I've been outside a lot of drands on you. Mary. You got it worked better than I thought it was. Y'all think, y'all think about getting some of that about two feet overnight married the survivor. He messed up for real. Now wait till the next We'll be back after this. Cowboys win. Cowboys win twenty four, twenty two. I'm just

Go ahead, do your job as head coach. Dak got the bag. Go win the game just like that. That's it, that's it. Go win dog gone game twenty four. Twenty two is not gonna be easy. Styles make fights. The forty nine ers can bring a little bit different style here. Not gonna be easy, but they get it done. You're at home,
Mike mccarthur. You two and oh at home? Make it three and oh. I don't want to hear nothing else. That's what they gotta go do. And if it's not done, if they don't get it done, I'm be hot. It sounds sound like sounds like he counting on his airline two with that score twenty two. I want to I like it. He liked to earn his keep. Ear Hey, at least you sound a little bit more confident than fossible, you know, at a little thirty four yards and something,
some slightest right in this wheelhouse. I don't I don't want to. I don't want to. You want to go first time you got wait you you all can wait till you can wait till the third Stepon just coming out of mine all the way saying with your chest, I didn't have my bluekool aidy or I left her the office, bring it in here. But I would put this on Mike. Mike, this is what you're here to do. Is what you here to do? Man? You put it on Mike, we gonna hold him the twenty four points.
You put it on Dan Quinn. That's why you hear. You know what I'm saying. Who brought Dan in? Man? We I don't know. I know who brought Nolan in. That's whats he messed up. Then he corrected. That's what I listen, And that's what you're supposed to do. And that's what you're supposed to do. Mike Tager was you know, he just he made all and then he got himself right and the hand come got it, he got himself right. I mean, he is a champion, you know he is.
It's a champion. It's a champion. So this is just due. Well, it's been very interesting to see and read how many people are picking against the Cowboys, how many people think this is the road upset to go to go after and while it's a little different and you guys were youngsters back in the day. But when I was privileged enough to cover the Mavericks twenty eleven NBA Championship run their first round upon it was portly all kinds of people left the right. That's the matchup, that's the upset.
It's gonna happen. Mavericks heard it, came out beating the first two games, went up there, Game three, big League blew it, and came back one game four, one game five, moved on there. So I just this just reminds me a lot of that where people are picking an upset, like, hey, go right there. Styles make fights. That's the style we think will get them, and the other team heard it. You guys are players. How many folks are coming to you saying they think you're gonna get beat? I mean,
it happens all the time. It happens all the time, and it's just how you're going to react to it as a player. I mean, because you sit there and say, all right, well, it's forty nine teams. They the strengths or the Cowboys weakness. So they can run the ball extremely well, and the Cowboys they're kind of shaky. They're not the best run defense in the National Football League. So I can understand why teams are out there saying,
you know, this just could beat the upset. This could be what we see I mean, and what we've seen from the Cowboys these past what nine games. It's been up and down relatively, I mean, it's not been a steady stream of just awesome offense and awesome defense. It's been up and down. So I can see where team or guys are picking the forty nine ers over the
Cowboys in this situation. But we gotta remember, man, this Cowboys team, when they can hit on all cylinders, when they're rolling and they're healthy, this team is extremely dangerous. We've seen it in the early part of the season. Now that was when they had all their chips in there. Everybody was healthy, everybody was rolling, The offense looked great, the defense was coming along. This team can be extremely dangerous. And I see that same type of formula working as
we go towards this playoffs. They're getting all their guys back. The defense has been on a steady climb these past couple of games. The offense has been on a roller coaster ride. But this last game, even though it was against second and third stringers, even though it was against second and third stringers, they did what they were supposed to do and they went out there they dominated a
lesser opponent. And I feel like if you take that same type of mentality, if this Cowboys team can take that same type of dominating mentality or confidence into the playoffs, I think they could play with anybody and they could beat anybody. So it's gonna be a tough game. It's gonna be a tough game. But I can see why people pick the forty nine. You know, there's a lot of you you know, when we're hitting on all cylinds.
The thing that makes me nervous about the game is that we haven't really seen that game against top level competition. Like I said, Atlanta was that type of win. Atlanta was not top level competition. And then you play a game against the football team who's missing a lot of players where it seems as if we're rolling on all cylinders, clicking on all cylinders, but it's not top competition. We are going to play a game this week against the offense who can challenge us in a lot of different ways.
