The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. This is the player's loud broadcasting live from Dallas Cowboys World headquarters at the Star. No. Your hosts, Barry Church, Danny mccraig, Ritt Johnson, and Nui scrugs. All right here we are players, not trying to Friday
everybody USCP baby, Let's do it. That's that's that Russell authentic all right there, that's the actual jersey that goes over the past, no stretch, just no, this this is this is an old older model to this older jersey. He did they gave me back when I was up on the board of trustee. Okay, so that's a trust that's a trust day, that's authentic. Yeah, New York City one, New York City too, ain't working working trustee, my old trustee new Yeah, you in good hand. I'm gonna take
care of you. I'm gonna take care of all right. Hey man, I tell you on the back, there's the same trustee on the back. Turn around. Let the people see board of trustees US scholarship, don't it is? It is? So yes, yes, you would see you would see Pembroke Brains. There we go our back in action at home in Penbroke on Saturday for the first time since COVID, so we haven't had had a game since twenty nineteen. So we're back kids it on Peak up. Boy, don't I wish?
I believe we got a YouTube lake playing as the crack of Dawn Bull. All right, I'm done. Everyone to know when you come here on the players lounging, you do I knew. I knew to Rid a cube, why he would to Rid a cube? And chokes that I would get by coming on this show from the Toledo Rocket, sir Rick Johnson, the Fresno State Bulldog, and Danny mccradye National championship winning LSU Tiger. But you know what, I
got that kind of pride. I can take these jokes like slim shady man, go ahead say something else about that. I'm houd yo. I love it, man, I love it, Q Dog representative man, Hey man, if you have no pride to where you're from, them, what you're doing, and what you're doing here. So but good luck it looked at the Brave Tomorrow I can't beat there. I'll be on a flight to Los Angeles for this Cowboys Chargers game, which we will dive into right here on the players
Line Hotels dot com. And for a head coach Mike McCarthy, the hits just keep on coming. Right tackle tie and Secki who we expected you back up, Terrence Steel, it's not going to play in the game. And Secky left yesterday the Star in an ambulance heat exhaustion. You actually saw you saw a little bit of what happened yesterday. Yeah, man, I stood up, I saw ambulance, uh, ambue lance and now I saw I saw it. I came and turned three, try to get try to get his slugs back now,
but no, I saw it. Sitting outside, we were wondering what was going on, what player it was, and how serious it was. And we found out today that you know, right tackle and the iron end is right, a right tackle is uh, you know, out of the game for Sunday. So what does that do for depth? Don't work? He listened Brandon Knight right there, he was number three, number two, Ezekiel Elliott. All right, so we are right ze ze Zeke's second and then so we just lost our third
team right tackle. So Brandon Knight, who got activated off the COVID list this week. Brandon Knight is, uh, that's going to be your backup, your swing tackle right there in case something happens to Tyrn Smith on the left or or Terence Still on the right. So it's going to be Brandon Knight. And we didn't get to talk to Brandon Knight about just you know, how is he
feeling coming off COVID. We talked with Zack Martin. Zack had some effects here, So don't know exactly what's going on with Brandon Knight and just and I don't think we talk about that enough. Is you guys had it? What are you feeling right? And that's and and you guys you're football players, so a lot of times you guys don't want to even tell anybody just what aches
and pains you have. So bestial you're coming undrafted, I mean, this is just shot, like this is your shot to see improve that you can be in the league and you can hang with the big dogs. So if anything happens, you're gonna keep it under the rug. You don't want them to get any excuse to pull you out or do anything like that to try to try to basically take away your chance. So I mean, you're gonna play hurt,
You're gonna play through everything. I mean, it's just it's just like that's the nature of the beast that and it's nothing like being one of those players where coach says, I know he can play through anything. Right, So you're gonna go out there and you're gonna try to be the toughest guy that you can so you can gain the respect of your players, I mean of your coaches and your teammates. So yeah, you you're not trying to
sit off anything. Yeah, coach, I'm one hundred percent. I'm ready. Yeah, And then you know you have to get beat like a drum a few times. You'd be like, man, that COVID got me bro, and I just didn't want to say nothing. I mean, look what happened to Camoon last year.
