All right, we got a lot 0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:07.760 to get into today. What's that look for? 0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.479 I think it was really funny yesterday because I think 0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:12.880 some viewers maybe watched our show late in the day 0:01:12.959 --> 0:01:14.680 yesterday and heard us talking about jury. 0:01:14.480 --> 0:01:16.600 Duty, and I know, I know that's what I was 0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:17.039 gonna go for. 0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:20.200 This idea. We had no idea that was. That was 0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:21.919 the first thing that popped in my mind when everything 0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:22.399 went down this. 0:01:22.640 --> 0:01:25.320 Yes, yeah, look just to take you by and we 0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:28.399 were talking about jerry duty because I had jury duty, 0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:30.560 or I was supposed to have jury duty on Monday. 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:32.800 They sent me a message on Friday saying we don't 0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:34.920 need your services. I was like, great, I got out 0:01:34.959 --> 0:01:37.280 of it. Amber was saying, I want to be on 0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:40.440 jury so bad. And then all of a sudden we 0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:43.320 get on the report that not only was was it 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:46.680 Brandon's time, Brandon Aubrey kicker for the Dallas Cowboys, he 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.520 actually got selected and it was actually a sitting member 0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:51.840 of the jury. And I just sent the message that 0:01:52.280 --> 0:01:54.560 Amber the injury report and just kind of circled his 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:58.160 name and jury. Yeah, everybody's getting the opportunity that for 0:01:58.200 --> 0:01:59.160 some reason, they don't want you to. 0:01:59.160 --> 0:02:01.720 Be boy curious how you found out details of the 0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:03.600 on the case because. 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:03.919 He's a reporter. 0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:07.000 And the funny thing is, I've been told he's been 0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:09.000 one of the most courteous, like one of the most 0:02:09.880 --> 0:02:11.760 attention attention. 0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:15.280 Got what do you mean you've been told by people? 0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:16.760 Why would I say a source. 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:17.320 All the life. 0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:20.480 He's got people, But yeah, one of the. 0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:23.040 Most courteous, one of the more attention to detail jurors 0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:25.120 of the twelve person jury on this case. It's a 0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:28.680 third second degree strangulation case in Tarren County. 0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:31.639 That's carry wild, absolutely wild. 0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:34.160 Yeah, well, all the questions came up. I was talking 0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:35.920 to my wife last night. She's an attorney, so she 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:38.600 lives in this world. But she was just like, so, 0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:42.160 what about like Monday, Like, if this case is still 0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:44.720 going Monday, is he gonna be back in time? I 0:02:44.800 --> 0:02:47.080 was like, well, yeah, we get back early in the morning. 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:49.800 It's gonna suck for him. Monday's gonna suck really bad 0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:52.280 because if anybody knows, if you've gone through a night 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:54.440 you don't sleep very much and then you gotta go 0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.920 sit and listen to people talk all day. That's gonna suck. 0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:02.040 But once you're so lately like you're, it's not like 0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:03.280 you can get out of it. 0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:06.040 Not really not there were because I brought up the question. 0:03:06.120 --> 0:03:07.560 I was like, so, what happens if. 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:10.239 They could strike you that you've been compromised? 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:12.760 Yes, they can't. They well they have they have alternates, 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:15.120 so they could actually replace you. But I was like, 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:18.240 what happens if and I'm please don't let this happen, 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:21.239 But what happens if we're in San Francisco and something 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.880 happens with the plan, something happens with whatever, where we 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:26.600 can't get back by Monday morning, we actually have to 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:29.359 stay longer, or we get delayed, or whatever the case 0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:33.000 might be. Please don't let that happen. Right, If what happens, 0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:35.720 and she's like, I guess at that point, they probably 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:37.440 have to put one on the alternates and if he 0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:40.320 can't be there, like the expectations, if you're in if 0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:42.640 you're in town and available, you're there. But the reason 0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:45.040 why they have alternates is if there's a medical emergency, 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:46.680 if there's something that takes you out of town that 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:50.080 you weren't expecting, or you couldn't get back into yeah 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:52.440 something right, you know, something like that. But but yeah, 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:54.880 I mean, by all accounts, he's gonna have to go 0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:57.040 in if the case is still going on Monday morning, 0:03:57.080 --> 0:03:59.120 he's gonna we're gonna get back at four thirty and 0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:03.080 he'll probably report the court by eight am, sit through 0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:03.800 a day of court. 0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:09.360 It's so random and so mild that that just happened. 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.920 Like those lawyers knew what they were doing. Oh yeah, 0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:15.400 they know, they know who you are. Seriously, they know 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:19.480 your background, so they'll ask questions. Well they're they're maybe 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:22.400 not forty nine er fans, but trust me, these lawyers 0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:26.839 know who Brandon Aubrey is. The really good lawyers know 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:30.960 the backgrounds of especially if it's a very high profile case. 0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:33.479 That's part of like selecting the jury. I mean, one 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:35.200 of the great movies you've ever seen is a movie 0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:37.840 called The Runaway Jury. Jeene Hackman in it, and how 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:41.440 they go through jury selection and how they pinpoint certain 0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:43.880 jurors because their backgrounds or where they're from. 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:47.120 Lincoln Lawyer. If you guys are on Netflix, Great Show, 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:48.839 they just came up with a new season having with 0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:49.960 Great Show. 0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:53.760 Yeah, the lawyers know. They everybody knows, damn good and 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:55.640 will who Brandon Aubrey is sitting on that jury. 