00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club Cowboys. This is Cowboys

3
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 1: Storyline with Nick Eatman.

4
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:26,119
Speaker 2: What's up everyone, Welcome to Cowboys Storyline. It is Wednesday, June,

5
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 2: the fourth day is important in our household. It is

6
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 2: my daughter's birthday. So Camilla, my little sweet Camella, is

7
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:39,840
Speaker 2: turning five years old. Man, it's making me old or young,

8
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 2: one of the two are both at the same time.

9
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 2: I can tell you this, This is going to be

10
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,559
Speaker 2: a memorable birthday for her, for sure. All right, let's uh,

11
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 2: let's talk some Cowboys football. Another OTA practice, getting closer

12
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 2: to the mini camp next week, three day mandatory mini camp,

13
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 2: and uh, I guess Michael Parsons is going to be here.

14
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 2: He's made that clear. He's made a few things clear.

15
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 2: And the tweet that he sent out the other day,

16
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 2: and that the ball's not in his courts and Jerry's court.

17
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 2: I bet you, I bet you. Both sides kind of

18
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,919
Speaker 2: have their own opinions about that. But one way or another,

19
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 2: at least this is not the first or the last

20
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: of these negotiations. They'll get done. I think you know.

21
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: I give Mike a credit for being I mean, he's

22
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 2: he's still being here when he needs to be here,

23
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 2: and he was here yesterday. He did some things that

24
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 2: the Cowboys needed him to do from an internal standpoint.

25
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 2: As far as media responsibilities, he was there doing that.

26
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: He'll be at the mini camp apparently. And you know what,

27
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,119
Speaker 2: I think they call these the it a holdout, maybe

28
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: it's a hold in. He's not the first one to

29
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 2: do that last few years too. As far as wanting

30
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 2: a contract, not doing everything, And I don't think anyone's

31
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 2: too concerned about where he is and what he's doing.

32
00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 2: He seems to be mostly committed to what what's happening here,

33
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: and I think what it's really time to play, he'll

34
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 2: be here and it's time to practice in mandatory, he'll

35
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 2: he'll do what he needs to do, so she shouldn't

36
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 2: be a concern there. George Pickens had a pretty nice

37
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 2: practice yesterday. Looks good in his new uniform. Looks like

38
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 2: number three is going to be the number for him.

39
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: He made a switch with Dante Fowler. I talked to

40
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 2: him yesterday and Dante said that Pickens is gonna do

41
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 2: a little something for him. As far as you know,

42
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 2: maybe compensation do something as far as making that that trade.

43
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 2: But Fowler, he didn't seem to mind too much. And

44
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 2: he's kind of big on the Fowler of the thirteenth,

45
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 2: which I believe is coming up here this month. So he's, uh,

46
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 2: he's excited about the change. And then everybody wants these

47
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: low numbers, and I guess for Fowler, thirteen is low

48
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 2: enough there, all right? Eight eight eight eight FI five

49
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,959
Speaker 2: two two nine seven is the number to call. We'll

50
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 2: start out in California very early out there, Michael and Colton, California.

51
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 2: What's up?

52
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 3: What's going on? Everybody? Shout out to all the Caps

53
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 3: and shout out to you and thank you for taking

54
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,639
Speaker 3: my call. Hey, Nick, I just want to say, man,

55
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 3: I love what the Jones that are doing this offseason.

56
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 3: You know, I have no problem being critical when things

57
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 3: go on that I don't like, and at the same token,

58
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 3: you know, I like to give props where props are due,

59
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 3: you know, and I really love it.

60
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 4: You know.

61
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 3: I just one thing, man, I have some trust issues,

62
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 3: you know that. I'm really like, I love what they're doing.

63
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 3: I'm just like, I'm scared to drink the kool aid,

64
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 3: you know what. I mean, I'm like, man, they're gonna

65
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 3: let us down again in the playoffs. And I know

66
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 3: we're talking, you know, way down the line and everything,

67
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 3: but man, I would love to see our Cowboys at

68
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 3: least make a championship game, you know, at least advanced

69
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 3: a couple of rounds in the playoffs. And and I

70
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 3: just want to hear your thoughts on that, and I

71
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 3: want to see if you can talk me off that ledge,

72
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 3: you know. And I'll hang up and go ahead and listen,

73
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 3: and once again, thank you for taking my call. I'd

74
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 3: best you on have a great day.

75
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 2: Thanks, Michael, appreciate that. You know, I'm not talking anybody

76
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 2: off the off the ledges or anything like that. I

77
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 2: don't think that's where you are. I think you know

78
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: you you you've been there for a long time, and

79
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 2: you've seen a lot of you know, a lot of

80
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 2: off season moves and or maybe some some off seasons

81
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 2: whether it weren't enough moves. And but either one way

82
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 2: or another where where you know, the optimism is high,

83
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 2: everyone's excited about the team, and then next thing you know,

84
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 2: there's there's a big loss. I mean, nothing, in my

85
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 2: time here, nothing seemed seems to be as worse as

86
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: the as the Packers lost just a couple of years ago.

87
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 2: That that's the worst worst loss that I can remember,

88
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 2: because you just had so high of expectations and hopes

89
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 2: and and then you got your ass kicked by a

90
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 2: team that was very lucky to even be in the playoffs,

91
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 2: and they came in here and and dominated the game

92
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: from the very start. And so that was one of

93
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 2: the more demoralizing losses. So I get it. I mean,

94
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 2: why why everyone doesn't want to be too excited, But

95
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 2: I I just look at it a little differently. I

96
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 2: just think, I mean, you get excited about football season.

97
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 2: That's what I do. I mean, I'm not gonna say

98
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 2: I don't speak for anyone else, and we don't tell

99
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: anybody else. I't a fan. But for me, I just

100
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 2: get excited that it's football season. And I can relate

101
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 2: because my college team is very similar, well not very

102
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 2: similar as far as like Arkansas and the Cowboys is

103
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 2: not very similar because they don't have as much success.

104
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 2: But you know, for me, the expectations, I don't expect

105
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 2: them to be a competing at a high level. So

106
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 2: it's to me, it's kind of fun to see what

107
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 2: things are, But it doesn't matter what your expectations are.

108
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 2: It's football seasons getting there. We're getting closer, getting closer,

109
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 2: And what is happening with the team. Do you like

110
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 2: in some of the moves? And I think two or

111
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 2: three months ago, especially when the hire was made, there

112
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 2: just wasn't a lot of optimism at all. And now

113
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 2: Schottenheimer has turned some things around. He's impressing people, he's

114
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,559
Speaker 2: braced some eyebrows he's gotten and they've made some moves

115
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: to go along with that. They were pretty aggressive by

116
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: their standards in free free agency. They made They did

117
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 2: make some moves. They made some trades, but for trades

118
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: and then the biggest one of being being pickings. But

119
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,239
Speaker 2: when you look at this roster and you think, well,

120
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,919
Speaker 2: you know that they they've they've definitely filled some holes.

121
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 2: They've also you know, they're getting some guys back injury wise,

122
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 2: so you know it's it's one to look at and say,

123
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 2: you know, it's things go right. This team could be

124
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 2: a team that that's right there in the mix, but

125
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 2: certainly fun and and and I understand the hesitant nature

126
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 2: of well, I just don't know if this is going

127
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 2: to be the year no one knows, but I do

128
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 2: think I do think they've done enough to kind of

129
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 2: win the offseason, if that's a thing, And I think

130
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 2: they've done that all right, Jeremy Salt Lake Cities next.

131
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 5: Hey, what Nick?

132
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 2: How you doing?

133
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 6: I'm doing good.

134
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 5: I've been been a few weeks since I got to

135
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 5: talked to you before the sched came out. Yeah, you know,

136
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 5: as far as that last last exchange there, Yeah, I'm

137
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 5: I'm with you, dude. I'm just by the time rolls around,

138
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 5: I'm so excited for football period that I can't not

139
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 5: be excited excited for my favorite team. Even in the

140
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 5: Campo days when I knew, you know, it's gonna be

141
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 5: rough years, for some reason, I got excited about Peppi Zellner.

142
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 7: Right.

143
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 5: So, anyway, as far as the schedule goes, you know,

144
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 5: obviously I heard you talking the last week. I think

145
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 5: with somebody about first of all, the NFC East is

146
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 5: one of the first divisions of football, would you agree, Yeah, yeah,

147
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 5: it is now, and then the NF and then the

148
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 5: NFC North right right, and then when you look at

149
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 5: the AFC, probably the hardest division, especially this year now

150
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 5: with the Raiders getting Pete Carroll and gent And and

151
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 5: Gino and the AFC West. Right, So if we can

152
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 5: compete and do well, and I'm not saying run the

153
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 5: table or any of that kind of stuff, but if

154
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 5: we can get I think we're a better team than

155
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 5: we are last year, and we could have sports record

156
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 5: just because of the schedule. But if we get through

157
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 5: this schedule and make it to the playoffs, this team

158
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 5: will be battle tested and will be one of the

159
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 5: badass teams in the NFL. Think of it that way, right,

160
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 5: Every game you know that isn't a pushover, is iron

161
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 5: sharpen than iron, And you're gonna get better as you

162
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 5: go throughout the year. And we're not playing any I mean,

163
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 5: I think there's what maybe four games that no games

164
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 5: to give me, right, But there's four that we should

165
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 5: definitely win, right, But the rest of them, you know,

166
00:08:55,120 --> 00:09:00,080
Speaker 5: are kind of all up in the air. And I

167
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 5: think this team, by having a tougher schedule and having

168
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 5: to go through tougher divisions, you know, to a certain extent,

169
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 5: we're all going to beat up on each other. And

170
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 5: I think whoever comes out of this NFC East, especially

171
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 5: because we have to play the AFCU wes the NFC

172
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 5: North is going to be the best team in football. Yeah,

173
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 5: and that could be US. That could be US. I

174
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 5: think we you know, obviously we've got a few worries

175
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 5: of d tackle, right, and then maybe depth at corner

176
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 5: and stuff. But once our injured people over shown and

177
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 5: Diggs and all these guys start coming back in the

178
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 5: middle of the year, I think it's going to give

179
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 5: this team a boost and like I said, will be

180
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 5: battle tested if nothing else.