I mean, with that COVID situation, who knows what the effects happened to him because he was he was that first game, I guess Seattle, I believe he was on fire for one hundred yards, a couple of tds here and there, then that COVID struggling and the rest of the season just you know, went downhill. Yeah, and the next year too, man covid for twelve months back Jones happening and won't get back to night Man and won't
get back to me. He also ain't ain't going to play for Washington either, because it looked like they got them a guy. I ain't nicky. You're right, you were absolutely right. Washington losing then't winning. Last night the Indian was crazy. The the all I kept thinking about it was how I'd be ready to I'd be ready to put Paul's jumped offside. He's lucky, he's the first round game one man, what are you doing? And the head coaches special team's cat, that's your special Yes, judge, Joe,
jud this is what you're supposed to be. Now, remember he got anybody running laughs. You know he the detail like coach of Belichick jumps off. I think I think y'all missing the biggest one, his first round pick. You know, coach is supposed to this guy. This dude is lined up over the ball. You know, he's the closest guy to the ball, so he should be the last dude to jump outside. What was he thinking? How LP you should try to get people with the you know, the
fake snaps. He's just moving the ball around. But I didn't see any of that. Boy, Just what's he going off commands? I don't because you usually see that from the edge cast. They're trying to get a great jump off the edge so they can go in there and you know, block the kicking all that stuff. So occasionally they might jump off sides, but you right over the ball. Literally your eyes is looking down at the ball, and my man jumps off side, cause him the game. But
that's what losing teams do. They find ways to lose the game. Slaton dropping wide open touchdown passes. I mean, these are the team, these these teams they found. And it's unfortunate because Daniel Jones I think looked really good. Yeah, I thought he looked I thought he looked good as well. I did not know he was that fast, I'll tell you that. Yeah. I was like, you gotta say Barkley, and you remember I called back. But still if he didn't throw, you don't if he don't trip up his
own feet. Last year he did, but baby downs got some wheels. When he comes out there, you just like look at his demeanor. He's you know, he's just like this goofy dude out there, and I'm like, man, ain't no way he's taking off j That's what he looks like exactly. He made Landing Collins look like he was running in sand out there. Like the way he took off on him. I was like, Wow, I'd tell you that that game made me feel more comfortable about winning.
Cowboys going in to this game on something, just so you know, for our ability to win, just because everybody was going in talking about this this daunted Washington football team defense man. And then I was like, man, they only put up twenty points gonna Washington. They should have got forty put up on them last night by Danny Dobbs. Yeah, we're gonna put sixty on them. Well, you're talking about we don't care about that. We've benna score. We're going to score on these dudes. And we went in by
seven at least. We're talking about the Skins are the Chargers. No, I'm talking about when we played the Charger. So the Chargers played they not the skin, the football, and the Chargers put up twenty points barely on the football team. New York came out there yesterday. Jason Garrett had it down up my man, Danny Domes rushed for ninety five yards. He almost stop for three hundred. Slayton drops the touchdown.
They call it a touchdown back on Danny Domes. This is a runaway gate and they and they should have won. My man jumps outside. Yeah, this is this is the defense. This is the defense. We're like, yeah, we're worried about man because they tell a defense man we're gonna have some trouble with them. We might have a little trouble.
They're not gonna stop us. I have more faith in our offense now than I did yesterday when I said we was gonna win by seven, saying yes, I got to convince myself a little bit, man, But it's all right, okay. As I watched the game, I said, oh, yeah, we're gonna do some work against these dudes. What was your drinking while he was doing I had some some some rose, okay rose. I actually had an October fest. Uh okay. So the spirit got in him, so that's all good.