Secondary not so much. Or I think we can we can attack their secondary offensively if we are clicking. What we've seen over the last few weeks is sometimes when you get against mediocre type of competition that we're still not able to move the ball as we did in Week one against Tampa. So this is why I'm leaning it on the defense, because I don't even want to put it out there to say that the offense has to score thirty plus in order for us to win.
But what I do believe is that if the defense is able to step up and control the game, the offense is going to be able to make big plays in those big moments and put up those points. So, Nui, I'm not gonna spoil it for myself, but my score is very very similar to yours. I don't see a thirty plus type game going on. I think this is going to be a game where both defenses are are making big plays and the offense really just has to
make one or two in order for us get to do. So, what do y'all think is the most important factor as far as you know, controlling this game? Do you think we need to own the time of possession? Do you think we need to be you know, so so offensively? We need to own the time of possession and defensively, we gotta gotta get him off the field, and so we got to be good on third I think we need to. I think I think we're gonna do that, but I think it's gonna take us getting a turnover.
I think we have to put Jimmy Garoppolo in a position where he has to throw when we have to execute and make that big play when it counts and get a turn off. Are you gonna have to cause a fumble? I think the team us when our defense plays that way. I think everybody feeds off that. Special teams feeds off that. Dak feeds off that when you give him the ball in their own territory thirty thirty five, because you've got a big turnover, that's when you see us able to put up those points and then it
starts rolling. So I think the defense is going to be the X factor in this game with their ability to be able to make plays. Traylon Dix all prove eleven interceptions. You got d Law out there with he's mastering the punch out. You got Michael Parson's being able to do things coming off the edge and cause fumbles. I think we're going to need one of those in
order to get offense started. I am Mike McCarthy, If I'm Dak Prescott, if I'm Joe Philbin, I go find time smith Lell Collins real quick, a man, you see what Bolt had said about you, right, but nov on the locker. There's tape on them getting beat and we're trying to do the same. Basically, he just called out him, and man, they okay, they're nice, they've been missing time. But you meet him. Riden watched it, and I'm about
to do it. Yes, yes, give me that, Give me give me that Bill Park because see that's the kind of stuff Parcels lived on. Oh yeah, you're a little Turnstyle seventy seven, you all decade Turnstyle just saying and he gonna walk away. He's gonna make you just sit there and eat that Oh l C l CE Joey Boss about to eat your lunch. I think he go he gonna come down with him a little. What's the thing that chat with some more? Here goes suposed to go. He bring this right, he gonna eat on you all
day long. So yeah, man, yeah, this man just came out and assaulted you. See that's his older brother. Hyping him up, man, because you see what happened earlier when they went to LA and the older brother ain't sniffed the quarterback. He's like, you know what, hey, you need to go out there and do work. So that's his older brother. I'm not and the thing and the I'm not even worried about the office of line. Honestly, I'm
not worried about them being able to hold up. I think healthy Tyrant Smith, healthy Leo, and Leo looks like he's been had been playing better over the last few weeks. You being able to see him get involved in the ring game. He's out there and leading to come boy, and I think that's when he gets that momentum and that confidence in himself and he starts to play a little better. I think those two guys rolling into this game,
I think they're gonna be absolutely fine. It's the play calling and the ability for us to say, hey, this is what they do, well, this is what they want to do. Let's move the line of scrimmage and get Zeke involved early so we can start to show this team that this is what we're gonna do. We're gonna outman you and punish you. Throughout this entire game. I
think that is a perfect way to start this. But if we don't, and we had these dudes past setting for forty fifty times, then you might give mister Bosa, you know, a chance to really get out there, like you said, take some lunches. I'm not worried about like I ain't worried about the two outside pieces, like I ain't worried about you know, Smith as long as he can hold up. If he can hold up, I think he can hold his own. And then Collins, I mean, I think he's he's a he's a he's a good
tackle as well, So I'm not worried about. To me, it's the inside minus minus Zach Marks. So you're really just talking about BEI honest, and you're talking about Williams in there now. If it gets to a point where, because if I'm the forty nine ers and I'm a defensive cord, I'm sitting there looking, I'm like, hold on, let's move this thing around a little bit. Let's do Bosa how they how the Cowboys do d law. Let's put them on one of the weakest links and let
