Jordan Davis

So even if he plays at this game, extremely limited.

But we do know that they have Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis, and they've got a really good front seven defense.

They've got to take control of this game.

This is a defense that Dak Prescott has faced several times.

And hopefully, like I said, that confidence, like that, jolts them into back into the offense that we had seen in the kind of weeks before that and really 2025 as well

we could talk about like the matchup against cd lamb against cooper dejean in the slot uh the eagle safeties are like the big weakness of the defense that's where they've gotten killed all season long but i want to focus up front tyler booker cooper bb tyler smith Those are two offensive linemen that you drafted in round one, one that you drafted in round three, one that you drafted at 12th overall.

You drafted them for a matchup like this, going up against Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis, two first-round picks.

It's not to say that they need to absolutely blow them off the line of scrimmage because that's unrealistic.

Georgia's being ran side to side, kind of like, right, getting the ball out fast and having to really run and run and run and run and run.

So you have to be leaner, right? I think – Not 100% gone are the days of Jordan Davis, right, where you get the 340-pound behemoth there.

But at the same time, you're going to see these guys get lower, like get smaller.

But they're going to have to be freakish athletes too.

So if they had a healthy Jonathan Grenard, a healthy Jalex Hunt, a healthy Nolan Smith, you'd go into this and go, you can really get pressure from the outside offensively.

on Dak, on the edges, and then you hope that the interior, Jordan Davis, Jalen Carter, Mauro Jomo, collapse the pocket, and you could really get after Dak, and he will take chances.

The issue is, if you don't have Grenard, if you don't have Hunt, you won't have Nolan Smith, the edges you have are probably not going to win that matchup.

So the offensive line is only okay because of the tackles, but I don't know if the Eagles have the defensive line to really take advantage of it.

What it should be is an unbelievable run-stopping team and an unbelievable running back.

And obviously Saquon has been hurt, and Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis have not necessarily played the way in which you hoped they would play this year.

I think that was the...

See, the storyline over the offseason that we totally ignored because we didn't think it was as big... as another one was we focused so much, so much on Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown.

You're going up against an Eagles team, an Eagles defense, where the strength, the strength...

in theory, should be their pass rush with their coverage behind it.

I don't know that's a place that you want to live in terms of allowing Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis and that front to be able to tee off on your quarterback.

So an Eagles win tonight would end the Cowboys but not start the Eagles, in essence.

So, you know, if they had a healthy Jonathan Grenard, a healthy Jalex Hunt, a healthy Nolan Smith, you'd go into this and go, you can really get pressure from the outside on Dak, on the edges.

And then you hope that the interior, Jordan Davis, Jalen Carter, Mauro Jomo, collapse the pocket.

And you could like really get after Dak and he will take chances.

The issue is, if you don't have Grenard, if you don't have Hunt, you won't have Nolan Smith.

Jalen Carter still makes a difference.

Jordan Davis, those guys make a difference.

But on the edge, they just haven't been able to get pressure this season.

They're not getting sacks.

So if they're going to get pressure, it's going to have to come from blitzing, linebacker blitzing, and or the guys up front.

And that defensive line, which has garnered a lot of conversation around here for a long time, Jalen Carter, Jordan Davis, Mauro Jomo, they got to dominate the game tonight.

If their team has a chance to win, they need to dominate the game.

I put it on Carter the most because he's the most expensive.

And I would think another underlying theme here that is very significant is that we might actually see – landon dickerson at left guard and drew kendall at center uh and tyler steen was a full participant in practice he should be the right guard we might actually see the eagles starting offensive line now in its full health

yeah so here's everyone who's cleared but willie lampkin of that illness that showed up he's cleared oh joe most clear to play with the abdomen injury steen you mentioned Jordan Davis, remember, we saw him, and he was hobbled, but he was fine.

He got treatment.

He took all his reps. He's cleared.

But you just you don't know what you're going to get on a week to week basis.

So for sure, one thing begets another, right? Just like we talk about with the Eagles, the Cowboys are having trouble running.

And if that continues with Jordan Davis and Jalen Carter, the way they've been playing, you would think the Eagles feel good about that.

That, of course, puts the Cowboys in a ton of third and long situations.
