But 0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:21.880 if you have not seen Get On Up with Chadwick 0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:24.320 Bosan Man, it is it is amazing. Until I met 0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:28.160 Chadwick Um when he did forty two. So he came 0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:32.160 to Dallas and was doing the tour and so I 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:33.840 seen the movie and this is hot works. He when 0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:36.959 these little ho these Hollywood junkins tapped, so they they say, okay, Barry, 0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:38.800 all right, we're gonna you can go see the screening 0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:40.680 of the movie on Wednesday. Then Thursday you got a 0:01:40.720 --> 0:01:43.520 ten a m with Chadwick Boseman for fifteen minutes. And 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:45.200 so that's what how I met him when he did 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:46.880 forty two. So he did forty two where he played 0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:50.120 Jackie Robinson, and then he did um Get On Up 0:01:50.200 --> 0:01:52.680 when he portrayed James Brown, and then later on obviously 0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:56.200 became an international superstar when he did Black Panther. So um. 0:01:56.760 --> 0:01:58.600 But but it's one of it. Mean, it's just a 0:01:58.800 --> 0:02:02.360 tremendous work that he did as an act. I wasn't 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:04.320 as a person like when you met when you got 0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:06.360 to sit and talk to him a little bit humble guy, 0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:10.920 almost apologetic in a way that that I mean, because 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:13.000 you know, he just did a great time. I'm a 0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:16.000 big Jackie Robinson historian. I love Jackie Robinson. I'm just 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:19.560 a huge fan and and so and to see him 0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:22.079 portrayed so well by by Chadwick, you know. And that's 0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:23.440 the ether thing too. And you guys have seen enough 0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:26.280 movies where would people try to play parts. You're like, ah, 0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:28.600 that guy didn't ail it. Yeah, you know, I don't 0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:31.000 believe that. You believed it with Chadwick post and the 0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:35.079 dignity that he had and understanding also the job he 0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:38.040 did and that Okay, I am representing Jackie Robinson and 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:40.239 the legacy and what this man did and how this 0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:43.640 man not only just broke baseball color barrier the modernate 0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:46.200 color bearer, that he really sparked the civil rights movement 0:02:46.560 --> 0:02:48.440 and what he was able to do and just everything 0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:50.239 that came with it. And that was what I was 0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:52.480 so impressed with him as a as a young man. 0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:56.040 But yeah, but he as James Brown, would find his 0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:58.440 band whenever a would do something wrong. If you off 0:02:58.639 --> 0:03:01.600 step band, you late for practice twenty dollars he ended 0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:06.760 up with no band, but he did twenty dollars back then. 0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:08.560 That's a lot of money they did. Did get tired 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:15.359 to get James get my money back. Jane, we don't. 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:18.000 We don't find each other here on the players lounge. 0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:21.200 I knew he scrus long time. If we did, my 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:23.720 man who taking the most bacases I've ever seen them? 0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:28.720 Heck of a tab. Wow, that's how we're gonna do 0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:30.840 today's show. We would be eating it, Nick and Sam 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:34.880 and Land What yeah, Koby steak, that's how. That's how 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:37.560 we're gonna do it. I don't I don't even drink, 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:40.920 and I could have a drink tab based church. Welcome back, 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:44.360 Welcome back. You're gonna quit, y'all gonna quit putting these 0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:48.280 antics on me. You know here, we listen. We know 0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:50.200 you have to go and get your spirits right for 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:52.360 Nostradamin so he could get back on point because he 0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:54.840 was last week. So we fought a little bit. You know, 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:58.800 I wasn't you know a little bit. I ain't a 0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:01.160 little bit. I still got to see what the main 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:04.320 I've got. I've got the handy dandy, go ahead, whip 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:07.360 that out there, ahead with that that handy dandy note book, 0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:10.120 the man. Out of fourteen games that he picked, he 0:04:10.240 --> 0:04:14.720 got five of them correct. To warm up, straight straight up, 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:19.719 Church was five wins and nine losses. Against the spread, 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:23.360 