00:02 A part of the marquee side of things on Sunday afternoon, Donnie,

00:07 in Philadelphia at the link.

00:09 It's the Cowboys and the Eagles, the first matchup between these two bitter

00:13 NFC East rivals of this season.

00:15 Philly booked as the favorite, they're laying three at home at this moment.

00:20 The Birds, Donnie, a favorite in all eight of their games already this year,

00:25 soon to make it nine in this monumental week nine matchup against Dallas.

00:30 >> Yeah, and this is gonna be a big one here, and rightfully so, 425.

00:33 It's gonna get ratings, it's gonna be everything you want,

00:35 superstars across the map, and away we go.

00:38 And also the Philadelphia Eagles getting slighted, I think,

00:40 a little bit here, Ben, with that three point line.

00:42 The Eagles have the best record in the NFL, but

00:44 it seems like the week to week moniker for the Eagles is, they won again, yeah, but

00:48 they should have lost that game.

00:49 The 49ers lose three in a row, it's like, well, what do you want them to do?

00:52 They're a little bit injured, give them a little bit of slack.

00:53 The Eagles don't get that, but that's why you're a good football team, right?

00:56 You shouldn't have to get that slack.

00:58 You made it to the World Championship game last year in the Super Bowl,

01:00 you didn't come away with it, you're having a very good season,

01:03 you expect big things.

01:04 But this game for me is gonna come down to a few different components.

01:07 It's whether or not Jalen Hurts is fully 100% healthy,

01:09 which it seems like he hasn't been the past couple weeks, but

01:12 still been ultra effective in the pocket.

01:14 Why?

01:15 Cuz AJ Brown has gone nuclear at the wide receiver position, and

01:18 nobody can cover him.

01:19 But I gotta tell you, starting to come on strong, a really talented wide receiver

01:24 in that Dallas offensive CD Lamb.

01:26 You take a look at the FanDuel Sportsbook this weekend,

01:28 it's a 75 and a half.

01:29 Why do I bring him up?

01:30 Because the one part that you can really attack the Philadelphia Eagles.

01:33 Now sometimes it's an anomaly where for some reason the Washington Commanders,

01:37 doesn't matter Eric Biennium or not, starting quarterbacks changing here.

01:40 They always seem to get after the Eagles secondary.

01:43 But it's been that third cornerback position, the slot cornerback,

01:46 where if CD Lamb is gonna line up inside multiple times,

01:49 Mike McCarthy can scheme him open.

01:51 This is gonna be a fantastic game to watch all the way through, but

01:54 that's the combination I need.

01:55 I have a feeling if CD Lamb approaches 100 yards,

01:59 the Dallas Cowboys have a legitimate chance to come into Philadelphia and win.

02:03 If CD Lamb does not hit his prop of 75 and a half,

02:06 I do think they're gonna struggle to beat the Philadelphia Eagles.

02:08 Sometimes it doesn't come down to multiple players,

02:11 sometimes it comes down to one player that I'm looking at.

02:14 CD Lamb, that's the linchpin here for the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday at the link.
