Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.

Speaker 2: Cowboys.

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 1: This is Cowboys Storyline presented by Gillette, the official shave

5
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:18,600
Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys.

6
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 3: Here's Nick Eatman. Good morning, Welcome to Cowboys Storyline presented

7
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 3: by Gillette. I'm Nick Eatman, which Wednesday, December of the tenth,

8
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:35,199
Speaker 3: Cowboys take on the Minnesota Vikings Sunday Night on NBC

9
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 3: Sunday Night Football at at and T Stadium. You know,

10
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 3: you always wonder when they when the league puts out

11
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 3: these games like that, and uh, you know, is this

12
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 3: gonna be one of those those big, big time matchups

13
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 3: and you know there might be some over there at

14
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 3: NBC that's like, oh, I wish this game was a

15
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 3: little bit more meaningful. But first of all, it is

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 3: the Cowboys, and we know what the Cowboys can draw big,

17
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 3: big numbers. But in this kind of what what December

18
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 3: football is all about, you know, survive in advanced type thing,

19
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 3: hang on for dear life. You can't get more of

20
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 3: a desperation type game. This is the Desperation Bowl between

21
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 3: the the Vikings and the Cowboys. I looked at the

22
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 3: standings and bottom two teams in the NFC that are

23
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 3: still they don't have that asterisk, you know, they haven't

24
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 3: been eliminated yet, Vikings and Cowboys. So they're they're they're

25
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 3: hanging on the winner of this game. If there is

26
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 3: a winner. I guess we have to always qualify that.

27
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 3: But the winner of this game will will, you know,

28
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 3: at least be in decent shape again for the next week.

29
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 3: The losers, I don't know. I guess you're pretty much

30
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 3: out of it. Maybe not mathematically but for all intents

31
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 3: and purposes, And they might be already but not yet,

32
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 3: so we're gonna still talk about it. Eight ah eight

33
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 3: eight five five to two nine seven. Irene from Falls Church,

34
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 3: Virginia's first Irene, what's up?

35
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 4: Good morning, good, How are you good? Okay to two questions, Well,

36
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 4: one is the comment. So my biggest concern obviously for

37
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 4: this game coming up, is that I didn't actually realize

38
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 4: the Vikings were this good. But they're like top ten

39
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 4: in defense. I know their offense has been struggling except

40
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 4: for last week, but it reminds me of the Bears game,

41
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 4: at least when the Bears were given better on defense

42
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 4: and then the Panthers game, so hopefully we can keep

43
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 4: it close and pull it out with having a much

44
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 4: better offense. But you know, let's see. But then I

45
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 4: have a question for not for you, I have a

46
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 4: question for the emplier. When Thursday night rolled around and

47
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 4: Diggs was not playing, all I could think was Nick

48
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 4: mentioned there's a contract thing here, and are they thinking

49
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 4: that after three wins, maybe we don't need Trayvon. Let's

50
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 4: see if we can do this without him. And so

51
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 4: my question for you, I don't know if you know

52
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 4: all the details of this contract thing, but is it

53
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 4: going to help them? I don't care about their cash.

54
00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 4: I really don't care about their cash, but is it

55
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 4: going to help them with cap savings if they if

56
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 4: he doesn't play, because there could be an argument to

57
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 4: be made that, Okay, well this season. I know we're

58
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 4: still technically in it, but maybe they're they're hedging their

59
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 4: DUTs and they say, hey, if we can save a

60
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 4: little money and make twenty twenty six better because of it,

61
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 4: maybe that's what they think. So if you could comment

62
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 4: on that, that'd be great.

63
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 3: Thank you so much, real appreciate the call. You're onto

64
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 3: something I think, and I again I don't really know

65
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 3: I don't. I don't know all the details of it.

66
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 3: I've heard about savings on getting money back insurance type

67
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 3: situation that really it is when you have a guy

68
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 3: that that's been injured and you has he has guaranteed money,

69
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 3: then he had you know, clauses in his contract. You

70
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 3: can get some money back in this case. I haven't,

71
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 3: you know, really dug into that. I've heard that that

72
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 3: that's the situation. But this thing is is kind of

73
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 3: changed over the you know, the last few months. I mean,

74
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 3: we didn't even know that Trayvon was really gonna go

75
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 3: to IR, and then he goes to IR and then

76
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 3: he's been out for now it's been six games. So

77
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 3: it's more to it than swelling in the knee and

78
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 3: or even a concussion. I there's there's more to this,

79
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 3: and I really wasn't trying to imply some things. I

80
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 3: can dance around the subject a little bit, and that's

81
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 3: that's what That's what I've I've tried to do because

82
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 3: I don't really understand it. I got asked on the radio,

83
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 3: is he today this morning? Is there a green light

84
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 3: for for Trayvon Diggs this week? And I just said, guys,

85
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:41,919
Speaker 3: it'll be a flashing yellow light regarding him forever. That's

86
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 3: just the way I'm taking it forever. It's always flashing

87
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 3: yellow caution when I when I'm asked about him, because

88
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 3: I just don't know. I wish I did, I don't.

89
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 3: I'd like to see him out there though, because I

90
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 3: think he's really good, and you know, the best should

91
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 3: play the best, and if Justin Jefferson, what do I

92
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 3: just feel like this is going to be an AJ

93
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 3: Brown type situation where you know, what's wrong with AJ

94
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 3: Brown and then he goes out and has a huge

95
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 3: game against the Cowboys. I just the same with was

96
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 3: it Harrison Arizona? You know, hadn't had a good game

97
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 3: at all this year? Marvin Harrison Junior goes against the Cowboys.

98
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm expecting Justin Jefferson to kind of get

99
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 3: back into, uh, you know, the type of the type

100
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 3: of player that that he's he's been. But we'll see.

101
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to Michael Bowling Green, Kentucky.

102
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 5: All right, I got a couple of quick questions in

103
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 5: a score. The questions are that, you know, just like

104
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 5: you just talked about Jefferson, he's a big threat. What

105
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 5: do you think the Cowboys are going to do to

106
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 5: try to slow him down. Maybe Diggs is it there

107
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 5: or the you know what do you think what do

108
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 5: you think their game plan is going to be to

109
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 5: try to slow him down? And the other question is

110
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 5: with a ten day rest, do you say I think

111
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 5: the running game or get back the Cowboys running game

112
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 5: will get back to where it was in the first

113
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 5: half of the seed.

114
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's that's gonna be the key to anything.

115
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 3: Thanks for the call, Michael. Two good questions. The key

116
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 3: to having that kind of success on offense is to

117
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 3: be balanced, and to be balanced, you've got to run it.

118
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 3: The thing about it is is they they're committed to it.

