00:00That's gonna be interesting. And then not to mention is that a lot of times, at least
00:07this is what I have heard, is that whenever we have a Saints matchup, and maybe not particularly
00:12versus the Cowboys, but it could still happen, Chris Alave to have one of the longest receptions
00:19because he's the guy that they always go to to make that D-ball connection. So even if
00:23he hits the under of what you just mentioned, I mean, that one big air out ball from Carr
00:29to Alave is something that we can almost feel like we're gonna see, right? But I'm hesitant
00:34after all the mess that was tonight's game. Right. I have to preface by saying I am heavily
00:40invested in Chris Alave this season, both in terms of his yards and fantasy. I make
00:45Chris Alave a believer. I think he's an awesome wide receiver, but this is also a very difficult
00:49matchup. And given the pressure that the Cowboys can bring on defense and some of the mistakes
00:55we've seen Derek Carmichael over the course of his career, the pressure will not allow
00:58Carr to have the time to get those deep balls out of there. And it's actually gonna be more
01:02of a short passing game for the Saints. So I think Chris Alave is awesome. I want him
01:06to have a huge year. I just don't know if it's gonna come this week. Yeah. And just
01:10to kind of paint a picture, at least for now, it's looking like Alave would potentially
01:15match up versus Carson and Wilson for the Cowboys defense, which kind of makes you almost
01:20want to run in that direction. But in the same sense, I mean, if they can switch over
01:23or Cowboys nickel package, you can count on Alave kind of being a little bit more locked
01:27down. They are gonna make sure that they keep them isolated out of the game plan and
01:31try to force those mistakes that we've seen Carr make. I wouldn't be surprised if we see
01:34more ground focus out of the Saints to try to control not only the clock, but to try
01:38to manage the Cowboys and what they can deliver. Anything else that stands out to you with
01:42this matchup with either team? Probably not. Don't lay the minus 115 for Zeke Elliott touchdown.
01:51Don't lay minus money for touchdown. That's what I was hoping you would mention. I was
01:55hoping you'd mention it. We're talking about it in the break. And Tom goes, No, who wants
01:59to do this? Who's going to do this? And I'm glad you mentioned it because I don't want
02:02to be that person heading into this weekend. We know some people didn't love the scripts
02:06in what we laid out.