The Giants are now oh and two. This is their fifth straight ear starting o and two. They are o and two for an eight time the last nine nine years. They are four and eight in weeks one and two since twenty eleven. This is a bad organization. Yeah, this is right, this is him, and Giant fans will come at Cowboy fans and say, hey, we've we've won two super Bowls since you last one one one. It's fine, but right now this is just a bad organization, and
I will defend Jason Garrett shocking him right. No, no, you actually don't have If you say anything other than good stuff about Jason Garrett from last night, just you're just hating. The New York fan base is on him for something s doing. Guys, he hasn't He doesn't have a lot to work with, and you're judging a man on his offensive game plans and he can't do this.
He can't do that. The carpenter needs his tools, and Jason Garrett, if you give him some tools, I believe he can can can dial up plays in this league. There are a lot of people who are just just dumping on the guy. And I'm sorry, I just I am just one of those that believes that. Um all, you know so many of these coaches that were mad at things there, Well, you don't have this, you know
what's around him. Lamar Jackson taking a beating on Monday night on Twitter for people and Gil Brand like, league's caught up with him. I'm sorry, did you see the running back not get his block and he got strip sacked? Do you see how many players are hurt? I mean the right tackle. I mean, you know you may be out on Terrance Steel, but you see that right tackle for Baltimore. Mike got me, Mike Gosh stiff. Well, Lamar Jackson gonna die if they keep letting him go out there.
I wonder Pittsburgh let him rag. I mean he looked cook cooked, He's washed, cooked, washed. So so I'm getting Jason Garrett's back from these New York fans to say, hey, look to your general manager. Still terrible, still about put up forty last night? What a what a limp? And say Quon Gallow they're not doing what he need to do, and they still got they leave the field with the league. League. So I mean Keller Moore's great. We say Keller Moore
is great. They left the field, you know, back played great, left the field with the league. In somehow, some way the defense found a way to let him get in the field. Y'all think, say Quan is he that guy or is he just a gadget guy? Not anymore? Did you see did you see him last night? He had nothing behind him when I'm talking about he was getting hit and knocked back with every time you see the first play, living like him to hold on. It seemed
like he's like, you know, he's worried. He's still worried about his injury and stud That's what I thought it was. He's not back. He's not back. Yeah, he's not. Somebody talked about trading Brandon Jacobs for Barkley in the Fantasy League. I'm look, what are you doing? No? No, you bring him back at six two hundred and seventy running back. He didn't. He didn't. He didn't look he didn't look the same. Like I said, Galla day. Uh. He dropped,
didn't do much. He dropped two passes. Slayton drop drops the pass and Jason Garretts out there dollar it up and him and Danny Domes is out there trying to the game on the back, you know, and they had it one all right. So what is it like in the locker room when you go through a loss like that on the road. I'm gonna tell you that I ain't never been through nothing like that. Like when you when you have a guy where you can point at one particular play, one guy that costs you a game
because they kicked the goal. He missed it, the game was over. I was over. So I can't imagine how that one guy is feeling, right, does he feel like they ain't? Do they hate me? Like what you know, like it's like, you know, they pissed off at you because that's a dub, right inc. I think it's all on how that guy reacts. Now, if he goes in there and he's just like we almost had it fellas next week, then it's like hold on, man, you don't want that conciden, then people might come at you a
little bit. But if he's over there beating himself up, just like you know Sean Lee used to be when he would you know, miss up one player or something like that. He was mother, you know himself and all this other stuff, then it's kind of like, how you know what you gotta kind of you know, pack the down him and I don't know that. It's a tough situation. It's always always also depends on like who he is to the team in the locker room, right, is he Is he one of the main guys. Is he a
guy that everybody looks looks to to follow. Is he one of the leaders or is he one of those guys who shows up late, always messing up, always messing up? I always got the excuse for something. Depends on which type of guy you are. For for how your teammates are gonna look at you if you wanted them slackers, they're looking at you like, bro, yeah, get them out. So Brent, if you're in the locker room, what's the question you ask m oh um to him or um?
