00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 2: Cowboys. This is Cowboys Storyline with Nick Eatman. Good afternoon, everyone,

4
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 2: Welcome to Cowboys Storyline. I'm Nick Eatman here Thursday, February,

5
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 2: the twenty ninth Leap year. Leap Day, I guess is

6
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 2: what it's called. I don't see that many February twenty

7
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,279
Speaker 2: ninths once every four years, you know. I was kind

8
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 2: of thinking, what will the team look like the next

9
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,520
Speaker 2: time we have a February twenty ninth show. I mean,

10
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: you know, the last last four years, I mean, it

11
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 2: was kind of some of the same guys, but you know,

12
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 2: obviously things will look much different in four years. Always

13
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: does so kind of interesting. I wonder if anyone any

14
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 2: callers their birthday is today, that would be cool. I'd

15
00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 2: like to know it's it cool to have a birthday

16
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 2: on February twenty ninth. I don't know. Anyways, all right,

17
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 2: we got a lot to talk about. As always, well,

18
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,680
Speaker 2: even if we don't we figure it out, we'll talk

19
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 2: about different things, you know, with the Cowboys. Last week

20
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 2: or two days ago when we did the show, Stephen

21
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: Jones had just talked to the media and Jerry Jones

22
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 2: is supposed to talk on Friday, so tomorrow he'll be, uh,

23
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 2: you know, given his thoughts on what's about to happen

24
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 2: in free agency, and you know, who knows if he

25
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: gives away certain things that that you know, plans that

26
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 2: the team might be having it, usually they don't, but

27
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 2: still always good to to, you know, hear from Jerry.

28
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 2: So that will be tomorrow, and then a lot going

29
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 2: on at the combine, you know, Cowboys meeting with certain

30
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 2: players and different guys out there, so you know, we

31
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: know what they need in some positions, but still free

32
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 2: agency will kind of, you know, determine some of that.

33
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: You know with the Cowboys, you know, they usually just

34
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 2: kind of put band aids on positions in free agency.

35
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 2: But if who knows, you know, we'll see what all

36
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 2: then really means. Maybe that means they're going to go

37
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 2: out and be a little bit more aggressive, and if

38
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 2: they are more aggressive at certain positions, you know, maybe

39
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 2: you get a player that that will come in and

40
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: solidify that spot immediately. We just haven't seen that happen

41
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: for a while. Gilmour kind of did at cornerback, but

42
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 2: but you know, not really not like the number one

43
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 2: player at that position. You know, Brandon Cooks helped as well,

44
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: and that was sort of you know, those are trades

45
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 2: in free agency. Maybe the Keboys have something like that

46
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 2: that they're working on as well. All right, eight eight

47
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: eight eight five five two two ninety seven is the

48
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 2: number to call and get that text lined up there

49
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 2: as well. I haven't memorized that one, but we'll get

50
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 2: text messages as well. We'll start off with the calls

51
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 2: Travis and san Antonio.

52
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: Heybody, what's going on?

53
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 2: Hey, how are you good?

54
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: How's your week?

55
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 2: Bend's doing good? Good, doing great? What's going on with you?

56
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: Just getting ready to one to give you a call?

57
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: Getting ready to watch the com I know they had

58
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: some formal visits, so some some Michigan players, which I

59
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: know everybody everybody loves, but I'm the Michigan guy, so

60
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: I don't mind it. But I'm looking forward to kind

61
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: of watching some of the guys the tests that did

62
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: they did the interviews with. But I wanted to get

63
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: your thoughts on this, and it's not it's it's not

64
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: a Dak thing. It's this. I know we just had

65
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: a cap go up, but the quarterback money, Like, I

66
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: don't know if it's ever going to get to a

67
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: point with Like I just wonder with like the running

68
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: back situation where you know that running backs, it got

69
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: to a point where they were like, well, you know,

70
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: we can't pay a running back X, Y and Z

71
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: because this is just it's just not worth it. And like, yeah,

72
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: we paid quarterback, We're going to pay a quarterback. At

73
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: some point, they're gonna start paying up sixty two seventy

74
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: million dollars a year and I don't think any of

75
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: them are worth it, even the other than Patrick Mahomes.

76
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: And even when he signed his last deal, it was

77
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: like that forty five million dollar deal, but it was

78
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: ten years, so he gave them a lot of flexibility

79
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: to keep doing stuff. I know he just got an extension,

80
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 1: But so I just wonder, like if you ever thought, like,

81
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: are we ever going to get to a point where

82
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: the league may go, can we can we just uncap

83
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: and just not count the quarterback position to the cap,

84
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: Like is that would that ever? Is that ever going

85
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 1: to be a possibility, because it's I feel like at

86
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: a certain point, even though cap is going up, it

87
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: might get to a point where quarterbacks are starting to

88
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: hinder like the ability to like make teams good, if

89
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: that makes sense, you know what I'm saying.

90
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't agree, but I do know what you're saying.

91
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 2: I don't. I just don't agree with that. I mean,

92
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 2: I think that's part of it. That's that's why you

93
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 2: have people to kind of figure that this out. It

94
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 2: also puts a lot of pressure on the actual quarterback.

95
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 2: I mean, it kind of makes the position sort of

96
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 2: what it is. I don't know what that would look

97
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 2: like if you didn't have a cap for a quarterback.

98
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 1: But I just wonder if that's even, if that's even

99
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: it's just an outside of the box. I don't think

100
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: it's ever going to happen. Yeah, we've had a lot

101
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 1: of conversations. I was thought, like, because of as relate

102
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: so much, Right, it's like if there was one position

103
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: that owners could go, you know what, they're gonna get

104
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: paid to, like, pay your quarterback as much as you want.

105
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't. We don't care.

106
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: Like, if you're going to commit to the guy, pay

107
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: him as much as you want, and then you can

108
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: deal with the here's the rest of the cap for

109
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: the rest of the team. I don't know if that

110
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 1: would just make things easier, but there's just some thought.

111
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, so interesting. I mean, what happened with San Francisco.

112
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,719
Speaker 2: What would happen when you have a guy, you know,

113
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 2: like like brock Purty that comes in maybe, well if

114
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 2: you if.

115
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: You draft a guy like that, then that's like, that's

116
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: like your bonus, right until you have to pay him,

117
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: because that's just if you don't have to pay him

118
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: a bunch of money, then you don't, then you get

119
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: to spend that elsewhere. So they would still get that advantage,

120
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: right if you draft a guy, but yeah, decide to

121
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: pay him. It's like pay whatever you want. But it

122
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: doesn't affect the team because I already heard Steven Jones

123
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: say the thing that I hate he says the most

124
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: where he says like the cap is real for us,

125
00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: which I know it literally is, but it's the just

126
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: make me a question already the whole we're all in.

127
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, well, I mean that's that's a big

128
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 2: question too. And and we we know, thanks for the call, Travis.

129
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 2: We know that they're not going to be all in

130
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 2: the way that that some people think they're going to be.

131
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 2: I mean, you know that's or or or hoping that

132
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,679
Speaker 2: they will be. Uh, it's not going to be. It's

133
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 2: it's not it's not going to be that way. It's

134
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 2: not going to be. They're not going to be as

135
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,359
Speaker 2: aggressive as you as you would think. I think that

136
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 2: they'll I think they'll do more, and I think they

137
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 2: have if you go back and look the last couple

138
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 2: of years, they have done a little bit more and more.

139
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 2: I think with McCarthy, they have gotten more, more players,

140
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 2: more veteran guys, you know, the well known players you

141
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 2: know maybe at the end of their career that some

142
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 2: of them helped, some of them really didn't so much.

