00:00how you feel about the matchup in terms of the outcome are you feeling like this is a toss-up

00:19are you favoring one side more than the other oh man i you know i'm i mean i think everybody's

00:26kind of going like okay we really want to see denver's defense versus the cowboys offense like

00:30can they play the entire game against each other because that's going to be like that that's kind

00:34of you know strength on strength and and and really those two going at it to me is is why i'm going to

00:39why i'm enjoying going to this game uh i you know i think it is you know it's it's an offense in

00:45denver that's that like we talked about is has issues and they're trying to figure some things

00:49out and they're trying to get right and you have a you have a dallas defense that's trying to figure

00:54some things out and trying to get right and i think out of those two groups like like who who

00:59really kind of really kind of plays above what we've seen them do this year could be kind of the

01:04determining factor of where this is at and so you have you know two teams that are really relying on

01:10one side of the ball so heavily honestly um how does the other side carry the weight i think kind

01:16of determines this one and i think it is kind of a toss-up i mean i don't know if anybody's playing

01:19better than back right now though like i think that's that's just kind of like you know kind of

01:24known around the league right now with the way that they're they're spreading the ball around

01:27and and i was talking to a defense coordinator the other day i was like is that your mvp he's like

01:32he's top two right now it's it's he's been so in command and so in control and so poised and so

01:38you know just really comfortable feels like he can put the ball anywhere there's a lot of options

01:42right now i mean van joseph has his hands full um i think you know you look at his defense too

01:47they didn't play great i mean there was no receivers for jackson dart really on that field

01:51they gave up like you know it was it was a defense that you didn't think was going to do that you

01:57know against against the against uh jackson dart and the giants so um i think they need to turn

02:02time around a little bit and this is a this is a difficult difficult test to do it so i kind of give

02:06honestly i will say it i think this elite broncos defense i think that the cowboys offense is playing

02:12a little better than they are right now and those are the two strengths

02:14you
