KRLD-FM / 105.3 The Fan

With the Dallas Cowboys' defense in shambles due to injuries to Micah Parsons, DeMarcus Lawrence and DaRon Bland, it's time for the Cowboys' offense to step up this Sunday, Jon Machota of The Athletic said Thursday on the K&C Masterpiece.

00:00So, John, I'm going to go to the other side now.

00:02I look at C.D. Lamb.

00:04He's had a solid year.

00:06But I feel like in this game, the Cowboys have a chance to win.

00:09I think they're playing an average team.

00:11I know that they're 3-1, but I think Pittsburgh's an average team, and the Cowboys can beat

00:15average teams.

00:17But to do that, I feel like C.D. Lamb has to have one of those close-to-10 receptions,

00:23over 100 yards, and at least one touchdown.

00:28Yeah, I couldn't agree with you more.

00:30I don't see the Cowboys winning this game without C.D. Lamb having a big game.

00:34And when I say that, you know, he's had some really good first halves, but, I don't know,

00:40there just hasn't been as much production in the second half, for whatever reason, going

00:43away from him, trying to get other things going.

00:46I feel like in this game, he has to have, and I'm not going to say like the Detroit

00:49game last year, where he goes for a couple hundred yards, but I would feel like this

00:52has to be a game where he's like for $1.25, $1.50.

00:57They're going to have to do something offensively that, I'm just not at the point now where

01:01I think all of a sudden the running game's going to click, even if they get more attempts.

01:04I feel like for them to have a shot to win this game, they're going to have to put up

01:07points in the passing game.

01:08You're not going to have cooks.

01:09How else are you going to do that, other than C.D. Lamb having a monster game?

01:13So yeah, I agree with you on that.