143
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 2: But you know, they they are trying to add players,

144
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 2: you know, to this team, and they have like even

145
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 2: during the season. Look at two years ago, look at

146
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: it last year. You know, they'll they'll add some some

147
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,239
Speaker 2: guys in there. But that's not really an all in approach.

148
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 2: But we'll we'll see, we'll see what happens in free agency.

149
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 2: I mean, they have to be more aggressive. They have

150
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 2: to do that. And I just think that's another way too.

151
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 2: It's like what you've done for so many years hasn't

152
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 2: really worked. It hasn't been the ultimate payoff. So you're

153
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 2: not changing the people making the decisions, So why don't

154
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 2: you change a little bit of the philosophy on how

155
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 2: they how they build the team? You know a little bit.

156
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 2: It's still through the draft, but that doesn't mean every

157
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 2: now and again, every every few years. You can't say,

158
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 2: all right, we have specific needs and free agency, let's go,

159
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 2: let's go that route. So we'll see. All right, let's

160
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 2: go to ray and Fort Worth is our next call.

161
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 3: How you doing?

162
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: How you doing? Man?

163
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 3: I'm doing great? So thanks for having this show.

164
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: I haven't heard from you. Wow, I've heard from you

165
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 2: way way back in the day, but I haven't heard

166
00:07:59,360 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 2: in a while.

167
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 3: You call some other shows, Yeah, no, they don't have

168
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 3: much to call in. But I've been listening. So a

169
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 3: couple of I need to get I'm gonna be try

170
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 3: to be fast. So a couple of weeks I heard

171
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 3: of caller basically telling Michael to stay off social media,

172
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 3: basically saying, play football and shut up. So here's the deal.

173
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 3: We always want these players to be open and honest

174
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 3: and take a leadership rod, but when they do, you

175
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 3: have a problem. I have zero problems with Michael Parsons

176
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 3: said about Tank Lawrence. You know why, because Tank Lawns

177
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 3: likes to run in his mouth. When they do good,

178
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 3: we kick them. When they're down, we kick them again,

179
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 3: and we kick them again, and then it comes out

180
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 3: makes an excuse like, oh, we're tired. I'm sure Green

181
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 3: Bay was tired when they kicked your tail. I'm tired.

182
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 3: I'm sure fans are tired of spending big money for

183
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 3: tickets and come out and you put a problem a

184
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 3: product like that out. Now. I have zero problems with him.

185
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 3: Second part, I think we're eliminating Michael Parsons by just

186
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 3: playing them at defensive end. I think it's capable of

187
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 3: so much more. I think he I think we can.

188
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 3: You know, maybe you give him the dot. Let's see

189
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 3: what's going on. I'd like to see him out there

190
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 3: because I think we're limiting him. But he can. He

191
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 3: can actually cover players. You know, you were were just

192
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 3: limiting his speed. We're just playing them at defensive end.

193
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,959
Speaker 3: And that's why team starts saying just just don't blocking,

194
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 3: just don't block him. He we're just limiting him. We

195
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 3: want this. He's got so much more potential. When his

196
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,439
Speaker 3: rookie year we did that, he played linebacker. I even

197
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,959
Speaker 3: went back and so I saw him cover a receiver

198
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 3: when he recognized who's coming out there. I just think

199
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 3: we're limiting him just playing defense in hopefully Zimmer let's

200
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 3: open up and take more advantage of it. I don't

201
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 3: know what all that means, but it's at some point

202
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 3: you gotta gotta do something because just regularly season, just

203
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 3: regular season, Okay, well that that doesn't mean anything if

204
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 3: you're going on and done in the playoffs. But I

205
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 3: love the team and I'm still following, and thank you

206
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 3: for having this show.

207
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 2: All right, thanks very appreciate that. A couple of things

208
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 2: on Micah, You're right about about you know, there are

209
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 2: a lot of people that that they'll criticize you for

210
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 2: not saying anything. Oh, you never talks. He doesn't say

211
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 2: anything never. You know, he's not a leader because he

212
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 2: doesn't open up in the locker room or whatever. And

213
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 2: then when and then when they do, then you know,

214
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 2: then that's subject to being criticized as well. But I

215
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 2: think we all know that though that he's getting he's

216
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 2: getting a little too much with with some of the

217
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 2: things that he said, especially if it's coming back to

218
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 2: his own his own teammates, and so I cause you cause,

219
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't matter if it's true or not.

220
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 2: I mean that that's not the point. I mean, we

221
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 2: know we don't we don't do that in our lives.

222
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 2: Oh well that's true. Well that doesn't mean to say it. Okay,

223
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 2: that's something you have to teach little kids and that

224
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 2: kind of stuff, especially when you're talking about teammates, because

225
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 2: that that becomes a different problem inside the locker room

226
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 2: with chemistry and that kind of stuff. So I definitely

227
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 2: think that Mica needs to be a little bit more

228
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 2: careful with some of the things that he says. Now

229
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 2: when you're talking about limiting him at defensive end linebacker,

230
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 2: you know, I don't know if he's not limiting himself

231
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 2: with with what he wants to do and how he

232
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 2: wants to where he wants to play, and what kind

233
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 2: of statistics that you know that that brings. I mean, guys,

234
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 2: I think Fred Warner is one of the best players

235
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 2: in football. I mean, and he he is. He is

236
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 2: a difference maker. He is a great player and always

237
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 2: seems to kill the Cowboys, and and he's he's doing

238
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 2: it from from that position. So I'm not saying that

239
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 2: you can't be a great player from there, and maybe

240
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 2: Micah could be that type of guy. I think he's

241
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 2: He's made it very clear he likes to get pressures

242
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 2: and likes to get sacks. But but I'm I'm anxious

243
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 2: to see what Zimmer is going to be able to

244
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 2: do with him, and you know it'll be aggressive without

245
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,199
Speaker 2: a doubt. But but again, they're gonna need to get

246
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 2: some help on the other side that there. If he's

247
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 2: not rushing the passer, then who is, you know, because

248
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 2: they're losing it. Well I say losing They got some

249
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: free agents, probably not going to keep them all defensive end,

250
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 2: so they're gonna need people to rush the pastor for sure.

251
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 2: But so I like your points. I do think though,

252
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 2: when it comes to, you know, being vocal, I mean,

253
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 2: he's got he's got to kind of pick his spots

254
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 2: a little bit, a little bit more there because he's

255
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 2: it's definitely definitely potentially rubbing people the wrong way all

256
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 2: right in his own teammates, All right, lines are open

257
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 2: right now eight A A eight, five, five two two

258
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 2: nine seven. I hear that all the time, Like I

259
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 2: called one hundred times in a row. I think you'd

260
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 2: call one time in a row and if that's a thing,

261
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 2: and you know, you should be able to get in

262
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 2: like like Mike from Boston. He's sending text message here, man,

263
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 2: I wish Mike would call because we still have that

264
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 2: one state Massachusetts that we've never had a call from.

265
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 2: But Mike from Boston, what do you see? Uh post

266
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 2: Jerry Jones doubt Dallas Cowboys team looking like they finally

267
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 2: give Will McLay the general manager. Okay, and I'm going

268
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 2: to stop right there. I'm gost stop because it's the

269
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 2: same with the question that that Travis had about you

270
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 2: know what a salary cap with no with you know

271
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 2: that doesn't include the quarterbacks. I'm not even going there.