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:58.360 Well you have to give as even last week when 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:00.200 I was making sure I was all signed up and 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:03.040 registering everything, they ask you, who do you work for? 0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:07.039 What's your like, what's your title or what's your profession 0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:10.760 or whatever, So they know coming in like National Football 0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:14.160 League York of the Dallas Cowboys kicker like they know 0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:16.560 what his job is. They know exactly who he is. 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:21.400 So yeah, there's no we don't need this exactly, and 0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:23.400 I'm good with I'm so good with that. 0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:26.599 Sometimes though that that does help you though, if they 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:28.760 feel that they do know you well enough and you're 0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:32.000 an outspoken person. That's like for me, I was talking 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:35.279 about if you in my case, I applied, I put 0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:40.160 I was I'm a media personality, and they immediately kicked 0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:43.039 me off because they think that I'll have an opinion 0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:49.080 that will sway others. So that's what they did. Like 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:51.600 when I when we all sat down and we were 0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:54.640 doing the selection and they mean, mister Broadis, you can leave. 0:05:56.720 --> 0:05:58.760 I know I did as soon as I sat down 0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:00.839 with the group. The first one they said it was, 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:04.280 mister Brodist, you can leave, and I and I just 0:06:04.520 --> 0:06:06.440 stood up and everybody kind of looked at me, and 0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:08.480 I just walked off. I got I get donated my 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.400 six bucks back to whoever you know gets the six 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:14.679 bucks for jury duty, you know, and they. 0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:15.440 Give you six bucks. 0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:17.360 Yeah, they give you money. Yeah, they give you money 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:18.200 for being on the jury. 0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:20.000 Can you see the look on Bride's face like they're like, 0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:23.920 mister Bradis, you can leave, and He's like that it no. 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:25.040 I they got there. 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:27.599 I literally got there. I got there on the group. 0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:31.600 I got there down downtown and downtown Dallas and sat 0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:33.880 down with my group, and I was prepared. I was 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:36.800 prepared to be select. And the first guy go the 0:06:36.839 --> 0:06:39.600 first lawyer goes, mister Brodist, you can leave. And I 0:06:39.920 --> 0:06:42.080 didn't get to say a word. I stood up and 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:45.760 I just left. But they they know, they know who 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:47.080 you are, and they know your background. 0:06:47.279 --> 0:06:50.320 I think it's really funny, just because, like as any 0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:53.200 employer would do, because thinking that most people don't want 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:56.600 to be on jury duty. Was talking with with Brandon 0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:58.480 Cowboys being like, hey, we you know, we can get 0:06:58.520 --> 0:06:59.719 you out of this, and he's like, no, I want 0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:02.040 to feel my safe duty. So this is Brandon really 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:04.200 wanting to be on a jury, just like Ambar over here. 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:06.120 But the question I have is why couldn't if he 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:06.720 had deferred. 0:07:06.480 --> 0:07:07.200 It to the off season. 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:07.640 Yeah. 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:10.520 I have so many questions about this that we won't 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:10.920 get into. 0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:13.040 I love. I would love to do a jury too. 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:15.800 I think most people probably would because it's intriguing. The 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.120 problem is you just don't know what you're going to 0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:21.600 be called to case. Because what I what would be 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:26.560 like worst case for me is some long trial. Well, questered, 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:29.000 like all that kind of stuff where now you're like 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:32.240 you're old, and I'm like I couldn't. I just I'm 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.400 already I got a d D. I can't sit there 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:35.840 that long. You're telling me, I got to be there 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:38.800 for a week every day, all day shoot around here 0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:41.800 doing hour long meetings. I'm just like bawling out of 0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:43.680 my skin, like I got to get up and. 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:44.679 Move around a little different. 0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:48.840 You're listening to evidence people a case, they're going up there. 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.120 You're listening to I can do. 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:55.440 I can do it. 0:07:55.000 --> 0:07:55.880 I can for a day. 0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:58.200 I can't give you more than a day a day. 0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:00.360 Well, to bring it back to football brand, and is 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:02.480 still getting his practice time in during the week. So 0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:04.520 the day is over, he's coming to the facility and 0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:05.720 working one on one with bones. 0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:08.720 During breaks, he just goes outside and kicks exactly you might. 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:11.200 See him in the little courtyard outside the courthouse. But no, 0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:13.640 So yesterday he came in did his normal work. Today 0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:15.440 he'll come in and do his kick work and then 0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:18.240 typically he doesn't kick until game day after Thursday, and 0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:20.520 that he's going to stick to that routine and his 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:22.120 practice routine doesn't really change. 0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:24.360 It's just when he is applying that practice routine. 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:26.160 Did you get out of the courthouse yesterday? 0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:31.560 Can neither confirm or deny he got what he's. 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:32.760 Doing good for you. 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.400 He knows and he's doing good stuff. Saluting to Brandon, 0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:37.600 I appreciate the fact that people people will take their 0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:41.480 responsibility series and uh seriously and do their jobs, do 0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:44.320 their duty. All right, let's jump in. Let's talk about 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:46.400 a couple other injuries from the injury report. Is not 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:50.559 injury but on the report, Deran Bland, Michael Parson's we've 0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:54.760 talked about them. Yeah, at this point, like it's looking 0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:57.400 obviously it's looking very much like, Yeah, I don't know 0:08:57.440 --> 0:08:59.920 about Micah. With Deron, I don't even know what to 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:02.160 really think anymore, because he did have those two days 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:05.680 where he practiced full, then he didn't practice heading into 0:09:05.679 --> 0:09:08.040 the Detroit game, and then obviously he shows up and 0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:11.280 did not practice yesterday. What are you guys hearing about him? 0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:14.080 Just from the standpoint of how's he doing? Like, is 0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:17.520 this a situation where he's just not progressing or is 0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:19.480 this a situation where maybe it's a setback. 