Player's Lounge: Well Earned, Rest & Relation

what in order? Many? You know Danger, Russ Many Rust Rust, He's Ruggs. Your guy, he's ruggling. I had to cut Russ off my fantasy team. I couldn't know as he on the waiver wires right now. I cut Russ like weeks ago. Hey, I am not doing this, but but it's hilarious for me. It's actually hilarious having Chris Beam.

You were up there too, but producer Chris Beam. But we were up there in August when it's Cowboys and Denver working out bro the Broncos were talking cash stuff, okay stuff, And every time I watched it, give me like he'sn't the same guys. It was all that jazz like they were back in August. It's a trip, man, It is a trip to see how bad they're gonna fire that coach. Oh yeah, they got he gonna catch the strap. Russell Wilson's and dire Stry was called him

one hundred two million dollars. By the way on the cap hit for Nick Show, how much one hundred and two million dollars? He will be the quarter he'll be on the team. Hate to see ye to see it? Mean? Why anybody don't ever want to hear anybody talking about it? Dak CRUs Scott worth forty million. It's Russell Wilson worth his money. Just go with it. You go right over there. We got weapons too, he just ain't doing it. A lot of weapons here cowboys. Uh, great, glorious ten days

and they got to have it. We talked about it here on the players. I was hecking Harrison Barry Church on the restruct of what winning that game would be. So so, Barry, what is it like when you get the dub like that and you've got this time off? It's an amazing feeling. Like you said, you had ten days half Now you get to relax, you went home. Those cousins do was gonna give you problems for if

y'all lost the game. They're not saying much. They want to just get on the Xbox and play, which everybody's hyping you up. And especially if you was part of that defense, If you was part of that defense making plays out there, your weekend was amazing. Get the kick back where last watch some Sunday football, Watch some Saturday football. The team went out there and dominated, So I know this break for them was amazing. Now it's time to get back on the ground and get back to work.

But that was a heck of a break for them. Ain't it funny When we get our dubs, it gets real quiet round town. Man, Okay, it gets tough. Okay, all your favorite critics, all your favorite haters, they get a little quieter. And you know, New York Giants give them. You're giving their problems, giving their credit even from the vikings on down. There's two game winning strip that we own. And if you look over the next games, dog, you

got a chance to make way. I'm not gonna count nobody Outcols any given Sunday, and you're going to your cloth for that ant. I love it when you do that. It's making appearance sometime this week. I know it's kind of yeah, it's coming, it's coming. But the thing about it is NEWI that hate us shut up. They look no, no, no, they have Sister Green Bay Packers, the Boggle and Lambo.

It's been a lot of hush mouth and hushmouth. Done showed up with a dog half and a black and mole in his mouth, the black and Yeah, but it's a lot of choiet folks with hushmuth show up, you know what. The waiting Yeah, yeah, it'll always be there, It'll always be there. But there you know, the stephen Ads of the world sitting there waiting. Hell fan that they're just waiting. But this is it was a needed win and we were all on point here. So heck, you had it as a thirty five ten game. See

you had it as a twenty seven seventeen. I had its thirty one thirteen. They got the garbage such down at the end to make it look closer than it was. With the competitive football phase there, we saw that once the Cowboys got it figured out, it was no contest at all here. So this is a major to me This is a major win. You swept a team in the division. You own the tiebreaker. So you handled your bi You put them where they were supposed to be put like, yeah, we're better than you. Get over there,

get over here where you go. So so now it's Sunday Night football coming up at Jerry World against the Indianapolis Colt fighting Saturdays. You I'm assuming Matt Ryan will be back there. And if if Matt Ryan is back there, that's a good thing. Mattie Ice is washed. I'm sorry, Mattie Ice is washed. And the defensive coordinator knows everything that Mattie Ice loves and loves to do and not love to do. So spot stopping the run. Stop the run.

They got a beast back there. Now their old line is not that good, but yes, stop stop the run, and you know, get to nine wins. That's how I'm just looking. Just check the with the next spot got this Colt. It's at home. You play well. Their Sunday night football record is a good record. Here, handle your business. Get to nine wins. Just keep on. As quote Jason Garrett, stack wins and you gotta do it. You gotta stack win on top of win. You know, you was talking

about it earlier last week. Heck about, we got to verify that Vikings win. We got to verify that one. And they did. They went out there and they handled their business. And to me, I just keep looking at that front seven, man, A defensive front seven for the Cowboys led by your boy the Bazook of a big briefcase. When they go out there, Man, that that unit is special. Like I thought we had a special unit in Jacksonville, Saxonville.