272
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 2: I'm not. I mean, that's not happening. That that's not

273
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:20,559
Speaker 2: going to be the thing. And I don't want to

274
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 2: I don't want to go down that road and even

275
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 2: even say all that. So he does say Macho Man

276
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 2: and Miss Elizabeth were his favorite wrestlers so or and

277
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 2: you know they were kind of a tandem there. I

278
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 2: guess they were married. Uh yeah, the Macho Man he

279
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 2: was he was the best for sure. But uh, you know,

280
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 2: Jerry's the gym Jerry's the gym of the team, and

281
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 2: that's what it is this year. That's what we care about.

282
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 2: Care about what the salary cap looks like this year,

283
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 2: what free agency looks like, how this team gets better.

284
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 2: That should be the focus. Getting too far beyond that

285
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 2: really doesn't make a lot of sense for me. Let's

286
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 2: go to another text question. This is Kevin from Virginia.

287
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 2: He says, do you believe it's a feasible it's feasible

288
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 2: for the Cowboys to bring in Derrick Henry or say

289
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 2: Kwan Barkley, uh, that type of free agent and Tony

290
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 2: Pollard as the backup to them. Well, probably not because

291
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 2: that's a lot of money in that position. And I

292
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 2: just don't see, you know, because Pollard is included in

293
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: that group now like nationally now he's maybe not one

294
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 2: of the top, but he's he's in that group, and

295
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 2: he was franchised last year as well, had a thousand

296
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 2: yards rushing. You know, it wasn't a great season, but

297
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 2: he was. He's still productive and he's going to be

298
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 2: considered in that he's the in that next tier. So

299
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 2: I just don't see the Cowboys getting a Tier one

300
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: and a Tier two type running back when when they

301
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 2: they probably can draft one and he immediately can get

302
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 2: into that that second level, maybe even the first, depending

303
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 2: on who they get. So I don't really see that happening.

304
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 2: I think if they strike out on getting one of

305
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 2: the top back and then Pollard's still there and hasn't signed, yeah,

306
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's a situation. I mean, Mike

307
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 2: McCarthy has said it that he wants him back, and

308
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 2: you know, I think Steven and Jeril both say that,

309
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 2: but Steven kind of made it sound like, yeah, we

310
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 2: like him, but let's see what happens in the market.

311
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 2: So you know, they have they have the ability to

312
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 2: sign them now, but you're getting this close to free agency.

313
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 2: You know, the player are going to see what they're worth.

314
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 2: And I don't blame them for that. All right, let's

315
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 2: go Chris in New York.

316
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 4: Hey, Nick, how you doing good?

317
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 2: How you doing man?

318
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 4: I'm good, I'm good. I've been listening to you for

319
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 4: for a little while now, first time actually getting a

320
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 4: call list.

321
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 2: We go nice.

322
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 4: All right, Yeah, so one or two, you know, and

323
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 4: I think it's kind of been you know, talked about

324
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 4: so much about Micah talking in the off season and

325
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 4: it potentially could rub some people in the locker room

326
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 4: the wrong way. I think that's totally fair, and I

327
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 4: think it's you know, it's possible feedback. But at the

328
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 4: end of the day, you know, I love Tank, love him.

329
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 4: It's been with the team a long time, but you

330
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 4: would think for a guy been there ten years, he

331
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 4: would have had something better to say coming on national TV.

332
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 2: And it's like, especially with the biggest Cowboys hater sitting

333
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: there right next to I say hater, I mean he's

334
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 2: a fake hater, but you know what I mean, Yeah,

335
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 2: he plays the part.

336
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, he's pushing the Cowboys stories the same way

337
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 4: that a lot of the media does. They're capitalizing as well.

338
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 4: So it's just like, you know, you expect him to

339
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 4: be a leader because he's been there ten years, because

340
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 4: he's a great player, but for him to come on

341
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 4: TV and say that, it's like, man, I have to

342
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 4: question how much of a leader he actually is. Obvious

343
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 4: obviously I don't have purview into the locker room and

344
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 4: how things are done, but you know, the when Micah

345
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 4: talks about wanting to change culture or that there needs

346
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 4: to be a culture shift, I think that right there

347
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 4: is a glaring example of a situation where a veteran

348
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 4: guy goes on TV and says literally the worst thing

349
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 4: that you could say, you know, and basically everyone's got

350
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 4: to respond to that, now, you know.

351
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, and yeah, I've been asked about it a couple

352
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 2: of times. I don't have a great answer. I'm just

353
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 2: I just, like I said, his what he's put out there,

354
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 2: his product on the field has been way better than that,

355
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 2: and hasn't been He's not been really an excuse guy

356
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 2: or anything like that. So I just tend to believe

357
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 2: that that's not really what he meant to say. It

358
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 2: came out horribly wrong for what he the type of

359
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,959
Speaker 2: player in person that he is, So if this was

360
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 2: his first or second year, you'd wonder a little bit

361
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 2: about him. He's played ten years, he's given, he's given

362
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 2: everything he has, and he's not really a me guy.

363
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 2: He stops the run, he knows how to you know,

364
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 2: sacrifice his body to get in there and make these

365
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 2: big plays. He understands the importance of that.

366
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 5: So he, you know, he's a great guy.

367
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 4: And honestly, when when I heard a few, you know,

368
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 4: before he got his last extension that he was and

369
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 4: I don't know how true it is, but he was

370
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 4: already out the door essentially. When Jerry calls him back

371
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 4: in and they get that three year extension done, you know,

372
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 4: it's like, man, we want that guy on our team

373
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 4: because he's a great, great player. But I'll say this

374
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 4: and then I'll drop, you know. You know, people can

375
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 4: have their opinions about Mike's podcast. I don't listen to

376
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 4: it during the season, but the stuff after the season

377
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 4: has actually been really I thought it was really cool because,

378
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 4: you know, if people are getting sour about Jordan Love

379
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 4: telling Michael Parsons through his face the same stuff that

380
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 4: we all see, I think that we need to look

381
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 4: at ourselves and know that we can we should be

382
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 4: able to take that type of cariticism. But I would

383
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 4: love to see Tank get in front and talk with

384
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 4: Mike because I want to hear from the two people

385
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 4: who are some of our best players what their plan

386
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 4: is for next year, you know, and that's a great

387
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 4: way to kind of settle down the hole. There's a

388
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,719
Speaker 4: problems within the locker room, but we'll see how that

389
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 4: goes with it.

390
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, though, Chris, because you said

391
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 2: we should look at ourselves if we have a problem

392
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,440
Speaker 2: with him saying what we already know, right, So that's

393
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 2: kind of what you're saying, is we already saw that,

394
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 2: Jordan Love, you don't we don't need you to say that, right,

395
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 2: because we saw that what they did and how they Jordan.

396
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 4: Love saying like, hey, we can run the ball on right, right,

397
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 4: And then I think, go ahead.

398
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 2: No, no, you're right, you're you're saying the same thing

399
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 2: like we What you're saying is we ultimately really didn't

400
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 2: need him to say that. We kind of knew that, right, right,

401
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 2: But it seemed like, so why put him on the podcast?

402
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 4: Well, I don't I think that that's him making content.

403
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 4: I think think that people within the front office should

404
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 4: have done a better job of actually addressing, you know,

405
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 4: the middle of the field. Jordan Love says that, you

406
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 4: know he's not making it taken a shot, but you

407
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 4: guys had a dB playing a linebacker, like we all

408
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 4: saw that. We saw that he was undersized. It was

409
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 4: literally a talking point. Yeah all year, you know, I

410
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,360
Speaker 4: mean once once once Leyton vander ash went down, there

411
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 4: should have been a real move. And yeah, they tried

412
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 4: to get Shaq Leonard, but you try and get somebody else.