him do work that way. To me, that's the only way I can be slightly nervous about this pass us. But if they leave him on the outside, I think our two tackles can neutralize them and it'll be a done deal. But if they move them inside, it could be a problem. You know how you can stop that run the ball? Because Mica said it itself. You have to earn the right to rush the past, and its
back to Marionelly. Micah said it themselves. We have to do what we need to do on first and second down in order for us to be able to pin our ears back and put that type of pressure on Garoppolo. Same thing for us. We have to make them earn the right to let Joey Bosa try to come around the edge on one of our tackles are line up on the inside. We can negate that by saying, listen, if we run it on first and get three or four,
then you find a way to get another three. Those third and short situations are way different than a third and ten and a third and eight. Like it's it's the play sheet changes just based off that three or four yours. That's the only thing is are we gonna do it? Are we gonna run the football? That's I mean, it's nerve racking, it's nerve. I wouldn't bet on it, you know, And that's that's the thing I mean I would I would not place. I wouldn't place twenty five
all a bit on that. I wouldn't even give up my twenty five to not even have just a couple of temps. If it said, if it said if the number was twenty, if it was twenty five attempts, I would say, under okay, just based off the history of this season. Yeah, let's take a break. When we come back, let's unveil the first and second I should say, the first team All Pro Offense and first team All Pro Defense.

This is the Players launch spot by Hotels dot com all right, All Pro first
team Defense and offensive. Out gentlemen, which one do you want to hear first? You gotta go offense? Right? Okay? Sure? All right? By the way, up, they have special teams. No Cowboys are on it, so we c Jacob, but he missed a couple of games. Hey, if he stays healthy, man next year. It's hard to get on that man when you just get one name. Thank Slater. By the way, JT. Gray got that spot. Shout out to jam and the Luke Rhodes from Indianapolis is the long snapper, so that
just great. Your your first team kicker is mister Tucker's a given Hall of Famer right there, Longhorn right, First team All Pro offense, the quarterback, Dara Rodgers, MVP. Running back Jonathan Taylor, White receiver, Cooper Cup wide receiver debound to Adams wide receiver d Bo Samuel, Yeah yeah, tight end Mark Andrews, left tackle, Trent Williams, left guard, Joel Beatonio, center Jason Kelsey, right guard Zach Martin. Okay, right tackle
Tristan Works. That is your first team All Pro offense. Curs. You know, I definitely thought I was gonna hear one of the LSU guys in Jefferson or Chase. But that is that is a hell of a list. Yeah, that's that's that's that's that's a hell of a list. But if you put one them in there, I wouldn't argue what it second, just just based off the seasons that
they've had. First Team All Pro Defense, All Pro Edge t J. Watt got it twenty two and a half doesn't fit the con whiskey though, Um shout out many Eliot Edge, Arlington's Dome, Miles Garrett okay Um inside defensive lineman, Aaron Donald, inside defensive lineman Cameron Hayward. Linebackers Devon Treg Campbell, Green Green Bay. They snubbed him on the Pro Bowl. He've been bawling though, Yeah, tell you about the Pro Bowl. Yeah, you know that's a fan as a conquest Deis Leonard
Hayter love the Coats. Linebacker Michael Parsons, First Team All Defense, All Pro linebacker, linebacker, Okay, cornerbacks, two of them. Jalen Ramsey, your former teammate. I would say as much deserve. I say, Traybond Dicks, he's in there. We get eleven. You gotta be question. You gotta be at the safeties Kevin Byrd and Jordan Poyer. So that is your first team defense to the Cowboys with three players on the first team
All Pro that is two old defense. Yeah. And how about the shout out to Will McClay drafted by the Cowboys too, all three players, all three players drafted by the Cowboy Guy don't miss. He believes in and stuff, man, I got don't miss. So m Zack Martin All decade player, Traybon Diggs go get a second contract. Yeah, I would say that, I would say something. He been the ball out in the right year. I know that like as of right now, absolutely getting paid. We've seen some people
squander having plenty of times. But yeah, yeah, the dudes, he wasn't playing outstanding. But for him to to be continued to be at the top, he's gonna have to continue to get those type of numbers of interceptions or hen have to give up LESSU yards one of them, like one of the one. You gotta give him one of them. Would you got in that situation real quick? Would you rather have like a gambling type of corner that can he can get your leave pick in a year?