I thought we had a special unit. But this one here with the Cowboys, it's something different because they throw a wave after wave after wave of pass rush at you. And there's not that much drop off When you talk about production from you know d Law and Parsons all the way down there, you know Armstrong and Dante Foul. There's not much drop off out there for those guys. So the way they're able to flow and get after

quarterbacks is outstanding. Once you get below a certain point, what you're trailing them, you know, ten points, fourteen points, it's pretty much a rap. It's pretty much a rap out there. Man. But kudos to this defense, Kudos to the offense. They did a heck of a job. As well. But man, this right now, I can't really see, you know, an NFC team regardless of the NFCS. I'm talking about NFC as a total that can match up with these

boys right now. Man, oh, oh, you're not already you know, already to tell about I'm like that, I don't, I don't know. I can't find the forty nine is defense is it's right there. And I'm telling you the forty nine is as a team right there. They're peeking at the right time. And that's one of the things that I start to worry about BC. Are you peeking too quickly? You know? And we want to save some of this going down the stretch because we need to be strong

and we're gonna be tested. The Tennessee Titans are gonna test. There's some there's some teams in the AFC right now that even with the Commanders, if you're watching Commanders football, hey, they it's it's peeking at the right time. They're putting some things together. Even Tampa Bay with the loss, you could tell that there are some things about their team

that they're gonna talk these things too. They're gonna make the adjustments and they're gonna be because the division, it's just so bad, right, Let's keep it real, get a home play on and hey, and it might be us going out to town for the way it looks right now. But when you talk about our defense income and that's why I started weeks ago comparing Saxonville to this defense because of the personnel. The one thing that y'all had was the big boy upfront, Klai's campbell, which was an

immovable object period in life. You know, wherever he is, he heavy, all right. But our defense, as you talk about them coming in ways, to me, it's to key pieces along with Michael Parsons, Tom Clark being one that I'm I don't know if you're starting to notice this and you were calling for him as a linebacker and this play against the run, you're starting to see now dan Quinn can use Michael's just at defensive end. You don't have to move that piece around anymore because how

reliable he started to look as a young linebacker. So, man, I'm so excited about this defense. I'm excited about in the potential of where they can be in the playoffs, but this you know, they still have some things that you don't want to see a letdown these next couple of weeks. I don't want to have one of those games where you come away like, man, we had a fourteen point leading. We you know, take care of your business and it's time to do it right now. Indianapolis, Houston, Jacksonville.

These are the games that are coming up here. They're going to be favored in all these games, yep, and all these games, and so it's it's it's true, just handling your business here. Speaking of Clais Campbell, I met him once at a subway in San Francisco and it was a Super Bowl week. First off, nicest guy in the world, est guy. I mean, he's like when you meet you mean, his uncle man Joe Green, nicest guy in the world. You know, you said, you see him on TV out there, funnish, but the nicest guy in

the world. I couldn't believe the hands on that man. I mean, he didn't have This man has pause as a big man. This man has pause. I mean he made that made that little subway sandwich looked like like like a little snack, right, a little little yeah, a little mini nicest guy And I'm just thinking myself, I'd hate to block this, how do you do you go, you gotta look at him. You gotta if you're the center, you look at the guarden. You know, any help right right?

I mean literally, I don't. I mean, how Arizona let him go? How he even ended up in the second round. I'm my mind boggle. Um, smart guy, nice guy coming out of you. I don't know how this man ended up the second round because he's not a heck of a career, but heck you brought that just made me think about that time. I keep looking up like, yeah,

that's a massive man. It used first thing. I mean, but the defense from for our defense right now when in comparison, and I did drew the comparison up based off of how you guys got after the quarterback and made life a living hell on the back end with you Ramsey, you know that was a secondary again that benefited from having a damn good front in front of them. And we can see right now with the way that Digs is living, Brown is living, that they're benefiting wholeheartedly

from the way that this front saving is playing. Warren Sap used to said, the back don't work without the front, right, Russian covers, that's what they call it. Donny Shell is in the Hall of Fame because you know he had to steal curtain. I mean you get that, Um you mentioned the guy who I'm I've got to keep ranting about this and it's it's it's pettiness on my part. Georg's Armstrong. Who's the comparison all the people, Ah, Randy Greggory,

we got a si Alrandy laughed. All they've screwed up all they don't care a Doorg's Armstrong because they said, we're gonna we're gonna take this money. We're gonna go here with with uh with with Armstrong. Dante Foller, you know we're going to draft, saying Williams, We're going to address this with three football players. Our star has eight tacks. Yeah, I gave you, I gave you credit to on a pre game like my boy knew. His CRUs been saying

it from the beginning. Filer's got five sis, Randy's got two, and I think he's only played four games. So that seventy two million they were about to commit. They think of the savings that the Cowboys have had because Randy Gregory decided he didn't want their money. They tried to sign Dalton Schultz to a multi year contract. He decided he didn't want to do it, so he's playing on the one year du um. You know, yeah, I mean

