Talkin' Cowboys: Whata Forty Burger

Bears forty nine to twenty nine. And I said, on Friday, gentlemen, that win the Dallas Cowboys hit forty points for the first time this season. I would treat the whole crew to water Burger. Well, water Burger has elected to treat us instead. How about that. We've got a forty Burger box. Our guy Brett walking in here. Look at this. We've got water Burger for the whole crew, waters for everybody. Never seen a water burger box box, This is the

new water Burger box. Nice? How about this? Turn this around? How about this? Riddy got the presentation and everything Brian brought us Brian's sitting over here yet I just wanted the regular ones. There you go. There, there's Brian brought us making it, making an appearance as well. We've got the dry stuff for Patrick because Patrick doesn't like ketchup. We don't do the ketchup. Man, that's unfortunate. No, do

we have the great grays in there. Look at the accommodations. Brett, you want to hop on the you want to hop on the mine. You want to talk for another forty five minutes about the Cowboys win a game like that? Yea? No, excited? Uh, actually pulls some things together and man, it's fun to win on. Yeah, you gotta talk into the mic a little bit, but that's okay. You're you're you're fun. No,

I think. I think overall it was a huge win for not only the the offense getting back into it um, but really exciting from a team perspective to see um both sides of the ball um kind of excel on in different parts. So I know you guys are gonna talk more about it. Oh yeah, very excited. Definitely going to Brett Jeffers here on talking Cowboys doing us a great job as always upstairs, and he did he did. He never hesitates, He never hesitates to treat us, and

the Dallas Cowboys treated us as well. Uh. With forty nine points on the board, I mean, it's hard to say that this was the most complete win for the Cowboys, but it was the best offensive performance for the Cowboys, and that you could definitely say, I agree. I mean, forty two points from the offense. Uh, you know, Michael got in there with it with his first NFL touchdown on the scoop and score to take it to forty nine overall. But Dak Prescott and the offense did exactly

what we needed them to do. Isaiah, we talked about it going into the game. They had to get off to a fast start fourteen and oh, doesn't get much faster than that, and they kind of went on from there, and you know, unfortunately, there were some calls that went in the favor of the Bears that kind of stole

the momentum. But Cowboys, as has typically been the case this season, they you know, whether the adversity kept their head up and kept pushing in the pedal got pushed back to the floor, and yeah, ended up being more or less a route. I mean, forty nine twenty nine. But the twenty point differential for the Cowboys. I mean, the final score doesn't actually tell you how badly the Bears got beat yesterday. It really great point really doesn't

pop op out. You were the man, You get the commendations, though the accommodations, well, you don't eat meat, and then Patrick doesn't eat catch up eating literally anything. So I mean this is pretty much right on this. Yeah, I like, I'm great, Well, thank you very much. What a burger, and thank you very much Dallas Cowboys for getting some points on the freaking board. So excited you've been calling

for it. I've been calling for you know, I saw killing more in them and in the hallways, and it was good to see them with a smile on their face. You know, you could tell that they're they're happy to have gotten that monkey off their back. You know, they got the ground game going. He got to get to the passing game, which we know he loves to do. And there's a there's a lot of success offensively, and

obviously you know the defense played their part too. It was just a great collective win again to the ponent that you should beat up on. But regardless of the fact you got almost fifty dogs on points. I don't care who you're playing against in the NFL, this is the highest league that you can compete at, and forty nine points is impress them nonetheless because you you did it early too. That was the thing. You scored a touchdown on your first four drives of the ball game.

That was what was most impressive to me, because not only had the Cowboys struggled to put points on the board period, I mean I put out a tweet that they hadn't scored three touchdowns in a game since last week against the Detroit Lions. They scored three touchdowns on their first three drives of the ball game and only took just over a quarter to do just that. But not only did they struggle to score points, they struggled

to get off to a hot start. We talked about slow starts and how those are concerning, especially against teams that you should beat pretty handled because teams I could run the ball that too, yeah, and that will play a factor down the stretch. But they didn't get off to a slow start. They played from ahead. They controlled that game all the way through, even when Chicago made it a five point game. There was an opportunity for the Dallas Cowboys to turn back around and just give

it right to the Bears. Instead, they went down, they scored on their next drive, and then they had the defensive touchdown and they made it forty two to twenty three. Well, for me, not all yards are created equal, right, So not all rushing yards are created equal. And yes, you can look at it and say, and I've had Unfortunately, I've had some viewers and Cowboys fans that tweeted me last night and say, oh, well, no, see what about the rushing yards. Look, come in your rushing yards. The

