that, which means you can't really stack the box to stop this run game like you would like to, and that's going to further open up the lanes. And so yeah, I don't I'll say this with my chest. I don't only believe that Zach. I don only believe Zeke gets one hundred yard game. Get me, get me one thirty, Give me one thirty and one thirty and from Zeke by himself. Yeah, give

me one third, but Zeke Zee give me one thirty. Man, I'm gonna be so hype if that actually happened. Give me one thirty and a tutty handed tutty and a tutty after Tony and Tony's gonna get involved. I think Tony's gonna get Tony gets a tuddy, But I think Tony's is gonna be a receiving tuddy out of the backfield. Um,

so maybe you know he gets fifty on the ground. Um, it comes up one of the primary receivers by the end of the game, sixty five seventy and the total in the air for the whole offense, I mean, for the whole offense. You know what, you wan't forget it? Say with the chicks just four hundred yard offense, let's go. I like it club und you didn't know your day. You did not jump out of the cake, and you said three fifty you like I was thinking about. Can't

handle me jumping out the cake. Say we're going to break. That's it. When we come back, We've got predictions, we've got draft kings, we've got a lot of stuff. Give us a call eight five to two nine seven if you want to be a part of our pickum segment. We've got a plenty more to come here on talking cowboys when we come back. Right after this, Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the cheetah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought online was reliable.

And now Todd is trying to be faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour. But the good news is Todd has AT and T five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he learned the best thing to do is stop running and toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and T five G. Fast, reliable, secure, It's not complicated. Five G requires compatible plan and device five G may not be available in your area. See att dot com slash by g for you for details.

Do they have corn? I'm sure they've got corn, and I'm there. You know it was great with Miller Lite Black Right

and Tiger Milber and whatever Isaiah was talking about. Whatever that cake? Uh man, that sounds like such a fun event. I'm naughty. I love barbecue. That's like high on my list. Can you barbecue barbecue? Yeah? I do. I have a smoker. I've got a like I did a brisk at last week. My barbecue mentor is sitting in that room. It's beams beam That dude can smoke some barbecue. Let's freaking have a turkey smoke off coming up? Oh, I mean we're talking five weeks listen. You were talking about the verses

in the forty yard desk. Now let's talk about some verses. Challenge live on my life talking about the bar. I might not be a meat eater anymore, but I still know how to fire up the grille. Within within the last twenty four hours. Stand back, within the last twenty four hours, Beam has challenged me to cornhole, Patrick has challenged me to a forty and Isaiah's challenged me to a turkey cook off. Why does why do I just look like a to be friendly challenge or an easy

victory flannel man's doing for me? To be fair, I didn't challenge you. Yeah, the challenge was placed a pump away. Was about e my guys and all my guys. You don't get elevation. You don't elevate in life unless you're challenged. I didn't You know who elevated this week? Dak Prescott back to the active roster and he's on our Draft Kings players to watch this week. You can play for free for over a million dollars with a deposit on

DraftKings dot com. Dak Prescott sixty seven hundred, but he's going up against the bottom three defensive rank in the NFL. Is Ekiel Elliott. He's six grand, but he's going again against the bottom two rank in terms of stopping the run. Dalton Schultz thirty six hundred. Little bit cheaper this week for Schultzy, but it might be a value pick. And

then the Cowboys defense four grand. Their pricing went up a little bit, but I have been informed that they are the number one rank defense playing at noon, So if you're playing in that noontime slot, you could go and use them for the Cowboys moving into that noon Slid Patrick, who you got your eye on this week? You know what I'm going with, Doughty. I'm gonna go with Dolty. I mentioned no Media Match one yesterday that Doughty was the player that I needed to see more from.

