00:00I know you're always plugged into the NFC East and usually we talk a lot of Philadelphia

00:06Eagles but my goodness, the Dallas Cowboys a team in turmoil right now.

00:10We don't know if Mike McCarthy is going to survive at the end of the season and be brought

00:13back.

00:14The team is playing listless football and now Ezekiel Elliott was brought in in the

00:17offseason to try to both help bolster that running game.

00:20He's inactive today due to disciplinary reasons, Adam.

00:23What's going on in Dallas?

00:24Yeah, that's not good.

00:26He's not even on the flight from Dallas to Atlanta.

00:30That's bad.

00:31Look, they haven't been able to run the football.

00:32Donnie, this was a major mistake, by the way, when it comes to Jerry Jones, the owner general

00:36manager who is personnel control.

00:39They were not going to spend money at running back.

00:41So they brought in Dalvin Cook-Lade who's going to play today.

00:43He'll be the number two running back behind Rick O'Daddle.

00:47You didn't have to invest $10 million.

00:49There are plenty of backs out there that they could have signed.

00:52They declined to really bring in anyone of note.

00:54They didn't make a trade for Miles Sanders, which they thought was too exorbitant.

00:57He's $6 million, which is fully guaranteed.

01:00So it's been a problem.

01:01They can't run the ball effectively.

01:02They have one of the worst run games in the National Football League.

01:05They've got all sorts of injury problems.

01:07Trayvon Diggs is dressing today.

01:09Understand something.

01:10He's got a calf injury.

01:11Donnie, he didn't even practice this week, but they're so limited at the cornerback position.

01:15They're in trouble today.

01:17I'd be very surprised if they were able to win in Atlanta.

01:20Now, let's see how Atlanta handles success.

01:22The Bucs have all sorts of problems at receiver with injury.

01:25So they've got problems when they go into Kansas City tomorrow night.

01:28But getting back to the Cowboys, look, they're surprised.

01:33They were not expecting to be three and four.

01:34They're down three edge rushers.

01:36They've got cornerback problems, edge rusher problems, running back problems.

01:39They're an absolute mess.