119
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 3: They still run it. But against the Lions, it was

120
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 3: there wasn't a lot of success there. You know, two yards,

121
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 3: three yards you just didn't see You didn't just pop

122
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 3: a big run of fifteen yard twenty yards or anything

123
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 3: like that. So that that was that was part of it.

124
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 3: But yeah, they're going to be committed to it. So

125
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 3: for sure, you know, how can they scheme things up

126
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 3: to to be you know a little bit better there?

127
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 3: And you know, I know it sound like you guys

128
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 3: a little bit when I say this, but you know,

129
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 3: I feel like Hunter Lipke can help, you know, I

130
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 3: feel like he can help a little bit more in

131
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 3: the offense a little bit. I'd like to see him

132
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 3: out there more than Schoonmaker really because I just think

133
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 3: you've got a little bit more flexibility in what you're

134
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 3: trying to do. They passed the ball to Schoonmaker a lot.

135
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 3: I feel like every time they get the ball into

136
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 3: to Lipkey's hands, he's doing something positive, So I don't know,

137
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 3: And maybe as a lead blocker he can kind of

138
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 3: provide that as well. So I'd like to see him

139
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 3: out there more. And then as far as the defense

140
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 3: goes and how to stop Jefferson, I could just say,

141
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 3: put on the tape, what are the other teams doing?

142
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 2: You know?

143
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean he's just really you know, he

144
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 3: hasn't had like a great Pro Bowl type year, but

145
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 3: when he looked at the numbers, I mean he ranks

146
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 3: fourteenth and fifteenth, like in catches in yards. I can't

147
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 3: remember which ones at which, but it's like sixty four catches,

148
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 3: eight hundred and ten yards, it's one of them, fourteenth

149
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 3: ones fifteenth, So you know in the NFL, that's where

150
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 3: he is in the NFL. So in the NFC, he's

151
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 3: probably you know, and that's depending on what those standings,

152
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 3: the rankings look like, but he's probably in you know,

153
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 3: six to seven eight something like that in each one.

154
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 3: So I mean that's kind of on the verge of

155
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 3: Pro Bowl really. So so it's not it hasn't been

156
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 3: a horrible year, but I guarantee if you have him

157
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 3: on your fantasy team, you're probably not loving the production

158
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 3: of the lack of production from him. Tyler in the

159
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 3: state of Washington, what's up?

160
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:33,959
Speaker 6: So it's Skyler. So I just curious about Shoddy his

161
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 6: habits in the red zone, Holme Blade. It's kind of

162
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 6: reminisces of being with the Sea Hawks in that twenty

163
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 6: fifteen sixteen Super Bowl, seems like, and I wonder why

164
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 6: he can't break those tendencies of getting away from the

165
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 6: run and forcing passes and you know, tighter situations than

166
00:08:55,400 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 6: you know, compared to where how Sorry, but that's just

167
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,839
Speaker 6: he just seems to have habits to throw the ball

168
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,439
Speaker 6: a lot and within the ten yard line. So that

169
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 6: cost us a couple of games this season.

170
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,439
Speaker 3: Uh, I'm sorry, I'm having a hard time hearing you.

171
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 3: Are you saying his his play calling in the red

172
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 3: zone you think has cost some games this year.

173
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, just reministions of like when he was with the

174
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 6: Seahawks in fifteen and sixteen when they caught him the

175
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 6: Super Bowl off the one yard line, they decided the

176
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 6: pass the ball. Yeah, well it just kind of figs

177
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 6: something he learned over time with the coaches he's learned from.

178
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:33,559
Speaker 6: I don't know.

179
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, okay, good good stuff there. I don't think

180
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 3: I guess he was he there was he there for

181
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 3: that for the for the Marshawan play. I can't remember

182
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 3: that being the case for him, but maybe he was.

183
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 3: But who doesn't matter here what the cow was not?

184
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 3: I think he was right. He was in eighteen, Yeah,

185
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,599
Speaker 3: that's when he started with the with the Seahawks. He

186
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 3: I mean, he was there in eighteen and twenty. Now

187
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 3: I don't know.

188
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,839
Speaker 7: He was with the Indianapolis Colts in sixteen and seventeen.

189
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 3: So I had to look at his stuff here. He

190
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 3: was with Georgia in fifteen fifteen, Yeah, and I don't

191
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 3: know about twelve, thirteen, fourteen. Maybe it's just out of football,

192
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 3: but oh no, he was with the Rams. No, he

193
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 3: wasn't He wasn't the coordinator for the Marshawn should have

194
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 3: handed the ball to Marshawn that that wasn't him. But

195
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 3: here with the Cowboys, I can't say I love the

196
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 3: play calling in the down in the red zone Eagles

197
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 3: game a couple of weeks ago. Didn't cost him in

198
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 3: the game, did not cost him the game obviously, But

199
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 3: you know, it's first and goal in the eight, which

200
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 3: is always tough. Anything first and goal from like eight, nine, ten,

201
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 3: even first and ten at the eleven. It's really tight

202
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 3: down there. It's hard to score. But on first down

203
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 3: you get six yards with Javonte Williams down to the two. Okay,

204
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 3: that changes things a little bit. Number one, I think

205
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 3: I could run it right down your throat Number two.

206
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 3: It's a four. It's four downs now because now I'm

207
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 3: at the two. On second down, I can get in

208
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 3: and then they threw it three times in a row.

209
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,719
Speaker 3: Make that makes sense. There's been there's been a lot

210
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 3: of that this year where I just feel like Javante

211
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 3: is a good runner where he doesn't get stopped behind

212
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage that often. He runs hard runs forward,

213
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 3: so getting hit at the one yard line is expected.

214
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 3: But he can lean himself into the end zone. I

215
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 3: don't think they run the ball with him enough down there,

216
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 3: and and there's been times where I think they get

217
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 3: a little too cute. So I agree with that. But

218
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 3: let's don't put a let's don't put a historic play

219
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 3: on him when that wasn't. But when you're talking about

220
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 3: right now, yeah, I think the red zone play calling

221
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 3: has been you know, it's been it's been questionable at

222
00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 3: times this year. But also you know, red zone penalties

223
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 3: fall start things like that have hurt this team some.

224
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to Lester in Minnesota morning next.

225
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 8: Just I got a couple of points, but I want

226
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 8: to make I want to comment on what we've been

227
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,839
Speaker 8: talking about this morning. First of all, yeah, of course,

228
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 8: run that ball more. And let's not be too hard

229
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 8: on shot. This is his first rodeo being a head coach.