he had three wins and eleven losses. Don't get too 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:27.159 much worse, lookin'. That's the main bet. The only bet 0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:31.320 that we really got going is the Cowboys gonna make 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:33.600 it to the to the playoffs represent the NFC East. 0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:36.400 And I still got a chance on that. So that's 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:37.600 all that matters at the end of the day. So 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:39.400 what he's saying, what he's saying is the rest of 0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:41.200 that stuff didn't matter one game at the time. The 0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:45.640 past doesn't matter. Are you still living in the past. Yeah, 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:48.599 we were second right now, you first of the division, 0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:50.480 so you still got you still got got a chance. Man, 0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:52.480 But we got a chance. That's all that That's all 0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:54.720 you need is a chance. I mean you guys over there, 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:56.640 see that's see, that's the that's the problem right now 0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:59.400 in this locker room. It's too much negativity, too much 0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:02.080 pointing for And you got the captains of the Haters 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:05.760 Club over there and Nui and see if they were people, ladies, 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:08.080 and if these were your captains on the Dallas College 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:10.200 we might we might not even win another game because 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:12.400 there's so much negativity with these two. But your boy 0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:15.599 nor Damas be church over here. I'm bringing the positivity 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:18.240 and I'm going to lead us to the NFC East Championship. 0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:21.280 You know what I'm saying. Oh, if you ended up 0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:25.039 making any of these bets Barry made last week, please 0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:29.600 tweet me. See what I mean? The church? Have you 0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:35.400 losing your money? Your rent check?

North, 0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:39.080 They probably got shorts on. It's good weather man. And 0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:40.840 then if yea, I know y'all can't see this, but 0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:42.640 he got the matching coat to go with the ski 0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:45.600 pass over there that y'all can't see it. Man, he's 0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:48.880 fully ready. Man, Yes, I mean, here's the beauty of 0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:51.360 when you live up north. So I lived in Cleveland. 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:53.680 I tell me I lived in Cleveland. Two winters, all right, 0:06:54.000 --> 0:06:56.640 that's all. I could take. Two win in Cleveland. Browns 0:06:56.760 --> 0:06:59.400 left town too. I was like, it's like, man, if 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:02.640 the Browns are going, so am I. And the first 0:07:02.720 --> 0:07:06.800 time I ever met Bill Belichick, somebody introduced me to 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:09.160 Coach because I was working for it for a Channel 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:11.360 five up there, and and it introduced me and coach. 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:13.560 Coach looked at me and said not to thinkes coach 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:15.720 you owned. I said, yeah, said you'll be buying a 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:22.160 new one. And he was right, and he said double layer. 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:24.760 I didn't know what he meant. I had no clue 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:28.120 what a double layered coat was. And I tell people, man, 0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:30.760 I moved out there. I went in debt buying clothes. 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:32.920 I never heard of man, it never heard of the Skipper. 0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:35.440 I ain't had none of that. The Columbia on right now, 0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:39.440 I never heard of the columb never heard of nothing. Man. 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:42.880 I was like, I don't want to wear any long underwear. 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:47.040 Man didn't went to my first Browns game.

I was miserable, man, and then I made 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:54.760 us and then me being stupid, I stood in the 0:07:54.840 --> 0:07:58.680 end zone. I get hit with batteries and stuff. I 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:01.480 don't play for nobody. It was it was a you know, 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:04.840 dog bones throwing. I mean, it was just a different experience, man. 0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:07.200 But I came out there cold. And so the lesson 0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:10.680 I learned was and it was about layering. Come with 0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:13.160 come with many layers, and you can peel them off. 0:08:13.400 --> 0:08:16.080 But if you don't have nothing and you can't putting that, no, man, 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:17.720 you gonna get got. So I'm out here with just 0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:20.040 my regular jeans that I brought from Texas, thinking now 0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:22.000 that's gonna be good. Man.