0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:22.760 Brian will probably have a better info here specifically, you 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:26.080 got but any thoughts on it though, on Bland specifically, Yeah, 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:29.200 because I think I was just diving in my notes here. 0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:32.440 I think here with Bland, definitely a setback suffered right 0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:34.480 before that Lion's game. I think the anticipation was that 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:36.280 he would return for that, and so they're trying to 0:09:36.320 --> 0:09:38.360 slowly work him back in. Yesterday he was a DNP 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:41.400 even though they expected him to be limited. Obviously not 0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:43.400 trending in the right direction, but it's still looking to 0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:44.760 be a game time decision on Sunday. 0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:47.240 Yeah, in my notes, I went back and looked, and 0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:49.800 they were hopeful, and the word I got is he's 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:53.120 not completely one hundred percent healthy, and that's what they're 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:54.960 dealing with right now. Now. They're trying to get him 0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:57.440 as close to one hundred percent as it can. And 0:09:57.480 --> 0:09:59.320 I know people out there like not all these guys 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:01.840 aren't a hundred percent, but in his case, they feel 0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:03.719 like they need to get him there to be able 0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:05.760 to do it. They're hopeful, that was the word that 0:10:05.880 --> 0:10:10.240 they were used, but not one hundred percent completely completely healthy. 0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:12.800 I think with him specifically, you get Kaylen Carson back 0:10:12.800 --> 0:10:15.240 at practice yesterday at a full participant, you don't have 0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:18.280 to activate it. You don't have to activate Deron Blaine 0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:21.120 until next Wednesday at the very latest, So if they 0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:22.720 want to wait one more week, they certainly can't. 0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:24.920 But at that point, and again going in the twenty 0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:27.679 one day rule, if they don't activate him at that point, 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:29.640 he'd be on eye off for the Seaton. So at 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:31.319 that point you got to bring him back if you 0:10:31.679 --> 0:10:33.160 plan to play in for the rest of the year, 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:34.880 even if he's injured, and that means you might just 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:36.920 have to carry him as an injured player, right, Yeah, 0:10:37.559 --> 0:10:39.679 all right, let's talk about a couple other guys, Eric 0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:44.240 Kendricks Limited, Nick Vigil Limited, Ryan f Illinoy Limited, John 0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:49.040 Stevens Limited. What particularly talking about the linebackers Kendricks and Vigil. 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:50.080 What are we hearing there? 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:53.000 Don't have anything on Vigil, but Kendricks specifically trending in 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.880 the right direction for Sunday, and he was pretty upbeat 0:10:55.960 --> 0:10:57.800 yesterday in the locker room talking about the matchup with 0:10:57.800 --> 0:11:00.360 the forty nine ers, So I would expect he but 0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:02.200 obviously just kind of monitored as we goes on. 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:05.079 Yeah, he's on with us at five o'clock today on 0:11:05.160 --> 0:11:08.920 our Player show, Always the Fan. He's he's actually a 0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:11.360 really great interview. You can ask him a million questions 0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:13.560 about anything and he'll give you an answer. 0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:16.679 Because he's got it like he's an interesting it really is, 0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:17.440 he really is. 0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:19.480 It's been really a lot of fun for us. 0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:20.280 Uh. 0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:24.160 When we asked him before the bye about you know, 0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:26.520 we said how are you feeling, he goes, I'm good, 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:28.720 and he left it at that, and we all took 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:29.200 it as. 0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:35.160 I got Williams movie, I got. 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:37.520 I got word that they're going to put him out 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:39.880 there and see what happens and see if if it 0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.000 if it works out, well, we'll see about how the 0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:45.240 practice designations go. But the plan this week was to 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:47.800 try and to try and get him out there and 0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:51.360 see if he could do some things, hopefully today. If 0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:53.680 he comes on today with us at five o'clock and 0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:57.320 says I'm good and leaves it at that, then you 0:11:57.360 --> 0:11:59.600 know he's probably not gonna play. But if he's like 0:11:59.640 --> 0:12:01.600 no man, feeling great looking forward to it, you know 0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:04.240 he gets If he gets a little bit more into it, 0:12:04.600 --> 0:12:06.800 I think you'll have a better understanding of where he's at. 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:09.000 Not that this has anything to do with his availability, 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:12.760 but if everybody recalls back to free agency. He initially 0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:15.400 agreed to sign with the forty nine ers, Yeah, and 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:17.360 then kind of flipped his commitment, if you will, to 0:12:17.440 --> 0:12:19.160 the Cowboys a couple of days later. 0:12:19.240 --> 0:12:20.760 So this is an interesting game. 0:12:20.640 --> 0:12:22.719 For him, Ryan Illinoy, what do we hear? 0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:23.960 Yeah, I don't have anything there. 0:12:24.600 --> 0:12:26.320 Yeah, nothing that I can gain from that. 0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:29.520 Or we'll see where that goes later in the week. Obviously, 0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:32.960 wide receiver is still an area for them because Brandon 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:36.080 Cooks obviously still is out. But we'll keep eyes on that. 0:12:36.520 --> 0:12:40.200 Yeah, with Cooks, I've heard it's a frustrating process kind 0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:43.000 of with him, but that he's getting treatment and he 0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:45.600 has to miss at least through the Falcons game. 0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:48.520 But the hope is that he can come back for 0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:49.920 the following week, which I believe. 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:50.760 Is the Egals. 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:53.640 Yeah, so at home, there's still a hope. There, a 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:54.520 high hope there. 0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:57.080 All right. There are a few names on the forty 0:12:57.160 --> 0:12:59.480 nine ers list. One that I didn't expect. George Kittle 0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:01.400 pops up at it did not practice with a foot 0:13:01.400 --> 0:13:04.080 injury spray foot right, Yeah, and then we knew about 0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:07.079 Deebo Samuels who was released from the hospital on Monday. 