DMN Debrief: How will the GOP midterm convention affect Dallas traffic?

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt analyze the impact of Tyler Smith's absence from the Cowboys' offensive line for a month or more. Joe notes that T.J. Bass is a serviceable backup at left guard, but it leaves a thin line on the verge of snapping if anyone else goes down. How does that impact their chances of making the playoffs? Evan tells us that if the Rangers want to make the playoffs, they need a hot streak, which means they need Wyatt Langford to match Corey Seager's bounceback. And the guys discuss a wild first CFB weekend in which SMU pulled out a win despite four turnovers on the road, Texas and Texas A&M dominated and Will Hammond made Texas Tech's loss of Brendan Sorsby at least palatable.

With the Rangers down to the last three weeks, what else is there to discuss but what's in front of the Rangers? John and Evan break down the sprint to the finish and how the Rangers must break season-long trends to get to the playoffs. Then Rangers manager Skip Schumaker joins the fellas. And he's got a good case for Ezequiel Duran to finish in the top 10 of MVP voting. He is also living in the moment of the playoff race. John gets him to break down how big a TCU fan he's become now that his son Brody is a Horned Frog (and he's a really big TCU fan). And finally, Skip reveals just how difficult it is to deal with Evan on a daily basis, a story John has heard from managers too numerous to count over the years. Learn more about your ad choices.

Calvin says the Cowboys may yet bring back Milton, who lost the backup QB job to Sam Howell. Evan asks if either is really good enough if Dak Prescott goes down. Jacob deGrom's start Monday gives the Rangers hope he can still come up big in the September push, but Kevin's not buying. He asks why Rangers such as Evan Carter can't do what's asked of them. Bunt, hit behind the runner, take the extra base. If they're not going to hit, they've got to make up for it somewhere else. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