Hey, 0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:30.320 guy's a real contract that you ain't a real dude, 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.240 You're just a camera man. Hey. I don't know, man, 0:10:32.280 --> 0:10:34.480 I see what I'm saying. See what I'm saying. Thought 0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:38.640 that was not wrong about cameraman at all. That's wrong 0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:40.520 now here. Like I'm just you know, I'm just want 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:43.160 of the dudes that's helping somebody else. Like. Nah. Man, No, 0:10:43.760 --> 0:10:45.920 I couldn't wait to find the slow to shoot what 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:49.400 I want. I'm just speaking facts, man, y'all. I'm just 0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:55.040 saying true. Sitting back there in right now, I just 0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:57.199 go off on what said. That's it. That's all. I 0:10:57.280 --> 0:10:59.160 just go off on what it's being said. That's it. 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:01.960 I see how it is. I'm not worried. I'm not worried. 0:11:02.000 --> 0:11:07.360 I got time. Speaking of Philadelphia, gentleman, Cowboys are most 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:09.920 likely gonna have Ben de Nucci as a starting quarterback. 0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:12.840 Andy Dalton has been a cacussion protocol, and Mike McCarthy 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:14.719 said earlier in the week, Hey, look, it's gonna have 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:16.679 to be you know, we have to see something from 0:11:16.679 --> 0:11:18.240 Andy at the end of the week. And we still 0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:19.920 don't know if he's out of cacussion protocol. And you 0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:22.040 guys saw how bad that it was, that cheap shot 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:24.959 he took. And and Ben is out here working with 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:28.040 the first team. So I'm expecting to see Ben de 0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.880 Nucci make his first NFL started against the Philadelphia Eagles. 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:36.120 The line is up to nine, and you're excited, he said, 0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:40.439 you're excited to see? Is that what you said? No, 0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:48.559 I didn't say that. You said you know something we don't. 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:51.959 He's going on the excitement. You ready to see or 0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:54.120 you you hoping, Let's see what the young guy got. 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:56.240 I'm ready to see what he got. I'm ready to see. 0:11:56.280 --> 0:11:58.240 I'm ready to see what this young man can do. 0:11:58.320 --> 0:12:00.719 It's gonna be a tough challenge for him, and the 0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:03.120 odds are stacked against him, and I know Jim Schwartz 0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:05.400 is going but I'm anxious to just you know, let's 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:08.040 see what let's just see. Let's let's see what didn't 0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:12.400 get done. So we went from we went from you 0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:15.000 know that getting hurt to Andy Dalton might still be 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:17.400 able to carry us. So now I'm excited to see Ben, 0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:19.640 want to see what it can do because okay, let 0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:29.360 me let me finish at this point in time, and 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:31.600 I already said this season's over. There's just too many 0:12:31.640 --> 0:12:33.040 injuries and too many things, and I'll be able to 0:12:33.080 --> 0:12:34.760 come back trump. So you know what I want to see. 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:37.280 Let me see some of these kids and start to 0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:39.880 see exactly who do you have on this roster. It's 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:41.040 a bunch of guys that we didn't get to see 0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:42.679 in the preseason. We didn't get to see him in 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:45.080 no tas. So you know, the Neville Gallimore's of the world, 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:47.439 the Ben de Nucci's in the world. Um, you know, 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:49.679 let's see Francis Leo, Let's see some of these other guys. 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:52.920 See what you have and know what you've got going 0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:56.160 into twenty twenty one. Here you need to walk away 0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:58.960 from this season, in my opinion, know with a checklist, 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:00.719 this is what this guy can do. Well, this is 0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:03.000 what this guy can do. Figure it all out as 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:05.240 you going in next year, because if they are tied 0:13:05.320 --> 0:13:07.199 up against a salary cap, because they say the salary 0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:08.880 cap is gonna be lower. What do you need? You 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:11.319 need young players here who you feel like have some 0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:13.679 type of future. When I go back to when Jimmy 0:13:13.760 --> 0:13:16.040 Johnson was here with the Cowboys at one to fifteen season, 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:17.679 you know, they did a whole lot of evalue in 0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:20.640 and they started looking at guys that they can't who's 0:13:20.640 --> 0:13:22.600 somebody we can have stick around, Who's somebody we can't. 0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:24.400 And you know what, four