413
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,680
Speaker 4: You put some more people in there, and it's a

414
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 4: I think for for you know, a fan watching outside,

415
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 4: you hear them saying, you know, we like our guys

416
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 4: or like our guys. It's like, sometimes we can get better.

417
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 4: And we may like the players that we have, and

418
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 4: we we may love them, but sometimes we can get better,

419
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 4: and we should we should be doing things to get

420
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 4: better and not just leaving them status quo.

421
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 2: All right, all right, thanks for the call, Chris, first time,

422
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,640
Speaker 2: first time call it Chris, New York. So appreciate that.

423
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,239
Speaker 2: Let's get Let's get on to the next caller. And

424
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 2: I asked for it and I got it. All right,

425
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 2: here we go, Mike from Boston.

426
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 6: I want to start the conversation by saying, you kind

427
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 6: of pooh poohed my Will McClay being a GM. I

428
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 6: don't mean, but I want Jerry gone.

429
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 2: Let's ask it differently. I get it. Let's let's ask

430
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 2: it a little different than that, because that's not the case,

431
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 2: like like hypothetically and all that kind of I don't

432
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 2: now we're getting into we're getting into touchy subjects. Let's don't,

433
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 2: let's don't, let's ask it won't go down Okay. First

434
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 2: of all, hold on, hold on, let's get it started.

435
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 2: First time caller, right, we know what that means. You

436
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 2: got your own drop. I love it all right, and

437
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 2: you text a lot, you text on the text line,

438
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 2: so it's good to have you. I can't believe that

439
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 2: this has been our first call from Massachusetts, not like

440
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 2: this is a small state.

441
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,439
Speaker 6: So let me let me tell you. I'm a Yankee

442
00:21:55,480 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 6: fan too, growing up in Boston, but I love Dallas

443
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 6: more than the Yankees. You and I have so much

444
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 6: in common that even Chris Bean, I love you, guys.

445
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 6: Let me meet you and Chris Evern went out like

446
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,880
Speaker 6: drank Miller, like Dallas cowboy h you know, beage.

447
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 2: It would be fun. And I'll tell you why because

448
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 2: I'm sure you can throw some hands. Because if you're

449
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 2: a Yankees fan in Boston and a Cowboys fan, you

450
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 2: probably had an altercation or six in your life, maybe nightly.

451
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 2: And uh yeah, of course it was Beam, you know Beam?

452
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 2: Can you know he can?

453
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 6: I got to have the owner of the nightclub let

454
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,199
Speaker 6: me out the back to it, because I got in

455
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 6: a fight over Derek Jeter someone calling him a derogatory name.

456
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 6: I won't say it on the air, thank you. And

457
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 6: I was just mine in my own business, and I

458
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 6: had a Yankee hat on after the game.

459
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 2: But anyway, well, okay, you can't talk about Jeter that way.

460
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 2: Who who's the cowboy player that would get you in

461
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 2: a fist fight if they said something Michael.

462
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 6: Time about his about his problems. I always got it

463
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 6: in high school. I'm the same age as you. So

464
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 6: I was in high school during the glory days.

465
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 2: That's great, Yeah, that's good.

466
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,640
Speaker 6: I met michaelover in Fort Laud. I used to live in.

467
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:20,400
Speaker 2: What time of night? What what time of night was you?

468
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 6: It was at a nightclub. I won't you let me

469
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 6: try a Super Bowl ring on?

470
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 7: Though?

471
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 2: Cool?

472
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 6: I have a picture of it. Yeah, it's on my

473
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 6: one of my pages.

474
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 2: That's cool.

475
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 5: But anyway, what's your.

476
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 6: Favorite rock band? You must have like an eighties band

477
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,120
Speaker 6: that nobody else really likes. Still, but you still because

478
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 6: you're loyal.

479
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 2: I can tell eighties rock band. You know what's funny?

480
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't know. I don't know about eighties

481
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,719
Speaker 2: rock band. But I have heard living on a prayer

482
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 2: two days in a row. Now I wonder, I wonder

483
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 2: what's going on there? But two different days, like the

484
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 2: last two times I got in my car living on

485
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 2: a prayer was on. It's not like I'm jamming to

486
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 2: eighties music either, So I don't I don't know. I'm

487
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 2: a little bit of everything.

488
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 6: Kiss. I've seen Kiss twenty two.

489
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 2: Times, and I you and I aren't exactly the same.

490
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 2: Then I would tell you that because that's twenty three

491
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 2: more times than I would want to see them.

492
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 6: I had an older brother who kind of puts me

493
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:14,680
Speaker 6: into it.

494
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 2: All right, But what's going on with this team? Mike?

495
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 2: What's going on? So ask that question differently about about

496
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 2: Will McClay. Wait, wait, what do you think about Will that?

497
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 2: You do you like that? You think he's somebody that

498
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:27,360
Speaker 2: should take over a little bit more.

499
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 6: I just feel like he's the silent potner of the

500
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 6: nightclub that never gets to tell people he owns the club.

501
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 6: It's always the loud. And I love Jerry Jones. I

502
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 6: can't get enough of him. I live in Boston. I

503
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 6: do taxes for a living. It's tax season right now.

504
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 6: I am slammed. I listen to all your park I

505
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,360
Speaker 6: can't give enough. I listened to his interviews on one

506
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 6: oh five three. I mean my family's been coming insane.

507
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 2: Can't get my tax got to call me back. I

508
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 2: wonder if he's listening to some like Patriots podcast or

509
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:58,640
Speaker 2: something like that.

510
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 6: No, my parents have season tickets at Patriots when the

511
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 6: Cowboys have been coming kind of a lot lately. I

512
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,639
Speaker 6: went to see Dallas and you know, the Patriots in

513
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 6: Della's a couple of times in the last five years.

514
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 6: So it's nice we finally beat the Patriots. Yeah, but

515
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 6: I have a couple more things. I'll let you go.

516
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 6: So the fifteen, we just need some tougher guys. We

517
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,880
Speaker 6: need eleven jig Fertisons on offense because he's a bad

518
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 6: you know what ye like. He's a tough kid from Wiscon.

519
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 6: You know what I mean, Like he knows how to

520
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 6: play football. Gap is overpaid, but you have to overpay

521
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 6: the quarterback. What are you going to do? I'm curious.

522
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 6: Do you hear anything about Trey Lance? You can answer

523
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 6: that when we hang up. I mean, is he getting

524
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 6: any better? Because we did give up a pretty good

525
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,160
Speaker 6: pick for him, right, I mean people say fourth round pick.

526
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 6: We found some dandies in the fourth round, second round

527
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 6: not so much.

528
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,400
Speaker 2: But well, I mean, don't forget about your all pro

529
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 2: cornerback that had eleven picks. I mean, you know, oh

530
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 2: I forgot, I.

531
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 6: Forget he's the second round.

532
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean sometimes we kind of lump those guys

533
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,199
Speaker 2: in together, those guys that you know that with the

534
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 2: risk involved and all that, and and and injured or

535
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 2: what Jaylen Smith type and all that. But I mean,

536
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 2: no Trey, I mean Trayvon Dias as well. He's the

537
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 2: exception to the rule.

538
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 6: He fizzled. He had that one game in New Orleans,

539
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 6: him and vander USh was drilling people. Do you remember

540
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 6: that game that was in the Superdome?

541
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 2: Sure? Yeah, So I'm gonna let.

