00:00Let's talk about Chase Brown, maybe the more explosive running back between he and Zach
00:10Moss in the Cincinnati backfield, but a game script against Baltimore that probably is
00:14favoring the passing game just a tad. Now, maybe some mild touchdown equity there for
00:19Brown and Moss, but regardless, Rico Dowdle seems like the guy trending in that better
00:24direction because you see that he is getting more work. Finally, you have a little extra
00:30rest coming off the earlier game last week, and now it just appears that Zekiel Elliott
00:36is completely dust. So it should be Rico Dowdle's backfield. I know you have some concerns about
00:40maybe getting a little wet on that field and whatnot, but I don't know. For me, I'm investing
00:45in Rico Dowdle. I think Dowdle's the way to go here. I don't like split backfields or
00:49negative game scripts here for running back. So to me, it's Dowdle, but I know that's a
00:54tough one because you are a self-loathing, proclaimed cowboy fan. So how do you see this
00:59one? Brown or Dowdle?
01:02I don't, boy. Dowdle's done nothing this year. Everything you said is true. He is trending
01:07in as the star there.
01:08Well, Zekiel Elliott's done nothing this year. Dowdle has shown you at least some yardage
01:13in catching the football. He's done a little bit more, certainly more than Zeke. I think
01:16we can agree on that, right?
01:18Sure. Zeke wasn't even in this conversation. All right. I don't even know why he's on the
01:23team. Oh, I do know why. Just Jerry, whatever. That's a rabbit hole. You don't want to go
01:28down with me. Anyway, Dowdle's done very little. I know he had the screen pass for a touchdown
01:32last week. It was probably holding on the plate. Thank you, refs. But he's done nothing
01:38else. He's averaging 3.9 yards a carry. The Cowboys can't run the ball. They were the
01:41lowest-ranked rushing team in the NFL. That's not going to change now because they're a
01:45tough Pittsburgh team. That's not going to respect the Cowboys passing game whatsoever
01:49here. I agree with you about Brown. My thing is this. Dowdle's probably not getting in
01:55the end zone. We may not like Zeke, but if the Cowboys get the goal line, guess who's
01:59running the ball? That's Zeke. That's the only thing he does well. So he's going to
02:01get those shots there. I think Brown has a better chance at scoring. So I'm going to
02:06lean towards Brown here, not Dowdle, even though I sort of agree with what you're talking
02:10about here, that more touches could be coming Dowdle's way. If Cincinnati is going to win
02:14the game, it is going to be through the air, not on the ground. And that's what it does
02:19here. Burrow does have a good history of passing against the Ravens, and that is how
02:22you attack Baltimore, through the air.
