Hangin' With The 'boys

It’s amazing the punishment these players go through – 70 snaps of just trying to wear each other out. And you know it’s going to be that and more this Sunday. Also, do coaches today talk to players differently than they did in the past? Plus, Jourdan Lewis’ role when he comes back, stopping the run, predictions and your calls. Time to jet into the weekend!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If the Cowboys want to have a sack party against the Jets, they’ve got to earn it first by stopping the run. Don’t stop the run and it’s going to be a long, grinding day. Is that what coordinator Dan Quinn is telling his troops? What might the coaches on the other side be saying to Zach Wilson? Make no mistake, there’s a big wave bearing down on the New York quarterback.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Jets defense is no joke with perhaps only one player the difference between them and the Dallas defense. So how will the Cowboys offense have to attack those like the Williams brothers? Plus, did we just get a taste against the Giants of what Mike McCarthy’s offense can really do? No trap zone here in Week 2.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is there a big difference with Mike McCarthy calling plays now and his ability to better stay in the flow of the game? You bet there is. Plus, is there still anything to worry about after the Jets lost Aaron Rodgers. You bet there is. And a caller asks, is there a way for Micah Parsons and the Dallas defense to be stopped? You bet … well, maybe not!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How hyped should we be about that dominating victory? Are the Cowboys headed to the Super Bowl? Or since it was just one game, do we need to tap the brakes? Plus, Micah Parsons’ impact on the defense, KaVontae Turpin’s impact on the offense and Mike McCarthy mixing and matching while getting everyone involved. It’s Victory Monday!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It’s time to make our predictions about both the upcoming season and this Sunday’s game. Just how good is Dallas going to be? Also, will we see the Cowboys use more two-back sets in an effort to work the clock? Plus, Dak’s tattoo, injuries to both sides and your calls. Hey, it’s finally game time!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is it a lost opportunity if Micah Parsons isn’t going after the quarterback? Is stopping running back Saquon Barkley the key to stopping the Giants? Is tight end Darren Waller a new weapon the Cowboys need to worry about? It’s time for the Dallas defense to “Seize Everything” and show us they’re as good on the field as they are on paper!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One thing that Jesse notes about this Dallas offense? It’s looking awfully similar to Mike McCarthy’s offenses in Green Bay when he used more of a committee approach … which isn’t a bad thing. But how do the Cowboys use their offense to combat a Giants defense that has strength up front and likes to blitz? It’s time to play and play fast!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

So if the Cowboys just make it to the NFC Championship Game this year, would the season be considered a success? Or given the talent they have, is it Super Bowl or bust? (Really, how can you make this team any better?) Plus, offensive line worries, Deion talk and McCarthy play-calling. It’s finally Game Week!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Roughly 80 percent of the Cowboys’ current roster was drafted or originally signed by the team. What’s that say about the organization and how does it help the team? Plus, Dak Prescott has a big year ahead. Was last season the exception or the new rule? There’s only one way to find out. Plus, selling hope and how can Trey Lance contribute? It’s the last weekend before real NFL football!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Yesterday was of course cut-down day. Were there any surprises? How are the Cowboys now at linebacker? Plus, while some are gone, others are back, in particular Jourdan Lewis. What can we expect from him this year? And how about those receivers – less pressure on Michael Gallup, Brandin Cooks’ speed and, oh my, CeeDee Lamb is looking good.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Well, when it comes this Trey Lance trade, the Boys have plenty of things to say about it and a few questions to ask. Like, what’s the long game here? Plus, final roster cuts are due tomorrow. Who might be on the outside looking in? Is the team trying to wheel and deal some trades? Speaking of, Nate and Jesse share their memories of going through final cuts and the pressure that comes with it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Asking permission or begging forgiveness? The Boys just can’t resist talking about Brandin Cooks giving teammates a little sightseeing tour on Saturday. And how do the injuries to DeMarvion Overshown and John Stephens affect both them and the team? It’s nothing but crazy shirts, good times and more in the brand new studio!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Cowboys had a few scuffles at practice yesterday. Is that a good thing? (Bring the intensity.) Or bad? (No punching helmets, please.) Plus, Jesse has concerns about the offensive line. Is this a weak link that could ruin the Cowboys season? And, of course, more Deuce talk. Is he in the No. 2 back conversation? If not, what’s his role?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey, there’s a preseason game to discuss! How about the speed of those young linebackers? Impressive, to say the least. Just like Deuce Vaughn’s burst. But can these guys truly be judged when facing second- and third-stringers? Plus, Mazi Smith’s debut. He’s got power for sure, but how does he improve his get-off?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nate is back from training camp as well and he breaks down what he sees from the offensive line. Plus, what about those wide receivers? There’s a good battle going on for the final couple of spots.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We all figure Zack Martin will be back soon, but is he really going to be ready to go Week One? Is his absence making it harder for those around him to get ready? Plus, are the Cowboys heading in the right direction at kicker? And should we be worried about Michael Gallup as WR3? With Nate checking in from camp, we got a lot going on here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nate give us the inside scoop from training camp. Micah Parsons has been doing what he do. Is that good for the offense’s development? How about his own development in preparation for a long season?