Bears ran up on the Cowboys. Not all of those rushing yards were valuable. Not all of those rushing yards were impactful to the outcome of the game. For example, when you get up to when you get onto a fast start and then the Cowboys fourteen zero twenty one seven, right, you're forcing an already one dimensional team in the Chicago Bears, to abandon their primary and sole form of attack, which

is rushing, and then try to throw the ball. Okay, well, first play from scrimmage, they did a goal route against Anthony Brown. Didn't work out too well, and they tried a couple other times during the game before they completely abandoned the passing attack, which is what which was wild to me because you're down multiple possessions and you're still running the ball, which works in the Cowboys favorite because

you're burning clock as well. So the Cowboys at that point, particularly over the course of the second half when they regained control after you know, the overturned fumble, I mean, they had two defensive takeaways that were stolen away from them basically by I'm not even gonna say questionable officiating. I'm just gonna say by very bad officiating. Um, and we're gonna talk about that one that I don't think it was a bad and I don't want to get due far into it. I don't want to get into

with the Gholston roughing the passer penalty. It's a soft call, but that's the rule you're gonna get called if you go head to head with the guy, you go face to face with a quarterback and you get that high on a quarterback, it's going to how do you defy physics on that one? What he didn't go in with any kind of malicious rule. I agree with both of you guys. It's a soft call. But the NFL we play in if you hit a quarterback in the face,

you're getting called. It just is what it is. You don't have to like it, but that's the It's like, how do you guys feel about the overturned fumble? I thought it was a fumble? Yeah, yeah, that was just and agree there no, no, no. I thought the one camera angle from the end zone where it looked like he had controlled it, I don't think that was a great I think it was a terrible look. The one question where you see him fumbling it, that's where they

should have the question. How do you think Dante Fowler feels about being absolutely assaulted in the back field on a critical third down that allows justin fields to a scramble and get a third down conversion. Degree, there's a there was I mean we could look at it both. There was a there was a player where their offensive tackle got their helmet ripped off and throwing by Dante Fowler too. So there's there's calls on both sides that

I obviously could have changed the scope of the game. Um, but at the end of the day, yeah, the running rushing defense is definitely still a problem, and I disagree with you and the fact that it didn't have an effect. It just justin fields just can't throw the ball because Anthony Brown was beat a number of times on some passes that should have been completed had it been for any other quarterback up and say in this league, and those are players that you get away with it because

of who you're playing against. But you still circle down like, hey, we gotta we have to we gotta sure this up because Aaron Rodgers is not going to miss that pass, or anybody else is not gonna miss that pass. Here's my thing on that topic. I don't feel like going back and looking at the game. The Cowboys eventually, after getting up multiple positions, they began to sell out against the past and they basically told the Bears offense, hey,

you can run the ball whatever. You can have these little underneas because to them, that's the equivalent of a little slant here, a little slant there that goes to the bend. Don't break. You can run because also running who works in our favor, because it's burning the clock as well, you're working against her. So now there were plays we talked about the non call on the holding on Dante follow but there were plays with justin fields just simply made made things happen. You know that was

going to happen. Aaron Rodgers, he doesn't have just a fields personiility Jalen Hurts does obviously, but how often are you're gonna go against this melis of a mobile court. At the end of the day, this is a dominant performance by the Caliboys. There's you can look at any game and nitpick and say what should have been called, what didn't get caught? At the end of the day, Dallas Cowboys dominated this this game. I think that was

the expectation. But to go out there and do it, but we still even with the dominance, okay, offensively, there's still some things that you gotta shure up. You have to sure these things up, y'all know. We would try to address by getting big Jonathan Hankins in there, right, he was trying to get his feet wet with the news crew and all that. Jazz's good yesterday too, he was good. It was good, good. There's some good things