years later, Jimmy he was 0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:27.120 hosting a Super Bowl trophy with the Cowboys. So if 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:29.079 this season is gonna be gone, at least, let me 0:13:29.160 --> 0:13:31.559 know what do I have. It's been Denuccia, guy that 0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:33.800 you look at and shows you enough, hard enough guts 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:35.439 that you say, hey, we feel like this can be 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:37.920 a backup quarterback for us. Then that's good. If you 0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:39.599 got a backup quarterback on a rookie deal and it 0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:42.079 saves you from having to spend three four five million 0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:45.520 dollars like we're seeing other NFL teams spend on backup quarterbacks. 0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:48.280 And that's a good thing. They drafted him. Let's see 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:50.200 what he can do. Some of these other kids, now, 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:52.520 let's see what they Okay, Everson Griffin is gone now, 0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:56.000 Let's see what Randy Gregory can do. You hurt Mike 0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:59.000 McCarthy reference Doran's arms. Okay, let's see, let's see what 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:01.680 you can do. Let me let me get this nucie 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:03.319 thing all right, let me let me let me understand. 0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:06.600 So we signed Andy Dalton to be the best backup 0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:09.520 quarterback in the league, right, and then when he gets 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:11.520 his chance, so we can see if he's that guy 0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:14.720 to where we possibly end up in this situation again 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:16.839 next year when when he finally gets the chance to 0:14:16.880 --> 0:14:19.080 show up, that's him. You want to see if a 0:14:19.160 --> 0:14:22.280 guy behind him it's good enough. So what happens If 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:24.560 he's not, then you don't know anything about Andy Dalton 0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:26.480 and you still sit in the same situation that you're 0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:29.200 right now. Andy. Okay, here's how I viewed Andy Dalton. 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:33.000 And you guys were young here when Bernie Cozar ended 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:36.640 up becoming the backup quarterback for Troy and Troy gets 0:14:36.720 --> 0:14:38.760 knocked out of the NFC Championship game and Bernie comes 0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:40.320 off the bench and saves the day and wins the 0:14:40.360 --> 0:14:42.520 game and Cowboys go to Super Bowl, That's how I 0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:44.200 looked at him. I looked him like he see Burline 0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:46.040 was so Steve Burline was a backup here. You know, 0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:48.720 these were on competing teams at this point in time. 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:50.720 This team is this team, and I don't care if 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:52.480 they're one game out of first place. I'm being a 0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:55.360 realist about realist about what's going on here. Sorry Church, 0:14:57.640 --> 0:14:59.800 Sorry Church, I don't. I just think there's been too 0:14:59.840 --> 0:15:01.480 many anythings that have happened here for this team to 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:05.280 win the NFC East. So don't waste my season. If 0:15:05.280 --> 0:15:07.240 I'm a vent on the team, do not waste my season. 0:15:07.520 --> 0:15:10.760 Put Andy Dalton out there if let us. If Andy's 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:15.600 not healthy to go the next game, that's fine, But 0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:18.760 I'm not excited to see Ben. I'm excited to see 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:20.880 if Andy Dalton can play any of he's not, then 0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:23.400 I hope that Ben the News can be serviceable and he, 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:25.120 you know, he can make us do something. Can you 0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:27.480 have Can you have both situations? Because right now, if 0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:29.720 you can't have both, I don't. I don't want us 0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:31.360 to look horrible. So I'm not excited for us to 0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:33.560 try out there our third team quarterback with with with 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:37.240 a shaky offensive line and in a running game there's 0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:38.880 none existent. I'm not I'm not. This is what the 0:15:38.960 --> 0:15:41.680 challenge is though, But this is what the challenge. You 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:46.200 talk about, Going up a mountain is the challenge. It's 0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:49.480 a big challenge. But look, man, with you guys mentality, 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:52.680 there's there's no way we were winning. The season's over already, 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:55.160 were half a game out of first place and neewa, 0:15:55.240 --> 0:15:58.200 ye're over there, ready to scrap the whole thing, throw 0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:01.560 it away. I mean, this is this is ridiculous to me. Look, 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:04.120 stacks are against the odds, we're against odys right now. 0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:06.880 We all we lost basically our whole habitive line minus 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:09.640 Zach Martin Zeke hasn't been what we thought he would be. 0:16:10.000 --> 0:16:12.920 Our receiving corps. You know, when Dak left, they left 0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:16.080 as well. But look, man, we still a half game out. 