I mean you obviously one of one. We want to know what happened in that situation, and how does that happen in that situation? And are you blaming yourself in this situation? Who are you talking to? Yeah? Yeah, that's a tough one, right, Hey, bro, is this is it your fault? Y'all lost? I want to know how you feel about it? Yeah, but I mean it's tough. It sucks what you're running from the from the media or would you take it on? You take cham that one.
We'll see. Okay, this new COVID, do they bring him out to talk? No? Nah, that's that's the that's the the you know that they have opportunities, like you know, Zerline didn't talk after that. After that Bucks lost because you know, the mixed miss kicks. But that's so it's it's a lot different than when you should go in the locker room before you know, he talked. Yeah he did. He said that it was his fault and blah blah blah.
Yeah he did talk Nick Nick Nick interviewed him after, Oh, when you feel safe like that, b Yeah, you know he ain't going nowhere, you know, that's that's good. If he's the first that dude first he was the first round or what like two years ago? I believe the one I jumped offside. I think he was the first round or two years ago. But it's just how he, like you said, is how has he perceived in that
locker room. Is he one of those guys it's hard working who you know, never messes up and it's just this time it was a kind of a flute incident. Or is he one of them guys that's late coming into meetings, don't really know the answers and stuff, and you know it isn't playing up to its potential. I think that has a lot to do with how that locker room will react in that situation. It's interesting. I'll
get my first locker room this year. I didn't get to go to the locker room in Tampa because NBC NBC five at the game, so I was immediately on the field afterwards. But I'm gonna be interested to see how how how locker room is going to be running this year. I'll tell you what I do miss so much. And the best thing about being in the media is after the game. Jerry Jones talking. That's that's the it's the best content. I mean literally, we would skip Jason Garrett,
Jerryson Garrets talking. Okay, um so Gary, Jerry Jerry. That's what love game. I used to love it because then everybody would flock to Jerry. I hurry up and go to the bad little shower up and be about of there because everybody's still up on Jarry. It to Marco, I did it a couple of times. I get it a couple of times. Used to run from everybody. He just ain't like, yeah, ain't. He thought everybody was out

She was talking they moved their whole they moved their whole studios into so Far Stadium. So now that he can just he's in there. He just walk right over to the stop to the NFL network and get it in.

But Jerry Jr. Said some interesting an interesting choice of words. I guess you could say we've got something, got some
all right, We're gonna take a break. Jerry said something today on the radio that I want to get each each of you give me your take about it, because it kind of surprised me that someone as successful in life as Jerry is would hold this opinion.

I want my stuff stolen away from me in my gears, you were about to lose your job, Old Jo. The stakes were made that day, the stakes were made. Got neat that old sticky things. Joe now Klepto was real man. Man. That man was out here thieven and then got a deal from it.
Get like a meat under this deal from me or something like that. He got a deal, right, I think it's like a four year deal. Leaving meat on the bone. He was leaving meat on man.

