    This is one of the few guys who knows as much as Mosher and Landon. Kudos.
  • @darrendunn8621
    That dude doesn’t look like he would be a football guru. He knew his stuff. Nice show
  • @cmetarheel
    REALLY helpful episode. Learned a lot about what Zimmer is now compared to what he was in the 90s.
  • @brandonvegas6869
    Zim has been running cover 4 - cover 6 coverages during his time as DB coach with Dallas.

    Luke makes me kinda wish I was a Vikes fan. Seems like a smart football guy. Much better than the other NFC east locked on podcasters.

    Hes a hard ass, not a good buddy coach, thats needed I think he is gonna let 11 free to rush any gap, etc.. I think I would to avoid double teams, but who the hell am I to say.

    I’m concerned about our front 7, we really don’t have any linebackers that will be great in this system. Clark will play but Bell will most likely drop back to safety, who knows what we will get out of Overshown. Eric Kendricks could be a big addition for Zimmer
  • @Capncomeback2023
    I’m all for moving Micah back to the position we Drafted him at, LB. I think it would be super exciting, especially if they also Draft one of the top LBs available. But I also believe we should sign a DT in FA. THAT is our biggest weakness. If they could sign Chris Jones, that would solve that problem for 4 or 5 years. And hopefully Mazi and other DTs we have, develop.

    All of these podcasts and videos about what's going to happen, will Cowboys fans see a Lombardi trophy with zimmer?? This crap is getting tired #frustratedcowboysfan
  • Dallas needs cap space so they need to trade off Gallup Jalen Tolbert let Tony Pollard walk and I think they're going to lose D. Armstrong let Dante Fowler go create space for a new running back bring in some other veterans
  • @leosantiago773
    Start Sam Williams at DE and make Micah play LB/De to be unpredictable

    On other podcast.. Jesse Holley & Isaiah Stanback chaperones for Camp Cupcake 🧁 “ Zimmer will be too hard and players need to want to come to work “ ( ARE YOU FREAKING SERIOUS?! ) You’re getting a lot of money to play a kids game. Players who are too sensitive to be coached up can leave. Y’all ask why.. Cowboys fold each and every time they get punched in the mouth ?? Yeah.. they’re soft! Lmao. DQ good coach, but nothing more than a friendly uncle to the players. They’re too relaxed & too comfy!. Hence why we’re also #1 in penalties or close to it. Mike Zimmer ain’t gonna kiss yo azz!. You wanna play?.. then do your freaking job!. If not trade ‘Em & get ‘Em out!.. and get the right players with the right mentality here. We have a very soft culture and it’s gotta go!.