181
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 2: Right, right, all right, I like it. I like what

182
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: you're saying. What you're saying there, all right, Jeremy.

183
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 4: Let's talking to you.

184
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 2: Take care of man, Thanks a lot, you know. I

185
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 2: think there's something to be said for that, as you know,

186
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 2: getting to the playoffs and having you know, the journey

187
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 2: to get there that it seems like two years in

188
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 2: a row the Cowboys have, or really two out of

189
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 2: three years when they were in those three straight twelve

190
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 2: and five seasons. I guess it was twenty one and

191
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 2: then the twenty three where they faced the team that

192
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 2: just got in in the forty nine Ers, and then

193
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 2: a couple years later the Packers and that team. I

194
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 2: think this is kind of what Jeremy's talking about. It's

195
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: like you have to kind of fight and to get in.

196
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 2: You've been playing playoff type games before the playoffs actually start.

197
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 2: You're battle tested, as he said, and you're getting there.

198
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 2: And I think you know that there is something to

199
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 2: be said for that. And if the Cowboys are going

200
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 2: to make it to the playoffs off of this schedule,

201
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 2: then yeah, they're probably going to be playing some December

202
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 2: light playoff games there at the end of the season.

203
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 2: But you know, for me, when I look at the

204
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 2: schedule and I you know, there's you can dissect it

205
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 2: so many different ways, but you know, I think of

206
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 2: four games that are against teams that were really really good,

207
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 2: had good records last year, great records. So the Eagles

208
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 2: obviously he had place play him twice. It'll be the

209
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 2: toughest on the road, at the Lions, the Chiefs, and

210
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 2: then the Vikings at home. So those four games, and

211
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 2: I'm saying at the Eagles, which is the first one

212
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 2: of the year, of those four games, those are the

213
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 2: games that people are probably saying, wow, that's probably a loss.

214
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 2: That's a loss. Maybe the Vikings at home. You never know,

215
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 2: but you don't the Cowboys have to win these games,

216
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 2: not all of them, but they need to win some

217
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 2: of them. They need to win at least one. Beat

218
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 2: the Chiefs on Thanksgiving, beat the Eagles a week one,

219
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 2: go go a week later after Thanksgiving and go beat

220
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 2: the Lions. I mean, last year it was very evident

221
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 2: they were not anywhere close to the top teams in

222
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 2: the league. So playff teams. You know, there's a difference

223
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 2: between the guys that make the you know at seventh

224
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 2: and then that make it first or second. But one

225
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 2: way or another that you have to show that that

226
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 2: you can you can compete and you can win some

227
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,199
Speaker 2: of these games. And so that's what I'm looking at is, yeah,

228
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 2: you can go all day long and say, well they

229
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 2: better beat the Broncos, they better meat the Cardinals, better

230
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 2: with the Raiders. All that, yes, but one of these

231
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 2: games they're going to have to win. They're going to

232
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 2: have to go beat the one of these elite teams.

233
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 2: And who knows if they are going to be on

234
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 2: that same level this year. But I think the Cowboys,

235
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 2: you know, you can't just because there's so many great teams.

236
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 2: You can't just get by beating the teams you're supposed

237
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 2: to beat. Because if you look at this this schedule,

238
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 2: they're probably not supposed to beat most of them, so

239
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 2: they're going to have to kind of prove that and

240
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 2: then and that starts right off the bat against the Eagles.

241
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Brian in Kansas City.

242
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 8: Brian, what's up, Good morning, mister Eatman.

243
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 2: How you doing.

244
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 7: I'm doing good, man, I'm doing good.

245
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 9: You know, everybody's talked about the schedule since it came

246
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 9: out and that it doesn't look like third place schedule, right,

247
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 9: it looks really difficult, and you kind of explain, Hey,

248
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 9: you know that third place finish only.

249
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 10: Affects a couple of games, right. All the other stuff

250
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 10: has to do with we just happened to be playing

251
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 10: AFC North in the AFC West this year, and you

252
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 10: know that was set long ago, long before anything had

253
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 10: to do with our schedule.

254
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 7: We do.

255
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 10: We have a really, really tough schedule, and you know,

256
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 10: no question about that. I agree with that caller. But

257
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 10: you know, I watched I rewatched the twenty eighteen playoff

258
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 10: game against the Seahawks, and I picked that game to rewatch,

259
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 10: and I had thought about it before because guess who

260
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,839
Speaker 10: was the offensive coordinator at the time, yep Shott. He

261
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 10: was their offensive coordinator. So and they didn't have a

262
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 10: great game that game, but they were in the playoffs.

263
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 10: And one of the things I had forgotten this is

264
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 10: this is without beast mode. This is this is they

265
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 10: had a guy Carson was there was their primary running back.

266
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 10: At the time. They led the league in rushing. So,

267
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 10: you know, one of the things we heard when he

268
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 10: took over is, you know, we're going to emphasize the

269
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 10: running game. Where you know, they brought in the coaches

270
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 10: that seemed to indicate that, you know, a bunch of

271
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 10: offensive lineman coach guys that are you know, let's run

272
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 10: the ball. So I had forgotten that they were that

273
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 10: much of a running team that year. They they averaged

274
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 10: one hundred and sixty yards a game and they didn't

275
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 10: have beast mode. Yeah, so that really gives me some

276
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 10: hope that, hey, you know what, if you give them

277
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 10: somebody you know who's competent.

278
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 2: I can't remember their receivers. Was it I know Lockett

279
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 2: was there, but was.

280
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 10: It Lockett was? I don't remember who the other it

281
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 10: was not. It was not a big name guy, but

282
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 10: Lockett was the primary guy. They didn't have a real

283
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 10: top name tight end either you know it was you know,

284
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 10: but still Lockett a good receiver. And at the time,

285
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 10: coming into that game, Wilson was eight and four in

286
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 10: the playoffs. He was he was a top tier quarterback. Still, yeah,

287
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 10: you know, he was a good So I just gave

288
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 10: you a lot of hope about that. And I think

289
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 10: for my question this week, I think I just want

290
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 10: to know, because obviously you've been to you were at

291
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 10: that game, what.

292
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 8: Memories do you have of that game?

293
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 10: Then I'll hang up and listen. Good to talk to you.

294
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 2: All right, thanks. I only have one I mean, and

295
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 2: it's one of the greatest plays in Cowboys history. We

296
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 2: did a list not too long ago about greatest non

297
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 2: touchdowns in Cowboys history. You know, there's some great plays

298
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 2: that weren't exactly touchdowns, and I'm pretty sure Dak's flip

299
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 2: right right there near the goal line. It was if

300
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 2: memory serves, it's third and twelve or something like that,

301
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 2: from the from the fourteen yard line or thirteen yard line,

302
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 2: and he goes up the middle and does a flip

303
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 2: and gets to the one and gets first down. And

304
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 2: that that was a huge play because it not only

305
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 2: gave the first down, but you know, took a lot

306
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 2: more time off the clock. They ended up scoring, I think,

307
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 2: to take a two score lead, and then Seattle did

308
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 2: come back and scored a late touchdown, but I don't

309
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 2: think it mattered. I probably had to get an on

310
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 2: site kick. But I remember that play by Dak and

311
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 2: it was Deck's first playoff win, and you know, it

312
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 2: kind of got the monkey off its back a little bit.

313
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 2: But but that that play was a really big play

314
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 2: because it was a football play. You know, It's just

315
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 2: it's just a guy playing football. And that's when I

316
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 2: think Dak is at his best when he's not a

317
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 2: quarterback playing. You know, he's just a football player that

318
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 2: plays quarterback. And and I'm that's just the way I've

319
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 2: always described certain players I've always saw. Walter Payton was

320
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 2: a football player playing running back. Brett Farves was a

321
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 2: football player, plays the position, plays quarterback. And you know,

322
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 2: when Dak is doing that, you know, then now you

323
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 2: have to be the quarterback. I'm not saying you know,

324
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 2: you don't. You just have to go out there and

325
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 2: wing it. But but that was just, hey, there's the

326
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 2: first down. I'm here, I've got to go get this

327
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna do whatever it takes. And you know,

328
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 2: when he's when he's playing like that, then then I

329
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 2: think that he's a much better football player. And I'd

330
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 2: like to see a little bit more of that. And

331
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 2: I don't know if you have to flip like that

332
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 2: and do make those kind of plays, but you do

333
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 2: have to kind of go be a player, and and

334
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 2: he he can do that, and I still think he's

335
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 2: got that in him. All right, let's go to Dylan Northport, Florida. Good,

336
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 2: how are you doing?

337
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 4: Hey?

338
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:32,880
Speaker 11: All right, happy birthday, Camilla.

339
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: Thank you, thanks for saying that.

340
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's a good age exciting times.

341
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know about good or anything

342
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 2: as exciting, but it's it's definitely something that's something she's

343
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 2: she's got.

344
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 11: To I've got a four in a six. Yeah, yeah,

345
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:50,360
Speaker 11: I get it.

346
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 2: Yeah for sure.

347
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 11: Before I ask my question, I was going to say, boy,

348
00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 11: how do the people in the chat that are I

349
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 11: think that the biggest problem with this team is Dak Prescott.

350
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 11: I don't know what to say. I know we want

351
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 11: to tell people how to fan, but you know, go

352
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,919
Speaker 11: turn on some tape, go pay for the All twenty two.

353
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 11: It's a hundred bucks a year. Go pay for that

354
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 11: and go watch some of the routes, the strolling interceptions

355
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 11: on not saying Dak's without faults, but my god, to

356
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 11: place the entire franchise on back when there's clearly other

357
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 11: issues going on Dick gets me going a little bit

358
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:23,679
Speaker 11: and it's a little bit frustrating.

359
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 8: Yeah, but that's.

