'THE COWBOYS ARE ALL-OUT!' 📉 Stephen A. CAN'T WAIT for Cowboys-Texans on MNF 🤠 | First Take

all right uh Stephen how confident should Dallas be with that schedule they shouldn't be that confident I mean listen they're in the division and we understand that and obviously the commanders you know they they G to move on up we'll see what they do the Giants I'm not sold on them so it's really only the Eagles that they have to worry about right there Dallas probably lose a division because we haven't had uh somebody winning back-to-back division crowns in quite a long time in the NFC East if I remember correctly but at the end of the day uh Philadelphia got saquan Bley to join an offense that already has what they have so I'm looking at the Philadelphia Eagles to win the division this year what have you I'm looking at Dak looking to get his bag I'm looking at Jerry Jones having CD lamb and Michael P looking to get their bag I'm looking at the absence of movement this off season from the Dallas Cowboys why should I expect anything I mean the Dallas Cowboys fan base will convince itself no we going to superl this year you know superl next year we know they gonna do that I mean it's who they are it's what they do and then they'll fall flat on their face in January and then we won't be able to find them for a few months because they'll be licking their wounds and then you know they'll extend vitory out to anybody who doubted them even though we've been right year after year decade after decade after decade um they don't know they'll never learn they can't change remember that episode in The Honeymooners when Ralph cron was talking about his mother-in-law she's never changed Alice she's going to be the same old way Alice it's not gonna be any different you this is these are the Dallas Cowboy fans so we understand they're going to be they're going to be who they are but then reality will set in because of RC and Woody and the plethora of outstanding NFL analysts we have on this network pointing out the obvious you know and of course I'll be there to just accentuate and punctuated in fashion that is appropriate and we will move on that's what's going to happen Stephen I'm G tell you this this is going to be the worst season you've ever had the worst football season you've ever had on first take yes this is why this got interesting this is why you know what you live for you live for the Dallas Cowboys to be built up so you can bring them down right you live to be able to come on here and on Monday mornings during the season and say dak's been this this week and Dak is great and look what Jerry's put together so when it gets to the playoffs you can have your San Francisco 49er moment so when it gets to the playoff you can have your Jordan love Green Bay moment guess what you ain't going to get that that in the playoffs this year you ain't F to get that built up you saying that the Dallas Cowboys fans are now sitting at home saying they G to win the championship no they ain't I know Dallas Cowboys fans they are trying to be Houston Texans fans right now there are people who are trying to move down the road so they can cheer for CJ stra instead of cheering for Dak Prescott because they already know and that stretch of the season that you talked about in the middle that's when it's all going to come to in head that's when you're going to have to show up here one morning and your Southern Steve hat with your cigar and talk about the fact that Mike McCarthy just got fired and then you're going to be bringing on Adam shefer to talk about what are possible Landing spots for Dak Prescott in the off season because the team that was supposed to be all in turned out they was all out this offseason they was all out to lunch they was all out on vacation they was all out working at the working out at equinox or whatever gym it is that they stay so fit and triming because they wasn't getting ready to win no Championship you gonna be bored uh I I I I'll say this Ryan Clark before I get handed over to Woody um you know your Libra brother you know your Libra brother you know your brother here on first tap doing me build bring I think I think you know that I'll come up with something I think you know I'll come up with something don't you worry it don't matter when they it don't matter when they plummet it don't matter how how how low expectations are I'll figure out something don't you worry Don't You wor troll bro don't you wor what Dan gr always say about the nfcs like they just somebody else wins it right yeah Dallas Cowboys won it last year I believe it's not gonna happen this you got Phil I got Philadelphia Eagles yeah I got Philadelphia Eagles listen listen how much better did Philly get uh listen personal wise they got a lot better I think the question I think the question for Philadelphia is they got two two new coordinators Y how much improvement are they going to make you know with the with the two coordinators and also just jayen Herz we saw last year he wasn't very good like when people pressing him yeah how much better is he going to get with that but when you add Squan Barkley to the mix with the with the with this Philadelphia Eagles team think about what saquan Barkley has been dealing with playing with the New York Giants with Daniel Jones as your quarterback knowing that you going into the games you literally got a bullseye I'm at least there's Nicks and Rangers they're in the mix do you want me to deflect to you want me to switch it over to the Knicks we can do that no I think I Philly obviously got better and we don't know what Washington's going to be too yeah I mean you think you know has definitely better yeah what's you you know what has me smiling first of all Dallas seven of their first 10 games I believe are against playoff teams from last season Y but you know I'm keeping my eyes on week 11 that's when Dallas that's when they play Houston that's when they play Houston that's when CJ and the crew that's when that's when CJ Str and the crew comes in the Texas okay in the Dallas Texas all right what I love about it is that you know there's a lot of noise that's going to be made about Dak Prescott you know I'm saying this money he's gonna get paid and all of this other stuff and you know I'm not listen listen I want the brothers to get paid I I certainly am an advocate for that the flip side to it however is that must we must we I mean can we avoid any longer the fact that Dak Prescott might not even be the best quarterback in Texas that week that game the world is going to be watching because you got Dallas the Cowboys and you got a team in Texas with a quarterback in his second year that has already shown you the ability to show out could you imagine on even though it's a regular season game if CJ stra roll up in the AT&T Stadium and plays lights out and outperforms Dak Prescott everybody gonna be watching but excuse me I will Southern Steve if you were a if you were a betting man we all know you'll be watching with your bunch of crunch or whatever your you probably don't eat that anymore you're too skinny now yeah now that he's skinny he'll have his green juice baby I'm fit okay you're fit all right now that you're okay let's F Stay Focus I I want to ask stev a question can't believe you guys what color is that suit I like that suit what color is that sumon it's salmon it's salmon salmon Molly I'mma put I'mma put myself on blast on national TV Molly let me tell you something right now it ain't skinny ladies it's fit okay I'm so certain of this I'm so certain of this here we go do you know that I got a bet with Ryan Clark Ryan Clark and I haven't figured haven't figured out the the subject matter but if I lose bet what's the bet if I lose the BET tell me I had I said we haven't figured out what the bet is but if I lose come on I have promised that I'm gonna fly down to Louisiana and have him put me through a workout on camera and that's gonna be the last time y'all see Stephen A I'm I'mma collap he's G to kill but we don't know we don't know what the subject matter is for the BET y cuz we so we've already put the beted in place of what he'll have to pay me if he loses we just got to figure out what it is what the subject figure I have to agree what's the Flip's the flip go C what's the flip ain't no flip ain't no flip so it's automatically happening it's all okay sure it Happ cuz I owe them I love