in there. So, I mean, there's good things there, But at the end of the day, you're still not signing up to get two hundred and forty yards ran on you. And that's something that I'm know that they're going to try to shore up over there over the break. Not all quality yards, but it's consistent. Though, this is consistent. This is okay, this is not a one If this is a one time thing, I would agree with you. But this has been consistent. Didn't qualify and say I'm

not saying that the Cowboys run defense is fixed. I'm not saying that. I am saying that it's improved with Jonathan Hankins. We've said this going into the game. We believed and hope that it would be. Yeah, Hankins acquitted themselves pretty well. Debut for the Cowboys, I think thirty two thirty three snaps, and he did well what you expected him to do well and what he struggled in is what you expected him to struggle. He did very well in the phone booth, right, but when you stretched

him to the edge, he struggled. You knew that going in. That's the scouting. Why they went to the edge. That's a big body knows her end. Listen, the Chicago Bears do one thing really well, and that's run the freaking ball. And you give kudos. I said on the postgame show. You give you give credit where credit is due. They're not gonna suck all the way around. Okay, they wouldn't be in the league, all right. So there's one thing that they do really well, and that's run the dog

on ball. Whether they're up, they're gonna run the ball off, they're down, they're gonna run the ball. That's by I mean, it's to your point. So I agree with you and I disagree with you. I agree with you to say that Dallas wasn't tripping, but at the same time, like they're not signing up and saying, okay, yeah, let's say that anybody run all over us. It just happens to like, okay, well you're getting it, okay exactly. But what I will say, we talk about things that need to be fixed and

were repaired, even if for last weekend. We'll see how it looks after the bad week. Third down, yes, sir, third down. The Cowboys were nine for eleven at one point I think six or six, seven or seven, there were one hundred percent at one point. The Cowboys they fixed yesterday. At least they fixed their third down issue in a big way. And I love what Dak Prescott said after the game as far as what what did

he think was different yesterday versus previous weeks. As far as why they were so successful, he said, we kept winning on first and second down. When you keep winning on first and second down, you're in third and short. And then let's give pizza boy his roses. Yesterday, right on the third and shorts, he was dialing Moore. He was he was dialing up the pepperoni right, he was dialing up the you know what I mean, the ham that here came with the meat lovers on yesterday. So

shouts out to Kellen Moore as well. Man. He called an excellent game. The Cowboys went out there and they executed. There were some things that need to be cleaned up. You talk about the neutral zone infection on Dante Fowler before he went on to have a big game for the Cowboys. So I mean, again, just all around dominant performance by the Cowboys against the team that they should

have dominated, and so they did. It was their best offensive performance of the season, hands down, hands down, their worst defensive performance of the season, hands If you really had to get into it, I think it was probably their worst defensively, But who cares you won by twenty points. You got it done, you got through, you won the game. You did what you needed to do. A lot of the points came whenever they were trying to come from behind. So that's always gonna happen. You're gonna lapse up a

little bit. And it was twenty eight to seven. It was a beat down happening, and then then beat down subsided. The big thing about that is that there are plays it showed. It showed your offense now has that potential. Up to this point you had not had that potential. Right, everybody was saying, when is it gonna wake up? Will it wake up? Now? You know, oh, it absolutely can. It's on that black rifle coffee. Now it's on that black rifle coffee. And it may not continue that way.

It's gonna have it's ups and it's downs, but it's shown that it can happen again. Back to the offense that you had in twenty twenty one and the offense you had in twenty twenty. With that being said, Tony Pollard, how did we get fifteen minutes into this show and not talk about Tony Pollard? Thirty one yards, three touchdowns, Cowboys run for two hundred of their own against the Bears on just twenty nine rushing plays. That's just under

just underneath seven yards per carry against the Bears. You talk about efficient run game, Isaiah, you found it. Yeah, you found it on Sunday. Yes they did. And the kudos to coach Philbin and his offensive line. They did a heck of a job moving these Bears off the line of scrimmage. And if you haven't had the opportunity to go back and watch it, go back and check it out. These guys are literally throwing grown men out the club. No orange teas allowed. Okay, tell me, alright, no, sorry, whatever.