It was not Players Lounge brought to you by Hotels dot Com. Okay, what's up? This is something I'm gonna start with you go around
the room here. I would assume as a billionaire, a man in the Pro Football Hall of Fame who owns the most valuable franchise in the world, would not really care what the masses thought about him. But Jerry Jones told one or five three the fan today that he follows what people say about him, really, that it's human nature. Like he looking at comments and stuff. And a friend said him, why in the world do you listen to talk radio? They're wearing your proverbial butt out, And Jerry said,
I like payin. I just like to hear it, just put it in me. I just this is the mean. Would you care if you were Gerald Wayne Jones what people said about you on the radio? Go Na, I'm not kidding what anybody he says. How about the Cowboys for what? What do you bout him? For? One hundred fifty miles? Yeah, something around that. It and he turned it into the most profitable franchise in sports. We're talking
about soccer overseas, We're talking about all that. This man has turned this franchise into the most profitable organization in sports. I don't give a damn what nobody says. I'm running in how I want to run it. You got people talking about, oh, you shouldn't meet a GM. This is mine. I started this barbecue business, all right, this is this is my situation. I'm gonna running how I please. I wouldn't give a damn so you you wouldn't care. Nope, Britt,
I can understand how he would care. I feel like a lot of people that become successful become that way because they do kind of care. They kind of you know, cater to like, Okay, well what do the people want? What are they looking for? And he provides that I don't want to say like ego, but you know that energy, that presence of somebody that's like, oh, I'm engaging with y'all. I'm interacting with you guys. And that is why I
think partly reason why he's so succes us. Well, so I can see, you know, I mean, old tricks don't really die, you know, you kind of keep going and keep being the same person that you always were. And if it was he was, you know, big on his whatever ego and stuff back in the day, I don't see it just going away just because you got some money. So yes, they listen, I wouldn't care, but I like,
I do understand why Jerry camps. All right, at this point in life, right, so Jerry Jones, Bosa Cowboys, they go through, they start winning, He's hearing all the great things about itself, right, all great things, and then all of a sudden, you have this long period of time where he's successful in every other part of owning this franchise and his other endeavors and everything except winning and being in the gym because they haven't won a Super Bowl,
so he doesn't see that as success. So he's waiting. He wants to hear that success, so he listens, he listens, and then he's going to throw it back in your face. If he wins a super Bowl, he's gonna make Ego try to make everybody eat all those words that they said about him, and over those years they never gonna win another one, never gonna do this. As soon as it happens, he's coming in, y'all. Yeah, a lot of
times too. I always feel I say this all the time, it's impact over legacy, and I feel like sometimes people, yes, they have he has his three super Bowls and this legacy that is the Dallas Cowboys. But you're always looking for that impact. What impact am I providing on the group of people right now? Are people positively impacted? Negatively impacted? And obviously he wants to go out with a positive impact on people for sure. So yes, no, no, yes, yes,
I'm with you. No. I recently saw a video by Kid Frazer CEO, Murk and Brother from Philadelphia and he said his dad told him a long time ago, said, Kenny, what people's opinions about you and what they say about you is none of your damn business. And what he was trying to instill in him was you have to go do your work, and you have to go do what you do and not worry about all of them.
And when I think about Jerry in nineteen eighty nine, just the mere fact that he paid the number he did for the team, he was criticized people like you're a fool. And one of the biggest things people criticized Jerry fold was not buying a team. They criticized him because he had to buy Texas Stadium too, like, you don't want to be in the stadium business. Who runs the stadium business better than Jerry Jones right now? Nobody They go to Jerry Jones to figure out how to
run a stadium. So FI stating where we're going to that was this is Jerry World times too, because they're taking everything I first walked into that Minnesota statements like this is little Jerry World. It is. Everyone has copied Jerry Jones. Jerry Jones got to where he was by not caring. He's the guy that went and got Jimmy Johnson. But what are you going to getting this college coach for?