360
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 4: Not my question.

361
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 11: Just putting that out there.

362
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 4: My question for.

363
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 11: You, And I put this on the Twitter page the

364
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 11: other day, between Tyler Geiton and Mazzie Smith. Which one

365
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 11: do you think the Cowboys need to step up more

366
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 11: this year? What's more instrumental to their success?

367
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 2: Well, I mean Tyler Goeydon you know, like like I

368
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 2: think it's it's without a doubt it's Tyler Geyiton. And

369
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 2: the reason for that is because of you know, when

370
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 2: when if it doesn't go well, the guy you're talking about,

371
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 2: Dak Prescott, I mean, he feels it. You know, you

372
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 2: may not see it, but he'll deal feel it because

373
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 2: he's you know, he's he's guarding the blind side there.

374
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 2: So I think it's it's Tyler Guidon for sure. When

375
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 2: you look at the supporting cast around the line and

376
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 2: you look at the sporting cast around Mazi. You got

377
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 2: Osa there, you got you know, you drafted some players.

378
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 2: Of course you have Micah, But when you think about

379
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 2: that offensive line, they have to have their left tackle,

380
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,360
Speaker 2: uh be a good player. Now he's he's sitting next

381
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 2: to Tyler Smith. There's no doubt about that. But but

382
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 2: he he can make the tight ends better if they

383
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 2: don't have to stay in and help. And so I

384
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 2: just think it's Tyler Guyden for sure.

385
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 11: Yeah, on the flips that I have a different opinion

386
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 11: on that.

387
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 3: All right, on the.

388
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 11: Flip side, you can help Tyler Guidon And you don't

389
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 11: want to write with the tight ends like you just said,

390
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 11: you want them to go out, but you do have

391
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 11: the option to help Tyler Guiton.

392
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 7: You know.

393
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,680
Speaker 11: The issue with the one technique is you can't really

394
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 11: you can't really help them. Like he's the guy that

395
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 11: helps other people. He helps the linebackers. And the Cowboys

396
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 11: have done a great job and taking one of these

397
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 11: holes they have this off season and turning them into

398
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 11: question marks. Like right now the linebackers are question marks.

399
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 11: They could be good, could not be good. Like Murray's underperformed,

400
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,959
Speaker 11: but he has a highest ceiling Sanborn. We don't really

401
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 11: know what to expect his floor and ceiling, but he

402
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 11: could be good. But those guys are not going to

403
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 11: be good if they have offensive linemen in their lap

404
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 11: every single play. I know that free techniques are more

405
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 11: important in Eberflus's system and one techniques, but at the

406
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 11: same time, you know you can't let them lineman get

407
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 11: to the second level all game long. And I don't

408
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 11: want to sit on my couch again this season and

409
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 11: watch teams running for two thirty, two fifty and just

410
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 11: sit there defeated and miserable. So that's not a fun

411
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 11: way to spend a Sunday. Yeah, so you know, I

412
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 11: agree with you and everything you said about Tyler guy,

413
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 11: and I don't think there's a wrong answer on this

414
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 11: when the responses on Twitter were like, fifty fifty is

415
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 11: plit down the middle? Yeah, but you know, I'm just

416
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 11: worried about teams running the ball against us again all

417
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,679
Speaker 11: season and I don't know if we've made enough adjustments

418
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 11: on the roster to really fix that problem. Although other

419
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 11: than just maybe Eberflus can bring something different with some

420
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,719
Speaker 11: of these edges and interior guys like oh said these

421
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 11: three techniques to do something different than we've seen in

422
00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 11: the past.

423
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 2: Right, and that you can said that on the other

424
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 2: side too, you know, because they haven't done a whole

425
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 2: lot of offensive tackle as far as you know, saying, well,

426
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 2: this guy will compete with with Geydon and so you

427
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 2: just like you're thinking, maybe Eberflus can kind of help that. Well,

428
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 2: maybe you know the the scheme of you know, Clayton

429
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 2: Adams and you know, you know Connor Riley as the

430
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 2: O line coach, and they can do some things differently

431
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 2: to kind of help their their linement there. But you know,

432
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 2: I think, I think and Mazzi both have have been

433
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 2: have had really good off seasons. Again, that doesn't always

434
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 2: translate to the to the field, but sometimes it does.

435
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 2: I mean, like I've seen it happen a lot. So

436
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 2: we'll see if they if they make that that jump.

437
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 2: You know, we wanted Mazi to make that year to

438
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 2: jump and okay, he did, but it was he was

439
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 2: pretty far down there, you know. And we'll see if

440
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 2: Geydon can can make it as well. So both of

441
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 2: them didn't have great rookie seasons, say the least, we'll

442
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 2: see if they can turn it around. But you're you're

443
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 2: absolutely right. I mean the answers both. I mean that

444
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 2: they need both. They need with their first round picks

445
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 2: from the last two seasons to to act like it.

446
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 2: And that's that's so. I don't think it's asking too

447
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 2: much to say both of them needed to step it up.

448
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 11: Yeah, this is make or break form Ozzie at this point. Yeah,

449
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 11: Guiden probably has a little bit longer of a leash.

450
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 11: But if he's as bad as last season, which I

451
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 11: don't think he will be, it sounds like he's moving

452
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 11: in the right direction. But we can't have another season

453
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 11: like last year. He was getting replaced by tou Many

454
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 11: Delica for of all people, So hopefully they both come through.

455
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 2: All right, thanks Land, appreciate the call. All right, let's

456
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:36,479
Speaker 2: go to Michael and Bowling Green. Michael, what's up man?

457
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 12: Are you pretty good?

458
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 2: Okay?

459
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 12: So, first of all, you gotta tell that order happy

460
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:53,120
Speaker 12: birthday from all the storyline people wishing her happy birthday.

461

462
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 2: a birthday week. I mean, she's been celebrating for a

463
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 2: while here, so oh yeah, that's just that's how it goes.

464

Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and.

465
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 12: So I ain't scared. I ain't scared to be optimistic.

466
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 12: I'm ready to go. I'm like I said, fourteen to three.

467
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 12: I'm gonna stand by that until they so they either

468
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,400
Speaker 12: you know, make it or they lost more than three.

469
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 12: And I just got a question, Okay, I got a

470
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 12: scenario I'm wondering about from you. All right, Let's say

471
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 12: the first game of the season, the Cowboys beat the Eagle.

472
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 11: Okay, all right, for the.

473
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:43,879
Speaker 12: Help and the mental and everything for the next sixteen

474
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 12: to nineteen games, would you rather them be the Eagles

475
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 12: by say sevent to ten points. Would you rather them

476
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 12: blow the Eagles out? Or would you rather them be

477
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 12: the Eagles for the last second sixty two yards field

478
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 12: goal to win the game.

479
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 2: Hmm, Well, I I and I know it's going to happen.

480
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 2: I mean, I'll take a you know, I'll say this,

481
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 2: The plane right home is gonna feel the same either way.

482
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 2: I promise you that. And I've I've experienced that over

483
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 2: the over the time, so that that is cool. All

484
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 2: three scenarios are great, you know, for my heart, I'll

485
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,879
Speaker 2: take a blowout over the Eagles. I'll take that just

486
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 2: because the other ones, you know, I don't want to

487
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 2: know if I want to deal with a sixty two

488
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 2: yard er. Sure would be nice to see how quiet

489
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 2: that would be. But when you're down there at the

490
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 2: end of the game, you got to deal with that crap.

491
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 2: You got to deal with those fans, and so if

492
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,199
Speaker 2: you're blowing them out, half of them are gone. So

493
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 2: I'll take that. I'll take a blow out over the Eagles.

494
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 2: But either they all they all sound fun. You know,

495
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 2: if those are my three, if those are my only

496
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 2: three options, then this it seems like it would be

497
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 2: a fun night one way or another. What about you,

498
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:08,640
Speaker 2: what's your pick?

499
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:13,160
Speaker 12: I would like the sixty two yards field goal. Yeah,

500
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:18,360
Speaker 12: we're down one or two and we can only make

501
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 12: it to just not quite midfield and comes out there

502
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 12: sixty two yards just just just drops over the cross.

503
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,880
Speaker 2: It would be it definitely would be memorable. Put your

504
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 2: helmet on for all players when you're running out, I

505
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 2: put your helmet on, because that would be They would

506
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:46,360
Speaker 2: piss off those those drunk Eagle fans for sure. But hey,

507
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 2: that would be a cool scenario, and I think he

508
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 2: could do it. I think he could definitely make it.

509
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 2: But you know, if you give me those three. I'd

510
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 2: like them, you know, I'd like to see Joe Milton

511
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 2: handing the ball off there in the fourth quarter. Yeah,

512

Speaker 6: years old. There's about the age they start realizing they're

563
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 6: the smartest person in the room.

564
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 2: I thought it was. I thought fifteen was the number,

565
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 2: but it has gone down as the years have gone

566
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 2: on the internet, cell phones and stuff. At five. Yeah, yeah,

567
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 2: very much so.

568
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, mister Nick, was gonna talk some running backs today.

569
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 6: You know, you got like, as far as I know,

570
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 6: six people in the room with the two free agents,

571
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 6: Javonte Sanders, two draft these Blue and MafA, and then

572
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 6: you got lip Key and Deuce and there could be

573
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 6: someone else that I don't know about. But let me

574
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 6: just put this way. Let's say, at the whenever we're

575
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 6: starting out, who do you believe will be the ones

576
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 6: out there on the field? Or better yet, I could

577
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 6: ask who do you think will be the odd man

578
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 6: out or odd men out?

579
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good question. I mean, before I'll answer

580
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 2: it offline, I'll flip it around to you, who do

581
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 2: you think is going to be the leader?

582
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 6: Okay? At the end of it, man, oh man, I'm

583
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 6: thinking Okay, I think they have a plan for Blue,

584
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 6: so I think he's going to be there, yea. And

585
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 6: I kind of do with the other rookie too, So

586
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 6: with me, it's a matter of do they start out

587
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 6: young and run those two or do they go with

588
00:29:55,880 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 6: like the Javante and Miles thing. I think. I hate

589
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 6: to say this, but I kind of think Miles Induce

590
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 6: could be the ones that yeah, could be getting getting chopped.

