Description

Beat writers Calvin Watkins and Michael Gehlken kick off this episode with a review of the Cowboys’ loss to the Packers, which exposed Dallas’ run defense as its No. 1 weakness. Can the Cowboys get it fixed? Dallas owner Jerry Jones and the coaches are confident, but our team says the jury is out. 

We also answer a listener question about the recruitment of Odell Beckham Jr. and kicker Brett Maher. 

In our featured segment, Calvin and Michael interview former Cowboys receiver Roy Williams, who now lives in Odessa. Williams shares his thoughts about the state of the Cowboys, specifically Jalen Tolbert’s offside penalty in overtime against the Packers and CeeDee Lamb’s status as a No. 1 wideout. Williams also talks about his post-career business venture, MVP vodka. 

To close the episode, Calvin and Michael debate whether Tony Pollard should remain the starting running back over Ezekiel Elliott when Zeke returns from injury. Calvin has had a change of heart about Elliott, while Michael says the status quo has been working, so why change it?