He could take away the ball like nobody else, or would you rather have the Ramsey types. That's like, you know, they're only giving up three hundred yards four hundred yards off season, but they might only get two two picks. That's the crazy part because like once you get to the playoffs, it really depends on who the quarterback is. Like, I don't want the gambler guy gets Aaron Rodgers, Like I don't want you gambling out there against like a Tom Brady, right, but yeah, like a Jimmy g yeah,
yeah gets you. Yeah. I'm like, I'm accepted the fact that yes, okay you might, you might beat me, but then Jimmy g gotta get it there, all right. But Aaron Rodgers, he capt you gambler, You're gonna pay for it. So I think it just depends on you know what, which is which is tough? Right? So no, it's a gifting the curse man, it is. But I digs in a couple of years could be like Ramsey wear and
you know, because you play with it. Hey, we're just not gonna go over there, you know, I mean I would I would imagine next year, Taylor Honeke's not gonna take the first pass the game and go. Did you know after a love picks, they're gonna just say, ah, we who's who's over there? Brown? Okay? So and that's what because I remember Jalen's last year at Florida State and the big knock against it all, get a lot
of picks. And my guy Michael Felder, who does a great job still covers called football over there stadium, He's like, hey man, I love Ramsey. They don't want any of that guy. He's like, he's a he's a fantastic corner, been on national championship teams like he is. He's the truth. And of course Felder was right, and I think Digs
is gonna end up being the same thing. You know, guys are gonna look at it next year and then but give me the picks right now, give me the picks because they I mean, we've seen his picks have been so crucial for the Cowboys, being a pick six or puts it up the gifts and the other teams part of the fields and the Cowboys are converted for I mean, he's just been such a gosh, he's been so good. Yeah, he's been ball hockey. He has been real. Now the perfect picture of your gift and curses that
New England game. Though, yes, the ideal bit of like the curse and if Kay and if Kazy does his job, that's true to that that guy man, you know, even talking about the man angle stand eighteen safety once, I would say this, though, I enjoy the fact that tray vun Dix has that type of confidence like it's not many Like many people can say they have that type of conference to go out there and play against anybody and take those type of chances, but not everybody really
has that type of those ball skills and the confidence say all right, I gotta beat this time, but I'm gonnanna get me a pick. Anyways, we're gonna make this even Coach, when you see a guy go tamped the coach on a coach, I got you, my bad. I'm gonna take care of that. I'm gonna get another one. It didn't go out there and get it. That's that's that's hell of a confidence. I haven't seen that twenty five years around here, so so tremendous congrats again to
all three guys. Parsons, digs Martin first team All Pro NFL released rookie of the year ballot that fans can vote on. Here are your choices. Jamar Chase Bengals wide receiver, Nazi Harris, Steelers running back Mac Jones, Patriots quarterback Michael Parsons, Cowboys linebacker Kyle Pitts tied end of the Falcons, and Jalen Waddle of the Miami Dolphins. They don't separate it on where I thought they used to set. This is just the battle the NFL PEPSI Rookie of the Year
which fans get to vote on. So tells me to refresh it. Already voted once. So Michael Parsons and Jams only two. I'm thinking, like, man, that'd be a battle. Nazi Harris has had a good year, but it's been it's been quiet. Yeah yeah, but it's gotten them ball.
But Jamar Chason, Michael Parsons, that is they both carried their teams to the you know, wasn't they had a little bit more help, but still they breaking records like these have been two outstanding rookies to where man, if I was I was voting for her, I would have a hard time putting that in. And I'm an LSU guy. But Michael Parsons has been doing stuff that's unreal. And what's crazy is neither of these two played last year right like or the year before going into the both
side out. Yeah, baby, that's the man, and you don't get you. They don't love football, that's what looks like they love it. To me, a football loves them. They're not making all Kirkirkstreet teams fall um so Chase's team in the playoffs, not Harris team in the playoffs, Mac Jones team in the playoffs, Michael Parson's team in the playoffs, Kyle Pitts Falcons no, Jalen Wattle no. And and that poor guy who knows will be calling the offense for them next year. They bringing a new coach and a
new coordinator, so I hate to see it. Good luck to him. By the way, David Culley got fired by your Houston Texas and one and done. My Houston Texas listen, and their only remains one one one black coach in the Thai League and it's not my squad. I am see why I'm at in the s WBC studios at the Star where the Cowboys headquarters are. All right, I'm from Houston. I was never a Texas fan. I actually went over to New England once we lost the Oilers.