He would love the orange hunk in here, but Yester, yesterday we didn't like the orange, so we're throwing them out. They're literally throwing guys at the club. And then they were allowing Tony Poller to have his matchups on almost every running play. When you draw it up precisely, every single guy cannot be blocked. I don't know if the people out there know that. If you can't block up everybody on a running play, so you block up the primary guys and you leave one guy for running backs

is your guy to beat? Okay, and that's what they kept doing over and over again with Tony Pollard. Yesterday, they allowed him to get up to his guy that was his responsibility, and when they did so, he won that matchup. That was what you're hoping for. That is what you saw. And this is the result when you allow him to get up to that second and third level against linebackers and safeties for those one on one matchups.

And and for me, it's exactly what you guys said, is you know, kudos and shouts out to Joe Philibin, Kudos and shouts out to that offensive line for the Cowboys, because Tony Pollard did exactly what he was supposed to do, and that he used his quickness, his speed, his ability to make defenders missing space, you know, to get you know, one hundred and thirty plus yards three touchdowns on only

fourteen carries. I mean, it was just ridiculous. He added another fifteen sixteen yards from scrimmage as far as a receiver as well. But he just took over the game for the Cowboys on the ground, which was also predicated upon or by Dak Prescott and the passing deep passing offense getting things going quickly. We talked about the need for Michael Gallup could be involved in this game. Kella Moore stepped up last week and he said, that's on me.

It's on me that Michael Gallup didn't get targets. They fixed it early four. First play of the game, yeah, first play, and just over the course of the first quartering first drip period, Dak Prescott went heavy to Michael Gallup and he was rewarded every single time, and that drive ended in a touchdown. On the next offensive drive, found Gallup again a couple of times, and then he used that to get Ceedee Lamb going Ceedee Lamb had

a great game as well. So now if you're the Bears, we're talking about the Bears having a good secondary, They're like, okay, well, we got to start clamping down on the pass. Tony Pollard was like, hey, hi, I'll take that. How are you doing? And he basically it was as balanced as a dominating, as a domination dominating performance as you see from any team in the NFL. And I don't want to hear oh will it was only the Bears. Again. My thing is hashtag keep the energy because had the

Cowboys and lost to the Bears. You'd be like, oh, you lost to the Bears. Whatever. Dub six and two going too the biweek, Tony Pollard went crazy. He was out of his mind yesterday. He needed a straight jacket. And I loved every minute of it. Yeah, it was outstanding. It was so much fun to watch. And I'm sure whenever we get our Smelly Tis tickers later in the podcast, we'll certainly have one of those saved for mister TP.

But when we come back here on Talking Cowboys, I want to continue talking about the offense, the tight ends. We saw some different looks with them, saw some different looks with Ceedee Lamb as well, and then Dak Prescott. How would you grade his performance in a second week back from injury.

I'm gonna get out the AT and T Stadium for some que barbecue fest. If you see us out there, say some say say hello,

say hi. All right, man, Isaiah. How would you grade Dak Prescott's performance in his second game back yesterday? Is stat line read twenty one to twenty seven, two hundred and fifty yards, two touchdowns, one interception. You did have a rushing touchdown as well, for all was asked of him.

I give him a B plus. Okay, okay, there, I can't quite give him an A just because the ball location on some of the balls that he did throw a lot of there's a good number of balls that were behind and a lot of times that most people just don't see it if you're not looking at those those details, but in understanding how close to bad plays they could be when they're on the back shoulder versus the front shoulder or whatever it may be. So I give him a B plus. I think he managed the

game well. I think that a lot of people, or in a lot of I mean even us prior to seeing the film, we're like, oh, Man, bad decision on the on the one play and on one pass, And I think it was a bad decision by the coaches to allow them to be in throwing in that situation, going closely and going into the half. Kelly him obviously it has to go for Kelly Moore also play Mike McCarthy has to allow for the play to go through.

