Hangin' With The 'Boys

Ahead of the tonight’s release of the Deep Blue documentary “Coach Joe,” Jesse and Nate share stories of their time around former special teams coach Joe Avezzano. Plus, Joe Milton had some comments after practice that caught our attention. And how about a few players fighting for roster spots will we be watching in the final preseason matchup.

Head coach Brian Schottenheimer has said they’re keeping the play calls during the preseason simple. But what’s that mean when guys struggle with the simple things? Also, should they continue to run Joe Milton out there? He needs reps to help his development, but how does that affect evaluating the other guys on the offense? And about that depth at cornerback …

Jesse calls in from California to tell us about the last padded practice out in Oxnard. (Hint: it was a good one.) But, the Cowboys head back to Texas with a lot of questions still to be answered. Could those answers come from outside the organization? Also, how tough mentally is it now for Mazi Smith? Can Joe Milton learn to put some touch on his passes? And why are people overlooking Jalen Tolbert?

So none of the starters played in the first preseason game. Can we expect them to be ready for Week 1 at the Eagles after only one scrimmage and a bunch of practices? Is Joe Milton ready to be the backup? Did anybody stand out? Plus, Jesse calls in with the latest from training camp and tells us about his experience at Netflix’s premiere of the new Jerry Jones documentary.

Since Nate has boots on the ground at training camp, he gives us a first-hand breakdown of the Cowboys’ scrimmage against the Rams yesterday. And unfortunately, Brian Schottenheimer’s group has a lot to work on. Are we looking at the same old issues in the run game on both sides of the ball?

There have been enough skirmishes and such at training camp that Coach Schottenheimer made the team run. So is all this physicality in practice a good thing? Are they also learning discipline? Let’s hope so. Plus, just what is an “attacking front” on the defensive line and, well, do the Cowboys have the players to do it?

The injury bug has bitten a few players out at training camp, most notably Tyler Guyton. Nate calls in to give us the updates and who he thinks might be stepping in to replace those walking wounded. Plus, Jesse’s prediction came true with the signing of Jake Ferguson. The ’Boys are off in Oxnard today, but your boys here are back in the studio. Come hang with us.

As Nate tells us from Oxnard, lot of talk about the pace and intensity of Brian Schottenheimer’s practices … and some of the chippiness it’s brought on. Is that a good thing? Hey, if you’re not practicing aggressively, can you be aggressive in games? Plus, Jesse has a few players he’s hearing good things about, including rookie Donovan Ezeiruaku. It’s a football Friday!