591
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 6: But I hate to say that without any knowledge about it.

592
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 6: But so I don't know. Let's go with the let's

593
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 6: go with the rookies. Let's let them get in there

594
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 6: and go, yeah.

595
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 2: MafA and Blue and then and then you know, one

596
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 2: of them between Javonte and Miles Sanders. I just kind

597
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 2: of feel exactly. I feel like they're both gonna make it,

598
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 2: Miles and Uh and Javonte Williams. And for me, I

599
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 2: think I'm I'm going against the grain by most people,

600
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 2: but I kind of think it's going to be Miles Sanders.

601
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 2: I think he is probably the better of the two backs,

602
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,959
Speaker 2: but I think they both do something a little bit different.

603
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 2: And so the wild card here is MafA. If Blue

604
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 2: is gonna make the team, MafA is the one that

605
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 2: if he comes in and does some really nice things

606
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 2: in the preseason and says, you know, we got to

607
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 2: keep this guy, that's going to put pressure on one

608
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,719
Speaker 2: of those veterans Javonte and Miles. But if he doesn't

609
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 2: really take the lead there and then you can go

610
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 2: with Blue as your rookie, then they both make it.

611
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 2: But MafA to me is the.

612
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 6: Wild card, right, Maybe he could, I don't know. Blue

613
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 6: doesn't doesn't make it to practice.

614
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 8: Squad, but maybe MafA could.

615
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 2: Maybe depends on what happens in those preseason games and

616
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 2: what he looks like and on that. But yeah, Jayden Blue,

617
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 2: I mean, and if Jaydon Blue hangs onto the football

618
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 2: and can can pass block, you know, well enough to

619
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 2: be trusted out there. If he can hang onto the

620
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 2: ball and be a nice, you know guy to catch

621
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 2: the ball out of the backfield, then he could even start.

622
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 2: You know. I think that that was the knock on him,

623
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 2: was just the fumbling. But if that's not as much

624
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 2: of an issue and he can be the dynamic runner,

625
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 2: then he has a chance to start over over those

626
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 2: two guys right on.

627
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 11: Man.

628
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 6: Well, Nick, I appreciate that information because that got me

629
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 6: with Miles. Yeah, I guess he's Look yeah, I.

630
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 2: Mean I think he had a pretty good practice last

631
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 2: two practices, and I just you know, he's he's done it.

632
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 2: He's done it. He's been in the Pro Bowl. I mean,

633
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 2: he's had a thousand yard season. That doesn't mean a

634
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 2: lot for running backs because when it's over, it's over

635
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 2: for them. I mean, it's it's a short window for

636
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 2: them to be successful. But I just I liked what

637
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 2: I saw from him the other day. It's hard, though,

638
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 2: with running backs. It's hard to figure out you know,

639
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 2: who's who's gonna be, what who's gonna do. You know

640
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 2: that they they know what their assignments are and then

641
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 2: they know the quickness, speed and burst and all that.

642
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 2: But you know, just from the outside, they they take

643
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 2: every run to the house. You know, they don't get hit.

644
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 2: So it's it's it is kind of hard to see,

645
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 2: you know, is this is this a guy that you know?

646
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 2: Because breaking tackles is the big thing. So when you

647
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 2: see a guy catch the ball out of the backfield

648
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 2: and here comes the linebacker, and the linebacker, you know,

649
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 2: he starts screaming like, ooh, I got you and all that.

650
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 2: I mean, who's to know what's going to happen until

651
00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,719
Speaker 2: the Pats come on and it's live and all that.

652
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 2: So that's when the best running backs are the ones

653
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 2: that could get you know, take those three yard games

654
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 2: and make it a seven yard game and that changes

655
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 2: the entire play, maybe even the drive. So we'll see

656
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 2: what happens. I think they they're probably both gonna make it,

657
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 2: Davante and Miles Sanders. But it's a good problem to have,

658
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 2: especially if if MafA kind of does his thing and

659
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 2: and shows, you know, the ability to be a violent runner.

660
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Lester and Minnesota.

661
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 6: Good morning.

662
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 3: Next.

663
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 4: How's it going man?

664
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:31,960
Speaker 17: Man?

665
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 2: How are you doing?

666
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 4: Hey, I'm doing good up here in Minnesota. Hey, I mean,

667
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 4: I know you guys are there. How's how's the practices going,

668
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 4: especially with my offensive and defensive line or they looking

669
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 4: like out there? I know they're not being hit and

670
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 4: all that, but what's your acception of it. Defensive line, yeah, yeah,

671
00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 4: and the offensive line.

672
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 2: Both lines? Yeah, what you're looking like, Well, it's it's

673
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 2: for defense. It's looking like just a healthy rotation. I mean,

674
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 2: just there's just a lot of guys. Uh, it'll weaed

675
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 2: itself out and I'm sure they'll the cream will rise

676
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 2: to the to the top, you know. But but uh,

677
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 2: I think for right now, it looks like they you know,

678
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 2: they're having a lot of options for the defensive line

679
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 2: and then the offensive line that they're moving. They're moving

680
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 2: guys around as well. It's hard to kind of get

681
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 2: a gauge on where some of these players are going

682
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:32,279
Speaker 2: to be. Bb Hoffman, Rob Jones, Awesome Richards. You know,

683
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 2: they're they're they're trying to put them in different positions

684
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 2: because that's what happens in a game. I mean, you

685
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 2: got to see who can who can play what. So

686
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,919
Speaker 2: not easy to tell right now. They're not hitting each other,

687
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 2: but but you can tell there's a lot of rotations.

688
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 4: All right. Well, basically they say that Shotty wants to

689
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 4: run the ball. I think that's the probably the best option.

690
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 4: I mean, of course, we got to pass the ball.

691
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not saying on the all I'm just

692
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 4: saying again, especially the competition we're playing this year, man, Man,

693
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 4: we need to keep Dak upright and healthy. So to me,

694
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 4: in my opinion, the best way to do that is

695
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:18,319
Speaker 4: to run the ball a lot, right. And you know,

696
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 4: of course, if they're going to crowd the line, of course,

697
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:26,480
Speaker 4: throw the ball or whatever Dyck sees reading the defense,

698
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 4: if he sees.

699
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 8: Something, throw the ball.

700
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,800
Speaker 4: But I'm just saying I believe the foundation of our team,

701
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 4: our offense this year, should be running the ball because,

702
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 4: like I said, that'll keep the you know, people like

703
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 4: the Kansas City quarterback off the field if we're running

704
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 4: the ball. So that's all I got today, Man, run

705
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 4: that ball, all right, all right, Nick Man, I talk

706
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 4: to you next week, man, Cowboys, all.

707
00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 2: Right, appreciate that. You know, Brian and Kansas City had

708
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:04,759
Speaker 2: had that that stat earlier about the twenty eighteen Seahawks

709
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 2: and how they didn't have a lot of dynamic players,

710
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,439
Speaker 2: and but yeah, they still found a way to run

711
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 2: the football and they made it obviously made it to

712
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 2: the playoffs, and you know that was kind of their

713
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 2: foundation of success that year. And I think that that

714
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,359
Speaker 2: could sort of happen with the Cowboys. I mean, I think,

715
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 2: you know, that's why I just have a feeling that

716
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 2: they're both going to When I say Miles Sanders, Davonte Williams,

717
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,720
Speaker 2: and Jayden Blue, I mean there's not a dynamic runner,

718
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 2: but there's there's well I say that now we'll see

719
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,400
Speaker 2: if Jayden Blue becomes that. But you know, he's a

720
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 2: fifth round pick. I mean he gets scouted like everybody else,

721
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 2: and and you know, obviously the speed and the pass

722
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 2: catching ability is one thing, but you know, maybe the

723
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 2: lack of size and and also you know, just some

724
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 2: of the fumbling issues. He wasn't like the main starter

725
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 2: for for Texas, but when he got in and he's

726
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 2: used of that, he's used to that kind of rule.

727
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,359
Speaker 2: So I think he's gonna fit in nicely of just

728
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 2: coming in and when it's your time, go go shine.

729
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 2: But I think because running the ball is so important

730
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 2: and they don't have that bell cow runner, I think

731
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 2: that they're going to probably keep three there and one week,

732
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,000
Speaker 2: you know, you'll see a little bit more of Williams,

733
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,359
Speaker 2: maybe morph Sanders, and you know, in another week they'll

734
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 2: be split right down the middle. But I think that

735
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 2: they'll probably play the hot hand when it comes to

736
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 2: the running back position because they don't have that that

737
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:35,879
Speaker 2: stud and it is a priority. But still we'll we'll,

738
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 2: we'll see. I mean, I like what they did. If

739
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,839
Speaker 2: they get it blocked up front, then they should be

740
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:48,359
Speaker 2: they should be fun, all right. Next color is Robin Vaas. Hey, Nick, Hey, Rob,

741
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 2: Oh good man, how are you doing.

742
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:54,280
Speaker 4: I'm good good.

743
00:37:56,640 --> 00:38:00,280
Speaker 18: I have to address a couple of little cold So Dylan, uh,

744
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 18: you know, asked who's more important Mazia a guy, and

745
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 18: I agree with you. It's it's guiding. Because we've seen

746
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 18: when the left tackle doesn't play good or Dak doesn't

747
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,439
Speaker 18: trust them, he doesn't play good, right right, So that's

748
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 18: to me, that's that's simple. And I and I think,

749
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,759
Speaker 18: I don't think. I think they're going to pick up somebody.