I was a New England, New England fan, and then when I got to play for the Cowboys, I became a Dallas Cowboys fan. So no, never, there was never. I don't even think I've been to a Texas game. I went to Texas workout because because they thought that they said it was gonna pick me up, but didn't. That didn't work out. But no, not a Houston Texas fan. So shout out the union. I'm sure you got a Texans shirt somewhere or hat. It sounds. Man, he set up a failure. Many he was set up with the
old regime. And what they did, man, they took away his two best players left there with a third round rookie quarterback. Yeah, I mean four, I mean yeah. That's that's tough. That's like me, I'm gonna throw you a Calculus test right now. You throw it out there, you know what I'm saying. If you feel you done, that's it.
I've heard different reports, one saying that he only had a two year deal, so he's only gonna get paid one one year, and then I heard Tom Palaicero saying no, he had multiple years left and we'll probably walk away with seventeen million dollars. So I am hoping that David Culley in his sixties gets to walk away with a seventeen million dollars bag head on into retirement. And if that's the case, good for him. I never thought he was going to finish the contract. And you guys know
how this works. When you started here towards the end, he could be one and done. Then you knew he's one and done, because that's just how that thing works. So it's it's an embarrassment. Just when you think the giants or a clown show, Houston says, hold my beer, we're gonna be even bigger clowns. So good for Cully to get his bag and move on away from that, and so they can hire the next person from New
England and let them come in here and go do it. Um. I was doing an interview today with with NBC Sports Edge Tom Kerran, who who does an excellent job covering the team. He thinks Gerard Mayo could be the guy, and he said, Josh McDaniels wants no parts of it. Josh go down, and they said they'll hate me, so so he wanted no parts of But he thinks that Gerard Mayok almost call his first opportunity to right his first kid, because an opportunity he never he never been
a coordinator. I mean, when you start to just think about how they even hired him, he'd never been a coordinator before. He's as a passing game, he was a wide receiver coach, and you know, you just you just gave a guy to job and and literally they gave the guy the job because he was gonna let them do what they wanted to do. You read about how Nick Cassario, GM and Romeo Crannell were on the headsets
telling him what to do during games. But well, as you going to that sounds like he didn't have a chance. But then I'm thinking about like everything that the team was going through at that time. So you you lose Deshaun Watson, you get there, you don't have them. You gotta worry about everything that's going on with that. So then you assume Tyrod Taylor's gonna be a guy, and then he plays one game and I think he missed
like the next six where like a hamstring crazy. So you literally don't have anything the previous guy traded away DeAndre Hopkins for David Johnson, who was who was not the David Johnson that he was when he was in Arizona. So so now you really you don't have that like it was. It was no shot, no shot, you're set up,
no shot, You're set up to fail. But if he getting seventeen million dollars, at least it was a movie back in the day, probably not even alone ago, where like somebody gets elected mayor, like a kid or something who has no idea what the job is. He ends up getting elected mayor, has no idea what's going on. I feel like that that's what happened to It wasn't
gonna They needed a placeholder. So it looks like all together I think it would be I read somewhere twenty I think Clint Stroner tweeted it out former Cowboys, who's a radio hostown He's like, twenty two million dollars for one year work. I don't take it, okay, tax taking a Yeah, it was real, man, And with that I fund David Cully. I don't call him. I'll never be another assistant mane. But that see, but that's the thing though,
like that's that's how we feel. But you know how these coaches are though, right, they love being around the game. Like so for us it's like, yeah, I got twenty two, but maybe for him it's like, man, I had my shot and it didn't go well, but I actually love being around the game. So I wouldn't be surprised if you see him being whatever, passing, in coordinated wherever he was again, just because that's what he loves to do. Like, yeah, I got twenty two million dollars, but what am I