230
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 8: I know he's been around for a long, long long

231
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 8: time as an assistant, so let's he needs to learn

232
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 8: some things. I mean, we all learn things every day,

233
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 8: so this is the first time being a head coach,

234
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 8: so give him a break. But the comments I wanted

235
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 8: to make was, you know, I'm up here in Minnesota, man,

236
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 8: and they freaking out about Jefferson not getting the ball down.

237
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: I mean they are really.

238
00:12:50,520 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 8: Freaking out, man, the fans, the media up here, everybody man.

239
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 3: That quarterback, you know, I mean, I mean JJ McCarthy

240
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 3: had his best game of his career last week because

241
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 3: it was the first game he hasn't thrown a pick,

242
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 3: so he's been throwing the ball to the other team

243
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 3: a lot.

244
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 8: And uh with Cowboys, Man, we took a tough loss

245
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 8: of Detroit. I really thought we should win that game.

246
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,959
Speaker 8: But hey, we went what three and one those four games.

247
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 8: That's really good.

248
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: No one really.

249
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 8: Expected that when we looked at the schedule on the set,

250
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 8: I think we just need to win out handle our

251
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 8: business and I think we got a decent chance of

252
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 8: making it, and you know, we need some help of course.

253
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 8: And then when one question I have, what's the status

254
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 8: on Guidon?

255
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, thanks for the call, Lester. The Guidon from

256
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 3: what from what I'm hearing is we'll we'll find out

257
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 3: today if he's if he does anything. I think what

258
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 3: it sort of has looked like over the last few

259
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 3: you know, weeks, months or whatever. And every player is different.

260
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 3: But if they don't practice on Wednesday, they usually don't

261
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 3: play in the game. If you can get them to

262
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 3: limits it on Wednesday and then maybe a full participant

263
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 3: on Thursday or Friday, then that that that you know,

264
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 3: more pushing forward and you know, kind of an upward trajectory.

265
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 3: But if they don't practice today, then you know, we'll

266
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 3: be surprised if he if he plays, but let's see,

267
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 3: let's just see. Right as this show is airing, it's

268
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 3: it's early, it's still in the morning. On Wednesday, they

269
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 3: practice about you know, twelve one o'clock or so, so

270
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 3: we'll see how it goes. And the injury report comes

271
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 3: out around three. So like to see, like, you know,

272
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 3: like to see him out there again. I think it's

273
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 3: a close race right now with with him and Nate Thomas.

274
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 3: They both young players that that that need to play,

275
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 3: and I think they're both probably more soon on the

276
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 3: left side. Terrence Steele is okay. On the right side,

277
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 3: I think you know, they can get better there too.

278
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 3: But you know that that I think he's been a

279
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 3: I think he's just you know, the definition of solid.

280
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 3: I think he's a solid player and he's I don't

281
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 3: think he's going to be a Pro Bowl player, at

282
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 3: least not this year. But he's solid. He makes pretty

283
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 3: good money. I mean, so you'd want a little bit

284
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 3: more than that. But I think he grades out well.

285
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 3: I mean, he has his time, I mean he has

286
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 3: he has issues with those speed rushers sometimes, just like

287
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 3: all of them do. But and neither one of them

288
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 3: played well in that game last week. They really, you know,

289
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 3: they they really needed CD to stay healthy in that game,

290
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 3: because when you look at what was happening there, one

291
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 3: of two things was going to happen. CD was going

292
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 3: to have two hundred and fifty yards receiving or they

293
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 3: were going to shift things back over to him. And

294
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 3: then now George Picketts was going to have a huge game,

295
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 3: but they were going to go off and Flinoy came

296
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 3: in and he did his thing too. I obviously rather

297
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 3: have CD, but but you know, that just goes to

298
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 3: show you what kind of success they could have had.

299
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 3: And and you know, let's let's not go too crazy

300
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 3: on that. Well, what's wrong with Pickens. That's that's kind

301
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 3: of the way the Lions were trying to cover things.

302
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 3: And guess what happened. Guy went for one hundred and

303
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 3: twelve in the first half. Cede Lamb before he got hurt.

304
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 3: Flinoy comes in, he has one hundred and fifteen or

305
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 3: one hundred and ten or whatever yards in the second half.

306
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 3: So you're gonna keep doing that, fine, Flinoy and Cede

307
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 3: Lamb will will continue to eat or whoever it is

308
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 3: on that other side, and teams won't continue to do that.

309
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 3: So I think you can still have a guy that's

310
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 3: a weapon without him putting up the big yards. And

311
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 3: I understand that doesn't help your fantasy football team, but

312
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 3: there's nothing really wrong with the situation when a guy

313
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 3: has numbers like that, especially when the guys on the

314
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 3: flip side are doing what they do.

315
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 9: Let's go, Hey, what's up, Nick?

316
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 3: Hey, how are you doing?

317
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 9: Doing good? How about you? Good good? I just kind

318
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 9: of wanted to talk about the upcoming game, a little

319
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 9: bit about our running game.

320
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 2: I like.

321
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 9: A couple of callers back he was talking a little

322
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 9: bit about how shot he was calling plays in the

323
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 9: red zone, especially getting away from the run. I'm kind

324
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 9: of this team has been frustrating for me, Nick, because

325
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 9: I mean, like with all of us we had we

326
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 9: were drinking the kool aid a couple of weeks ago

327
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 9: and then this Detroit game happened, and we went back

328
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,439
Speaker 9: to all these things that we should have learned about,

329
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 9: you know, when we played Carolina and when we played

330
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 9: the Bears and even Arizona, and I just I can't,

331
00:17:55,720 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 9: I can't get past that. You know, half of us

332
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 9: fans that you know, watch a little bit of film.

333
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 9: I mean, we're not professionals, but you know we can

334
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 9: tell certain things that it seems like is getting lost

335
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,959
Speaker 9: on this coaching staff, especially on the defensive.

336
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 2: Side, you know.

337
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 9: And I just don't know how to believe anymore.

338
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 3: What specific things are you talking about? You're kind of

339
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 3: you kind of va honestly.

340
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 9: Yeah, honestly. Kenneth murray Man, Yeah, he's just not good

341
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 9: at football, dude. And I'm sure he's a great guy.

342
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,120
Speaker 9: And I don't want to pile on especially after all

343
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 9: we've been through this year, you know what I mean.

344
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,679
Speaker 9: But it's just like every every person that watches this

345
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 9: team with any kind of passion or care knows that

346
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 9: that this guy, I think Dylan said earlier in the week,

347
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 9: it's almost having a minus one player having him on

348
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 9: the field because he's so unaware and he just plays

349
00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 9: with no violence and no no passion, and it's just

350
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 9: I can't keep watching it. I will, but it's just

351
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 9: hard to watch every week where we keep doing the

352
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 9: same dumb stuff over and over and and and learn

353
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 9: from it. Right. So anyway, that's what I.