542
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 6: A favorite rustler, macho man and Miss Elizabeth. She was

543
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,919
Speaker 6: so beautiful, wasn't she. What a lovely lady and obscure

544
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 6: not obscure cowboy. But my brother and I used to

545
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 6: always laugh. Brock Marion used to always make it seem

546
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 6: like he just missed the tackle. He would always get

547
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 6: up and like punch his arms, and my brother and

548
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 6: I like we have that weird sense of humor. My

549
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 6: brother's like, is it need that? He always looked like

550
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 6: act like you just missed the tackle, And I'm like,

551
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 6: no one else hasn't noticed things like that. But he

552
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 6: would always get up and just like looked like he

553
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,679
Speaker 6: was frustrated. And he was a good player, don't get

554
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 6: me wrong, but yeah, fact I never missed any Cowboy games.

555
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,439
Speaker 6: And this is before the internet. I used to go

556
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,120
Speaker 6: to any sports bar I could find to see them

557
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 6: on the satellite. I mean I was I wasn't even

558
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 6: of age, and I'd be at bozz trying to find

559
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 6: the Cowboys against you know, name some you know, you

560
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 6: know what team. Yeah, And so you and I are

561
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 6: a lot of like, I know you don't like chess,

562
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 6: but you're loyal. You love your Kansas Raisa back by

563
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 6: Miami Hurricanes, you know the college football team. You can

564
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 6: kind of see the trend with me, the glamorous teams.

565
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Hurricane right right. Yeah. Well you're also like,

566
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 2: like it seemed like you like to piss off the

567
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 2: fan base there because I bet you the BC Eagles

568
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,159
Speaker 2: don't really like Miami, you know what Boston and the

569
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 2: Yankees do. And then you know, no one likes the

570
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 2: Cowboys unless you're a Cowboy fan. So there you go. Yeah,

571
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 2: we go hang out the bar. You just don't get

572
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 2: to find you if I have a come back, I'm

573
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 2: actually good.

574
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 6: I thought about moving there.

575
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 2: All right, Well, there's people do that every day, but uh,

576
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 2: I'm good if I if there was any sporting like

577
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 2: venue that I would just get to one game, anything

578
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 2: like you know the Masters or any stadium. It's Fenway Park.

579
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 2: I have to go to Finway Park, and I have

580
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 2: to sit in the third base side like I need

581
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 2: to be. The wall needs to be right over here

582
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 2: by me. So I'm gonna do that. At some point,

583
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go. I took all right, Mike practice, Oh wow, if.

584
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 6: You donated money, they let you get two swings. And

585
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 6: I played college baseball. I brought an aluminum bat and

586
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 6: I hit it off the wall.

587
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 2: Nice.

588
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 6: But I was in my late twenties. I hadn't played

00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 2: it to you. If Chris is paying attention, he might

615
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 2: be on the phone. That's fine, Allan, what's up man,

616
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 2: I'm on the phone.

617
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 7: I'll take it.

618
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: At the end.

619
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 2: It's all good, we'll take it.

620
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,720
Speaker 7: Hey, So I'm a huge fan of DAK. I understand

621
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 7: he's got his limitations. Playoff game. I don't know there's

622
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,959
Speaker 7: one person that actually looked good during that whole thing.

623
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 7: So I think they do get that contract redone and

624
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 7: all that stuff. I think he's good to go. I think,

625
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 7: you know, being almost an MVP. Just give him a

626
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 7: run game and let's see what he actually does in

627
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 7: the second year under McCarthy.

628
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 5: So I like all that.

629
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 7: My big question is is what are we going to

630
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 7: do with that backup now? Because we've got two guys,

631
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 7: if I understand correctly, are pretty much on one year

632
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 7: deals each.

633
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, the backup to which position?

634
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 7: The backup?

635
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: QB?

636
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 5: Oh?

637
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 2: Backup? QB I'm sorry, I thought's talk about running bay

638
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 2: Oh No, you know that answers. The last caller kind

639
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 2: of talked about Trey Lance as well. I I think

640
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 2: that his progression would be to be the be the

641
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 2: backup this year, and that you could save some money

642
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 2: if you released Cooper rush It. But he's got to

643
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 2: be ready. He's got to be ready to do that

644
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 2: that if you you draft the guy or you trade

645
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 2: a fourth round pick for him. You know, last year

646
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 2: he just kind of sat and learned the offense, he

647
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 2: should be ready to be the backup at least. So

648
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 2: I think that that should be the direction that I

649
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 2: would want to go is look at the offseason, see

650
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 2: what happens, and you know, Cooper Rush could be a

651
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 2: June one release, honestly, but I think I think you

652
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 2: got to start getting Trey Lance at least ready to

653
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:43,719
Speaker 2: be the backup.

654
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure, And I guess that would be My

655
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 7: question is you gave up a fourth forum the balls out,

656
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 7: There's no way you're resigning them. I can't imagine because someone,

657
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 7: you know, a free agency, you've already got your starring quarterback.

658
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 2: We wait, when does he ball out?

659
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 7: Well, it's going to have to be pre season for sure.

660
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 2: Well, I mean then you then he's your backup and

661
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 2: you know, I mean you know, I mean I think

662
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 2: he would be your backup quarterback. And then well then

663
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 2: what happens with Dak I mean, like they have options.

664
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 2: I mean, would be the worst thing in the world

665
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 2: to have. But you know, and if Cooper Rush's still here,

666
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 2: you know, maybe it's something maybe you can trade him,

667
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 2: you know, you trade him and get a pickback or

668
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 2: something like that. So you know, you want them to

669
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 2: play well and and that just gives you more options.

670
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, I guess I was just like the way the

671
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 7: season started last year with Dak It's like, all right,

672
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 7: I could see them kind of looking at this spending

673
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 7: a fourth round, that's a good deal. But if you

674
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 7: do end up giving Dack that contract and you wasted

675
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 7: kind of a fourth round on the guy, especially when

676
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 7: you kind of here with this draft, everyone's talking about

677
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 7: that that middle rounds, they're they're awesome, you know, and

678
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 7: you kind of almost want that. But I guess it

679
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 7: was just kind of is what your thoughts were on

680
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 7: that and just kind of how they how they navigate that,

681
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 7: and you know, did we waste the pick or or

682
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 7: draft pick or whatever.

683
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 2: Yeah? No, I mean I I think that you know,

684
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 2: they're just giving yourself more options than Thanks for the call, Alan,

685
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 2: appreciate that. You got to remember too, there you go,

686
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 2: it gets just here we go. Yeah, we'll make exceptions.

687
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 2: I know we weren't doing that when he called the

688
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 2: first time around. So and you know, we don't get

689
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 2: too many calls from Idaho. We need to That's another

690
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 2: place that wouldn't mind going. I mean, we almost did

691
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 2: a documentary about Boise State, just because there was a

692
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 2: time there when there was about five five players and

693
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 2: a coach and McKillen moore was it. I mean, when

694
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 2: you know, it's like what's going on Boise you know,

695
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 2: let's let's go check this place out. But it didn't materialize.

696
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 2: But still it's kind of a fascinating place for me.

697
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 2: I'd like to go see it sometime. But you gotta

698
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 2: remember too, about that trade with Trey Lance, like that

699
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 2: didn't have the season, and I mean that was in

700
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 2: pre season. He was coming off the season where you know,

701
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 2: he led the league in the interceptions and and and

702
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 2: missed a few games, so it wasn't it wasn't his

703
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 2: best year at all. Now he now he did. He

704
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 2: did have a nice game in the playoffs against Tampa

705
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 2: and but but still, like you're trying to just you know,

706
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 2: if you have a chance to get a player like

707
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 2: Trey Lance and trade a fourth round pick for him,

708
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 2: you know they they probably scouted him very highly, so

709
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,919
Speaker 2: you know this was just a kind of a free look.

