That's on the other side
0:01
But I do think ultimately the Cowboys are going to come out on top
0:06
It's going to be a hard-fought game. And, you know, I hate that for the Ravens
0:09
I'm sorry. Sorry in advance. I hate that for y'all. I apologize in advance
0:14
I hate that for y'all. But I really do expect the Cowboys to show up and prove it like they've been talking about all week. Yeah
0:24
And being that you said the Ravens have a really good run defense, then that gives that play action a chance to come into fruition, too
0:32
that you were looking for from Dak and CD or, you know, another wide receiver that you're hoping to get in there
0:39
But I hope, I really do hope that they have regained themselves over this past week
0:47
and they really just come out and. What I'm really hoping is that they can use the pass to establish a lead
0:54
And then from there, they can use that lead to give them a little bit of space to start doing things in the run game
1:01
I am concerned about our run game. Because they do need to work on that. They do need to get real-time reps when it comes to the run
1:08
Because, I mean, practice can only do so much. Yeah. Right? And then plus, when it comes to figuring out what's really going to work, like, you do kind of want to, like, first of all, you can't go a whole game just passing the ball anyway
1:20
Like, that's not going to happen. but you absolutely do want to see, okay
1:26
what is this run game going to do against a qualified defense? Ultimately, that's something that you're going to have to find out at some point
1:32
So eventually they're going to have to bust it out. But what I'm hoping is that they can use the run early
1:37
to really get the game under control and then start incorporating the run a little bit more
1:44
as opposed to vice versa, which is what a lot of teams try to do. Yeah because their run game to me it mimicked a little bit not last season but the season before that When the first half of the season I really felt like they were just doing a lot of trick plays
2:00
trying to establish really what the run game was going to look like. But to me, I'm like, I get it, but I don't
2:06
Like, this is not the time to be testing things out. Like, when the season starts, I kind of expect y'all to have a game plan
2:12
And I feel like right now it's the same thing. They don't really have a solid game plan when it comes to the run game
2:18
And, you know, we're like, oh, and I'm happy personally that Zeke is back
2:21
But if we bring him back, you need to have a game plan for Zeke. And Rico Dotto, like he's a good running back to me, but also we lost Pollard
2:29
He is the combination of Pollard and Zeke to me. Play is designed for them and actually scheming for them
2:36
So I feel like that's one of the things where they're falling short is that it doesn't feel like anything has been designed for any of these runners
2:43
You can't expect Deuce Vaughn to be able to go out and just, like, replace Zeke whenever he's tired
2:51
And just the offense is going to run the same plays. But it's just going to be Deuce
2:55
Like, no. Their skill sets are different. Their strengths are different. Because last game, that killed them
3:00
Deuce Vaughn, he's a very skilled player to me. But they tossed him around
3:04
That was the wrong player to put in those situations. They have not done right by Deuce in the regular season ever
3:11
Ever. No. And it frustrates the crap out of me. They have yet to do right by Deuce
3:16
And I'm like, I know what he has on him. Like you said, he's like such a skilled player
3:22
And he doesn't even need that much room anymore. His rookie year, I could see it
3:27
Because in preseason, you could kind of see that he needed a lot of room. Like his strides were very big
3:32
And that's why in preseason he did so well. But in the regular season, he kind of got shut down
3:36
because he didn't have enough space to do what he normally did. Yeah. Now you can see that he a little bit better at maneuvering in smaller spaces Absolutely But he getting like no space Like the gaps that he tries to go through are just collapsing in on him and i like literally literally happened
3:53
last game please design for something for this kid so that he can shine i i hate it whenever i
4:00
see people say the deuce von experiment is over because i feel like he has not been given the
4:05
chance that he deserves you right and so like i i want to see them do better by him
4:11
That's right. You have to, looking at the running back room, you have to design these plays for each of them
4:17
because each of them are physically different, and each of them play completely different
4:22
They run different. They have different strengths, and you have to play to those. If not, we'll see what we saw last game
4:28
You're putting your running backs out there for what reason, for what game? For a few yards a game, apparently
4:35
Like, that's not good enough. And I'm like, the Ravens are already holding teams at 2.3 yards per carry
4:40
that's like almost all the cowboys are getting anything i'm saying what are we gonna do
4:47
let me not talk myself out of the cowboys win no no please let me bring you back in
4:55
but that is just like a running backs i get passionate talking about next i'm like
5:00
and i know it's common but i hate to play where they run it up the middle because like
5:04
half of the time it's unsuccessful but then even more so like now we had rico dottle doing it and
5:10
I'm not saying that he can't get it done, but I don't think that's where he's best used. But I also think they don't want to put Zeke there and kind of expose him in that situation
5:17
We've seen both Rico and Zeke have some success, but it's not consistent enough
5:24
and it doesn't look easy enough. Even when it has happened, it's like, oh, well, that was lucky
5:32
One of the things that you heard repeated a lot after the last game was everything the Cowboys did looked hard and I feel like that was especially true with the running game Yes there were a couple of runs that were over three yards So props to them
5:46
But even though it looked really hard, it looked like they might not happen
5:50
So I think we want to see better blocking assignments. We want to see things open up for our running backs
5:58
So, yes. Do you have any thoughts, anything else that you expected to see on Sunday
6:03
I'm expecting to see a win. I'm expecting to see everybody come out and play to their full capability
6:08
I don't want to see. And this is what I'll leave it with. I want to see the passion
6:15
I want to see the players, like, energized and, like, ramped up on the sidelines
6:21
It was like, yeah, because it was the same. And people keep referencing the game, the Green Bay game, to the Saints game
6:28
I compare the two especially as far as the energy. The players had the same kind of dead energy
6:35
You cannot go into a game like that and expect to win. When I played softball, every time we went into a game like that, we lost
6:40
Yeah. I just want to see the Cowboys prove people wrong. I want to see the Cowboys prove that they are as tough as they say that they are
6:48
that they can stop the run, that they can run the ball, even against the Ravens, that they can figure out the situation
6:54
and figure out plays that will work for them to have a much more consistent result
6:59
And yes, I am expecting Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb To light that field up
7:05
Light it up So I'm hoping for a fun game on Sunday Yes, it will be competitive
7:09
It's two good teams But ultimately, Cowboys win Score prediction Girl, I hate prediction
7:15
I'm not doing it I'm not doing it I have the choice now
7:19
You have the choice I'm going to say it's going to be close I'll say that Okay
7:23
It's going to be close But we're going to win Well, thanks for joining me, Candy Yes, thank you
7:27
This has been a fun show you guys have a good night bye