354
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 3: Got, all right, I appreciate it.

355
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 2: I mean, thanks for all you do.

356
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks for the call. I can't argue with you,

357
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 3: I really I'm not. I wouldn't want to there because, uh,

358
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 3: you know, the linebacker situation has been a problem all

359
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 3: season long, and it started out with Kenneth Murray and

360
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,360
Speaker 3: Jack Sanborn played in there in the middle. Then by

361
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 3: week three or four, Shamar James comes in. Shamar James

362
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 3: starts playing. He gets a lot of tackles. He's still

363
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 3: not he's not great because he's a rookie still learning.

364
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 3: But he flies to the ball and sometimes he flies

365
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 3: out of position, but he's he's he's moving around, you know,

366
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 3: and in the trade for for Logan Wilson and then

367
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 3: they get over shown back and so you've you've made

368
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 3: changes there, changes to the point where you would think

369
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,479
Speaker 3: maybe that would cut into Kenneth Murray's time, but it

370
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 3: really hasn't. And we haven't seen a ton of plays there,

371
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 3: maybe a couple tipped passes that led to an interception,

372
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 3: or maybe a tackle for loss here and there. I'm

373
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 3: trying to looking at his stats. You know. There he

374
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 3: continues to lead the team in tackles. Doesn't always mean

375
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 3: a lot because dround bland a second and that's not

376
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 3: a good thing for your corner. That means they're they're

377
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 3: going after him and he's making the too many tackles.

378
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 3: But you know, you, Kenneth Murray, he's got one sack

379
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 3: and maybe three or four tackles for loss. Not not

380
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 3: as dynamic and you know, as far as the playmaker goes.

381
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 3: So all right, let's let's go to Mark. He's in Davis, California. Mark.

382
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 10: Hey, good morning. That's gone on.

383
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 3: Hey, how are you doing well.

384
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 10: I'm hanging in but thanks man, thanks for asking. Hey, no, listen,

385
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 10: it's a couple of points. I'm just noticing that we

386
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 10: get to improve on definitely. Man, we got to work

387
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 10: on the turnover. The turnover margin man, the world. I

388
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 10: think we're minus eight yeah just here or something. So yeah,

389
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 10: we've got to take care of the ball, man, for sure,

390
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 10: We'll get down the red zone. Man, We've got to

391
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 10: come up with touchdowns, we gotta get six those still

392
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 10: those aren't cutting it for sure. And then also special teams, Man,

393
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 10: that was that was not good last week. So we

394
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 10: got to really improve on social teams. So but I'm

395
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 10: sure this was other factors in as well. But that's it, man.

396
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 10: I think you hopefully work on those things, but hopefully,

397
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 10: you know, we've got a better chance of doing better overall.

398
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 10: And my score for the game, uh, I think we

399
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 10: pull it out close. Tough, excuse me, but I think we.

400
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 11: Pull it out thirty.

401
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:09,120
Speaker 10: One twenty seven. And yeah, hopefully they could get these

402
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 10: four run that went out and then hopefully the best man,

403
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 10: hope for the best, and hopefully we sneak you in there.

404
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 10: And uh, that's said. But thanks, I'm sticking a car,

405
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 10: have a great one and go Cowboys.

406
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 3: All right, thank you. I'll touch on one of those points.

407
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 3: There are special teams. Yeah, Shaddy had said that he

408
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 3: expects of changes there personnel wise. You know, not sure

409
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 3: what all you can do there as far as who's

410
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 3: on your roster. I mean, most of the guys there

411
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 3: that are that are going to play for you on

412
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 3: special teams have probably already been playing. I mean you

413
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 3: could tweak some things here and there. I think it's

414
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 3: a bigger picture though, honestly than just the personnel. I

415
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 3: think I think we're seeing that with with Turpin not

416
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 3: not really having a lot of you know, a lot

417
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 3: of places to do things. And and you know, you

418
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 3: go back to Nick Sorens in one of his earlier

419
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 3: press conferences when he first got the job. You know,

420
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 3: he he kind of said something that was I think

421
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 3: he was you know, he was trying to to give

422
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 3: praise to the guys he's inheriting as a coaches. I mean,

423
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 3: think about it. I mean, got Aubrey Anger, Trent Sigg,

424
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 3: I mean, he's he's a veteran snapper, he doesn't had

425
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 3: any bad snaps. He's he's fine. Turpin's a two time

426
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 3: pro bowler.

427
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 12: C J.

428
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 3: Goodwins is a really good place. So he kind of

429
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 3: made the thing there's not a lot, you know, I

430
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 3: don't have to do a whole lot here. I just

431
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 3: got to let them do what they do.

432
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 5: Yeah.

433
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 3: But but I think we're kind of seeing too from

434
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 3: a coaching standpoint, especially with a Turpend in the returns.

435
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 3: You know these things, He's not just gonna run out

436
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 3: there and score. You know, it's got to get blocked.

437
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 3: It's got to get and I'm not saying that he

438
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 3: doesn't do that. He was trying to just kind of

439
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 3: throw that out there and say give props to his

440
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 3: guys and that he's got some talented players. But as

441
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 3: you can see, it needs a little more than that.

442
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 3: And so far this year, whatever it's it hasn't worked

443
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 3: to that point where we've seen some some really you know,

444
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 3: great plays from the return game. We've seen some block kicks,

445
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 3: We've seen some things here and there, some touchdowns, some

446
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 3: some some nice plays on defense, I mean and special teams,

447
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 3: but from returns game, haven't really seen that this year.

448
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to break cowboy storyline. I'll be

487
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 15: twenty five. A couple of couple of questions. One is

488
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 15: what's the status on like you know, Digs and Clowney

489
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 15: and CD. And second thing, I just yeah, agree with

490
00:26:55,800 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 15: dery Bobs. We needed you come up with different either

491
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 15: wanting the ball down at the goal line or the

492
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:07,400
Speaker 15: short quick screens or whatever something like that. But otherwise,

493
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 15: have a good day, calculator.

494
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:18,400
Speaker 3: All I appreciate it. Digs and uh Clowney CD guid

495
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 3: and I mentioned him earlier, those guys, you know, we'll

496
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,959
Speaker 3: see we'll see what happens today on in Wednesday's practice,

497
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 3: I mentioned that before uh CD I think has a

498
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 3: shot to play. That's something that Schottenheimer had said earlier,

499
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,880
Speaker 3: that that the having these extra days with the concussion.