And then you have the Dak Prescott that it's his job to execute the play, and it looks like it was a bad eric rolled by him, and it really wasn't if you understand the concept of the play. If there was anything, it was Hindershot did a good job of grabbing those linebackers underneath. His job was to grab those both of those underneath linebackers, and then there supposed to be be an end route behind him, which is a perfect cover two beaters. So a great play by by

Kellen Moore, great play call. Ceedee Lamb ran a trash route and Ceedee Lamb is the reason why that ball was intercepted. And I'm Dak is never going to say that publicly. That's something that I always stayed behind closed doors because QB one your nut, your job to Aaron Rockers, Roger guys under the bus. So a great job by mister Dak covering up for his teammates. But everybody in that locker room, and now everybody on the air knows that that was Ceede Lamb's fault by running a lazy,

lazy route. You want to know, And so me and Isaiah haven't watched the film together. We haven't yet. We will at some point, but we haven't done that yet. Hit on that. You want to know what my exact this is my exact write down on how I watched they all twenty two today on Dak pick lamb hesitation led to being a step behind. Dak steps up and delivers, thinking Lamb will cross face with the safety rounded his

route and led to a small window. That window of opportunity was taken by the safety and he made the interception. A lot of people looked at that and said, that's a Dak Prescott interception. No, not so much. The aggressiveness might be. And like you said, there's there's levels of how that decision was made to get to it. First, it goes to Kellen more than it goes through I mean, of course Mike McCarthy's going to have a say at some point, but I think that's the one that did.

He expected it through. He did what he was supposed to do on that play. He made the correct read, he made the correct throw. Ceedee, Lamb did not come flat. He drifted it upfield versus cover two, and that safety said, why thank you. He was supposed to cut right in front of him. He literally drifted behind the safety, allowing the safety to come down. Hell, it's it's it's called being quarterback friendly. But you know what that was similar to?

That was similar to the play into triple coverage against the lines that was last dropped interception. And that tells you that that's something that Lamb and Deck work on in practice, and they've executed in games before. What held the executed it against the Lions outside of that near interception, but Deck has confidence that Lamb can be in that spot and make the play. Lamb did, in fact, kind of pull up a little bit short slow down on

this route. Had he continue to go full speed out of that break, that's another big play for Dak Preston. That was and I tweeted at the time, I said that that was a good throw. That looked like a good throw. It was a great throw. And if if Ceedee Lamb doesn't round the route, and if he doesn't have a little tiny hesitation there, if he just runs it the way that it's supposed to be, then the timing is there. He crossed his face of the safety. Safety is not able to make a play. He's completely

out of the play. It's it's supposed to be a bang bang play. It's supposed to be a bang bang throwers in there. Hendershot did his job by pulling those linebackers underneath it. Literally, by those guys coming towards Hendershot, it opens things up behind them between between those linebackers and the safety. Again, Ceedee, Lamb just did not cry.

He ran more of a post route than he ran an en route, and it supposed to be like a fifteen to eighteen yard en route, which is where you run down the line of like literally across the field, and he literally drifted upfield, which allows for your game of angles. The safety just cut it off. If he catches that ball. There's one player Seedee Lamb on the backside, and it may if it's not a touchdown, it's a it's a big sixty yard game and you're in field goal position. It's a huge play. It was a risk.

It ended up in three points for the Bears. On the other end of it, it wasn't. It wasn't. That was kind of where I was getting to it. Would you be okay with that risk because at the point you had every single ounce of momentum. Sure Chicago was going to get the ball to start the second half, but you had every single ounce of momentum along the way. Why would you try and give an open would for them to get it back? Get back? And the way you draw it up is the way it should have

been done. I mean, so you know what they're gonna be in. You know how you could beat it. You know you have the guys that can execute the play. So I get it from Kelly Moore standpoint. Okay, this is this is just as good as running the ball. But it's just it's it's a risk risk mitigation I would have because you're trying to bury them. You have all the momentum and you're really just trying to punch a hole right their chest with the big plays and you you don't want them to have You want to

leave no doubt, leave no doubt. So when it comes to how I would grate Dak Prescott, you have a plus A minus. I love the B plus. I'm gonna go up two notches. I'm gonna go with an A. I'm not going to say a plus. Why not because there were some throws, a couple of them that were behind, a couple that would have been cleaner. That's fine. I am going to give him a solid A for the fact that the first three touchdowns for the Cowboys. Now keep him on. The Cowboys offense scored a touchdown on

their first four possessions. That was the first time they didn't score a touchdown right on the first three possessions. Dak Prescott was integral in all three of those the RPO was the first one. We saw him break out the legs. Dak broke out the legs RPO. I couldn't have been more exciting. Five yards fantastic. On the next one that the touchdown passed to Cedee Lamb. There you go, so like he was running with them homelone boots on nowhere. It was going nowhere. Oh man, come see your boyd