going to do now? Like I've been been around football my entire life, Like this is what I love to do. What a great what a great option to have. Yeah, what a fantastic option to have for David Culley. But uh, and may do you take the Houston job? Yes, I don't know. I don't I don't take Here's why I'm not touching it. Dany gm who by the way, Sarah used to be a coach in New England before he begin in front off Sky. But it wants to be
in bolved. He wants to pick the players. Okay, so he's gonna pick the roster and who's out there, and then he gonna be on the Headshad during the game, trying to tell you what to do. You you're gonna take a job and have him in easterby Jackie, We're gonna have these guys you kind of run it. They want to hire a puppet. I wouldn't touch that job if I'm him, but I'd rather I'd rather stay in New England with Bill because we've seen man Jeannie, Charlie Wise,
Romeo Crenell, Brian Flores, Patricia McDaniels. You might as well just stay and wait on a job you really want before you go down there and get controlled by those dudes. There's only one. There's only one right now as a black head coach. Yes, the opportunities are few and far between. But there was a great podcast um The Huddling Flow, that Jim Trotter and Steve Wish of NFL Network did
last year. They were talking to Todd Bulls and Todd spoke about his experience with the Jets, and he basically said, had I known I'd go there and would have so little saying things and get all this blame, I would have been better off staying where I was. Because now that you've taken the job and we all know Todd's dang good coordinator and just want super Bowl. You get you get saddled with what these other jabrones were doing behind you. And Mike mccackney was a terrible gim Okay,
you haven't even there. You're about a name nobody's even thrown about about having another job. He was so bad it was like terrible. But it got all got saddled on Todd. And then people don't know like, hey man, I didn't get to pick him my coordinator. Hey man, I didn't get to pick them fifty three. Mean this guy was out here doing it. I mean, and then you are here passing on good quarterbacks. Talk about you going, well,
we're gonna see what Bryce Petty has. And then and the dude from Penn State they took who Bill O'Brien had, a Penn State that Christian christian um Christian hackingbird got couldn't play team I couldn't play a lick. I mean this, this, this is what you had, Tod. Good luck time we got Geno certainly got these guys that can't play. He's
a terrible boy coach, you know. Good. So that's why I say, if you drive, man, I mean you put like this, I'd have a conversation with a guy like Todd Bowls because there they are going to hire you, and then they are going to make all the decisions around you, and you're gonna get stuck with a win
loss rending. Yeah, I mean, I'm just doing from my perspective, I would consider taking that job just because I, like you said, they few and for them between and all of a sudden you wait, you wait, and then you continue waiting, and then you continue waiting, and then all of a sudden you stuck where you at. I think that I think there's an opportunity you should consider it.
Hugh Jackson. Okay, a boy Didnis Thurman because Hugh Jackson got the job and they used to coach together USC and and he was like, hey, man, I want you to come. He said, Man, don't take that job and clean you. Man, it's only thirty two. He said, don't take a job. Then he try to hire Then he tried to hire him again after he was there. Yeah, man, I ain't working for great Williams him and shut up.

vote Dack Danny mccraig, Berry Church. This is the players lie part to you buy Hotels dot com. I've already made my prediction. The Cowboys win the game against the San Francisco forty nine. It's a wild card game, by the way, my player, the game is going to be Treyvon Diggs, roll tide, roll soon what you got? Because I got a feeling that Church is gonna be crazy,
especially when he ended the show yesterday. Y'all say, I say crazy, And when I say lad that when Arizona was crazy before that game talking about giving that giving away Dad to get in. That's like end of the show yesterday. So this is what I'm saying. Okay, this is what I'm going to say, all right, twenty eight twenty five Dallas Cowboys win. Why we? Like I said, if our defense can hold teams to twenty four to twenty five points, we should be able to win the game.
And I think we are going to allow just that much. But you know what's gonna help us get to that twenty eight a turnover by our defense. I think that our defense, our special teams, one of them is going to make a play to turn the game for us, and that is what's gonna put us over the top. For that, I'm not depending on my man's our line to go out there. Man, no field goals. It's gonna be full touchdowns. He's gonna be four for four for PA team, and that's how we're gonna get the double. Man.