750
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:22,280
Speaker 18: You know, somebody's gonna get cut now, so post June first,

751
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,439
Speaker 18: and I think they're going to pick up a big

752
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 18: fatty in the middle there. I don't think they're just

753
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 18: rolling at Mazi. I'm hearing. I'm hearing. You know these

754
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 18: callers say, oh, and he asked. You know, there are

755
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 18: certain people that the biggest concern is Dak and that's

756
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:46,319
Speaker 18: my biggest concern. And it's not because Dak is a

757
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,719
Speaker 18: good quarterback. He's a to me, he's a top ten

758
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 18: He's not seventeenth like whoever ranked him that I mean,

759
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 18: and they had Gino Casino ahead of him. I mean,

760
00:38:55,560 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 18: that's crazy. But he's the most important player on the team.

761
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 18: So if he doesn't play good, you can't win. If

762
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 18: he gets hurt like he has been, you can't win.

763
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 18: So he is my biggest concern, and I need him

764
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,919
Speaker 18: to play better against better teams. He struggled, So he's

765
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 18: my biggest concern. Listening to people talk about how this

766
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,360
Speaker 18: the Cowboys have to become a great running team. They

767
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 18: got to become a running absolutely not you have a

768
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 18: top three wide receiver. I just said, a top ten quarterback.

769
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 18: You just brought in Pickens. You're hoping your tight end.

770
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 18: I don't need them to be a great running team.

771
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 18: I need them to be a good running team. Get

772
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:43,799
Speaker 18: me more than two yards on first down. You know,

773
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,840
Speaker 18: get us in third and five, third and four and

774
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,799
Speaker 18: set at third and seven. That's what took place last year.

775
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,479
Speaker 18: This team is still going to be a passing team.

776
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 18: They'd be stupid not to because that's what they do best.

777
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 18: And I just like I said, I don't need them

778
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 18: to grind out two hundred yards a game. It wouldn't

779
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 18: happen anyway. And I just need them to be good.

780
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,320
Speaker 18: I need them to be efficient. And I think Jaden

781
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 18: Blue is the guy I want on the field more

782
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 18: than the others because he has the juice. Yeah, you know,

783
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 18: the other players, I don't, I don't. I think the

784
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 18: running backs are better this year than one last year

785
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 18: because they're proving proven backs. Who's going to be on

786
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 18: the team, who's going to start? I don't know. But

787
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,919
Speaker 18: I think Jaden Blue is the guy that I want

788
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 18: to see on the field just because he could take it.

789
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 18: He could take it to the house.

790
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you're you're right. I think you know

791
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 2: they're not going to be a great running team. But

792
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,720
Speaker 2: if they if the offense, the the weapons you're talking about,

793
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,919
Speaker 2: do you know, play up to the expectations, then they're

794
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,879
Speaker 2: going to have the lead in certain games, and they

795
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 2: then if you could run it efficiently, then you know,

796
00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 2: you will you will probably have you could be a

797
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 2: good running team with great running stats because of you know,

798
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,240
Speaker 2: and I think you could say that in the nineties,

799
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 2: that's what the Cowboys were. And yeah, they were a

800
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 2: great running team, but their stats were even better than

801
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 2: that because they were able to run a lot and

802
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:15,840
Speaker 2: that's because of their entire offense.

803
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 18: So and I mean, that's that's what they I want

804
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,320
Speaker 18: to see if it's if we've been running the ball

805
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 18: successful and it's third and two, run the ball, you know,

806
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 18: then you know. What I didn't like is when we

807
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 18: would get eight yards on first down and then Mike

808
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 18: mccauthy decided to throw, just throw, throw throw. We see

809
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 18: it so many times that I want to get away from.

810
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,400
Speaker 18: So last week I didn't get a chance to call in,

811
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:47,760
Speaker 18: but I heard a call call me out for Lawrence

812
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:48,799
Speaker 18: Taylor being my.

813
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 6: Favorite football player.

814
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 2: Is that what you said?

815
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 18: No, No, Lawrence Taylor is the greatest defensive player that

816
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 18: ever lived. And growing up in New York when I

817
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 18: was in high school, I wore number fifty six because

818
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 18: I played linebacker. Because of Lawrence Taylor. Lawrence Taylor was great,

819
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 18: and to be honest, it was early eighties, eighty two,

820
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,720
Speaker 18: the Cowboys were eighty three eight four. The Cowboys were bad,

821
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 18: and Lawrence Taylor was just the man. But my two

822
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 18: favorite Cowboys are Roger Starback because how I became a

823
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 18: Cowboy fan as my father bought me my first uniform

824
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 18: and it was it was the Cowboys. It was Roger Starback.

825
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 18: I was five years old and I had I didn't

826
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 18: even know who he was. I wanted Joe name it,

827
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 18: but it was nineteen seventy two and everybody wanted Joe

828
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 18: name it. But I needed a uniform to go play,

829
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 18: and NAOI had Roger. And my father says, that's Roger Starback.

830
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 18: And that's why I'm a Cowboys fan. And Roger was

831
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 18: my favorite. And then when I was in my early twenties, EMMITTT.

832
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 18: Smith was my favorite because he he was the man.

833
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 18: He was the the most important Dallas Cowboy in the

834
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,400
Speaker 18: for the nineties teams and they just posted something on

835
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,840
Speaker 18: a Facebook or something saying, who's the greatest running is

836
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 18: Emmitt the greatest? And Emmett is the greatest running back.

837
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:16,439
Speaker 18: I always said Barry Sanders was the greatest runner I've

838
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 18: ever seen. But Emmett did everything and he never left

839
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:25,760
Speaker 18: the field. He blocked, he could catch, he could short yardage.

840
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 18: Barry could not. Barry could not do short yardage.

841
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 8: He was a.

842
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 18: Liability blocking and he didn't catch the ball very well. Emmett,

843
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 18: to me, is the greatest all around running back that

844
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:38,680
Speaker 18: I ever saw.

845
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:43,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, now I don't disagree with that. I mean EMMITTT.

846
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:47,319
Speaker 2: You know, you said when he never came off the field.

847
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,319
Speaker 2: When they when he was injured, they weren't the same.

848
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,400
Speaker 2: They could win with backup quarterbacks. Berlin won some games

849
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,480
Speaker 2: and Steve Wolfs won games all that they couldn't win

850
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:59,279
Speaker 2: without Emmett. They just couldn't. And the Garrett yeah, GARYT. Yeah,

851
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 2: of course. But but and no disrespect to that, you know,

852
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:04,880
Speaker 2: because when I look at that offensive line, you look

853
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,480
Speaker 2: at those offensive lines and compare which line was better

854
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,919
Speaker 2: as great as the old line was. And people always say, well,

855
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 2: Barry saying it, anyone could have run. They didn't those teams,

856
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 2: those guys didn't run behind them when the backup Sherman

857
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 2: Williams and Derek Lassek and those guys. So yeah, I'm

858
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,480
Speaker 2: with you. I think it gets a little EASi the

859
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 2: all time leading rusher. I think he's underrated, if that's

860
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,880
Speaker 2: even a thing, because you're right, I don't think. I

861
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,240
Speaker 2: don't think people throw in his ability to be durable

862
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,439
Speaker 2: and to be out there every single you know, year,

863
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 2: for that long. I mean, that's why his record probably

864
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 2: will never be broken. I mean, and even if they

865
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 2: go eighteen game schedule, it's gonna be hard to break

866
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 2: that record because these runner backs just don't last as long.

867
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 18: And they don't and there's no belcal running backs really anymore.

868
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:49,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, uh, and they don't.

869
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 18: Let's say that, they don't run the ball.

870
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 11: Don't like that, you know, like they did back then.

871
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 18: But yeah, it was the man.

872
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, thanks for the call, Robin, And that's good.

873
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 2: I didn't know that story about about Roger Strawback and

874
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,319
Speaker 2: all you ask. You know, we we've done polls on

875
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:07,719
Speaker 2: the greatest Cowboys of all time, top fifty, top sixty lists,

876
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 2: and you know it's it's they're one two right there.

877
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,440
Speaker 2: It depends kind of depends on how old you are,

878
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:16,359
Speaker 2: I guess a little bit. But Strawback and emit one

879
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:19,400
Speaker 2: and two. Some people may say, Bob Lily, but the

880
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,600
Speaker 2: greatest Cowboys of all time. I mean it's usually those

881
00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,840
Speaker 2: two and for me and probably because he old I am,

882
00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:26,520
Speaker 2: I'll say m A Smith. I mean, just for that

883
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 2: reason that Rob said, so Rob, we're agreeing a little

884
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 2: bit today. I don't know if that's a good or

885
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,520
Speaker 2: bad thing. It's always good. Let's go to Casey Joe

886
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 2: as our next caller.

887
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 19: Casey, He's good morning, Nick. How are you doing today, sir?

888
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:42,080
Speaker 12: How are you good?

889
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:47,000
Speaker 19: I was thinking about our offense with that speed coming in,

890
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:51,439
Speaker 19: with the wide receivers blue in the backfield. I'm just thinking, man,

891
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 19: the offense could look really good this year.

892
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 2: But could it really could? I mean, there's some things

893
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 2: that have to go right, but that's the way it

894
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:02,640
Speaker 2: is every year. But yeah, yeah, I mean if there's

895
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:04,840
Speaker 2: always there needs to be a couple of guys that

896
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,400
Speaker 2: are these swing players. Can they take it to the

897
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,840
Speaker 2: do they make that leap and always, you know, like

898
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,720
Speaker 2: Doron Bland did on the other side, like Jake Ferguson

899
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 2: did a couple of years ago. Who's gonna make that

900
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 2: leap that you think is a good player that actually

901
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:21,359
Speaker 2: became a great player, And if they can get two

902
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 2: or three of those. Then I think this team has

903
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,040
Speaker 2: a chance to be to be really good too.

904
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 7: I do.

905
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:29,399
Speaker 4: Yeah.

906
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 19: Well, I didn't have much to say, but I just

907
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 19: thought i'd say good morning.

908
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 8: And okay and.

909
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,319
Speaker 19: Oh and uh, you know, I think they should change

910
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 19: the name of the girls talk boys talk to hanging

911
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:40,720
Speaker 19: with the girls and talking about the boys.