0:13:07.360 --> 0:13:11.400 Juwan Jennings remains out with a hip. They're wide received. 0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:13.720 I mean that that would be of those three, and 0:13:13.760 --> 0:13:17.480 then you take Ayuk their top four pass catchers on 0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:20.600 their team that are right now as of yesterday not practicing. 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:23.400 How much does that really? I mean, are you hearing 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:26.240 anything first of all about George Kittle and how serious 0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:27.679 this might be or is this more one of those 0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:30.120 things of he's got some discomfort sit him Just to 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:30.520 kind of. 0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:34.080 It sounded like Kyle Shanahan was trending the saying that 0:13:34.120 --> 0:13:36.440 they were going to play at him and Samuel both 0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:38.480 were gonna play. Kittle and Samuel We're going to play, 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:43.400 so we'll see how things shake out. I get some 0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:46.800 connections there. I'm waiting to ask that question at the 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:49.360 very end to see where that was. Yeah, I'm not 0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:51.440 gonna Yeah, I'm just gonna hold it till the very 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:55.360 end and hit him one time with it. Can't keep 0:13:55.400 --> 0:13:56.800 doing it all Well, if you do it all week, 0:13:56.840 --> 0:13:59.200 they're not going to tell you anything. So I'm just 0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:02.680 gonna wait till I absolutely needed. But uh, but yeah, 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:06.000 it just listened to Shanahan talk yesterday. It sounded like 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:09.360 that it kills as a foot sprain. Yeah, so man, 0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:10.120 I mean, they. 0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:11.960 Can't be running well on this brain. I wouldn't. 0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:14.079 But they've got they've got an off week the next week. 0:14:14.360 --> 0:14:17.560 I mean, so maybe. And let's be honest too, they're 0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:19.240 just as desperate as you are to get a win, 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:23.320 no doubt their team. This could be at this loss 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:25.920 if it were to happen. Put it three and five 0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:28.920 going into the bye boy, and that's that's not a 0:14:28.920 --> 0:14:30.320 good situation for them at all. 0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:32.680 I will tell you this though, And I heard this 0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:34.360 this morning on the radio. I think it was Sean 0:14:34.600 --> 0:14:36.160 on Seawan and RJ this morning. It was one of 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:38.920 the guys on that. No, no, no, it was Babe doing 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:41.720 an interview on Sewan and RJ, and he said that 0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:45.160 the thing about the forty nine ers is the last 0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:47.760 two years when they've ended up in the NFC Championship Game, 0:14:48.040 --> 0:14:50.280 they started both those seasons three and four exactly where 0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.440 they are now. Yeah, So this is a team that 0:14:52.480 --> 0:14:54.840 doesn't panic. This is a team that kind of is 0:14:54.840 --> 0:14:57.640 a slow starter, has traditionally been a slow starter, and 0:14:57.680 --> 0:15:00.040 as a team, as a season goes, they tend to 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:01.840 pick up and they get it rolling. And by the 0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:03.800 end of the season they found themselves in the NFC 0:15:03.920 --> 0:15:06.400 Championship game. So I think the point he was making 0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:09.400 is that number one that's who they are. But number 0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:12.040 two this season is far from over four teams that 0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:14.600 are three and three, three and four, whatever, there's still 0:15:14.640 --> 0:15:16.520 a lot of football. We played three and. 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:17.400 Three or. 0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:23.000 Three and three, that's who we are, Bill, Bill Parcells 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:25.080 says you are who your record says you are. 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:28.960 I don't think you would be with the injuries. I 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:31.640 don't think you would be disheartened if you're a Cowboy 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:34.320 fan if those games you lost hadn't been so just 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:37.800 all three. Yeah, I think that if if somehow, some 0:15:37.960 --> 0:15:41.880 way you got to the Atlanta game, after the Atlanta 0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:43.920 game and you were four and four with the injuries 0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:44.520 that they've. 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:47.440 Had, and you got those guys back, would be. 0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:50.080 You would be feeling pretty darn good about your situation. 0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:56.040 But those losses expose some very very potentially fatal flaws 0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:59.080 for your defense and for your offense too well. 0:15:59.120 --> 0:16:02.480 Even in the win, a lot of stuff. 0:16:03.080 --> 0:16:04.800 My hope is every week they play like they did 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:08.440 against Pittsburgh. Yeah, that that to me, I've said it before. 0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:12.440 That was a tough pretty You had your down guys, 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:14.960 you had to deal with the weather delay you're traveling. 0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:18.120 Nothing was good about that trip. That's a hard place 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:22.400 to play. Pittsburgh's playing pretty you know, pretty well right now. Yeah, 0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:23.160 so you know. 0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:26.240 What's the record? Four two two now, Yeah, it's not 0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:28.040 a bad that's a good football team that you beat 0:16:28.120 --> 0:16:29.120 up there at their place. 0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:29.840 Yeah. 0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:31.880 All right, we're gonna take our first break. We'll come back. 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:34.240 We'll jump into the San Francisco defense. Brian has his 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:37.040 breakdown force. We'll be back.

Let me just say, 0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:40.840 this man is good at his job. 0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:44.800 Florinoy ankle spraying, ankle spray from Detroit, all. 0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:48.200 Right, and then John Stephens Junior from Mike McCarthy's press 0:19:48.200 --> 0:19:49.960 are just now torn a c l out for the season. 0:19:50.400 --> 0:19:55.320 Torn a c l in as many years. That's really tough. Yeah, 0:19:55.359 --> 0:19:56.320 that's a good question as well. 0:19:57.040 --> 0:20:00.320 That sucks for him man Andrew Is this year. God, yeah, 0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:03.320 but I mean for that guy especially, he's he's trying 0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:05.159 to make a team, he's trying to kind of and 0:20:05.200 --> 0:20:09.879 he's got talent and just these these unforeseen things that happen, 0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:12.159 you know, it's the nature of being an NFL football. 0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:13.359 There's no bright side to this at all, but it 0:20:13.400 --> 0:20:16.240 does make it easier to Activatedron Blaine this weekend by 0:20:16.280 --> 0:20:18.639 just putting John Stevens on ir Now, that's true that 0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:20.560 they don't have to figure out who to take off 0:20:20.640 --> 0:20:22.160 or who to cut things of that nature. 0:20:22.240 --> 0:20:24.359 So not a bright side, but it's just it does. 0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:26.359 Make it easier for roster maneuvering if they decide to 0:20:26.400 --> 0:20:27.040 activate playing. 