I got you. That broke out the legs. Be it, you know, speedy Gonzalez, gravity boots. So he used the legs to score the first touchdown for the Cowboys. He used the arm to score through the sale touchdown for the Cowboys. And on the third touchdown, although that was the Tony Pollard just the cuts to crap. But on that same drive third and one QB sneak turned into a twenty five yard game for Dak Prescott and that

again was a touchdown drop. So on the first three, deck was just firing, firing on all cylinders, and the stat line won't show it because you know, he didn't have the three four hundred yard game. What he was was afishing on both the ground and in the air. Whatever they needed to get done to gain yards, to move those chains. He did it, he found his guys. He and I. Yes, he said it was a dangerous throat.

It was a dangerous throat. But you have to play dangerous in situations where you already have that kind of momentum and you're really trying to bury a guy. Break out, the breakout, the Russell Wilson subway sounds just get dangerous. No, you know, I don't know about that. He was being politically correct. He was being he was being he was being PC. DAC was, Yeah, that was It wasn't dangerous. That is that as a that's a day one installed

play Cover two beater, perfect cover two beater. You look backside the U whatever route they had called backside converted versus cover two, so that turns into an outside release go route and in front side you have the little hitch on the inside and you have an in route behind. That is literally you can go on Madden right now and we can and put that in the game, and

you're gonna see that play over and over again. Might see that on hit Stakes, you may see it just saying but so what you're saying is it's a simple play, just an aggressive play call. It's just everybody has to do their job, and that's how close every play is from being catastrophic when every person doesn't do their job. If one offensive linement doesn't do his job, you get sacked. If one running back doesn't pick up a blitz, you

get sacked. If one quarterback doesn't follow through on his release, Guess what's it's a tip ball, or it's an air and throw, it's an interception. If one receiver decides to be lazy on out his break and not come flat like he's supposed to, it's an interception. That's how close every single play is to be in bad. So understand that this is the ultimate team game, that every single guy in the field has to be doing his job efficiently in order for everything to work out the way

it should. The offense did again, not only did it do exactly what it needed to do it and was supposed to do as far as balance goes in the air and both on the ground. Uh, they're not asking Dak Prescott to over or throw himself into these wins. He had twenty five twenty seven attempts this week and he's two window on his return. This is no coincidence.

It's it's where he's throwing the ball. It's the placement of the ball, it's the outcome of the play after the throw that's making it's such a productive passing game, and that's all the Cowboys need. That's all they need. That's a really good point because if you would have said the blueprint and the overall best case scenario for this offense, it's runs, set up the pass and then let Dek Prescott be Dak Prescott as much as he

needs to without forcing things. He's done that the last two weeks, real quickly before we had to break and we do our helmet stickers. What did you think about the tight ends and how they played. I was gonna use the segue of it's a team game and you play and everybody's got to do their job. Felt like the tight ends did that. Dalton Schultz, Jake Ferguson, Peyton Hendershot, Sean McEwen. I thought all four of those guys played their job really well yesterday. Listen. I love what the

tight ends are doing. And we talked about this, and we talked about this, and I said it. I said, you're gonna see Dalton Schultz, not just Dalty. You're gonna see Dalton Scholtz return productions when Deck returns between the last two games, eleven receptions for Dalton shot eleven right over seventy yards yesterday alone, and then he's getting complimentary play from two and a half quarters too. He might have actually gotten up to one hundred if he would

have continued growing football. Then you get to touchdown another touchdown for fur Delicious, that's his second of the season. You talk about paying Hindershot, clearing out guys that you know, throwing as many hog ties as we need. That tight end rooms fire for the Counting US unit, and it's awesome to see, like it was exciting to see those guys collectively having fun. It was exciting to see Hindershot

and Ferguson pushing each other. You see Schultz kind of getting on that bandwagon, like, Okay, I understand I'm pretty sure he understands he's not playing at the level that everybody expecting to play. But so to heck, what when everybody collectively is putting out a great performance and those guys are doing so well, shout out to to the to the tight end room. Linda Wells has all those guys playing well. He has all those guys making contributions.