912
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:41,319
Speaker 6: See, that's what.

913
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 19: They need to change that name to.

914
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:45,759
Speaker 20: Anyway, have a good.

915
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 2: Day, all right, sounds good. Yeah, I'll stay in my

916
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,640

Speaker 8: you live in New York and whole families giant fans,

958
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 8: and how do you become a Dallas Cowboy fan? Yeah,

959
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,440
Speaker 8: quick story about my dad. He you grew up in

960
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 8: the children's home in Sarah Toogas Rings as a kid,

961
00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,520
Speaker 8: and the guy that ran the children's home was a

962
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 8: huge Cowboy fan, and he would tell my father. You'd

963
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,560
Speaker 8: be like, hey, Bob, He's like, if you if you

964
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:12,880
Speaker 8: do all your chores, he'll be week, you know, and

965
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,239
Speaker 8: you act right and you're you know, you're a good kid.

966
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 8: He's like, every Sunday, I'll let you come in here

967
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,440
Speaker 8: and in the office and we'll watch the Dallas Cowboys game.

968
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 8: So that's how my dad became a Dallas Cowboy fan.

969
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 8: And it's like I tell the story all the time

970
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:29,839
Speaker 8: because it's in New York and everybody giants and they

971
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:31,919
Speaker 8: always asked how to become a Cowboy fan. Well, that's

972
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 8: that's how we all became a Cowboys fan.

973
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:36,839
Speaker 2: That's two stories in a row, now from you and

974
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:40,879
Speaker 2: from from Rob in Vegas. And again it's I say

975
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:42,520
Speaker 2: it all the time. You don't choose to be a

976
00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:46,759
Speaker 2: cowboy fan. It chooses you. And that's that. You didn't

977
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:49,160
Speaker 2: choose that. He could have been any team, but you're

978
00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:51,680
Speaker 2: you were just trying to you know, trying to hang

979
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,520
Speaker 2: out there and and with the with the boss and

980
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:58,279
Speaker 2: uh yeah, or he was he was your dad was, Yeah,

981
00:49:58,560 --> 00:49:59,440
Speaker 2: but he passed.

982
00:49:59,160 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 4: It on to you.

983
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 2: You didn't choose that either, And so I love it.

984
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 2: It's it's great, I know. All right.

985
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:08,919
Speaker 8: My question to you, what's your thoughts on the big

986
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 8: situation with him not working out with the best rehab

987
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,479
Speaker 8: person that I know? Uh, what's your thoughts on him

988
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,759
Speaker 8: working on on the zone and not being with the

989
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:21,479
Speaker 8: team right now?

990
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,240
Speaker 2: It's not great. I mean, it's not a great situation

991
00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:29,760
Speaker 2: at all. You know, you're right the you know, the

992
00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 2: the rehab team they have here with Jim Ayer, Britt Brown,

993
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:36,840
Speaker 2: Greg gaitheror those guys. Uh, they're they're they're the best

994
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,799
Speaker 2: and and or they you know they I say they're

995
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:42,400
Speaker 2: the best. They're really great at what they do. I

996
00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:45,040
Speaker 2: don't know where it ranks with others. They're really great

997
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 2: at what they do. Their track record speaks himself. And

998
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 2: not being here, it's there's more to it than just

999
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:55,640
Speaker 2: rehabbing here. It's also you know, it's also being around

1000
00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 2: the guys and and and being part of the action.

1001
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's disappointing and and and it's it's not

1002
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 2: you know, it doesn't bode well for the future in

1003
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 2: my opinion. But because these rehabs, there's good days, there's

1004
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:12,680
Speaker 2: bad days, there's you know, and you you want to

1005
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 2: kind of figure out how you know how to handle

1006
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,319
Speaker 2: these things. All right, today, we're only gonna do this,

1007
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:20,280
Speaker 2: We're gonna do that. And then all of a sudden,

1008
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:22,880
Speaker 2: when it's mandatory, he's gonna get here and and the

1009
00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 2: trainer is going to be like, well did you do

1010
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 2: this and this and this? And it's just the communication

1011
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,800
Speaker 2: is just not gonna be good. He I think he

1012
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:31,880
Speaker 2: should be here, and it's unfortunate that he's not.

1013
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:35,040
Speaker 8: Do you do you think it's a possibility that they

1014
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,640
Speaker 8: trade him?

1015
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:40,640
Speaker 2: Nothing? Nothing would surprise me at this point. Yeah, I think,

1016
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:43,520
Speaker 2: of course, I think that would be a possibility. For

1017
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:47,360
Speaker 2: what I don't I don't know. I mean stories. You know,

1018
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:50,799
Speaker 2: it's the Internet, so stories are nationwide, so everyone what

1019
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,880
Speaker 2: my point is, everyone knows what's happening. So it's not like,

1020
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 2: you know, they'll be I don't I don't know what

1021
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,200
Speaker 2: the market will look like. I don't know. I don't

1022
00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,600
Speaker 2: know if it's if it's gonna be a terrible situation before.

1023
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:04,360
Speaker 2: I mean, he came back last year from an ACL injury.

1024
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,640
Speaker 2: I thought he played pretty well. This is a different

1025
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:12,240
Speaker 2: injury though. This is not just a standard ACL knee injury.

1026
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 2: This this one's a little bit more serious. And so

1027
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 2: we'll see. Though you know right now it is mandatory.

1028
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,920
Speaker 2: Maybe he'll be back you know, for the for the

1029
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,600
Speaker 2: voluntary I mean for the stuff that's I mean, it's

1030
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:25,799
Speaker 2: it's voluntary now. Maybe he'll be back for mandatory and

1031
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,000
Speaker 2: then stay stay longer as well.

1032
00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:32,439
Speaker 8: Didn't have that same yeah that he had.

1033
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it took a little bit of time, but he

1034
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 2: came back and he played well. But different type of

1035
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,920
Speaker 2: player in different position obviously. Noah Brown is a big, strong,

1036
00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:46,600
Speaker 2: physical receiver and you know, it wasn't dynamic played it

1037
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 2: never has been a dynamic player, uh not asked to

1038
00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:52,360
Speaker 2: go cover the fastest players in the world. So a

1039
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,560
Speaker 2: little different when when you're talking about corners receivers and

1040
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 2: you know he gets the side when he wants to

1041
00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,799
Speaker 2: cut and cornerbacks don't, and so you know, we'll we'll

1042
00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:04,040
Speaker 2: we'll see if that's if that's how it all factors in.

1043
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:06,480
Speaker 2: But yeah, you would like to see him here, and

1044
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:10,319
Speaker 2: everybody would want to see uh, you know, hit him

1045
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 2: here and rehappen and and and you know, trying to

1046
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:13,799
Speaker 2: get better as quickly as he can.

1047
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:19,040
Speaker 8: All right, happy birthday to your daughter. This party goal

1048
00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:19,919
Speaker 8: is better than the last.

1049
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you, appreciate it has to be. All right,

1050
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,120
Speaker 2: let's go to Sebastian Savannah, Georgia.

1051
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 21: What are you doing, mister Evens?

1052
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:27,879
Speaker 2: Good? How are you?

1053
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 21: I'm doing just fine. Happy birthday to the little lady.

1054
00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:32,680
Speaker 21: You know, shout out all the girl dads out here, got.

1055
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 7: Two of them, mount there you go.

1056
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:38,000
Speaker 21: Hey, how you guys doing today?

1057
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,040
Speaker 2: We're good, man, We're good. What do you got on

1058
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:40,520
Speaker 2: your mind?

1059
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 21: Hey, I'm doing great. I was just looking at the

1060
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 21: schedule and working it out. I think the first team

1061
00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:48,080
Speaker 21: to get to eleven wins can win this division for

1062
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:50,759
Speaker 21: the NFC. Yeah, so I think, you know, I got it.

1063
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:54,040
Speaker 21: I had it going in and seventh. We got to

1064
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:55,799
Speaker 21: find a way to get that eleventh win. But as

1065
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:57,960
Speaker 21: far as the first game of the season goes. I

1066
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:00,359
Speaker 21: think we pull that off. And here's the reason for that.

1067
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:02,640
Speaker 21: We have a lot of our starters working back from

1068
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:04,200
Speaker 21: injury and it's gonna take at least a couple of

1069
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 21: weeks for everything in the jail. And you're talking about

1070
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:10,880
Speaker 21: three of our five starting corners are coming back to Faith,

1071
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:12,799
Speaker 21: two of the best wide receivers in the league, who

1072
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:15,399
Speaker 21: just came off of a Super Bowl, the highly emotional game.

1073
00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 21: They're gonna be dropping their banner. They're going to want

1074
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,479
Speaker 21: to book your butt at home. So if we drop

1075
00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:21,719
Speaker 21: that game and it's a very competitive game, I'll be

1076
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,000
Speaker 21: very happy with the performance there. Like you say, no

1077
00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:26,560
Speaker 21: moral victories, it's a loss of a loss, but I

1078
00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 21: think we go ten and seven for sure. We got

1079
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:30,480
Speaker 21: to find a way to get an end to the eleventh

1080
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:32,760
Speaker 21: game in there and try to win this division because

1081
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,720
Speaker 21: it's going to probably come down to a type breaker

1082
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:39,719
Speaker 21: between Washington and whoever the last team is in this division. Yeah, yeah,

1083
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:40,279
Speaker 21: that's it for me.

1084
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 6: Man.

1085
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:41,880
Speaker 21: You guys have a great day, machine Man, and I

1086
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 21: up and.

1087
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:46,479
Speaker 2: Listen appreciate it. I mean, yeah, I mean there are

1088
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:50,680
Speaker 2: moral victories. I mean I believe that, and I still

1089
00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:52,520
Speaker 2: agree with the other part. A loss is a loss

1090
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:57,600
Speaker 2: and it counts the same. It's all the reason why

1091
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:00,360
Speaker 2: I say that about moral victories. Whatever it's it's just

1092
00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:03,720
Speaker 2: it's how you respond. And that's just that's a motto

1093
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:06,759
Speaker 2: of life. It's how how do you respond? And how

1094
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:09,680
Speaker 2: do you respond? For the good and the bad. But

1095
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:13,200
Speaker 2: but you know, how are you taking a tough loss?