0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:29.080 Yeah, I feel for him, man, I hope he wish 0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:31.560 him the best as he starts the recovery. I guess 0:20:31.600 --> 0:20:32.560 from this from. 0:20:32.359 --> 0:20:35.000 This polonoial practice today, got it. 0:20:34.880 --> 0:20:37.960 Just Illinoy will be back today hopefully in practice. 0:20:38.040 --> 0:20:39.600 Sorry I didn't ask about that one earlier. 0:20:39.880 --> 0:20:41.680 No, it's all good, All good, All right, let's jump 0:20:41.680 --> 0:20:44.640 into the San Francisco defense, Brian, I was looking at 0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:47.920 some of the numbers around them. They really are their 0:20:47.960 --> 0:20:50.840 defense middle of the league when it comes to a 0:20:50.840 --> 0:20:55.680 lot of categories. Points aloud, they're sixteenth yards allowed, They're fourteenth. 0:20:55.720 --> 0:20:57.600 My question for you is, just as a big picture 0:20:57.600 --> 0:20:59.560 as you're looking at this team, are they better worse 0:20:59.600 --> 0:21:00.880 for the same than they were last year? 0:21:00.920 --> 0:21:04.680 Defensively, I think they're actually worse than they were now. 0:21:04.880 --> 0:21:07.840 I will say this just because I think that they're 0:21:07.840 --> 0:21:10.119 having to play with some different uh, they're having to 0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:12.640 play with some different pieces and every you know, everybody 0:21:12.640 --> 0:21:15.159 around the league is kind of, you know, dealing with 0:21:15.240 --> 0:21:17.440 the same thing. When you when you when you start 0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:22.679 to talk about, uh, these these defenses, and you know, Hafunga, 0:21:22.720 --> 0:21:26.159 their safety is a really good player. Javin Hargrave is 0:21:26.200 --> 0:21:28.440 not playing. He you know, he was hurt in week four. 0:21:28.960 --> 0:21:29.160 Uh. 0:21:29.160 --> 0:21:31.919 He's been a really really good player for them. They've 0:21:31.960 --> 0:21:34.160 just been kind of struggling at some different spots. 0:21:34.400 --> 0:21:34.680 Uh. 0:21:34.800 --> 0:21:36.960 People have kind of attacked them a little bit differently. 0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:39.400 But you know, it really comes down to like Nick 0:21:39.480 --> 0:21:42.679 Bosa and it comes down to Fred Warner. Uh, you know, 0:21:42.840 --> 0:21:46.440 Leonard Floyd, Uh for who they added from Buffalo, has 0:21:46.440 --> 0:21:48.120 been a good addition for them. 0:21:48.640 --> 0:21:49.560 Underrated, if you will. 0:21:49.640 --> 0:21:53.200 Under Yeah, I mean, you know, Bosa gets pressures and 0:21:53.200 --> 0:21:56.520 and so does Floyd. And Malik Collins is actually playing 0:21:56.560 --> 0:21:58.679 pretty well for him, you know, if you look at 0:21:58.680 --> 0:22:02.680 his situation. Kevin Gibbons is a defensive tackle that has 0:22:02.840 --> 0:22:04.919 kind of been on their team since he was a 0:22:04.960 --> 0:22:09.000 college free agent in twenty nineteen. He was like a 0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:12.360 rotational defensive tackle, had like three and a half four 0:22:12.359 --> 0:22:14.720 and a half sacks for a career. He's got three 0:22:14.720 --> 0:22:17.159 and a half sacks for him this year. So they've 0:22:17.200 --> 0:22:20.960 got guys that are kind of stepping up and helping 0:22:21.000 --> 0:22:24.320 them with some of their defensive stuff. But it was 0:22:24.520 --> 0:22:29.600 really interesting to watch them play the Arizona Cardinals because 0:22:29.600 --> 0:22:31.119 we all know what the Cardinals are, the pen and 0:22:31.119 --> 0:22:34.399 poll stuff that they do. But their quarterback, Kyler Murray 0:22:34.440 --> 0:22:36.440 is a pain in the ass to play against. And 0:22:36.920 --> 0:22:39.800 I say that with all due respect. Now he really 0:22:39.880 --> 0:22:42.720 his ability to There were times in that game and 0:22:42.760 --> 0:22:46.679 I'm watching it and I'm going, I go, they've got 0:22:46.760 --> 0:22:49.320 you know, and then and he pulls the ball and 0:22:49.320 --> 0:22:51.600 then it's a twenty yard gain or you know, if 0:22:51.600 --> 0:22:53.560 he hands that ball, it's going to be a loss 0:22:53.600 --> 0:22:57.400 of three. Instead he pulls it and now they've crashed 0:22:57.440 --> 0:22:59.960 everybody and he's out the gate and they don't get 0:23:00.040 --> 0:23:04.080 the linebacker over. And I mean, it's fascinating to watch 0:23:04.119 --> 0:23:06.879 teams play that have that quarterback with the ability to run, 0:23:07.440 --> 0:23:10.080 you know like that, and you know, they've had, they've 0:23:10.119 --> 0:23:12.800 dealt with some teams that have had that quarterback that 0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:15.359 does have some ability to move and it's given him 0:23:15.359 --> 0:23:17.560 a little bit of some problems, but it's still a 0:23:17.600 --> 0:23:20.320 really really good defense. In my opinion, I just feel 0:23:20.320 --> 0:23:22.320 like that. Like I say, you're going to have to 0:23:22.359 --> 0:23:25.280 find a way to be able to handle Nick Bosa 0:23:25.280 --> 0:23:27.240 in this game. And they you know he's going to 0:23:27.520 --> 0:23:30.960 He's going to flop sides, and he's actually been more 0:23:31.000 --> 0:23:34.520 productive on the right side when he comes to pressures 0:23:34.560 --> 0:23:37.240 and sacks than he does when he normally plays on 0:23:37.280 --> 0:23:40.520 the left side. So we'll see what Dallas does this week. 0:23:40.600 --> 0:23:43.600 If it's Guyton, if it's Smith, we'll see. My gut 0:23:43.640 --> 0:23:46.320 is that it'll probably be guitting over there. But yeah, 0:23:46.400 --> 0:23:48.119 you've got to find a way to take care of 0:23:48.200 --> 0:23:50.480 Nick Bosa. But I mentioned Leonard Floyd could be just 0:23:50.560 --> 0:23:52.760 as just as dangerous as a pass rusher. 0:23:52.840 --> 0:23:54.640 Let me ask you a question on the Bosa point, 0:23:54.720 --> 0:23:57.320 because from what I've seen from San Francisco this year, 0:23:57.720 --> 0:24:00.399 their pass rush kind of moves at Bosa's pace, Like 0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:02.920 when Bosa is has a high motor, they have a 0:24:03.000 --> 0:24:05.040 high motor when he's kind of down and he's reeling, 0:24:05.119 --> 0:24:06.000 the entire. 0:24:05.800 --> 0:24:06.440 Line is reeling. 0:24:06.560 --> 0:24:09.280 The only caveat I would give is Leonard Floyd just 0:24:09.320 --> 0:24:11.679 because he's he's been able to generate isolated pressure. 0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:13.800 No, I think I think your scout eye is very 0:24:13.840 --> 0:24:16.680 good on that. I think they're big four man pressure team. 0:24:16.800 --> 0:24:20.280 They don't want to bring Blitz, so how he plays 0:24:20.480 --> 0:24:22.639 is really how they kind of get going. 0:24:23.200 --> 0:24:23.400 Uh. 0:24:23.520 --> 0:24:25.240 I felt like they did a pretty good job of 0:24:25.359 --> 0:24:28.440 getting after Mahomes last week in the in the game, 0:24:28.480 --> 0:24:31.080 you know, Mahomes was having to move around a little 0:24:31.080 --> 0:24:33.240 bit in this game, and and and have to make 0:24:33.280 --> 0:24:37.119 some off platform throws. Uh. But uh, you know it's 0:24:37.200 --> 0:24:40.159 going to be about four man rush and you know 0:24:40.160 --> 0:24:43.159 they're gonna they're gonna play coverage and and uh and 0:24:43.200 --> 0:24:45.560 see if they can enforce you into a mistake that way, 0:24:45.680 --> 0:24:49.600 like a guy Fred Warner or you know Ward Uh 0:24:49.960 --> 0:24:53.200 or Lenore. The corner that they've those guys are are 0:24:53.240 --> 0:24:56.600 are pretty good corners. They've been attacking Lenore a little 0:24:56.640 --> 0:24:59.000 bit more than Ward Uh. 0:24:58.960 --> 0:25:02.080 In this nunthful. Oh that was a mouthful. Leonor I'm 0:25:02.080 --> 0:25:03.920 a little bit more than war then Lendora. 0:25:04.000 --> 0:25:08.439 Yeah, it's it's but their safety, their safety play. Mustafa, 0:25:08.560 --> 0:25:13.439 the rookie from Elite, Mustafa from Wake Forest is played 0:25:13.480 --> 0:25:18.320 really well for them, filling in for for for Hunga 0:25:19.640 --> 0:25:25.400 Hu Funga from USC. But jay Al Brown, the other 0:25:25.480 --> 0:25:30.080 safety people have kind of matched up with him, and 0:25:30.119 --> 0:25:34.120 teams have had success throwing the football on him. So, however, 0:25:34.359 --> 0:25:36.760 you could find a way to get number twenty seven 0:25:36.800 --> 0:25:39.640 into a little bit of coverage and then their nickel 0:25:40.840 --> 0:25:45.399 Ittam has also had some problems too in coverage as well. 0:25:45.520 --> 0:25:48.399 So a couple of different spots. The nickel number twenty 0:25:48.480 --> 0:25:51.159 two and the free safety are the two guys that 0:25:51.240 --> 0:25:53.720 seem to be the guys that if you can match 0:25:53.800 --> 0:25:57.040 him up or match your best up with those guys, 0:25:57.400 --> 0:25:58.920 the teams have had a little success. 0:25:59.000 --> 0:26:00.840 Sounds like a good week. Try to get CD in 0:26:00.840 --> 0:26:01.520 the slot more. 0:26:02.320 --> 0:26:06.560 Yeah, every every week, I I come out and talk 0:26:06.560 --> 0:26:09.000 about these matchups and then I watched like the Lions 0:26:09.000 --> 0:26:10.520 game and they don't move the ball with the dam 0:26:10.720 --> 0:26:13.160 And then the general manager comes on a Monday it says, 0:26:13.160 --> 0:26:15.080 we felt like we could throw the ball on the Lions, 0:26:15.080 --> 0:26:18.080 and they're like, yeah, so we did, so did I 0:26:18.240 --> 0:26:22.360 you know, but hopefully they can they can figure out 0:26:22.400 --> 0:26:24.280 a way to get that done. It's hard to run 0:26:24.320 --> 0:26:27.520 the ball in these guys because of Fred Warner. He 0:26:27.560 --> 0:26:28.679 makes it really really difficult. 