500
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 3: That's the first thing I thought of was when when

501
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 3: he when he was on the ground, I was like, this,

502
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 3: this looks like a concussion and you got ten days

503
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 3: to the next game. Because I think gone are the days.

504
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 3: And I could be wrong here, but gone are the

505
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 3: days where it's seven day, seven days for concussion. I mean,

506
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 3: that really hasn't been the case. And it's actually been

507
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 3: two games, if not more in certain cases. So I

508
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 3: think it was a very I think CD was was

509
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 3: was disappointed that he was getting pulled out of that game.

510
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 3: I think he thought he could go. They just don't

511
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 3: risk it anymore. I mean, if you're if you're a

512
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 3: little woozy, you're done. That's just the way it's it's been.

513
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 3: And I you know, I can't say I disagree with

514
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 3: that at all. I mean, but but that's just the

515
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 3: way that it is. Now with ten days, maybe he's

516
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,439
Speaker 3: got he's got a better shot here to to come

517
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 3: back and play in this game. As for the other guys,

518
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 3: let's just kind of see how the injury report goes out.

519
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 3: They're they're all a little fifty to fifty, but we'll

520
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 3: see if they can get out there and practice. And

521
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 3: then I'll make this point about your running game. And

522
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 3: we talked about in the in the red zone there.

523
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 3: You know, when you draft Tyler Smith in twenty fourth

524
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 3: I think he was he was a guard that you know,

525
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 3: tackle that could play guard maybe tackle, but they didn't

526
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 3: know exactly where to be, but they knew he had

527
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 3: the strength to play inside. You draft bb in the

528
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 3: third round, and then you draft Booker twelfth overall. So

529
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 3: you should be a team that could run the football

530
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 3: right up the middle in the red zone, late in

531
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 3: the game, run out the clock. You should be that

532
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 3: kind of team and eventually that that's that's got to

533
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 3: be the goal is to play that that style of

534
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 3: football with those guys. If not, then you don't. You

535
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 3: don't draft Booker twelfth overall. If he can't be a guy.

536
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 3: That's why you get a guard in the first round.

537
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 3: Says he needs to be somebody that could just move

538
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 3: people off the Ballate Nate Kneton used to say it

539
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 3: all the time. There would be games where he would

540
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 3: be lining up right in front of his his guy

541
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 3: and he'd be like, hey, it's coming right here. I'm

542
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 3: going to hit you. Moose is coming behind me, and

543
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 3: then Emmett stop it, and they couldn't. That's what this

544
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 3: team has to get back to. It's got to get

545
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 3: to that point where you get down in the red zone,

546
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 3: stop us because we're going to run the ball. We're

547
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 3: going to move you off the ball. And that's what

548
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 3: I think has got to get you know, and you

549
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 3: can't do it every single play, but you do it

550
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 3: enough the play accident. That's where you're tied in just

551
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 3: sitting there basically calling a fair catch a real fair catch,

552
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 3: not one where you fake the fair catch, since faking

553
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 3: the fair catch is a thing now. Dylan, Northport, Florida,

554
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 3: what's up, man, Dylan?

555
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 2: Hey, how you doing, dude?

556
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 3: How you doing? Man? We're doing this?

557
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 8: Yeah?

558
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 5: Sorry, I just I just cut in.

559
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 16: I couldn't hear anything on the phone. I'm here, I'm here,

560
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 16: all right.

561
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 8: That's sorry.

562
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 3: That's on being being said. It's on me being with

563
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 3: the with the my bad.

564
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 16: We will forgive you, Chris, definitely.

565
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 3: Don't you hate. And this is not not a beam

566
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 3: thing saying. In football, when a guy drops a pass

567
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 3: or like Tyler Goyiton did it where he like a

568
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 3: false start at the one and he's like, my bad, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

569
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 3: we see it.

570
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 16: Man, guy like, hey, Guidon might have got tricked though

571
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 16: it might have been an Eagles defender and on his defense, right,

572
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 16: you ever get that one figured out?

573
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 9: Was that dact that that did that?

574
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 16: You know, the the meet him jump or was that

575
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 16: an Eagle defender yelling something out oh.

576
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 3: Defense? Yeah, well yeah screamed and he jumped, so.

577
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 16: The ref needed to say my bad then on that one.

578
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know how they ever call that, honestly,

579
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 3: Like the ref isn't there the ref I mean, he's

580
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,959
Speaker 3: not lined up right there. I don't know how they

581
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 3: ever called that where they the guys are barking signals

582
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 3: and all that. It's it's that's crazy. It's crazy to

583
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 3: me why the defense couldn't be able to do that.

584
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 3: Get the offense. The quarterback could change his Caten's up

585
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 3: and all that. Oh well, anyways, what you get.

586
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 16: I saw some people talking about how if shot and him,

587
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 16: if the Cowboys don't make the playoffs, then Schottenheimer's first

588
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 16: season will have been a failure. And I couldn't disagree

589
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 16: more with that. I think that's ridiculous.

590
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 11: You know, it's the first.

591
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 16: It does sound like something an Eagles people would say,

592
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 16: but it's Cowboys fans saying it, and it's silly. It's

593
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 16: silly because you can't he's a first year head coach.

594
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 16: I think I look back and in the history of

595
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 16: the NFL, two first year head coaches went to the

596
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 16: super Bowl.

597
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 9: That was it.

598
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 16: In all the years the NFL has existed, that was it.

599
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 16: So it just doesn't happen.

600
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 11: So measure success.

601
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 16: People don't like to get into the nitty gritty and

602
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 16: look past the low hanging fruit, right, and we see

603
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 16: with the Jerry blame all the time. I think that's ridiculous.

604
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 16: Most of the time up that he's blameless, but I

605
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 16: think that's lazy and ridiculous. And I think this is

606
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 16: lazy and ridiculous because he's laying a foundation and you're

607
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 16: seeing things that you didn't see with the last administration.

608
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 16: You're seeing hold players accountable, they're restarting practices. How many

609
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 16: times last season did you see players and the coach

610
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 16: come out after a game say, yeah, we had a

611
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 16: bad week of practice. That doesn't happen apparent and Leander Schoenheimer.

612
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 16: So far, he's not letting it happen, so that's good.