1096
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:15,960
Speaker 2: Of guy it? Michael from Bowling Greens put out these

1097
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,720
Speaker 2: three scenarios about he would love to see a sixty

1098
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 2: two yard field goal win the game. You know, go

1099
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:23,920
Speaker 2: win the game and beat the Eagles. Okay, what if

1100
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,520
Speaker 2: it hit What if it hits the crossbar? You know,

1101
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 2: what if it what if it hits the post and

1102
00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 2: goes off? And how gut wrenching would that be? Okay, well,

1103
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 2: what happens in week two? I mean, what what happens

1104
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:38,759
Speaker 2: after that when you go play the Giants at home?

1105
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 2: That's that's why week two is always important to me,

1106
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 2: So win, lose, whatever it is. I mean, I just

1107
00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:51,279
Speaker 2: I think it's it's how you handle certain things and

1108
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:53,399
Speaker 2: if and if you know, if you if you can

1109
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:56,960
Speaker 2: figure out a way to bounce back after a tough loss,

1110
00:55:57,600 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 2: then and you know, and that's why I always think

1111
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 2: that Tampa Bay game when twenty is it? I guess

1112
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:08,600
Speaker 2: it was twenty twenty two when they maybe it was

1113
00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 2: twenty one. It was twenty one when they went to

1114
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:14,160
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay and lost a very close game. You know,

1115
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:16,640
Speaker 2: they were the defending champs. Same thing, Thursday night football

1116
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:19,560
Speaker 2: and the banners raised and Tom Brady and they had

1117
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:20,920
Speaker 2: they had him on the ropes and they lost in

1118
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 2: final seconds. That was tough. That was a tough loss.

1119
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:25,560
Speaker 2: Came back won five in a row after that, though,

1120
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:29,360
Speaker 2: So you know, was that a moral victory? In my opinion,

1121
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:32,160
Speaker 2: it was because I think that they everyone they fared

1122
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:34,719
Speaker 2: better than they thought, and they came back and then

1123
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 2: they bounced back from it and they said, all right,

1124
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:39,080
Speaker 2: we're gonna be all right, And they were all right.

1125
00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:42,280
Speaker 2: They were twelve and five teams. So if you handle

1126
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,640
Speaker 2: it the right way, then you know, you can you

1127
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,320
Speaker 2: can have some losses and still and they could still

1128
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:49,799
Speaker 2: help the team. Uh, but you know, you can have

1129
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:52,640
Speaker 2: some wins that that don't help the team if you

1130
00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:54,439
Speaker 2: don't handle it the right way. So I think there's

1131
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:57,280
Speaker 2: two sides to it, As Parcells would say, two sides

1132
00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,319
Speaker 2: to that pancake. All right, A couple more calls here,

1133
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:01,200
Speaker 2: Josh and Nick.

1134
00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:02,759
Speaker 4: How you been good man?

1135
00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:03,279
Speaker 2: How are you?

1136
00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:05,680
Speaker 22: Oh my gosh. I've been trying for the past two

1137
00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,400
Speaker 22: months to get in like crazy, so I'm so happy

1138
00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:09,800
Speaker 22: to get through and talk to you today.

1139
00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:11,080
Speaker 2: Oh man, how you doing?

1140
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:12,960
Speaker 10: You know, I'm uh.

1141
00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:15,759
Speaker 22: I'm happy there's football because I'm a White Sox fan.

1142
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 22: So you want to talk about some misery. One hundred

1143
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:20,320
Speaker 22: and twenty one games of Dying hard is misery?

1144
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:21,040
Speaker 2: Man? Yeah?

1145
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:24,600
Speaker 22: So looking a little Yeah, the team's looking a little

1146
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,040
Speaker 22: bit better this year, but you know, talking football, it's

1147
00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:28,800
Speaker 22: been a couple months. So I just got to say, first,

1148
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,000
Speaker 22: thank you so much for the All Storyline team. When

1149
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:33,320
Speaker 22: you announced it, I was like, no way, I'm making

1150
00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:35,640
Speaker 22: it if I didn't make honorable mention. So once I

1151
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:37,960
Speaker 22: saw a second team, I was like, thank god, that's awesome.

1152
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:38,880
Speaker 21: So thank you so much.

1153
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:42,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you, thank you for dedication and calling and

1154
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:43,760
Speaker 2: doing what it takes to get in.

1155
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:44,760
Speaker 8: Yep.

1156
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:46,760
Speaker 22: And then I know it's a little bit old, but

1157
00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 22: I kind of wonder what was thinking here? What kind

1158
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 22: of grade would you give the off season acquisition so far?

1159
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:55,919
Speaker 22: And I say so far, because hopefully Mike's contract gets

1160
00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:59,440
Speaker 22: done and they can sign another cornerback or detackle. But

1161
00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 22: I really like what they've done so far with Samber

1162
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:03,880
Speaker 22: and pick in Solomon Thomas, those type of guys. Even

1163
00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 22: the running backs I think are smart pickups, hoping that

1164
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 22: they can get you know, maybe Gilmore back or somebody

1165
00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 22: else who's a cornerback with some experience. With the injuries there,

1166
00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:14,640
Speaker 22: maybe you know, once some cap you know, freeze up

1167
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:17,240
Speaker 22: or something happens with Micah, then they can go out

1168
00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:19,600
Speaker 22: and sign another cornerback there or pick up another d tackle.

1169
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:22,080
Speaker 22: But good to talk with you, and I'll jump off

1170
00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:22,960
Speaker 22: the phone line, all.

1171
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:26,680
Speaker 2: Right, great, thanks for the call, Josh. Great grades for

1172
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:29,880
Speaker 2: you know, I mean, obviously the grade is an I.

1173
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 2: It's incomplete, It's always been incomplete. But but you know,

1174
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:38,400
Speaker 2: I'll play a long I mean, like, I think it's

1175
00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 2: been a A B plus and and some people would

1176
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:48,280
Speaker 2: say maybe an A that's based off of the expectations

1177
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 2: of what they've done in the past. But but you know,

1178
00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:55,680
Speaker 2: I think they had they weren't overly aggressive and free agency,

1179
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:59,040
Speaker 2: but they they did pick up more players than they've

1180
00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:00,800
Speaker 2: had in the past, and I think that just comes

1181
00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:02,640
Speaker 2: down to the fact that you're a seven and ten team,

1182
00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,480
Speaker 2: you had a lot of free agents. You know, are

1183
00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 2: your guys better than the guys that are out there

1184
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:11,280
Speaker 2: and a lot of seasons the answer is yes, So

1185
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:15,280
Speaker 2: keep your guys, and fans don't even call that free agency. Really,

1186
00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:17,720
Speaker 2: I don't think fans are sitting here thinking, you know,

1187
00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:20,400
Speaker 2: if the Cowboys had signed a defensive tackle for four

1188
00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:24,360
Speaker 2: years eighty million from another team, I think they would

1189
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:28,200
Speaker 2: be more excited about it than just resigning Osa for

1190
00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:31,200
Speaker 2: that price. But it still counts still free agent. He

1191
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:34,320
Speaker 2: was almost out the door and they got him, So

1192
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:41,280
Speaker 2: I'd say p plus it's been pretty good, has a

1193
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:43,200
Speaker 2: chance to be higher than that, and we'll see if

1194
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:45,919
Speaker 2: they add some more guys. And you said that about

1195
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:49,960
Speaker 2: maybe signing Mica to get another player. They can get

1196
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,400
Speaker 2: whoever they want right now, Like they've got the money

1197
00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:55,360
Speaker 2: to go do that kind of stuff if they wanted to.

1198
00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:59,480
Speaker 2: And the reason why those guys whoever's available, they want

1199
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 2: to be avail. You know, they're not begging for a

1200
01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,640
Speaker 2: job right now. They probably had a huge fan of

1201
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:08,400
Speaker 2: the offseason program, or don't need that right now, or

1202
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:11,640
Speaker 2: rehabing an injury or whatever it is, and getting themselves

1203
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 2: ready to play when it matters. So there's a reason

1204
01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 2: why players are on the street right now, and it's

1205
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:21,920
Speaker 2: usually two ways. All right, let's go to Jeremy and DC.

1206
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:24,919
Speaker 20: Hey, Yo, Nick, what's up, man?

1207
01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:25,720
Speaker 2: How are you doing?

1208
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:28,439
Speaker 20: I'm doing, man, I'm doing good. Book.

1209
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:30,040
Speaker 2: How you doing, buddy, It's been a minute.

1210
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:34,360
Speaker 20: Yeah, Man. The last time I told I got disconnected,

1211
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:36,240
Speaker 20: I was out in West Virginia working troup.

1212
01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:41,400
Speaker 4: All right, all right, he yeah, I was.

1213
01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:42,120
Speaker 20: Trying to get through.

1214
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:42,360
Speaker 8: Man.

1215
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 20: I had to call one day. I called over like

1216
01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:45,440
Speaker 20: one hundred and some times.

1217
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:49,400
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm glad you got through today, man, what

1218
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:49,840
Speaker 2: do you got?

1219
01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:52,200
Speaker 7: All right?