0:26:28.760 --> 0:26:30.520 Might be the best middle linebacker he. 0:26:30.840 --> 0:26:35.200 Is, he is, and you put him in coverage and 0:26:34.600 --> 0:26:39.280 he's he's capable of knocking passes down, he's capable of 0:26:39.320 --> 0:26:42.520 running with guys. He gets interceptions, and my man's got 0:26:42.840 --> 0:26:45.919 like eight interceptions in his career, you know, just playing 0:26:46.000 --> 0:26:48.840 as a just playing as a linebacker. So it'll be 0:26:48.920 --> 0:26:52.119 it'll be a little bit of a difficult task, but 0:26:52.160 --> 0:26:54.159 you got to make sure that you take care of Bosa. 0:26:54.200 --> 0:26:56.400 But you can't sleep on Leonard Floyd on the other 0:26:56.520 --> 0:26:57.040 end as well. 0:26:57.280 --> 0:27:01.280 One Winners is another linebacker in that second level that's 0:27:01.320 --> 0:27:05.760 played well. Even without Greenlaw, it's still a talented second level. Obviously, 0:27:05.760 --> 0:27:07.800 green Law tours Achilles in the Super Bowl. If y'all 0:27:07.840 --> 0:27:11.400 remember last year when they have Devondre Campbell in, there's 0:27:11.440 --> 0:27:13.680 been some opportunities that they run his way and they're 0:27:13.680 --> 0:27:16.160 able to get into the second level that opposing teams 0:27:16.160 --> 0:27:17.600 have been able to kind of break some things. But 0:27:17.640 --> 0:27:20.919 also if a tight end is matched up on Devondre Campbell, 0:27:20.920 --> 0:27:22.320 they've had success against him as well. 0:27:22.440 --> 0:27:23.680 Campbell has not been good this year. 0:27:24.640 --> 0:27:26.920 The one thing I noticed that that they're actually doing 0:27:26.960 --> 0:27:29.040 really well is they're fourth in the league in turnovers 0:27:29.080 --> 0:27:31.320 right now. Yeah, my question is are they forcing a 0:27:31.359 --> 0:27:33.240 lot of turnovers or is this just a situation where 0:27:33.240 --> 0:27:36.240 they're taking advantage of teams that are just making mistakes. 0:27:36.240 --> 0:27:38.760 You know, you see a lot of times you get interceptions. 0:27:38.640 --> 0:27:41.040 It's more of a situation of overthrows and stuff like that. 0:27:41.160 --> 0:27:43.320 Or are they really getting in there and they're playing 0:27:43.359 --> 0:27:45.400 tight coverage to the point where they're getting interception, they're 0:27:45.440 --> 0:27:46.199 forcing those interception. 0:27:46.359 --> 0:27:48.200 I think they're forcing them. I think there's only been 0:27:48.240 --> 0:27:50.399 one game where they haven't had an interception. That was 0:27:50.440 --> 0:27:53.040 the Rams game. I think everybody else has been it's 0:27:53.080 --> 0:27:55.920 been one interception, one interception. I think the last three 0:27:55.920 --> 0:27:58.600 weeks it's been one two two on the game, so 0:27:58.640 --> 0:28:01.760 they've had five interceptions to the last three games. The 0:28:01.800 --> 0:28:02.919 way problem the way. 0:28:02.800 --> 0:28:05.400 They plays this is a physical secondary and I think 0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:07.720 that's even more of a problem against this Cowboys team 0:28:07.760 --> 0:28:09.760 that has not done well and has kind of been 0:28:09.800 --> 0:28:12.800 dejected when physicality has been thrown on them. 0:28:12.800 --> 0:28:15.080 So it's what we talked about. Their ability to be 0:28:15.119 --> 0:28:17.040 able to run Chris Browse, to be able to get 0:28:17.080 --> 0:28:19.480 off the line clean like those are things that have 0:28:19.520 --> 0:28:21.199 been a challenge for them and so you face a 0:28:21.240 --> 0:28:22.840 team like this. One of the things I love about 0:28:22.920 --> 0:28:25.800 Wards game like he is a very aggressive cornerback, and 0:28:26.040 --> 0:28:28.480 and if you can't beat his aggression, you're you're just done. 0:28:28.600 --> 0:28:30.600 I mean, once yours, you'll see it this week, You'll 0:28:30.600 --> 0:28:32.080 see it next week against Atlanta with a J. 0:28:32.200 --> 0:28:34.040 Terrell. You'll see it the following week in Philly with 0:28:34.080 --> 0:28:34.480 those guys. 0:28:34.480 --> 0:28:35.800 I mean, you're gonna have to figure out how to 0:28:35.800 --> 0:28:37.119 play against physicality eventually. 0:28:37.200 --> 0:28:37.680 Yep, yep. 0:28:37.840 --> 0:28:38.200 All right. 0:28:38.520 --> 0:28:40.080 One other thing I want to hit up. They are 0:28:40.120 --> 0:28:42.600 twenty third right now in red zone percentage allowed. They're 0:28:42.600 --> 0:28:44.720 not doing very well when it comes to stopping teams 0:28:44.720 --> 0:28:46.800 in the red zone. Happens to match up with an 0:28:46.800 --> 0:28:48.840 area the Cowboys haven't really been able to get going. 0:28:49.040 --> 0:28:51.040 Is this the week Dallas gets that going and they're 0:28:51.040 --> 0:28:53.840 actually able to convert touchdowns as opposed to using the 0:28:53.920 --> 0:28:56.760 jury man, mister and Brandon Aupry. 0:28:56.600 --> 0:28:59.960 Yeah, that's a jury man. Yeah, that's a fascinating step. 0:29:00.560 --> 0:29:02.600 I guess I missed that in my prep. But I 0:29:02.640 --> 0:29:07.320 think I think you're you're getting a little bit different intention, 0:29:07.360 --> 0:29:09.080 a little bit different approach coming out of the bye week. 0:29:09.120 --> 0:29:10.920 I think it's more about the Cowboys and less about 0:29:10.960 --> 0:29:13.160 the Niners trying to figure out these red zone problems. 0:29:13.400 --> 0:29:16.280 Yeah, it I think the point that Nick made earlier 0:29:16.280 --> 0:29:19.480 about how aggressive they you know, it's funny how teams 0:29:19.520 --> 0:29:22.280 do get down and they kind of lose track of 0:29:22.320 --> 0:29:24.880 their guys down there. You know, you've played against some 0:29:24.920 --> 0:29:27.520 teams that, if they've they've played against some teams that 0:29:27.520 --> 0:29:29.400 that have been able to kind of find the end 0:29:29.520 --> 0:29:32.760 zone throwing the football where going down the field, you 0:29:32.840 --> 0:29:35.280 really haven't been able to do that all that well 0:29:35.280 --> 0:29:37.960 against them. It seems like the shorter the field, the 0:29:38.040 --> 0:29:40.320 better they should be playing, but they really haven't been. 0:29:40.680 --> 0:29:42.800 And it might go back to but you're talking about 0:29:42.840 --> 0:29:46.040 with Campbell as well, the linebacker just not getting it 0:29:46.080 --> 0:29:48.480 done like you need to, uh, you know, and that 0:29:49.000 --> 0:29:51.400 it's it's been it's been a little bit of a struggle, 0:29:51.440 --> 0:29:54.760 as you mentioned Nick with him playing, but they've struggled 0:29:54.800 --> 0:29:58.840 also too with their line getting you know, getting making 0:29:58.840 --> 0:30:01.120 sure everything was buttoned up down there. There have been 0:30:01.160 --> 0:30:03.680 some guys that have been able to run some routes 0:30:03.720 --> 0:30:05.240 on them and be able to get into the end 0:30:05.320 --> 0:30:05.920 zone that way. 0:30:06.320 --> 0:30:06.760 I agree. 0:30:06.880 --> 0:30:10.560 I think it's definitely a Cowboys problem rather than who 0:30:10.600 --> 0:30:14.360 the opponent is. And obviously, when you hear a stat 0:30:14.400 --> 0:30:18.440 like that. Hopefully it should help your at least make 0:30:18.520 --> 0:30:21.440 things easier for you to get into the end zone 0:30:21.520 --> 0:30:23.720 as long as you don't throw an interception before get 0:30:23.720 --> 0:30:24.560 into the red zone. 0:30:24.600 --> 0:30:25.800 So hopefully there's that. 0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:28.480 Well, the thing is, if you look at Dallas and 0:30:28.640 --> 0:30:31.840 I think this is where Nick's wright your averaging point 0:30:31.880 --> 0:30:36.480 eight yards a rush, not even a yard, but point eight. 0:30:36.800 --> 0:30:38.480 When you're in the red zone rush and the ball, 0:30:39.000 --> 0:30:41.440 you don't have any ability to run the ball down there, 0:30:41.680 --> 0:30:44.200 you don't have any ability. And then your quarterback to me, 0:30:46.040 --> 0:30:47.840 it's very simple to say all the play call and 0:30:47.880 --> 0:30:49.720 the scheme, this and that and other, but really it's 0:30:50.040 --> 0:30:51.880 so much of a combination. I don't know if they 0:30:51.880 --> 0:30:54.880 could fix everything that goes wrong down there. They don't 0:30:54.880 --> 0:30:58.200 block particularly well. The quarterback and the receiver seem to 0:30:58.240 --> 0:31:02.480 have some type of disconnect. Get anybody open down there, 0:31:02.760 --> 0:31:04.960 and then it turns into, oh, let's try and run 0:31:05.000 --> 0:31:07.880 the ball. Well, that's a negative play or a no gain. 0:31:08.120 --> 0:31:10.840 And now you're you know, oh, it's second in you know, 0:31:10.880 --> 0:31:13.880 instead of being second in two or three, it's you know, 0:31:14.080 --> 0:31:17.440 it's second and nine. If they're inside the ten, you know, 0:31:17.520 --> 0:31:20.200 they don't just they don't get anything out of that. 0:31:20.320 --> 0:31:23.800 And well, like design some place for your quarterback to 0:31:24.320 --> 0:31:28.560 run in the red zone, like we've seen them be 0:31:28.720 --> 0:31:31.360 successful at it in the past. We've seen those plays 0:31:31.440 --> 0:31:34.880 work over and over again. Uh, now I'm getting my 0:31:34.960 --> 0:31:37.440 years confused. But there was specific year where we saw 0:31:38.200 --> 0:31:41.960 Dak getting into the end zone a few times just 0:31:42.000 --> 0:31:45.280 by running the ball, and then that disappear, Like why 0:31:45.280 --> 0:31:50.600 don't you have those plays designed for X moments in 0:31:50.640 --> 0:31:51.040 the game. 0:31:51.280 --> 0:31:53.040 I think there were some times where they've tried to 0:31:53.160 --> 0:31:55.360 with the read option stuff. They've tried to, you know, 0:31:55.640 --> 0:31:58.280 and he hands it, he gives it and you and 0:31:58.360 --> 0:32:01.000 then instead of maybe pulling it and trying to I 0:32:01.000 --> 0:32:03.160 don't know how much your quarterback really wants to run. 0:32:03.720 --> 0:32:06.000 I just don't think that's I don't I don't think 0:32:06.040 --> 0:32:09.800 he is. There was a time in his life where muddy, bloody, 0:32:10.160 --> 0:32:14.040 dirty feeling the place. You know, he was diving over people, 0:32:14.120 --> 0:32:15.720 getting helicoptered and all that. 0:32:16.000 --> 0:32:18.120 Well, I'm getting paid you that much. I expect you 0:32:18.160 --> 0:32:21.240 to do anything I need, yeah, or I asked for, 0:32:21.560 --> 0:32:22.360 or at least try. 0:32:22.360 --> 0:32:24.160 I mean to record. 