Then Jimmy came here with the philosophy of you know what, we are going to be fast we're going to be quick. Everybody's sai get in the NFC. He going against the giant screens. Why you gotta be big, they said, no, they go one to fifteen. Everybody's calling him huckleberries. For years later in Pasadena the Rose Bowl lifting up their first Lombardi Trophy. He didn't care, which is why he got to where he did, which is so surprising that
I hear now Jerry said that he does. But he did care, though, But he's telling you that he did. He always has, and that's what pushed him to do it. Do it his way so he can show y'all his ways, to correct way. But if he listens always, he wouldn't have. He wouldn't have, wouldn't got the stadium. No, no, no, no, no, no, no no no. He cared. He wasn't going to go the way that they said he should go. But it's like, oh yeah, all right, y'all, y'all think I'm y'all think
I'm a dummy. All right, that's cool, I'll show y'all. I'll show y'all. And he keeps putting them talking about that chip, the proverbial chip on the show that he should have should he should that's I think that's that's that's a part of how he's become and been so successful, because yea, at seventy eight, when do you just for me? I was just think it's seventy eight years old. I wouldn't care. The bulk of your chapters are written. You know,
you he has nothing to prove. I do you think he thinks that though he has a desire to want to win another championship, because you're in that business. It's a competitive business. You know, if you're here, you want to go ahead and win it. But the sense that I need to listen to the radio to hear what Jojo and Plano says about me, Nah, I don't care. That's okay. But at the same time, it also comes
to just having these devices and social media. I know some people that just pour over this stuff all day along and I just I just don't live in that world because I just get the fact there's a whole bunch of people who are on this thing for one thing only, right, and then you got these eggs that come after. So I just said, passed that point in my life of caring about certain things. Be Jerry Jones, in my opinion, when this man went into the Hall
of Fame, it wasn't for the way. That's why I as a party, I had a fun time with you, like he hasn't one of anything so long. And the man didn't go into the Hall of Fame for for for winning. He went into the Hall of fame because he changed the way the innovators he made. He taught everyone how to make money. He taught I will never forget being in Art Modell's office when he owned the
Cleveland Rounds. Art couldn't stand here, couldn't stand him. In the meantime, Art lost his tenants, the Cleveland Indians, because they built him a brand new baseball stadium downtown. So now he didn't have a tenant, and that was a whole lot of money, and Art was using his own He had to borrow a half million dollars from a bank to pay Andre Risen because he he have it. Can you think about that? You own an NFL team and you ain't got enough money? Mean, could you imagine?
Could you imagine Genie Buss, I need to get a loan so I can go. He did actually ask the Hunt for one hundred million dollars a million dollars last year for that small business loan for COVID. They had to give it back when they got caught. Everybody was getting that, everybody's doing that, but but they he ended up having to move the team and sell the team. Who has to sell the team because you can't can't afford it. But he didn't want to listen to Jerry.
He didn't want to listen to Jerry. Jerry got in the Hall of Fame because he changed the way the NFL works. He coud helped create Fox Network. I mean, this guy changed the way. Was he the only one that like left the owners group of like they need like branch out on his own and the marketing? Yeah, which I think about it. He's like, hey man, why why did the Bengals get the same cut as me? Yeah? Yeah,
Bengals ain't on Prinze'. Well they're not out here like I am with Dallas Cowboys stores and merchandise and putting stuff out there. Um, I don't know where when when you grew up in California, when you go to the store, of how much Cowboy merchandise was was there's always Cowboy? Yeah, there's obviously teams you don't ever see. And then but I've never gone somewhere not seen a Cowboys thing ever. Yeah, I actually live in Georgia. There were only three jerseys available,
the Falcons, the Steelers, and Cowboys. That was it. The old JC Penny, that was it. So just so Jerry was right selling store. But that was just kind of how what he did and helped build him and it basically taught other people this is what you need to be doing.

It's time to make free Dick Jones here on a bootball Friday. We already made ours yesterday. We'll remake them again. But Britton says she was holding out because, all right, I don't know why, Okay, I wanted the padded practice was yesterday, so I was trying to see and look it we lost another person. Would you like to touch on last week first? Are
you just you just want? We don't need a reapppened last week? We must, we must, we must get receipts out. So everyone picked Tampa Bay to win the game, which are happy. Three of us picked the Buccaneers to cover the spread, which they did not. Danny was the outlier. So Danny is, um one, Okay, we're all okay, so we're all one and oh On wins. Okay, gets the spread. Danny is our champion at one and no, okay, I'll take it. Okay, there you go. I'll take a week one,
thank you very much. Weak week spread is three and a half. Yeah, um, I think we are going to win. Win. I think we're gonna win. Okay, so she go go straight stealing Danny. Danny smart, Okay, you're smart. You want to win already said this. I mean I don't think by seven. I think maybe by three. But that doesn't matter. If you're the spread, make sure you put that down to no, no, that doesn't matter a little asterisk by it. What do you want? He said they went by three.