you see Ferguson out here. Let people put I mean I don't know that dude from the job's his chest, Okay, I mean really, you gotta fly home on Thanksgiving with a hole in this holding sets on the flight home like that may be more careful. So so Jake Ferguson, then you got hinder shot Pat Hendershot, uh Maculan. So so the Cowboys had benefited by some guys saying we

don't want that money. They I mean said, if Randy and Dalton take those deals, you know you don't have four, you don't have Armstrong, you know you may not have jak back there because this is where that money was spent. If I'm Darrance, I take at least two of my saxon give them to Micah. All right, yeah, helldo let me take. It's not gonna happen, but let me say it.

Say it to you like this. We saw them the Minnesota Vikings come out and not get tight inside to Micah, not Chip Micah, and I called it arrogance, all right, but you'll never Michael never see that again. He will never see that again. So every team that he plays against, they're not gonna be negligent of where number eleven is.

They're gonna chip him shift to that side. Okay, um, But Darrance Armstrong and a lot of these guys are benefiting from having to win a one on one matchup because offenses us having to say, we're not gonna let eleven beat us by ourselves. And if you can't beat your one on on one and with this game, look, you play with a guy who I absolutely love him.

But when Anthony Spencer was on the other side of where they should come, almost Anthony because he was all those things, almost got it, just brushed him on the end, always right there. And he would just saying like, man, if you're playing on the other side of where, man, you gotta get it. You gotta get it. And that's the thing. When I look at Armstrong and you look at Okay, you got Parson and go get it. You know that that's what you want to do. And if you're able to play and I go back to your

uncle one more time. All them dudes who got to play next to Joe Green, who got to eat some dudes. He Joe Green was so good. Dude, got to eat get jackets, got gold jackets, Thanks Joe. You know certain people you can't leave alone. You leave Mike alone. You go like Kirk, You go like Kirk Cousin. Man, I mean that if I'm Kirk Cusins, I'm no, I'm gonna signma Cusin somebody. Why why you know you get you at first off the left tackle, not that left tackle

wasn't equipped garden. But you're trying to get me killed first first. I mean right, we're in the first series. You're trying to get me killed. What do we do it? It makes mistakes someone, I'm telling you, man, some of these offensive coaches want to you know, we need to get five guys in a round. You better put three out here and block, and then Kirk's got a shot and you tell one of the three a somebody get open. But you send five out there, man, and you leaving

these blindmen one on one with parts. I mean, that's that's it's arrogance, dude. It's stupid. It's stupid, makes no sense. No, let's chip the guy like you see Tampa Bay what they was doing. Let me chip this guy, let me get after that. Now, you can't just leave that man one on one, the Jazz saying, but Brian Russell, hey go ahead, you got Jordan. No, no, no, no, where's the hell? I look around? Hey, man, where's the hell? Where the hell? Man on the commercial? Now, I want

to be like Mike, is what it is? I'm gonna hut, who's the hell? You put me on old posters and on TV that Hey, what are you doing? I don't I don't get it, man, it's it's it's the amazing thought process of some of these offensive guys. Now, they just want to put all these people in patterns. And just if you've got Mica Parsons over there, unless you have an elite left tackle, and even if you do, you're risking the play. Yeah, you're just risking. It's not

like oil, We're just gonna roll you out. He will keep gonna catch it. Kurt trying to run from Kirt. He come sure. I mean, hey, it doesn't make sense. And if I'm watching this, I'm trying to understand how do they not see it as offensive gurus making millions of dollars that you know if you leave eleven alone, it's gonna be a problem. And it's not like it's a three step you know, we'renna leave them alone. We're

gonna get the ball out quick. They back there, you know, fast step drop let me, Oh he might be open heel, you're run the post route. Yeah, you ain't got time for that. That man is correcting Jeff that these guys don't even get into a break and then Kirk. And that's why I didn't want to go off of that film. I mean, that's that's the sole reason, because something like there's no way in hell they you know, prepared for the Cowboys, and that was the scheme that they came with.

But I really love the way that this team shut down the run. We knew that all they had was sae Quan. I mean, keep it real, you knew that's all they had, and they did a good job other than those last few minutes of the in garbage time that they gave up those those long runs for the Giants. But this is the one piece of the defense that I gotta see them get corrected, is a week after week and it's it's the consistency part of it. Uh

that that we want to continue to build on. All right, let's get a break in here, I talk about your man's Who are you talking about about the airport? Man? The airport? That's to be so careful. News follows. Just some guys know this stuff follows. Some guys see you little talk about that. Mary Camin Harrison. I'm newly scrus