I'm I'm right on the ledge on this one, man, because it's I want to say the Boys, but then there's so much where I'm like, Man, I can see I can see this happen. I can see Jimmy just having one of them games. Man, you're not about to do this. No, this isn't You're not about to do what knew we tried to do. I want to pick one team, but I'm gonna pick the other side. When you coming here on Monday and you was right again, I'm gonna go ahead and put it out there. I'm
gonna go with the Cowboys. Man, I'm gonna go I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say they pulled this one off. It's gonna be tight, it's gonna be real tight. And I'm gonna say it comes down to Greg the Leg and I'm gonna say he's gonna have missed one earlier in the game, but he's gonna come back in the fourth and he's gonna nail it. I got the Cowboys winning this game twenty seven, twenty four, and it's gonna come down to gregor Leg. I think the defense is I think the defense is gonna do a good job.
But I think Jimmy G's gonna have that offense rolling in the right direction. We might get a pick from Dicks, we might get a force from from from d Law. That's gonna definitely helped us out. But I think that forty Niners team is gonna run the football well. So it's gonna come down to the nut cutting time. And like I said, I'm surprised, but I think Gregor leg go nail it. Man. So am I hearing like he at least is gonna be like two three four field goal? Yeah, yeah,
he gonna be. He's gonna miss one early. Everybodys gonna get on him. Man, what why? Why? Why? End? So he's gonna make one in the middle and then the end he at least sixty's that's gonna get the grees. So just just listening to you, he's gonna fail throughout the Game's gonna come down the field needing to like sending like the charge of game and just kick it at d and win. They're gonna have to win it. I ain't say it's gonna be terrible the WHO game.
I say he's gonna miss one early. You're gonna make one in the middle, and that it's gonna come down to the to that fourth quarter. I said, we're gonna need it about a forty five yards like charge again, it's gonna be one of them. Now, I ain't gonna be just straight down the pipe either. That ain't gonna be wavering, and it's gonna sneak right in and we're gonna sneak to the second round. Man, and my player of the game this week, it's gonna be Dak Prescott
because I don't believe you're gonna run the ball. I believe we're gonna put it in the Dack's hands and I think he's gonna happen. And you think we're gonna still win the game that way, I do. I do because I believe that our defense is gonna keep us in the game. I think we're playing against the Jimmy G team to where as long as we're able to control the run, I'm not worried about Jimmy G. So we we focus all our pieces on being able to to to set the edges, move the line of scrimmage back,
and stop the run. I think we're okay, and I think we hold him to just enough points for Dad to be able to score more than than San Francisco, and I'm gonna go to Mark Cooper, man, I think I'm gonna I think he's coming into this game. He's a little frustrated. You want a bet, Ain't that confident Cooper gonna come into this game? I think they're gonna feed him early and offen if we can, if this offensive line can hold that, you know, Nick Bolsha in
that defensive line back for a little bit. I think Dak finds Cooper out there. We know they can take advantage of that secondary. That secondary ain't it ain't up to part, but they D line is strong. So if we can take care of that D line, I think Mark Cooper eats on the outside and that MP so give me so catch range yard ring. I'm saying he goes from eight for eight for one fifteen and it's a who you had on that. I got that back. I'm saying that QBR being somewhere around the seventy seventy good.
He had three touss, no picks, no picks, three three touchdowns, no picks, defense scores or special team scores. That's that's what I got. Score. Yeah, listen, whoever it is, we know that there are multiple guys on our defense who can score touchdown de Law who can catch up pick six, uh, Anthony Brown. We got Geordan Lewis, we got trade Monday. We have guys who can get out there and make playces.
I'm not sure it's gonna be a phoneball interception, but we are going to make something happen because we've done it in every game. You know, the Arizona game got us. We did it, but you know, the referees and they didn't see it the same way we saw that. We didn't have any time out and my confidence in my score, man, it's about a sixty percent. Don't go there, bro, you got you got a chance right now before we get off the show to change your score. Man, I'm anna stick. Man,
you got five minutes. I'm stick because come back to me inviting minutes. Okay, come out of the man. Let me think about Okay, listen, but listen why we're at it though? Why oynna say? Because I want to? Can we pick some off? That's fun? I'm going to right now Saturday, Saturday, Vegas, Cincinnati. You ain't asking me, Yeah, you're asking me. We're going around the room. This is amazing you Cincinnati, and it's gonna be something like thirty
one twenty one. You know what I'm says, Yeah, absolute Cincinnati, Jamar Chase, Joe Burrow, t Higas, Joe Mixing, go off and I'm gonna go with the fighting. Besides you, I'm gonna go with Vegas out there. They don't want the last four games, but I think under or less than four points each game, so they know how to win close games. I got that momentum on their side. They didn't sit out last week, you know, Burrow Chase them boys, they sat out, So I don't know how that's gonna go.