I said they went by seven. Just kids have come down to like, you know, that's top breaker at least two of the top three defenders out what I saw last night, I actually after we knew this, actually having defended a defensive question for you guys. So should we get the straight? Church? You had Dallas losing by ten, right, Yeah, that's a big elbow with the offense. We had we don losing by teens. Who cares if they said they're
not gonna stop us on defense, gonna play. So so make sure we get the straight because we need we need the video receipts. It's always always helps you because Barry does like to forget sometimes. So Church has the Chargers winning and you have the winning by ten. Danny, you've got the Cowboys winning. You got by seven. Brett has the Cowboys winning by three. I have the Chargers winning, but I have the Cowboys covering a bit closer. Okay. So that's where that's where we stand right there. And
I got the Mighty Braves Pembroke winning and covering. Trustee, trust the trustee, Dusty y'all the pocket, Hey, we got tickets for you for the game. He comes into trustee section here. But I can never make it. I can never make it exactly. We're gonna be the only one in say, let me ask you this man, what matchups are y'all looking forward to? Sin Like? What out of this? Like? What? Who who's gonna be? Whos gonna win this matchup? They
won on one matchups this week? Listen because y'all think it's gonna be most The most interesting matchup is once again our old line versus their especially with all the question marks that we have there. And then if you want to flip it, our d line versus their old line because we got taking Randy who probably aren't playing. So I think the trenches is what a matchup is. Trenches is where it's at. So, guys, but the d n's being out and we have these new guys in
there and we have literally a ton of linebackers. I don't know if this is a crazy question, but would we see any um series or plays where we would have Parsons at d ND or even Kenue at safety, Like is that something that could possibly happen? Just not whole game, but you know what I mean. Just I think we'll see Parsons and Jaalen line up on the edge throughout this game and rush I don't know if we'll see uh Neil as safety, but I think I
think for sure we'll see some different guys rushing. Some of those linebackers will be rushing off the edge or maybe on the guard or over the center and at the safety position. It depends on what happens with Casey. Now, if Casey, you know, he's on the injury report, I
think it is fire. Something like that is a the other guy too, Wilson and Wilson's also, if something were to happen to where we got Hooker in there and they would have to move Kean O'Neil back, I can see something like that happening, only if Ksey can't go the full time. But as far as those linebackers on the edge, I do see there's some packages for Parsons to get off the edge, just to provide a little
pop off of that edge. But you don't want him over there too much because then that takes his playmaking ability away, his sideline and sideline away. So I could see every now and then them getting down there. I see mostly Jalen be getting more than six He's getting more than sixteen snaps this game. Parsons can handle them edge. Oh yeah, yeah, I think he can. I mean he showed it in college. He was able to get eight sacks um that one year before he had took out
for COVID, So he's a proven rusher. I wouldn't put him there each and every day because they'll wear on him. Yeah, those big boys are wearing on them. But to have some pop, I for sure I can see him on the edge. Brian blogg is the right tackle for the Chargers. Rashaun Slater, your guy is a left tackle for the Charger. Blogging those uh dealing with injuries, Yeah, they just and he's he's just not good anymore. He's up there. So if you want to put parsons on blogging and see
what he can do and run around him. And this is what we're going to see, Dan Quinn earn his money. This This is what you do as a coach. You have, you got warts. How do you cover up thwarts and get him out there? These games are one in the trenches. Are we gonna leave our second? Because I agree with you know, we gotta blitz. We gotta find out some way to generate some pressure. But that's gonna put our secondary, you know, under the you know, it's gonna be a
little harder for our secondary outside of digs. I'll tell you this. Whoever rushing, I know that all right. If you Parsons are Jalen, if you're rushing on the back, if we putting pressure on the back trying to make him have to pick up the block to save the quarterback, you better get home and make the play. That mean we're sending five at least right if the bat got