Dak Prescott is now back. If Schultz is healthier or close to healthy, I think this is the game where he reminds everyone that you know he has the chemistry with that and he was his top target. I don't disagree with you, However, I'm going to continue with our defense simply because of the fact that I don't think that Jared Golf can go out there and do what

he's been doing to other teams. Because I think that Dallas and after watching the interview from Vander ash this week where he was visibly angry, That's what I was saying about the run game. You mentioned it, right, but seeing him you ever seen somebody angry in their lip twiget like like like just just a little look, little quiver. His lip was quivering. He was so yeah, like like that dog that you just don't know what that's looking at you because he don't know you either, Like that's

what vander was looking like the other day. And I think that they're going to shut down the running game of the Detroit Lions. And we already know. If they shut down the running game of the Detroit Lions. Now you're forcing Jared Golf to put this thing in the air. I don't think receivers are good enough to beat r DB's forty plus attempts. So I'm going with the defense, Okay, I like it. I'm gonna go with Ezekiel Elliott. We just talked about how I think he's gonna go over

one hundred yards. I'm going with him with six grands. Go put it on there. It's a little pricey, but I think it's worth it. This week. I think he can make things happen all right. Time to make some picks this week and right now we have got some updates. I went three and two last week, or excuse me, I went four and two last week. No, three and three. Sorry, I forgot to write it down. But I picked the Cowboys cooking. No, I forgot to write No, I forgot

to write it down. I'm sorry. Patrick went three and three. Rob and the fans both went two and four. Rob and his final week as a picker. So me and Patrick even last week robing the fans even last week? Where did Isaiah sit? He had himself a week who went four and two. Go boy retakes the lead from Rob Phillips in our Pickham standings this week moving forward, so we've got some games to pick and we've got our guest picker this week. After Mario went two and

four last week. We'll see if Bobby and West Dallas can get the job done. Bobby, how's it going You're on talking cowboys? Man? What's going on? Man? How y'all doing many good with Bobby's world. It is good. I can't believe I'm on with y'all. Man, everybody, man, see what you're talking about the baby. Are you ready to roll? I'm ready to roll, man. I want to give a shout out to the city of Dallas sanitation to Bobby. Appreciate you out about that. That is awesome. All right,

here we go, Bobby. We're gonna let you start things off. This is the Colts, coming off of a win last week against the Titans. Both teams with three wins this season, both teams underachieving to this point. Bobby, who you got? Okay, Well, I'm gonna go with the coach, bron Okay, Colts on the road, Isaiah, No, I'm cooling with the Titans. Titans at home. I'll go with the Titans at home. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna roll with Bobby. Here, give me the Colts on the road to get the win in Nashville.

All right, this one somewhere a toilet flushed as heck Ma Harrison would like to say. The one three and one Houston Texans taking on the one in four Las Vegas Raiders. Raiders trying to find their roove. They are a little bit desperate. I'm gonna take Las Vegas at home at Allegian Stadium to get the job done, is said. Vegas as a team you really don't want to face. They just had a span of bad. Look, they've had some really close games. Give me Vegas all day for

all those reasons. Give me Vegas all right, Bobby with the Raiders, go to Raiders. That Raiders across the board, chiefs at wait for it, the Christian McCaffrey led San Francisco forty nine ers. What a trade that was? Yes, amazing. John lanch is doing his thing. I mean Kyle Shanahan had Debot and Christian McCaffrey to work with. Now, yes, Pats got the dove in that one. Huh, said, Panthers got the second round, third round, fourth round, got an

entire draft home. I think it's great for the running back that can't stay healthy, has not stayed healthy, it's it's a win. He doesn't play in this game. However, that we saw what they did in the playoffs last year, it's not a team that you want to face at that point at times season, sir, Yeah, so give me the Chiefs in this Well, I'm gonna take Kansas City on the road against San Francisco forty Niners playing better, but we'll see what they can do at some point

later on. Chiefs are just too good right now. Yeah, I'm going with the Chiefs. I went against them last week and correctly so. The Bills did what they needed to do. But I'm back on mahomes H Paul's this week. Bobby, you got fellas, will go with the Chiefs. I got the cheeze Chiefs. Isaiah Mahomie, Mahomie, you're going with the Chiefs too, Okay, So Chiefs across the board. Steelers at the Dolphins. This is somehow turned into a really intriguing matchup,

very evenly matched. Steelers got a big win last week against Tampa Bay. Isaiah will start with you. Steelers at the Dolphins. Dolphins to us back, you're not gonna make your Dolphin noise, not today, not that confident. I don't want him to get that. I hope to U. I hope he's okay. Yeah, might take a little bit first quarter maybe to get his time in back again with that receiver corp, but it'll come back. They come up,

it'll come back. I'm not gonna try and make a dolphin noise, but give me Miami, Bobby, who you got man? I was hoping made the dolphin noise, letting the people down. Going with the Steelers, you said, Bobby, Steelers, Okay, there you go? All right, Bears at the Patriots. Of course, the Bears playing the Cowboys next week, and they are on the road of the Patriots, who all of a sudden that found some light with Western Kentucky quarterback Bailey. Zappy?