1220
01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:55,200
Speaker 20: So my number for the day, because I've been forgetting

1221
01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 20: for the last couple of times, but my number for

1222
01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,800
Speaker 20: the day. This was gonna be tough for you because

1223
01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:03,440
Speaker 20: be found one other player with this number, number twenty,

1224
01:01:04,240 --> 01:01:07,720
Speaker 20: Tony Pollin's old number. Right, So this is kind of

1225
01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:10,080
Speaker 20: a trivia question for you. At the same time, let

1226
01:01:10,160 --> 01:01:12,560
Speaker 20: me see if you can guess that one. And then

1227
01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:15,520
Speaker 20: I just want to say, man, I'm I'm I'm I'm

1228
01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:20,160
Speaker 20: glad that we been making free agent moves. Man, I'm

1229
01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:23,320
Speaker 20: so happy with the moves they've been making. Only thing

1230
01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:27,040
Speaker 20: that I need them to do is get like a

1231
01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:31,240
Speaker 20: veteran defensive tackle to you know, something like Hankerson to

1232
01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:34,640
Speaker 20: help out, you know, when Mazie and them guys get tired,

1233
01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:37,480
Speaker 20: and to show them guys how to be professional, because

1234
01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:41,520
Speaker 20: there's no really like no veteran in the defensive tackle rooms.

1235
01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:43,960
Speaker 20: So I just think that they just need a veteran

1236
01:01:44,280 --> 01:01:46,840
Speaker 20: to show them guys and lead them guys, show them

1237
01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:49,560
Speaker 20: how to be more professional, you know what I'm saying.

1238
01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:53,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, so what are you asking me about twenty?

1239
01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 2: You just just name another number twenty.

1240
01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:59,200
Speaker 20: So usually, you know, usually I'll give you a number

1241
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:01,920
Speaker 20: and then I'll if you could think of another player

1242
01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:05,400
Speaker 20: with that same exact number, and if you have a

1243
01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:09,840
Speaker 20: story about that player or a story about a player

1244
01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:11,400
Speaker 20: with that same exact number.

1245
01:02:11,600 --> 01:02:15,080
Speaker 2: All right, well I've got three other number twenties. So

1246
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:18,680
Speaker 2: and I know I know those weren't that, but I

1247
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:21,240
Speaker 2: mean Ron Springs from the from the eighties. I mean

1248
01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:24,600
Speaker 2: Ron Springs was it was great, it was he was

1249
01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:27,160
Speaker 2: a really good player and of course, you know, great

1250
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:31,160
Speaker 2: story there sad sad ending to his his life. But

1251
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 2: you know, Derek Ross wore number twenty. I think at

1252
01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:37,800
Speaker 2: one point it might have switched to twenty one too.

1253
01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:42,600
Speaker 2: Ray Horton Ray Horton were War twenty as a veteran

1254
01:02:43,280 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 2: corner there in the early nineties. So I know there's

1255
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,040
Speaker 2: there's more than that, but those are those are the

1256
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:49,720
Speaker 2: ones that come to mind for me.

1257
01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:54,760
Speaker 20: So all right, okay, all right, all right, man, And

1258
01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:58,480
Speaker 20: I want to say thank for the third team mentioned there.

1259
01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:00,640
Speaker 2: You got all.

1260
01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:02,600
Speaker 20: I'm trying to get in more than I can.

1261
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:03,760
Speaker 2: Man, sounds good.

1262
01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:06,960
Speaker 10: Don't hurt nobody, all right, we won't.

1263
01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,560
Speaker 2: We won't for sure. Thank you, Jeremy. Let's go. This

1264
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:12,520
Speaker 2: will be our last caller today. Ronnie in New Jersey, Ronnie,

1265
01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 2: what's up? Man?

1266
01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:14,720
Speaker 7: Hey? How you doing? Nick?

1267
01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 2: Good?

1268
01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:18,640
Speaker 7: Well, I'm pretty good. First of all, I wanted to

1269
01:03:18,680 --> 01:03:22,880
Speaker 7: say congratulations to your daughter for happy birthday. Congratulations to

1270
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:26,840
Speaker 7: Christmas kids for I know they won a couple of

1271
01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:30,480
Speaker 7: championships or are doing pretty good in their baseball teams,

1272
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:35,640
Speaker 7: so congrats to them. And so I know everybody's asking

1273
01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:39,240
Speaker 7: you about, you know, the roster and this, this and that,

1274
01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:42,960
Speaker 7: but I was gonna ask you considering everything they've done

1275
01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:46,200
Speaker 7: this year. I mean they they have made moves like

1276
01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:48,400
Speaker 7: this in a while, right, Like it's been a few

1277
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:51,919
Speaker 7: years since Jerry Jones and the staff has made these

1278
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:56,440
Speaker 7: many moves trades and stuff like that. So do you

1279
01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 7: see them going like into training camp and you know,

1280
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:03,040
Speaker 7: not waiting until later in the season and stuff like that.

1281
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:06,320
Speaker 7: If they see like they're missing holes like a defensive

1282
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,000
Speaker 7: tack or or anything like that, you see them making

1283
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,880
Speaker 7: a move. I mean, considering everything they've done and everything

1284
01:04:11,920 --> 01:04:15,080
Speaker 7: they're doing for your new head coach, our new head coach,

1285
01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:18,680
Speaker 7: which I mean, the guy seems like he's putting this

1286
01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:21,400
Speaker 7: team in the right direction and and everybody's like in

1287
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:24,560
Speaker 7: on it now. Everybody's in right now. So I was

1288
01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:27,760
Speaker 7: just wondering, like, are they going to continue to making

1289
01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:31,040
Speaker 7: moves if they see according to how the boss is

1290
01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:32,840
Speaker 7: going you know what I'm saying.

1291
01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:37,800
Speaker 2: Well, I mean they did that last year. Yeah, I mean,

1292
01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:41,200
Speaker 2: that's one thing that Mike McCarthy did a lot of

1293
01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:44,560
Speaker 2: was make moves towards the you know, start of the

1294
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:47,160
Speaker 2: of the season and right you know, during training camp.

1295
01:04:47,280 --> 01:04:53,320
Speaker 2: I mean Anthony Barr, Jason Peters last year trading for

1296
01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:57,080
Speaker 2: was Jordan Phillips. I mean yeah, I mean they they

1297
01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:59,560
Speaker 2: they've done that a lot. So I don't know if

1298
01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:03,000
Speaker 2: at that well will change, if that mindset changes, but no,

1299
01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:06,960
Speaker 2: Linval Joseph was another one. So yeah, that's something that

1300
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:09,400
Speaker 2: they have done in the past. This has been a

1301
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:15,040
Speaker 2: little bit more unique of the trades early, but yeah, yeah,

1302
01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:16,720
Speaker 2: you're always going to do that. You're gonna fill some

1303
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,240
Speaker 2: holes and and and and so yes, I think that

1304
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:22,040
Speaker 2: will certainly happen. And let's let's just not forget that

1305
01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:25,920
Speaker 2: this past coaching staff did that too, but not to

1306
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:29,880
Speaker 2: the level not that we've seen this year and this early.

1307
01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:34,360
Speaker 7: And that that's my question because I've seen that they've

1308
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:37,120
Speaker 7: traded for some players. Hey we needed a wide receiver.

1309
01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:39,920
Speaker 7: We desperately needed by receiver. They thought they were going

1310
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:41,680
Speaker 7: to get him in the draft, but hey, you know

1311
01:05:41,760 --> 01:05:44,880
Speaker 7: what they made that move to get that that wonder

1312
01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:48,880
Speaker 7: that receiver they really needed or for this team to

1313
01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:52,200
Speaker 7: to prosper and even the offensive side, are they are

1314
01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:54,680
Speaker 7: they going to continue? That's what I was wondering, Like, Wow,

1315
01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:57,800
Speaker 7: I mean Jerry Jones, there they're going in like it's

1316
01:05:57,840 --> 01:05:59,560
Speaker 7: like last year he went up he did it a

1317
01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:01,760
Speaker 7: season league you know how he was we're all in,

1318
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:04,320
Speaker 7: We're all in, and everybody was, what's he talking about?

1319
01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:07,680
Speaker 7: He hasn't done anything, but this year it's like, you know,

1320
01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:10,080
Speaker 7: it came in a little bit later, so he's actually

1321
01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:15,320
Speaker 7: we're all in next year. Yeah, because of the moves

1322
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:17,920
Speaker 7: they made, right, But I was just wondering, like if

1323
01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:21,160
Speaker 7: it seems like, hey, this run defense is going to

1324
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:23,800
Speaker 7: be a problem, you know what, let's let's make a train,

1325
01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:26,200
Speaker 7: Let's let's get somebody that could actually help us with

1326
01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:27,919
Speaker 7: the bun defense stuff like that.

1327
01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:28,480
Speaker 9: Uh.

1328
01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:31,720
Speaker 7: But you know, thanks for taking my call, Naked. I'll

1329
01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:33,200
Speaker 7: listen to you on the other side.

1330
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:35,960
Speaker 2: All right, appreciate it, Thanks, Ronnie. Uh yeah, you know,

1331
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:37,960
Speaker 2: it is funny this this does seem a little bit

1332
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:41,360
Speaker 2: more all in like than than what we saw last year.

1333
01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:45,640
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, I don't think that they're done

1334
01:06:45,720 --> 01:06:48,840
Speaker 2: making moves, but I do think that they've they've made

1335
01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:53,360
Speaker 2: a lot already, more than than the normal. But they

1336
01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:55,760
Speaker 2: still you know that there are players, it's not just

1337
01:06:55,760 --> 01:06:58,880
Speaker 2: the Cowboys Fosphy. There are players that are that are

1338
01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:03,479
Speaker 2: getting themselves ready to go for this time of year.

1339
01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:06,040
Speaker 2: I mean, and they maybe they don't want to go

1340
01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:08,200
Speaker 2: to camp or they you know, they're they're they don't

1341
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:11,400
Speaker 2: feel like they need to they're not even looking to sign,

1342
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:14,560
Speaker 2: or their price tag will we'll will drop when it

1343
01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:16,760
Speaker 2: gets to that that point one way or another, though,

1344
01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:19,600
Speaker 2: there there's always a market for some players that are

1345
01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:22,880
Speaker 2: still out there that aren't ready to sign just yet.

1346
01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:26,040
Speaker 2: So we'll see if the Cowboys decide if they want

1347
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:28,160
Speaker 2: to go that route. All right, it's been a good show,

1348
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:31,000
Speaker 2: really good show. Appreciate you guys calling in, and we

1349