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:18.400 The Nucci. I don't think the new chie is the answer, 0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:21.080 but you gotta try to him out there. If Andy 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:23.400 Dulin's not healthy, so you gotta have somebody out there. 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:25.680 So the Nuchi. Look, he gives us our best opportunity 0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:28.280 to win. We're gonna put said Wilson back there at quarterback. 0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:32.000 Now he runs twenty one hours. I mean he had 0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:33.880 to win at his back that day he went twenty 0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:37.880 one just feel a lot of negatives, I say, but 0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:41.400 what I will a lot of negativity. I will say this, No, 0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:45.720 it's just called the fun Town Army. You ain't having 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:48.600 no fun. It's not negativity. I'm just I'm confusing. While 0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:50.520 you said you excited to see Been the nuci like 0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:52.600 we've been waiting waiting for his turn. Hopefully he can 0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:54.440 come in. Hopefully he can come in and provide some 0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:56.720 type of juice. I know what it is with Church though, 0:16:56.720 --> 0:16:58.760 what you're talking about Church. So Church played on a 0:16:59.000 --> 0:17:02.560 five and eleviteam really a four twelve team. Then he 0:17:02.600 --> 0:17:05.720 went up to Jacksonville, so his mind is conditioned to 0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:08.920 be optimistic throughout a horrible season. So that's what it 0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:12.840 is that they're not even halfway through that stuff that 0:17:13.720 --> 0:17:15.639 we're not even have. And look, I do agree with 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:17.400 you on this point, Knui. We do need to see 0:17:17.440 --> 0:17:19.800 this young talent get in. But the reason I'm saying 0:17:19.800 --> 0:17:21.359 that is because the talent in front of him the 0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:23.320 older time, they haven't been doing nothing. So I'm not 0:17:23.400 --> 0:17:25.720 saying throw the young talent in because the season scrapped. 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:27.680 I'm saying we gotta throw this young talent in because 0:17:27.680 --> 0:17:30.240 maybe they'll provide something, they'll give us some type of juice. 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:33.000 Sealed the game for us when when he first came 0:17:33.040 --> 0:17:34.880 in the game with that got hurt. That last week 0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:37.160 he got injured. I mean I would rather I would 0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:42.240 have Andy don't knot. So are you excited? No. Earlier 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:44.159 in the week, I let y'all know, you know the Nucci, 0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:46.720 you know, I just I don't think he's the answer. 0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:49.560 But I mean, if there's no healthy you know, Andy don't, 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:51.239 he's got to go out there and maybe he can 0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:52.960 do socking. Yeah, but I'm saying, are you excited to 0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:55.080 see that? No? Because we're down to the last. That 0:17:55.119 --> 0:17:59.240 means we're not the last right now. That's my only thing. 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:01.119 I knew. He said he's excited to see what the 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:04.160 Nuci can do. And I'm like, I'm not. I'm just glad. 0:18:04.280 --> 0:18:06.200 I'm glad my boy knew. He is bringing some type 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:11.119 of positivity. Man, I love it. Come on, come on, 0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:14.760 I'm here in the fun town RV. And I'm excited 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:17.639 to see what what young Benda Nuci can do and 0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:20.760 to see what type you know, I want to, you know, 0:18:21.000 --> 0:18:23.199 the things that I'm looking for, see some toughness from 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:25.120 the guy. The ability to get it in. I said, 0:18:25.280 --> 0:18:27.800 standing back, he has some good points to the ability 0:18:27.840 --> 0:18:30.360 to call to play. This is a tough situation. Let's 0:18:30.359 --> 0:18:32.840 see what you can do with this. Let's find out 0:18:32.880 --> 0:18:35.080 about the medal of the young man. Let's let's do that. 0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:38.440 As long if we can get the ball out of 0:18:38.480 --> 0:18:42.240 this guy's hand quick we can get the ball out 0:18:42.280 --> 0:18:44.640 of his hands quickly, like get him in a three 0:18:44.680 --> 0:18:48.480 step one, he might have a little bit of success. 0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:51.720 We can get Zeke to be even half a wet 0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:54.280 you know he used to be, we might have a 0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:56.480 little success. I'm just not ready to throw the book 0:18:56.480 --> 0:18:58.040 in on the kid that goes for all three of 0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:01.040 our quarterbacks. This is true. So Dak Prescott had to 0:19:01.040 --> 0:19:02.560 play he roball to get it done with this with 0:19:02.640 --> 0:19:06.760 this office Andy dontand got knocked out of the game 0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:09.160 with this quarterback with this with this team and didn't 0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:11.040