710
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 2: I mean I say free, it's a fourth round pick,

711
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 2: but to get a player like that or at least

712
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 2: try to develop him, and they're not in any hurry

713
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 2: with him, So I think that that's that's kind of

714
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 2: what the mindset was. Then Dak goes out and has

715
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 2: an outstanding year and this was second in the MVP voting,

716
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 2: So that I just think you got to remember, you

717
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 2: know that they made that that trade to kind of

718
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 2: cover themselves and now you know, we'll see h But

719
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,880
Speaker 2: if he if he can move himself into the backup role,

720
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,839
Speaker 2: that I think that shows pretty good progress for where

721
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 2: he is in his career, in his development. All right,

722
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 2: Derek and Seattle, Hey, Derek.

723
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 8: Hey there, Hey, just wanted to get your insight on

724
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 8: two things real quick. I'm hearing that there's no maybe

725
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,839
Speaker 8: linebackers that are worthy to be taken in the first round,

726
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 8: but I feel like we got to get a stud

727
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 8: linebacker over an interior defensive lineman. So I want your

728
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 8: thoughts on that. Which would you pick in the first

729
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 8: round and then second? Now I don't watch all the tape,

730
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 8: but I watch every Cowboy game. Dallas's run game, we

731
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 8: both agree they got to improve it, but man, it

732
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,359
Speaker 8: seems so vanilla to me. It seems like they run

733
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 8: three types of runs. And I watch all these other

734
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 8: teams and they're running beautiful trap plays and pulling guards

735
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 8: and it's just so creative. And I don't know if

736
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 8: that's McCarthy or what, but maybe it's not true. But

737
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 8: to me, good grief, their runs look exactly the same

738
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:55,879
Speaker 8: every time.

739
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 2: So well, I don't know if I agree with that.

740
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 2: Thanks for the call. I mean, like, you know, I

741
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,360
Speaker 2: think it's very normal to kind of think, because you

742
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 2: watch them so much, you kind of think, oh, they

743
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 2: all look the same. I've never thought that, honestly, I've

744
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 2: never thought that the runs look look the same. I mean,

745
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 2: I see, I see some creativity in there. I see,

746
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:19,800
Speaker 2: you know, definitely see some receivers running the ball and

747
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 2: on jet sweeps and reverses and things like that. You know,

748
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,720
Speaker 2: I see, I see the pitches, I see the traps.

749
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 2: I see that, you know, the you know, the dives

750
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 2: right up the middle. I mean, I don't know, I

751
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 2: don't know if I see that. I just don't think

752
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 2: they they block as well as they should, you know,

753
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,320
Speaker 2: And I and I think I don't think Tony Pollard

754
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 2: is the best at dragging the ball, you know, the

755
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,439
Speaker 2: pile for three or four yards. I mean, why would

756
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 2: he be, you know, I mean that's just not the

757
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,879
Speaker 2: type of runner he is. And I think the team

758
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 2: can be better at the scheme. I think the blocking

759
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 2: schemes can can get better. So you know, do they

760
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 2: need to get a running back to improve it? Do

761
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 2: they need to get better scheme? So they need to

762
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,799
Speaker 2: get better blockers up front? I'd say yes, yes, yes

763
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 2: to all of that. So but but and then to

764
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,959
Speaker 2: answer your first question, linebacker defensive tackle in the first round,

765
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 2: I mean at twenty four, if you pick at twenty four,

766
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 2: you know somebody desperately wants this pick, and you're and

767
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 2: you're sitting there and you got five six guys that

768
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 2: you're that you kind of like, hey, I'd trade back.

769
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 2: I'd pick up a third or second or for you know,

770
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,320
Speaker 2: for whatever, because you know you're not you don't have

771
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,839
Speaker 2: until before the cop picks have been you know, come out.

772
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 2: Yet you don't have a fourth, fifth, or six right now.

773
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 2: So I could see them trading back unless they are

774
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,760
Speaker 2: sitting in the war room and going, can you believe

775
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 2: this guy hasn't been picked? We had him as our

776
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 2: fifth best player and he's still there. What's wrong, Carl?

777
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 2: Did he do something? Is he in trouble? What happened.

778
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 2: Has he heard. I mean, I'm sure that that was

779
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 2: the kind of stuff happening when CD Lamb was falling.

780
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 2: They weren't going to take CD Lamb at seventeen. There's

781
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 2: no way he's not gonna get past ten. But he

782
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 2: did and he still does. And then you call and

783
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 2: make sure that you know everything's good and you and

784
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 2: you change your draft board. So at twenty four that

785
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 2: could happen. So just leave all those options open. And

786
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 2: maybe it's not a linebacker, maybe it's not defensive tackle,

787
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 2: maybe it's a position we're not even talking about, but

788
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 2: it's just their their best player. But you do that

789
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 2: if you take care of business in free agency and

790
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 2: get and make sure that you get, you know, quality

791
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,319
Speaker 2: players that can kind of fill these positions. All right,

792
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 2: let's go to Joe in Stamford, Joe Hey, one thousand color.

793
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 5: I'd say that's probably pretty poetic.

794
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 2: What do you think, I mean, if anybody was going

795
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 2: to do it, I mean it would be you, because

796
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean you've called I think you're in

797
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 2: the top three of all time calls, especially early on

798
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 2: you were calling a lot. You were the one. I'm

799
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 2: kind of carrying this thing. I thought you were number one.

800
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,239
Speaker 2: I had to go back and review the tape. I

801
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 2: thought you would be number one, but you weren't. And ironically,

802
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,840
Speaker 2: the person that did call first has never called again.

803
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 5: So yeah, that's funny.

804
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know.

805
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 5: I had that gap there of about three or four

806
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 5: weeks where the cowboys were sort of struggling and I

807
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,480
Speaker 5: was sort of struggling to get up out of bed

808
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 5: to call it ten am. But I sure have enjoyed it, Nick,

809
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 5: I've enjoyed this show a great deal. I appreciate that

810
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 5: really has given me something to look forward to. Honestly,

811
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,320
Speaker 5: I wasn't going to call the day and then you

812
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 5: said that I was a thousandth caller, and I was like,

813
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 5: well that's a badass.

814
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 9: I got a call.

815
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 2: I called you out, so that means you had to call.

816
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 2: I love it. Yeah, Well, we appreciate you absolutely.

817
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 3: Well.

818
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 5: I appreciate you too, brother. I think what you're doing

819
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 5: is great. So we were talking about free agency and

820
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,320
Speaker 5: and what we can fill in, what we should.

821
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 9: Draft for.

822
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 5: I'm looking right now at the running backs available in

823
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 5: free agency, and I think with the expansion of the

824
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 5: salary cap, I think like you were saying the other day,

825
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 5: I think it's a no brainer that we pick up

826
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 5: one of these good backs. Any of the top three

827
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 5: or four would be great. I don't know about Pollard, frankly,

828
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:26,280
Speaker 5: it depends on how much we pay, but definitely Barkley,

829
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 5: Henry Jacobs all really good choices. In my opinion, I

830
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 5: sort of lean towards Henry, but I think that we

831
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,400
Speaker 5: might have to pay him or Barkley the most. I

832
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 5: think we could do that. The running backs, even at

833
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 5: their top of what they're going to get paid, is

834
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 5: not a salary cap killer, especially if we're trying to

835
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 5: actually get markedly better for this year. So I think

836
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 5: it's a no brainer. I think we're definitely gonna do that.

837
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 5: It definitely feel as a whole. As far as the draft,

838
00:40:56,040 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 5: you know, we always do better when we picked the

839
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 5: best player available. Last year, we reached for holes in

840
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 5: the roster and we saw what happened. Now remains to

841
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:08,800
Speaker 5: be seen about.