He has all those guys having a role that they understand going into each game, and they're all executing on it. And I absolutely love it. Whether they're blocking, run blocking, pass blocking, running flat routes, running put, playing fullback, coming out the backfield, catching touchdowns out the back foot as a fullback, all these guys are accepting the role that they're asked to be in and they're doing it well. Yeah, doing it well. And well, we've got some big time

helmet stickers to give out. This one's gonna be tough, it is. There's a lot of players that deserve a Player of the Game scenario from yesterday, So we're gonna have to decide it with three guys. We may even let Biemer give one today because I think I think four guys at least deserve it. My delicious petty Milker more forty burger Monday, when we come back. Right after this on Talking Cowboys, Todd thought it would be secure

to jog in the Cheetahs Savanta. 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

This is awesome. I'm gonna go through. I'm gonna go through the department. I'm just gonna be handed it out. I'm gonna be like Santa Claus, but with burgers and forty burgers folloween. He said, what there's some high quality as two oh yeah nuggets even tastes like there's like a little splash of lemon in there. Maybe it's phenomenal delicious. Patrick nose Walker, Isaiah, standback. We've got Chris Beam in the back. Since there was so much to talk about,

and yesterday's when we're gonna give out four helmet stickers today. Uh, and so we're gonna let Beam do it. Do you want to start? Beam? You want to go ahead and get yours out of the way, now, go ahead, Okay, So we'll let we'll let Patrick nose Walker get okay started. Okay. So I'm going to go with Tony Pollard and for Tony Pollard, I'm going to pick this peach. Why peach? Why? Wonder Well? The reason Tony Pollard gets this peach sticker is because he was giving the Bears his peach to

kiss all AFTERNW on yesterday. A little bit of science on what Tony Pollard was able to do. Only Derek Henry in his two hundred yard outing on yesterday, had more rushing yards over expectation, and no one in the league had a higher yard per carry tally than Tony Pollard nine point four. Wow, that is insanity. He didn't want nine point five the bum for the same reason the Cowboys underwhelming, the same reason the Cowboys didn't go for two. And he's never gonna get a contract like that.

Kill any go for two, get us to fifty. So selfish. But yeah, Tony Pollard gets the peach because he was giving the Bears his peach to kiss all yesterday. You know it's funny you bring up going for two and getting the fifty When I play like Madden or NC douabaa the video games. I hate landing on forty nine. I would rather be at forty eight than forty nine, so I always go for two. I don't care. I always will go for two. I am a jerk. I

just want the fifty to go. I'm not gonna get there and be at I would rather be at forty eight and give it my all than to be at fifty. Sport you look at your sportsmanship. Take that sportsmanship and shove it. Uh all right, Beamer, you said you wanted to go second. Who's your helmet sticker today? All right, my helmet sticker is gonna go to the tight end group. Okay, okay. They had nine catches for ninety yards in a touchdown celebration for the ages. I like it. We're gonna give

them some grapes. They look like peas in a pot. So we got some grapes out there. I'm gonna put those up there. There's some grapes. Yeah, there you go. Let's put that on the helmet. We'll give it in the tight ends. I like it, Beamer with the tight end on the camera to do this is nice. I like the two box. We didn't just keep this. Let's shop that. Make it on the camera. Cowboys. If you're a beam on the cam and be a good day for a good good day for Beamer. There we go.

I'm gonna give mine to the big man up from Zach Martins. He was fantastic yesterday. The whole offensive line really played well, but it was Martin that led the way. You talk about some of the early runs. They were walling people off Terrence Steele to his left too, really benefited from that, or I guess it's right benefited from that. But I'm gonna give a lemon because everybody was sour on that defensive front because they just could not asked

Zack Martin. So I'm giving the limen for Zach Martin. Something helmet helmets. All right, guys, um see my guy right here. Look at this guy right here. Huh those are bucks over his head. Look at the glasses on it looks so studious. But this right here is for mister Kellen Moore. Was Kellen Moore brought all the wisdom that he could bring when he talked. He did like this too, all the wisdom I could bring all right to the game, all right. He brought that hot fire.