0:32:27.640 --> 0:32:29.280 If you paid a lot of money, we need a 0:32:29.320 --> 0:32:30.760 little bit more sacrifice from you. 0:32:31.240 --> 0:32:35.440 I mean, what are we paying for here? I'm just saying, like, 0:32:35.480 --> 0:32:38.640 at least try. It's not about it, It's not about 0:32:38.640 --> 0:32:39.200 why you like. 0:32:39.320 --> 0:32:42.040 I think he's worried about his health. I think he 0:32:42.160 --> 0:32:43.840 really worried about his health. 0:32:43.960 --> 0:32:44.600 Are we all? 0:32:45.920 --> 0:32:47.400 One thing I did see on film that I think 0:32:47.400 --> 0:32:49.760 could work in first and ten opportunities. Whether this could 0:32:49.800 --> 0:32:52.360 be in the red zone or between the twenties, the 0:32:52.480 --> 0:32:54.280 Chiefs had a lot of success on jet sweeps with 0:32:54.280 --> 0:32:58.000 Hardman and Worthy running away from Bosa. Get involved in 0:32:58.040 --> 0:32:59.120 something like that, I think you. 0:32:59.040 --> 0:32:59.960 Could find some success. 0:33:00.120 --> 0:33:02.440 Yeah, And I think in a game like running game. 0:33:02.720 --> 0:33:04.240 But I will saying a game like this, this is 0:33:04.280 --> 0:33:07.200 where I want to see as much as anything else. 0:33:07.240 --> 0:33:08.680 I want to see if in the bye week they 0:33:08.680 --> 0:33:11.920 were able to figure out something about what they should 0:33:11.960 --> 0:33:13.560 be doing with their run game to give them more 0:33:13.600 --> 0:33:17.200 run support, Like whether that be personnel, whether that be, hey, 0:33:17.280 --> 0:33:19.920 we need to commit to Rico, whether that be we 0:33:20.000 --> 0:33:22.760 need to get Lifkey more involved. Maybe that's we got 0:33:22.760 --> 0:33:24.760 to get Dalvin Cook in the game, right. I don't 0:33:24.760 --> 0:33:27.800 know what it is, but I will be I will 0:33:27.800 --> 0:33:31.160 be disappointed if we go and finish this game. And 0:33:31.640 --> 0:33:34.840 they've done and it's not apparent that there they've done 0:33:34.880 --> 0:33:37.520 something to address the running game. If they've done nothing, 0:33:37.760 --> 0:33:40.160 then to me, that's that's a miss at this point. 0:33:40.040 --> 0:33:43.320 Maybe maybe not handing the ball to number fifteen might 0:33:43.360 --> 0:33:44.600 be the adjustment. 0:33:44.720 --> 0:33:47.680 Whatever the adjustments, I mean after the you know. 0:33:47.640 --> 0:33:50.720 After the you know, after the said the Detroit game 0:33:50.760 --> 0:33:52.760 where you were kind of you know, you were taking 0:33:52.800 --> 0:33:55.440 carries away. I just don't know how you get into 0:33:55.480 --> 0:33:58.560 the Detroit game or excuse me, the Pittsburgh game, you know, 0:33:58.840 --> 0:34:01.440 you were somewhat affected of doing that. To me, I 0:34:01.440 --> 0:34:03.960 would try and build on that. It seems like they said, 0:34:04.840 --> 0:34:07.960 let's get Zeke involved here and it really didn't work 0:34:08.000 --> 0:34:08.960 out like it needed to be. 0:34:09.200 --> 0:34:11.360 Where's the intention of getting him involved in the receiving 0:34:11.400 --> 0:34:15.640 game after the receiving season he had a year ago, Zeke, Yeah, specifically, 0:34:16.120 --> 0:34:17.760 just try to get him involved in that area. 0:34:17.760 --> 0:34:19.480 And so we want to know something interesting for me 0:34:19.960 --> 0:34:23.560 and I remember when they first drafted Zeke. I remember 0:34:23.680 --> 0:34:27.360 I was talking to coach Brown rest in Peace U 0:34:27.440 --> 0:34:29.839 and he was talking about how much he loved Zeke's game, 0:34:29.880 --> 0:34:31.560 and one of the things he mentioned, he was like, man, 0:34:31.600 --> 0:34:34.880 this guy is such a good receiver out of the backfield. 0:34:35.160 --> 0:34:37.719 He said he is. He said he is good enough 0:34:37.760 --> 0:34:39.680 that if he would have chosen at some point in 0:34:39.719 --> 0:34:42.239 his career to be a receiver, he could have made 0:34:42.239 --> 0:34:45.480 a career of it. He's that good. And And to 0:34:45.520 --> 0:34:47.160 be honest with that, I don't know the Cowboys ever, 0:34:47.239 --> 0:34:48.959 even in his prime, I don't know if they ever 0:34:49.040 --> 0:34:52.480 really took advantage of that assessment of him. Like I 0:34:52.520 --> 0:34:54.080 think they used him out of the backfield as you 0:34:54.080 --> 0:34:56.359 would use running backs, but I don't ever, I never 0:34:56.480 --> 0:35:00.319 felt like they really made him a and like they 0:35:00.440 --> 0:35:03.279 made that part of his game a critical piece in 0:35:03.320 --> 0:35:05.960 their offense. And right now I think it just kind 0:35:05.960 --> 0:35:08.080 of fits with that they still aren't doing it. But 0:35:08.200 --> 0:35:09.759 you know, again, I don't know how much that is 0:35:09.800 --> 0:35:11.480 diminished from what it was at the time when Coach 0:35:11.520 --> 0:35:12.719 Brown was making that assessment. 0:35:12.760 --> 0:35:14.560 But I don't think they've ever really taken advantage of 0:35:14.560 --> 0:35:15.839 That's really good insight. 0:35:15.880 --> 0:35:17.520 Now, all right, we're gonna take our final break. We 0:35:17.520 --> 0:35:20.640 will come back, and we got some questions sacrifice. We 0:35:20.680 --> 0:35:23.040 got some questions from you guys.

It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he 0:37:42.960 --> 0:37:45.200 learned the best thing to do is stop running and 0:37:45.400 --> 0:37:48.279 toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and 0:37:48.320 --> 0:37:51.560 T five G.

We knew that. Well, the thing is, 0:38:17.520 --> 0:38:18.600 you're a real competent. Got this. 0:38:19.040 --> 0:38:21.680 Yeah, And I was like, I don't start. 0:38:23.320 --> 0:38:25.480 Final segment of the break laugh that s WBC Mortgage 0:38:25.480 --> 0:38:26.880 Studios at the start of the segment brought to you 0:38:26.960 --> 0:38:30.960 by blockchain dot Com. Let's take some questions here from 0:38:30.960 --> 0:38:34.040 some fans. Joshua Harkin says, the Cowboys have made it 0:38:34.080 --> 0:38:36.920 clear they aren't buyers at the deadline. Does it make 0:38:37.000 --> 0:38:39.719 sense for them to actually be sellers? If so, who 0:38:39.800 --> 0:38:41.320 could you see them trading? 0:38:41.920 --> 0:38:44.840 It would make sense to be sellers. I think they 0:38:44.880 --> 0:38:47.239 could get I think any team can get value out 0:38:47.239 --> 0:38:51.680 of guys at the deadline. You know, I think a 0:38:51.680 --> 0:38:53.440 couple of years ago, I was looking at at the 0:38:53.440 --> 0:38:55.799 Dorn's Armstrong case and being like, hey, they kind of 0:38:55.800 --> 0:38:57.600 have a surplus of defensive line talent. 0:38:57.640 --> 0:38:59.759 They could trade Dorn's Armstrong in this moment and. 0:38:59.680 --> 0:39:03.440 Probably get offensive tackle help at that time or linebacker 0:39:03.480 --> 0:39:04.239 help at that time. 0:39:04.280 --> 0:39:06.160 And then they never took advantage of that. 0:39:07.120 --> 0:39:08.960 But they will get a convinced story pick for for 0:39:09.040 --> 0:39:09.759 him for sure. 0:39:09.840 --> 0:39:11.719 For sure now that now got a compensatory, so that's 0:39:11.719 --> 0:39:14.200 probably gonna be like what a fifth probably for him, Yes, 0:39:14.840 --> 0:39:17.400 but I think at this point, yeah, I mean, they 0:39:17.600 --> 0:39:19.480 definitely could sell. There are guys on this team that 0:39:19.520 --> 0:39:22.840 I feel like they they do at times have a surplus, 0:39:22.880 --> 0:39:25.640 but also with the way this team has been banged up, 0:39:25.719 --> 0:39:28.719 you might not want to dive into that surplus just yet. Yeah, 0:39:29.120 --> 0:39:30.840 like the beginning of the season, I maybe would have 0:39:30.840 --> 0:39:32.840 said defensive or defensive line in general. 0:39:33.400 --> 0:39:35.520 But you know, there's there's probably no one there that 0:39:35.520 --> 0:39:37.040 you would want to get rid of at this point. 0:39:37.080 --> 0:39:39.280 I wonder if pro Depermits would look at Damount Clark 0:39:39.320 --> 0:39:40.960 and think that they could do something with him. 0:39:41.120 --> 0:39:44.800 M that's one safeties Maybe there's. 0:39:44.600 --> 0:39:46.960 Yeah, uh, you know, I think that you kind of 0:39:47.040 --> 0:39:49.200 you're you're in a little bit of a hole right 0:39:49.239 --> 0:39:50.960 now with your safety. As a matter of fact, we 0:39:51.000 --> 0:39:53.000 you know, when we were talking about San Francisco, one 0:39:53.000 --> 0:39:55.840 of the things they did well is intermediate passing inside, 0:39:56.440 --> 0:39:58.000 you know, in the middle league. To see all those 0:39:58.040 --> 0:40:00.319 crossing routes and stuff. I'll be interested to see how 0:40:00.320 --> 0:40:03.200 Hooker and Wilson play this weekend with that and see 0:40:03.239 --> 0:40:05.200 if their eyes are in the right spot. I'd love 0:40:05.200 --> 0:40:08.160 to see. You know, you talk about you're not a 0:40:08.280 --> 0:40:10.279 very good tackling team. You don't have one of your 0:40:10.320 --> 0:40:13.400 best tacklers on the field with Marquise Bell. You know, 0:40:13.480 --> 0:40:15.960 last year it seemed like Bell made every single tax surprise. 