613
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 16: He's holding guys accountable with Steede and Pickens, you know,

614
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 16: holding them out of the first series, like he's he's

615
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 16: building a culture here and starting something fresh. And anybody

616
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 16: that like really realistically looked at this team and the

617
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 16: roster and the holes they had, they knew this probably

618
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 16: unless something crazy happened, this wasn't going to be a

619
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 16: super Bowl year. That would have been insane unless they

620
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 16: got lucky, kind of like the CA Spanders the last

621
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 16: year on their big playoff run. So I think this

622
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 16: is a big step in the right direction season. I

623
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 16: think it's a culture foundational season, and I really think

624
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 16: with a good free agency and offseason next year, none

625
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 16: of this season's over by any stretch. There's still some

626
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 16: way to go, but I think they're well on their

627
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 16: way to being a real contender potentially next season. Undershotenheimer

628
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 16: depends what they do at DC though, And I guess

629
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 16: I can call later on and talk about that guy,

630
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 16: but that's a conversation I guess for another time.

631
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, hey, Dylan, I appreciate the call and

632
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 3: I think you you're onto something there. I don't know

633
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 3: who all says that, and you know that's just frustrated

634
00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 3: and talk. But you got to remember this. As soon

635
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 3: as that trade was completed, that trade, not any of

636
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 3: the other six or seven. I'm talking about that one.

637
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 3: As soon as that was completed, I think all bets

638
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 3: were off of what we could really evaluate Schottenheimer this

639
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 3: year because think about how the trade was set up.

640
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 3: It wasn't just for Kenny Clark. I mean, that wasn't

641
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 3: the deal. The deal was for two first round picks

642
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 3: won this year. I mean one in twenty six, one

643
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,959
Speaker 3: in twenty seven. That's the deal. So you traded away

644
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 3: a top five player in the NFL, one of the

645
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,280
Speaker 3: best at his position, and he's having it. He's playing

646
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 3: great in Green Bay, and you miss him here because

647
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 3: you haven't replaced him so and it's been a problem.

648
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 3: So you traded that guy basically for two first round picks.

649
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 3: I know Kenny Clark was here, but he hasn't been

650
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 3: a difference maker and come with the terms of this defense.

651
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 3: So he's a piece of it, but not a big

652
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 3: huge part. And they haven't changed things around. But so

653
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 3: you can't evaluate really. I mean, that's that's what it was.

654
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 3: This was a future move and so he's the head coach.

655
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:09,800
Speaker 3: He's not going anywhere. But I mean, you know, you

656
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 3: took away his best player and and for for two

657
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 3: guys that aren't even here yet. Now they did flip

658
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:16,840
Speaker 3: one and they got Quinnon Williams and we've seen a

659
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 3: change and you're still going to get another one. But

660
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 3: yet we haven't seen what the trade hasn't come out yet,

661
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,879
Speaker 3: so I don't know how you can really fully evaluate

662
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,879
Speaker 3: what he's done. That's just my opinion. I think there's

663
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 3: been some good things. There's been some culture changes. You

664
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,479
Speaker 3: don't change culture overnight, you don't. You have to change

665
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,919
Speaker 3: it over the course of the season. I think he's

666
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,359
Speaker 3: in the process of doing that. I think this team

667
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 3: has plays hard for him. They they've they've done a

668
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 3: good job. Now he he's learned some things. I think

669
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 3: what Lester said way back in earlier on the show

670
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 3: about you know, he's first year head coach and you've

671
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 3: got to give him a little bit of time to

672
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 3: do that and learn some things. He's been around a lot,

673
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 3: but not necessarily doing it all. He's been he's been

674
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 3: an off if it's a coordinator before, but he hasn't

675
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,320
Speaker 3: been the guy to decide things on defense and you know,

676
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 3: when when when to do this and that and take

677
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 3: this guy out of the game and all all these

678
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 3: kind of things. So he's learning, and I think the

679
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 3: Cowboys are definitely patient with him. And you know, as

680
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:18,800
Speaker 3: a guy that was not the best student in school,

681
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,360
Speaker 3: I believe. I mean, if you fail, you fail. But

682
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 3: there's d's and their c's and b's and a's, uh

683
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:27,840
Speaker 3: and uh, you know, I don't think he's going to

684
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,359
Speaker 3: be It's not going to be a failure for him.

685
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 3: You don't make it to the playoff, he I mean,

686
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 3: they didn't. They'll fail at their goals like twenty other

687
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 3: teams will, but I don't think it will be a

688
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,320
Speaker 3: failure for your first year head coach to that you know,

689
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 3: that's been trying to build this thing. All right, let's

690
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 3: go to break one more time on a Cowboys story

691
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 3: and I'd be right back after this.

00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 11: You can't disagree more with you and my boy Dylan.

717
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 11: Why if this team doesn't make the playoffs, it's a failure.

718
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,759
Speaker 3: Okay, all right? That and that and that's that's the

719
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:37,879
Speaker 3: way people think. That's fine, that's fine.

720
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 17: That day.

721
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,320
Speaker 11: That is professional football.

722
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:41,839
Speaker 8: This team.

723
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 3: What what is a failure though? What see you're answering

724
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 3: different things. What is a failure? The season?

725
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 11: Not not not making the playoffsky?

726
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 3: Fine?

727
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 11: This steps steps in the season. The first step is

728
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 11: that's fine. You have to have enough wins to get

729
00:38:58,239 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 11: into the tournament.

730
00:38:59,239 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 3: That how it works.

731
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 11: That's how it works. And if you don't make it,

732
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 11: it's a failure, especially when you got the highest paid quarterback,

733
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,920
Speaker 11: you got the third highest paid wide receiver, the highest

734
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 11: paid guard. You brought in George Pickens, and.

735
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 3: I get it. So that Okay, they don't make the playoffs,

736
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,840
Speaker 3: who's your coach next year? Then who's your head goat Well.

737
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 11: That's that's that's meaningless because he's got a contract. Somebody

738
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:28,319
Speaker 11: fires coaches after one year.

739
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 3: They could.

740
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:36,280
Speaker 11: No, they could, but listen it doesn't mean that Shoddy

741
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 11: can't be better the following year. But it's a failure. Okay,

742
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 11: it's a failure. This team will make the playoffs. And

743
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:49,479
Speaker 11: if you interviewed the players if it happens, they would

744
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 11: say that. I hope they would say that.

745
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think we're just you're arguing two different things.

746
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,800
Speaker 3: You're arguing two different things.

747
00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 11: It's another thing. Another thing Dylan said was he said,

748
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 11: as fans, we didn't expect the Cowboys to be a

749
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:05,439
Speaker 11: playoff team.

750
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:06,359
Speaker 14: I did.

751
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 11: You brought in George Pickens, so now you had two

752
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 11: number one wide receivers. You improved your offensive line supposedly

753
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:23,400
Speaker 11: by drafting Booker, you got a running back. Now. I

754
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 11: didn't expect them to trade the best defensive player in

755
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 11: the league, which blew up the season, honestly, because if

756
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 11: you would have kept Micah and kept the team exactly

757
00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 11: the same, you don't have Kenny Clark because that never happens.

