Kenny Clark

So let's talk about storylines here.

The Cowboys have been in the news for more pungent reasons of late, as opposed to Jerry Jones, like trading Micah Parsons, getting Kenny Clark back, trading for Quinn and Williams, franchise tagging George Pickens.

You've got CD there.

You've got Javante there.

in the trenches.

And I think I look at Arizona's offensive line and I look at the Cowboys defensive line, which has not been great on the edges.

Like they've been really struggling to get a pass rush, but this is a game where Quinn and Williams and Kenny Clark should dominate.

I mean, Arizona's had several injuries, of course, to Paris Campbell, Chase Basantis, the shuffling guys in and out.

This is a Micah Parsons return.

The Packers gave two first-round picks and Kenny Clark to the Cowboys for Micah Parsons.

That was the exact trade package, right, I think? I believe so.

Yeah, and so Kenny at that stage in his career, what's the equivalent for Kenny Clark at that stage of his career? A fourth-round pick maybe? So this is kind of an identical – granted Kenny Clark is a known commodity of fourth round pick is, is not, but it's kind of equivalent to what the Packers gave up for Micah Parsons and Jeffrey Simmons is that elite level talent.

I'm not saying he's as good as Micah is when healthy, but like this is a Micah Parsons level package that the bears just gave up and look credit to them.

They see a Superbowl window.

The organization has invested in him more than anybody else on the team save Jordan Love.

And, I mean, you could make an argument they invested more in Michael than Jordan Love because they gave up two first-round draft picks and Kenny Clark to get him, along with a $47 million-a-year contract.

I mean, if that don't make you a made guy to be able to speak your mind, I don't know what will.

I'll tell you one thing.

Who could have seen it coming this year? They bring in a full year of someone like Quinn and Williams.

They add a bunch of talent like the Clark trade midseason.

Yes, they got rid of Parsons, all that kind of stuff.

But they bring in Joey Porter Jr. Midseason this year.

But like you think about Dexter Lawrence on some of the really bad Giants teams, right? His individual numbers and then like even his PFF grades or whatever it was were still stellar.

Like they grade Quinn Williams 48th at his position.

Kenny Clark 79th at his position.

Malachi Lawrence, who's a rookie, 100th.

You know, and hopefully DeMarvin Overshawn can come and A, stay healthy, but B, also, you know, be a stabilizing force on that level of the defense.

And then, like you said, Donnie, once you start to have a Joey Porter play better, and if Overshawn can play better, and if Kenny Clark and Twinn and Williams can continue to take the steps that they have, all of a sudden, you've got people performing at all different levels.

of the defense, and at least you got a shot.

At least you got a shot at that point.

And if Jeremiah Love is not getting as many reps due to his ankle injury, we see Bam Knight there.

Then to me, the matchup is going to be with the Cowboys interior, Kenny Clark and Quentin Williams, because I was watching the Cardinals last game.

And once Bam Knight got going through their gaps, and they were pretty wide gaps, and we've seen that a couple of times with the Cowboys interior.

So I'm just going to be looking for them to hold up that wall and take away the other threat.

And if that's their lowest threat, I don't see Quinn and Williams, who's been doing better, getting, I think he got a sack in the last two games.

Kenny Clark and just holding up that wall and just taking away their run game completely and forcing them to throw it to their only threat, Terry McBride.

And if you get it to Terry McBride, we have we have sorry, Trey McBride.

We have Caleb Downs.

And if Jeremiah Love is not getting as many reps due to his ankle injury, we see Bam Knight there.

And I don't know if it was a part of the plan, but... and Saquon Barkley not pulled his hands on that first big run, this might have got real interesting in the second half of football.

It definitely would have, but once again, all the money that you've already invested, what can you really go get? You got Quinn Williams, you got Kenny Clark, you got Rashawn Gary.

You still

ain't naming pass rusher.