0:40:16.000 --> 0:40:17.240 That they're not using him more. 0:40:17.120 --> 0:40:19.359 There might be something there with him and jan Yer 0:40:19.480 --> 0:40:22.040 Thomas not picking up the defense. I'm just throwing that 0:40:22.120 --> 0:40:24.240 out there. I'm not I don't know anything. I'm just saying, 0:40:24.320 --> 0:40:27.160 why would you not play those guys? You know? But 0:40:27.440 --> 0:40:28.960 I think there's gonna be a point in time where 0:40:28.960 --> 0:40:30.880 you look at Hooker and Wilson you're kind of thinking, well, 0:40:30.880 --> 0:40:33.400 maybe we should see if Bell and Thomas or one 0:40:33.400 --> 0:40:35.680 of one of them could could maybe help you a 0:40:35.719 --> 0:40:38.759 little bit. But I would I would consider I would 0:40:38.840 --> 0:40:41.640 consider looking at Demoon Clark as possible. If I was 0:40:41.680 --> 0:40:44.279 at a pro department of another team, I would call 0:40:44.320 --> 0:40:46.960 you about him. I might call you about TJ. Bass, 0:40:47.560 --> 0:40:49.880 you know, if if in fact that if you know, 0:40:49.960 --> 0:40:50.560 if there was. 0:40:50.520 --> 0:40:53.120 A Hofman maybe even get into that conversation. 0:40:52.760 --> 0:40:54.760 I would probably call you about TJ. Bass. 0:40:56.560 --> 0:40:56.680 Uh. 0:40:57.080 --> 0:41:02.040 You know, if Hoffman back the off, I would say, hey, well, 0:41:02.280 --> 0:41:04.279 what are you gonna do with safety? You know you 0:41:04.360 --> 0:41:07.239 got anything you're gonna do with Bellema. 0:41:06.320 --> 0:41:08.000 Subject does move to another subject. 0:41:08.080 --> 0:41:09.919 I would do my very best to kind of move 0:41:09.960 --> 0:41:13.200 around a little bit here. But yeah, you really can't 0:41:13.239 --> 0:41:15.839 do anything at tight in now with John Stevens being out. 0:41:15.920 --> 0:41:18.480 So that's the crew you got that's the crew you 0:41:18.520 --> 0:41:21.400 got right there. I think you could get something for Bass, 0:41:21.680 --> 0:41:22.879 you know, if you wanted to trade. 0:41:22.960 --> 0:41:24.480 We want to get rid of him, though, because I'm 0:41:24.480 --> 0:41:26.600 looking at the fact that I don't know what the 0:41:26.600 --> 0:41:29.640 future holds right now for Zach Martin. Yeah, and I 0:41:29.680 --> 0:41:32.080 think right now, if if Zach Martin does decide to 0:41:32.080 --> 0:41:34.480 move on after this year, I could see a scenario 0:41:34.520 --> 0:41:36.399 where TJ. Bass could just kind of fit in there. 0:41:36.600 --> 0:41:39.240 Kind of feel like though, that to me awesome. Richards 0:41:39.320 --> 0:41:41.160 is a better at guard than he is a tackle. 0:41:41.480 --> 0:41:43.040 Is he better than TJ Bass guard? 0:41:43.160 --> 0:41:44.640 I don't feel like he would maybe be better than 0:41:44.680 --> 0:41:46.080 TJ at right guard to film? 0:41:46.120 --> 0:41:49.280 Are you just saying if I trade, if I trade, I'm. 0:41:49.120 --> 0:41:51.720 Gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna play. I'm gonna use Richards 0:41:51.760 --> 0:41:54.040 and see where he's at and then figure it out 0:41:54.080 --> 0:41:56.080 because I'm probably gonna have to get one anyway. 0:41:56.239 --> 0:41:58.279 Would you trade? Would you trade Richards or do you 0:41:58.320 --> 0:41:59.960 think there's not as much of a market for him 0:42:00.080 --> 0:42:00.600 versus Bass. 0:42:00.640 --> 0:42:00.839 Yeah. 0:42:00.840 --> 0:42:03.399 He's from a big school North Carolina, so people might 0:42:03.440 --> 0:42:07.960 have had some some good college grades on him when 0:42:07.960 --> 0:42:10.040 he came out. I felt like you should have got 0:42:10.080 --> 0:42:13.160 picked higher than where he was. I really my fifth 0:42:13.239 --> 0:42:15.640 round pick. The thing about him is you can watch 0:42:15.680 --> 0:42:18.400 his tape in the preseason and watch him play guard 0:42:18.440 --> 0:42:21.560 and watch him play tackle. So some versatility with the 0:42:21.600 --> 0:42:24.279 guy that way, I would I would, I would take 0:42:24.760 --> 0:42:27.800 a peek at him for sure if that was the case. 0:42:27.880 --> 0:42:29.640 All right, let's get one other question before we end 0:42:29.640 --> 0:42:32.120 the show. Drew Fisher asked the question. He says, since 0:42:32.120 --> 0:42:36.000 we're obviously not using Lance as a QB and our 0:42:36.080 --> 0:42:39.040 running game has been so bad, he gives us the 0:42:39.040 --> 0:42:41.200 best chance with the big play coming out of the backfield. 0:42:41.239 --> 0:42:43.600 Possibly as a runner, he has more bursts than any 0:42:43.640 --> 0:42:46.320 of the backs. Also, could we use him to throw 0:42:46.680 --> 0:42:49.160 the ball to cause a little confusion, Yeah, he thought 0:42:49.200 --> 0:42:49.880 about using him. 0:42:49.880 --> 0:42:52.359 That sounds like creativity, which is something this offense needs. 0:42:52.640 --> 0:42:56.400 I would be open to it. You know, activating three quarterbacks, 0:42:56.440 --> 0:42:57.719 you would have to figure out where to take that 0:42:57.760 --> 0:42:58.279 away from and. 0:42:58.280 --> 0:42:59.640 A different no doubt, that's the hard part. 0:42:59.719 --> 0:43:00.560 That is the hard part. 0:43:00.600 --> 0:43:03.000 And I think maybe there was a hope that he 0:43:03.080 --> 0:43:05.120 could have been played to a level to be the 0:43:05.160 --> 0:43:07.120 backup going into the year, but they just don't feel 0:43:07.120 --> 0:43:09.960 comfortable with that. So in that in that thought process, 0:43:10.000 --> 0:43:11.879 they would have to activate all three. In case Dak 0:43:11.920 --> 0:43:13.960 went down, they would play Cooper Rush. So yeah, that's 0:43:13.960 --> 0:43:15.799 what you were we pull away from. 0:43:15.680 --> 0:43:17.600 All of a sudden, watch this play Trey Lance and 0:43:17.680 --> 0:43:19.360 to play and then him get hurt and then we 0:43:19.400 --> 0:43:21.440 don't we have him as the second quarterback and now 0:43:21.480 --> 0:43:23.160 you don't have a quarterback kind of a thing. I 0:43:23.160 --> 0:43:26.359 guess Cooper Rush would be the emergency emergency. We saw 0:43:26.360 --> 0:43:30.239 that in Cleveland last week, that Jameis Winston was the 0:43:30.280 --> 0:43:32.960 third quarterback last week and they got both their quarterbacks 0:43:33.040 --> 0:43:34.160 hurt in the game. 0:43:34.239 --> 0:43:35.680 So you can't play the third quarterback. 0:43:35.680 --> 0:43:37.719 You can't play the third quarterback. Yeah, if the other 0:43:37.760 --> 0:43:39.520 two are If the other two are out, so Cooper 0:43:39.600 --> 0:43:42.320 Rush if that was the case, make Trey Lance to 0:43:42.440 --> 0:43:45.480 two and then if you know, if if Dak goes down, 0:43:45.600 --> 0:43:47.319 finish the game with Trey Lance. 0:43:47.280 --> 0:43:49.600 Or if DA goes down, maybe say hey, Tray, yeah. 0:43:51.160 --> 0:43:53.400 This is wild, Like. 0:43:54.880 --> 0:43:59.560 I can't even picture this because that's highly unlikely that 0:43:59.600 --> 0:44:01.920 they would ever do anything like that. 0:44:01.920 --> 0:44:03.480 The forty nine ers were in a position like that 0:44:03.480 --> 0:44:05.480 in the NFC Championship Game a couple of years ago. 0:44:05.560 --> 0:44:06.800 So yeah, they can happen. 0:44:06.840 --> 0:44:10.680 But they kill for Trey Lance then yeah. 0:44:10.719 --> 0:44:12.360 So I mean Cooper Rush or Trey Lance, would you 0:44:12.400 --> 0:44:13.719 try to look at their value a little bit. 0:44:15.680 --> 0:44:16.880 That's an interesting one. 0:44:17.320 --> 0:44:19.279 I mean they're on expiring deals, you know. 0:44:20.080 --> 0:44:22.440 For Trey Lance, absolutely absolutely, I will look at that 0:44:22.480 --> 0:44:26.080 for Trey Lance. For Cooper Rush, I just until while 0:44:26.120 --> 0:44:29.400 I think the Cowboys still have a chance. I'm just 0:44:29.480 --> 0:44:33.560 not willing to sacrifice my backup quarterback, especially backup quarterback 0:44:33.600 --> 0:44:36.360 that I know from experience that I can throw in 0:44:36.400 --> 0:44:37.759 there if I need to, and he can win me 0:44:37.800 --> 0:44:40.640 a few games while my quarterback is out. So if 0:44:40.680 --> 0:44:43.480 the Cowboys are still, if they still hope that they 0:44:43.520 --> 0:44:46.239 are they can get where they're trying to go, then 0:44:46.400 --> 0:44:48.120 I just I'm not willing to give up my backup 0:44:48.200 --> 0:44:49.560 quarterback just just like that. 0:44:49.719 --> 0:44:52.920 Yep, I agree. You do have a Bendanucci as a 0:44:52.960 --> 0:44:53.440 free agent. 0:44:53.600 --> 0:45:00.000 I don't. I really don't have Benuci. Yeah, go ahead 0:45:00.080 --> 0:45:03.000 and makes a great hat. But I'm sorry, I'm just 0:45:03.320 --> 0:45:05.319 I'm not. I'm good, all right, appreciate you. 0:45:05.400 --> 0:45:07.480 On the radio, we interviewed him yesterday, did you yeah, 0:45:07.520 --> 0:45:10.319 because we asked him question about his little comments about 0:45:10.360 --> 0:45:10.840 the tours. 0:45:10.920 --> 0:45:14.480 Yeah, all right, we gotta we appreciate you guys the tours. 0:45:14.840 --> 0:45:17.400 I appreciate you guys joining us. We'll be back tomorrow 0:45:17.600 --> 0:45:20.080 for Nick Harris. Brian brought us Ambergarci.