758
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 11: But then you go trade for Quinn Williams, which you

759
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 11: still could have did. Could you imagine Quinn Williams and

760
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 11: Micah on this team right now, this team, this defense

761
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 11: would be unstoppable. So I have to blame Jerry because

762
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,360
Speaker 11: it was Jerry that made the move. It's Jerry's the

763
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 11: one constant in the last thirty years, We've had one

764
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 11: hundred coaches, quarterbacks, this, that, and the other thing. So yes,

765
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 11: he gets all the blame because he's the GM too.

766
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 11: So I just I just disagree.

767
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 2: I I this team.

768
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 11: What's weird is we expect them now to go on

769
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 11: a run. We're expecting them to win four in a

770
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 11: row and get to the get to the playoffs. That's

771
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 11: but yet before the season, we didn't expect that and

772
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 11: we had Micah. So I'm just a little confused with that.

773
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 11: This team was good enough. This team should be, should

774
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 11: have made should make the playoffs, should have made the playoffs.

775
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,760
Speaker 11: And I'm sorry if this team falls short, it's a failure.

776
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 3: It just is. Yeah, Okay, thanks thanks for the call. Rob.

777
00:41:56,120 --> 00:42:00,239
Speaker 3: I don't think anyone's disagreeing with that. I feel like

778
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 3: you're changing the uh. I think you're you're you're kind

779
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 3: of moving the goalpost a little bit here because uh

780
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 3: you what Dylan. I think what Dylan was saying was

781
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,880
Speaker 3: was that that Shody was considered it was a failure

782
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 3: on him. I get what your goal is. Your goal

783
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 3: is to make the playoffs, and if you don't make it,

784
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 3: you fell short of that. It was a failure for

785
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 3: for for making that goal, but it's not a failure

786
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 3: for building something. And when you take your best player

787
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 3: and you move it to next year, then obviously that

788
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 3: is where some of the focus is, not all of it.

789
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 3: You still want to win the games, but some of

790
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 3: your focuses and some of your priorities were pushed to

791
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,320
Speaker 3: next year or you wouldn't have made the trade.

792
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 17: So I get it.

793
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 3: And who made the trade? Jerry made the trade. And

794
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,239
Speaker 3: then that's how you started talking about Jerry. Fine, this

795
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 3: was about Shody. That was the original part was about Shody.

796
00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,439
Speaker 3: Can this guy be your head coach?

797
00:42:59,680 --> 00:42:59,840
Speaker 17: Is he?

798
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,399
Speaker 3: That was the decision that was made that no one liked,

799
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 3: including myself. No one liked that move now looking at

800
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 3: it now, just from that standpoint, Is he the guy

801
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 3: that you think can turn this around and get them

802
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 3: where they want to go with a full roster, with

803
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,399
Speaker 3: with you know, with great players at at all positions. Yeah,

804
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 3: I think I think he can. That's what the evaluation was.

805
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 3: And I don't you know this thing got changed to

806
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 3: you know, how you believe in seasons, Is it a

807
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,759
Speaker 3: failure and all that stuff, And maybe I'm the wrong

808
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 3: guy for that because when I started my first four

809
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,680
Speaker 3: years working here, I saw eight and eight playoffs, but

810
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,800
Speaker 3: then I saw three, five and elevens. So maybe I

811
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 3: have a different opinion about what a failure is and

812
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 3: all that. I mean, yeah, you want to make the playoffs,

813
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:47,959
Speaker 3: you want to win the super Bowl, all that, because

814
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 3: I guarantee you there are people out there that say,

815
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 3: if you don't win the super Bowl, that's a failure.

816
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:54,960
Speaker 3: Let's go to Bruce in Houston.

817
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 14: Nick, so well, Rob can get under your skin and

818
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:00,879
Speaker 14: a hurry brother.

819
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,319
Speaker 3: Good, No, I love it. That's that's good. That's good.

820
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 3: As I told Rob, is the guy shooting baskets in

821
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,320
Speaker 3: the pool when the little fluting goal, the goals moving,

822
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,359
Speaker 3: that's not what we were talking about. It was over here.

823
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 3: Now you moved over here. And I love Rob and

824
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 3: robbed that I.

825
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 17: Know.

826
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,480
Speaker 14: And he's from Vegas to right, So that that's my guy,

827
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 14: all right, And you know you stole my thunder because

828
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,239
Speaker 14: that's what I was gonna say. Well, Rob, according to

829
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 14: your analogy there, then the whoever lost the super Bowl

830
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,359
Speaker 14: that year was an utter failure you know, next season.

831
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 11: And that is true some people.

832
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 3: Some people say that the question is can Scotty is

833
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 3: Shoty the right guy? Is he on the right path

834
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,279
Speaker 3: for a guy that no one liked this move? Here

835
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:51,880
Speaker 3: we are almost a full season in. Is he the

836
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 3: guy that that that can, that can turn this around fully?

837
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,839
Speaker 3: And I think I think so. I think he's it's

838
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 3: been a good hire. That's really what the pust is.

839
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:00,919
Speaker 3: He's just been a good hire.

840
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 14: I think so too, And I agree a couple of callers, well, Dylan,

841
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:09,399
Speaker 14: he mentioned that he's creating a culture, and that's that's

842
00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:11,960
Speaker 14: that's what you need. Those guys. We got to remember

843
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:15,319
Speaker 14: these guys are twenty two and twenty three year they're

844
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 14: just kids. I mean, of course they can say that

845
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,279
Speaker 14: when I'm in my sixties, but they're still kids. Even

846
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 14: though they're grown giant men, they're still young young men

847
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,800
Speaker 14: that still need to be developed. And I hate to

848
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 14: say it, he's partially right there because Jerry did hire

849
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:33,600
Speaker 14: eber Flus before or well, I mean, you know, it

850
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 14: seemed like he didn't get the higher's defensive coordinator and

851
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,319
Speaker 14: that's kind of why I called do you think if?

852
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 14: And I don't want him to be fired because you

853
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 14: hate to start over on another defensive coordinator. But is

854
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:47,880
Speaker 14: there a defensive coordinator were I was listening to the

855
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,760
Speaker 14: Talking Cowboys before and they were talking about Brian Flores,

856
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 14: what a innovator he is and how he uses it

857
00:45:55,520 --> 00:46:01,200
Speaker 14: almost like a almost like a almost like a Bimmerman?

858
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 5: Did is is he?

859
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 14: Would he be that type of coach to to coach

860
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,320
Speaker 14: the It depends on the players we have, you know,

861
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,800
Speaker 14: are they zone players? Are they press covers?

862
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 5: You know?

