00:00What do you expect from Brian Schottenheimer's offense schematically

00:19and Ibraflus' defense second time around here?

00:24Yeah, I wish I could tell you a little bit about Schottenheimer,

00:27but he has played it so close to the best.

00:29That, honestly, we're going to have to go to the game and see what he does

00:33and how they attack it.

00:34If I'm Philadelphia, it's interesting.

00:36They play a lot of 11 personnel, which is one tight end, one running back,

00:40three wide receivers.

00:43You know, Tavon Diggs is going to play tonight.

00:45He'll be on a pitch count.

00:48The Cowboys are seeing a corner.

00:50He goes out.

00:52If I'm Philly, I play four wide receivers, or at worst, flex Dallas Goddard out,

00:58so it has a four wide receiver look.

01:00I want to put as many Dallas Cowboys cornerbacks on the field as possible

01:05when Tavon Diggs goes out of the game.

01:07So that's funny.

01:09That's the way I would attack it from Philly's standpoint,

01:12but we'll see what they do.

01:13Now, that being said, do you really want to not hand the ball to Saquon Barkley?

01:20So, boy, in this salary cap era, you can't be strong everywhere.

01:26You know, once upon a time, and you go back to those Cowboys' 90s teams, right,

01:30they were great on defense, they were great on offense.

01:33Now, with the salary cap, you kind of can be good here,

01:35you've got to plug some holes here, but this Philadelphia team,

01:39I mean, they're good in the front four, they're good at linebacker,

01:43they're good in the secondary, they're good at receiver,

01:46they're good at quarterback, they're good at running back,

01:48they have the best offensive line in football.

01:51I mean, it's going to be a challenge.

01:52There's a reason why there are 16 games being played this weekend,

01:56and the Cowboys are the biggest underdog in any of them.