to stand for protection, you better make the play. This is a matchup that I believe our linebackers can win throughout the entire night, what entire day, what's our faith and special teams? This week at general and brick Um, I mean I have a little bit more than last week. I liked the zerline just automatically after the game, took ownership of the situation. Um. But I feel like we are going to be pulling some of those guys into, you know, the regular starting lineups because we're down so
many people. So um, people are gonna be pretty tired in the game. It's gonna I think the first couple of our first couple quarters will be good and hopefully we're up ahead enough to where we don't have to rely on our special teams like we had in the past game. Um, but I have a little bit more faith in them than I did earlier in the week. You know, Yeah, I think UH two is something that
we're really trying to avoid. I think, and then when you get into those desperate type of situations, you will see a fake here, maybe on on punt, maybe on field goal. I think you'll see bones Foles come out here and pull one of those uh one of those trusty dusty fakes. Hopefully it's in the right territory or in the right situation of the game, and hopefully it's successful. But I think we'll see something like that coming. I think they're lying to be better as well this week.
I think the special teams will will will will pull that away. The unit that needs to be a lot better this this this week has got to be that kickoff unit. I mean, last week we saw it against Tampa Bay. They gave up return after return where I think Tampa Bay starting average starting line was like on a thirty five or the forty. So I don't know if we need to take some of those you know, starters off of that kickoff because you know, those guys
were on there. Lve. But those guys were on there, and we get some hungry special teamers on there, but we got to have a better kickoff unit because we can't have you know, justin Herbert lining up at the forty to start, you know, each and every each and every possession. I mean, that's just gonna put our defense into Listen if you see it too. On those plays,
I don't know they were doing sky kicks. I don't know what type of kicks they were doing, but he was not time to trying to intentionally kick it through the end zone. So I think they were trying to figure out a way to get them inside the twenty five and you know, take five yards away from Tom Brady.
I think that experiment is over and hopefully it's just kicking through the endzone as much as you can, especially being in that stadium, you should be able to kick those things through the end zone for touchbacks, all right, brit Johnson, give me a good restaurant near downtown or by Elsa Gundo Verdando Beachel those area. Downtown there is a soul food restaurant and it is so good I can't even think of the name. Of it right now. Um,
I can't think of the name of it. There's also this other place though, right by actually where the stadium is, and it's called Stuff I Eat. It is black owned. It is actually, um, I don't even want to tell you that it's vegan, but it's vegan. But the food there is so good. It's very popular. It's probably one of the most popular places to go to in Inglewood, and you can honestly walk there from the stadium. It's really close. So I got a question for you. Now,
it's California girl, Yes, bad Tacos or California. I was told I was going to get in trouble if I said California being in Texas. I I'm going to plead the fifth on this one. That's cool. Just don't start talking about barbecue. We are, right, tacos, you're vegan, right, yeah? So one plant base I dairy sometimes yeah, okay, I don't know that. Yeah, okay. So I'm like, most people aren't gonna like the places I like to eat at.
But Yeazabells is actually in West Hollywood, but it's hands down my favorite restaurant in La If I go out to laugh Factory, I might do it. But I don't think I'm gonna go a laugh factory. I don't like the I'm like the Actually they've got on there this weekend, so so I think I'll pass on that. But we will be hitting roscos as always, so I'm looking for that second spot. So no, I'm going to give you a better soul food place. Wait till we get off air,
and I'm gonna look at Kay. Well, it's taxi to me. You're all good. I'm not there yet. I'll get there tomorrow. So all right, the pis are in. We will be back on Monday to dissect Chargers Cowboys. It's simple. The Cowboys will be over two or they will be one and one. Barry Church, Britt Johnson, Danny mccraige, I'm knew we scrugs.