842
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:09,400
Speaker 4: Those two young men.

843
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 5: They may end up being great. I don't really think so,

844
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 5: but they could be serviceable.

845
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:14,520
Speaker 9: We'll see.

846
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 5: But we always do better when, no matter what we make,

847
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,439
Speaker 5: it happen with the best player available. So I hope

848
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 5: that's what we do.

849
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, thanks for the call, Joe. I mean,

850
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 2: let me say this about about that though, you know,

851
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 2: I think I just said it a few minutes ago.

852
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 2: Best player available works when you're in a position to

853
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:36,719
Speaker 2: do that, When you're in positions to take the best

854
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 2: player available, then you then you you know, you can

855
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 2: do that. But if you don't, if you have some

856
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 2: holes and you know, and and it's easier to say

857
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 2: that too when you kind of you're looking at the

858
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 2: entire thing, okay, and you're like, the best player available

859
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:57,759
Speaker 2: is a is a linebacker? You know, let's say, but

860
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,399
Speaker 2: there's seven linebackers we like that are in the first,

861
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 2: you know, second or third round. But the linebackers a

862
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 2: little better than this tackle. But after this it gets

863
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 2: very very bare. So do we take the tackle now

864
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 2: and go in the second round and get a linebacker

865
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 2: because there's seven that we like. So that's where, you know,

866
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 2: when you look at it with the entire board and

867
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 2: who they have these guys and where they have them rated,

868
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 2: it's it's a little bit more difficult to say, you know,

869
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 2: just stick to your board all the time. I mean,

870
00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:36,720
Speaker 2: I remember that happened in twenty years ago Parcels' first draft,

871
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,320
Speaker 2: he takes Terrence Newman in the first round. In the

872
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:42,480
Speaker 2: second round, he wanted a tight end, but there was

873
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 2: five tight ends that he liked, and there were some

874
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 2: really good ones. There was only one center that he

875
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 2: that he could take and that was Al Johnson. So

876
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,360
Speaker 2: Al Johnson wasn't really the highest rated player, but that

877
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 2: he didn't feel like there was any other centers. He

878
00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 2: had to go get that and then one of these

879
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 2: guys he liked would still be there at tight end

880
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 2: in the third round and there was. There was a

881
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:07,799
Speaker 2: guy named Jason Whitten, so they ended up taking him

882
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 2: in the third round. Now, Jason Whitten was getting pissed

883
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 2: off and Elizabeth Tenville, Tennessee whatever it is ripping off

884
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 2: the door, off the hinges because he was pissed off. Okay,

885
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 2: sorry about the door. But it all worked out right,

886
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 2: It all worked out. Seventeen year career, going to be

887
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 2: in the Hall of Fame, Ring of Honor, all that stuff,

888
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 2: all right. And Joe the one thousandth caller, we really appreciate,

889
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 2: I appreciate you. You kind of helped get this thing

890
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 2: going off the ground. Uh, you know, there was some

891
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 2: there was a show where we didn't have any calls,

892
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,799
Speaker 2: and Chris was really mad about that, but I told

893
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 2: him to calm down. We'll be fine, they'll come. That's

894
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 2: exactly how it happened, I believe, And that's not how

895
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 2: it happens. Not how it happened. It was something like that.

896
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 2: It was it was something like that. Now I was charting,

897
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:58,440
Speaker 2: you know, I was charting the show. So I did

898
00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 2: this and I was like, this show was like, all right,

899
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,320
Speaker 2: this is easy to chart. Move to the next page.

900
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 2: Because nobody called that day. But that's what I got

901
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 2: on Twitter, and I was like, hey, I needs you

902
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 2: guys call the next show eight, the next show sixteen,

903
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 2: which is still the most that we've had in a

904
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 2: one hour show. Yeah, all right, so a producer question, Oh,

905
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,920
Speaker 2: the lines are open. Lines are open, So all right,

906
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 2: and then we're all about to be done here. But

907
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,480
Speaker 2: we can still take another caller to eight eight eight

908
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 2: eight five five two two nine seven. If you're calling

909
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 2: from a state or country that we've never had. Uh,

910
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,359
Speaker 2: definitely the countries. We've had all the states. Now, thank

911
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,840
Speaker 2: you to Mike in Boston, Massachusetts filled that up for us.

912
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 2: All Right, we got a producer question. Uh, maybe this

913
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 2: is chrispy and curious, or maybe he didn't have any

914
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 2: text lines questions either, and we're just kind of trying

915
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 2: to get through. Can I get Can I get your

916
00:44:54,640 --> 00:45:00,040
Speaker 2: thoughts on the trade deadline proposal? Pushing it back? I

917
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:05,320
Speaker 2: think it was Cleveland that is proposing that the trade

918
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:08,800
Speaker 2: deadline is just too early in the season, especially compared

919
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 2: to the other leagues. Other leagues NBA, NHL, Major League Baseball,

920
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 2: they're sitting at around fifty five, sixty, even seventy eight

921
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 2: percent of this season that has gone on when the

922
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 2: trade deadline. So in the Cowboy I mean, I'm sorry Cowboys,

923
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 2: the NFL is about forty five percent, So it's it's

924
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:30,320
Speaker 2: about week you know, that's about week six, seven, seven,

925
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 2: probably seven or eight. And so as the as the year,

926
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 2: you know, we've gone to set eighteen weeks season now

927
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 2: seventeen games with a bye, so and they really haven't

928
00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:44,480
Speaker 2: adjusted that. So that's kind of what one team is proposing,

929
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 2: and I think it's getting some traction here. But what

930
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:55,399
Speaker 2: I wonder is from the fans perspective, Yes, everyone would

931
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,439
Speaker 2: like that, So fans are liking that. What I wonder

932
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 2: is from a marketing perspective, the NFL does the NFL

933
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,919
Speaker 2: like that does because you get so you think about

934
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 2: like this early on in the season, still week six,

935
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:13,280
Speaker 2: week seven, I mean, everybody still has kind of a chance.

936
00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 2: I mean, you're still in this. You can turn things around.

937
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 2: We've seen it happen. You can turn this around and

938
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 2: and really get to where you want to go, especially

939
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:25,680
Speaker 2: with seven playoff to you know spots now. But you

940
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 2: get later on and you're like, hey, this isn't happening. Well,

941
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 2: let's trade this guy. Let's trade him because he's going

942
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 2: to be a free agent next year. Let's get something

943
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 2: for him, and let's let's trade him. And let's trade

944
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 2: this guy too and get another pick. And we already

945
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 2: got this guy injury. You know, this injury is really

946
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 2: hard on us. And we're three and six or three

947
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:46,320
Speaker 2: into I don't know whatever it would be, but you

948
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 2: know you're kind of out of it. So what it

949
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:50,279
Speaker 2: actually happened this year? I believe, Well, what are the

950
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 2: fans do? What happens then? Because you're telling everybody, you know,

951
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,759
Speaker 2: it happens in baseball. So when you say are you

952
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 2: going to be a contender? Are you going to trade

953
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 2: what you start trading. Where's the outfield stands look like

954
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,840
Speaker 2: when you start doing that? Like so that's what I

955
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,640
Speaker 2: think is the one move the NFL is worried about,

956
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 2: is do we do this too late? And then then

957
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:14,319
Speaker 2: the last month of the season when the teams are saying, well,

958
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:15,880
Speaker 2: we're kind of throwing in the red flat or the

959
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 2: white flag here, Well, then they're the fans do as well,

960
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 2: you know, and uh so that's that in ratings and

961
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff too, that it all affects it.