863
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 14: Pick pick a lane, so to speak. But talk a

864
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 14: little bit about I hope he doesn't get fired. I

865
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:21,399
Speaker 14: think they need some continuity. What would Jerry let uh shot?

866
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 14: He pick his own defensive corner? I should go. But

867
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 14: I think this team is in the right direction. I

868
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:30,040
Speaker 14: I love the trade. It's going to be curious to

869
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 14: see what their two number one picks are going to be.

870
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:36,920
Speaker 14: And I like our cornerbacks. Caylin Carson was playing pretty good,

871
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:39,400
Speaker 14: and I like to see what Rebel is gonna do.

872
00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 14: This is like pre season for him, you know what

873
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:41,839
Speaker 14: I mean?

874
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,719
Speaker 3: Anyway, all right, thanks for the call. I'm sorry to

875
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,440
Speaker 3: cut you off. We got one more caller, I'll say

876
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 3: this about the defensive coordinator part. You know, they have

877
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:51,959
Speaker 3: a coordinator here, so I'm not going to get into

878
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:53,759
Speaker 3: what they're going to do unless unless there is a

879
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 3: change made. I'll say this though, that if shot shot

880
00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 3: he calls plays on offense, he has got to be

881
00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 3: in tune with the defensive coordinator one thousand percent. He's

882
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 3: got to believe what that guy believes. And if they

883
00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:07,440
Speaker 3: have differences of opinion, and I'm not saying they do

884
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 3: or don't, I'm just saying, if there, that has to

885
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 3: be number one. Uh, he's got to know, Hey, I'm

886
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 3: dealing with the offensive guys here and on what this

887
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 3: last series was like. But I hope the hell that

888
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 3: he's blitzing here two times on the on this series,

889
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 3: or or we're playing a prevent or whatever it is.

890
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 3: He's got to know that his defensive coordinator has this

891
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:31,279
Speaker 3: back there and and if that's the case with Flu's fine,

892
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:34,239
Speaker 3: they'll get better here in the year two. If that's

893
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,759
Speaker 3: not the case, then that's really what Shoddy needs. Let's

894
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,560
Speaker 3: go Eric in Arkansas. One more one more caller, Eric.

895
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 2: Hey, how's it going good?

896
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 3: How are you doing?

897
00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 2: I'm pretty good first time caller, so I just wanted

898
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 2: to get on and I just got here.

899
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 3: We go all right, let's go.

900
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I'm not a big hope on a state.

901
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,240
Speaker 2: So I got two things.

902
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,920
Speaker 3: One thanks for the win. That was the last one.

903
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 3: With that, sorry, go ahead.

904
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 2: I got two things. Won the Parson deal. I don't

905
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 2: think we were going to actually, you know, we couldn't

906
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,000
Speaker 2: afford them. And now, if we were to pay Parson

907
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:13,359
Speaker 2: forty seven million, everybody said we would have overpaid him,

908
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. But for green Bay, I

909
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 2: guess that's a good thing. Two Parson, when he was

910
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:21,680
Speaker 2: on the team for four years, our defense still won

911
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 2: a ranked in the top ten or five or ten.

912
00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 2: We were still giving up the run, still giving up

913
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:28,719
Speaker 2: almost three hundred yards against Green Bay in the playoff game,

914
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 2: he had one tackle. So you know, I can't I

915
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 2: can't say Parson really losing parts really hurt the defense.

916
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,719
Speaker 2: For that fact, I've seen with Parson on the team,

917
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 2: I defense still won rank. Now do you can put

918
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 2: Williams with that, It's a different story, you know what

919
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 2: I mean. That's a totally difference. But when we go

920
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 2: after Williams, if we still kept Parson, as we paid

921
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 2: forty seven million. You're right exactly exactly. You see what

922
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 2: I'm saying. So we were still being in the same situation.

923
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 2: Can't stop the run. Now our defensive scheme now we

924
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:03,919
Speaker 2: got press corners. Yeah, and we're playing him his own Yeah.

925
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 3: I don't think they would have made that trade because

926
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 3: you would have had to trade next year as one

927
00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:11,360
Speaker 3: and or or the one in twenty twenty seven and

928
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:12,120
Speaker 3: a second.

929
00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 2: And I don't think yeah exactly, you know, so are

930
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 2: sports would you have needed that?

931
00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 3: I mean seriously, though, if you've got Osa that you

932
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 3: paid and and and you have Michael on the outside,

933
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,759
Speaker 3: But I think what your point you're saying is and

934
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 3: we kind of have to go. Are you saying that, like,

935
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:30,840
Speaker 3: even if you would have kept Micah, you still have

936
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 3: problems on defense.

937
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 2: Absolutely, okay, yeah, fair linebackers and everything else. Yeah, we've

938
00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:37,560
Speaker 2: had major problems.

939
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, and maybe other other issues too.

940
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:42,080
Speaker 2: And yeah, you know what I mean.

941
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:45,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, he wasn't. He wasn't the most well liked person

942
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 3: in the world. Now is that is that? Does that

943
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 3: mean trade him? No, that's not the reason you trade him.

944
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:53,600
Speaker 3: But you know he wasn't You know that there were

945
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:55,919
Speaker 3: issues there, There were there were issues, and there's gonna

946
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:57,800
Speaker 3: be issues with Green Bay too. That's just who he is.

947
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:00,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, well go ahead, I will say this,

948
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 2: Emmy cuts you off. But here's the thing too, when

949
00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:04,359
Speaker 2: he laid on the table, I knew it was over.

950
00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 3: It was over. I one hundred percent agree, And I

951
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:11,960
Speaker 3: wrote that in my column that on the table, when

952
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:14,120
Speaker 3: we went on the table, you don't do that. You

953
00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 3: don't do that. And what you're showing is is that

954
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:20,560
Speaker 3: if it's not about me, I don't care. There were

955
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:24,200
Speaker 3: young defensive ends, young defensive players that look up to him,

956
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:27,520
Speaker 3: that that was their shot. They were playing. They were

957
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:30,839
Speaker 3: playing for their career right there. And if some guy

958
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 3: that you don't you've never heard of, gets a sack,

959
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 3: that means a lot. He could be on the practice squad.

960
00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 3: I've seen Jesse Holly make a career because he made

961
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,600
Speaker 3: a play in the last preseason game. And Micah Parsons

962
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:44,919
Speaker 3: is falling asleep because he's bored. That's not a team guy.

963
00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:46,680
Speaker 3: Get him out of here. And that's what they did.

964
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:50,319
Speaker 3: Once that happened, it was over over and all right,

965
00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:51,359
Speaker 3: we gotta we gotta roll.

966
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:51,520