How about that? Does Zapp attack the Patriots? Get it done? Zap? It's still Zapp the hour, So going with that. That's that needs to be trademark by Bailey if he hasn't done it yet, get in touch. There you go, Uh give me the Pats at home. I think they get it done, Bobby. Everybody on the same page. Man, go to pay all right, and here we go, Cowboys hosting the Detroit Lions at AT and T Stadium. The Cowboys

have actually dominated the Lions as of late. The Detroit side has not won at AT and T Stadium since twenty eleven. So what happened in that game? Megatron went off? He had three hundred and thirty yards, receiving second best and he's a Hall of Famer. Now we got drafted together. Did you actually a pretty cool story about him? Different, Brandon Cornwall, you missed it. We're in Lions week and we haven't had a chance to hear your story. It

was quick. It was during the combine and I got called out to go do extra testing from our heart. So that's not the thing you want to have done in the combines. You're concerned and worried. So they walked me back to this room where we hop on a treadmill and it's a very dark room and you're all loasomed by yourself, and I'm like, crap, man, this is it. Man,

I'm not gonna get drafted. And I opened they opened the door up and Calvin Johnson's and they're doing his his stress test too, and I'm like, okay, I'm good. They took exactly what it was. Yeah, doubt and the Indie Convention Center, those deep dark calls back there at all? Yeah, all right, Bobby, who you got Cowboys and the Lions coming up on Sunday? Man, I still see I They're still making a bad pig man. This heck man, I'll stick up it. Man, I can't do this is heck

mon man, you know what? You know what? Why why you didn't give me the dolphin door? B That was some he I could tell from Beam's voice earlier that it was there was something upset up. There was something upset um. You even gave him a shout out I did. I even mentioned him in the show, and I actually knew it was him at the point I should energy shout out to the Dallas Seditation Department. Was good? Good, that was really good. What's up? Heck? Mother? Good? That's

really funny. Come on, hey, Isaiah, who I'm picking? All right, it's not even a question. You pick detail all day long, all day long. Ya. Did we take it out the trash? Oh? We take it out the trash twelve o'clock. That's awesome. Well done, heck, very very well done. Thanks for calling and ak. I guess Bobby from West deadly Bobby from West Dallas gets it done. I didn't whatever you said, West Dallas, Chris, I was like, it's West Dallas even a thing. I had to go look it up. I

was thinking, like a thing. All right, heck, we'll see you later. Today on the Players Lounge on the Players Lounge later. Yeah you can, yeah, you can, all right, see heckma gosh, heck come on man, that was so good. Y'all be in Ohio as well? Yeah today, none today, but whenever Beamer wants to pull a fast one on us, we are over two. We have not figured it out yet. Good job, Beam, well done man. All right, Isaiah, who you out this week? Whoa being that we just had?

Heckmon there, I'm gonna go ahead and say that the bazooka a our lion goes ham on their lions all day long, So I think Mica has a day and we simply molly wop mush disrespect the Detroit Lions. Yeah, last week wasn't fun because the science told me to pick a Cowboys loss, and unfortunately that was the case. But I'm back, baby. The science tells me that the Cowboys will not only win this game, they will win it handily. And like you guys are saying, there's only

one lion in this jungle. So Michael goes crazy, Deck might put up three tutties, you know, Zeke goes off, Dalton gets involved. Cowboys twenty seven ten. Yeah what you want, I'm gonna go thirty four or thirteen. That was right around what I was tasted. So, I mean, I love the science, I love the passion, but really it comes down to national geographic here, right, Okay, so we're going national geographic tiger milk. Right, Yeah, you got the tiger milk.

I got the tiger milk shirt on Tigers, Lions, Bears. Next week doesn't matter at all. Give me the Cowboys. Baby done this Sunday thirty two thirteen. I'm riding around ja yes, yes, uh yeah, you might be here on Talking Cowboys presented by Black Rifle Coffee.