That's gonna go for them because they've never been in this situation before. She's going about the whole year New England and Buffalo, you were Vegas. Okay, it's Grace. I'm going, well, my man, Bill Belichick, what I'm going It's won to one. Okay, Bill Belichick's gonna be freezing out there. It's gonna be cold, is all. I'm one with Bill Belichick. Low scoring game twenty one seventeen. I'm going with the Bills all day.
I mean, we said I think they got lucky when they when they went against uh when they went against Josh how In that first time and only threw the ball three times. Still one the weapon trade and Buffalo. I know it's gonna be cold, but nah, I think Josh Howling puts everybody on notice this game, and he puts it on Bill. I'm saying, he goes thirty one. I'm saying thirty one, fourteen, twenty one, seventeen. You got um. I'm trying to remember what I had in the morning
news here I went Buffalo on that. I'm almost positive I was trying to look it up right here. Cole. Basically, Okay, I got I got a chance to, like really get up on y'all. Got a chance chance. Philadelphia Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay. My man terrific to him, goes out there, it's gonna be something like thirty five twenty one. I thought you, I thought Philly was had you nervous a little bit, dude. I think they're gonna be able to run the ball. I think the score is not
gonna show how close the game actually was. I think they're gonna run the ball against Ampa Bay. But I think at the end of the day, Rob Gronkowski and Tom Brady are gonna make the plays to put them over the top. Yeah. If this was in Philly, I think it'd be a little bit more close. But this one wasn't. Tampa Bay, Tom Brady, this playoff time, this is the goat right now. So I gotta go with Tampa Bay over the Eagles twenty seven to ten and playoff.
Lenny's back, who years back? Okay, Pittsburgh, Kansas City, you're picking up sick because I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City. Easy. I know that Pittsburgh cannot tho once offensively, all right, So I'm going thirty one seventeen. I'm going for the miracle. Man. I'm going Pittsburgh in this one. I mean it was a miracle they got into the into the playoffs to begin with. You know you heard Ben already down playing, Hey, we're just going out there just they have zero, zero
pressure on them. Nobody in they Mama thinks that they're gonna win this game. So you know what, I'm gonna go for the upset. I got Pittsburgh winning this game twenty eight twenty four. Jay, So Pittsburgh, but ain't got no pressure. They're gonna be slaying that thing. Kansas City, give me forty one and ten. Oh, don't respect out. They can pull him early out there in the third quarter, going take a seat. Ain't going out like I refused
to believe. Monday Night, Monday Night. This is the game man, Arizona eleven and six against the twelve and five Rams. It's the Rams house. Rams played the forty nine ers last game, said they couldn't hear at home. But but I'm still going with with the La Rams. I think this Cooper Cup thing is crazy. I'm rooting for Odell and them to get a DUB. I want him to be on a playoff team that is winning. So I
think the Rams gonna get it together. Matthew Steffords still got the pick, but the Rams gonna close us some now thirty one twenty eight. I mean Stafford ain't never won a playoff game. I mean we played against him down here in Dallas, and you know we're gonna luck you on that one. But it ain't win one. Never won one playoff game. So this's tough. This what's up. But it's in La. It's in LA, and it seems like Aaron Donald has the Arizona Cardinals number. I mean
he he rex havoc every single time they play. So give me the rams, give me the rounds. Thirty one twenty eight? Did he just steal my score? But did you say thirty one twenty eight? Looks like we got the same school. That's it. Hey, go first next week because we will be here next week because we all picked the Cowboys. Arizona twenty nine, twenty eight. Yeah, I'm sticking with the boys, man, I'm gonna stick with them. Arizona twenty nine, twenty twenty twenty eight, Arizone Colin Murray.