962
00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:30,560
Speaker 2: But I I like it. I mean, I don't think

963
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 2: it's too bad. I wouldn't go too late into the season.

964
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 2: I think you could move it a week or two back.

965
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 2: I don't think it would hurt anything. So what do

966
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:42,759
Speaker 2: you think, Chris? I mean, here's his question. No, maybe

967
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 2: he's on the line on phone. We got another caller.

968
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 2: We're gonna our last caller. What we got daytone and Maryland?

969
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 2: That's a tone in Maryland. What's up?

970
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:56,840
Speaker 5: Man, fan of yours?

971
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:57,120
Speaker 9: Man?

972
00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:02,400
Speaker 2: Appreciate it what you have too?

973
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:05,360
Speaker 9: No, no, no, no, no, no. I called before, but

974
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,279
Speaker 9: I didn't y'all muther doing the here we go thing

975
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,400
Speaker 9: at the time when I when I called here.

976
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,880
Speaker 2: You got one, you got one. We're passing. We're passing

977
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,120
Speaker 2: them out like candy today.

978
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:17,400
Speaker 3: Okay.

979
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:22,480
Speaker 9: Uh so, And basically I just woke up and I

980
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,359
Speaker 9: heard as I hurry up and clicked the out because

981
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:28,919
Speaker 9: I've been meaning to call in in general, but every

982
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 9: time I call it, usually the show is already over

983
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:33,759
Speaker 9: or something like that.

984
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:36,200
Speaker 5: So I was like, yeah, but.

985
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:39,920
Speaker 3: So I got like a.

986
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,200
Speaker 9: It's like a fantasy type of question. But do you

987
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 9: think that this will stop the uh you know, include

988
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,160
Speaker 9: the defense in a way where nobody can run on

989
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 9: us if we able to get these players, is it

990
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 9: possibly like a name one more or those?

991
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, go for it, cont you say whoever you want.

992
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:00,400
Speaker 5: All right?

993
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:09,120
Speaker 9: So okay, so say so, for instance, we got like

994
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 9: how we already got the Marcus launch, we got Micah

995
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 9: stuff like that. Okay, cool. What if we get someone

996
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:22,840
Speaker 9: like Ja Damon you know, flown me and you know

997
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 9: in the on the edge and then you know or

998
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:30,400
Speaker 9: de tackle you know, you even resign him pons and

999
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 9: get someone else like a I think it's name is

1000
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 9: al Sean Robberson me something like that.

1001
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 2: You got me on, you got me on some of

1002
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 2: those what type of what where do you think this

1003
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:42,919
Speaker 2: team needs the help type?

1004
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,800
Speaker 9: But I think I think they need help, you know,

1005
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:49,200
Speaker 9: like well, well, in my mind, I wanted to also

1006
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 9: get your opinion on this because I've been meaning it

1007
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,600
Speaker 9: so because now it's just not popped up to my head.

1008
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:55,320
Speaker 9: So I really I think they need to help on

1009
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 9: in deep in the interior. You know. I think Mica,

1010
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 9: if he get bigger, you know what I'm saying, so

1011
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 9: he can be able to be more physical in the rue.

1012
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:10,239
Speaker 9: I think also if they get two linebackers and uh,

1013
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,719
Speaker 9: in my opinion as far as Stefan Gilmore, I don't

1014
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 9: know how you feel about this, but this is where

1015
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:20,320
Speaker 9: I wanted to ask, do you feel like like because

1016
00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,160
Speaker 9: you know he kind of old and you you know,

1017
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,359
Speaker 9: I'm not saying that, you know, but you know it's

1018
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:29,520
Speaker 9: it's close to that time where you know, the speed

1019
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 9: of you know, him keeping up with these young receivers

1020
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:34,879
Speaker 9: or stuff like that might be kept getting up to him.

1021
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,040
Speaker 9: So I was thinking, do you feel like he could

1022
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,960
Speaker 9: play safety like free safety like a Elie Cooking and

1023
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:44,080
Speaker 9: you know how Luca is playing if he wasn't on

1024
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:46,520
Speaker 9: that type. But if Elie Hooker would say this is.

1025
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 5: His you know, contract year.

1026
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:50,359
Speaker 9: I mean, what this is his contract gear, But I'm

1027
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:53,239
Speaker 9: saying say it's his contract is respiring when you think

1028
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:58,440
Speaker 9: about like fitting Stephan and at free safety and think

1029
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:01,839
Speaker 9: he can do it, and and then yeah, I would,

1030
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:03,920
Speaker 9: I would get someone like how the other call of

1031
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,360
Speaker 9: the floor was like a day and hours or something

1032
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 9: like that they need in business. Yeah, and then offense,

1033
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:16,520
Speaker 9: I just think we need running back and you know,

1034
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:19,920
Speaker 9: obviously UH do something with the old line.

1035
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 5: And I think Brandon.

1036
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 9: Cooks is cool, but I still think we need we

1037
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:30,719
Speaker 9: should get someone else, you know, all right, just to

1038
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:31,840
Speaker 9: take the pressure off studio.

1039
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:33,399
Speaker 5: That's all I got.

1040
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 2: Okay, they don't appreciate that. Thanks for the call. You know,

1041
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 2: a lot of different stuff to get. I mean a

1042
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:43,400
Speaker 2: lot of things team people want out a free agency,

1043
00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:45,399
Speaker 2: and you know, I don't know if you if they're

1044
00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:48,080
Speaker 2: going to fix everything that they need or or address

1045
00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 2: them all.

1046
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:50,560
Speaker 3: You know.

1047
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:55,959
Speaker 2: I don't typically think corners just because you're a little

1048
00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:59,760
Speaker 2: bit older or you know, lost a step at corner

1049
00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:02,040
Speaker 2: the not mean you can be a safety. I think

1050
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:04,040
Speaker 2: that a lot of fans kind of think that none

1051
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,160
Speaker 2: in this case the fan Gilmore, I'm not saying that

1052
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:10,879
Speaker 2: Daytona is saying that I'm saying in this particular case,

1053
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:14,880
Speaker 2: I mean, Gilmore probably can do that. You have to

1054
00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 2: you have to understand the game. You have to be

1055
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 2: able to understand coverages. It's not just covering your guy,

1056
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 2: it's more than that. You know, you understand the whole

1057
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:27,279
Speaker 2: defense and be you know that your awareness has to

1058
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,160
Speaker 2: be up there, which I think he could do that.

1059
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 2: He also has to be willing to hit, so you know,

1060
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 2: there's been some corners that have moved it to safety

1061
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:37,960
Speaker 2: a little bit older in their career. I still think

1062
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:39,960
Speaker 2: he's a safe of a corner though, I still think

1063
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:43,840
Speaker 2: he's a cornerback. They'll probably try to get him cheaper

1064
00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:47,840
Speaker 2: since he's injured. Talking about Stefan Gilmore. But you know,

1065
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,399
Speaker 2: as for all those other positions, I mean, we'll we'll,

1066
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:53,200
Speaker 2: we'll see what they do. There's gonna be some surprises.

1067
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,000
Speaker 2: Hopefully there are good surprises. You know last year there

1068
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,759
Speaker 2: were some good ones. Well, we'll see what they do there.

1069
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:00,759
Speaker 2: And if running back is one of them, I mean

1070
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:03,120
Speaker 2: I think that you know, they have an opportunity to

1071
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,759
Speaker 2: get a running back that that you know is a

1072
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,160
Speaker 2: is a good player or has been a good player

1073
00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:10,839