And these are all the playbooks. Okay, those are the playbooks that he brought anybody, but not just just laid it out there on the line and the guy's executed. Some guys didn't, but otherwise forty nine points. He was in his he was in his bag, grabbed some books out. I like it, you guys, do Kellen Moore so dirty on the on this show. You're talking about him as the you're talking about him as the pizza guy. What what are you referencing. It's a it's a Troy Achema

reference to Kellen Moore. He just sayd This goes back to Kellen Moore's first year as offensive coordinator broadcast. Yeah. Yeah, it's like he looks young enough to be the be the pizza boy. That's why it's still you'd rather you'd rather know, you'd rather be you know, arched with looking younger than your age than the opposite the pizza We say with love. You just sounded like hercle or it's something I don't even know I come and even if and even if you were tagging him as ercle he

was stefan or killed yesterday. That's a fact. But you know what, we'd be remissed before we before we started rap, but we'd be remissed to point out that not only did the Cowboy have a fantastic performance yesterday on you know, defense in both offense, but they were doing it without some key guys there. Malik Hooker wasn't there, he was out with injury. They lost Donovan Wilson at some point in the game with injury. So the Cowboys weren't even

whole yesterday Noah Brown as well me. You know, he hadn't practiced or anything like that. And then you know the inactors come out. But the Cowboys weren't holding. They still went out there and hung forty nine on the school board, and they could have had sixty if not for you know the side argument, you know, the Revere and maybe call holding it. Well, the Cowboys could have hung sixty yesterday. So just fantastic and as delicious as this.

What a burger that followed the victory. Yeah, I think it's a great time for a bye week because you're a little banged up on both sides of the football, most notably the defense. Though that defense has been nasty all year long. But they've got some guys that that certainly they would like to get back, and fully Helps wasn't playing. Sam Williams wasn't available. Of course, Micah was questionable this week. He played and played through it all.

But my boy damone stepped on the field yesterday. He was out there. But yeah, I think he looked like rookie. Yeah, that's gonna happen. It's debut. He had had some rookie rookie struggles, but they weren't glaring. Yeah, he didn't give up any big plays. And it's arguable that the sack that was credited to Tank in the second half should have been split half season between him, between him and

Deman Clark. So I saw a good start for demon Clarks, especially considering and he and he got thrust it into That's what I'm saying. The bar going out, he wasn't. It was a pleasant surprise that he was active, first of all, but even in being active, my expectation was handful of defensive snaps. Barr went out, they went looking

for Demana said hey, it's it's now like gold. And he went in there and talked to him yesterday after the game and he said it took all of one defensive snap for the jitters to be gone, get out of there, and he one he hit a guy and he was like, oh, this is still football, this is still what I do, right, So he said the light years he's doing. He did tell him, he said he's gonna take it well, one week at a time, get back to the drawing board and try to build on yesterday.

But he said he's fully confident that the LSU Deman or better will show himself before the season is over. Oh man, I like that a lot, and hopefully we get to see a little bit more from Demone Clark. We'll see a little bit more of you guys this week, but you're gonna be on different shows. So Tuesday and Wednesday we're mixing up all the podcasts like we do

every Bye Week every year. For those of you that will listen on Talking Cowboys, it'll be myself with Nate Newton, six time Pro Bowler, three time Super Bowl champ, and Brian brought us. That'll be the I'm excited about that. That's two really good dudes for firing us, Kyle, I didn't fire anybody that. If you think that is where my favorite is way to go for the bat for us. You are just get rid of the guys with the dread whoa, whoa whatever. Whatever the truth is out there,

it's not No, that's not the pizza. So that's what it was. Um, what show are you on Isaiah this week? Oh? No, one o'clock. That's all I know on. I mean, if you're on at one o'clock, wouldn't that be hanging with the boys? I guess so I believe that's tomorrow. I'll be on Girls Talk, Boys Talk with Haley Sutton. Oh that's dope. Yeah, it's you, Haley, and there's one other person on there is another there's a third who is the third on there? Oh that's right, it was on
